i : & o ™ Tlhe Ligoniev Banner, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 14, 1880. : : —The democratic jollification meeting is indefinitely postponed. : - — Wayne township dealt eruelly*with Uncle George Keehn. He deserved better treatment, | .—Well, yes; Democrats do feel somewhat blue. They were .not prepared for an earthquake. , —-There was a nice little dance at Kann’s Hall by a lot of the young folks on Thursday evening. —The Reépublicans have pretty much everything their own way just now. 1t will be otherwise by and by. . —Last Saturday night burglars entered C. S. Beckley’s house and “got away” with his purse containing $42 20 and a revolver. ’ - ~-For once the Republicans are convinced that there was one of the fairest elections held last Tuesday ever heard of in this State. ‘—A young man -was arrested on Sunday for assault and battery, and, wanting to leave, he was given a trial at once and fined $2 for his fun. —The Democrats of Ilkhart township did some excellent work last Tuesday. They are a live set of men when it comes to a square fight. ’ ~ .—lt was a subject of general remark that there was less jangling and quarreling on Tuesday than at any other election held in this place in many a yeay ’ _

—For the purpose of enabling us to publish reliable information in regard to Tuesday’s elections, we defer' the publication of THHE BANNER until Friday afternoon. ‘ . ‘—(Charley Inks makes a splendid showing everywhere except in Wayne township, where some underhanded game was played to euchre him out of a number of votes. - o _ - —Charley Inks led his ticket handgsomely at his own home—Perry. But for the U. S.Senatorship he would have received a good many more votes, so Republicans inform us. - - —The Fair last week was largely attended on Friday and Saturday, and the receipts were correspondingly good, considerable over $l,OOO, and consequently enough to pay all premiums in full. ’ -

—The political news which, as a faithful chronicler of current events, Tie BANNER is obliged to furnish its readers this week, is not such as we had fondly hoped to submit to their perusal. . : ' - —Clapp’s three-story block at Albion, was destroyed by fire Thursday evening of last week. The fire originated in the second story. Loss, $12,000; insured for &8,000. Damage on contents about $2,000. ; —Tuesday a “capitalist” offered to loan a poor Democrat $l5O to set himself up in business if he would vote the republican ticket. Another one offered to malke him a nice *“little” present if he would do likewise. —Senator elect Hostetter alleges that John C. New has issued a decree that for the next four years nothing shall be drank except Por;er and Hostetter bitters.. The right to issue such a decree is in some quarters disputed. ' —Now, boys, be reasonable. You ought not to expect a broad grin on the countenances of us Democrats. We can whistle while crossing a graveyard, but to smile at this particular moment is:i more than can reasonably be expected,

—One of our exchanges remarks that there is many a girl called a “daisy” before marriage, who after a few years looks like a faded *“buttercup.” There may not be much poetry in {his assertion, but there is a measure of truth in it. i g

—We are pleased to learn that the Deémocrats of Wayne township propose to buckle on their armor and at once re form their lines for the November contest. They hope to undo some of the things that were done last Tuesday. Lo

- —Albion has suffered a great loss by the destruction of. Clapp’s threestory block. No town in Northern Indiana has suffered so severely from fire as has Albion. These frequent conflagrations are very discouraging to men who invest their money in buildings. :

—Parson Tomlin undertook to reply to Col.. Cameron’s speech Thursday uight of last week. 1t was decidedly a weak effort, and conclusively proved that the Parson is woefully ignorant in regard to political issues. Ten years of close study .might possibly qualify him to respond to a man of Cameron’s ability as a ‘political speaker. . ‘ , )

- —That was a very consistent thing for a certain Wayne township Free Trader to do—induce Democrats to scratch Landers and vate for Porter; who made his canvass largely on the high protective tariff doctrine. Porter could easily be forgiven for being a protective 4ariff man, but Landers could not obtain pardon for favoring the preservation of greenbacks and the remonetization of silver. :

—On Tuesday evening of last week there was another fire on the Hawpateh, on the farm of Gideon Yoder, The facts are substantially as follows: While the family was spending a few minutes at their neighbors, Mr. Tumbleson’s, it was discovered that their barn was on fire, and before the alarm was given and rnieighbors could gather, the buildlng was past saving, and it was with great difficulty that any of the horses were rescued from the burning building. Three, however, ‘were saved, but one valuable horse perished in the flames. The barn and all its contents, consisting of about 18 tons of hay, about 700 bushels of wheat, a new reaper, grain-drill, plows, drags, harness, a wagon and buggy, and a variety of small articles, were consumed.. The whole losgs is placed «t $2,100; insurance, $750.. The fire was the work of an incendiary. There is no clue to the perpetrator of this diabolical outrage. .

Do Something.

Some philosopher writes the following, which some of our boys should ponder: A young man who works for his board, no matter what honest work he has, has no reason for shame A young man who eats the bread. of Idleness, no matter how much he Las, isdisgraced. All young men in starting in life ought to aim first of all, to find ‘a place where they can earn their bread and butter, with hoe, axe, spade, wheel-barrow, curry-comb, blackingbrush—ro matter how. Independence. first, The bread and butter question settled, let the young man perform his duty so faithfully as' to attract, and let him constant]y keep his eyes open for a chance to do better. About half of the poor, proud young men and: two-thirds of the poor disgraced young women are always out of work. The young man who pockets his pride and carries his upper lip as stiff ag a casy iron door-step scraper, need not starve and stands a chance to become rich if He earesto.

-Nine Southern Governors have written letters heartilyrindorsing Hancock’s manly stand against the payment of rebel and other war claims. When men like Governors Jeter of South Carolina, Marks of Tennessee, Stone of Mississippi, Cobb of Alabama, Jarvis of North Carolina, Colquitt or Georgia, Wiltz of Louisiana, and Miller of 'Arkansas, and ex-Governor Simpson of South Carolina, and Senators Wade, Hampton, John W. Johnston, M. C. Butler, and William Pinckney Whyteagree in declaring that Hancock’s letter meets their approval and that of the whole South,.the Southern Claims bugaboo may be regarded as effectually disposed of. ;

~ The Wabash Plaindealer tells of a Mrs. Brady being quite seriously injured by a vicious sow, near La Fontaine last week. She was returning from a visit to a neighbor’s accompaned by.her four-year old child. The sow, which had a litter of young pigs, first attacked the child, but the mother rescued it and threw it over the fence. The sow then turned on Mrs. Brady and bit and mangled her flesh in a terrible manner. She finally es-caped-from it, but has suffered considerably from her fright and loss of blood. . i ; el AP e e N.oBt==On the road between my residence and the depot at Ligonier, on Thursday night last, a lady’s single Beaver Shawl, grey aud black plaid with knotted fringe.

. Watterson's Opinion. e The Louisville Courier-Journal, in speaking of the result ot the election in Indiana and Ohio, says: *Precisely as the gain of Maine does not seem’ to have helped the Democrats in the West, may the gain of Indiana fail to help the Republicans in the East. Moreover, the history .of polities, like that of arms, shows many instances of battle losses in detail, which® have been more than recovered on the final engagement. In our sectional conflict the Confederates %won more isolated victories than the Federals. It was when the resources of the combattants were stretched to their fullest tension and the combat deepened into a fierce and final struggle all along the line that force prevailed and numbers proved decisive. The democratic party holds a numerical’ majority in this country. In Ohio and Indiana it has simply exhibited itself unable to cope with the massed material which the Republicans were able to put into the field. In Noyember the Republicans will'have to contend for twenty instead of two States, and thus spread out, it remains 10 be seen whether they can hold their owa. Our hope is ‘that the question is sufliciently open ‘to justify thoughtless men to renewed exertion and to make it a crime in those charged with the campaign to relax a single nerve.”

- - ,___?Q B e e Come on with Your Bonds, : Recently Mr. D. J.- Fallis, of the Merchants’ National Bank, of Cincinnati, expressed the opinion that in case of Hancock’s election four per cent. government bonds would fall to 00 cents. This opinion was published in the Cincinnati Commercial, and upon seeing the same, Mr. Theodore Cook, a democratic millionaire of the Queen City, wrpte Mr. Fallis, saying that if Hancock was elected President and as soon as that fact was ascertained, he (Mr. Cook) wou'd buy the $1,000,000 four per cent. bonds held by Mr. Fallis’ bank at par, thus giving the bank a chance [to make $lOO,OOO according to Mr. Fallis’ statement that the bonds would only be worth ninety cents on the dollar. Mr. Fallis would not - accept the proposition, which shows him to be an alarmist, and a bleody shirt shrieker, who does not believe the half he says.— Wabash Courver, - el S e Every Twenty Years. : " In the year 1820 there was no opposition to the re-election of. President Monroe, who received every electoral vote, save one from New Hampshire. In the year 1840 the democratic party, in the person of Martiir Van Buren, was expelled from power to give place to the Whig party under William Henry Harrison. | v i In the year 1860 the Democracy went overboard to be succeeded by the Republican, Abraham Lincoln. In the year 1830 may we not reasonably expect that the Republicans, led by DeGolyer Garfield, will retire to make room for the Democracy led Ly the pure and patriotic Hancock ?

. “I shall pay off my old debts as soon as I sell my grain, and be & free man again,” is the remark we overheard a few days ago, and from the lips of a farmer who has for some time been harrassed by debts which he was unable to meet. The bountiful crops of the season enable him to see his way clearly out of . the difficulty, and his determination to square up accounts first of all things is commendable. It is a rule of action that should govern our people generally. The man is indeed free who can say, “I do not owe a penny in the world.”—BSalem Democrat. | .
