-—Ligonier islooming up. Dorsheimer,Julian,Bristow and Nelson are coming here to talk to us on the political issues of the day.

It’s fun to be a candidate under such circumstan- ¢ Che little poster announcing the republican rally for next Tuesday, speaks of “I. B.

—After Freeman Kelly shall have spoken here, some ‘of our republican townsmen may possibly have occasion to regret having spoken lightly of his abilities. They will be convinced, even against their will, that there is a great deal more in Freeman than, they were disposed to admit heretofore.

—Mr. J. M. Knepper, agent at the L. S.'& M. S. depot in this place, has on sale tickets for the Chicago Exposition. Round tiip, and admittance to the exhibition, $4.75. This is but a trifle over half-fare, and will afford our'citizens a splendid opportunity to visit the city and exhibition at reduced rates. . ' —lWe are inforined that Hon. A. N. Martin addressed a large, appreciative and -enthusiastic audience at Rome City on Monday-evening. Hon. Free: man Kelley also spoke, his remarks eliciting rounds® of applause. The enthusiasm -for Kelley, wherever he speaks, is unbounded. He is after Baker with a sharp stick.

—We regret to learn that Elder R. S. Groves,' pastor of the Christian denomination of - this place, has econcluded to cease his labors her@, in order to accept & call ‘of the Christidn denomination at Elmore, Ohio. Elder Groves will preach his farewell sermon on the first Sunday of -October. He will be succeeded by Elder J. Hurd, of South Bend. s A —ln justice to the Republicans” of Ligonier we desire to say;that they did their best to procure a change of date for their Bristow and Nelson ral-ly-at this ‘place next Tuesday. That they failed to succeed is no fault of theirs, but is ‘'wholly attributable to the negligence of their State Central Committee and to the stubborness of the South Bend Republicans. —What object ean the Kendallville Standard have in- announcing ‘(conspicuously) that the joint discussion between Kelley and Baker, at Albion, will take place on “ Wednesday, Sept. 24th, at 10 o’clock p. m.,” when its edi‘tor was 'duly apprised of the correct dete afd hour, viz® Wednesday, Sept. 27th, at 1 o’clock p.m. Do the republican- managers expect to keep the people'away by the publication of such befuddled notices? =~ ; i

“- —The Republicans of ithis place raised a handsome Hayes and Wheel-' er pole on the corner near the Post-of-fice Building, last Saturday afternoon. Its height is nearly one hundred feet They had a torch-light procession, and quite a respectable crowd listened to a “ bloody shirt” speech by Hon. John 11. Baker. We have neither time nor space to review Mr. Baker’s speech; suffice it to say, that it fell far below popular expectation. It was not such a speech as-would naturally be expected from a‘man who claims to lave acted and voted independently in Congress. Ile was unjust and unfair in a number of his statements, and instead of proving hiinself an impartial and unprejudiced legislator, he exhibited himself in the character of a narrowminded, bitter and vrejudiced partisan. ‘lnstead of benefiting himself by his Saturday speéch, we know whereof we affirm when we say that he lost several votes by his fanatical utter‘ances, . e : -

| . KENDALLVILLE LOCALS. In my last week’s letter I neglected to mention the result of the Democratic nomination for township officers of Wayne township. The caucus was held on Saturday, 9th inst., at ;Kendallville, and resulted in the nom‘ination of J. W. Learned for Township Trustee, and George Bartlett for Assessor. Our meeting on Saturday last was quite a success. A good many people witnessed the raising of the Tilden’ E pole, 103 feet in length, with a 25 feet "red, white and blue streamer at its point, bearing the names of Tilden and Hendricks. With the exception of the delay occasioned by the raising of said pole everything passed off “well. The speeches made by Mr. A. N. Martin, candidate on the Demo- . cratic ticket for Reporter of the Supreme Court, and Capt. Mitchell, were excellent, and to the point. Every Democrat feels proud over them. The only thing to be regretted was, that Capt. Mitchell could only make a short speech. It was at first intended that he should speak at night, but the Republicans, with their proverbial cunning, had engaged Mitchell Hall, and placed large posters all over the city announcing - that Judge Morris of Fort Wayne would address them that evening. It was therefore decided to let Capt. Mitchell make his speech in the afternoon. After the captain had left for his home on the 5 .o’clock freight train, it was discovered that Judge Morris would not come, and it is now generally believed that Judge Morris knew nothing about his being expected to speak here that evening. As every Democrat is anxious to hear Capt. Mitchell at length, we are making arrangements to have him come back and address /fis at an early day.

Democrats of Kendallville * and vicinity, as well as Republicans, should come out and hear General MecCandless, of Pennsylvania, at Mitchell Hall, on Friday evening, Sept. 29th, and all such as’/ cannot attend should prepare themselves for the bi g demonstration to come off on QOctober

3rd, when IHon. Geo. W. Julian, and other speakers of national reputation, will address the people at this place. Beyond the expectation of everybody, doctors included, Charles Bill. man, who ‘was accidentally shot with a double-barreled shot-gun, is going to recover. .

- The Peter Cooper people of this county, commonly fermed Greenbackers, have met in convention and nominated a county ticket, and Kendallville is happy in having another candidate for Representative in the person of lder T. H. Stewart. We are now having a pretty certain chance of furnishing the Representative of Noble county. It the Elder is not elected, O. D. Willet certainly will be, although Mr. Geo. D. Hartsuck thinks that Orlando {vill win the race, because he (Hartsuck) is stumping the county for him. What induced Geo. D. to enlist in the interest of ‘Kimmel is a mystery to the good people of Kendallville, as he was known to be bitterly opposed to him immediately after the nomination; unless the rumor so current on our streets is correct that brother Hartsuck has entered into an agreement with the party managers to the effect that he is to deliver five speeches in the county for Orlando Kimmel, for which service he is to receive the'sum of three hundred dollars. Individually lam inclined to ‘believe this to be a canard, from the fact that the Republican -party managers are ‘too shrewd to squander their money in such a reckless manner. Why, bless you, for such a sum they might have procured the services ‘of Carl Schurz, who, as a. reformer, certainly would beat Bro. Hartsuck. " By the way, how is it with Carl? Has he really fallen from grace and been invited te step down and out by Zack. Chandler?’ ' " Our German club now numbers 86 members, and still they come. -A. C. F. Wichman, president of said club, is to address. them at their next meeting, on Friday evening, in. German Mr. Stoll, can’t you be present on that evening? i Reuben Miller and lady, William Hutt, Fred Reber and others, started for the Centennial last Monday. The conductor on the noon train of the Grand Rapids & Ifidiana R. R. said that he had then fifty Centennial visitors on his train. . L

_The weather is very fine at present, and farmers must not blame the weather clerk if they do not get through with -their farm - work this season. ' :

Let everybody who is able, go to Ligonier on Tuesday next,to hear Lieut.-Governor Dorsheimer, Tilden’s right hand bower. ~ ~ ARGUS.

Tue FAIR.—We are having very fine weather for the Fair. There.are a large number of entries, and the attendance 1s very good to-day. - The display in the various departments is very creditable indeed, and will compare favorably with that of previous years. The exciting races that are to come off to-morrow will draw a large cr(}wd, and is awakening quite an interest among admirers of fast horses. The list of premiums will not be published until week after next.

COLUMBIA CITY ITEMS.

. We were favored with a fine democratic speech here last.week. Schurz, the great German republican orator, addressed the faithful few Republicans who turned out to hear their favorite speaker. But alas!they went away ' feeling blue, for he' informed them that he was down on the Graut party. We ask, who compose the Grant party? Is it not such men as Morton, Conkling, Chandler, and their followers? Is it not Hayes and those who vote for him? We think yes." Our town now boasts of eight or ten beautiful hickory poles, ranging in hight from 75 to 120 feet; also, a Tilden and Hendrick’s club of over 60 members, fully uniformed. . We are to have a new bridge ‘across the “raging” Blue river on Main street. Wheat looks well in this vicinity, notwithstanding the more than abundant rain fall. it Our county fair cdmmences on the 26th inst. : ‘ 5 .- Sept. 18, 1876, ' O, N. CEMORE,

: Schoel Meeting. ey There has been considerable opposition to the rules and regulations of four public ‘schools and the course of study adopted by our School Board, ‘principally brought about by street discussion and- denunciation of the matter by those who, as is now quite apparent, know the least about it. On Tuesday evening of this week, pursuant to a call of the disaffected, a large meeting, called by the “patrons of the school,” assembled in the Town Hall “to pass resolutions pertaining to the books, rules and regulations of-our school.” E. J. Dodge, Esq.,"was appointed chairman of the meeting, ‘when by a motion of the house he was authorized to appoint a committee of five to drait the resolutions referred to in the notice. But_the chairman ‘ failed to find a committee who would act, as nearly all such as were capable of drawing up any resolutions promptly refused to serve, announcing that tfiey endorsed the rules and regulations as made and enforced by the Trustees. 5 .

By request, Prof. Burrier then read and explained the rules to the meetdng, upon which a general discussion ensued. Mr. Dennis then moved that ‘the rules and regulations of our 'schoolf as they now stand, and the action of the trustees relative thereto, be endorsed by this meeting, which ‘motion; after a full discussion, was passed by a vote of nearly 3 to 1, and thus an’ indignatién' meeting was turned into a ratification meeting, Mr. Dudge, after the above action had ‘been taken, expressed the hope that all opposition to the rules established by the Board :would now cease, and that there would be ne- further contention over this' matter. The meet-. ing had decided in favor of the action of the Boatd, and that should end this controversy. | This sentimient was received with manifestations of approval. The meeting thereupon ad-. journed,-it being generally conceded that considerable misunderstanding had been ‘removed, and much good done by the moderate and candid statements of Prof. Burrier and others. ] < ° The ln(lepenfifiunty Ticket. The Independent (Greenback) Convention, at Albion, last. Friday, nominated the following couuty ticket: Representative, Rev. T. 11. STEWART,’ of Kendallville; Clerk, Wi W.
