ZlSrThe cut illustrates the hand and foot lever system, for elevating the runners, and forcing them into the hard ground. It enables the driver to force the runners in with one foot, and with the other elevate them. He can also elevate the runners, standing in the rear of the Planter—features that are in no other Planter. The change of depth is brought within his instant control while sitting in the seat. This feature is a late improvement. This cut shows the rear covering wheels and runners elevated from the ground. The planter has no equal.

NAPPANEE NEWS. Nappanbe, Elkhart County, Ind. A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE. By GORDON N. MURRAY. - We notice that some of our country contemporaries hare taken Cripffle Creek property. Congress may as well adjourn. Senator Peffer will never amount to a gold cure for the bond habit, anyhow. There is any amount of evidence in sight that the question of free coinage of silver is not masquerading in a “harmony garb”. An Elkhart paper only has to mention something about having “court” in that city, to arouse things to a warpaint status at Goshen. There is a suspicion abroad that it wont do for the Roby sports to monkey with the chief executive of this Iloosler commonwealth. The McKinley boom seems to have taken everything in but the Democrats, aqd it is likely to include them before the year passes. During the ensuing campaign season, we trust that many of our subscribers will And it convenient to work in a little free silver now and then. That little story scheme of a plan for the Democrats to “straddle” presidential honors, seems to have had the effect to encourage them to believe that something will turn up. John W. Nusbaum, editor of the Shipsbewana Tribune, was married in Elkhart last Wednesday to Mrs. Minnie Haines, at the home of the bride. The News extends congratulations. Elkhart was last week noted for two things that happened over there—O. Z. Hubbell declined to be a candidate for Lieutenant-Governor, and Capt. J. S. Dodge announced himself a candidate for Governor. It is not the thought of Bill McKinley that enthuses the Republicans, so much as it is the McKinley bill. This is what is killing off the booms of favorite sons. It is that which is squeezing Boss Platt in New York, too. The South Bend I'mies has n\ade an improvement in its mechanical department indicating the success attained by that paper. The improvement is a web perfecting press, one of the first to be placed in any printing office in this part of the State. An Elkhart saloon man is quoted as saying that it is the numerous local building and loan associations that have killed the saloon business in that city. This was not intended, perhaps, as such, but it is about the bfest argument for the prohibition of the liquor traffic ever advanced. TnE Elkhart Review says: “It is said that the Republican committee is seriously considering the project of abandoning the apportionment suit, and holding the election under the law of 1885. That would be good sense as well as good policy. Thq, suit should never have been begun.” Just now there seems to be an occasion of mutual rejoicing among the politicians because of the prevailing differences or opinions on the question of the free coinage of silver. Whenever the question is referred to by the gold standard adherents in either party it is generally backed up with a more-harmony-than-the-other-fellows kind of a smile. Francis E. Berlin, of Locke township, has been talked of, by the Republicans of this part of Elkhart county, as a candidate for commissioner from the southern district. Instead of announcing: “I am in the hands of my friends,” Mr. Berlin states in public print over his signature that he has not sought the nomination nor will he accept it. The Nappanee Republicans will have to be looking elsewhere for a candidate, though it is generally understood, that they might look farther than- their first choice, /• 1 and not improve on it any.

The new law requiring innumerable “fringes" in taking the enumeration will cost the-people just about twice what the work did under the old law. It may #etve a purpose to prevent “padding” in the cities, if it is possible to prevent such a thing in , .faking the school enumeration, but so far as the country districts and small towns are concerned it is “red tape without any benefits. The most salutary and significant act of the legislature of 1895, -relating to the benevolent institutions of the state was a measure for the better government and control of the four hospitals for the insane, the institute for the blind and the institution for the education of the deaf,” says the annual report of the board of State charities. “The enactment of this law is regarded as one*of the most important steps ever taken in Indiana to elevate our public institutions above the control or influence of partisanship. Following its going into effect, appointments of boards of control under its provisions were made by the governor and the benevolent institutions embraced in its operations have gone on quietly and prosperously in their work, free from the confusion and demoralization which in past years would have followed a change in the political majority of the legislature. The almost universal approval of this law proves that it was in accord with public sentiment. It is most gratifying to observe the dawn of the day in which the care of the helpless and erring wards of the state will be entrusted only to officers of recognized training and fitness for the special duties which they are called upon to perform, and when the possession of this training and fitness shall be the only required test to eligibility to receive or hold their positions.” Formal Ceremony Held at the Howe Military School at Lima. The corner stones of two additions of Howe military school at Lima, Lagrange county, were laid Friday aftnoon. Rev. John Hazen White, D. D., bishop of the diocese of Indiana, and Rev. Boyd Vincent, D. D., bish; op of southern Ohio, conducted the services and the Episcopal clergy from all over the state were in attendance. Cadets of the school took part in the ceremony. The buildings will bear the names of James B. Howe hall and Blake hall. They are gifts to the institution. T-he James B. Howe hall will cost SIO,OOO and will be a gymnasium and dormitory, and Blaise hall, will be a mress hall, searing 15(T carets ' and Costing $6,000. Both will be of brick and will be completed in September.
