Or THE six candidates on the democratic New York state ticket, four are known as pronounced Cleveland men —Meyer, Duffey, Rosendale and Maynard, but still the mugwump newspapers are not satisfied. :

THE total vote in Indianapolis at.the recent election was 29,578 against 25,718 two years ago. In that election Sullivan received 14,320 votes and Herod 11,599. On, Tuesday Sullivan received 13,250 votes and Denny 16, 328.

THE secretary of the treasury reports to the senate that 5,690,407 ounces of fine silver were exported from this country in July last, and 8,117,447 ounces in ;August. There must be a large demand for our silver somewhere. .

THE republican papers are getting a great amount of consolation out of the Indianapolis election. Nobody - begrudges them all the fun they can have —it has been so long since they have flad any opportunity to congratulate themselves. <

- IT 13° GREATLY to the credit of the national banking system that, of the 156 national banks which haye suspended since the first of January, seyenty-three have resumed business, and not a dollar has’ been lost by the holders of the notes, even of fhose national banks which haye not resumed. = :

1T SEEMS singular, nevertheless it is true, according to the Augusta News; that in the great cot‘ton-produiing state of Georgia there is one county that has never produced a bale of cotton. The county in question is Union, with an area of 325 square miles. The surface is mountainous and is extensively covered with forests. [

A RECENT meeting of horticulturists discussed the question, “‘lf all kinds of apples but one weré to be discarded, what kind should be retained as the best for all purposes?’’ The sentiment of the meeting was so divided between the Baldwin, the Northern Spy and the Rhode Island Greening that the question remained undetermined.. .

ACCORDING to a letter published in the Kendallville Sun, written by a rank Republican, the nprosperity of the country all depends upon the outcome of the Ohio election.. If McKinley is re-elected prosperity will return. MeKinley will in all human probability be elected and the country will prosper but the fool that makes the latter conditional upon the former is entitled to the leather medal. -

PrAYING by machinery is usual amoug inhabitans of central Asia, A large, hollow, cylinder-like drum -is erected and within it are ‘enclosed the prayers that any onemay wish to offer, written out neatly. The cylinder is then made to revolve by wind or waterpower, and every time that it goes around the devotee imagines it to be equivalent to a verbal repetitiofi of all the prayers it contains. |

THE Poultry Monthly says that one of the best paying farms in the state of New York consists of only five acres. The owner breeds White Leghorns, and sells bushels of eggs at 80 ceuts per dozen throughout the year. In addition to the poultry business, he raises small fruits, and to see his well-kept ~rows of raspberry, blackberry and currant bushes, and his neat poultry yards is sufficient evidence of his prosperity. ° | .

SEVENTEEN protestant ministers of Columbus, Ohio, have issued a manifesto in opposition to the anti-Catholic crusade inaugurated by the A. P. A. in that city. These gentlemen say that while they do not agree with:the doctrines and dogmas .of the. Catholic church, they nevertheless strongly disapproye the unscrupulous and unchristain warfare waged against that church by the aforesaid proscriptive and oathbound organization. |

~ THE cup which the victorious yacht America brought home from England forty-two years agc has been challenged by English yachtsmen and suecessfully defended seven times. The Valkyrie is the eighth English yacht that has attempted to win it back.- Its intrinsic value is only $250, but several millions have been expended in contests forlts possession. It 1s estimated that $700,000 have been expended this year in vessels, salaries, wages, etc,, in preparations for the race that again makes it an American trophy. : ; e

ONE of the best illustrations of what _can be done by good printers, excellent paper, & modern press and elegant engravings that has ever come under our notice, is the publication, The Book of the Fair, by Hubert Howe Bancrott. It isindeed a masterpiece of fine printing and is as interesting as beautiful.. So tar three numbers of twenty-five pages each have been issued and what promises to .be a most interesting history of the fair has fairly begun. Illustrations of all of the interesting features of the great fair .will find places in the book while its 1,000 ‘pages will give an elaborate history of everything illustrated. ©

‘Some of the civil seryice examinations elicit funny answers. ‘‘Give an explanation of the nullification troubles in South Carolina,’”” was one of the tasks assigned to a class in an examination in American history. ¢The nullification troubles in South Carolina,” was oune reply, *‘‘were in regard to the constitution, whether it should be null or void. Some wanted it null and otbers wanted it void.”” :

TareE republican papers who have been talking so glibly about the rush for places under the present administration might find something else to talk about in the same strain by posting up on Indianapolis politics. Since the republican victory in that city last week the mayor has been overwhelmed with office seekers There are now 900 applicatiouns on file in his office for places and 1,580 applications have been flled on the police and fire department forces alone. i

"THE LATE overwhelming defeat of the _democratic ticket at Indianapolis does not seem -to have caused very ‘much excitement in party circles oyer the state. It was not unexpected nor wholly unfieseryed. The average democratie voter is inclined to be a i“little too independent to allow a par‘ticular set of men to run things to ‘their own hiking without rebuke. The defeat came at a time and under such aircumstances as to make it possible for the party to be reorganized for the |next and more important election. '

GENERAL Daniel E. Sickles has returned to Washington after a yisit to the fair which he praises unstintediy. His only regret is that it was not held at the national capital. —Those magnificent and indescribable buildings,” he says, ‘‘would not have only been monuments to future generaatioiis, but they could have been utilized for housing our already overcrowded government departments. With that fairy city here Washington would -have become at once the most magnificent capital on the footstool. “Itis a great pity that those grand buildings will soon disappear as mist before the sun; when they could-have been made a joy forever and of great practical use.”

St Louts is already in” the field for the next *World’s Fair,”” in 1903, to celebrate the hundredth anniversary of the acquisition of the territory of Louisiana by the United States. #he treaty was made in 1803, but the actual transfer of the territory did not take place until the following year. One feature of the celebration already determined on is the dedication of a monument to Thomas Jefferson. The territory acquired by the treaty with France embraced about 1,500,000 square miles or half the present area of the United States, and twice their area at that time. From this territory have been made the states of Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, lowa, Minnesota, North and South Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, Wyoming, Nebraska and Kansas. :

GENERAL Jas. B. WEAVER, the Populist candidate for president last year, in a recent speech said: “If two panics in twenty years is the best the Republican party ean give us, they had better step aside and give another party a chance. There are more people, more work, more factories and more of,everything that should make a nation prosperous than ever it was before, and still our present condition confronts us. . The situation of today was not caused by the election of a.democratic administration. The administration of today is still enforcing Republican laws.”” Republican papers and politicians are very much out of sorts on account of this utterance, but Gen, Weaver has a fashion of expressing himsef, without regard to the feelings and wishes of the *‘touchy” champions of the g. o, p

IT seEMs that the New York mugwump newspapers as well as several democratic papers who pose as Cleveland organs are pretty hard to please in mdking party nominations. The Buflalo Courier, the New York Times, and several other adherents of the Cleveland faction in New York, have bolted the nomination of {eaac H. Maynard, the democratic nominee for judge of the court appeals. They base their opposition to Judge Maynard upon the eharge that he made an unjust, partisan decisien by which the democrats were enabled to count a majority in the state senate two years ago, and thus, for the first time in a quarter of of century, secure two representatives in the United States senate. The Fort Wayne Journal agys that some people will vote for Judge Maynard because of the enemies he has made, ,

- THE pEMOCRACY of Chicago did ex. actly the right thing in their convention for the nomination of judges the other day by refusing to endorse the actions of Judge Gary in the trial of the anarchists a few years ago, by renominating him for judge. His conduct in the trial of those cases showed him to be a cruel, heartless judge, who, ’to satisfy the clamor®for blood, sat ‘upon the bench ruling against the defendants eontrary to every principle of judicial fairmees and justice. A day or two later the Repumblicans nominated him as their candidtate. He may be elected but it js gratifying to know that the democracy of the great city of Chicago emphatically condemned the high handed manner in which he presided as judge in the trial of men for their lives.—Plymouth Democrat. Cor~ rect you are. : ;

Grasping at Straws;

Over-zealous Republican papers are making the foolish claim that the result of the election in Indianapolis is an indication of national politics, and some have the temerity to claim it a vindication of ex-President Harrison, the enthusastics wanting to make it a foundation stone for a boom for his renomination. Such conclusions can be arrived - at only by verv narrow and bigoted partisans as the Republicans canvass was made solely on local issues.—-Goshen News. ;

Meat for the Superstitious.

An odd circumstance connected with the Michigan Central wreck at Jackson is that the two trains in the-smash-up ‘were a part ot thirteen specials to be sent over the road during the day; that there were thir-l teen cars in the wrecked train, the ac-| cident happened on the thirteenth day of the month, and that in all probability thirteen will be the number of persons killed, as twelve are dead and séveral others are expected to die. Then to cap the climax of superstition the accident happened on Friday.

Nutritious Foodfthat is Cheap

| It is a misfortune to the world that the people do not more generally understand the importance of buying nutritious food, and this is especially true with poor people who should make their earnings go as far as possible in furnishing' wholesome food. Five cents worth of beans or flour will repair as much waste tissue in the body as fifty cents worth of beef or fish and there is as much nutriment in a pound of wheat flour as in three and one-half quarts of oysters. In buying what is usually regarded as ‘‘the best’’ people frequently pay big prices for flavor instead of nutriment. The cheaper qualities of food are often the best, but it is necessary to cook them with greater care to make them equally as palatable.—LaPorte Argus.

Not Satisfied with the Situation,

This paper does not wish to be classea as a kicker, but what we desire above all else is to see a bit of energy displayed about the office of the fourth assistant postmaster general. : This 18 the man who is genefally supposed- to be the custodian of the administration ax, but it seems he has not yet learned how to use it. Would that Adlai, instead of being compelled to listen to idiotic drivel in the senate, were permitted for a few days to show the glistening* steel of the ax as it would cleave the morning atmosphere and .drop a Republican head at every glisten. Adlai is built on the westera democratic pattern.—Columbia City Post. , ,

The Craze Will Spread.

The excitement engendered by the A. P. A. organization caused a Catho: lic cemetery in Lake county to be desecrated a few years ago.- In all parts of the country the religious fanaties are being aroused and their ignorant tears played upon. It i 3 not improbable that the country will witness a repetition of the old Know Nothing scenes of forty years ago before the farce was ended and such people come to their senses, ‘‘Popery”’ and ‘‘Romanism’’ are great scarecrows to ignorant and fanatical people whose minds have been warped by years of prejudicial -teachings and those who engage in a deliberate crusade of misrepresentation against any religion deserves the severest censure irom all good citizens.—LaPorte Argus.

Knows His Business.

Wright Rockhill, the new postmaster at Fort Wayne, promptly fired the republican mail carriers when he took charge of the office. Complaint was immediately made that he had violated the civil seryice law in discharging them without suflicient cause.. The discharged employes made an appeal to the civil service commission for a hearing and an idspector arrived three weeks ago to make an investigation. The retired' men claimed that the dismissals were made exclusiyely for political reasons. Last Saturday Postmaster Rockhill received an official communication from Washington to the effect that his proceedings were in striet accordance with the civil service laws. The charges preferred- against the dismissed men -were of suflicient weight to make the removals not only legal but advisable, said the ofticial notice. : |

" The Pension List. ; President Garfield thhe pension lists never would or could honestly call for more than eighty millions a year, but Commissioner Lochreén’s report, just issued, shows the list now contains nearly a million names, calling for the actual payment this year of about $157,000,000, and the commissioner asks for $162,000,000 for next year. The further we recede from the war, the more the pension list seenis to increase. The number of names on ‘the roll has increased about one hundred thousand this year, and if the next year’'s increase shall be only two-thirds of the increase of this year, the total number of pensioners will greatly exceed one million., Commissioner Lochren calculates- that atter 1895 the list of pensioners will decrease, but the yeterans are apt to marry young women in their declining years, and there may be a host of widows to add to the list by and by. It is the general opinion that the pensioned widows of soldiers of the Revolutionarv war are not yet extinct, : S

Little Chance for an Accident, The Lake Shore, says the Elkhart Review, has probably the safest system of running trains now in operation on any road, and collisions can only 'be made posssible by blundering on the part of some ‘one. From telegraph station to telegraph station, the entire length of the road, is known as a block. Two trains are never allowed in the same block at one time. - For illustration: The first block west of Kendallville -extends to Brimfield. If a train is running in several sections, or one train is to follow another, it is not allowed to leave Kendallville until the preceeding train has left Brimfield. When this is done the operator at Brimfield notifies ' the operator here that the train has passed, and the next train is sent out. Bnt it will not be allowed to proceed further than Brimfield until -the train ahead has been heard from at Wawaka, and so on to the end of the road. As soon as the firgt train passes a station the semaphore js set against the trdin following, and {s pot changed until the block ahead is clear. Jf an oyergtor should fall asleep the tram gould ngt pass his post because the -semaghore would be against it, and no other train ecould atart out in the same block until the waiting frain is out of it. This system with the aid of a double track, has made traveling on the [.ake Shore road as nearly safe as possible. ~ Subscribe for THE BANNER, ek

After the ceremony they took the train at Ligonier for Chicago where they will spend a week or more at the fair.

Wanted to Trade Back,

An interesting law suit engrossed the attention of %sq. Kelsey and 4. big audience last Thursday. Abe Yeager and Chauncy Huntsmsn traded horses; Yeager thought that he had been swindled ' and wanted to trade back, which Huntsman would not do. The horse was replevined by Yeager and the suit was to determine the right of property. The testimony developed the fact that both horses were worth about $16.007 but Huntsman had the best side of the case an(}‘woh. Besides losing in his trade Yeéager had to pay the costs. . "

Arrested for Arson.

Abrabham Stutzman, a farmer living sonth of LaGrange, was jailed last week, charged with fatally poisoning two.cows and one horse belonging‘to John O. Sherman, a neighbor. Regarding the matter the LaGrange Democrat says: The proof against Stutzman is thought to be conclusive. He was tracked from Sherman’s barn to his.own home and had, furthermore, threatened Sherman with all kinds of vengeance. They have had considerable trouble and a suit growing out of a personal encounter is now hanging fire in the circuit court.

A Valuable Book.

' The most elégant and appropriate souvenir ot the exposition which a yisitor can carry away is Bancroft’s Book of the Fair, taking it home being the next thing to having the entire exposition with him. Itis the most com plete and perfect reproduction of the great display that has been ‘made, or that can be made within reasonable limits. The 1,000 imperial folio pages which the work is to contain will be packed with all that is most interesting to read and best worthy preserving, while the illustrations are in the highest'art as the numbers so - far issued amply show.

Married at South Bend.

The Reformed church parsonage was the scene of a quiet'wedding Saturday night, the occasion being the marriage of Mrs. Marguerite Kabrick, to Mr. John W. Peters. The marriage ceremony was performed at 9 o’clock by Rev. N. D. Williamson. Mr. Peters is an employe of the Times and has a host of friends who will be pleased to learn of this union. Mr, and Mrs. Peters have commenced housekeeping at 312 West Marion street, where they will be found by their friends. The ‘‘prints’’ join with other friends in extending felicitations to the happy couple.—South Bend Times. Mr. Peters is well known in this city and was formerly connected with this office. e . : :

A few days ago as the exposition filyer entered the Chicago station a man whose face was as black as an Ethiopian’s, whose legs seemed shaky and whose manner was that of. one completely exhausted, jumped down from the engine, says the New York Press. He had a reason for being dirty and exhausted, for he had ridden all the way from New York to Chicago upon the locomotives which drew this tramn. He changed at Albany, Syracuse, Buffalo,: Cleveland, Toledo and Elkhart and bade good-bye to one engineer and took the hand of greeting of another with whom he was to continue his ride, He was an old engineer himself, but no longer stands upon the foot board, having yielded up the throttle to take up the pen. He was Cy Warmen, the poet engineer who took that long and exciting ride that he might get inspiration for gertain literary work, and tfiat he might study from experiences the engineers who go flying through the night at a mile g minute. It was the longest consecu- | tive ride ever made in a railway cab—nearly 1,000 miles in a little oyer 1,000 minutes. kgt 3

Council Procéedings.

The regular session of the city council on last Thursday night was attended by all the members of the council. In the absence of Mayor Weir Councilman Cornell was called to the chair as mayor pro tem: ‘

~_After the reading of the minutes of the last meeting the report of the water works engineer was read and approved. Itshowed: that during the month of September 71,400 barrels of water were pumped and that the total expenses were $87.75« ‘Some talk was indulged in by the -council in regards to refunding $2 for poll tax, collected of (zeorge MecMasters, who has been a member of the fire department since last April. After considerable discussion, on motion of Councilman Mier, the matter was laid cver until next meeting. - Wes. Bourie petitioned the council to open the street running south of his property. Acting Mayor Cornell stated ‘that City Engineer Gerber and himself had looked the matter up when it ‘was presented to the council in the spring and had come to the conclusion that there was no-street there. Mr. ’Bourie handed the council a copy of his abstract for the property which ‘ shows that there was a street laid out at the time the addition was made to the city. The mayor informed ‘Mr. Bourie that they had no time to spend on the matfer as the council had done all there was in its power to do. The following bills were read and ordered paid.

* The bill of Mr. Gleason for service was ordered paid and to be presented by the clerk to the township trustee, it being the judgment of the council that it would be best to pay Mr. Gleason immediatley, and the city could wait until the county commissioners meet in December. e

Mr. Woodrufibrought up the matter of taking injured tramps Joff the hands of the railroad and then haying the city pay their bills. Councilman Hutchison said they did not belong to the railroad or the city, but that the township trustee was compelled to take care of them, in his absence, he thought, the city shouid take care of them and he was sure the township trustee would allow all reasonable bills;.

- Another Sucker Canght. : Another Bill Wehrley was given a ‘dose of dead man’s oil’’ at the eircus at Waterloo last Saturday. His name is Pierson, a prominent farmer, who thought he had the sharper safe, but he himself was fleeced of over $3OO. O, these honest cusses! They would steal just as quick as anybody else if they thought there was no danger. Our sympathy does not slop cver for a ‘‘prominent farmer” or anybody else, who would take money by trickery and swindling.—Goshen Democrat. =~ . 1t Pays to Feed Wheat to Hogs. - The Kokomo Tribune “*‘is informed by a very intelligent and practical ‘Howard county farmer that he has found a sure market for his wheat at-a fine price. He has just ted 165!bushels of wheat to a herd of hogs and by careful weighing has ascertained that they gained in weight to the amount of $2OO. He 1s an enthusiastic advocate of the plan of feeding wheat.” Pork is steadily advancing in price, and .will doubtless command a good figure for another year. The farmer who sells his wheat for less than sixty cents when he can realize over a dollar by feeding it to his hogs is surely “‘not up to snuff.” : : _

Common Sense Decision.

- In the superior court, Thursday morning of last week, at LaFayette, Judge Everett made a decision that was of great importance’to that county and one that will be read with interest over the state. The question involved was whether]a person holding a county warrant or order and owing the county taxes, he could, by mandamus, compel the treasurer to pay the full amount of his order. Judge Everett decided:that the treasurer was authorized to déuc,t the amount of delingent taxes from the holder of a warrant. The law would do a wrong, be said, to permit a man to draw money from a fund which was already depleted by reason of his individual failure to pay the sum of taxes due from him. There can be no diversity of opinion as to the sonndness and justice of Judge Everett’s reasoning.
