Many a Democrat is mourning the fact that he cast his tfote for Cleveland last fall. A rout 6,000 pensioners have been suspended under the present rules. It is expected the number will reach 75,000 before the work is completed. Senator Vest says the Sh#rman Jaw can be repealed if the people insist on it. Where has the Senator been for the last sixty days? Or, whom does ho call the people? The weeds and gfass in the square have been cut down,'removing the wilderness appearance of our public park (?). Now if we had a civilized fence and a modern hitching rack the barbarous condition of two weeks ago would be removed.

-The authorities had the square ( leaned up last week and improved its appearance very much. With due regard to the aesthetic qualities cl the old fence it was left unchanged. Not a crook was straightened, not a wrinkle removed, and its curving lines now stand out in stronger light by contrast with the newlycleaned square. It is pretty bad when Congressman Holman turns his back on a measure of retrenchment; but he uoes Just that thing about Hoke inuith’s wholesale posion-stopping policy. According to a Cincinnati aper he ‘'pronounces the whole thing a ‘deni shame’.” Now the policy must be desperately vicious. Eoby has become the synonym for brutal contests and prize lights since the law wuseuacted ,by a Democratic legislature to stimulate contests in athletic skill, and a Democratic governor is in power to execute laws on the- statute books. It is a pity to see our state reduced to i he low position hold-by Louisana but such is the case. How long will Boosters suffer it? ‘'Poor old Ini i jb!” Comptroller Eckels’ statement ls to the number and character of failures among the national banks i ; both instructive and reassuring. 1 1 is lead of a couple of hundred banks Laving gone to smash only 105 out oI a total of 3,785 have closed their i oors.

There is nothing whatever in it to warrant alarm There is no food in it for 1 ic calamity howlers. This is a big ( uni try, a rich and prosperous country.

H. & G. train to Columbus Monday morning was wrecked at Nortons burg. It was slowing up for the station when the front truck of the second car from the engine jumped the track and was torn off. This let the bumpers down on the track and tore up the track for a hundred feet breaking ties and bending the rails all out of shape and piling up throe or four cars. The wrecking train was sent for and arrived about four o’clock. The track was cleared and relaid during the night and theMonday night’s train up from Columbus passed hero about 3:30 o’clock Tuesday morning. The passengers were taken on to Columbus in the only box car which was ahead of the wreck.

Did Vuu Know About 'rilin' That there is in force on the statute books of Indiana a law whic h provides that “whoever overdrives, overloads, drives when overloaded, overworks, tortures, torments, deprives of necessary sustenance, cruelly beats, mutilates or cruelly kills, or causes or procures to be overdriven, overloaded, tortured, tormented, deprived of necessary sustenance, cruelly beaten,mutilated or cruelly killed, any animal; and whoever, having the charge or custody of any animal, either as owner or otherwise inflicts needless cruelty upon the same, or cruelly and unnecessarily fails to provide the same with proper food, drink, shelter or protection from the weather,” or “who cruelly drives or works the same when unfit for labor, or who shall carry or cause to be carried upon any vehicle or otherwise, any living animal having the feet or legs tied together, or in other cruel and inhuman manner, or shall abandon any maimed, sick, infirm or disabled animal to die in any public place, or who shall carry or cause to be carried any living animal upon any vehicle, or otherwise, without providing suitable racks, cars, crates or cages, in which such animals may stand or lie down during transportation and whilst awaiting slaughter,” such person shall be liable to $200 fine or sixty days’ imprisonment, or both. Paste this on your conscience. It is a good law for man and beast. We have received the annual catalogue of Indiana University for 1803, the announcement of courses of Instruction and Faculty for 1893-94,and the. Inaugural address of President Swan. There were in attendance during the past year 572’students, 22 of whom were graduate students. Besides these there were 23 nonresident graduate students. Work will be offered next year in 17 coordinate Departments by 43 Professors and Instructors. At the recent commencement. degrees were conferred in course of 90 persons, 15 of which were advanced degrees. The Institution has doubled its attendance in the last four years, and its efficiency is more, than twofold. A notable- feature of the Faculty of 1893-94 is that 34 of the best American and European Universities are represented in it. Several instructors have been added, so the head Professor will be able to present more advanced work than ever before. BUTCHER'S OUTFIT FOR SALE.

TftE SAVER’S STOCKING. Prospect That it Will Be Opened For a Chicago Trip. Tho Big Poor Takes Action That Will Make Papular Rates. PRESIDENT INGALLS' REASONS FOR A STEP THAT IS RADICAL, It May Lend to a Ride to Hie World’s Fair 'I'll a I 1m Olioaper Tuan Staying at Home. It is one of the potent factors in these times of tight money that the historic “Stocking Bank” has come into more general use than has been the case for generations, if, indeed, ever in the country’s history so many small depositors before withdrew their savings from the banks and hid them in thp home or placed them in safe depositories. With returning confidence these sums are finding their way back to circulation but the process is slow and tedious. The. public duty of stimulating this return to circulation had its weight, President M. E. Ingalls said last evening, in causing the Big IJour authorities to accede to a demand coming from all parts of the system for a World's Fair” rate that would be available from all points on all divisions. General Passenger Agen t D. B. Martin's announcement of an open low rate to Chicago is the result of a conference between himself and the president held yesterday. Mr. Martin had satisfied himself and assured Mr. Ingalls that the existing agreements had been secretly violated by rivals, and the determination reached was to give tho gen-* oral public the benefit of a low round-trip rate, good for 10 days. Hitherto the low rates have only been in force on certain days an d under tho auspices of societies, schools, etc. The excursionist from tho smaller towns had to pay his fare to the starting point of the party. Now, he may cake the train at his own door, and have the same advantages as to rates as the special excursionist, even if there is only “one of him,” and he may go and come at his leisure at that.

This may lead to what is known as a “rate war.” If so, so much the better for the traveling public in general, and the Chicago-bound man and woman in particular. The Big Four formally notified its competitors yesterday of its intentions to apply these new rates. All that honesty, experience and skill can do to produce a perfect pill, has been employed in making DeWitt's Little Early Risers. The result is a specific for sick headache, biliousness and constipation. Stapp & Son. COLUMBUS. HOPE & GREENSBURG Westbound' STATIONS. | East bound 95 : 93 | I 92 I 94 l» mam! .
