I think he is too it, and good, and noble for that, -tfaere be no mistake, and he did give utterance to such an ; expression, then we have upping a broken idol, "whom we have loved and elevated to the highest fame and glory, is not previous gifts that have :red upon him. ie and honest man will say democratic party, which :nts more than half the people (is great country of ours, is made ' fools and traitors.

You can whip a dog and make him love you, but you can’t change a man’s belief and get him to think as you do, by calling him hard names. On® Who Relieves injustice. Pheasants for Indiana. Fish and Game Commissioner Z. T. Sweeney is preparing to stock the state with Chinese pheasants. As a beginning be has purchased 100 pairs from a pheasantry near Cincinnati, and these sill be distributed in fifty Indiana counties. Domestic hens are to be employed in hatching eggs of these pheasants, for whose protection during the w'nter particular care is to be taken. *>ext year the state will make more extensive purchases. Mr. Sweeney says these birds are as hardy as quail and he expects in a few years to make Indiana a great pheasant state. Indianapolis News. The Indianapolis News is an afternoon, eight column, illustrated paper,, printing from ten to sixteen pages, averaging twelve pages daily, which makes ninety-six columns a day for ten cents a week. The next best Indiana dailies contain fifty-six columns. The News gives almost fifty per cent more for fifty per cent less. It has the best equipped newspaper plant in the state and the largest force of news gatherers and editorial writers. Its sole business is to print a daily newspaper that will stand the critical examination of the most exacting readers. Modern apparatus for tyj>e-setting, stereotyping, etching and printing are employed. The News has a special correspondent in every county seat and town of importance in the state, and correspondents in the large news centers of the Un ited States. ... The city council should employ some i one to clean off the street crossings, j They have been in a very bad condi-1 tion for several days. Next year the I citizens should elect officers that will keep the crossings clean. This Concerns You. For 1 can tell by the way you walk,' you have indigestion.
