Poole has received his appointment as a member of the Medical Board of Pension Examiners of this county. The organ recital given by Miss Williams, at the Presbyterian Church, was very enjoyable, and deserved a much larger audience. Rev. R. M. Dillon has just had published a “Manual of the Presbyterian Church of Greencastle.” It is a pamphlet of 20 pages filled with matter of interest in regard to the church and its work, and is creditable to the congregation. Miss Laura Marsh, well known in this city, was married, on Nov. 29, at the residence of her parents, Dr. and Mrs. H. B. Marsh, Okahumpka, Fla., to Russell W. Bennett. Mr. and Mrs. Bennett will be at home to their friends, after Dec. 15, at Dickison Place, Okahumpka, Fla. One More Year. Dr. Walter has promised his many friends and patients to make one more year’s visits to our city. The Doctor’s friends are delighted and those that are suffering from chronic diseases should be overjoyed, as he has cured more patients from chronic troubles in the last five years he has visited our city than all the doctors combined. His experienoe in hospital and this line of practice will account for his success.

The tenth annual meeting of the Putnam County Teachers’ Association was held in the High School Building, Greencastle, Ind., Nov. 30

and Dec. 1.

The attendaneo was very good and it was estimated that it exceeded that of former years The program which had been printed by the Star-Press was carried out in full. The Association was called to order at 10:15 Friday morning by Pres. R. R. Sinclair, principal of the Fillmore schools. Miss Cyrcnna Brothers was appoint ed Secretary of the Association Prof. O. L. Lyon, of the Greencastle High School, led in devotional exercises. Following this was the President’s address; subject, “The Purpose of the Meeting,” which was listened to with rapt attention. Next was a duet by Misses Gifford and Armstrong. Prof. Howard Sandison’s address on “Rousseau’s Philosophy of Isolation and its Pedagogical Bearing” was very fine and highly complimented by the teachers. Prof. Sandison is Vice-President of the State Normal School at Terre Haute and one of the leading educators of the State. Next, a piano solo by Miss Armstrong. Leo Rodgers read a good paper on “Idealization,” which was followed by “Child Study” by Emma Mont McRae, of Purdue University. Nothing but praise was heard of her work by everyone. Afternoon session Pres. Joseph Swain, of the State University, read a paper on “View of Nature and the Bible,” which was highly instructive and entertaining. C. P. Runyan read a well-prepared paper on “The State and Higher Education.” Prof. Sandison’s second subject was “Instinct, and its Pedagogical Bearing,” which was made so plain that anyone could understand it. He was followed by Mrs. McRae on Literature, who

The Democrats Did It. “Where were the Democarts?” asks the New York Tribune.

At home.

On the day of election five million voters, most of them Democrats, remained at home and failed to vote. Mr. Frederick C. Waite, of Johns Hopkins University, and formerly a statistician of tne Census Bureau, has been studying the returns with interesting results. “To show,” says Mr. Waite, “that the Republican farmers did not vote for Cleveland in 1892, 1 analyzed the election returns, town by town, throughout the rural districts of Nexv York, and discovered that the rural vote for Cleveland was even less in 1892 than in 1888 in every agricultural county in the Empire State. In Ohio it was just the same. Cleveland’s vote in 1892 was less than in 1888 in the rural townships of all the agricultural counties. This year the Republicans have not cast as large a percentage of the full vote as in 1888 in a singleState.” The conclusion is, therefore, that the dissatisfied Republicans in 1892 and the dissatisfied Democrats this year refused to vote. According to Mr. Waite’s figures, the stay-at-home vote in New York has increased from 75,000 in 1888 to 185.000 in 1892 and 425,000 this year; in Pennsylvania, irom 70,000 in 1888 to 230,000 in 1892, and to 400,000 this year. It has increased in Ohio from 40.000 in 1888 to 115,000 in 1892, and to 290,000 this year; in Michigan, from 20.000 in 1888 to 105,000 in 1892, and to 240,000 in 1893 and 1894. South Carolina,when she had50,000 less votes than at present, cast 183,621 votes for Hayes and Tilden. The total vote this year, however, is not much over 60,000, or about one-fourth of the

full vote.

It is the state-at-home party, Mr. Waite shows, which has made such phenomenal gains. “The immense Republican pluralities this year are not the result of an extraordinary Republican vote, but of an exceedingly small Democratic vote. Wisconsin has not polled for the Democratic candidates such a small percentage of her full vote for twenty-five years. In Pennsylvania the Democratic party has not cast on an important election such a small vote for half a century. The astonishing features of the recent election are the same as those of 1892, when 1,000,000 Republican farmers stayed at home, while their Populist brethren cast 1,042,631 votes on the strength of visionary promises. Census and registration statistics disclose ’the fact that this year the stay-at-home vote numbered

about 5,100,000.”

All this hut confirms the view of the Courier-Journal that the Democratic defeat was due to Demotic dissaticfaction some of which was well founded and some of which was baseless) with the Democratic Congress and Administration—well founded with regard to the tariff legislation record, baseless in blindly attributing to the Democrats more of the hard time than their aggravation by the party’s paltering and pottering nurse at Washington.

The Next Legislative Meeting.

The indications are that the next meeting of the Indiana Legislature will bo a memorable one. The lobbyists are already arranging to control legislation. A special says the lobbyists are now concentrating to overturn the various laws enacted during the past 10 years. Among these are the school book law, the general tax law, the Australian election law and the various statutes protecting labor organizations throughout the state. The railroad corporations are interested more particularly in matters of taxation and the laws

affecting the labor question.

The Gas Trust has already organized a powerful lobby, representing millions of dollars of capital stock. They have united with the railroad, banking, school book and all other lobbies, so that when one measure receives favorable action in the next Legislature, the others are bound to. The railroad lobbies have several linterests to consider. Chief among them will he a modification of the present system of taxation. Under the new tax law the values of railroad property were increased from $69,000,000 to $161,000,000, upon which these corporations are now paying taxes. Another laxv xvhich affects railroads seriously and passed by the last Legislature, and is known as the co-employes law. By that enactment railroad are held liable for injuries to employes resulting from the negligence on the part of those employed in the same common service . The passage of this law was fought by the railroad lobbies two years ago and it only passed by a scratch. There is a determination now to get

rid of it.

There will also be another lobby known as the Miners’ lobby, who are bent upon ridding themselves of the laws compelling the payment of miners in money weekly, abolishing the system of “pluck me” stores, also requiring coal to be weighed before being screened. These laws are of the greatest concern to miners and the operators have been endeavoring to have them repealed ever since they became laws. There is another statute in this state which all corporations join in condemning and will join in having repealed. It is that law in relation to the employment of outside detectives to be used for police

purposes.
