flow is the Nicholsoh bill going to ppss the senate. The Indiana legislature and U. S. seuate are on about an even basis. All work should be let to the lowest bidder. And by the #ay all material furnished should be let to the lowest bidder. Til* republicans should remove the /whiskey from the basement of the ptate house. Some pf the moral legislators might become “inflooenced. ” George W. McBride is the new penator from Oregou. After thirtyfhreedayshe succeeded in defeating Senator Dolph. He is a republican. Congress adjourns next Monday #nd the Indiana legislate rewill do fhe same thing a few days later. The i statesmen jpill then return to their furious homes. Read the advertisements in today’s paper. The merchants are advertising bargains for the spring trade, pnn’t forget them when you go to ptake your purchases. Tpp state legislature will take the appointive power out of the hands of |he governor and select officials for the benevolent and penal institutions pf the state and make them purely partisan in the future. Senator Ransom, of North Carolina, has been nominated b? /Cleveland as minister to Mexico to £11 the vacancy caused by the death .of Hon. Isaac P. Gray. The nomination was confirmed by the senate. The Indiana legislature one day last week was manned by eight representatives. The rest of the members had gone home, hut were drawing their salaries just the same. A resolution was offered to fine each absentee $6 for each day’s absence, in order to keep a few in their peats.

The Democrat is proud of its energetic and efficient corps of county .correspondents. Each week the minor news events, togather with bright and brief personal gossip, are interestingly served from all parts of the county. This is a feature nearly as old as the paper, and it has never been more .complete thau at present. Thj^lower house of the legislature pas passed a bill changing the judicial circuits of several counties in this sectipn. Y&uderburg prill be a cirpuit by itself. Gibson and Posey will forpa pnn and Rike and Dubois wilt be thrown together. This would give Governor Matthews a chance to appoint a judge for this district if the pill beponies a law. It is right and proper that those prbo haye prospered apd haye in a yery lar§# measure gathered togethpr a large share of this world's goods should help support the government. State and pouuty. It is not incumbent upon any person to support the poor on)y insofar as he may he taxed by a county. But it shows the noble Qualities of a man to giya willingly pud freely to the poor. $o man is pompelled to do so, but only of bis 8WP. fre« *ud disposition.

Knew* Whereef he Speaks. We bo(>e in some subsequent issue to give a description of things we saw st Washington, D. C. Wa were greatly impressed wiitb the greet usefulness of Congressman Taylor to his constituents and time may never be able to show the first district the loss it will sustain by having defeated Congressman Tavlor. At the pension department we went assured that no more faithful officer ever represented any district in the United States in Congress than Arthur H. Taylor. His friends in the departments are legion. We learned that the pension department was never in the hands of better and truer friends to the old soldiers than now, and those cheap one horse politicians whb^howled up and down the highways last-fall that enemies of the soldiers were in charge of afiairs at Washington, did not know what they wpre talking about. We had personal interviews with quite a number' of officials in the pension department, their very countenance put to lie the 2x4 politician, any man can learn for himself the truth of this statement. The countenance of a man is an index to his soul and uo one but a knave and a coward would go about abusing these officers as was done last year. While we were in the city we learned of George W. Lltherland’s iucrease from $2 to $6 per month, from June 20th 1890, also ot Elfrich's restoration to the pension roll ut 112; ,SiicP$o good work goes on. Only recently Simeon Schmidt was granted an increase from $14 to $30 per month. The increase was due the old 6oldier and after his applicantiou for an increase the government did not wait so very long before it was allowed. Our readers can rest assured that a more faithful and conscientious management of the pension department was never had in this country than we uow have it.—Tell City News.

Took Morphine. Zook Luttreli, a farmer living iu Monroe township near Arthur, com* milted suicide last Wednesday evening by taking the full contents of a bottle of morphine. Some time that evening he took the fatal drug and soon after went into convulsions and died in terrible agony Thursday morning at five o’clock. He was about 20 years of age and came there from: Kentucky several years ago. He was married a few years ago to a daughter of Jonathan T. Turpen at whose home he has been living ever since. He was a very quiet man and an iudustrious worker, he having worked for Fred Butler last season and was employed for the coming year by thp same gentleman. He%leaves » wife and one child. The funeral took place at Liberty church last Friday aud burial at the cemetery near by. 6. A. B. Encampment. General order No. 11, issued by Department Commander Marsh, announces that the G. A. R. state eucampment will be held in Muncie Wednesday and Thursday, March 27 and 23. Headquarters will be at the Kirby House. Hotel rates ranging from #1 to $2 a day and lodgiugs in private houses will be furnished for 25 cents per night aq4 meals at the same price. Half-fare rates, or one tare tor the round trip, have been secured from all points in the state, good for March 25, 26 and 27 inclusive and return not later than March 29. Those desiring quarters should address J. F. Ross, citij'.pns committee, Monde. It is understood that Muncie is going to show what old-fashioned hospitality means.

Thieves at Work. Last Wednesday night burglars plundered the McCormick drygoods store at Otwell. Something like $300 in goods was secured from the s.ore. It is supposed that the goods were taken across the river north of Otwell into Daviess county. The parties will probably be paught. Sunday morning the saloon of Dad Heath on lower Main street, this city was entered by thieves and a lot of whisky, tobacco pud cigars taken. The officers are on the trail and are likely to take in the gang.; Both of these burglaries are supposed to be the work of home talent. Seriously Kicked by a Stallion. James Anderson, living near jDmtphtowu, was seriously injured ppe day last week by an enraged stallion. He was leading the stallion fropt the stable tp a pasture lot near by when tpe animal broke loose from him kicking him three times and fracturing the left leg. But for being pear the river bauk and over which he was thrown by the infuriated animal he would no doubt have beeu killed. It was a narrow escape. Call at The Democrat office for your job printing.

Wheat Siliailu. An qbuiuI feature in the titualiom in the southwest is the pbenominally light movements of winter wheat say a the Modern Milter. Handlers are slow to admit that the wheat is not in the country to come forward, hoi their conviction* are not born out by the fact and they are sllowiy getting around to the idea that, after ail, there is no increase in sight. Millers can not depend on car-lot arrivals to meet their requirements, and as they have bought sparingly nearly all season, in fact, from hand to mouth, they are at last making np for their oversight by reaching out in every direction for mill supplies, and in some instances ceasing operations for want of grain. Elevator stocks are being depleted because of the inroads made by millers. There is little that is new to be said concerning the growing plant. Dsmago reports continue to arrive but they are scattered in such a manner that the trade is not inclined to give them more than passing attention. Oant Spell the Child. A good way for a parent to keep a childon the road to ruin is to always complain when the teacher has had occasion to administer discipline. The child of such a parent will soon conclude he is too good for reproof, and before the parent is aware of his mistake, his own authority will be defied and by the time the boy is grown, nine cases out of ten the father can take upon himself the credit of having turned loose upon society an animal that respects neither the laws of God nor man. Prisons and almshouses are fed by victims of such mistaken Motions of parental fondness. Fine Printing.

Serious AccldenL William Tislow, living iin Jefferson township, met with quite an accident last Friday, ^aiid which will lay him up for sometime to come.
