~ Leroy Fellows who was incarcerated in jail for the larceny of a watch belonging to Mrs. D. [. Easterday was brought into court Monday morning and plead guilty to the charge. Judge Adair did not pronounce sentence but will probably do so this week.

. George Gretzinger of Brimfield was interred in the Albion cemetery Monday forenoon. He had been a vesi dent of York township ‘living several miles north of Albion until a few years a2O he moved to Brimfield on acecount of failing health. He wxs a man universally esteemed. His family has our sympathy in their bereavemeut. We are without particulars in” regard to his age. : A jury was not secured for the trial of Bill Knepper on the charge of manslaughter until nearly four o'clock Monday afternoon. Attorneys Peterson and Sharpless appear in the bebalf of the state while Attorneys Barr and Wrigley are counsel for the defendant.

The wedding bells have once more rang. The happy groom was Frank Guthrie, son of John H. Guthrie, of Jefferson, while the bride is the charming daughter of Jacob Sipes, who liyes near Albion.

They are well known young people and who have numerous friends who unite with us in wishing them s long and happy wedded life. We are sorry to learn that Rey.

G. W. Getters, who has filled the pulpit of the Lutheran church at this place in an acceptable manner for the past few months was not returned by the synod which convened at Elkbart last week. We regret haying 'Rev. Getter leave us, but the people who have become acquainted unite with us in wishing him success wherever he may ve sent. We haye not learned where he has been located. We have not been aprised who will be the pastor of the church in this city, but rumor says that it will be Rev. E W. KErigk or Rev. Jabez Shaffer {

The Kendailyille Standard says the election in [ndianapolis had no political significance whatever. Probably its able editor will explain why the republicans in that city were so anxious to haye ex President Harrison| come out and endors<e the republican candidate for mayor. Why did they import speakers into that city and put forth every effort to elect their candidate? [t would have been different if the Republicans had been sugccessful then the wise editor of the yersatile Standard would have said that the election would have great bearing on the reenlt in 1896. It makes a great deal of difference whose ox (s gored. In the New Era of Oct. 2d we noticed that it speaks of the ‘‘national debt being increased, and calls attention to the fact that it is all on account of the Democrats not legisiating properly to provide ample sources of revenue and to the genera) incompetency of the party to suecessfully run the goyernment.’’ Comsistency thou art a jewel. When Harrison took hold of the reins of soyernmentof there was a handsome surplus in the treasury, but at the time the govern‘ment was turned over- to the lemocrats there was an empty treasury, and secretary Foster was negotiating for the sale of bonds, but mfr off the crisis until the democratic administion came into power; 8o th"ay could shoulder the responsibility on the democratic ﬁarty. How do:r it come that the McKinley bill, of which the Republicans boast so much about, did provide enough revenue to run the not geyernment instead of sy en«;% thesurﬁlél in the treasury? 'fne ‘Wilson bill. ; at;*'ﬁlft?i”ﬁdg* the month of August, pro(duced enongh revenue to more than meet the expenses and will continue,

to do so, for the country is entering upon a new era of prosperity -due to the Wilson bill. Republican newspapers had better sweep their own _political door yard clean before attempting to throw stones. Take Ohio, for instance, where the state is in bankruptcy and run bya bankrupt governor who wants to be president, and South Dakota, where their state treasurer has just been ‘sentenced to the penitentiary; also the legislaturesl of Indiana and Ohio which were controlled and dominated by republicans; also at the Michigan City penitentiary, where a contract has been made at a lower rate than heretofore. When it comes to competeney the republican party is weighed in the balance and found wanting. Ohio, [linois, Minnesota, < H Mitchell, 249 Hermap avenue, Dayton, Ohio, says: ‘‘For seven years, my throat was so badly affected- thutl it was continually covered with ulcers and scabs as large ar my thumb nail. By udvice of a friend I bcught a jar of Pretzinger’s Catarrb-Balm last winter, and after using live jurs, am fully cured. and I haye not bhad the slightest return of my former caouble.’”” This undér date of September 19, 1894.
