I'M'd'.U. interest is manifested in tliO spring election* in Ohio, especially in tbn cities,on account Of the ihfluetoce 'the resultis expected to IutVe on the canvass, next fall. One hundred and fifty Mormon converts left Chattanooga, Tenn., 1 ,st week for Utah. Xinety Mormon missionaries are at work in the South, and thy annual number of converts is given as 700._ . The star route trial is in its fifth month and is still progressing. It will be likely to for some time yet. The Government attorneys - arc getting $100'each per day, and have already received about :|>1.)0,000. The political party that doesn't take 4 firm stand on a platform of Tariff Reform, Anti-Monopoly, opposition to Centralization, and a reduction of the War ltcveiihe will soon find itself "without a body to kick or a soul to damn.” ..Kill..- ... It may not be generally known to the average man, but it is nevertheless a fact that the State of Pennsylvania in itself is as large as England, Irclahd hud Scotland combined. This statement appears improbable and yet it is beyond refutation. BHHS55SBSSH The Cincinnati college of medicine and surgery lues opened its doors to lady students. This is the first regular school of medieino in the city to take that important step. The college has also started a training school for nurses which gives promise of much usefulness. Xeay Exulaxu cotton mill owners are importing cheap foreign labor. One lot of girls has just been brought into New Hampshire to run American labor out and -reduce the wages, now below the British standaid. And yet these lords of monopoly must be protected by Congress. By the nature of things there will soon be'three vacancies in bigli stations in the old world. Queen Victoria is old and cannot live many years longer to rule the “tight little isle.” King William is old amt feeble. Bismarck, “the man of iron,” is old* and infirm. These three historic people will soon have to he followed by sues eessors, .

Ahtul'h 18 carefully earing for the halt and blind who were defeated in the struggle last fall. The St. Paul Call says: A general white house call is said to read: "OoinO unto me all ye that Were kicked out by the"people and I will give you an office.” This is Wild to the great defeated, but it is rough on the people. They mourn over it. : , Xue ‘'star of Bethlehem” Which shown so brightly at the birth of the Savior, is announced to appear again in August 1887 accompanied by a total eclipse of both sun and moon. This star appears every 315years and when it appears this tiiiie, astrologers prophesy that storms war and desolation will smite the earth- North America will be shaken by a revolution such as history has never yet ehomielcd. The Republican party cuts a beaullfnl figure as a party of “principles” and truly “moral ideas.” It is run bv monopolies,whippedrft by monopolies, bullied and intimidated by monopolies. proposes to obey monopoly rather than the people of the United States. Which is the party of blunders ? Verily, the greatest political bluudeving of the day is that of the Republican party when it stands squarely against tarill reduction. _’ •J. W. 0 la dish, editor of the Press, held up liis hand ami swore that the Delinquent list published by him contained four hundred ttvd eiyhty-onc. descriptions, and presented his hill at twenty cents a description, the full amount allowed by law, and was .allowed and paid by the countyfor that mini her. \| ill some of our readers procure a copy of the Press containing the list and count the descriptions, and then tell us what they think of * him as a truthful individual.

The climate is not suitable to Germans, and the fate of the colony can readily be foretold, should it ever be established-. Thf, opinion that the grand jurv system isn-relie of barbarism which rather ini pedes than advances the cause of jus'tii-e is gradually growing in themind of the better class of lawyers and of all considerate people out-' side of the legal profession, and already numerous legislatures have shorn tlie ete&nrte star chamber inquisition of much of its powers while in some states the system lias been a ha intoned a1 together. Thomas J. Bh.vuv in his testimony in the star route cases, incidentally referred to the fact that he had been chairman of the Indiana State Repute lioan eomntittee and that he was “called upon to advise with Dorseyt” They went to “Chamberlain’s, Fostctcame in and they had a few glasses of wine,” Chamberlain's is a notorious gambling' resort: Bo while honest; earnest, teipperauee Republicans were advising voters in this "State to support the Republican ticket on the score of morality and temperance, their leaders were hobnobbing in a gambling resort. “Truth is mighty and must prevail,” and .the means used to carry the elections in 1S$0 will all be exposed in the end.

The most important changes made by the Legislature in relation to the settlement of decedents’ estates are^ summed up by tlnfeIndianapolis Sentinel as follows‘vTlie Master Commissioner is abolished; Notice Uf pe= titions to sell real estate are to be made by publication ns provided in the old lawi .Administrators and executors can allow claims same as under the old law. The Clerk's fees for docketing claims, etc., is limited to ten cents. Administrators are only to report at the end of one year from taking out letters, unless sale notes are sooner collected. Final reports only to be advertised, unless considered of such importance by the Court as to be ordered advertised* These do not, include all the changes made, but the principal ones, and officers should take notice and govern themselves accordingly, as the law is now in force.” The new revenue bill contains one provision that 'will atlord a small measure of relief to the small Indiana tobacco growers, who unde* the old law were forbidden to retail their crop to consumers. It is this: '■Provided that farmers and producers of tobacco may sell at the place of production tobaceo of their own growth and raising at retail directly to consumers to an amount not exceeding one hundred dollars annually.'’ Heretofore, farmei'Hi were not allow ed to sell hands, or twists, of their own tobacco crop in small quantities to consumers, but under the new law they may do this, provided they sell it on their own farms directly to consumers. It will bo observed that they -cannot take the tobacco in small quantities to the nearest town or store and dispose of it; they must sell to consumers at the place of production, and their total retail sales must not exceed $100 a year.__

1 he farmer tuat spends $400 a year for groceries, clothing anti household necessities for Ins family should remember that over $100 of the amount is taken from bint W the increased cost caused by the high tariff. If such a farmer spends Jill he makes, he will readily see that with a .tariff for revenue only he could save and lay up about $100 a year. Suppose this farmer finds that he can ordinarily i#:lkc $400 a year and it takes all he can make to keep him, what is he to do in case of misfortune or if sickness runs up a doctor's bill of $100? There is but one thing he can do. lie must borrow the mono}, and perhaps mortgage his farm. Then nothing but extra good luck can save him; but if his expenses were $100 a year less he would soon conhe out all right and have plenty of money on hand. This illustrates the difference between a high protective tariff and a revenue tariff as it applies to farmers, for the farmer sells nothing that is increased in price by protection. Moke them oho hundred minions ' will be demanded this year lor pensions. The more remote from the period of the late war the larger becomes the demands for this purpose. If this money were all applied to worthy objects only, those who wore indeed suffering from disease and wounds engendered by the war, no reasonable objection could be advanced against it. But it is a notorious fact that imposture and perjury and all sorts of frauds are perpetrated under the charitable guise of pensions and through such corrupt channels millions are pouring into the coffers of scurvy claim agents and going to unworthy claimants. Fitzgertjld whose nhino figures so prominently as a soldier's friend has made a princely fortune and erected a mugnStHcent !imansion in the fashionable }iortion of , Washington CJity—all out of tlic penision- business. Other agents have even, exceeded him in this line, au<l the jiob grows fatter as the date of the war recedes its the mists of twenty years ago.

in County Affairs Under {kpiiblicaii-Ni-toiai Aduiiiwratiou Asbmts t» have a Jjf Taken the Wrong Route. ; PsrhapB the Better English of It WowM he that It Has Been Entrant* nd to bad Hands. It will be 5[<<b«iwary for Bro. Qladuh to FontnUte a sew Bole in Mathematics and Another Definition for that Ponderoim Word, “Befolio,” In Order to Save Himself 'Zh&hcdess in the Premises The duties Of an editor are at t imes extremely ifttpiensant, especially when it Becomes our duty to take public no* tice of the irregularities of some one, and more especially if that some one happens to be a brother editor. But to expose error and condemn wrong aIV some of the fivneticms of a newspaper, Newspapers are published in the interest of the ptiVtficn and the public lias the right to know IhV facts about matters reftfmg to lt8 ihi'ePest and for which it tuft to pay. The Legislator tjf 1881-2 passed a law altoUdftg to the printer the sum twenty cents for eaeh description of real estate advertised for sale for delinquent taxes—and that no lauds should be advertised where the taxes wore not double the amount of the costs. Now let’tis compare Bro. Gladish's charges for publishing the delin-, qucii} list with the law. He charged and received the sum of $96.20 (see Commissioners’ record; March term, 188;$). Counting twenty cents for each description, would give four hundred and eighty-one descriptions. Taking the Press of February 23,1883, and carefully- counting the descriptions of land in the delinquent list, we find only throe hundred and sixtyd^ur descriptions-, which at twenty cents for each Would (fitly give $7t».80, makiug an overcharge of $^3.40, which Mr G. should pay back into the county treasury. Mr. Gladisli’s accounts will be found among the files of the March term, 1883, of CoinluissioHefs’ court, and when you find it you will also find that he lifted up his hand'and swore to high Heaven that it was correct.

But by taking the Press containing the list, you will find that lie was mistaken, and that his mistake was a net gain to him of just $23.40. If Mr, G. is an honest man, and we hope lie is, Hie will correct this mistake and refund tilt; money. The people wefe promised economy and reform in all county matters if they would only elect the ‘'■National Greenback-Republican ticket.’’ that county taxes would be reduced to almost a minimum. The people relying on those promises elected a pari: of that ticket. Now this mistake occviring in the beginning looks bad—lil fact, looks very'naughty, but perhaps it can all be explained. Again, the law says that Ho land shall be advertised for sale where the tax is not double the amount of costs. By taking the Press containing tile list and referingto Lockhart township you will find sixty town lots in the town ot* Jonesboro in name of “Unknown Owner,’" the total costs against which is $17.31. The cost of'ndvertising sixty lots at twenty cents each' would be $12.00. Take this amount from $17.31 and you have the amount of taxes due on the lots, which is $5.31. Now. for this violation of the law Mr. Gladish received the neat little sum of $12.00, and ltd one else is benefitted. The costs cannot be charged to the lots because the advertisement was illegal and wrong, and like county is the loser.. Now, these are matters everyone can investigate for himself. All you will have to do will be to get a copy of the Press containing the delinquent'list, and examine it.

Lighten the Taxes. The New York Mercury says tlie average Republican Congressman seems to go upon the principle that it is possible to tax the people into prosperity* Though the people last fall demanded at tlief polls a revision of the tariff', these able-headed statesmen imagine that they can be fooled by an arrant false pretense of reform which only scratches the surface. A tariff' for revenue is a necessity, but when the governments power to impose such a fax Is prevented into a gigantic . interference with business interests in the shape of legislation which enriches the few at theexpteftsc of the many, it becomes the vilest tyranny. The proof of over-taxation is found in the enormous surplus which gorges the public treasury and which has served only to debauch the eonsciences of legislators stud to inaugurate an era of corruption. This unnecessary taxation is a crime against tire people. The drain of $15O,000j<XK) annually and above the necessities of the Government not only embarrasses business and obstructs the channels of trade, hut it robs the working classes and create* pot'e'rfy.- The Republican party, under the specious guise of patriotism, has taxed the nation nearly to death by way of clicking it, and now coolly asks the country to believe that its policy is creditable. There is but onepopular policy for the general, State and municipal ’govern- ! ltfetffif.' taxes mnst be lightened in all direct Jons to the lowest point consistent with a wiso economy. The party or the* politician found opj*osing this issue may as well invite the mourners to its or his fuAOrid. Jay Goulo’s Iron1 and Steel Mills at St. Louis were closed on account of a strike among the workingmen belonging to a Labor Uwioii organized for the protection <yf ftflSbring men Gould imports a gang of non union men, and the result is several hundml persons out of employment. Jay Gould's iron and stecUwprotected by the government against importation, while his workingmen are discharged because they are members of a mutual protection organization. It is an outrage; and again the words of Theodore Tilton cone to us. “American labor can onlv 1»b redeemed by the flaring light of four hundred buVnftig Kittslnirgs.” This sentiment may be revolutionary bull it begins ♦tz len* thirngb Tiften was correct, in his conclusions, drawn from a dose study of the great conflict between capital and labor.—[Crawfordsville Review

(See read law, 1881, section 15.) “If they have not already done so. it Is the duty of read superintendents to immediately turn over to the township trustees all the property aud money In their hands belonging to his township pertaining to roads* While it is not required by them to make snqh settlement, if the county road supeitendents desire an immediate settlement there will be no impropriety iu your calling an extra session of the county- commissioners for that purpose.” ' Referring to section 20 of the new read law; “Doubtless the parties who had not paid their taxes would have the right to work out their tax, and it will be pMller for you to make out a read-l ist of that elass of persons.
