THURSDAY, JANUARY 22, 1891,

Tue California pioneers held a re union at the Grand Pacific hotel, Chieago, last Monday. A number of Indianians participated.

SENATOR INGALLS is still hopeful of being re-elected. The Kansas Alliance people. on the other hand, say he is certain to be defeated. Time will tell.

It is given out that President Harrison will not veto a free coinage bill if shorn of some of the objectionable features that attach to the senate bill. Everybody is interested in having the silver question definitely and finally settled as speedily as possible.

THE Michigan salt trust is about to expire by limitaticn. ‘l'rusts generally are going to pieces. Public sentiment is against them. Those that refuse to disband veluntarily will be legislated out of existence within a very few years. The popular will still counts for something in this country, thank God! .

CONGRESSMAN MOORE, of Texas, says that of the entire congressional delegation from that state omnly three now favor Mr. Cleveland's nomination to the presidency. He is quite emphatic in declaring that Mr. Cleveland’s views onthe currency question are decidedly ebjectionable to the Texas Democracy. o o

. Ex-MAYOr CarTer H. HARRISON, of Chicago, announces that in case Gen. Palmer cannot be elected U. S. senator from Illinois he will become # candidate himself. He wants the Democrats to loyally stand by Palmer as long as there 1s a hope of his election, but when that,shall have become impossible, Carter proposes to shy his caster into the ring and try his luck in the senatorial race. .

Tae ArrempT of Gov. Thayer, of Nebraska, to prevent Mr. Boyd, his lawfully chosen successor, from getting possession of the gubernational chair, proved a dismal failure. Gov. Boyd now has full possession of the office to which he was elected by the people of Nebraska. But the Farmers' Alliance people still talk of ousting him and putting their candidate in his place. It is not probable that this high handed scheme will succeed. '

HonN. WM. S. GROESBACK, the ablest Democrat in Ohio, recently remarked that the more he studied the public utterances of Gov. Hill the more favorably he was impressed with the eminent ability of their author. He thinks it would be extremely unwige for the Democrats to nominate any one for the presidency who is not reasonably certain of carrying New York, and gives it as his judgment that Gov. Hill is more likely to be able to do this than any other individual now named in that connection. :

THERE is general rejoicing in demo:

cratic circles over the nomination of Dr. Gallinger as the republican caucus nominee for U. S. senator from New Hampshire, tosucceed the long-winded and somewhat cranky Blair. Dr. Gal. linger is a Republican, but not of the Bill Chandler stripe. He believes there ought to be decency in pelitics as well as in other matters. This fact has brought upon him the displeasure of Chandler and his followers, who did their utmost to prevent his nomination by the legislative caucus. :

- Tuis is the New York World’s view of the matter: ‘“The nomination of Ex.-Gov, Richard Oglesby for senator by the Republican legislative caucus in Illinois is a severe set-back for Senator Farwell. If the Farmers’ Alliance members were sincere in their revolt against the Republican pelicy they will vote for and elect Gen. Palmer. Three-quarters of a loaf ought to be

regarded by them as better than the old crust. Gen. Palmer stands for nearly everything that the farmers want, and he can serve them better than any new and inexperienged man.”’ Tae New York Wo%d. though favorable to a liberal silver policy, is very much opposed to the free coinage bill passed by the senate last week. The World contends that if the biil referred to should be concurred in by the house and made a law, it ‘‘would simply open up a market here for the silver of the world at a premium. The secretary of the treasury would be a purchaser of silver worth $1.06 an ounce for $1.24. Naturally every one - who has silver to sell will seek so liberal a purchaser. We shall find no difficulty in procuring all the silver that can be absorbed or that can find storage-room. ‘The owners of the silver mines will be the espsecial beneficiaries of the law, for they will haye a constant and solvent market for the sale of all they can produce, which is ‘very much more than is shown by ex- _ isting statistics of mine production. The bill is primarily for the benefit of the mine-owners, who naturally faver a measure that advances the price of their product from 20 to 22 per cent.. and maintains it at a fixed point, from which the market price must naturally’ recede.”” Carl Schurz also declares! himself strengly against the bill, and thinks if the true character of that measure were explained to the people, they would become strongly aroused _agsinst it Lo

THERE ought to be no hesitancy on the part of congress to promptly pass the Owen bill to put a stop to foreign countries sending their paupers, criminals and lunatics to this country and filling our bznevolent and plenary institutions with them. The congressman who imagines that he will offend our naturalized citlzens by voting for such a kill is greatly mistaken. They, above all others, are for obvious reasons are interested in having none but reputable people come to our shores. Public sentiment demands some effective legislation on this subject, and representatives or senators who refuse te act in conformity with this sentiment are pretty certain to be rebuked for their cowardly and indefensible conduct.

It 1s saip that Igngtius Donnelly, the versatile Minnesota politician who has been a member of every. political party that has had an existence during the past thirty years, hopes to be the Farmers’ candidate for president in 1892. Ignatius is a mighty smart fellow, a capital speaker, and a charming writer. He achieved a world-wide notoriety by undertaking to show that Wm. Shakespeare is not the real author of Shakespeare’s works. His showing has baffled a good many who were disinclined to accept his version of that matter. Donnelly is a Philadelphian by birth, was originally a Democrat, elected to congress by the Republicans of one of the Minnesota districts, and is now an Alliance member of the Minnesota legislature. It is needless to say that he will never be president of the United States.

PROTECT THE BIRDS.

Prof. W. S. Blatchly read a very interesting and instrfictive paper at Lhe meeting of the Farmers’ Institute at Terre Haute recently, on the subject of birds. He enumerated many of the species which find abiding places or temporary homes in Indiana; placing the number at from 300 to 325. He grouped and named 215, and said in conclusion of kis able address:

Looking back over the 215 birds included in the above we find but six which can be said to do more harm than good, namely: three hawks, one owl, the crow and the English sparrow. Of the 209 remaining species 108 feed during their entire lives almost exelusively upon insects, while at least forty of the others feed their young upon them. -

- When we take into consideration the fact that, according to the best authorities,the annualdamage wrought to farm products by insects in the United States is over 500 millions of dollars, and that birds form the only important check upon the increasing numbers of these pests, we can begin to understand the value of these insectiverous species to our farmers. And yet the highest ambition of hundreds of amateur sportsmen in our towns and cities, and, in many instances, of the farmer’s sons themselves, is to kill a dozen or more ‘‘red heads,” “yellow-bammers]’ and ‘“robins in a day, leaving them, usually, where they fall. Thus myriads of these friends of agriculture are annually sacrificed to satisfy the craving desire of man to kill objects beneath him in the scale of life, or because he knows nothing of their beneficial habits and thinks when he sees a flock of birds in a grain tield or fruit orchard that they are there to injure rather than to protect his interests. ;

One method -of stopping this wholesale destruction of bird life is to introduce the study of zoelogy into the common schools. Let the famer’s son be taught that over 300 kinds of birds are found in our state and 290 in any county of it, within a year. Let him be taught the family characters, names and value as insect destroyers of the ‘more common forms, and eight times out of ten he will develop an interest in the bird fauna of the farm, and he will learn for himsell facts concerning its daily life, migration, ete., which will be invaluable to him as a farmer and make of him henceforth a friend te all bird life. i

Meanwhile, to each farmer I would say, encourage the birds, protect them, drive them not from you. | Observe them, study their habits, notice how their whole lives are given for your benefit, and although at times thsy may seem to be doing you an injury be lenient and patient with them, and they certainly at some time or another, will repay you more than ten fold all that they may have taken from you.

AMERICAN EXTRAVAGANCE.

1t has often been said that the French nation can live on what the American wastes, and no one sees this better than Max O’Rell, who has this to say in the January North American Review: “The thing which perhaps strikes me most disagreeably in the American hotel dining room is the sight of the tremendous waste of food that goes on at every meal. No European, I suppose, can fail to be struck with this; but to’a Frenchman it would naturally be most remarkable. In France,where I venture to.say people live as well as anywhere else, if not better, there is a horror of anything like waste of good food. It is to me, therefore, a repulsive thing to see the wanton manner in which some Americans will waste at one meal enough to feed several hungry fellow creatures. In the large hotels conducted on the American plan there are rarely fewer than fifty different dishes on the menu at dinner time. Every day and at every meal you can see people order three or four times as mueh of this food as they could under amy circumstances eat, ‘and picking out and speiling one dish after another, send the bulk away uneaten. [am bound to sa(,{ that this practice is not only observed in hotels where the charge is 8o much per day. but in those conducted on the Enropean plan—that is to say, where you pay for everything you order. There 1 notice that peopfz proceed in much the same wasteful faghion. [t ig evidently not a desire to have more thau fs paid for, but simply & bad and, ugly habit. I hold that about¢ five bundred hungry people could be fed out of the waste that is goinﬁ on at such large hotels as the Palmer House and the Grand Pacific Hotel of Chicago, and I have no doubt such five hundred hungry people could easily be found in Chicage.” :

This, the New Albany Ledger says, is a plain statement of an everyday

fact. The waste of the hotel is but a reflex of the extravagance in private home life. A good deal of ill living or poor living comes from lack of knowledge how to utilize our resources. From the smallest lack of kitchen economy to the wasting of the public lands, cutting down forests, destroying fish aud game— we do everything in a ruthless, destructive way. We grow rich because the limit of waste has net been reached. Tlhe farmer still thinks ‘he can leaye his mowing machine out in the weather all winter and find it cheaper to buy anew one in the spring. So in the kitchen too often a dinner for a Frenchman is thrown into the slop barrel and a new roast purchased. At the beginning of this new year the chief matter of reform to be considered is that of the kitchen and the cook'ing school. 1t is quite as important as ballot reform. : . NO TIME FOR CROAKING. In the columns of a despairing contemporary, says an exchange, we find the following expression, which should be quoted if only to illustrate the capabilities of human folly: What hopes does the future contain for any lover of this republic? At Washington the chosen representatives of the people are engaged in a struggle, not for the good of the country but each for his own selfish ends. In the capitals of the various states legislatures are at work to prevert rather ‘than support the constitutions and laws they have sworn to support. Boodle is king. There is no man so able, so unselfish or so patriotic that he may hope tn compete in the fierce struggle for power with Jay Gould and the Mamman worshiping throng that he leads. The patriotic spirit on which this government was founded and which is so necessary to its perpetuity no longer rules. It is an age of hopeless and shameless corruption. All of which is unspeakable nonsense. When was the period in the histery of this or any other country, that was not befogged by just such croaking as this? Was it the glorious revolutiomary period to which our dyspeptic contemporary refers? Why, in 1776 (most olorious of all years), John Adams wrote to his wife: :

There is too much corruption even in this infant age of our republic. Virtue is not in fashion. Vice is not infamous. The spirit of venality is the most dreadful and alarming enemy America has to oppose. It is as rapacious and insatiable as the grave. *-* * ] am ashamed of the age Ilivein. Three years later John Jay wrote to Washington from the capital: There is as much intrigue in this state heuse as in the Vatican, but as little secrecy as in a beatding sehool. ~ In 1778 Gerard, the French: minister, wrote to Vergennes: The birth of the republic is not rendered glorious by disinterestedness. The spirit of gain is widely active. Cupidity is one of the distinctive characteristics of the Americans, especially of the north. The sufferings of Washington’s army at Valley Forge are a favorite theme for the extollers of past and gene heroism. But it is not always remembered how much of this hardship was due to the wicked wastefullness of politicians. On that subject there is the testimony of the frugal DeKalb: The war fund pays a good many bills that could not well be made public. I have no doubt that the contractors make fifty per cent. on every contract, not to speak of the other defraudations, the mere enumeration of which would be endless. It is impossible for one who has grown up in the ‘midst of order and discipline to accustom himself to the indolence of these people. . And on the same subject Luzerne, the French minister, wrote: »

It is difficult to form a just conception of the depredations which have been committed in the management of war supplies. * * * About nine thousand men employed in this service received enormous salaries and devoured the subsistence of the army while it was tormented with hunger and the extremes of want.

And, not to multiply examples, so it has always been. Never was the age 0 golden but that it contained abundant evidence of human weakness, selfishness and corruption. Our age may be no better than the others, but is no worse. We are of the earth earthly. Yet, for the man whese visien is clear and whose heart and liver are in good condition, there is always a glorieus prospect ahead of human betterment, slowly but surely progressing. :

How He Stopped a Leakage in the Oats Bin. A certain young Haw-Patch farmer noticed a leakage in his oats bin, so one night thought he would stop it with the old shet gun. He prepared the old gun and about one o’clock in the night he discovered the leak—it was in anether man'’s sack. Theyoung man let him fill his sack. He took good measure, settled his sack, tied it as leasurely and contented as if he was right at home, and, putting the sack upon his shoulder, was coolly passing out the door when the right end of the «old shot gun was pointed at him and the contents of both barrels were let fly. Such a sight was never witnessed before. The old gun kicked the young farmer over. The thief and all his belongings flew in every direction; sack of oats, hat, coat, vest, pants, everything but his shirt, and the tail of that flew gtraight out behind. i e : Dissojution Natice, l The cogartnership, in the horse and bugyey business heretofore existing between Sol Mier, Leoggld ‘Bolomon_and Leopold Loeser under t%e m name of Mier & Co., has been dissolved by mptnal consent, Sor, MIER. - i:ggpgm %%Lomgu.

FIELD OF FAIRS.

Annual Meeting of Ohio and Indiana Field of Fairs at Waterloo. : The annual meeting of the Ohio and Indiana Field of Fairs was held at Waterloo on Thursday, January 15, 1891. The meeting was called to order by Hon. Frank McCertney, president of the Field. The following fairs were represented: : Waterloo, Ind., by R. N. Crooks and M. Kipliuger, president and secretary of the association; Angola, Ind., by F. McCartney, secretary; Montpelier, 0., by J. C. Holloway, treasurer; Hicksville, Ohio, by W. A. Harter, president, and T. G. Dowell, secretary; Auburn, Ind:, by John L. Davis, president,. and Mr. Culbertson, treasurer; Kendallyille, Ind., by J. 8. Conlogue, secretary; Bremen, Ind., by Mr. Carpenter; South Bend,-Ind:, by Hon. R. M. Lockhart. Geshen and Ligonnier were not represented, though Ligonier sent a letter asking to be considered as a member, and expressing regret that their secretary, owing to the death of a brother, could not be present. ; The matter of passes was brought up and discussed at length, together with the prices and privileges on fair grounds and matters of like character. When it became apparent that there was considerable range or difference in the manner in which such things were treated by the different societies, and all realizing the importance or advisability of adopting certain rules which might become common or gen‘eral with all, Mr. Harter moved that the president appoint a committee of three to formulate some plan for the government of all societies on the different points mentioned. This motion prevailed- and the president appointed M. Kiplinge, T. G. Dewell and J. C. Helloway, and requested them to repert at the evening session. An adjournment was then taken until after supper. : 1 The evening session was called to order at 7:30, when the previously! mentioned committee made the follow- | ing report: We respectfully recom'—| mend. ‘ First, That no privileges be seld for less than $5, and that in all cases 50 per cent. shall be paid before settmg! up, and that invariably the other 50 per cent. shall be paid the morning of the third day, on or before 9 o’clock. Second, That each $5 paid for a privilege entitles the grantee to one pass if it is found necessary, and at the discretion of the secretary. Third, That horse stalls at $1 each for both sped and exhibition. the holder in the latter case being required to purchase a pass good during the fair. That stalls be free and exhibitors purchase a ticket, for self and each helper. s - Fourth, Would suggest that each secretary at once make out a copy of received for different privileges in 1890, and forward to the secretaries of the several fairs of the circuit. - Fifth, That each secretary keep a ‘““dead beat’’ list and furnish same to to secretaries of other societies. Mr. Lockhart moved to take up and consider each suggestion separately. Concurred in. The first clause, that no privileges be seld for less than $5, and that at least one-half the price agreed upon be paid on or before the purchaser takes possession or sets up his place of business, and that the balance be paid on or before the third day of the fair, not later %han 9a. m., was agreed to. A pass to be given to each $5 paid, provided in the discretion of the secretary such passes are required. The third clause, with reference to charging for stalls, owing to the diversity of custom of the different societies, was not concurred in, but the following suggestion was addopted: That we recommend each society to charge $1 each for horse stalls, including straw for bedding, and that all exhibitors of stock be sold an exhibitor’s ticket for twenty-five cents; other stalls and pens free, and that we request all societies to make rules to carry out the foregoing as nearly as practicable, that all exhibitors may in this manner be subjected to same regulatioms, privileges, etc., believing that uniformity in these matters will inure to the best interests of all concerned. - . The last clause in the committee’s report requiring secretaries to furnish all other secretaries in the field with a copy of or statement of the prices ob‘-‘ tained for different privileges for 1890, together with a list of dead beats, non‘payers and undesirable privilege men, was concurred in heartily, especially the latter part of recommendation. Mr. Lockhart moved that it is the sense of this meeting that exhibitors of agricultural implements should not be charged an admission fee but that superintendents of such departments exercise prudence and judgment in issuing the proper amount of passes, ete. . The dates fixed for holding fairs for 1891 were ascertained to be as follows: South Bend, 1nd..............5ept. 15 Anburn, Ind . . o 0 0l Ligonier:dnd .. ... . 0008 15 Montpelier, 0hi0......,,..... * 15 Hisksville, 0h10:...v. .. .00 5 299 Angoby, Ind... ... oo 20 Kendallnille, 1nd............. *S. 23 Bremen, lad.. ... ..o a 0 %090 Waterloo, 1nd........ ..l Ot . B Some discussion arose cencerning the dates of the Auburn and Mont‘pelier fairs and fears were entertained that both oceprring on the same week would cause seme annoyance and disaster to both societies. The representatives present of each seciely, not feeling authorized to make changes in dates, the further censideration of the matter was deferred until each society conld properly look the matter over. No doubt one or the ether will conclude to go one week earlier. o ‘The secretary of the field was directed to procure at least 100 large posters for each fair in the field, the same to be paid for and distributed judicionsly|

by each society, the kind, size, ete., to be similar to those used on former years. He was also directed to have. inserted in two sporting or herseman papers, advertisements of the field, the same to be paid for proportionately by each society. ' He was further instructed to publish a sufficient amount of speed circulars containing the speed list of each fair, 250 at least to be paid for and distributed by each society. Each society by mutual agreement is required to have a small advertisement ingerted in the columns of local papers in their respective towns, giving the name .of fair, time of holding, and name of secretary of each fair in the field of fairs. It was also agreedothat each fair shall devote at least one page of their respective premium lists for‘ ‘advertising the field of fairs. - The election of efficers for the ensuing" year resulted in the re-election of ‘Hon. F. McCartney, of Anmgola, for president, and J. S. Conlegue, of Kendallville, for secretary. Adjourned to meet Friday morning at 9 a. m. The meeting was one of unusual interest and all present seemed in the best of spirits and harmony, and a kindly feeling prevailed. Many subjects and points of mutual interest which we haye failed to notice, were brought up and discussed. Several excellent speeches were made by R. N. Crooks, W. H. Harter, R. M. Lockhart, J. C. Holloway and others, giving their experience, advice, etc. Indeed it was an interesting meeting. If such meetings could be held oftener and an interchange of ideas and a comparison of methods indulged in by the managers and workers of enterprises of this kind, more good could be accomplished.

AROUND ABOUT US,

TheSayings and Doings ofOur Neighbors

John Garrity, manager of the Transfer and Storage Company at Fort Wayne, committed suicide by shooting himself last Fr,ic%y evening. He had been suffering for months from neuralgia and insomnia. -

‘Annie Reinhart, a young gi;irl', comsmitted suicide at Waterloo last Tursday by thrusting herself through the ice into the waters of a stream near that place. It is said she was crossed in love and sought peace in death. At the annual meeting of the Elkhart County Agricultural Society held at Goshen last Saturday the following officers were elected: President, E. D. Chipman; Vice-President, Allen Cook; Secretary, Thomas A. Starr; Treasurer, W. H. Miller.

~ At Elkhart Norman Sparklin, aged 15 years, was in a tree endeavoring to break off a dead limb, when he was precipitated to the ground by its breaking. He fell twenty feet and sustained a break of the right arm and dislocation of the right wrist, besides numerous bruises end contusions. He will recover. .

Last Thursday morning at his home at Auburn, Hon. W. H. Dills, a wellknown attorney and democratic politician, died very suddenly of heart disease. Mr. Dills was the candidate for circuit judge in the DeKalb, Steuben and Noble district in 1882 and was defeated by Judge Mcßride. He was 54 years of age. - i Several days since Leouis Ghoul, of Elkhart, ate fifty raw oysters daily at a sitting, for a period of two week on a wager. Now comes Ammon Smith, a cigar maker, who proposes to go him ten better and eat sixty raw oysters at each sitting for a period of fourteen days, the loser to pay 85, the oysters also te be paid for by the loser. ' Bishop Dwenger, of Fort Wayne, has addressed a circular letter to the Catholic clergy in his diocese, appealing for aid fo the destitute in Ireland. He states that because of failure of the October crops the bisheps of Ireland have made a personal appeal to their co-religonists in America, and unless aid is given nothing short of starvation and death is to be expected.

Mrs. Frances Calkins is the second woman arrested 'in this county for murder. Away back in the 30’s an old peddler mysteriously disappeared near Benton, and suspicion rested on a man and a ,womamn whose names are not at hand.. The man escaped, but thex\woman was arrested, and through some sharp practice, which can be detalled by Dr. Latta, she escaped punishment.—Goshen News. ;

Miss Nellie Brockway and Miss Cramer, of Ft. Wayne, after dressing for a masquerade skating carnival, concluded to have a lark with their immediate nei%hbors, and they frightened seyeral ladies with their unexpected appearance. Lastly they presented themselves at the door of Mrs. Kebinson, colored, and this woman, in her fricht, attacked them with a heayy broom, in which Miss Brockway was severely injured. A Fort Wayne telegram says that a nomber of spurious $5 silver certificates are floating about in that vicinity the banks of Fort Wayne having received a number of them in the deposits last week. The bill is of the department series of 1886, check letter B, signed by W. S. Rosencrans, registrar, and Isaac W. Hyatt, treasurer. The paper is poor, thin and of a yellowish tint. The red threads throughout the good bill are cleverly imitated on the bad one by red lines drawn on the back. The vignette of General Grant is a very peor imitation of the original. Con A Warsaw correspondent says that some time past the corn crib, of John Bruner, a farmer, suffered greatly from ‘the nocturnal visit of thieves. 'lyg save ‘his corn, he brought an old-time foxtrap into requisition, remaeying the roof of the erib in order to place it, and fixing the trigger immediately in front af the hole through which so much ef the yellow grain disappeared. In the morninﬁ he visited his corn-crib, and there, with his arm securely held by the tr&:ip, cowering and shivering with cold, stood Frank Simms. Bruner called in a number of his neighbors, showed them his “catch' and then removed the weight from Simms’ arm. - :

I'wo Elkhart youths, according to the Review, followed two young ladies whom they admired, as they were going home from an entertainment the other evening, being actuated by the desire to ask the pleasure of accomany them home, butlacking the pluck fo ask for the privilege. The girls gave them every gncouragement byt to no purﬁ;ose. The next day each of the young ladies addresged an envelape to each of the young men, contajning s quantity of sand, as a hint that t%mt quality was lacking in their admirers’ make-nps. The same day they received mail orders from the two bashful individpals for two car loads of sand. The girls haye given their cases up as a bad job, where there is such a shaortage of material so necessary in a man’s make-up.
