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-con fidenco. The plan is really vary simple—so simple, indeed, that one is surprised that it is no more compli--cated. Be sure to let yourtoallot dry after stamping l-t. 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, and nowhere else on the ticket. Dry your ticket before folding it. HALLO HTK’ILW. Twelve hundred years ago, Pope i Boniface IV instituted the festival of All Saints, or All Hallows, Nov. 1st in commemoration of all the saints and martyrs to whom no particular -day bad been assigned. And going back yet farther the Greeks held a festival upon Nov. 1st in which mys- - terious games were played. There are many charms and devices which ■have been invested with peculiar virtue by the imagination. The same •spirit of harmless revelry has characterized the occasion ever since it was instituted. But it is particularly with love charms that the games •on Hallowe’en night have to do. The ■essences and principles of true love suffer few changes, and are only glad of the chance to repeat the frivolities of others who are older, and the old games are played over an each succeeding Hallowe’en. For ednturies there has been an understanding between maidens and burning chestnuts —a treaty, as it were “that was never signed and never broken.” How and why it is that the right chestnut invariably bursts first may seem strange to those who have never been in love —and even doubted — but those who have been touched by the breath of the tender passion rely on the chestnut as they mighton fate herself. And here is a charm of more modern origin. Let the young lady who is in love on this night retike to some convenient spot behind an adjacent wood-shed, pull nearly all her hair out, straighten it lightly, and as the wind takes it off in a swirl, repeat these words: Like snowflakes, drift adown the air To him who shall my husband be. V7hatever direction the hair takes therein dwells the unfortunate man! Thcs and a Hundred other familiar pastimes such as eating apples and counting the seeds, biting the candle, naming the bed-posts, then without speaking, eating or drinking retire to dream of the true lover, are common entertainments for the evening when all sorts of witches and hobgoblins are abroad. David B. Hill is far from being I sanguine of Democratic success. He says: “It is true we have carried Now York State for our state tickets for the last seven years, and last fall we carried it by lifty thousand majority but we must recollect that last year the total vote cast was 157,225 votes .less than polled in 1888. The Republicans seem to possess a reserved strength in presidential elections, which they exhibit at no other election, and which requires our greatest efforts to overcome)”

RAH! BOOM! Monday’s Rally a Howling Success! ALL OTHER RALLIES ECLIPSED. The Town Decked in G-ay Colors. ILLUMINATED AT NIGHT BY HUGE BON-FIRES. PRINCIPLES) OF REPUBLICANISM ABLY DISCUSSED Before Large and Imterentfid Andf-cnccs-“G wine to Git 0ar.” The Republican rally last Monday was easily the most successful that has been held here during the campaign. It was the closing rally in eastern Bartholomew county. Early in the morning it became apparent that the enthusiasm was to be unbounded. The hurrying to and fro of mounted messengers indicated that business of importance was on band. Business houses and residences were trimmed in the red, white and blue of ivliich Americans are justly so proud. The firing of anvils proclaimed the news to the country around, and from all sides the good farmers, leaving their corn gathering, came to swell the crowd for this closing rally. Wagon load after wagon load of rails and wood were unloaded at each corner of the square. Every horse in town was in demand. Even the goats were decorated with Republican banners and driven about the town. The morning was the time of preparation. Soon after noon there was “mounting in hot haste.” Gallant youths and maidens fair, arrayed in gay costumes and mounted on every available steed, even to bicycles, formed the line of march. Headed by the Hope band, they paraded through the town. Everywhere they were greeted by enthusiastic crowds until the time for the address, when the procession broke up. The address of the afternoon was made by Hon. W. S. Ksnworthy, of Iowa. It was the greatest effort of the campaign at this place. He had no trouble in keeping the attention of his audience, and many said; “Why, I could have listened to him two hours longer and not been weary. ” He discussed the issues of the campaign in a bold, fearless manner. His words carried conviction with them. He will be welcomed again to Hope, should he ever return. Almost before it was dark, the drum corps was out calling together the crowd for the evening i-ally. The clouds which had threatened rain withheld their shower, and before the evening was gone no., a cloud was to be seen in the star-lit dome. Pit prophecy of Republican progress in the present campaign! The brass band and the drum corps again led the line of march. Bou-fires were lighted, giving the town about the square the appearance of day. Fireworks added their charm. The vast crowd filled 'the side-walks, goodnaturedly beut on pursuing their own ways of pleasure. Here and there they went, each seeking to make the evening more interesting until the time for the speaking arrived, when a part assembled hear the entrance to Arcade Hall to hear C. F. Remy, of Columbus. Mr. Eemy's position so near the thickest part of the moving crowd was a little unfortunate, but in a few moments he had gained their attention and held it for a two hours’ address. He said he was glad to address so

large an audience in this, his home township. He -felt grateful as a young man anxious to succeed, and he was glad for the party which he represented, because it showed the spirit which was abroad among Republicans. His address was on the tariff question. By illustration and argument he showed the strength of the Republican position on the question. Thus closed the best rally vfo have had this year by any party. Republicans are closing up the ranks and on next Tuesday they will present a solid front as they deposit their ballots with only the eagle stamped, and stamped but once. Now, let evei-ybody go to Columbus next Saturday to the final roundup of of the campaign; then be sure yeu are prepared to cast an intelligent ballot on next Tuesday, and Republican success will crown the effort. NOTES. Everybody was pleased With Kenworthy’s speech. Charlie Rtmy got in some good licks for protection. The singing by the glee club added ■ to the enjoyment of the day. A popular placard Monday read as follows: “Plant Gourds—Cooper ” “Theboy, O where was he?” The one who was tearing down the bonfires. One man says: “I gained lots of information from Remy’s speech Monday night.” Wasn’t it funny to-see a red-hot Democrat object to lighting the bonfires. Afraid it would get too hot. The glee club was composed of Dr. Newton, Ed. Miller, Chas. Porter, Chauncy Dronberger, Curt Smiley, Harry Leeds, Will Kennedy and Clyde Danner. Ill I Fiouring ill, In this, the best locality in Indiana. Hope is a live town of 1,F>00 inhabitants, situated on the C., H. & G. R. R., a branch of the Big Pour, 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 latgest 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 busi-ness-to that place.
