A representative of a piano company located in Indianapolis was here Monday. While here he looked up the matter of a building to relocate the factory, as it has been made imperative that they should move out of Indianapolis, for there they have no room to grow unless they put up a large amount of money.

This factory, although small, is manufacturing pianos that are making a reputation for quality in the musical world. They manufacture seven sizes of instruments, ranging in prices from $100 tp $500.

The company proposes to enlarge and sell stock until they have a working capital of $15,000.

Whiskey is at the bottom of the whole business, and the sale thereof will be thoroughly investigated by the grand jury. In its palmiest days Shirley was used to such occurrences and was somewhat accustomed to shooting or cutting scrapes. Some contend that the booze was brought to Shirley from Indianapolis, while there are others who assert that it was procured here." ...

National Adjustable Chair Company Gets Comstock-McKee Factory— Will Reorganize and Increaee Capital—Will Begin Work at Once.

The building and machinery of the bankrupt Comstock and McKee Chair factory on South State street, was sold Friday to the National Adjustable Chair factory proprietors. There was some discussion as to whether the bid of this company was good or not as their bid was a little late in showing up.

A party of Shelbyville men thought they had secured possession of the property with a bid of $1500 and although the local company's bid was a little late the referee in bankruptcy gaVfe them posession. The National Adjustable Company's plant, which was located in this city, burned down recently. J«mes T. Webb aad Will G. Gordon are the principal owners and managers of this company.

They will get to work straightening up their new building and the factory will probably start by the middle of February. They.will start off with a force of twenty or twenty-five men and will engage in the manufacture of tables as tvell as chairs. As business increases they will increase "the capacity of their plant and put on more men. When their factory burned down recently they had many orders ahead, jv

This company's goods have a good reputation in the furniture world for quality and no doubt, in a short time they will be compelled to enlarge their plant. Mr. Webb, upon being interviewed, Friday, by a representative of this paper, stated that in all probability the company would be reorganized and the capital stock increased to give a greater working capital.

The citizens of this city are glad to see this firm start into business again as they are progressive business men and when things get started good will help boost the city and community.

Shirley Scene of Many Free-for-alls Saturday—Calaboose Was Overflowing. Is-

A special from Shirley tells of a hilarious day at the county line town Saturday as follows:

"Something broke loose in Shirley Saturday. It was the wildest day and night that this little old town has experienced in along time. There were four free-for-all fights, two men are still under the care of physicians, the calaboose was overcrowded and everyone deplores the conditions of things. The first scrap occurred during Saturday afternoon between a couple of printers employed in the local newspaper office. "•'Senator' Edmonds, of Vermont, an old-time printer, was struck above the eyes by some one who wore a pair of knucks. He went to the doctor. Later in the day a man named^ipe, living here, 'got his' good and plenty. He also went to a doctor. It was feared at first that both men had been fatally injured, but they will recover. "Following these two scraps there were two others, but no one was badly hurt, although there are all kinds of black eyes still in evidence. Milt Gilbreth, town marshal, had his hands full keeping down trouble and making arrests. The jail here is so small that wall paper had to be torn off to make room for the prisoners. In all five arrests were made Saturday night and it is expected that there will be

Mrs. Viola Banks Passed Away Satur-: day Evening—Had Been Sick Many Weeks—Leaves Husband and Four

Children Ail Grown Funeral Private Monday. Mrs. Viola Banks, age 71 years, wife of Andrew J. Banks, died at 8:30 o'clock Saturday evening at the. family home on North Pennsylvania street. The death was not unexpected as Mrs. Banks had been sick many weeks with a complication ofe ailments.

About six weeks ago she underwent an operation for gall stones, but the. physicians gave no hope of her recovery, telling the family that her death could be expected at almost anytime. Her condition has beencritical and several days ago it was" thought that she could live but a few hours.

Mrs. Banks was a good woman, spoken well of by every one who knew her and she was widely known, having lived here since an early day:: when her husband first began business! here.

She was born in Wayne county. Her parents were Benjamin and* Nancy Harvey. She leaves two* sisters and a brother surviving, one|, sister living at Milton, Ind., one at|^ Washington and a brother in the west. She also leaves as her immediate^, family, a husband, three daughters,^Mrs. John Corcoran, Mrs. M. H.j? Gant and Mrs. N. R. Spencer and one?1 son, Lewis Bank, who lives at the family home. There are six grandchildren.

The funeral occurred Monday a£ 2 f" o'clock at the residence with Rev. C. if. E. Line, of the M. E. church, offlciat- t, ing. The funeral was private.

R. L. Barnard Tells of Progress and: Activity There—Starts Letter Aright,

The following letter from R. L. Barnard at Portland, Ore., will be of

interest to many of our readers: PORTLAND, ORE., JAN. 31,1910, MR. W. S. MONTGOMERY,

GREENFIELD, IND.,

DEAR SIR:— Find enclosed postoffice order for $2.00 for two years subscription to the REPUBLICAN.

The winter here so far has been .V rather severe, having about four weeks of freezing weather, 18 to 20 degrees above being the coldest. Last week and today are warm and spring--like with mud up to our necks, therefore we are all well, healthy and hearty, but eatables are certainly quite high, in fact we have to get on the tall'stumps to reach them.

Portland is growing and spreading equal to gympson weeds in a hog lot. Having covered all the level ground west of the Willamette river, they are now building on top of the heights, 1,200 feet above the river, also the east bank is now solidly built and last summer the march crossed the Peninsula and reached the Columbia river, where the Swift Packing plant now stands opposite Vancouver, Wash. During the last of the month the following plants have also located on this side of the Peninsula, Monarch Lbr. Co., Pacific Car & Foundry Co., National Wood Pipe Co., Pacific Tank Co., Davis Safe & Lock Co., Portland Traction Gas Engine .Co. and Portland Glazed Cement Tile Co. The above companies will employ some 3,500 men, which will mean something for the grocerymen on the Peninsula. —-f

There is also quite as much activity in country property throughout the State and good farm or fruit land sells from $100 to $500 per acre. At the present time two great railroads are jv building side by side down the Deshutes river into central Oregon, hitherto without a railroad. A number of other lines are building in all directions* The lines will in a few years open up vast areas of territory, Mrhich have heretofore been worthless on account of no outlet to the commercial marts for their produce. Irrigation is also opening and making the desert sage brush land heretofore worthless, now the most fertile and productive in the country. This land, originally worth several dollars less than nothing, after the water fc turned on, sells for hundreds of dollars per acre.

Wishing the REPUBLICAN many years of grateful prosperity, we remain Yours truly,

"if

R. L. BARNARD.
