Hurrah for the Remington K. of P’s. Quite a number of farmers in this v icin* ity are done husking corn. Dennis O’Reilly was called to Chicago last Friday by the serious illness of a brother. John G. and John W. Harris and Lex Fisher were in Chicago last week on a horse buying expedition. James B. Irwin has bought the Dobbins property on South Ohio street and will fpove to town next spring. Several of our citizens were called to Rensselaer Monday and Tuesday as witnesses in the various Guy cases. The widow of the late John W, Swan was here recently looking at property and is thinking of locating in Remington. F. S. Willard, for several years clerk in Peck’s drug store, has moved to Sheldon, 111., where he has taken a similar position. John Kettering has sold his fine little ten acre farm just west of town to Reuben Crane, and is thinking of taking a prospecting trip West. The condition of uncle Henry Welsh remains about the same at this writing, and we understand no hopes are entertained for bis recovery. The Democrat’s subscription list is just a-bouming here, and we haven't so bitter a partisan but admits it is by far the best county paper published in northwestern Indiana. The marriage of Mr. Clark Bartee and Miss Verne Broadie, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Broadie, is announced to take place Wednesday evening, Nov. 2g. They are both popular young people, and we extend advance congratulations. Robert Parker and Levi Hawkins were were in Logansport last week to confer with some electric railroad promotors who are figuring on a line from Lafayette to Hammond touching Wolcott, Remington and Rensselaer. We believe a line running from Lafayette and touching these towns would be practical and a money maker. Among the Remingtonians who visited the hub Tuesday were: J. D. Alimin, C. H. Peck, Geo. Chappell, W. L. Rich, Robert Parker, Ira W. Yeoman, Albert Taber, J. M. Ott, Royalty, Will Zea, Wm. Townsend, J. W. Phelps, Warner Elmore. James Washburn, Waiter Rich, James Clowry, I. D. Luckey, M.

Our-M. E. pastor preached a very fine sermon upon the subject of Jonah, last Sunday. Let all come out and give him a full house at every service. We wish to congratulate our newly married couple upon their embarkment upon the Sea of Matrimony. May the dove of peace and the eagle of prosperity attend their way. The spirit of matrimony is rampant in these parts and the young marriagabies are scampering to places of safety. If the spirit can’t be tamed we are afraid the young people will all be gobbled up. A large number of the people from this township attended the funeral of Mr. E. T. Biggs at Wheatfield. Mr. Biggs was well known in these parts, having been a former trustee of Kankakee township and until a few years ago, was a resident of this township. In behalf of the people ot Kankakee we extend to the bereaved our heartfelt sympathy. When they tell you that our town is Tefft, you tell them that they are laboring under the canopy of a dark green delusion. Common sense teaches emphatically that in order to change the name of a town they must appeal io the people of the place. Say, if they have the right to thus change D. V. to Tefft, autocratically, they have the right to change our name to King Darius. Thus you see it is a dangerous precedent.

Terrified Race With Death. “Death was fast approaching,” writes Ralph F. Fernandez, of Tampa, Fla., describing his fearful race with death, “as a result of liver trouble and heart disease, which has robbed me of sleep and of all interest in life. I had tried many different doctors and several medicines, but got no benefit, until I began to use Electric Bitters. So wonderful was their effect, that in rhree days I felt like a new man, and to-day lam cured of all my troubles.” Guaranteed at A. F. Long’s, drug store; price 50c.

No Case of Pneumonia on Record. We do not know of a single instance where a cough or cold resulted in pneumonia or consumption when Foley's Honey and Tar had been taken. It cures coughs and colds perfectly. so do not take chances with some unknown preparation which may contain opiates, which cause constipation, a condition that retards recovery from a cold. Ask for Foley's Honey and Tar and refuse any substitute offered. Sold by A. F. Long.
LETTER FROM GEO. J. NICHOLS.
Surrey, N. D., Nov. 12, 'OS. Mr. Editor:—With your permission I would be pleased to write a few lines to my many friends in old Jasper, as I promised them I would do after I got things straightened up. We arrived here Oct. 19; our car came the next day, Oct. 20. We got possession of our house immediately and my family moved in Sunday, Oct. 23. Up to this time they were staying with Warren Brey and family. Every thing in the car was in as good shape as when loaded except the boys that came with it. They seemed sick of their boarding and sleeping place. But the team of mules seemed to fair it very well and we have had them in the harness every day since. Also our chickens fared well and are laying. Eggs are 30c per dozen; butter 25c. You will remember I brought a few bales of tame hay but the stock didn’t thank me; they would much prefer, the bay that grows wild here. I started the plow Monday, Oct. 23, and plowed until the next Monday noon, when it froze about 3 inches so we had to stop but started again 3 or 4 days after and have been plowing ever since. Have about $5 acres plowed and part harrowed. 1 expect to put 150 acres to wheat; have the seed bought, paying 78c for it, I have bought oats, they weighing 43 lbs. to the bushel measure at 20c, flax 86c. We have been having for the last 10 days very fine weather, just about such weather as we had with you the first of October. To-day, Sunday, it is very warm. And I mustn’t forget to state that my Jasper County Democrat is looked for and read with as mnch interest as it was when I was a democrat in Jasper. Well, I am afraid I am making this the first letter a little lengthy but 1 must say that I haven't found any use for a dredge, a tiling machine, a tile mill or a f rubbing machine so far, neither do think we will ever need them, or elections, to assess the people for gravel
roads, because our roads here are as bard and smooth as a pavement. But what I would like would be another team and gang plow so we could do a little more plowing. Hoping that this may find you in as good spirits as it leaves us, and hoping to hear from vou, I remain respectfully. Geo. Nichols. P. S.: —Ed Nichols, my cousin that came with me, is now in Montana prospecting with the intention of taking a claim.
Cuban Land. I am not a land agent, but I can tell you where I bought land last year that has already increased in value 150 percent. This is because thousands of Americans are investing there, building railroads, sugarmills, saw-mills, and other things necessary to develop a new and fertile country. Land that is producing 350 to 375 clear profit per acre yearly in sugar cane. Land that is producing 3750 per acre net profit yearly in ordinary cocoanuts. Land that is producing 3400 per acre yearly in oranges, lemons, pineapples and bananas. Land where rich grass grows higher than a horse's back, and on which cattle fatten with no other food, ready for the block. Land with a perfect climate, cooler in summer than it is in Indiana, with no frosts, and plenty of rainfall. Richer land than you ever saw, unless you have been there. Land covered with forests of great commercial value, such as mahogany, sabicou, juiqui, etc. I can introduce you to a man who makes a practice of backing these statements up with his pocket-book—he will give any responsible party his certified check for 3300. and if this party should, upon investigation, find any of these statements untrue, he shall go to the hank and get his 3300, which pays his expenses and leaves 350 for his time; but if everything is as represented he shall hand the check back, and he will buy land, all he can pay for, just like I did, This won't last always, and “the early bird,” etc. Parties going to Cuba every month. If you want to know more, see me. or write. Rensselaer. Ind. B. J.WILCOX,
