NOTICE OF ELECTION. NOTICE is hereby given that on the flrst Monday of May A. 1). nn election will be held in and for the town'of KensselHor in the county ot Jasper and Stat? of Indiana. The place ot' voting at said election will be at the Sheriff’s office at the Court House, the same being a central-"ty-located place in said town. Said election "’ill be held for the purpose of electing- t.bn following of-., icers of said town, to-wit: (hie Trustee for the hirst District: < >ne Trustee for the Second District; One Clerk; One Marshal; One Trcfunrcr. ; —Sx In witness whereof I have 7 SEAL set my hand and asthe corporate seal of said town, at my oilice, this 17th day of April A. D. IWT - WILLIAM NV. WATSON, Clerk of the town of Rensselaer.

The republicans of Marion township arc requested to ineet at the Court House, Monday, April 21st at 7:30 p. in. to organize a Republican club. The new management, of the lx, N. A. A* C. meant business when they said that the' road should be put. in good shape, forthwith. Four construction train?, each running’ large forces -of hands' are now at work in different places on the two of the road. One train has been working in the vicinity of Rensselaer for some time. At a meeting of ministers and Sunday school teachers and workers held at the Baptist church last Monday evening, arrangements • were perfect for holding a county Sunday school convention. It will be held at the Baptist church, in this place on April 2Htli and 30th. The programme for ‘the convention appears in this issue of The Republican. The State Republican convenlion for choosmg four delegates, for the state at large, to the National convention," meets at Tnctianapolis tb-rlay. Messi's. M. F. Chilcote, S. C. Maxwell and I. D. Dunn are the duly elected delegates from Jasper county. Mr. Chilcote started for the capital yesterday, and the others will probably also attend the convention. ■ The Democratic Sentinel actually has the gall to claim John R. Gray, trustee of Wheatfield, and Frank Welsh, trustee of Jordan, is dclnbcrats, and yet in the* very »gives Mr. Welsh as a Greenback com.it tee hum, for Jordan township, ind that gentleman himselL pro-* i hums his .will illness to go be’’ure any court in the county and :u take oath that he is a genuine :.ud consistent Greenbnckei.- And as for Mr. Gray he was elected an alternate delegate to the Greenback statu convention, at the Greenback convention in February and his name published r-s -uclr, both in this paper and in the sentinel. Move than that, we have the woid of prominent GreenLaekers for ihc fact that he has attended’and taken part in both or of the county late Greenback conventions of this y< ar. So many and so piominem ,liav< been the instances in Jaspei .bounty of Democrats seeking rof♦ice under the guise of Green Lackers that the Sentinel perhaps thinks 'that you only need to Scratch a Grueubacker ( where he itches—for oflDe) and you will find a democrat; - but there are really men of principle among the Jasper county green backers and he have uo doubt that Messrs. Welsh and Gray are of tout numher.. » . .

SCOOPING AND GETTING SCOOPED.

We Lose the Convention but get llir Delegate. The Congressional District convention at Logansport last Thursday was largely attended by the solid republicans of the district. Rensselaer dill not get the nominating convention, but upon our able townsman, S. P. Thompson was conferred the high honor of a selection as one of the two delegates to represent the district at the National convention, which was honor enough for Jasper county, for one day. Mr. ThomiJstjii was the first delegate nominated-and~"his elec- i tion was good naturally contested by Hon. M. L. De Motte, who made a happy (speech, referring’to his defeat as giving the republicans an opportunity to choose a candidate who can and will by elected. Mr. DeMoite has shown that he will bo true to the party even though a misguided few, from motives of personal malice/ defeated him in 1882. The nominating convention will be held at Monticello, on Thursday, June 26th. 7 v;,.. >. \V. 1L >ll mi n was c hox 1 n for the secoll<l national delegate, and U. Z. Wiley and G. F. Griffin were selected for alternates. According to the Indianapolis Journal Mr. Thompson has no presidential preferences but Mr. Holman and both the alternates are for Blaine and Lincoln. A vote on presidental preferences showed that a majority of the convention favored Blaine for president, with merely scattering votes for other candidates. For vice-president the choice for Robert Lincoln was unanimous. .1. M. Watts, of Delphi, was reelected member of the state central committee.

A Day Well Spent.

Arbor Day in Rensselaer was observed in an entirely satisfactory manner. „In the afternoon all the schools, together with a large number of spectators from the town, met before the school house and quite an extended literary and musical programme was gone through with: “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” was sang by the entire school. The Rev. T. C. Webster made a prayer after which the presi lent of the day, M. F. Chilcote Esq., made a few appropriate remarks. The school then sang “The Swjjet Bye and Bye” and at the same time wo beautiful trees were planted in the side of the street directly in front of the building. One of the trees was dedicated to the memory of the puet Longfellow and the other to that of Harriet Beecher Stowe. Well written essays of dedication were then • read, one for Mrs. Stowe by Nellie Kelley and one for Longfellow by Charlie Spitler. Recitations by Fannie Clark and Rosa Eaker, songs by Ora Duvall, the 2nd Intermediate, and volunteer speeches by Mrs. R. S. Dwiggius and Revs. M. C. Miner and T. C. Webster closed the literary exercises of the day. Some forty of fifty line maple, ash 1 , and elm trees were Turnished by tl\e trusti < s and the janitor and assistants during the afternoon.

AYER’S Cherry Pectoral. No other complaints are so insidious in their attack as those affecting the throat and lungs: none so trifled with by the majority of suffer•rs. Ths ordinary cough or cold, resulting jarhaps_froui_a_ trifling :or .unconscious nx. posure, is often but the beginning of a fatal sickness. Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral has well proven its efficacy in a forty years’ fight with throat and lung diseases, and should be taken in all eases xvitiiont delay. A Terrible Cougli Cured. “In 15571 took a severe cold, which affected my lungs. T had a terrible cough, and passed night after night without sleep. The doctors gave-me up. 1 tried AW# toral, which relieved my lungs, induced sleep, and afforded mo the rest necessary for the recovery of my strength. By the continued use of the Pectoral a permanent cure was effected. lam now 62 years old, hale and hearty, and am satisfied your Cherry Pectoral saved me. Horace FAiiiBROTHER.” Rockingham, Vt., July 15,1862. • Croup.— A Mother’s Trit..,-, “While in the country last winter m. ~vt' boy. three years old, was taken ill with croup; it seemed as if ho would die from strangulation. One of the family suggested the use of AVer’s Cherry Pkctobal, a bottle of which was always kept in the house. This was tried in small and frequent doses, and to our delight in less than half an hour the little patient was breathing easily. The doctor said that the Ciiekkv Pectoral had •avedTnv darling’s life. Can you wonder at our gratitude? Sincerely yours, Nits. Emma Gedney.” 159 West 128th St., New York, Nay 16, lft'2. “I have used Ayer's Cherry Pectoral In my family for several year. 4 , wd r' o v °t hesitate to pronounce it the most effectual remedy for coughs and colds we have ever tried. A..i. Crake.” Lake Crystal, Minn., March 13,1552. “J suffered for'eight years from Bronchitis, and After trying many remedies with no success, 1 Was cured by the use es Avr.n’s ChkrPectoral. ’ Joseph Waedes.” Byhalia, Miss., April 5,1882. ■’ 1 cannot say enough in. praise of A yer’s CnKIIKY Pectoral, believing as I do that bat for its use I should long sincehave died fyom lung troubles I'-'.

No case of an affection of the throat or hmgs exists which cannot be greatly reheyesL by the use of Ayf.r'3 Cherry Pectoral, and it will -oftmys cure hen the disease is not already beyond the control of nieihciue. i'ReEaKed by Dr. J.
