The sun smiled as he gazed on the fair land, of America last Friday. From the time he shot his first level beams across our eastern coast, till his last ray touched the golden gate he looked upon scenes of rejoicing. The air was cool and bracing and the gentle breeze bore upon its bosom many a starry emblem that had been unfurled in honor of the first landing of Columbus upon these western shores. Had It been possible, the king.of day would doubtless have recalled a scene upon which he gazed four centuries ago on a little island near our eastern coast. Three small vessels which for days had been tossed upon the waves of the blue Atlantic, lay at anchor sear the shore. A little band of Spaniards led by one who bore an air of dignity solemnly stepped ashore while a group of dusky natives gazed in sim-ple-hearted wonder at the strange sight. There the strangers planted a rude cross and kneeling, offered thanks to God for granting them this great discovery. Then the leader repeated a few words which to the natives were wholly unintelligible, but which they soon learned to their sorrow meant the claiming of the land by the pale-faced strangers. Such was the scene which the great light of day would have recalled, and .such was the scene which the thousands of children all over our land were celebrating by their festivities last Friday. In Hope, the exercises were under the charge of Prof. H. H. Hacker, ably assisted by his corps of teachers. The scholars had been given a half holiday in the morning. In the afternoon, they gathered in their rooms to prepare for the exercises. Marching out, file after file, they formed a hollow square about the pole which had been raised the day before for the flag, which was the gift of the pupils. After reading the Presidents proclamation, the stars and stripes were unfurled and floated proudly upon the breeze. Instantly the children, joined by the visitors, raised their voices in three cheers for the flag; then at a signal from their principal, every hand was raised in salute, and in perfect unison, they repeated the words: “I pledge allegiance to my flag and the Republic ter which it stands, one nation, indivisible, -with liberty and justice for all." It was a touching scene. Talk of American patriotism being dead! Never! So long as children can be taught to honor and and protect the flag we need fear no future. The school joined in the song, “America,” followed by “Rally round the flag,” sung by the Grand Army boys. Joseph Carter delivered a short, but interesting address, and the school and visitors adjourned to the school room to complete the exercLses. Two rooms thrown together were crowded to their utmost capacity and then failed to accomodate all who desired to hear the program which was performed as follows: Prayer Rev. Wm. H. Vogler.

We 'copy the following from the Greensburg Saturday Review of Get. 22d, and we hope our old soldier boys will read it and profit thereby: Sardinia, Ind., Oct. 21, 1882. I have been a Democrat all my life, and have voted for every candidate for President on that ticket since 1 reached my majority, but it seems to me the time has come for me, in my own interest, to make a change. Having served my country as a soldier, the soldiers’ interests are my interests; and as the Democratic party and its candidate for President, Grover Cleveland, have become so openly opposed to the soldiers and to the pension system, I deem it time for me and all others who fought for the flag to withdraw our support from the Democratic party and give it to the Republicans. As an evidence of the Democratic party’s attitude toward the soldier I here quote from an editorial in the Indianapolis Sentinel of Not. 18, 1890; “The Democratic House ought to ‘have a fit’ when it faces the proposition to pay this enormous sum, and one effect of the fit ought to be to extend this burden on the taxpayers no further. There is a limit to human endurance, and pension grabbers are getting very close to it.” And this from theLouisville Cour-ier-Journal of Aug. 11, 1892: “It is a job from one end to the other, the more iniquitous because, whilst levying tribute upon the masses for the benefit of the classes, it is supplemented by a steadily increasing pension list, looting the treasury to the tune of one hundred and fifty millions a year, two-thirds of which go to the support of the coffee-coolers and camp-followers, and other rod-nosed patriots that loaf about the doggeries and brothels of the country, swearing one for another, toward an ultimate agrarianism as corrupt and corrupting as ever existed in the world.” And this slur from President Cleveland’s message vetoing the pension of Alfred Denny, of Preble county, O.: “The number of instances in which those of our soldiers who rode horses during the war were injured by being thrown forward upon saddles indicate that those saddles were very dangerous contrivances. ” These taken as the utterances of representative Democratic journals and Grove? Cleveland himself are enough, it seems to me, to show the Union soldiers that they have no friends in the Democratic party. The declaration ©f <he last Democratic national convention on the tariff question and its plank promising the repeal of the ten per cent, tax on State banks are, as I view the situation, diametrically opposed to the country’s welfare. Knowing that this country is now enjo3 r ing the most prosperous era it ever knew, and having had some experience in my younger days With “wild-eat” currency, I deem it my sacred duty to cast my ballot with the party that favors protection to American laborers and home industry and has given to the country the'best financial system on.earth, and shall therefore cast my vote for Gen. Benjamin Harrison and Gov. Chase, the soldiers’ ct-mrades and friends, and for protection and sound currency. Giles Gant.

Learn to Vote. The important thing to do as the election approaches is for each voter to study carefully the instructions for voting. Do not feel sure that you know how until you are sure you understand the instructions. Do not lose a vote through over-confi-dence. The plan is really very simple—so simple, indeed, that one is ' surprised that it is no more complicated. Be sure to let your ballot dry after stamping it. Read carefully the instructions printed elsewhere in this paper, act accordingly and you will make no mistake. A good way to vote is to stamp once, and only once, in the square containing the eagle, ami nowhere else on the ticket. Dry your ticket before folding it. Remember the date, Nov. &d and 3d.

Hope is a live town of 1,600 inhabitants, situated on the C., H. & G. R. R., a branch of the Big Four, with two trains daily each way. Our nearest point to a flouring mill of any note is Columbus, fifteen miles distant. Our lands are fertile and produce more wheat per acre, average, than any fields in Indiana. Our mills which burned here recently were the largest and best equipped of any in the county. It is also a good location to buy grain. Mr. Nading, the present and only grain dealer at this place, has secured an interest in the elevators at Shelbyville, and will soon transfer his business to that place.
