Wonder if the failure of Jesse Fry’s Rose Lawn bank a few weeks ago started all this trouble in the g. o. p. financial camp? The Indianapolis News says it is certainly curious that men that make failures of their own business affairs are supposed to be good enough for the public service. To borrow an old phrase from our republican brethren, quite a number of banks have been going democratic during the past few days. Wonder what’s the matter with the g. o. p. prosperity ship? An expert investigation of the county records of Pulaski county has just been completed and among other things the report of the accountants shows that exAuditor James N. Hayworth, republican, is short $961.68, on fees that he had collected and failed to lurn over to the county. Hon. Jesse E. Wilson of Rensselaer, who represented this representative district in the last legislature, states to the editor of the Kentland Enterprise that he will be a candidate for senator for the new district composed of Jasper, Porter, Pulaski and Starke counties, before the republican senatorial convention. Now the Red Men have declared against street fairs and carnivals. The Democrat, it should be remembered, has always been “forninst” them, therefore if the Elks, Knights of Pythias and Red Men are right in their position now. The Democrat was right a long time ago, and it is indeed some satisfaction to a newspaper no well as to an individual, to know that it “was right first.” By affirming a decision of the Federal Court for the Indiana District, the United States Circuit Court of Appeals has declared Frederick S. Chase of Lafayette, to be the legal guardian cf the person and property of hia son, Mosee Fowler Chase. While an appeal to the United States Supreme Court is possible, this ruling is conceded to be practically the end of a legal battle which has been carried on for several years, for the guardianship of young Chase, who has been propronounced mentally unsound. Over at Brook they are building a new school house, and a lumber dealer named Zook is a member of the school board. He is said to be furnishing the brick for the new building, something that is prohibited bv law, for members of school boards or city or town councils are absolutely prohibited from furnishing any supplies the payment for whioh they must allow. Zook is said to have charged a fancy prioe for the brick and boasted that he was getting a good price for them. The matter was taken before the grand jury over at Kentland, and as a result Zook was indicted. Another member of the school board, John Fox, a carpenter, was also indicted, it is alleged, for doing the < .rpenter work on th§ new build-

Nearly a dozen big banka in different parts of the country have closed their doors this week, and Thursday the Acme Harvester Works at Peoria, 111., one of the largest manufacturing concerns in the country, went busted. Mayor A. F. Knotts of Hammond, who never fails to keep his name in the newspapers by Borne means or other, is now after Editor Swaim of the Lake County News for the latter’s criticism of his official acts, and, simply to intimidate the editor, no doubt, has written him a letter in which he refers to the acquittal of Tillman in Sonth Carolina for the murder of Editor Gonzales. “Harbor” intimates that he will settle Swaim in the same way. Knotts is the only northern man we remember of having heard of who lauda Tillman for having murderdd the South Carolina man. A. B. Crampton, the well known editor of the Carroll County Citizen, was arrested by the postal authorities Tuesday for publishing and sending obscene matter through the mails. The article complained of was one published recently in the Citizen on the occasion of the marriage of Victor L. Ricketts, editor of the Delphi Journal, wherein Bro. Crampton used several printers’ terms in congratulating Bro. Ricketts and giving him some fatherly advice on family matters. The article referred to was not a circumstance to the regular issues of the lamented Wheatfield Telephone, but someone got the postal authorities after Bro. Crampton with the above result. He was released on SSOO bonds- pending the action of the Federal grand j“ ry - ________ SAnUEL E. MORSS DEAD. Hon. Samuel E. Morss, editor of the Indianapolis Sentinel, died Wednesday, the result of injuries received from a fall from his private office on the third floor of the Sentinel building. - He had been in rather poor health lately and it is supposed that he was at the raised window looking out when, suddenly overcome by dizziness, he lost his balance and fell to the sidewalk below. His skull was fractured by the fall and he was

otherwise injured. He never regained consciousness, but died while on the operating table at the hospital a short time after the accident. Mr. Morss was one of the most prominent and influential democrats in Indiana, and his loss will be keenly felt and deplored from all quarters of the state and nation. Deceased was 61 years of age, and had been editor of the Sentinel since 1888, and at the time of his death he was the sole owner of the paper. He was U. S. Consul to Paris under the last Cleveland administration. A man of high ideals, tender sympathies and indomitable energy, his death is a loss to the democracy and the people of the state and nation.

GIEFORD IS EXPANDING.

Benjamin J. Gifford and J. E. Jones, president and secretary of the Chicago & Wabash Valley railroad, representing the board of directors of the road, this morning filed a petition with the Secretary of State for permission to extend their line north from the terminus in Jasper county, a distance of ten miles, passing through Eagle Creek and Cedar Creek townships in Lake county. The work is to be done as soon as possible. The board of directors of the road also ask to be allowed to increase the capital stock of the company to $300,000 in order that the road extensions may be constructed. The present equipment cost $190,000 and the extension has been estimated to cost SIIO,OOO. —Indianapolis News. Funeral cards always in stock at this office.

AN INVITINO IDEA. * / Chicago Establishment Pro vlda* Blatant Turklak Bath* and Hetal Accommodation a all for Ona Dollar. Something new in the hotel line is supplied by the famous New Northern Baths, a palatial establishment at 14 Qnincy street, near State street, Chicago. This is the most handsomely fitted np establishment in the United States—in fact there is no other place quite like it anywhere. It is a hotel and baths combined. The New Northern has lately undergone additions and improvements that make it an extremely attractive place to visit. The furnishings in every one of the eight floors are the best and most luxurious that money can bay, especially in the offioe floor where the wall decorations, stained-glass windows and other embellishments are well worth a visit on their own account. A visitor to Chicago can have any kind of a bath he chooses — Turkish, Russian Plain, Needle, Electrio or Plunge.. The swimming pool is the best in the country with even temperature all the year round. He oan enjoy himself in the most leisurely fashion, and a well appointed grill room supplies him with first class meals at any hour day or night Nowhere in Chicago can a stranger find a more pleasant and restful stopping place than the New Northern Baths, while the economy of the arrangement is a thing worth taking note of.
