CORRESPONDENCE.

BLACKFORD. —Hurrah for Schley! Santiago is ours. —The weather is somewhat cooler since the recent rain. —John dagger buried his infant child last Monday. —This is a good year for prairie chickens, —The farmers in this vicinity have plenty to eat and to sell. —Again we shout, “Hurrah for Schley!” —Mrs. John Marlatt, who has been sick so long, is somewhat better at the present writing. —The oats are falling fast, five different binders are running within one-fourth mile of each other. —The recent rain was like a gold mine to the miser; it done the corn lots of good. —Chris Margenegg, jr., of north of Blackford, who was reported sick last week, is no better. —John W. Hurley says he wants a divorce, not from his wife, but from a large boil which is attached firmly to his wrist. —The wind storm did some damage up around Blackford, mostly to the apples. It shook a good many of the trees. —lt is time now for pack peddlers to be coming around Nubbin Ridge. Saw one pass through here last week. —Thomas Price, who lives south of Blackford, is very sick at the present writing. He is suffering with an abcess.

WEST CARPENTER. r- ” —A fine rain visited this section last Sunday and corn and pastures were greatly benefitted. —The farmers are all running their binders from early morn till late at night in order to head off the army worm. —Our old stock buyer, John Hudson, is still on deck, and if you have any kind of stock to sell just call on him, he can do you good. —The army worm has reached this locality, and it is stated by some of our farmers are doing much damage in some of the oat fields. * —Preaching every two weeks at the Bowdy school house, by Rev. A. P. DeLong of Goodland. All are cordially invited to come and hear him. Charlie Goodrich of Chicago, son of Frank Goodrich for many years a resident of this township, is visiting his grandmother and family, Mrs. Goodrich, of this neighborhood.

We are informed that our old friend, Benj. Thomas, who moved from our vicinity last spring to a ranch in Wheatfield tp., will come back here and run his threshing machine. We welcome thee, Benjamine. -rNow, Mr. Editor, in conclusion of these few lines of items, for my first attempt to The Democrat—l don’t remember whether we ever had a pure and fullfledged democratic paper in Jasper county before or not —but as the old saying is, “a tree is known by the fruit it bears,” and we trust The Jasper County Democrat will stand the test and that a general revival of democracy will breakout during our next campaign. Now, as ,I might tramp someone’s toes, I will close.

SHARON. —Rev. J. D. Carson preached at the Sharon school house last Sunday.

—John Harris was a business caller in Remington last week. —Mrs. Nat Hensen is on the sick list at present. —Mrs. John Brown has been quite sick for the past few weeks. —Messrs. Hunt and Blake of Remington, were callers in our midst Sunday evening. —The welcome rain has come at last but the oats cutting is retarded considerably. —Grant Daley, who has been wrestling with the measles for the past week, is around again. —Miss Maude Daley has a severe attack of measles, with a Rensselaer M. D. in attendance. —Spain has gotten hold of a dose of McKinley pudding and Uncle Abe will get a dose before Christmas. We will give receipt, which is as follows: 3 gallons of confidence, 1 pk of international agreement, 1 qt. of gold standard, 7 table spoonfuls of prosperity, 2 quarts of sound money, 1 lb. of protection. Boil with 12 months of no work and eat while hot. —The republican farmers of Jasper county heretofore have always staid by their party through thick and thin, but now they are getting on their thinking caps. They find that the oppression is becoming burdensome and it is time for a check of the lavish waste of money, and they intend to support the democratic party or party of reform at the coming election. —Just now we are enjoying true republican prosperity, with the highest tariff ever imposed on the American people, and a complete revenue failure. All the necessaries of life are coming high and farm products dropping. The farmer can see 15-cent oats in sight with one-half of the grain in sight which they had when they were worrying over democratic times.

—Many a farmer’s taxes in Jasper county exceed his net income, yet those imposters are still on the go and tell the farmer that his burden is already heavy but that it should be heavier. Many an investor comes to Jasper and goes away sorely disgusted with the affairs of our county after inquiring into the facts. Jasper county is known from Maine to Calfornia. As a county whose soil is only fairto “middlin,” whose laws are treated as being “middlin,” and whose business is done in a way that is scajpcely “middlin,” like the great monopolists rule the country a few sore-heads are running Jasper county. We are and always was opposed to class legislation or the protection of a favored few at the expense of the many.

Harris and A. L. Keister of Jordan township, Sundayed in Remington. —G. B. Clark, who has been confined to the house since last December, was seen on the street last Saturday in an invalid chair. —Cummons Bros, have the contract for erecting a new church in Gilboa township, Benton county, in the near future. -—L. *A.

W. Powell are both enclosed and are being rapidly pushed to completion and will be among the most commodious and handsome residences in the city when finished. —The remains of a small child, of parties whose name we failed to learn, was put off the 9:38 a. m. train here Tuesday. Cause of death, brain fever. Interment at Egypt cemetery,

The First Base Ball Players.

A member of the Canton Theological school, who is interested in the great national game, has written a thesis on'“base ball among the ancients.” The devil was the first coacher —he coached Eve when she stole first—Adam stole second. When Isaac meet Rebecca at the well she was walking with a pitcher. . Sampson struck out a great many times when he beat the Moses made his first run when he slew the Egyptians. Cain made a base hit when he killed Abel, Abraham made a sacrifice. The Prodigal son made a home run. David was a great long distance thrower.. Moses shut out the Egyptians at the Red Sea.—Ex. Subsribe for The Democrat,
