We acknowledge the receipt of a complimentary to the White County Fair, to be held at Monticello on September 80th, October Ist, 2nd and 3d. Bead the communication of “U” in ■this issue, on the Jasper County tax question. It is a cellection of facts and figure which' will be found interesting and instructing. The Union comes to hand this week in a six column quarto form, consisting of fortyeight columns; with thirty-six columns of a Chicago print, however. The show has come and gone again.— They had a pretty good attendance here at Rensselaer. Tho menagarie was very “thin” indeed, but the circus, we pronounce excellent. ■ The Benton County Board of Commissioners have offered a reward of fifty dollars for the delivery to the sheriff of said county of a certain wild beast that roams at large over the tranquil bosom of Benton ; no matter whethar it be dead or alive.

Price, Independent candidate for Clerk, gave the Republican office a call last Friday. Charley thinks his chances for the Clerkship of Jasper county are good, but time, like a prattling woman, will tell. The two little Misses, Louie and Birdie Hammond, daughters of Judge Hammond, will bo remembered by the editor, and the employes of the Republican office, with grateful hearts, for a beautiful boquet and several bunches of delicious grapes. The Republicans of Jasper county have n ominated a full county ticket and from persons who are acquainted, we learn that it is composed of the best of men. The Independent movement in Jasper is rapidly going to “sticks.”— Kentland Gazette. We issue with this number of the Republican a Campaign Suppieinent containing much valuable information, among which will be found the able speech of Senator Morton as delivered at Indianapolis last Friday. It is worthy of a careful perupusal by every reader of the Republican. Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary can only be appreciated by those who spend a few hours in its critical examination. It is a library of valuable information in itself, containing admirably condensed articles on thousands of subjects, three thousand of which are illustrated by excellent cuts. It costs sl2, while volumes containing the same amount of matter on similar subjects, would cost hundreds of dollars. It is the cheapest volume in the English language, except the Bible,

When the times are hard like they ate at present, economy shold be everybody’s rule. Money can be saved by t lading wish Emmet Kannal, when in need of any thing in his Hne. See his new advertisement in this P a P er - __________ The Grand Jury was in session two days, examined twenty-two witnesses and found three indictments. They also took a trip to view the county jail, and reported quite unfavorably of that institution. We direct special attention to the records of the Republican and Democratic parties in Congress on the transportation question, reproduced from the Indianapolis Journal. These records present interesting facts for the present times. Let the voters of Jasper read, think and ponder. Flynn & Statzell have moved to this place for the purpose of renovating feathers.— Will be found on Washington street, one door west of Healy’s shoe shop. Will guarantee satisfaction to all persons who will try the experiment. Price, for renovating a single Led $2.00 if satisfaction is given, if not, the work will be done free of charge. Remember the place, and give them a call at once. The Jasper Rbpublxcan, C. M. Johnson’s new paper, printed at Rensselaer, has been received. It is neat in appearance and a sound Republican journal, and every Republican in the County ought to taka it.— Success to the new enterprise which AoulJ have been started long since.— Kentland Gazette Last evening, as was previously announced by posters, Mrs. Emma Molloy delivered a temperance lecture in the court house to a large and attentive audience. If such an appeal as was made by Mrs. Molloy, last night, will not touch the sympathies of all her hearers and win them over to the side of temperance and morality, we ask what in the name of suffering humanity will save their souls from perdition. Among our Remington friends who called on us during the week were the following named gentlemen: Mr. D. B. Miller, a promising young lawyer; Mr. G. B. Clark, the healthy postmaster; Mr. Chas. Jouvenat a lawyer and real estate agent > Mr. W. H. Pierce, an officer of Carpenter township—Constable ; Mr. Fred Stiffler, a general “roust-about Mr. Dwight Babcock, the nursery man ; Mr. Felix Lester, the hack-driver for Patton Bros, ; and several ethers whose names have slipped our memory.

Olleman, the Editor of the State Organ of the “independent” party at Indianapolis, is stumping that district, and advocating the election of Landers, the Democratic nominee for Congress. Major was nominated for the Senate by a convention composed chiefly of Democrats and presided over by a Democrat. Brown, the candidate for Representative, was endorsed by the Democrats of White county assembled in a Dcmocatic convention. The Monticello Constitutionalist under the head of “Democratic ticket ’ says: “For Senator George Major; For Representative, George H. Brown.” The “independent” party works harmoniously with the Democrats. The Laport Argus, a Democratic paper of northern Indiana, in an article copied with approbation by the Union, spoke of the organization of the party in this county, as a “stab at the Republican party.” These are facts that should be considered by every Republican who proposes to vote the ‘’independent” ticket at the coming election. The Winamac Republican says of the ticket nominated in this “The men, so far as we know or have ever heard, are honest and faithful, and we believe they will be elected. The Union seems to think the ticket will not get 500 votes in the county, but in that we think it is as badly mistaken as it was when it predicted two years ago that Gen. Packard would not run his party vote by 200 to 300 votes.” m It is reported that Hon. Anson Wolcott, of White county, has accepted the Independent nomination for Congress in this District. Mr. Wolcott expects to get some of the Grangers votes. He is a sort of a Greeley farmer—better in the theory than the practice. Or, as a Granger friend described it us recently “he is one of those kind of book farmers that for every fifty cents worth of produce raised, it costs him a dollar.”—Mishawaka Enterprise.
