Ex-President Harrison left an estate valued at about $400,000, one-half of which is realty. From present indications, General De Wet’s surrenders have all been grossly exaggerated. * Congressmen in the Philippines at this season of the year, are likely to find out that the rain there falls on the just and themselves alike. Any Congressman defeated sot re-election can get offices by applying to William McKinley. If Mac hasn’t any offices handy, he will create them. Before New York and “Pennsylvania further score the south for disfranchising negroes, will they please explain their conduct in disfranchising thousands of white men whose only offense was that they voted against the bosses? The bill increasing the salaries of Clerk White and Recorder Quigley, mentioned last week, became a law without Gov. Durbin’s signature. . The clerk will now receive $1,200 per year and the recorder SI,OOO. —Starke County Democrat. The stars seem to fight against Dreat Britian in South Africa. Now the plague is descending upon ber soldiers and bids fair to play frightful havoc before its course can be checked. Truly it is an ill thing to set human rights and justice to naught. How ridiculous it is for the President to assert that only one Filipino in a thousand is hostile to the United States. Are we to believe that it is an insignificant remnant like this which has held the other 9H9 and 65,000 American soldiers at bay for the past two years?

Every newspaper editor is perfectly familiar with the fact that there are lots of folkH that ought to go to a writing school, a still greater number that ought to go to a spelling school, a great multitude that ought to go to n grammar school and more than any man can number that ought to take lessons in punctuation Linden Lender. While many Americans differed from President Harrison on many topics, no one, (\sfar as we know, ever questioned his integrity of purpose nor his unflinching lionesty. The whole country mourns his death, especially at this time, when his voice was raised in rebuke for the “grave departure from right principles” of which the adminstration had been guilty. The treasury dejwirtment is notifying the public through the banks that after July 1, 1901, all notes, checks, drafts, and certificates of deposits will not require i_revenue stamps. Uncancelled stamps or unused stamped checks, unused at that date can be redeemed at the internal revenue office ■according to regulations. This is in accordance with the bill passed by congress removing the stamp tax from negotiable paper and proprietary medicines. The treasurer’s annual notice to taxpayers, for the last publication of which the Official Apologist’s bill was cut from squares to 19 squares, is worth for publishing practically the same amount each year, and if it was worth but S3B in the year of our Lorn 1901, it has been worth no more than S3B in previous years. We would suggest that the Apologist man refund to Jasper county the money he has robbed it of on thiß item alone daring the many years tie has held an undisturbed place «t the public crib. Someone anight institute criminal proceedings in this matter and then—well, you know what happened to Geo. M. Ray down in Shelby county.

“PresidenUof the United States Emperor of the Philippines, guardian of Cuba and lord of the octopus.’’ How grand it sounds. If the British lion joins issue with the Russian bear, he is likely to find out the difference between fighting some one his own size and “picking” on tiny little fellows like the Boer republics. We understand that Geo. Healyof the Brookston Gazette, is to soon assume management of the Official Apologist of Jasper county. George’s success (?) in the management of newspapers has certainly been most striking, and he is no doubt a fit manager for the Apologist in its declining days. —' ' : Had Andrew Carnegie used some of the money which he is now distributing with so lavish a hand to libraries, in paying the poor devils living wages who helped him accumulate it, the bloody history of Homestead would never have been written and there would have been fewer mounds in the cemeteries thereabouts.

The Indiana State Sentinel now has a circulation of 101,187, 681 of which are sent to Jasper county subscribers. The State Sentinel was 79 years old Wednesday, and the event was celebrated by the firing of 101 cannon Wednesday morning and a parade from the Sentinel office to the postoffice, led by a big elephant, which was followed by the Ostendorf military band, the Sentinel’s automobile mail wagon, 10 heavily laden express wagons, each carryng 10,000 copies of the Weekly Sentinel, and this followed by a big float bearing a huge canvass map of Indiana showing the State Sentinel’s circulation in each county in the state. Having exhausted every device known to skilled attorneys in a vain effort to avoid well merited punishment, George M. Ray of the Official Apologist of Shelby county, was finally landed behind the gates of the Michigan City prison oiy Wednesday of this week. He will be known for the next few years as convict No. 1984. The crime for which Ray was convicted, that of presenting false claims for printing bills against Shelby county, is familiar to most of our readers. His conviction as well as that of the ex-treasurer and one Farris, also a former county officer, was brought about through the efforts of the democratic party of Shelby county to purify itself, as all the convicted men were democrats, were prosecuted by democratic court officers and convicted by democratic juries. The example set by Shelby county democracy is cine that could be emulated by dominant parties in other counties of Indiana with credit to themselves and profit to the tax- i payers.

An honest man is at once one of the noblest, rarest and lonesomest triumphs of creation. We believe that the majority of people are born honest, but they soon get it hammered out of them. Early in life, while they are still under the reign of the parental barrel-stave, they learn the cruel lesson that, while an open confession is good for the soul, it is also very hard on the rear of the pants, and bo ns the child hangs upside down across the knee of his parent, who is not afraid to strike below the belt, the resolution comes crashing into his mind that if he ever lives through it he will know what to say the next time. He decides that he would rather be dishonest and happy than honest and lame. When he reaches manhood and starts in to raise a mustache and a bank account, he finds things the same way, only more so. He learns that the fellows who are not honest enough to be poor and are too fcmart to get caught at it, are the ones who ride around and look down on those who earn their breud by the honest but annoying sweat of their brows. There are, in truth, many honest men in the world, and there are many more who would like to be honest, but, as anyway to get there seems to be the golden rule nowadays, they would rather steal a ride on the knee of affluence than trudge around with a clear conscience and a hickory shirt. —Decatnr Journal.

Night Was Her Terror.

“I would cough nearly all night long” writes Mrs. Chas. Applegate, of Alexandria, Ind., "and could hardly get any sleep. I had consumption so baa that if I walked a block I would cough frightfully and spit blood, but when all other medicines failed, three SI.OO bottles of Dr. King’s New Discovery wholly cured me and I gained 58 pounds." It's absolutely guaranteed to cure Coughs, Colds. La Grippe, Bronchitis and all Throat and Lung Troubles. Price 50c and SIOO. Trial bottles free at Long's drug store.

Jasper County Should Not Pay.

Regarding the judgement of $450.00 and costs secured by Win, B. Burford against Jasper county in the White circuit court, (by “compromise,” says the Official Apologist) for books and stationery furnished Jasper county during a time when the county bad a contract with Wilson, Humphreys & Co., of Logansport, to furnish ALL supplies of this nature, and for which the said firm of Wilson, Humphreys & Co., were paid the full $1,450, The Democrat wishes to submit a few facts why said judgement should not be paid, at least not by Jasper County. First, we submit the contract with Wilson, Humphreys & Co., as it appears on Page 017, Commissioners’ Record No. 10: “In the matter of auppliei for the several county offices. “Comes now Wilson, Humphreys A Co., of Loaransport, Ind., and submits proposal to the Board to furnish all blanks, books and stationery of every kind and description and all other supplies for the Auditor, Treasurer, Sheriff, Clerk, Recorder, Surveyor, Superintendent of Schools, Prosecuting Attorney, Board of Review, County Assessor, Township Assessor, Board of Commissioners, Board of Gravel Road Directs, Board of Auditors, Election Boards, Boards of Health, Superintendent of Poor Farm, and supplies which the county is required to supply to Township Trustees, for one year for $1,480.00 payable quarterly. “Said proposal is now accepted and signed by the commissioners and is made a part hereof.”

Now, the above contract, was spread upon record as above shown and was notice to every county officer that Jasper county HAD a contract with the above stationery firm for the furnishing of ALL SUPPLIES for one year from Sept. 11, 1897, This record, if we mistake not, is in the hand-writ-ing of H. B. Murray, the county auditor at that time and who was auditor during the entire period covered by Mr. Burford’s complaint for recovering pay for the supplies which he alleges were furnished the following officers to spective names, to-wit:

Auditor’s office (H. B. Murray.) $283.65 Treasurer’s office (J. C. Gwin,) 31.20 Sheriff's office (N. J. Reed,).. 23.85 Co. Supt’s office (L. H. Hamilton,) 71.25 Surveyor's office (J. E. Alter,) 77.05 Every one of these officers, and especially the auditor, should have known that they had no right whatever to order the supplies above mentioned. The law stated expressly that the county commissioners should purchase all such supplies, and even had it not done so the contract with Wilson, Humphreys & Co., spread upon the commissioners’ record, was notice to them that the said Wilson, Humphreys &Co , was bound to furnish all supplies for the respective county officers, and no officer had any authority whatever to order supplies from Tom, Dick and Harry and hold the tax-pay-ers of Jasper county responsible for the same. Jasper county paid the said Wilson, Humphreys & Co., every dollar of the $1,450 named in the j contract for furnishing these stationery supplies. Will the taxI payers sit idly by and allow money to be taken from the county treasury to again pay for them, or will they proceed to enjoin the county from payipg? It must be plain to any fair-minded man of ordinary intelligence that the amount of this “compromise” judgement should not be paid by the county but should be paid by those officers who deliberately ignored the contract made with Wilson, Humphreys & Co., and unlawfully ordered supplies on their own responsibility. The total amount involved in dollars, including costs, is probably about S6OO, but a principle is at stnke which means many times S6OO to the taxpayers of Jasper county, and for this reason the matter of the county’s liability for the uncalled for and illegal acts of its servants should be thoroughly tested in the courts before submitting to any thing of the sort.

An Honut Medicine for La Grippe.

George W Waitt, of South Gardiner, Me., says: "I have had the worst cough, cold, chills and grip and have taken lots of trash of no account but profit to the vendor. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is the only thing that has done any good whatever. I have used one bottle of it and the chilis, cold and grip have all left me. I congratulate the manufacturers of an honest medicine.” For sale by I. A. Larsh.
