The Figoni - @he Figonier Lamer, THE BANNER PUBLISHING COMPANY J.E, McDONALD .Editor. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 28. 1895. SoMmE newspapers used to make no end of fun about General Hancock when he was the democratic candidate for president in 1889, because he said the tariff was a local issue. Now the great republican leader, Senator John . Sherman, acknowledges in his ‘‘Recollections’”’ that General Hancock was right and the laugh is on the other side, '

'THE South Bend Times very pointedly remarks: *With two Indiana millionaires in hot pursuit of the United States senatorship, it may safely be assumed -that republican nomi. nations tor the legislature will not go begging in this state next year. The patriots who feel like sitting in the legislature are pretty certain to be quite numerous under the circumstances.”’ -

~ CoL. WATEERSON of the Louisville' Courier-Journal is not dismayed by the rcpublican victory in Kentucky. He reminds the readers of the CourierJournal that “‘the rock-ribbed republicans of Maine. Massachusetts, Penngylyania and lowa ‘have lost those states each twice the last thirty years without hurt to the republican party, or the public service;” and asks: ““May not the rock-ribbed Democrats of Kentucky lose one battle in thirty years without going to pieces?”’ :

Ex-SpeEaker Crisp still advocates free silver coinage. By special invitation of the Georgialegislature he rocently addressed that body on the financial question and declared himself unequiyocally in favor of free and unlimited coinage of silver at the old ratio of 16 to 1, with or without international agreement. He thinks this country is big enough ana strong enocugh to ‘‘go it alone.” He does not believe that free coinage would result in monometallism, or that values would be decreased,

A CHicaco paper, having asked the governors of the forty-four states in the Union to what religion they belonged, received answers from all except the governor of North Carolina and the governor of Texas, Ten are Presbyterians, five Congregationalists five Pretestant Episcopalians, while the remainder are not church members, though most of them attend some religious service. Observing that not one of the forty-four is a Catholie, the Catholic Review asks: ¢lf it be true that religious liverty obtains in this .county, why is it that there never has been a Catholic president and that very few of the other high offices are ever filled by Catholicg?” :

| Joux SHERMAN of Ohio has served longer in the United States senate than any other man who ever had a seat in that house. Thomas H. Benton of Missouri served as United Sates senator from December 6, 1821, till March 3, 1851-—twenty-nine years, 2 months and 27 days—and that was the longest period of any senator’s seryice until Mr. Sherman exceeded it. But Mr. Bherman entered the senate March 23, 1861, and served econtinuously until March 8, 1877, making 15 years, 11 monthks and 15 days, when he entered the cabinet of President Hayes. His second term of service in the senate began March 4, 1881, and has continued until the present time. His service since June 16, 1861, is in exeess of that of Benton.

Buywraro has the discredit of haying the Jargest number of liquor saloons in proportion to its inhabitants. In Philadelphia & license costs $1,000; and there are 1,355 egloons, or one to every 841 persons. But in Boston, a license costs $1,500;- and there are 1,080 saloons, or one to every 500 per-

sons. In New York city, a license costs $200; and there are 7,300 saloons or one to eyery 234 persoans, But in Buffalo, & salgon license ecosts only $125, and there is one saloon to eyery 160 persons. If Bishop Doane’s plan were adopted, all license abolished, and the liquor business made as free as any other business, to be goyerned by the natural law of supply and demand, is it ligely that the number of saloons would be diminished? Tag American people 6we money to Eurgpe and if the exports of merchandise are insufficient in value ¢o meet the required payment, gold must be sent in settlement of the balance. Last week the shipments of gold aggregated $3,267,600. This week a similar amount will probably goe, and treasury officials admit that .presentin-i dications peint to further exports from: week to week, though they profess to! belieye that the volume will be light until after the Christmas hplidays. ‘ The October statement of foreign trads showed that while exports increased to a small extént, imports of merchandise were greatly swelled, the result being that the balance of trade in fa"vor of this side, which in October, 1894, wes $53,683.135, is this year only $ll,960,928. For the ten months ended’ October 31, 1895, the excess of umports over exports wae $31,119,749 as compared with an excess of exports BN 8 duivcl6. 1 b

SENATOR SHERMAN is in full accord with the views of ex-Senator Edmunds in regard to the acquisition of more territory, ‘“The wants of the future,” Mr, Sherman says ‘‘are beyond the vigions of mankind, but I hope that our people will be content with internal growth and avoid the complications of foreign acquisitions. _Qur fa}nil}' of states is ‘already large ‘enough to create embarrassments in the ‘ senate and the republic should not hold dependent provinces or possesgions. Eyery new acquisition will create embarrassments, Canada and Mexico as independent republics will be more valuable to the United States than if caryed into additional states. The union already embraces discordant elements enough without adding others. If my life is prolonged I will do all I can to add to the strength and prosperity of the United states, but nothing to extend its limits or to add new dangers by acquigition of foreign territOl‘y’.” :

IN A NUTSHELL, : One of the really greatliving Americans is William S. Holman, Even in the gatire which his political opponents have meant to be conveyed in characizing bim as “The Great Objector,’ there is an element of respect and confidence which has not escaped the at‘tention of the people. If he had not been goyerned by motiyes of sincere integrity bis efforts as an economist in the public expenditures might -have been made objects of derision, but no man in any country has ever given so many years of service to its publie ‘affairs and come out ot the ordeal with cleaner hands. Not one breath ot dishonor has eyer been raised against William S. Holman 1n the forty years during which time. he has been almost | without interruption in a place of | public attention and criticism. The New York World publishes an interview with Judge Holman which | occurred the other day in Washington. He said: : | ‘| ““There has been nothing in the leg- | lation since the Fitty-first congress to | excite public dissatisfaction or cause |distress. The misfortunes of the Democrats began with the mistake in the | Hawaiian matter. The administration .| was entirely wrong in dealing with .| that question. The attempt to restore , | the queen was an unpopular error and ~|it was an affront to the sensibilities of | the American people to have the stars | and stripes pulled down by the agent || of the administration. .

“My individual opinion is that the course to pursue in order to regain what has been lost is to junite -and earnestly fight for lower taxes, more economical expenditure and a larger stable volume ot money. Belligerent rights should be granted to Cuba immediately. We haye been lenient and considerate of Spain, far beyond what was required of us. - : *“There is no use disguising the fact that the administration is unpopular with the .people. The method of dealing with the bond business was a great political mistake.”” : Nothing could b;ve been more accurately or briefl# stated than these words in which the whole philosophy of the existing conditions is presented. Upon a platform that would embody these suggestions, the Courier believes that Judue Holman himself would be ultogether the strongest can didate for the presidency that the democracy could nominate, He belongs to the Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lincoln type of men. His fund of experience 1n public affairs is even greater than theirs, but if he could be chosen to the presidency he ‘would unquestionably bring to the discharge of his official duties the same great sentiments of humanity and patriotism with which the history of their country surrounds the names of Jackgon and Lincoin.—Hon. John G. Shanklin in Eyansyille Courier. An Interesﬁcng' Event, .A yvery delightful dinpner party was given at Ligonier last eyening by Dr. and Mrs. A. Gants and daughter, Miss Emma, of that place, to a number of their Ligonier and Kendallville friends. At 7 o’clock an elegant repast was gerved the guests at Hotel Goldsmith after which all repaired to the beau{tiful home of the host and hostesses on Cavin street where the remainder ot the evening was most pleasantly spent with 'music and merriment. The ' Gants home is one which, for sincerely cordial welcome and royal entertainment cannot be surpassed. Those present from this city were Mr. and Mrs. Eagene Iddings, Mr. and Mrs. D. F. Ohlwine, Mr. and and Mrs. Fred Hess, Mrs. Geo, Smiley, Mrs. J. M. Teal, Misses Maude Liash,Jennie Baker, Grace Baker, Harriet Conlogue, Rey. J! O. Rose, Messrs. L. M. Lepper and G. F.

Making & Hard Fight. - At the last term of the commissioners’ court of LaGrange county en application for liquor license was refused C. F. Putt, of Wolcottville, a remonstrance being presented signed by a majority of the yoters of the township. Some of the remontrapts withdrew from the original petition, and for this reason. and on account of ¢ther alleged defects, a strong contest was made for the petitioners. But on all the points raised the commissioners ruled against the applicant and Putt was refused a license. He appealed to the cireuit court. The appeal was called into the circuit court on Tuesday by the council for the applicant. Attorney Drake opposed the right of appesi to the circuit court, bolding the action of the commissioners’ court was final. MeClaskey and Ballou, Putt’s counsel, ingisted the gircuit court has jurisdiction. Judge Wilson sustained the right of appeal, and also that the remonstrants were liable for cos's if they failed to make good their cause, The gpplicant then made a motion for & chapge of venue to Elghart county, w'hic% wag granted.— Goshen Times. : Wanted A man (@ sell Canadian grown fruit trees, berry plents, roses, shrubbery, seed potatoes, etc., for the largest growers of high grade stock.

It Was not Hog Cholera. The disease which has been carrying off thousands of hogs in Indiana and till now supposed to be hog cholera, is found to be indigestion causedby feeding pumpkins from which the seed bad not been extracted. Enormous crops of pumpking were raised this year and farmers began early to feed them to stock. No one had a suspicion of that cause until a posmortem examination of several hogs disclosed the fact that ‘stomachs were packed with undigested pumpkin seed. The bulbs are as hard 'as stone.—Rochester Republican.

What is Adyertising and What Not. The columns of a newspaper constitute the stock in trade of the editor and publisher. Every line except editorial sentences should be either an itém of news or an advertisement. All matter of more interest to any person, party or class than to the general pub-. lic is advertising. and should be paid for at prices agreed upon by the advertiser and publisher, The taking of space in a newspaper, to the exclusion of news and for the benefit of any class without paying full space value,is equal to appropriating a similar yalue from a dry goods store without paying the merchant’s price. —Columbus Times,

Last Sunday at the U. B. Church. As announced, ingathering day was observed by the U. B. Sunday school last Sunday. Ingathering day is a day set apart by the church at large as a day in which speccial efforts are to be made to gather in as near as possible the entire enrollment of the school and as many new ones as are not attending any sBchool. During the past two weeks efforts were made to do this and the appearance of the school Sunday morning showed that the effort was successful. With an enrollment of 250 there were present 215, not all old scholars, but some who havenot attended Sunday school for years. The success attending this effort was due to the untiring energy and zeal of the superintendent, Bro. C.. R. Stansbury, and Rev. G. F. Byrer. - We would not forget the teachers and. schelars who worked so faithfully and earnest'y; to them much credit 18 due. A prize was oftered by Rey. Byrer to the person who brought in the largest number of new scholars and also to the person bringing in the second largest number. Johnny Ellerman was presented the first prize and Sister Samantha Stansbury the second. The prizes were indeed prizes, one was the ‘“The Handbook for Workers’’ and the other ‘At Hand.”” Immediately after the Sunday school was the morning service, the theme, ‘‘Attention to the Word of God,”” was handled in an able. and instructive style by the pastor, In the afternoon beginning at 3. olclock the regular afternoon meeting of the day began with the meeting of the Y. P. C. U. About 70 of the little people assembled at this meeting and were instructed to the word of God. At 5:30 o’clock the senior Y. P. C. U. meeting assembledgto the number lof avoutd) and spent an hour in praises - and thankfoloess for the spiritual blessing of the past year at the hand of God. The closing service of the day was the regular preaching service at 7 o'clock. Rev. Byrer's theme was ‘‘Not Pleasing Qurselves”’ and the preacher outdid hiwmself in the way he handled the subject. It was a sermon for everyone and just fit and we might say hit everyone. In connection with this we would most cordially invite all who do not attend Sunday school or church elsewhere to attend the U. B. Sunday school and church, also the young people’s seryice. Sunday school commences at 9:30 & m. and church service at 10:45 a. m. and 7:00 p. m. ‘

y A Distressing Accident. A bad accident occurred at the Mier carriage works last Saturday evening in which H. H. Warner, an old gentleman 79 years of age, was badly injured. Mr. Warner who came here about two years ago from New York, had applied to the Mier Carriage Co. for the position as night watchman about the buildings. On account ot his age Mr. Sol Mier was adverse to giving him the place and so informed the old gentleman who protested that he could do the work and insisted upon securing the job. Saturday afternoon Mr. Warner went to the works and about 4 o’clock Herman Mier, after procuring a lantern, took him through the building to show him what would be expected of a mnight watch and to conyince him that it would be almost impossitie for him to perform the duties. After a trip through the upper part of the building they arrived at the ground tloor and yisited the wood working rooms near the elevator shaft. Here after cautioning Mr, Warner, Mr. Mier opened the door and called his attention to the condition of the room. As Mr. Mier turned away Mr. Warner started directly towards the eleyator pit and before ke could be stopped slipped off into the hole which is about five feet deep. - <

Mr. Mier realizing that the old gens tleman was hurt, secured assistance and jumping into the pit helped Mr, Warner to a sitting position when it was found that his leer was broken. The injured man was immediately taken to his residence and Dr. Shobe called. The leg was badly broken in two places, but if no other complications set in the old gentleman may ultimately recover. He attaches no blame in any way to Mr. Mier whom he says warned him of his danger, but, says he was confuged gnd stepped off ‘as he went to turn sround. ] It is indeed a sad misfortune to Mr. Warneg who is an estimable old %lentleman and in poor circumstances. e has his all invested in a little house, and wanted the place so a 8 lo have an income sufficient to warrant a living. His terrible injury does not seem to daunt his courage, however, and he says that he will soon be around again. Mr. Mier and the other members of the firm are very sorry that the accident happened and while they feel that they arg in no way responsible, haye so far looked after the wants of the injured man. |

ADDITIONAL LOCAL : It was decided in the Fulton circuit court at the recent session that. the signer of a saloon remonstrance could withdraw his name at any time he desired. The Rochester Good Citizens’ league made arrangements to appeal the case to a higher conrt. The defeat in the case referred to so disheartened the temperance. people of that city that they are not making any effort to defeat the half-dozen appligants. who will ask licenses in Decemer.

The new time card on the Lake Shore does not make any changes of importance other than to stop the east bound express on Sunday, This train pasging here at 2:08 making regular stops on Sunday for the accommodation of all who wish to go east is a concession of no little importance to our people. The other change in No. 23 due here at 5:05 makes it 5:08 or threec minutes later, The morning and evening accommodations will run all winter.

Although the sparrow is not protected by law and is loved by no one, we seldom see a boy throw a stone at or shoot one. The innocent and useful birds are the prey of sportsmen and the small boy; but the sparrow is safe, We growl at him, condemn him morning noon and night and never lift a hand to destroy him. This seems strange and would indicate that men are prone to do what they should not do and leave undone that which they should do. .

Kate Douglas Wiggin’s story, ‘‘Huldah the Prophetess,”” in the December Harper’s is a humorous tale, told in Mrs. Wiggin's best manner. Huldah was not a gypsy fortune-teller nor yet a clairyoyant, but a provincial New England damsel, to whom every. day happenings of life on & farm were mysterious hints of coming events, A good part of the scene of the story is laid in Goshen, Indiana, and a manufacturer of pumps cuts quite a figure. We can’t imagine that our friend Jim Arthur could be in & romance of this kind. i
