JANUARY 23. 1896. ‘ It 18 Now pretty definitely settled that the democratic state conventionl - will be held on June 24, two weeks before the national conyention, : THE democratic national convention ~ will be held at Chicago. July 7th. It took a number of ballots to settle the choice of cities. St. Louis came near capturing the prize. : . ~ THERE is a general expression of opinion that Senator Hill neyer appeared to better advantage than in his‘ spirited defense of Secretary Carlisle} in answer to the attack of Senator ‘Sherman. Mr. Hill is now manifestly the democratic leader in the United States Senate. : TaE state of Utah will make a radical change in the jury system by substituting eight jurors for twelve in all cases except those inyolying capital punishment and permitting a verdict on the vote of six out of the eight members. This is indeed a sensible arrangement. DuN’s reyiew of business for 1895 shows that there were 13,197 commercial failures in the United States, against 13,885 in 1894, with liabilities $173,196.060 against $172,902,856 in 1894. - There was a decrease in the number for the first quarter, but an increase afterward. ! ToE newly elected members of the state central committee have organized by selecting Sterling R. Holt of Indianapolis as chairman. This is a most satisfactory and excellent selection. Mr. Holt is a wide awake Democrat, a good business man and an all around hustler. That he will make a first-class chairman goes without saying. ' TaE late news from England has been more pacific, but there is still something indicative of coming trouble ~ln the universal activity in the naval yards and arsenals. It is said that the first naval reserye men have been ordered to hold themselves in readmess} for service and that the second naval reserye, composed of men belonging to -the mercantile marine, have been noti—{ fied that the services of some of them will shortly be required. But what these warlike preparations mean. the public are not yet informed. ' ‘ IN soME parts of Canada the Sunday laws - are strictly enforced. Thteel Seventh Day Adventist preachers at Darrell, Ontario. were hatled into court the other day for engaging in secular labor on the first day of the week. When arrested they were slaking lime to be used in the building of a new meeting house. They told the justice they had conscientiously kept holy the seventh day, Lut he decided against them and gave them their choice between paying fines and going to jail. They have appealed to the hizh court at Togonto. o ~ Evex the New York World is moved to say: ‘‘The people of the country are not suffering for gold. Any one of ‘the government’s half dozen or more kinds of money will satisfy them. The active business men are net clamoring for gold. Itis only a small ring of bankers with other dabblers in 1-per cent. who are raiding the treasury and calling for more gold. Why dees not the government try the plan for a while of considering the welfare and needs of the whole people and let ‘the Street’ look out for itself?”’ Gospel truth every word of it. SEVERAL hundred thousand Springfield rifles which are as good as ever, but have been superseded by another arm now in use in the regular army, are standing idle in the goyernment armories while the national guard in some of the states are still ‘worryine along with old and inferior weapons. Senator Hawley has introduced in congress a bill, which is said to be fayored by Secretary Lamont and the ordinance bureau, to authorize the war department to hand over these Springfield rifles to the national guard, and it is believed that this bill will pass without opposition. ProPLE who are prone to pass judgment on newspapers will find food for thought in the Tlndianapolis Journal’s reply to a critic. The trouble with most critics of the press is that they assume all readers to be intellectual and cultured like themscives, when as a fact a great proportion are not so. It is the purpose of the cditor to suit the average taste. The literature he chooses is not that he would select for his own reading; he has in mind not ~ only the scholar but the youth with a taste for base ball, the girl with a liking for a sentimental story, the woman interested in social matters, the man in search of light on pubiic topics. If he can give something for each of these and in adition a portion of such literature as the critical taste approves then he feels that he mdmmu But the newspaper, is first of all, a thing of today. Ita porpose is to chronicle current eyents and to publish Tepresents the modern spirit only and e e

e Irls pretty well settled that John C. Goudy will be re elected chairman of the republican state central committee This is a big victory for Mr. Goudy in the face of the strong fight made against him by the Indianapolis republican gang and -the Harrison men all over the state who supported E. H. Nebeker of Covington. THE republican district meeting at Fort Wayne last Tuesday was not as harmonious as the bosses would like to have the rank and file to believe. The fight between the Goudy and Nebeker factions at one time looked as if it might grow serious. With their usual urbanity the Noble county delegation voted on both sides of the question. You can’t get any Noble county Republican toc take any responsibniity; they want to be able to | hedge. i . THE following are the latest published figures regarding the world’s population. The human family living on earth today consists of about 1,450, 000.000 persons in round numbers. Of these only about 5000,000,000 or onethird are even properly -clothed; 1250,000,000 habitually go naked; 700,000,000 have only middle part of theif bodies covered; only 500,000,000 live in houses, 900,000,000 in huts or caves while the remaining 250.000.0(0 have no home or shelter whateyer. Hew near these figures approach accuracy we are unable to say. ' Supr. D. K. Goss, of the Indianapolis city schools, read a paper before the state teachers’ association at Indianapolis, recently, in which he adyocated depriving the township trustee of the power of appointing teachers and creating a non-partisan board for that purpose, Prof. Goss professes to haye the utmost faith in the business capacity of township trustees, but when it comes to the judging of the qualification and fitness of teachers he thinks they are narrow in their opiion. Township truste?s will doubtless demur to this, and the old way of appointing teachers will not be changed very soon, R R, IN A RECENT speech Senator Allem of Nebraska, asked if the democratic party was united on any one thing "when Senator Hill was ready with an excellent reply. |*‘Oh, yes,”” said he ‘‘we are united on economical appropriations, upon state’s rights, upon freedom of elections and we are prac tically united on tarift reform although we may be somewhat divided on the financial questions.”” As the Cincinnati Euquirer puts it, it is well to have a reminder of this sort occasionally. The great usefulness of the demo-| cratic party to the country is on the essential and enduring principles. On the passing financial question, important though it is, the republican as well as the democ¢ratic party, is rankly divided.

o A Good Scheme. i ‘ A telephone has been put into the Masonic lodge room for the benefit of | the members. This is an iunovation ! indeed and we are constrained te be-' lieve it will be a good thing to gather | in the:absent members when needed, but there may be some drawbacks to the scheme. If a man goes home and tells his wife that he has been to lodge she may be able to discredit his statement by asserting that she tried to get him to the phone and the boys said he was not there and had not been all evening, : A Pleasant Party.

Everything has its day. Only a few years ago eyery farmer in Elkhart county was clamoring for the passage of laws which would render the drainage of their farms easy of accomplishment. T'he law makers hearkened to their cry, tile makers wuxed rich, and the land became dry, barren and unprofitable, the water in the streams grew less each year and a cry ‘‘irrigation is what is needed’’ arose. Having drained the country of moisture it is now proposed to supply that element by artificial means. Many farmers ale also advocating the passage of laws authorizing the filling up and abandonment of the expensive drains and ditches already constructed, claiming that such a course will give a more eyen supply of water in the streams the year round and prevent drouth.— Elkhart Truth. : Cuts off Court Costs, One year ago, says the Goshen News of Jan. 2d, A, F. Wilden of that -city diyided among his children $115,000 in realty and money on Christmas. 1o Minnie K. Wilden he gave five houses and ten lots, to Abraham junior he gave seven houses and five lots, and one hundred acres of land lying contiguous to the city limits on the east; to Todd wilden he gaye ten houses, six lots and one hundred acres of land next to the city limits; to Wm. J. Wilden he gave ten houses and one hundred acres of land next to the city; and to the other three children he gave thhirty-five thousand dollars in cash and realty, making a total of patrimony distributed of $115,000 with which to begin life, which manner of partitioning patrimony while the principal and legatees are all living has the defenge of wisdom and logic beside the satisfaction of knowing that his last will and testament has been executed as he desired and that .the executor was a man or person to his liking at least.

RR R R R RR R ‘A STAR OF HOPE. Cuban Insurgents Soon to Be Recognized as Belligerents, : 7 It Is Said the President Will Take Action in a Few Days—Much . Sympathy with the Cause. Washington, Jan. 22. — Conditions may arise within the next ten days under which President Cleveland will see his way clear for a recognition of the belligerency of Cuban insurgents. The interview with Congressman MecMillin, of Tennessee, printed in Tuesday morning’s dispatches, in which he predicts that the president will shortly recognize the belligerents, finds coniirmation in many sources here. ] Administration men have been guarding a secret for the past two days, it scems, which relates to the president’s Cuban policy. They say that Mr. Cleveland will play a trump diplomatic carg in a few days that will make his foreign policy more popular, if possible, than it was after his Venezulean message. The most accurate information to be obtained on the subject is that the p{esident has intimated to Senor de Lome, the Spanish minister, that unless Spain suppresses the rebellion in a short time the independence of the island will be recognized by this gcvernment, to the end that protection may be afforded the lives and property of Americans in Cuba. In Sympathy with the Cause. Washington, Jarn. 22.— The senate subcommittee on foreign relations, charged with the investigation of the Cuban situation, of which Senators Sherman, Morgan and Lodge are the members, on Monday morning discussed the matter referred to them for an hour and a half. It can be said that these three senators are a unit in their opinion as to what, under certain conditions, should be done. They are each in favor of the recogmnition of the insurgents as belligerents, but they have been unable to convince themselves that the time has come for such a reso--lution or that the insurgents have accomplished that which will justify the United States in taking such steps. It is believed, however, that this subcommittee will report material prog-‘ ress when the full committee meets Wednesday. If they are confronted with the convincing fact that the in-| surgents have not done that which justifies the passage of a resolution by congress asking the president to grant the recognition asked the committee will probably do the next best thing and order a favorable report on a resolution declaring the sympathy of this government with those in rebellion against the Spanish government and expressing the strong hope that they may ultimately triumph. 1 Gen. Weyler Starts for Cuba. Madrid, Jan. 22.—Delegates from the conservative and reformist parties of Cuba visited Gen. Weyler, the newlyappointed captain-general of Cuba, Monday and presented their respects. Gen. Weyler left Madrid Morday evening for Barcelona to embark for Cuba. A large crowd of people hade him farewell at the station. In response to the cheers of the crowd he said he had strong hopes of being able to an-; nounce ‘the complete restoration of Spanish sovereignty in Cuba. = . | - Queen Thanks Gen. Campos. Queen Regent Christiana Monday sent a long cablegram to Gen. Martinez Campos, cordially thanking him for his servicés in Cuba, to which the latter replied, expressing his gratitude for her majesty’s favors. - The Imparcial’sspecial correspondent in Havana telegraphs that at the moment of his embarking for Spain Gen. Martinez Campos wired to the government at Madrid-a message expressing patriotic sentiments and his gratitude for the favors he had received at the ‘hands of the queen regent. “ . Must Leave Canada.

R RR R R R R A RR L. RAR The Heart and Brain Keep Young, In his work on the senile heart Dr. Balfour tells us that there are two parts of the human organism which if wisely used ‘‘largely escape senile failure.' These two are the brain and the heart. Persons who think have often wondered why brain workers should continue to work with almost unimpaired mental aotivity and energy up to a period when most of the organs and functions of the body are in a condition of advanced senile decay. There is a physiological reason for this, and Dr. Balfour tells us _what it is. The normal brain, he affirms, ‘‘remaine vigorous to the last,’’ and that ‘*because its nutrition. is especially provided for.’* About middle life, or a little later, the general arteries of the body begin to lose their elasticity and to slow1y but surely dilate. They become therefore much less efficient carriers of the nutrient blood to the capillary areas. ' But this is not the case with the internal carotids, which supply the capillary areas of the brain. On the contrary, these large vessels ‘‘continue to retain their pristine elasticity, so that the blood pressure remains normally higher than within the capillary area of any other organ in the body. The cerebral blood paths being thus kept open, the brain tissue is kept better nourished than the other tissues of the body.’’—Medical Record. . ' Some Good Advice, Let me urge upon the rising young man in any business always to be an understudy for the position above him. Familiarize yourself with its duties. Know all its requirements. The time will oome, sometimes soomn and often late, when the question will be asked, ‘Do you think you can fill the position?’’ If you know you can, you will answer unhesitatingly, ‘‘Certainly !’’ ; If I had my life to live over again, I shonld devote some of the hours I wasted in nseless desultory amusements to the acquisition of a working vocabulary of at least two or three languages besides my own. - Numbers of men possessing no other ability maybe today are starving themselves to death with several languages at their tongue’s ends, but no young man possessing the requisite ambition to become a business man would ever find it disadvantageous to. his advancement to be at least a linguist in a commercial sense if his knowledge in continental tongues extended no further.—Hardware. - The February Century. : Heunry M. Stanley, in an artiecle on the ‘‘Development of Africa,”’ which is to appear in the February Century, recalls the fact that troubles with the Boers in southern Africa first induced David Livingston to travel to the north and so led the way to the opening of equatorial Africa. Livingston, who was a missionary at Kolobeng, accused his Boer neighbors of cruelty to the natives. They resented his intcrference and threatened to drive him from the country. He published their misdeeds in the Cape newspapers, and his bouse was burned in reven%e. This led to his leaying southern Africa and going to a region where he could follow in peace his vocation as a missionary unmolested by the Boer farmers.

We answer the question. Malt Extract is an absolute necessity in making the best bread —not only the best looking, but the most healthful bread. . - = WHY? = “ HERE ARE A FEW REASONS:—MaIt Extract digests 2,000 times its own weight of flour starch, thus saving the system this work. The flour starch, being thus transformed, removes the cause ot dry bread. The transforming or converting of flour starch into malt sugar makes the bread more nourishing, more digestible and sweeter, gives it a rich, nutty flavor, also a better color, and prevents sour bread. It quickens fermentatian and renders it unaffected by ordinary atmospheric conditions, C. R.
