Judge Kirkpatrick of Kokomo, has been nominated by the democrats of the Ninth district to oppose Charlie Landis for congress. Democrats of the PulaskiStarke judicial circuit have nominated Mont M. Hathaway of Winamac, for judge and A. L. Courtright of Knox, for prosecuting attorney. Mr. Kirljy Risk of Lafayette, has joined forces with Leroy Armstrong of the Lafayette Democrat, and the new firm will begin the publication of a morning daily. With Leroy Armstrong and Kirkby Risk at the helm, the Democrat cannot help but be a grand success. Just keep in mind that whenever a republican talks about the commercial invasion of Europe he is furnishing the best sort of argument why the tariff should be revised. If we can ship our goods to Europe and undersell her there, how in the name of reason can there be any danger of any destructive competition here? Almost every articlw that is exported to Europe is sold at a good deal lower figure than the same article is sold for here. The republicans tell us that they are sold at less than cost. It is possible that they squeeze their own people so hard that they can go into the charity business after they get to Europe? It is either that or else they do not sell at less than cost there. The republicans are welcome to either horn of the dilemma If they do not sell for Ittsa than cost, why should they charge us so much more for the same article? Indianapolis Sentinel.
Representative Livingston, who stoppad off in Washington on his way to Maine, where he will take the stump for the Democratic party, predicts that there will be a deficit in the country’s finances
for the fiscal year of $46,000,000. He places the expenditures authorized by Congress st $1,049,000,000 and the same Congress repealed the war revenue tax bill. Therefore, he says, the expenditures will exceed the receipts by $15,000,000. This he believes will be hailed with joy by the bankers for it will moan a bond issue which will enable them to predictate an increased circulation without paying the high premium which United States bonds are now commanding. He says that the Administration will issue bonds and attempt to make the people believe that they are issued in order to meet a demand for Government securities which arises as a result of the extreme prosperity of the country. It is not considered likely, however, that the Government will find it necessary to issue bonds for the especial purpose of meeting a deficit. An issue of bonds is provided for by the Spooner resolution authorizing the construction of the Panama Canal, and already the officials are counting on that issue to help out the Secretary in his efforts to meet the deficit. There is little doubt but that Senator Spooner had been requested by the Administration to provide for that bond issue of $130,(MX),000 for that purpose.
There is reason to believe that the long anticipated “shake-up - ’ in the Treasury Department is about to take place. It is claimed, by those in a position to know, that Assistant Secretary Spaulding will go out very soon and that bis successor has been decided upon. Assistant Secretary Ailes is also talked of as likely to be asked for his resignation. General Spaulding, it is said, will be “taken care of” in some other and less important position within the Department. A new appraiser is to be appointed for the port of New York, anil rumor has it that the appointment will go to William D. Bynum of Indiana. The minor clerks of the Treasury Department have received a severe “shaking-up” of late by the inauguration of new methods by the Secretary and they are bewailing the fact that this is a "strenuous administration.” Under the new rulings, the work of the Department must be kept up to date, letters must be answered the same day that they are received, and work must be done in h businesslike manner and not on the old gossipy, get-it-done-when its convenient manner which has characterzed the Department in the past. The change is appalling to many of the ancient employees of the Department who foresee doom for they have too long followed the old way to be capable of adapting themselves to the new. and their chiefs will be obliged to recommend them for dismissal because they cannot keep up with the pace set by the man from lowa.

A CONGRESSIONAL FAILURE.
Bill Jones is home from Congress— asayin’ "how-dy-do.” Bill Jones is home from Congress—he says he's glad it’s through; He says he done his duty by all his fellowmen, An’ shows us how the country has all been saved again. But, still, somehow or other, it doesn’t just seem right. He's been two terms in Congress, an’ hasn't had a fight! Down in the Sixteenth District they’re pokin' fun at us; They say Bill Jones is Skeery, an’ doesn’t like to fuss. * They met their man from Congress with bandsan' hacks an' cheers, Because he fit another an’ bit off both his ears. Of course. Bill done his duty just as he seen the light, But he's had lots of chances—an' never had a fight! Bill Jones is home from Congress—l guess he'd better stay; He ain’t the kind o’ timber we'd ought to send away. I know he's hustled for us -got pensions here and there, Fixed some folks for positions—but he didn't seem to care About his reputation. He'd rather talk an’ write. He's had two terms in Congress—and never had a tight! —Baltimore American.

An Innocent Wisconsin Man.
The Washington Times says that a certain representative from rural Wisconsin, desiring a drink of water before going to bed the other night, found that the bellboy had neglected to leave the customary pitcher in his room. A little search, however, revealed two small buttons on the wall, under one of which was inscribed, “Push twice for water.” lie pushed as directed, and when the bellboy arrived with the water the congressman was found holding a pitcher under the button.
A Dangerous Salute.
The Christian Register condemns the so called “Chautauqua salute,” which has been popularized at religious gatherings and which consists of waving handkerchiefs simultaneously. “Unless all the handkerchiefs are clean,” it says, “think of the microbes with which the atmosphere is charged after hundreds of them have been waving in the air of a hall closely packed with human beings!”
The Moth.
“Yes, our parlor carpet is ruined.” “Moths?” “One moth did it all.” “Nonsense!” “Fact. My husband saw this moth flying around, and in trying to catch it he upset a bottle of ink and a lighted lamp on the carpet.” —Philadelphia Press.
