This week the Republican greets its readers at the threshold of its second year of existence. Last week completed the first year, this week opens the second. The past year has been one of success much beyond the anticipation of the friends of the paper. There is always some doubt about the opening of a newon terpri.se, but whoa once the new born has shown sufficient hardihood to endure the storms of business life, new friends come to it by the score. Such has been the year's history of the Republican. The paper has claimed and won an assured place in the community. It stands constantly for the higher elements in the community and upon these it relies for its continued success. During the coming'year we expect' to add features which will further increase the interest of the paper and during the summer we expect to have a weekly report from the World’s Fair, a subject in which every American is interested just now. ‘‘Nothing succeeds like success,’ - is the familiar saying again illustrated by the year’s history, and with a confidence born of experience the paper enters its second year gxpecting yet more hearty support during the coming twelve months. With the best wishes to all friends and patrons, I am Respectfully The Publisher. Gil Shanklin, who took his stand with head thrown back and mouth thrown open, under the dangling treasury plums, as early as last November, is getting a little stiff of neck and-dry of throat, but he must keep it up for at least two months longer, by which time the survival of the hungriest,if not the fittest,may have thinned the ranks. —Shclbyville Democrat. , c The breaking up of the winter is the signal for the breaking up of the system. Nature is opening up the pores and throwing off refuse. DeWitt's Sarsaparilla is of unquestionable assistance in the' operation. S. Stapp' & Son. It is a fact that nearly all diseases ,h<Av thair'origiri in stomach and bowthem healthy, take Melol.

Rominger has just received a new spring stock of ladies’ dress goods. Sure to please; they can’t help it because they are all new and the latest styles. As Judge Somers and Uncle Sam are in your roach this season, maybe for the last time, and at lower prices than any horses of their breeding over stood in this State, breeders should keep their eyes on these fellows. They are both tried breeders, both sires of speed. Here you get what makes the selling horse, for there is a bigger boom on Blue Bull stock to-day than at any other previous time. I have been asked several times why Frank Felsberg was spitting his venom at me.. My answer is this: Take a man who is so lost to common decency that ho must be slurring some one and a man who will curse and damn everybody and everything that docs not agree with his idea of things, and will resort to some lowdown, undermining, dirty article in the newspapers to do his fellow citizens an injury, that man will forever hate those he has thus tried to injure. A few years since, there was an article in the Columbus Republican intended to injure myself and ,my family and another gentleman and his family. He and I went to the -editor of the Republican and demanded his authority for the article. Mr. Brown told us that Frank Felsberg had given it to the local editor, Mr. P. p. Watts, and that Felsberg had vouched for tha* truth of the article. When we demanded of Mr. , Felsberg a retraction, he wrote and signed in Hie presence of John A. Miller, Philip Spaugh and myself an 1 article retracting the whole thing i and Sieving the article-was a lie of j which Mr. Brown said Felsberg was j the- author. Now this is no idle street talk. I have the article which he signed in my possession at ! this time. E, A. Normam.

Bad complexion indicates ’an unhealthy stale of the'system. DeWitt’s Little Early Risers are pills that will correct this condition. They act on the liver, they act on the stomach, they act on the bowels. Stapp & Son. I had not missed a winter for eight years without suffering severely from rheumatism until 1 tried K.E.N.T.S. It was the first and only remedy I ever found to help me. Have used it at times for the last three years. It never disappoints. One' to three bottles always does the work. —Geo, Schaefer. "Hope, March I, 1893'. Stapp & Son, Agts. John Cage, of Kokomo, is the owner of a very fine filly, t-wo years old, April 5, 1893.

She is sired by Armstrong 4203, dam by a branded Mustang pony. He has been offered £500 .for her. Armstrong is proving himself quite a breeder of speed.
