Attention Fanners. • Why remain in the North and slay indoors six months m the year consuming what you raise during the other six months? Go South where you can work out dcors every month in the year, and where you are producing something the year round. If you are a stock raiser you know your stock are now "eating their heads off” and, besides, have to be protected from the rigors of winter by expensive shelter, Economical.stock feeding requires the combination of both flesh-forming and fat-forming food in certain proportions. Alabama and Florida produce in abundance the velvet bean and cassava, the first a flesh producer, and the latter a fat producer, and they are the - cheapest and best fattening materials known to the world. More money can be made and with less labor, in general farming, fruit and berry growing and truck gardening along out road in the South than in any other section of the Union. If you are interested and desire further information on the subject, address.

SHORT CUT TO STATE PRISON.

Two Men Sent Up Thirty-Six Hours After Robbery. Lafayette, Ind., Jan. 23.—T0 beat a man into unconsciousness, rob him, spend the plunder, be captured, get a penitentiary sentence and be taken to prison within thirty-six hours, is the record of John Meyers of this city, and James Rader of Wolcott, Ind. They were taken to the Michigan City prison to-day by Sheriff Ray, where they will serve a sentence of from two to fourteen years. During Thursday night Meyers and Rader enticed Albert Smith, of Morgan county into a dark street in this city, where they assaulted him and dragged him into an alley. They had heard that he had Considerable money on his person, and when they failed to find it, they became infuriated and kicked their victim iuto unconsciousness and threatened to cut his throat. They obtained 13 from Smith’s pockets. The police found Smith in an unconscious condition, and learning that he had been with Meyers and Rader, arrested the two men and obtained a confession. The two assailants were taken before Judge DeHart, of the Circuit Court.

OOM PAUL’S LAST DAYS.

Cincinnati Enquirer: Paul Kruger, formerly President of the Transvaal, is rapidly failing at The Hague, and his death may be announced even as soon as this Paragraph reaches print. His old ays have been saddened by reflection on the downfall of the South African Bepnblic, over which he presided. No greater struggle for freedom and independence was ever made than that by the Boer patriots; and though the fight was not successful in the ultimate, no greater humiliation was ever put upon Great Britain than that which she secured at the hands of the people of the Transvaal and Orange Free State. There had finally to be a yielding, though, to force vastly a superior in numbers and resources. In the eyes of the world there was mnch glory, even in defeat, for Kroger and those who struggled with him; bat the poor old man thought not of that. He was embittered as to the outcome of the war in Sonth Africa. He unceasingly mourned the impossibility of the South African Republic’s ever again assuming important

places in the affairs of the world. Death comes to him as a gracious relief from a sorrow. The passing of Oom Paul is pathetic, and it is suggestive of remorse and repentance. Even the people of the United States — this greatest of all the republics — cannot be content with the attitude of their Government toward the struggle for popular government by the sturdy Boers. There was not a helping hand nor one encouraging word from us. The only grace left us in this connection is the bowing of our heads in humiliation.

SOME GOOD ADVICE.

A young man sought a clerkship in one of the departments at Washington during the life time of R. G. Ingersoll, and asked the indorsement of the gifted orator. Ingersoll’s reply is not only a bit of fine word painting, but is full of some mighty good advice. He said: “Young man, I’d rather have forty acres of land, with a log cabin on it and a woman I love in the cabin—with a grassy, winding path where the water gurgles from the lips of the earth, whispering day and night to the white pebbles, a perpetual poem — with hollyhocks growing at the corner of the house and morning glories blooming over the low thatched door —with lattice work over the window so that the sunlight would fall on the dimpled babe in the cradle, and birds, like songs with white wings, hovering in the summer air—than be the clerk of any government on earth.”

STILL MORE OF IT.

Ed. Democrat: —While “A Republican” in last week’s Democrat struck some of the more pronounced grafts in Union township, he did not reach all, by any means. We understand that an old school-house that was replaced with a new one was not advertised and sold as required by law, but was kept by the trustee himself, and as his report does not itemize the receipts—which is also required by law —the public doesn’t know whether he charged himself with the old building at any price or not. The trustee’s hired man, Wm. Herrod, who is employed by the year by Mr. Comer, also drew $15.75 for township work, and of the nearly $2,100 in time orders issued for road work, the trustee got the lion’s share, he having several teams of his own at work on the roads. If all the “grafts” could be traced down it is likely it would be found that our trustee makes the oflice pay nearly $2,000 per year, which, in these times of hail-destroying-the-corn and short oats crops is not so bad a job after all. Union Tp., Republican.
