The division in the Republican ranks can not be ignored in the discussion of politics this year. To treat it with silence would be more damaging than to make a clean breast of the question. Honest differences on questions are likely to produce good results if they are discussed in a fair and unselfish manner. The thing for the Republican leaders to keep constantly in mind is that they must be fair and honest in their differences, always keeping in mind that the Republican party is made up of men who agree upon many more questions than they disagree upon, and that that is the basis of the organization. No matter how great the differences between members of the same party, etill they are nearer together than either side is to the opposing parties. What assurance have persons discon -~'T ••*¥***$

tented with the Republican party, that they could get better results from the success of t^e Democratic party? Its leaders cannot unite, even in opposition to the Republican party, how much less could they be expected to unite when the responsibility of initiating and enacting laws is imposed upon it.
It is a mistake for the Democrats to try to sidetrack Mr. Bryan. His ideas are more popular with, the people of the country than than they ever were, even when he was a candidate for president, and today Mr. Bryan is respected more for his integrity and convictions than at any other time in his political career. It is like the fickle leaders of his party to repudiate him simply because he did not have the winning power, or ability to get office.
THE PEOPLE PLEASED WITH THE PROSPECT
A Maxwell business man who was in Greenfield Thursday afternoon, said that he was glad the auto traction line was assured, and that it
would begin operation so soon. He said that the people at Maxwell and all along the the Indianapolis and Newcastle lines within Hancock I county were pleased that they were going to have a direct connection with the county seat without having to make along drive to get there.
Few experimental enterprises receive so much encouragement and assurance as this one has. Everything presages success, and already a demand has arisen asking that the line be extended to Eden on the north and Fountainiown on the south, and it does not require any great stretch imagination to anticipate the time when auto cars will be plying regularly from the I. & C. at Fountaintown on the south, through Greenfield to the Indianapolis and Newcastle line at Maxwell on the north. If there is not business enough between these places, and to Grenfield for an automobile line why talk of business for a traction line? The autos will be running by August 16th, the da j- the Haganbeck and Wallace circus comes to Greenfield.

Marshal Gilbreth is trying the condition on Main street, has begun none too soon, as our Main street is in a horrible condition, and needs someone's attention at once as the winter is coming on, and if there is nothing done to improve its condition, we certainly will be in it for sure. While Shirley's back streets are in as fine a condition as most cities, but, O! you Main street!
Walter S. Ham is arranging to move his family to Iola, Kansas, next Saturday. Inasmuch as this has been the home of his family during their life, it will seem a hard task to leave, while they are going to a fine country, they will find it a very pleasant place to live. They will leave numerous friends and relatives, and will be greatly missed in their home circles. The writer wishes them success.
The M. E. church has closed up with Charley Frash in a purchase of a fine church piano, one built for the occasion, and fully guaranteed in every respect. The make is a "Foley and Williams" piano, made at Chicago, 111. The M. E. Society has long been in need of a musical instrument, and they have secured the right instrument.
George Baughn, of Kennard, well known in this section, has located himself with Evansville Range Company, as their traveling representative in the advertising and exhibiting department, and covers a wide territory.

Married—Harley J. Wilkins to Miss Marie Stevenson last Tuesday morning. The newly wedded couple left on the north bound Big 4 for Warsaw, where they will spend their summer vacation at the different lake resorts. Mr. Wilkins is manager of the office force at the Radiator factory, and Miss Stevenson resided with her mother, who is the hostess at the Radiator Club house in the west part of town. Mr. Wilkins and his wife were formerly residents of Indianapolis.
Mrs. Sarah Pickering, who formerly lived at Shirley, but recently at Grand Rapids, Michigan, is dead. Her death came to the Shirley people very unexpected, and was greatly surprised.
T. B. Cronk, the east side grocer has been very sick with severe cramps in his stomach. He was taken very suddenly last Tuesday and the doctor was called to look after his case, but we hear that he is improving.
H. B. Chew, of Kennard, was in Shirley Tuesday. Mr. Chew has anew "Ford" machine and he can handle it to a queen's taste.
C. W. Bacon, who has charge of the labor gang on the I. N. C. & T. traction line, was, as it appeared to be, seriously hurt at the gravel pit last Saturday. He was confined to his home over Sunday in. a disagreeable condition, but Mb^day he was able to take charge of the force as usual and has been on duty every day since. While at the gravel pit east of Kennard, he was struck in the back in some manner, which rendered him in as it is supposed, critical condition, but after development proved to be of a much less extent.
Lenny Moore has moved into his own house on North Main street, and Ray Sharo is moving into that vacated by Moore, and Mr. Spangler will occupy* the house vacated by Mr. Sharp, which seems to be a general move.

O MOTOR CYCLE IN MAIL DELIVERY
The Results Are Reduced Expenses,
Prompter Delivery and Regu
lar Schedule.
The rural mail carriers are well pleased with the results of their experience in using motor cycles, there are four or five of the Greenfield rural carriers now using them in the delivery of mail. This means of locamotion is less experience, requires less time and makes a more regular or exac&time schedule of delivery of mail.
One carrier said, in speaking of his experience, said that it cost him $22 per month for a horse, to say nothing of the expense on a wagon. He finds that his expense on-a motorcycle is less than ten dollars per month.
Not only are the carriers pleased with the motorcycles but the patrons on the routes are delighted with the improvement it makes in the service or delivery of mail.
One business man in Greenfield who has been observing the return of one carrier who uses a motorcycle, said that the carrier did not vary to exceed three minutes a day in his return from the delivery of his route.
Rain and muddy roads are the worst things the motorcycle delivery has to contend with.

Philip Bruner, Temporary Letter Car
rier, Expects To Take Up the
Study of Medicine.'
Philip Bruner, who was recently appointed temporary carrier at the postoffice, will not continue in the work, as it is his intention to take up the study of medicine, thus following the example of his parents, Dr. Charles K. Bruner and wife, both of whom are physicians.
No man that has ever entered upon the postoffice work here has succeeded more acceptably to the office and patrons than Mr. Bruner. He "caught on," learning the ropes with little apparent effort. He is working the vacation of the regular carriers.

time. Now, why is it? Do the men eat more or are they accustomed to less at home. W. S. King, the baker, sold 300 loaves of bread above his ordinary demand before 9 o'clock. All this was to supply threshers. Loads of groceries left local stores for the country and piles of meats were prepared for these meals.
Mr. King not only supplies the country demand out of the city, but from Fountaintown, Charlottesville and several other places where he has agencies. The coming of the cir: cus this month will give him a big day's work, as he will furnish the bread for the dining tent for two meals.
