fThe blizzard, prevailing last Friday as we went to press, continued until night, about three or four inches of snow falling, and Saturday morning the mercury stood at 18 above zero. Most of the spow disappeared Sunday, and we have since had fine weather, and quite warm.

Reed to the people of Starke county as an honorable and upright young man, well worthy of their confidence and esteem.

The oil refining company in tfhich Miss C. P. Monnett bought stock to the amount of $6,250 has sent on the stock and the same is now lying in a bank here awaiting investigation of matters. The attorney for the Capital National Bank at Indianapolis has agreed with Miss Monnett’s attorneys to allow the latter time to investigate the law points, etc* before taking any farther action toward the collection of the f 5,000 draft. It is probable now that the matter will be settled amicably.

Monticello Democrat: An effort is being made among some of oar people to hold a street carnival in June. The Democrat does not want to be considered a knocker on anything that may possibly benefit the town, but it advises our people to think seriously before turning over the streets to something that has been discredited almost every place they have been held. They will “advertise” a town. Certainly! But as being of any permanent good to a community, either mentally, morally, spiritually or financially the experience of other towns does not bear out the proposition.

We notice that the assessors’ sohedule for an assessment of personal property is generally higher in this county than that of our neighbors. As an example, corn here is scheduled at 30 cents per bushel and oats 25 cents. In neighboring counties each is taken at 5 cents less per bushel. Average horses here are S9O, while our neighbors take them at $75; 2-year-old steers $25 here, sls elsewhere, etc., etc. The rates here are higher all along tha line and therefore require people in this county to pay 15 to 25 per oent more state taxes than onr neighbors. This should not be.

Chronic Bronchitis Cured-

“For ten yean I had chronic bronchitis se bad that at times I could not apeak above a whisper," writes Mr. Joseph Coffman, of Montmorenci, Ind. “I tried all remedies available, but with no success. Fortunate if my employer suggested that I try Foley's Honey and Tar. Its effect was almost miraculous, and I am now cured of the disease. On my recommendation many people have used Foley’s Hooey and Tar, and always with satisfaction.” For tale by A. F. Long.
