We take the following from the Winamac Democrat Journal: “Capt. J. M. Wasson, of Rensselaer, was defeated for the nomination of county clerk in the Republican convention of last week. And to still further humiliate the old veteran the convention again deliberately turned the Captain, down for county commissioner, the convention nominating another candidate for that office. And that's the way the Republicans of Jasper county show their love (?) for the old soldier.” B. F. Ferguson, the hustling real estate and loan agent, is prepared to make farm loans at as low rate of interest as anybody else, and can secure you a loan in much less time. Don't fail to call and see him. He will write applications in Jasper, Newton, White and Pulaski counties. He solicits correspondence from persons desiring to make loans on their farms. G. G. Brown and Miss Kittie Timmons were married at the home of the bride’s parents in Jordan township, on last Tuesday. Rev. B. F. Ferguson performed the ceremouy in his usual good style. The young couple are well known residents of Jordan township, and have the good wishes of all their trie ..Is. T>.o farmers at Anderson had a dispute in settling the cost of a fence damaged by a son of one of the men, while “breaking” a colt, and up to date lawyers' fees and court costs amount to 8600. The case is not yet settled. There is little doubt but .what the fruit crop for this year have been nipped in the bud. Reports from various parts of the country show that the recent cold snap did a great deal of damage. B. F. Ferguson is agent for the Cunard Mail Line of Steamers. This is the oldest and most reliable route between New York, Liverpool and all principal points east. 41-3 t ' The L. N.

There is no complaint to be heard from anyone against the efficient work of Mr. Rhoades. He was competetent, obliging and fully understood the responsibilities of the position, and has discharged his duties with a credit to himself and his many friends. We hope as much for Mr. Henan.

If reports are true, . the lecture by A. W. Conner, on the “Serio-Comic Side of a Preacher’s Life,” at the opera house, April 10th, promises to be a rare treat.

Of Mr. Conner, the Eaton Register says: “If there is anything in the saying, ‘laugh and grow fat,’ all who hear Mr. Conner will increase their Avordupois.” A.
