IN Luck.—The Republicans of Kosciusko county last week honored Gen. Reub, - Williams of the Warsaw Indianiap with ore nomination for county clerk. The compliment is well-deserved, and if Kos: ciusko, must have radical county officers, we know of no one whom we would rather see in an official position than the gen- _ ial Reub, ; ' TrE new Board of corporaticn truitees met on Monday last and organized by electing Dr. A. 8.

' Fir E .— On Tuesday morning of last week, about 1 o'clock, the remnants of an old deserted frame shanty situated on the classical banks of Fly Creek, near the town of Lagrange, was consumed by fire. The Standard eays: “As the old shell has been used lately for no other plirpqsc than ag a rendezvous for fleas, bed bugs and other vermin of a less reputable nature, no oné seemed sorry that its ragged walls were fast sinking before the ravages of the flames.” ] ;

DexALB County.— David Cropp, whilst walking on the Air Line track between Edgerton and Butler, was severely beaten on the head by a fellow who demanded his money. The would-be-robber received several stabs in the abdomen and face, which unexpected treatment prompted him to skedaddle....The Radicals of Auburn stole a march on the Democracy and elected their entire ticket by majorities ranging tli'om 11to 21.... At Waterloo the old officers were generally re-elect-ed. o

QUITE a number of Republicans ex‘pressed an earnest desire to vote for David R. Hathaway for Jugtice of the Peace, -yesterday, but when it came to the point, a lack of ~-‘ind'epe:nden'ce deterred them from following the dictates of their conscienee, out of fear that by the numbering process it wonld be detected how they - voted, and a failure to “go the whole hog” would greatly endanger their standing in the party! This solicitude is mainly due tothe circumstanc'e that about every tenth Republican of Perry townskip is a candidate for some office, and it would not do _for any of these patriots and their cham- ' pions to be detected in voting tor 4 Democrat. Glorious freedom of the bdllot ! e JourNALISTIC ENTERPRISE.— We inad- . vertently neglected to -state in our last . that the enterprising publishers of the - Warsaw Indianian recently introduced steam power in their extensive printing establishment. All their presses are now . run by steam.=-It affords us pleasure to note this evidence ﬁpmpﬂiﬁy, s it will go far toward convincing the people that the country newspaper is rapidly gaining the foothold it so richly deserves. Country printing offices that only a few years ago were insignificant, beggarly concerns, - &re fow in condition to compete with city ~ offices, and in many cases execute better printing than the ‘latter.

| Cromwell Items. ! DEAR BANNER :—We would endeavor to awaken an interest through “your columns in behalf of our little town, and maintain it by advertising in and subscribing liberally for your paper. ; ~ Cromwell is situated in Noble county, five miles south of Ligonier, on what is generally known in “these parts” as the Indian Reserve. Though the number of inhabitants is small, the enterprise is ércat. For list! we have two fine, well finished churches (s credit to some larger towns we wot of) ; a good school and Louse with nearly 100 scholars in attendance during the winter season. ; : 1 In business matters we have one large, well stocked country store, dry goods and groceries, kept by Aaron Moore. A new grocery just opened by T. R. Green, who hangs out a splendid sign, painted by our fellow townsman, N. E, Doane. (By the way, we must look over the BANNER andif these chaps who are noticed so favorably now have not already advertised, look out for them next week—they will probably send in an ad.) ; Here is located G. W. Reed’s large carriage and wagon shop, where work is finished in all its departments. Joe! Flowérs will make and repair boots and shoes, and give you as 4ood a fit as you ever put your foot into. Al. Maggart talks of open-ing-a boot and shoe store ; we tell him to go ahead, advertise in the BANNER, and he is sure of snccess. . The profession, Drs. Gants and Tucker, must take no offense at not beicg firstnamed on our list, their services are indispensable to all classes. Here, too, we have a large steam saw mill and shingle mill just opposite, both doing a good trade this spring. Remémber the improvements just under construction. New side-walks; nice, new fences ; shade trees by the score, neatly boxed and paiﬁ.nted — a‘l* adds to the beauty and harmony of our. early spring, togetherwith . & .| : “Blooming lasses, birds and fowers"— Who would not be happy in Cromwell.— New items next week.

INpl6¥ANT.—The appointment of Allen Hostetter as census taker became finally known on Monday last, and the announcement of the fact aroused a storm of indignation in the camp of Chapmun, Lockhart, ‘Wood & Co,, that can be much better understood than described. Steph. in par ticular swore eternal vengeance. He had taken special pains to apprise the community that Capt. Braden was to be the lucky man—tbat “1 myself, Steph. Lock hart individually,” had “‘fixed the thing; G—d d—n them!” Whilst that portion of the “happy family” who follow the leadership of the chieftains above named, lamented-and gnashed their teeth over the 'defeat of Capt. Braden—who, as was re marked, served his country faithfully in two wars—indescribable gladness and joy was depicted on the countenances of that other branch of the loyal brotherhood, marshalled. by Henry Hostetter. Conscious of the magnitude of Ins triumph, the venerable Sachem could be observed parading fhe broad sidewalks ot Cavin street, his:gait and general bearing pre senting & striking resemblance to that of Wellington after that famous rout »f the enemy at Waterloo. Allen, to whom was awarded the coveted prize, was happiness personified ; it is stated that he was seat ed for nearly one half day in Skillen’s office, reading and re-reading the precious document that gave him the privilege of serving Uncle Sam and receiving in return the latter’s green backed due bills.

Auditor Fisherarrived in town on Monday, to test the cfficacy ot Mrs. Winslow’s soothing syrup; as to the effect of his preacription, ' no definite intelligence has reached ue, although Dintimations' are thrown out that “Joe is much better.”

*P. B.—Lockhart and Wood have determined to transfer the contest to another field.. A bitter warfare is to be ‘waged against sundry individuals before thé next . repuolican; convention at Albion. .We shall be on hand, and furnish our readers « fiill description of the scenes and in.’ cidents then and there to be enacted. : el P e : SPECIAL ELECTION.—The- special election for two Justices of the Peace, in Perry township, on yesterday, resulted as follows: |- ; 5 ; " Daniel H. Green, Rep. and Fusion, 247 . Joseph C. Best, Repub1ican.......212 David R. Hathaway, Democrat. ...159 Joseph M. ey ..o, 1.8 U B liockbaebe sv L e 0 Y The friends of Mr. Best were badly scared in the forenoon, but determined to rally to his defence. Messengers were dispatched to all parts of the township for the purpose of arousing the brethren, who dutifully obeyed the summon and deposited their ballots. The object of the Democrats was to make a special fight against Best, but unfortunately the management of affairs around the polls was left to. inexperienced parties who did not seem to understand that a vote for Hathaway and Best was simply no vote at all for the former. : Quite a large number of Democrats voted for Hathaway and Best, by which means the latter’s vote was swelled considerably beyond his party strength. No effort was made to bring Democrats to the polls; had that important matter been properly attended to, and the blunder ahove referred to been avoided, Mr. Hathaway would undoubtedly have been elected.

Fonr several weeks mails from Indianapolis, for this corner of the State, have been comin?around by Toledo. This occasions a full day’s delay in their receipt. They should come via Peru and LaPorte. — Waterloo Press. : We were subjected to the same annoyance several weeks/ago. Numerous let‘ters were addressed to Indianapolis pubTishers and the postmaster of that city, to remedy the evil, but without accomplishing the desired change. Finally, the attention of Congressman Williams was called to the fact, and in a very few days the mails from the Sotth were sent here over the proper route. As may readily be understood, we feel duly gratetul for the favor,’ ' *" ¢ 1 : : ; e s———— -GEoraE C. GLATTE has made the first run over the Grand Rapids R.

TRy e It would seem that the radical convention which met at Warsaw the other week, for the nomination of candidates for the various offices to be filled in Kosciusko county, did not only have to deal with a large number of hungry cormorgnts who clamored for official loaves and fishes, but a much larger number of half-starved attachees of the party of grand moral ideas who congregated there in the capacity of delegates, and whose conduct is described a 8 having been most indecent if not outrageous. The Warsaw Union, the editor of which had an opportunity to witness the “scenes and incidents,” furnishes the following description : . There are many disgusted and indignant Republicans since the nomination on Saturday. We can not see how a man, though he may be the most ardent admirer of Radical principles, endorse such scan- J dalous, miserable and disgracefdl political chicanery, as that of Saturday last, in this place. Nominations purchased with free dinners, and whisky, may go down the throats of those who swinisnly and glut-ton-like, packed their stomachs full of eatables and drinkables at the office seekers’ and place-hunters’ expensé, but we can scarcely charge even a majority of the party as willing to approve of this contempt for decency, as exhibited by the Radical nominating Convention. Weare informed that no less than five hundred free dinners were given by the candidates for Auditor, at the Wright and Kirtley hotels, and tha* an equal amount was expended for whisky at the different saloons in the purchase of vntes. A man who will procure a nomination or an election, through the influence of whisky and. free dinpers, deserves the contempt of every honest and upright man in' the.country, and such was the case last Satorday.— The man who had the most money! to spend, and was the most liberal in expending it at the saloons, hotels and restaurants, received the nomination; We will ask any citizen of Warsaw, whether Republican or Democrat, if he did not feel heartily ashamed of the large crowd of dead heads, dead beats and suckers, that disgraced our town on last Saturday,’ many of whom accepted six or seven tickets to free dinners and whiskies. The decent portion of those in attendance were utterly disgusted with this scandalous and shameful conduct. Tk

. Dirt Cheap. AT . Besides giving one thousand radical majerity at almost évery election, Steuben county has opened a new trade, as will be observed by reading the following card in last week’s Steuben Republican : d “Published by Authority.” | - FrEMonT, INp., Jan. 2d, 1870. I, J. H. Button, do hereby certify this second day of January, 1870, that T have bought Amanda Button, the wife ot Geo. W. Button, for five dollars. She hereby, agrees to it by signing her name. (Signed), J: H.BurToN:, . .f.; G. W. Burroxw. : - (Witness), AMANDA BUTTON. | It would be quite useless to comment on this extraordinary proceeding; our readers may draw their own conclusions, ————— o — ; Deari of Caprr. WirLsoN.—From, the Waterloo Air Line we learn. that Capt, J. H. Wilson, formerly a resident of Ligonier, died at the residence of R. J. Lent on the 3d inst., aged 34 years, 8 months and 20 days. He died of consumption, and the disease was contracted through the hardships consequent upon active service during the late war of the Rebellion. The country has thus lost one of its truest and bravest defenders, and soci ety a firm friend and genial compamon, He was a member of Company K, 44th Ind. Vol,, and won his way from Licutenant to the position of Captain. . | . Rt Sl —

For about the fiftieth time our citizens, are assured that a brick hotel is to be erected on the lot now occupied by. the Dodge House. G ——eetl & e Joun B. Storyn, Esq., editor of the Ligonier Banneér and Laporte Argus, is in the city, stopping at the Hotel de Pal. mer. Forney prides himself upon editing two papers, both daily. Mr. Stoll, more modest, and without special effort, also edits two papers, both weekly, but he exhibits the ability and facility that would cnable him to do what Forney does, and it will not compliment him much to.say equally as well. Mr. Stoll publishes two excellent papers, and in every way they will compare favorably with the best.— And we can also complimént Mr. Stoll upon, his being among the best looking of the editorial fraternity, making as fine a showing personally as do his papers typographically.—Znd.

Home Paprers.—The Hudson (Mich.) Post, has the following truthful and sensible remarks: ‘lt matters not how many newspapers a man takes, his list is incomplete without a home paper. If that paper is not just such as he would wish, he should feel that himself and neighbors are responsible in a measure, for its shortcomings. Give a paper a liberal support, and active sympathy, and it will instantly respond to' such manifestations: Let an editor feel that his efforts are appreciated and he is the most responsible being on efrth; his paper being a part of himself “he is as attentive to praise or censure as a doting father. Nothing can supply the place of a home paper. It isthe mirror in which the town and 'neighborhood news is reflected; in the social, political and religious circle it fills a place ne other paper can. ‘When a need .of economy compels you to curtail your newspaper list, strike off eveay other one before you allow your town paper to be discontinued to'your address.”’ N

As MANY people are whitewashing at this season of the year, it may not be amiss to state that the wash will not rub off if the lime is thus*prepared: Mix half a pailful of lime and water; take half a pint of flour, make a starch of it and pour it hot into the whitewash ; stir it well. -

Tre Chicago Post, in speaking of the processlon of colored people who celebrated the XVth Amendment, in that ecity, says: ¢lt was a sight which the soul of old John Brown would stop marching on to see.” “Well, if it didn’t stop to ‘‘see” what . would it stop for?

< 1 DOTY'S WASHING-MACHINE Lately Much Improved—and the : New Universal Olothes-Wringer, ' Improved with Rowell’s Patent Double Cogwheels, and the Patept Stop, are now unquestionably far superior;to any apparatus for wash ing clothes ever inveénted, and will save their cost twice a year, by saving labor and clothes. i 'l'll‘hose who have used them give testimony as ollows: . .

.~ “We like our Machine much; eould not be persuaded to do without it, aud iwith the aid of Doty, we feel that we -are masters of the )?osition.” — Lev. L, Scott, Dishop M. F. Churck; © *“ltis worth one dollar a-week in any family.’ —~N. Y. Trsbune. i

* *ln_the laundry of ‘my house there is a per. petual thanksgiving on Mondays for the inven tion.”” — Rev. Theodore L. Cuyler. “Every week has given.it a stronger hold up on the affections of the inmatesof the laundry.’ — N.=Y. Observer. i

* “I heartily conimend it.to economists of time, money and contentment.”’ — Zev, Dy, Bellows. _ “Friend Doty—Your last improvement of the Washing Machine is a complete, success las sure you our Mechine, after a y*:gzr's use, i% today thought more of than ever, and would nai be parted with under any eircumsian€es.”’— Sa lon Robiison. . | -

“Yonr Washing Machine has/Ueen. in uée in our laundry, and ithe housekeeper expresses herself as highly pleased with it. It certainly accomplishes a greater amount of work, with less labor, and does not wear the clothes near 8o much as the old-fashioned wash-board - Wan. M F Bounds, Superintendent of Infant Department of St. Cathepines Nursery, N, Y. City. ““T have had one of the Universal Wringers in my house, and it has been used every week foy over five years, and is now as good as new. I have glso liad a Doty Washer for some three years, which we use everv week, and could not well get along without It is as good as ever, and will last years yet.— £ D, Van Slyck, £ itor of' Democratic Rep., Hamilton, N.'Y, The N. Y. Weekly é‘ri&unn, of Dec. 15, 1586 Y, in answer to a correspondent, says: “Of Weshers, there is none to be compared with Doty’s.'"

. PPrices—a Fair Offer. P “If the Merchants in vour place will not furnish; or send for the machines, send us the rétail price, Washer, $l4, Extra wringer %0, and we will forward either or both machines, free of frexght, to places where no ongis selling; and so sure are we they will be liked?t?hut weag.ee to refund the money if any oue wishes to rotuen the machines free of freight; after a month’s trial, according to directions. €

Ne-husband, father or brother should permit the drudgery of washing with the bands, fiftytwo days in the year, when it can be doné bétter, more expeditiously, with less labor, and no injury to'the garments,by a Doty Clothes Wash er, and a Universal Wringer. , : _Sold by dealers generally, to whom liberal discounts are made, ! : g R.:C.
