Th:re is a road district in Gibson count t that has some macadamized i-oadi, and its citizens are talking of macadamizing more roads. , The third Monday ol this month is the list day for paying the first.installment of tax. Those who do not want to be crowded would db well lo sc tie early. Gi rx the Democrats both branches of Congress, and more than sugar will get cheaper, and markets for farm products will be opened with rnon countries than a few little agricultural South American States. Tee patronage furnished the show on Wednesday niglit of last week docs not argue that the people have any idea that the theatre properly conducted is wrong. Whether a show is right or wrong depends upon gkt t the show is and who attends it. Tie diflerent ornanizations of the country should discuss the question of our present unnecessary expenditures of gigantic proportions. When a government takes $24 out of vonr pocket and gives it to some one else, |t certainly does what it has no moral yiglit to do.

A “lugger,” a low down one at that, is seen on our streets occasionally with white women—usually at night. {Sometimes the women are not women, rbut mere gir)6. Do yon think it time to attend conventions and to nominate men who wiLl execute the law ? There are a number ot willing sacrifices, so far as the County Assessor to iiw appointed by Couniy Commissioners is concerned, . ^je appointment will be made June 3d. There is no politics in the act providing for the office. The Countv Assessor may he of any political party whatever. Away down South, a Georgia editer preaches a whole editorial sermon wt pii he states In homely but forcible laiguage: “The longer we run a lie ysper and write about people and events, the more we realize how impawible'it is to scratch every man On jh< 8pot which itches the most.”—Ex. A newspaper will fight the political warfare of office-holders during every campaign. They do not cease .between times. They go on forever, from campaign to campaign. If, jthen, a newspaper man happens to be favorably considered iu the distribution of the loaves and fishes that fall from the table of those who sit in high places, ought any one object ? One of our local papers criticised fhe Grand Jury for what the editor seemed to think an investigation of violators of the election laws, .and iutimated that only late Republican .candidates were ID be investigated. Now, as there were Democrats and Republicans ou the jury; and, as no investigation could have been made without the Republican members knowing all about it, it would seem that the pflitor referred to was suffering a too vivid imagination, brought on, perhaps, by reflections from the last campaign. Spbixg, with its many showers and changes, is upon us, apparently in good earnest. It is the time of year when men mu6t bestir themselves. Onlv he who sows can reap his own, and he who would reap a harvest must sow. Our prosperity depends upon our iudustry. It is safe to say that, in this country, nature has doiic more for the people thau they have done for themselves. Too much idleness characterizes our people. Too much time is spept idly. No set of men waste so much valuable time as the common laborer. No one, be he following any occupation whatever, will ever lack for Vrork that urill be gpofltable. The

trouble in, that njost men rail 10 improve the opportunities they have. Every farmer should know how to ^pngraft fruit; should know how to pccnpy his extra time in fertilizing his land: in short, should learn that every moment can be profitably employed, and that the reward will come as surely as tfie proper industry is employed for securing It. It has been demonstrated that three days work in a week, by a good hand, will plotlic and feed a family of nine comfortably, apd that live days work in each week will comfortably keep a family and will secure quite p sung little fortune in a lift* time, if |he proper economical cafe aud caution is obseryed during life. Of pourse, great reverses of fortune eau- - not be taken into account, for enough of what is called bad" luck will place “ "“^Tbid way for prospert But, with proper moral conduct ‘ sufficient Industry and economy, -any one wi» secure wealth, and happineas. *# •"*' > ^

“Just Consider.” Every time you take a cup of tee or coffee just consider that the republican party sells you twenty pounds or sugar for A dollar.—Evansville Journal. When did ihe Republican party go into the grocery busiuess? and to whom is it selling sugar? The Journal’s readers may believe such stuff, but the intelligent people know better. Seriously, the Journal refers to the McKinley bill vfhich had the one virtue of taking the tariff off sugar and thereby making it cheaper, of course. The Journal, like all the i other Republican papers, has grown “cranky” over this, the only good thing in the McKinley bill. The Democrats are very well pleased with cheap sugar aud can enjoy its use as well as auy Republican. The republican papers are making a specialty of rejoicing over free sugar. What great cause(they would have had for rejoicing if the Mills Bill had become a law, whereby the poor washer woman would have been able to earn a woolen gown by doing fewer days’ work; the poor man to have bought his tin cups cheaper than under the McKinley Bill; the common people to have bought cheaper skillets, teapots, coffee-pots, blankets, coats, pauts, vests; the poor woman to have bought cheaper and better clothing: and whereby a dose of oil for a sick child would have been cheapened. If free trade on sugar makes a Republican so happy, what would be the result if the Democratic idea of free trade as far as it is possible (considering the necessity of a revenue) should prevail? They surely would be happier than a negro at a camp-meeting 1 It is a matter ot much delight to Democratic papers, that the Republicans have got far enough along in their tariff lessons'to know that free trade in sugar, or'sugar without tariff, is a good thing because it makes sugar cheaper. It has not been long since they learned this first lesson. But they will have to go a little further on, learn a few more pages in their little books, or listen to a few more lectures, for they have not yet learned that taking the tariff off other articles will make them cheaper just as it does sugar. Yes; give us cheap sugar, and, while yon are at it, give us the prime necessaries of life cheaper. Turn a few more pages in

your linn primer, ana quu arguing, you poor cranks, that some articles must be taxed to make them cheap; get rid of that bald-headed idea that sugar must not be taxed to make it cheap, mud that the washerwoman’s gown must be taxed to make it cheap! Still another matter these hilarious Republican papers1, might call attention to. They might call attention to those provisions in the wouderful McKinley Bill which raises the tax on many of the prime necessaries of life and takes a part of the money thus virtually stolen from the people and applies it to paying a bounty to sugar growers, thus robbing Peter to pay Paul. Now let, us see how this sweet sugar tariff works. Just as the people were expecting some relief from the sugar tariff tax,because on the first of April the tariff tax was removed, and sugar ought to be cheaper, the big sugar trust and Sprecklcs, its only opponent, form an agreement to keep up the price until they can make the people pay for several thousand tons they hare on hand yet to refine, and upon which they paid duty. Great is this Republican sugar law. _ It compels the people to pay a tax to the trust and also two ceuts a pound to Lousiana planters and Vermont sap suckers I Great Is Republican financiering! What The Soldiers Clot. A good many have ceinplained about the Indiana Legislature’s not complying with the soldier’s requests in its last session. This complaint has not come from the soldiers. They know the facts a good deal better than these who do the complaiuiug. The complaints are made bv those who want to make a little political capital, and who do not know the facts. Now let us see: The soldiers asked the legislature to exempt them from working the roads. This request was granted in an act that complies with their wishes, and hereafter no one who resides in Iudiana and who served in the Union army duriug the rebellion will be required to work the roads. They petitioned the Legislature for an appropriation for completing the Soldier’s Monument at Indianapolis, and got $100.000.00 for that purpose. There was also a request for an appropri-. ■tion for the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Orphans’ Home. $57,000.00 was allowed for that purpose. Under these circumstances, one need not be surprised at no complaints from the soldiers. though designing politicians and demagogues do manufacture a cause for complaint.

Few 8Uhj€ici8 will noi Dear scieiititle investigation. In such an investigation, the reader or student is often at a loss to know what is meant until the remotest conclusion is reached. For example, if we should start out by saying that each thing iu all nature is a half and suggest another half to make a whole, you perhaps would, unless yot| havo thought o» it, be at * loss to know what was meant; and yet such is exactly the case, for if there no “down” there could be no “up,” and not only of direction is this true, but with aU things. If no darkness, no light; no north, no south; there is male and female; wo have two eyes, two ears, right and left, and even good and evil in the same being. Good cannot exist without the possibility of evil. But this does not sigaity that evil must be committed, though evil imperfections exist everywhere, even in God’s handiwork. Yet there is a remedy throughout all nature, and that remedy Is a healthy growth, a tendency to destroy the evil aud re -

store good. A healthy growth, whatever nay be the means employed tc produce it, heals the Imperfections ol forest, orchard, and field. And sc we may apply these troths to Petersburg. A healthy moral growth will result in much good. The mors nearly perfect the moral health, th« better and speedier will be the results. Let-a town or country be quiet on the morals of the people, and the physically and mentally healthy moral being will yield to the evils that are thus given advantage. As to Petersburg, our schools, churches, and Sunday Schools are an evidence of moral tendencies; our county jail with its criminal inmates is an evidence of the people’s defense against evil. This is true of every community. He who would do his duty and make a good citizen will always be found helping the good by defending it agaiust all evil. And he will destroy the wrong whenever and wherever he may find the defense of the good demands it. Such a one will, of course, use the means the law gives him, and will not attempt to make laws of his own for each special occasion; and moreover, he will not indulge any practice which he may know to be wrong—a thing which is a severe criticism on saloonists, keepers of gambling dens and bagnios, and all other evil institutions. __ The Grata Cradle. In the year 1844, Mr. Betts, of the State of Connecticut, came to Vincennes and settled on a small farm adjoining the town, says the Olney Republican. Being of an igenious turn of mind, he turned his attention to the agricultural wants of the people. He soon found out that the farmers were catting their grain with the grain hook or sickle, and he manufactured a grain cradle for himself. He told them and explained bow it would cut grain, and that be could cut as much as five or six acres per day. They laughed at him and said these long crooked sticks (meaniug the fingers) would tangle in the grain, and they scoffed at the idea of him catting six acres of oats, which he said he could do, and Belt’s grain machine was a joke.

Cne farmer made a proposition to him: if he would cut a five acre patch of oats for him in a day he said he would give him a cow and calf. Mr. Betts took hfm at his proposal. So when the day arrived, Betts and cradle were on hand bright and early, audio his surprise the fence surrounding f^ie oafs patch was full of farmers who for miles around had heard of the “Bett’s grain machine,” and came (mmse the failure, and when he cominraled they got off the fence and followed him around, and every one was surprised. Those crooked sticks did not tangle as they predicted, but the oats were thrown in the nicest swath. They measured the width of cut and found it over six feet wide. One man timed him while he' cut 40 rods, and said that it beat anything in the annals of grain cutting. One aspiring fellow said he believed he could run that machine. Mr. Betts let him try and he soon got the stroke. Soon another wanted to try. Finally all wanted to trv. That five acres was cut by the middle of the afternoon and Mr. Betts did not cut one fourth of an acre of it. He got orders for more machines than .he could make. One of our townsmen who is engaged in business was last week advertising Winter goods right here in April. Prepare for Winter by purchasing your Winter Goods of the undersigned,” is the barren admonition he wonld have his customers heed. As they do not wear Flannel in May, June, Jully and August, they will not heed. Another man in busi ness declares that he has a Fall stock, including blankets, flannel, etc. He evidently is looking for a cold snap sometime next August. Such advertising is not worth a fig. A merchant should study so profitable a business as judicious advertising. People read these advertisements. When they find a merchant is not reliable in an advertisement they lose confidence in him, and instead of the advertisement doing him good, it does him harm. The men who do good woik in their advertisement are the most successful merchants in every town. Business men should learn to say the right thing at the right time; to quote prices and offer their inducements iu the most inviting manner possible. For Laboring Men. As between the Democratic and Republican parties, some observations may be made that will show some interesting facts in reference to labor. Wages have been protected against thieving Pluck Me Stores. The work day has been reduced to eight hours. The infamous law which treated workingmen as felons, passed by a Republican Legislature, and known as the “Intimidation Law,” has been repealed by Mr. Nolan’s bill, that passed the Legislature two years ago. All of these things and many more have been accomplished by Democratic Legislatures, and they have been fought trom first to last by Republicans. There is not a law on the statute books of Indiana tending to ameliorate the condition of Labor that was uot put there by Democrats, despite can nartv.

T)ie reduction ot the sugar duties on the 1st Of April will lessen the expenses of the average family to the extent of or $7 a vear: and that ie more than the Democratic party has done for the whole” course of it* existencePetersburg News. Only last campaign the New* declared that the duties, or tariff, do not increase the price of an article, that tariffs make the articles taxed all the cheaper. These assertions were a & false as the present assertion about what the Democratic party has not done. What amount of money did the last congress take out of each man’s pocket by the extravagant ap* yraprlatlpiis?

Goodjnusic will be provided and every effort made to make the meetings interesting and profitable to all. Mrs. Mary E. Ilaggart, State Pres, of Indiana W. C. T. U., and Miss Mary G. Hay, State Treasurer, will be here. Also Mrs. Eileu Denny,of Vincenues, as speakers, and probably 25 or 30 delegates. ' ■ Mrs. Haggart gty»»5 ttae last and best effort of the conference occasion. She will close the conference the night of 22d with a lecture, subject to be announced later. Mrs. Haggart waa born in Washington Co.,Penn., in 1844. Her father, Rev. S. S. Roth well, is still active in the ministry, and a member of Pittsburg conference. He is noted for his unflinching integrity, and great force of character, and for bis wonderful power as a pulpit orator. Her mother is a women of extraordinary mental power, and great energy and endurance. Mrs. Haggart has inherited to a great degree these sterling traits of both father and mother. She possessed remarkable executive ability, is very positive and determined in her character,and independent in thought. She is a graduate of Southwestern Normal, Pennsylvania, and manifested,while a school girl,8uch marked abillity as an orator that when only fifteen years of age, she was urged hv leading anti-slavery agitators in her county to prepare and deliver an address upon the Injustice of Negro Slavery.

This invitation she accepted and her logic and eloquence, with her youthful enthusiasm, so delighted and impressed the people that she was taken to a number ot anti-slavery meetings to deliver the address and won an enviable reputation as au orator. In 1867 she married Dr. David Uaggart, a man of liberal views,and in full-sympathy with the advancement of women* Soon afler their marriage,they moved to Danville, Iud. In house-keeping, as in a|l she undertook, she excelled. A lecture course by home talent was inaugurated by the Normal professors, and Mrs. Ilaggart wast persuaded to give one lecture of the course. She chose as her subject, “Woman’s True Culture,’^ and carvied her hearers captive by her unexpected eloquence and depth of logic. Later she delivered the same lecture in Indianapolis, receiving the highest encomiums front the press. She soon became known throughout Ind. and other states as a “Websterian” lecturer and advocate of reform. On several occasions she has addressed the General Asseinbly of Indiana in behalf of the legal and political equality of women, her address makiug a profound impression. In 1876she established the Woman's Tribune which she edited for a year and a half. She was the originator of the plan for a Woman’s Department in the State Fair, and was President of its Board of Managers for six years. Her executive ability made it the success it was and won the unqualified endorsement of this State Board of Agriculture. Mrs. Florence Adkuson, thus sums up her many noble qualities: “Modest and unassuming, wise anil prudent, earnest and sympathetic, yet strong and having the courage of hei convictions, practical and reliant, undaunted aud eloquent, Mrs. Haggarl is justly rauked as one of the ablest advocates of woman’s enfranchisement. A sincere frieiM, ever ready to counsel, encourage ana aid; she has been no less helpful to wotueu in private life. A devoted wife, a model housekeeper, au accomplished home-maker all the domestic virtues aud grace! thrive around her hearthstone. Blessed with large, healthy and cultured braiu; of strong magnetic, courageous presence; enviable scholarly attainments; a peer iu legal research and reassuring power; imbued with reliant, practical Christian faith, and undaunted iu her advocacy of the heaven-born principle for whict she is so arduously loiliug, Mrs Haggart reminds us of an oft-tried general who never retreated, uevei lost a battle.”

11 O Ulvl \ ur. naggari ua*u iu xooo. than any other had urged her.to a ful development of her talents as a writei and speaker, and rejoiced in her brilliant achievements. For a time she seemed bereft ol all incentive or desire for public work, but calls came to her and last summer she accepted a position as National lecturer for the W. C. T. U. bat it was not till the call of the leadership of the Indiana W.C. T. U pame to her that she telt there was “something upon which she could concentrate her powers,” and whict could satisfy the emptiness of hei life.
