THURSDAY, JAN. 31, 1901.

THE small-bore politicians at Fort Wayne who are trying to get the city charter amended so that there will be fewer Democrats in office, are not meeting with the encouragement that they had hoped at Indianapolis. There are a number of members of the legislature who do not believe in that kind of politics and they were not a bit backward in expressing their disapproval of the program outlined by the ringsters, A number of leading Fort Wayne Republicans have protested against the proposed changes in the charter.

ONE thing that engages the attention of the average visitor to the state capitol is the large number of bright looking young men that go to make up the membership of the lower house. On both sides the younger element predominates. One of the brightest of the young men on the democratic side is Hon. Zachariah M. Seiffers of Washington county. He 1s twenty-seven years old and a native Indianian. He was born and reared a farmer but is now in the practice of t;hg law. He is a wideawake, active legislator and level headed young lawyer.

SENATOR CONLOGUE introduced a bill Monday to reapportion the state, that is a ripper. Itrips the state from top to bottom and completely revolutionizes the present political lines. This part of the state is so arranged as to put Noble county in the Thirteenth district with St. Joseph, Elkhart, Lagrange, Steuben, Kosciusko Whitley, making it safely Republican by 4,000. The Twelfth district will be composed of DeKalb, Allen, Adams, Wells, Huntington and Jay, democratic by over 4,000. It is pretty safe to predict that this bill will not pass. There are too many interests left unprotected. -

. THE Democrats in the lower branch of the legislature made no mistake in their selection of a leader. Hon. Cyrus E. Davis who was given the democratic indorsement for the speakership has made a most excellent impression upon his colleagues, has won most cordial support from his party associates and much respeect from the opposition by his gentle, manly and forcible manner in presenting the minority side of the questions under consideration. Mr. Davis is alert and wide awake, a good parlementarian and a forceful speaker. It is safe to say that the interests of the minority are well looked after by him and his lieutenants. ,

THE Indianapolis Journal is a republican paper, a stalwartrepublican organ, but it does not give much consolation to the peanut politicians of that party, in the movement to change the law so as to elect the county superintendent of schools at a general election. The Journal says: ‘“‘lnasmuch as a republican legislature made the law conferring upon township trustees the authority to elect county scheol superintendents, it would have the appearance of small politics for a republican legislature to resort to another method of election because in the last election Republicans lost the majority of trustees in quite a number of counties.”

IN A vigorous speech against the ship subsidy bill Senator Vest of Missouri very appropriately remarked that if bounties are to be paid to ship owners there is no reason why it should not be paid to individuals engaged in any other industries as well. Farmers would have just as much reason to ask for a bounty on wheat because wheat growing has ceased to be profltable as owners of steamships have to ask for this subsidy. The remedy proposed by the Missouri senator for the laneuishing condition of the shipping interest is to permit people to buy ships wherever they see fit and give an American registry. He declared that if this were done, there would be no trouble about a merchant marine. Senator Vest’s speech elicted congratulations from a number of his fellow senators ou both sides of the chamber. It is pronounced by far the ablest yet delivered on that subject. '

THE claim of the warden of the Maryland penitentiary at Baltimore that his charges to the number of 973, live well at a daily cost of seven aud three-fifths cents each for food,is well worth loeking into by all heads of institutions especially in places where there is a spasm of economy. The warden who had been in the same place for twelve years, says that the food of the prison is equal to the rations supplied te the army, and that from the ease and health with which the prisoners perform their hard labor, he knows they are abundantly and nutritiously fed. The men eat beef, bacon, pork and other meats served in a variety of forms, - “the best the market affords of their .kind” says the warden. There is fresh fish in season, and oatmeal and hominy are extensively used. The _ yegetables are potatoes, beans, cabbages, greens and herbs for the soups. _Coffee and molasses are given, Meat _is given twice a day, three times, _and once aday four times a week. The food is abundantly served and.

every reasonable appetite is satisfied. The warden claims never to have had any complaints from the inmates about their food.

SHOULD HAVE RECEIVED CONSIDER

ATION.,

The llndiana house of representatives, as well as its committee on fees and salaries, has practically ignored the recommendations.of the fee. and salary commission. This, the Indianapolis News appropriately remarks, was scant courtesy to the commission’ after it had spent two years in considering the important questions relating to the salaries of state and county officers. Its work is thus rendered wholly futile and the money spent in this direction has been wasted. While it is probable that a majority of the people would not think it advisable to increase the salaries as the commission recommended, a great deal of valuable information might have been gained by giving its report careful consideration. The News would like to see the whole question of county salaries relegated to the county councils. Whether or not this would result in good would depend ‘largely on the character of the men of whom the councils are composed. The main trouble about an equitable adjustment of salaries is this: As a rule public officials ask too much, and on the other hand demagogues always stand ready to denounce any increase however just the same may be, if there is any prospect whatever for them to make political capital by so doing.

A Strange Fatality.

Gov. W. T. Durbin is the only man living who has been elected governor of Indiana. The fatality that seems to follow those who have filled this office is remarkable.

‘lt is a wearing office,”” said Attorney General Taylor, last evening, ‘‘a wearing office. Mr. Mount’s death was really a collapse, for he had been working for 30 days under a 300-pound pressure, and now that it-is over, he is gone. Thatis all there is to 1t.”? ) :

- While there is not an ex-governor living, many widows of ex-governors are yet alive. The widow of Dayid Wallace, - who .was governor from 1837 to 1840, represents the one who served in the earlier days. Mrs. Wallace makes her home at Cataract, but often visits her children and grandchildren in this city. The widow of Henry S. Lane, who served a short time in 1861, when he resigned to go to the United States senate makes her home in Crawfordsville. Mrs. Morton, whose husband followed Gov. Lane, has lived here for years and now makes her home in Broadway. The widow of Conrad Baker, who was acting governor from 1867 to 1869, and later served from 1869 to 1873, makes her home in Thirteenth street, in this city. Mrs. Baker has gone to Florida to spend the winter. - Thomas A. Hendricks followed Gov. Baker, and Mrs. Hendricks yet lives at the old home in Capitol avenue. Isaac P. Gray, as lieutentant governor, was elected at the same time as Gov. Williams, and, through his death, succeeded to the office and served in 1880 and 1881. His widow lives here with her son. Ira J. Chase succeeded to the office on the death of Gov. Hovey, and his widow lives in Wabash. Mrs. Matthews hasliyed -at the old home in Clinton since the death of Gov. Matthews, who was Gov. Mount’s predecessor. And now to the list of widows of ex-governors is added the name of Mrs. Mount, making nine in -all.—lndianapolis News. :

Big Deal in Real Estate.

. Straus Bros. & Co., of this city, have recently purchased a fine tract of 609 acres of land in Whitley county, situated equidistant from Huntington and Fort Wayne and within three and one half miles of Roanoke, a splendid market, on the Wabash railroad. The tract of land was formerly owned. by Stephen Bond of Fort Wayne and has been well improved. A fine dwelling house and a big barn as well as sheep and ‘hog barns are conveniently located. Two dwellings for tenants are also in good condition. In fact the farm has been well improved and is a most desirable piece of farm property. Itis situated in one of the most productive localities in the state and much of the acreage is under the plow but a large portion of the farm has been used for pasturageand is now under blue grass, making ideal pasture land. Excellent water under lies the farm and facilities have been provided for the use of water, two big steel wind pumps with the necessary tanks ete., being provided. This is one of the best purchases made by this popular firm of real estate men, for yearsand they will certainly be -able to find a‘ buyer for it at an early day. . 1

To Prison for Life.

Solomon Bear who murdered his son, will spend the remainder of his existence in prison. The jury after being out but a few short hours found him guilty of murder in the first degree and put the penalty at imprisonment for life. Thus ended one of the most stubbornly contested murder trials ever held in Noble county and all seem to be satisfied that the verdict is righteous and just finding. A young man in the full hey-day ef life was shot down in cold blood by an infuriated and self-willed parent. A threat oft times repeated was carried eut and a life was sacrificed to the passion of a man that had terrified his family and neighborheod for years. The i']ury took the right view and made the punishment fit the ¢rime.

Bear will be taken to prison where he can spend the remainder of his life in contemplatien of the crime that he has committed and the trouble that his temper has brought ufxon his family. His age will doubtless give him an easy assignment but beyond this he can expect but little sympathy.

A Fine Place.

The new saloon openéd a few weeks ago by Simon Ackerman is completely furnished and Mr. Ackerman is at home to his many friends from early morning until 11 o’clock at night. His place is one of the mostelaborate in this part of the state in all of its appointments and the proprietor is to be congratulated ufion the excellent show of taste in the selection of the furniture and fixtures. The bar is a most attractive piece of, workmanship, the decorations being elaborate and the design most pleasing. All of the modern conveniences are at hand and nothing has been left undone to entertain his guests. Simon’s Place as it has been designated is a credit to the proprietor and a show of enterprise seldom seen in so small a city. ‘

“My heart was ba.dl{ affected by an attack of grip and I suffered intense afiony until I began taking Dr. Miles’ Heart Cure. It made mea {V}ell man.”—S. D. Holman, Irasburg, 5 :

A Change of Firm.

A change in the well known and popular firm of E. Jacobs & Co.is announced. For more than twenty years this firm has been in business in Ligonier and it has become one of the leading mercantile institutions of the county, in which all of the readers of THE BANNER are interested. Mr. Eli Jacobs, the senior member of the firm, has been connected with the business since 1878, when the firm of Jacobs & Goldsmith was established. A few years later he and MeVer Jacobs absorbed Mr. Goldsmith’s interests and the firm as constituted for years, was organized. They have, by careful consideration of the needs of their customers and by close attention to business, built up a most gratifying trade with the best people of this part of the state. A trade that their methods well merit and their known integrity warrants. They have been the leaders of fashions and low prices and their success is the best evidence in the world that t»he(iir efforts have been fully appreciated.

The new partner in the firm, Mr. Maurice Hess, is one of our best known and most popular young men. For over twenty years he has been connected with the firm as a salesman and no young man in Ligonier has a wider circle of loyal friends than Mr. Hess. He has worked his way from the bottom round of the ladder, from a chore boy in the store to a partner, and, by his close attention to business details and the interests of his employers, has come to be one of the most trusted and best posted business men in the city. All are glad to note the well deserved advancement of Mr. Hess and his identifications with the business interests of Ligonier. He can not help but give strength to the new firm. He is young, energetic and well informed as to the needs and wants of our people. Heis wide awake to the best interests of the community and enterprising in his tendencies, the new firm of E. Jacobs & Co. is stronger and better by his co-operation and endeavor.

The new firm will continue along the same line as heretofore. They will cater to the best people of this community. They will continue to serve the people and offer the very best service. They will keep up the excellent reputation of the old firm for square dealing and courteous treatment. They propose to sell their goods at a profit but at the same time give the best possible goods at the lowest possible prices.. In fact, E. Jacobs & Co. will continue in their endeavor to lead ineverything. ;

Death of George Sack.

The announcement of the death of George Sack, Sr., at his home in this city, came as a sad surprise toa large circle of friends in this community. It was known that he was in poor health but few realized the seriousness of his condition. For nearly forty years Mr. Sack had been a familiar figure in Ligonier. Coming here in 1862 he at once took an active interest in affairs and entered into the baking business. For years in partnership with his brother, Christ Sack, who now resides north of this city, Mr. Sack carried on a business at the corner of Cavin and Third streets. Since a fire some years ago he has been in business by himself in the north room of the Banner Block. He was an ardent lover of music and had a most excellent knowledge of the theory of music.

George Sack, Sr., was born in Artzberg, Kingdom of Bavaria, Germany, March 8, 1834. He came to this country in 1853 and settled in Cincinnati where he remained for a period of four years, thenremoving to South Bend, Ind., living there five years. He then came to Ligonier where he resided until his death, Jan. 28, 1901. He was the oldest son of-a family of six children of which two are living, Christ Sack of this township and Frederick Sack of Chicago, his brothers. He was married to Miss Barbara Sheets of Ligonier in 1864, she died! in 1874, to them were born five children, three of whom 4re still living, George Sack, Jr., Mrs. Rose Beardsly of Chicago, and Mrs. Amelia Beazell of Indianapolis. He married again to Miss Antionetta Koenig in the year 1876, to which union were born eight children, all of them still living.- The funeral service, conducted by the Rev. Thos. G. Pearce, pastor of the Presbyterian church, was held at the home on Union street, Wednesday afternoon, January 30, 1901, and was largely attended.

With unusual strong physical health and strength, her death was a terrible shock to her husband and family, her illness lasting only about one week. She leaves to mourn their loss, a kind husband, one daughter and three sons, an aged mother, two sisters and many relatives and friends. Her last days were clouded with sorrow at the loss, within two years of her father, ana only. eight weeks ago, a dear sister, The mourning ones have the tender sympathy of their friends in their affliction. ' The funeral services were conducted at the Christian church in Ligonier by Rev.T. J. Mawhorter, pastor of the Cosperville Free Baptist church. Interment in the Ligonier cemetery.

To Our Customers.. We have lately made a very important change in our business affairs. We have completely re-organ-ized our firm and in doing so it has become absolutely necessary that we have complete settlement of allof our outstanding notes and accounts to January 27,1901. While we do not want to put any of our old customers to any inconvenience we must insist upon some arrangement by which we can close the books of the old firm. Mr. Maurice Hess, well known to all of our custemers, has pprehased an interest in our business and has taken an active interest in the management of the affairs of the firm. This makes it necessary that a complete set of new books must be opened and that the old accounts be put in proper shape. We hope that you will take advantage of the next thirty days to adjust old accounts mutually satisfactory. The new firm will expect a continuance of your favors and their share of your business.
