—There is talk of Gen. M. S. Hascall starting a newspdper at Goshen to fight corrupt political rings and snide financial institutions, which are said to exist there. The general, in a let ter to the South Bend Times, referring to the rumor, neither denies nor affirms it, but leads the reader to infer that such an enterprise on" his part is one
of the things likely to happen. The general has lots of money, plenty of public spirit and if he concludes to go into the fight will do as he did once before, ‘‘enlist for the war,”’ ‘—ii'l‘he Goshen Democrat of last week was in great demand in Ligonier, all because of an original poem from the pen of Editor Beane that appeared therein. The poem was certainly a remarkable production, ‘‘literally’’ speakingli and shows that the venerable editor’s muse is of the most versatile character, and soars with equal facility into the regions of the sublime or when occasion requires touch up those phases of human nature from which the| ordinary poetic temperament shrinks aghast. Billy’s muse is,! in short, attuned to any kind of a lyre ‘that his fertile fancy prompts and his keen sense of the ridiculous invites; ‘and he will not allow his rhyme to be impeded by any trifling orthographic squeamishness. - ; - —-This is the sort of weather that the Iceqold, foaming glass of lager beer is regarded by so many people as one of earth’s choicest luxuries. That it is a
healthy beverage, is beyond question, if drank with anything like a px‘c}f‘)ér degree of moderation. Those in Ligonier who love to quaff the inviting amber fluid these sultry days, are fortunate in being able to procure a beer that is thoroughly pure and free from all adulteration. Walder’s Ligonier beer is just such an article. Pure spring’ water, and the best malt and hops are all the ingredients that enter into it. It is brewed under the proprietor’'s personal supervision, who spares neither trouble nor expense in its manufacture, and justly prides ‘himself on its excellent quality. Itis petfectly safe to say that no better 'be¢r can be found anywhere. It isa spienid Wuis beveisge, palstable and HORREYa 0 e ee e 0

Baker, of the Commercial, did not receive the appointment. He was in every way deserying of it and should have got it. Our memory is not a very long one, but we can remember when Mr. Geo. S. Meeley was a very noisy and apparently .a very strong and sincere Democrat. But now it appears he is a good-enough .Republican to “‘take the cake.” Verily, the ways of the politicians are past finding out.
—Goshen will ‘have to pay about $650 tor allowing a poor sidewalk to go unrepaired until some one got hurt by means of it. Ligonier’s turn to pay damages' is very likely to come soon, if the town authorities don’t bestir themselves.
—Here is a timely suggestion from an exchange: ‘‘lf our farmer readers who haye horses in pastures fenced with barbed wire would plow a furrow or two around the pasture inside the fence, the danger would not be so great as without. The stock will be able to distinguish the line at night and thus avoid being horribly mangled, and perhaps killed.””
—The Fort Wayne Gazette has recently moved into new quarters, at 30 East Berry street, a building specially fitted up for it. The paper has also been dressed throughout in new type, has got new presses and folding machines, and is putting on other metropolitan airs. Itis an excellent newspaper, and we are pleased to notice these evidences of its prosperity. —Crowds of people went out to see the wonderful sight of the army worms and their ravages on the farm of Mr. Snyder, just east of town. The ground was covered with the pests, and they made short work of the green and tender portions of the rye. Prompt and earnest work seems to have prevented the worms from getting much beyond the little field in which they first developed. —Mishawaka Enterprise.
—The Middlebury Powell divorce case, which occupied the:court at Goshen for several days was brought to a elose on Friday, the conrt granting the plaintiff 500 alimony, the cus‘tedy of beth children, $2O a month support, and the defemdant to pay $lOO on the plaintiff’s attorney’s fees. f'l’he interest manifested by nearly the whole population of Middlebury was semething wonderfil and the sympathy of nearly the entire community seemed to be with Mrs. Powell. ~—The ‘‘Home Market"’ people are now shipping gold to Europe at the rate of about %4‘000.000 a week!

*My country ’tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I sing; Land where my fathers died, Land of the Pilgrim’s pride ! From every mountain side Let Freedom ring. Let music swell the breeeze, And ring from all the trees, Sweet Freedom’s gong.”
We pity the man, calling himself an American citizen, who can get up this morning, and as his waked up consciousness remembers the day it is and the events it celebrates, does not feel a thrill of exultation, of pride and gratitude permeate every fibre of his being. 'Where sentiment is dead patriotism ‘has no abiding place. The great heart of the American people—no matter ‘what their race, their lineage or th eir creed—this morning beats in unison in doing honor to this, our grand national ‘holiday; in reverencing the patriot fathers, through whose trials and sufferings and self-sacrifices we have inherited a political fabric of government that embraces the utmost freedom for the individual, combined with the most perfect security for the community. No other people on this globe ever enjoyed such privileges; and if degenerate politicians and soulless worshippers of mammon threaten to destroy this fair fabric of civil lib- ‘ erty and religious freedom, they will in the end find that their efforts are vain. As the years roll by the masses of our people become better educated and more intelligent, and better able to comprehend and appreciate the great benefits and blessings of our benign government. The evils that we are now laboring under, and they are many and grievous, will in due time be righted; and our people march on to greater triumphs and more glerious achievements than the wildest visionary among us would dare thismorning to prophesy. . ;}] In Ligonier the Fourth will be célebrated to-day in proper and patriotic style, and we trust that all will enjoy themselves. There will be musie, fireworks and enthusiasm and patriotic speeches and a variety of innocent games and amusements. The followis the | . PROGRAM. |

During the afternoon the Ligonier fire department will also give a fine exhibition.
~—There are two or three ladies’ secret societies organized in Columbia City. How long: the seccrets will be kept? ig, of course, ‘‘an open question.”’
—Last ¥riday the town board elected F. E. Hepler a member of the school board, in place of E. G. Thompson. Mr. Hepler's friends feel highly elated over his advancement, and it is to be heped that he will prove himself the right man for the place. When it 1s taken into consideration that the names of several other first-class citizens were considered, the compliment paid by the board to Mr. Hepler is a high one. —The Salvation Army has-been reorganized here during the lastfew days, and the command is now vested in new officers. During the early part of the week ugly rumors were rife regarding Capt. Smith, the young lady in charge. The reports were started by Capt. Wessler, another member of the army who was jealous of his superior officer. An investigation of affairs diselosed the fact that Wessler had stolen Capt. Smith’s money which turned up missing some days ago.. Monday last: Wessler confessed the theft of the money and signed a retraction of his stories regarding Miss Smith. :

BOLD BURGLARS.
Mier’s Bank Robbed at Noonda;é.\ One of the most daring robberies ever perpetrated here, occurred between twelve and one o’clock on Tuesday. At noon on that day, Mr. Westerfield, the bank cashier went, as usual, to the Waverly House to dinner, leaving on his desk some $2OO or $3OO in currency. He was gone about half an -hour and on his return found that some thieves had entered the bank through a side window in the alley that runs between Sisterhen’s store and the bank building, and had made away with all the currency that he had left on the counter. The job was very neatly and expeditiously executed, and how thieves succeeded in effecting it must puzzle even the best detectives. Right opposite the alley way on the opposite side of Cavin street is the store of Messrs. Dunning & Jackson, under whose sheltering awning these warm days, there are rarely less than four or five or more people gathered, and those standing or sitting there were in full view of the window referred to, which is only ‘a dozen steps or so from the corner of Cavin street. Then opposite the window, in a slightly diagonal direction, is a window of Sisterhen’s shoe store, commanding a full view of the bank window. through which tbe burglars entered. No more public or exposed ‘place in town could be selected for the perpetration of such a crime, and it is simply = amazing how the burplars )could have escaped detection. They ‘ effected an entrance by knocking out a ‘small piece of a cracked pane of glass, by which they were easily enabled to remove ' a wooden bar on the inside which secured the window. As the window is not over three feet from the ground, there was then no difficulty whatever in effecting an entrance. They made their exit through a rear door, and thence to the alley. There were a couple of strangers noticed loafing around town that day who are suspected of being the guilty parties, but so far, we believe, no tangible clew has been found that will warrant their arrest, even if they can be found.
