THURSDAY, JANDAHY 26> 1893: The death of ex-President leaves but one ex-President living, and he will soon re-enter the White i -onse. • • While in the presidential chair, Hayes had the courage to veto the bill for the remonetization of silver. Had Congress been satisfied to listen to his veto, the country would not now be trying to free herself from the slough of silver into which she has cast herself. Postmaster General John Wana maker recently wrote as follows on the subject of good roads: ‘’Looking at it from a postal standpoint, enlarged free delivery, or anything like free delivery, will have to be postponed until there are better facilities of communication through the rural and snarsely settled districts. The experiments that, wo haVe made in 1he smaller towns and villages have proven the practicability of greatly extended free delivery, but without .good roads it must necessarily be limited to the small towns.” The Louisiana Lottery that was so willing to die a natural death, was only 'possuming. It has found a home in Honduras. That government. grants it large rights for a 1 .Till of fifty years. The company is to have the island of Gujaju, to be used in any manner it seesffit. The concession also grants the right to lay a cable from any point on the coast of that country to the United States, the Antilles, or to Europe. There is also a concession for a steamship line from any of the ports v f that country to any port in the world. All articles of the company are to be admitted free of duty, the employes are to be exempt from military duty, and the company is ex- ( mpted from all taxes. The government, in return, is to have free use <-f the cable and steamship lines, and is to receive $1,000,000 in American gold coin and a graduated percentage ( f from 1 to 3 per cent, on the face value of all tickets sold by the company. Rutherford B. Hayes, whose death was recorded the other day in all our papers is a striking illustration of this fact, that true worth and quiet performance of duty will conquer in the end. He brought to the great office of President of the Uniled States a standard of official purity which had not been equalled since 1 he days of the early Presidents, lie refused, to listen to the demands (,f place-seeking politicians. He was a believer in cfVil -service reform and < id much to impress upon bis counf rymen that a public office, is a trust committed to its holder by the great people whom he represents. The i .vil service reform movement was almost unborn at that time and Hayes did not acc omplish so much in actual work done as Some later Presi cents, but his was the more important work because he had to withstand almost alone a current which was sweeping with almost resistless )lower over every occupant of the White House. By his manly course lie brought upon himself the opposi1 ion of the politicians of his own party. A man in a public office can tear a certain amount of villification i ,-om the opposing party as long as I.is own party sustains him, but when I is own party turns against him it is i.ext to impossible for any man to make headway. When the close of 1 is term arrived it was impossible to find a serious mistake in his adminis ration, either in his home or foreign polic y, but he had offended the politicians of the party and he must 1*0 set aside. He hold the view that ‘ be,serves his party best who serves his country best,” and with this idea

he refused to bend to the dictates of the Senators and Congressmen when their ideas were opposed to the best interests of the whole ’ people. It was not until he showed these men that he was not one of them that the storm arose against him. He was compelled to bend to . it, , But it passed over him, and-he has steadily risen in public favor since. And as the history of his administration shall be more and more known his place among our Presidents will be higher and his name will stand out with clearer lustre. Matthias Nauman has been sick for several weeks. E. A. Norman was at Columbus Monday on business. Hamp. Transou made a business trip to North Vernon last Friday. Frank Stapp was out of his store the first of the week on account of sickness. It is thought that the. orphan’s home at Columbus will be opened about Feb. 8th. Elmer Dunlap, who is attending college at Franklin, spent Sunday with his parents at Columbus. S. Swarts left Tuesday to visit several of his brothers who are scattered through Franklin county. Miss Effie Lorts, of Clifford, who has been quite sick for several weeks, was in town Tuesday visiting relatives. County Surveyor Wm. Hays was up Monday running the division line between James Hanley and George Schaefer. Frank Noligh is putting up some fine Ige this week. We never saw clearer ice than that now being taken from the creek. Miss Claude Sader, of Edinburg, who has been visiting friends and relatives in Columbus for some time, returned home Monday morning. Raud Shirley has bought the undertaker’s business at Hartsvillo. Morris Cohce, recently of Edinburg, will have charge of the business for Mr. Shirley. County Auditor George Pence’s plat record shows that during the years since the organization of this county there have been thirty-two towns laid out, platted and inhabited in it. Headache is the direct result of indigestion and stomach disorders. Remedy these by using De Witt’s Little Early Risers, and your headache disappears. The favorite little pills everywhere. S. Stapp & Son. With the opening of spring, Columbus will have an electric, street car line. All that is necessary to start them is to string the trolleywire and start the dynamos. All other work has been done. Mr.and Mrs.-E. A. Norman entertainod at dinner on Wednesday,Rev. Current and wife, Rev. Smith and wife, L. A. Yogler and wife, John Remy and wife, D. A. Robertson and wife, A. P, Dronberger and wife. A man in Illinois the other day found a silver dollar bearing Ri< ‘ much coveted date, 1804. Negotiations were opened with a broker in Chicago and lie received $1,300 for his coin, with which he liquidated the indebtedness on his farm. The new Doxoy hotel at Anderson was destroyed by a terrific natural gas explosion last Monday night. Two persons are supposed to be burned under the ruins. The hotel had recently been refitted at a cost of $30,000 arid was one of the finest in the state. An autopsy showed that th.e cause of Gen. Butler’s death was the bursting of a small blood vessel on the brain, caused by a violent fit of coughing. His brain weighed four ounces more than that of Daniel Webster, who had one of the largest brains on record. For instance, Mrs. Chas. Rogers, of Bay City, Mich., accidentally spilled scalding water over her little boy. She promptly applied De Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve, giving instant relief. It’s a wonderfully good salve' for burns, bruises, Sores, aiid a sure cure for piles. S. Stapp A Sou.

John Phillipy, of Hartsville, was in town last week. Mrs. W. P. Norton, ‘of Columbus, spent the fore part of the week with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. George. Mrs. Baud. Shirley’s mother is seriously ill at the residence of her daughter Mrs. James Moore near Sulphur Hill. The home of Geo. Fellows, at Columbus, was cast under a profound spell of sorrow last Monday morning, when Geo. Fellows, aged sev-enty-three, and his son, William, aged thirty-three, passed away within fifteen minutes of each other. Thb creamery at this place is doing a successful business. They are receiving milk and paying for it at a rate that nets the farmers twentyone cents or over for evei’y pound of butter made from the milk. Every Tuesday is their regular pay day. State Fish Commissioner Denny has sent to this locality several letters asking if any parties here have been violating the fish law by taking fish from under the ice with nets. It is understood that the names of several parties have been sent him. Caroline Trinkley was born in Cincinnati May 6, 1828. She died at Columbus, Monday morning at 5:30, of heart disease, aged G-t years. She was well known here, having resided at Hope for the past thirty years. Her death was quite unexpected.
