The attendance was better than at the former one, but it did not rank up to the Democratic idea of a mass convention either in attendance or enthusiasm. Charlie Case acted as bellweather, and the flock followed with out any trouble, from beginning to

On March 4, 1896, at Paragon, Ind., Mr. A. J. Lee, of Jackson township, this city, and Miss Nettie Burton, of Paragon, were united in marriage, Rev. W. H. Wiley, of Bloomington, performing the ceremony^. Mr. Lee is one of Putnam’s bright young man, having been a most successful teacher for several years, and is entitled to and receives the congratulations of a host of friends in securing so sweet a life’s partner; the bride is a daughter of one of Morgan county’s best, most prosperous and prominent farmers, and is fortunate in securing so manly a bridegroom. Mr. and Mrs. Lee will make their home at Paragon. ALL O. K. County Finances Investigated and Every Item Found Correct.

but a sufficient amount exists to seriously injure anyone whose constitution is a little below par. All of these drugs can be used for a time by perfectly healthy people, but if their use is persisted in long enough, the human body finally gives evidence of the effect of the steady poison, and many people who do not know this fact die because of their unnatural habits. If you could use a hot drink in the morning made from the nourishing grains that nature has provided for the use of man, it would satisfy your appetite and

A wholesome, delicious hot drink of the kind that old doctor referred to is found in Postum Coffee, made from grains by the Postum Cereal Co. Lim. of Hattie Creek, Mich.; it brews the rich colcr of Java or Mocha; has a grand fragrance and the pungent taste demanded by all coffee drinkers. No poisonous alkaloids are found here, and man is only safe when he sticks to nature’s food, f irnished by the Creator, prepared in a number of different ways, to be sure. Ruddy h< a'th and red blood will follow the dkcontinuance of unnatural drinks and the substitution t herefor of the Ce.eal food-drink. Its use will tell the facts more plainly in the J body than words can be made to express ! Grocers furnish it and experience teaches that it goes about three times as far as coffee.

In September 1895 the Board of County Commissioners entered into a contract with John H. Hunter, an expert accounant, which said con-
tract was in effect as follows: “I will examine the books, vouch-
ers and settlements in the various offices of your county, and ascertain
whether or not there is any money j 0ro ' cerB rurnigh it
due your countj' from the State, or any other source, on account of any errors or omissions and in the event I find anything due the county, I will collect the same without any cost whatever to the county, save and except my charges as herein set forth. And for my services I will charge you a sum equal to one-half of all money collected by me. Payment to be made to mo as fast as I make collec-
tions.
On the 4th day of March, 1896, J. H. Hunter, by Smith and Bell, his employed accountants, made report to the Board of County Commissioners, which said report was received and placed of record, and reads as fol-
lows:
“Pursunt to contract heretofore made with your county, I have just caused an examination of your settlements with the State to be made by gentlemen skilled in public accounting, to ascertain whether or not any money is due your county by reason of errors or omissions in these semiannual settlements. I beg leave to say that our efforts have been in vain, and that your county has maintained an unbroken lino of accuracy in making these setttlements seldom
attained.
I can not commend at all times the manner in which your accounts have been kept, for in many instances entries have been made that are misleading and apparently erroneous, but which in the end produce the
proper result.
You have tho best system of book-
keeping that 1 know of now in use in your.Auditor’s and Treasurer’s offices, and if this system is kept in its entirety without too much attempt at condensing and abbreviating, which has been the chief fault all along,
there is little danger of error. The files in the Auditor’s office are
in bad shape and need to be arranged and indext d and more care taken in future to preserve them in systematic
order.”
There is no fulsome flattery in this report; what the accountants deemed worthy of criticism was criticised, and that worthy of commendation was commended. Tiie point worthy of consideration and to which the attention of our readers is especially called, is the fact that this county “has maintained an unbroken line of accuracy seldom attained.” Wo hope the Banner-Times will give this matter place in its columns, and thereby correct the false impressions it lias been giving its readers for years past, by intimating that there is something crooked in the

Compare the Records.
The campaign of 1896 is opening up, and the records of the two great parties in the decade last past are worth examination and consideration, says the Sun. Tiie Democratic
party has done these things:
It has passed the mechanic’s lien
law.
It passed the law giving laborers a lien upon the product of their labor for wages and material furnished. It passed the law protecting labor organizations. It passed the law pro\ ding for the safety' of miners and the proper ventilation of mines. It passed a law constituting eight hours a day’s labor in public cm
ployment.
It passed the law prohibiting the blacklisting of employes. It pstssed the law prohibiting “pluckme” stores. It passed the law prohibiting tho importation of Pinkerton detectives. It passed the law aga’ust the importatian of alien or foreign laborers. It enacted the school-book law. It enacted laws to purify elections. It enacted the Australian ballot
law.
It devised and passed the present
tax law.
It passed the new fee and salarly
law.
It enactod the Barrett improve-
ment law.
It passed the state board of chari
ties law.
t:ie other side. Every one of the above mentioned laws, now admitted to be valuable, was opposed to the last by the Republican party. It fought the school book law with almost disperation. It arrayed itself against the labor
reform laws.
It opposed the 8 hour day law It was the champion of Pinkertou
detectives.
It fought all the laws to purify

It arrayed itself like a stone wall against the Australian ballot law, which it regarded as an attack upon its inalienable right to buy votes.

the villagers could pick out their own mail. Over 4,000 undelivered letters with unbroken seals, some of them postmarked twenty years ago, were
delivered.”
Of course the Motweilers were republicans. The father was appointed while Grant was president and the daughter succeeded him when Arthur was in the white house. Motweiler was a republican Nasby who outNasbied the creation of Locke’s brain and his daughter was a worthy scion
of such stock.
The wonder is that such a state of things could exist for so long a time without discovery and correction. The village of Georgetown must be peaceful and innocent to a degree most extraordinary in this progressive age and wide-awake land. That floor, with its accumulating mass of letters and papers, could not have been entirely hidden from the eyes of the public, and it could not have failed to awaken a spirit of inquiry in the minds of a people of average alertness. The villagers must certainly have been aware of the fact that they were not getting their newspaper before “forty cart loads” of them had accumulated o.i the floor of a room of considerable dimensions. And when expected letters never came the mass of mail matter five feet deep on tliat floor must have excited suspicion in tiie minds of anxious ones wondering why no word came from absent friends and relatives. Yet more than a quarter of a century rolled away before any investigation
was made.
What was the postoffico department doing all these years? If it received complaints why didit not inves tigate Why did it not investigate even if it received no complaints? Has the department made a practice of assuming that every-thing is right and permitting offices to run on for years without examination? We have had five different presidents and not less than seven postmasters general since Motweiler sire was appointed, yet never until now has tiie Georgetown postoffice been inspected. If we were sure that the Georgetown case was the only one of the kind tiie matter might be lightly dismissed. But it is reasonable to suspect that there maybe great numbers of cases of gross maladministration when such a case as this can escape expoeura and correction for so long a time. This instance is by uo means encouraging to those who wish the government to enlarge tho sphere of its activities and engage in business on a vastly greater scale.

Newe Which is G-ood News to
Women.
It is a fact that our women who suffer from female complaints and are consequently weak, tired, nervous, dragged-out and full of pains and aches, do not have the same opportunity to he cured as do the residents of the great cities where the most successful specialists in female diseases reside. In other words, our women are debarred from seeking a cure by the great and skilled physicians owing to the cost of travel to the large city and the high fees charged by such
specialists.
Here, therefore, is a chance for the sick and suffering women of our communitv which should not be lost. Dr. Greene of 35 West 11th St , New York City, who has the largest practice in tho world and who is without doubt the most successful specialist in curing female complaints, offers to give free consultation by mail to all women suffering from these distressing weakness, discharges, pains and irregularities. You have the privilege of consulting Dr. Greene by letter describing your complaints and he will, after carefullv considering your condition, send a letter fully explaining all your symptoms, telling you everything about your complaints so plainly that yon will understand exaclly what nils you. He will also give you his advise, based upon his vast experience and wonderful success in treating such cases, as to just what to do to get cured. All this will cost you nothing and you can thus have consultation with the best-known ami acknowledged most successful specialist in the world without leaving home and at no expense whatever. The Doctor is the discoverer of that greatest of al' known medicines. Dr. Greene’s Nervura blood and nerve remed v . and he has discovered many other most valuable remedies.

They were the first to make brqoms by machinery; the first to put up seeds in little packages; the first to manufacture cut nails.
