C. P. Wright is nursing a sore foot nowadays. While in Indianapolis lait week on electric railroad business, while passing through the sheds at the union depot, a heavy grip that was thrown on one of the baggage trucks fell off the side and landed on Mr. Wright’s foot. What he said at the time might not look well in print. However, he tellp us that the railroad is practically a sure go, and we hope it is. The contracts for the money to build it, he says, have all been signed up and he thinks that active work will begin on the line within thirty days. The road is to run from Lafayette to Otterbein, thence to Remington, Rensselaer, Mt. Ayr, Roselawn, and thence to Crown Point, connecting with an electric line there to Chicago. For some time The Democrat has been unable to fill all orders for its rapidly increasing job patronage as promptly as it desired and has been forced to turn a number of jobs away altogether. We are now pleased to announce that we shall next week have with us once more Mr. E. T. Jones of Covington, Ky., who will take his old position as foreman of our job department. Mr. Jones is a first class printer of many years experience in job offices of Cincinnati and other cities, and with his addition to The Democrat we shall be able to turn out all work promptly and in the best style of the printing art. Mr. Jones was employed by The Democrat several months last summer, it will be remembered, and during his stay here the family made numerous friends. He will move his family here again about Feb. 1. JASPER’S YET TO HEAR FROM. Goodland Herald:—Owing to his heavy loss in the Home bank ex-Treasurer Convert lacked $9,300 when time for settlement came, but the bondsmen raised this amount and Mr. Coovert turned over to them all of his property, which will probably cover the shortage. The county thus receives every cent due, and the prompt manner of settlement is highly creditable to both principal and bondsmen.
