Grant Price An Editor.

We have received a copy of the Bituminous Record, published at Philipsburg Pa., and in glancing over the editorial page, we noticed the name of Grant Price, well known here, as its editor. The paper is a seven column folio, filled with choice write-ups and ads, and from present indications, the paper will prosper. Mr. Price had a position in the government printing office during President Harrison's administration, Jbut a "just as good" Democrat printer came along who wanted a "sit" and as Grant is a thoroughbred Republican, of course the Demmy got his job. Grant is a practical printer and we can recommend him to the citizens of Philipsburg, as a live, energetic young man and bespeak for him a prosperous career in his new position as editor.

Great Honor to 3Ir. Beveridge.

The Union League Club, of Chicago, has shown appreciation of Indiana in inviting Mr. Albert J. Beveridge to respond to the toast "George Washington" at the club's banquet, Feb. 22. Mr. Beveridge's theme will be something like this, perhaps "Washington—The light of his love for our general country illumes our problems of to-day." Associated with Mr. Beveridge in sharing the post prandial honors showered by Chicago's great political club will be Archbishop Ireland, President Ingalls, railroad magnate, and other eminent men. One thousand men generally sit down to these great banquets of the Union League Club, and in the past Chauncey M. Depew, John S. Wise, Senator Allison, Supreme Court Justices Harlan and Brewer and others have furnished eloquence. Never before has Indiana been represented.—Indianapolis Journal.
