‘REPUBLICAN - papers now speak of Andrew Carnegie as a free trader— all because the wily Scotchman some time since declared that the acceptance by the nation of a democratic tariff would relieve the country of further tariff agitation with its mischievous and hurtful effects. '

THERE are several houses both in Europe and America that expend over a half million dollars in advertising each year. But the greatest advertiser is an American, who in 1893 expended over one million dollars in advertising which he claims paid him largely on the investment.

JoEL P. HeaTrwoLE, formerly the editor of the Middlebury Record and for the past eleven or twelve years actively engaged in the newspaper “buginess in Minnesota, has been nominated for congress in the Third Minnesota district by the Republicans. = Joel was a republican candidate in that district two years ago, but was defeated. He thinks that he will stand a better show this year. SECRETARY CARLISLE has informed Congressman Heard of Sedalia, Missourl, that the mints coined 430,000 silver dollars in July and 728,000. in August, and will coin about the same amount in September. It is reported that th'_e‘coina‘ge of silver dollars will go on until every ounce purchased under the so-called Sherman law shall have been coined. All over the amount )need\ed to redeem the outstanding silver certificates will be converted into assets of the treasury and used for the payment of ordinary expenses.

SEVERAL state papers have protested against the common practice of bleeding candidates. The point-is well taken. Such promiscuous bleeding by all sorts of societies is no better than blackmail. Much of the laxness and irregularities in the use of public funds result from this bad practice. Men who are compelled to give away hundreds of dollars more than an office 18 worth will seek to make their losses good by charging exorbiant fees ;when they can and using public money in a manner that they may make something out of it.—lndianapolis Journal.

ONE thing the democrats in congress did that deseryes much praise. They changed and simplified the methods ot doing the business in the departments and put an.end to a large amount of gilly red tape. In the war department a large number of needless clerks were dispensed with and the force in the government printing office was cut down about one-third. Now it is stated that 156 clerks are to be discharged from the treasury department because they are not needed under the new system. A notion prevails among democrats that government clerks ought to do something to earn their salaries.

SoME of our republican friends seem to feel yery gleeful over the fact that a lot of the Louisiana sugar planters have _left the democratic party and gone over in a body to the Republicans. The trouble seems to be that the Democrats refuse to longer tax the people of the country to pay a bounty to these pets of two cents per pound for their sugar crop. That was the policy of the Republicans, and the Louisiana chaps feel that the Republicans would favor them at the expense of the people of all the other states, and are ready to transfer their allegiance to those who would show them favors. . ~ «OOLp Maip INSURANCE’’ bas been introduced in England. The scheme provides that any unmarried woman may insure for a lump sum, or an annuity to be paid if she remain un‘married up to a certain age. There are tables of expectation of marriage, just as there are expectations ot life. Companies have been formed on this basie, and are said to do considerable business. The younger and prettier the candidate the higher the rate of pre-; miums, It is sapposed that this formal i certificate of attractiveness catches a good many young women, and that most of them are content to be assessed gt a high rate. - 2o ‘

TaE United States treasury 1s gaining gold. It comes from the banks, which have no particular use for it. They have found that the treasury department will give them almost anything they require in the way of small notes, providing they return the amount ‘in gold. Inasmuch as there is a scarcity of small notes just now, owing to the crop movement, it'is expected that the gold reserve wiil largely increase this fall.

TRE immense receipts of wheat are decreasing, and on careful investigation the fact is developed that only 80 cars of the new wheat crop has been received in Chicago. - A merchant who has travelcd extensively in thej wheat districts, says that legitimate holders of wheat are not willing to' sell at present prices, and that farmers claim that they can make more feeding it to cattle and are doing so. He says, further, that speculators and capitalists are endeavoring to milk the civilized world, and as the year advances we will have some lively speculations in the cereals, which will put money into circulation and tend to improve times. : '

It is being stated that certain republican manufacturers, notably of woolen fabrics, have, for political purposes, agreed to cut the wages of their employes, making the plea that they are compelled to do this on account of the new tariff. Of course this is a mere pretext for political effect. The woolen industry is today on as purely a protection basis ag it ever was, Whatever cut the new tariff makes in woolen goods is fully compensated for in free wool. Let not workingmen be deceived by these republican manipulators, or submit to any such republican schemes. There is no necessity for a cut in the ‘wages of operatives in woolen manufactories. S ‘

IN A RECENT interyiew Senator Voorhees, speaking of the new tariff, said: Senator Allison, after the passage of the new bill; said to me 1n the presence of several democratic senators: “You have a good bill—a better bill than you think. It will be a good many years before the republican party can undertake any general plan of tariff legislation.”” Senator Sherman, too, has contributed his eyidence, In an mterview published a day or two ago he said that in his opinion the country would soon adjust i:self to the new condition of things. The Ohio senator is a shrewd and in experienced man, and gnows just how wise a measure the Democratic;party has placed upon the statute books. G

The Grand Army has been persuaded by the eloquence of Henry Watterson to hold its next national encampment in Louisville Ky. This will be the first distinctively southern ecity in which the Grand Army will assemble. It has heretofore held one meeting in Baltimore, and one in St. Louis, but neither of those cities was ever 8o thoroughly dominated by the influence of the confederacy as Lousville was. There was some talk at one time of holding the annual national encampment as far south as Atlanta, but the project fell through. Col. Watterson, who seryed in the confederate army, promises the union veterans a cordial and hospitable reception in Louisville, and he is no doubt sincere.

Tar Indianapolis Brewing Co should do something to show their appreciation of the most valuable advertising their goods receiyed last week by the action of a majority of the State Board of Agriculture. Some days before the fair the superintendent of the woman’s building gave the Brewing company privilege to erect a fine booth in one corner of the buildine. This they did in fine style at a cost of several hundred dollars and by Tuesday the exhibit of fine bottle beer was in place making a most attractive display. At this time a couple of members of the W. C. T. U. made an objection to the exhibit and they began an active crusade. A petition was presented to the board asking the immediate removal of the booth, beer and all and aftér a stormy discussion of the matter the order was made that 1t must go. - Notice was served on the brewing company, but instead of taking the exhibit they got an injunction and the trial was set at such a late hour that when the fair closed the whole thing was unsettled. In the meantime the booth was visited by thousands of people anxious to see what tife great hub bub was all about. . A guccessful State Fair. Our state fair has been a remark able success which is no doubt largely due to the live energy that has characterized the efforts of the present board and its wide awake, hustling secretary Mr. Kennedy. It has been a great show and the visitors from all parts of the state have gone home more than satisfied with Indiana’s great fair. Our own citizens have individually and collectiyely interested themselves that the fair might be made a succes, and now that they are satistfied that the whole people are with them, they arel already discussing the propriety of erecting a large building on the fair grounds to be know as the Indianapolis building which Indianapolis will fill with it’s own industries and exhibits, similar to the exposition of former years. On the whole the state board is to be congratulated on its success. The city is to be congratulated on the monied benefits derived from so large an attendance, and Secretary Kennedy should be held in high estimation by our citizens gehera]%y for his heroic efforts. —lndianapolis Independent. : Be Prompt.

Township Caucus.

The Democrats of Perry township and all others who believe in an economical and carefal administration of township affairs are invited to attend a township caucus at Union hall on Saturday afternoon, September 29, 1894, at 2 o’clock, for the purpose of nominating a complete township ticket: One trustee, one assessor, three justices of the peace and three constables. All are invited to attend and take part in the deliberations. WiLLiam N. SHOWALTER, ' Township Chairman. Will Sue tor Their Diplomas. Five students of the state normal school to whom the board of trustees refused diplomas last ycar will bring suit to compel the board to grant them. The five were a party of eighteen students that went to the state uniyersity to study after finishing their course at the state normal. The trouble over the dismissal of Prof. Tompkins from the state normal school by the board of trustees occurred and the eighteen students at the state uniyersity passed strong resolutions condemning the action of the board. When the five applied for their diplomas last year the board refused to grant them.

Heartless Parents.

Barbara Miller, a living monstrosity, is on exhibition in this city. It.is one of the most remarkable cases of abnormal physical and mental development that ever came under our observation, and to know that the child has some reasoning capability makes the case a very sad one. That the parents of such an unfortunate offspring would put it on exhibition. seems impossible and that there is, no law to prohibit such exhibitions is equally surprising The child does not resemble a toad and the name is a misnomer, simply to catch the crowd. Itis extreme cruelty that would submit the child to pußlic exhibition for the acquirement of gain.— Elkhart Journal. ;

Locomotive Engineers Elect Officers,

The Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen who were in session at Harrisburg, Pa. last week elected the following officers for the ensuing year: Grand Master Sargent, of Terre Haute, Ind., was re-elected by acclamation, the candidate who was to champion the opposition not being nominated, 1t being plain he would be defeated. J. J. Hannahan, of Englewood, 111.,, was elected first vice grand master; Charles A. Wilson, Phillipsburg, N, J., second vice grand master; and Charles W. Maier, Parsons, Kansas, third yice grand master; -grand secretary and treasurer Frank W. Arnold, of Terre Haute, was re-elected. H. N. Lamb of Garrett was chosen a member of the executiye board. Ended in Suicide. The sequel to the conviction of Chas. A. Jones, of LaGrange, on the charge of rape was his suicide by morphine in his cell last Thursday night. - Jones, who was sixty years old and a prominent merchant, a large manufacturer and an active member of tour or five fraternities, was arrested for assault upon the persons of two little girls less than sixteen years old, last April. His case was called by Special Judge F. E. Baker, and the jury returned a verdiet of guilty and fixed his punishment at two years in the state penitentiary. Friday morning he was found dead on the cot in his cell. A letter protested his imnocence and explained that he had had the poison, morphine, hidden in his clothes for some time, which he expected to use in case of conviction. His death has only added to the sensational features of the case and the citizens of LaGrange are profoundly excited. Jones’ family is very respectable and well connected, v - Must Settle Up. S The accounts of Thomas Prickett are now in the hands of the new firm, Prickett & Pollock and must be setled in some way at once. We are in need of funds and take this method to »all attention of those who ought to jettle their accounts. » PricRETT & POLLOCK.

May Escape Justice.

. There is every prospect now that neither Jesse Arnold, of North Manchester, nor his son, Thompson, will ever be tried on the charges preferred against them in connection with the failure of the bank of Jesse Arnold & Co., of South Whitley. The case against Thompson which was taken to Elkhart - county, from Whitley, on change of venue, has been dismissed, and if tried at all which, as stated, does not appear probable, 1t will be at Columbia City. A reversal of public opinion in favor of the men has taken place and it is not believed that the failure of the bank was caused by any criminality on the part of the accused. —Elkhart Truth.

GROWTH OF THE UNION,

How the United States Has Increased Dur- : ing the Century. In 1793 there were fifteen states and in 1893 there were forty-four. A population of 3,929,328 has increased to 67,182,000, occupying an area of 3,580,805 square miles, which in the original was but 805,461. Philadelphia was then the largest city in the United States, having ‘a population of 42,520, New York com‘ing second with 33,421; Boston, 18,038, and Baltimore, 13,503. Chicago, San Francisco, Milwaukee, Minneapolis and St. Paul were not on the maps, while St. Louis, Cincmnnati and Pittsburg were just beginning to be. New York with a 1,710,715 census, Philadelphia with 1,142,653 and Chicago with 1,890,050 comprise more population than that credited to the country 100 years ago. The congress of 1793 had 135 members and the congress of 1893 had 448 on a ratio of representation of one to 173,901 of a population to only 30,000 a century ago. As evidence of the nation’s growth here is the money side of the review: In 1793 the receipts into the treasury were $5,720,624, and in 1893 they were $461,507,788. The expenditures under Washington were $7,529,575. while in Cleveland’'s like year they amount to $459,461,114. From imports then the aggregate was $31,000,000, and in 1893 it was $866,361,421, Tbe exports were valued at $6,109,C00, and in 1893 the the total was $847,508,024. Washington was satisfied with 209 postoffice appointments, while Cleveland has 67,119 at his disposal. The revenue from | postoffices was then $104,747, and expenditures $72,040. The revenue in 1893 was $5,989,5643. There were nineteen colleges then and 597 now. Public schools were among the unknown along with railroads, the telegraph and telephone. In public schools alone for the year 1893 there are 13,010,136 pupils enrolled, with 369,634 teachers in charge. - ,

Money in Pickles

“The pickle season will close with this week,’’ says the LaPorte . Argus. *‘Notwithstanding the long continued drouth there was a good yield of cucumbers and the Heintz factory took in thirty thousand bushels that were grown in this locality. The price paid was fifty cents per bushel, which aggregates $15,000 that was distributed among the pickle growers of this vicinity. That 1s quite a large sum of money and shows that the Heintz plant is one of LaPorte’s most important industries, It enables the pickle growers to realize a big return for the labor expended.” .. Half Rates to Kendallville Fair.’ Account of Eastern Indiana Agrieultural Fair to be held at Kendallville Sept. 24 to 28, 1894, the Lake Shore Ry. will sell excursion tickets at one fare for the round trip, good to return until September 29th.
