• ‘ . . h—)*.- 4 Give women equal .pqwer with men in public affair and they "will regenerate the rice. General Logan’s -boom for the presidency in 1888, is already assuming large proportions. This neck of woods is full of original Logan men. The Rochester Sentinel announces that its day of issue will be changed from Saturday to M'eddesday, on the third week in J fine. The Sentinel has been issued on Saturday for more than thirteen years, '-J '■. ■ ■ > ..t. Miss Cleveland’s noble, womanly words in defense of women, and against the use of liquors, ought to. find a warm response,an the heart of every true friend of suffering humanity. She sweeps away the shallow, sophistical and pharsaical arguments of Dr. Crosby, and all others of his short sighted tribe, in a masterly manner. It has been suggested that it would be a good thing to induce the President to change places with his sister, and allow her to conduct the administration. We believe her to be infinitely the' more able and large minded of the two. •We received last week, but too late for* attention at that time, a communication from the author of one of the recently published artides reflating to the “non-parti-zan” democrats of Remington, and their ways that are dark and their tricks tlipt are not altogether vain. Tlie communication was written for the purpose of explaining that the previous articles were not intended to cast any reflections upon either the official or personal integrity of Mr. Mclntire, the editor of the Remington News. We really see no reason for publishing the communication. After the closest scrutiny of the above mentioned articles, we fail to find anything in them which impugns Mr. Me lutire’s character, either official or personal. His integrity, both as a man and as an official, we believe to be above censure; and nothing could be further from our indentions than to permit them to be called in question, through the colunfns of this paper. It is only upon the pretended “non-partizan’’ political trickery of the democracy of Remington, of which Mr. Me 1 tire is the mouth piece, thatSve wish to to make war. By means of their subtle and persistent methods, which have already been clearly exposed, in The Republican, they have succeeded in keeping control of the town of Retniiigton, for years, and have done, much to disorganize, and lead to disaster, the Republican party of the county. To their machinr.tions is largely due the defeat of several Republican county candidates, at various times m the past, and the -election, in T-SS'IT of a man to the State who, in the last session of the General Assembly, casf the vote of this strongly Republican and patriotic district for the 'demagogic Copperhead, Daniel W. Voorhees’; and who, a few weeks later, in spite of his own convictions of right and justice, gave his vote for the infamous disfranchising apportionment bills. It is right aipl .proper that the Republicans of Remington ; anti Carpenter township s Louldbe warned of |he methods which have proved so injurious to the party of their Mioice; and" we believe The Republican has clone no more than Hb dulyin the part it has lately Weltis tfie matter < 1

Monon All Torn Up!

A Big Scandal for a Littlifi Burg. Most of the people of RefisW*'laer have already heard some of .the rumors regarding the social scandalwhicb lately came to light in' Monon. All of the pt-incpal parties concerned in >the matter,*’are well known in Rensselaer, and a part of them'were former residents of this .place. These facts give the affair so much interest here that we make room for the following rather long and somewhat ovei -eloquent account, from the last issue of the Monon lAspaUh; , For some time past Dame Rumor has had it that there were unlawful relations existing between a well known married man, GeQ, W. Irnes, baggagemaster of the L. N. A. & G. at this place, and Mrs. Maggie Denton, wife of Thos. J. Denton, the well known liveryman and blacksmith, which culminated’.Friday night in the admission by Mr. lines to Wm. Vanarsdale, a cousin of Mrs. Dentons, and a member of the family, that his relations were improper with the lady mentioned, and the lady’s admission on Suiiday o‘s her own guilt and disgrace to our reporter who interviewed her.. No matter how we may have compared in certain respects with our sister towns, no matter wnat may have been our short-comings and misfortunes, it has been conceded heretofore that our community was the home ot domestic virtues; and that love, honor, and conjugap. fidelity were the reigning deities of every household. • From the testimony of the woman herself, this plan’s villiany was of no common dye. For six year£ has be pursued her, and not till within the last six months has" she yielded to his persuasions. The commencement of the flirtation which finally led to her ruin was begun at the skating rink the early part of last winter. Mr . and Mrs. Denton were married throe years ago last January, and in ; that union we saw “Twa souls with but a single thought, Two hearts that beat as one”. That Union was the gift of Heaven, the charms of earth; the joy of the present and the beautiful promises of the future; but the tender ties that bound this household in loved and Joying union, were torn asunder by this Heartless, prayerless, remorseless demon, who with his proflei-ed friendship became the herald of Hell in the paradise of innocence. , It has been intimated that this Lathario’s friends, w r hat few he has, would palliate his conduct on account of the levity of his victim. Gracious God! is it possible that the warmth* or coolness of a wife's love is to be measured by the thermometer of such a knave’s vanity andJaaseness, and above all a. married man, in order that he may judge, the propriety of his move upon the fortifications of the home circle? We know that crime in its commission is tremulous, buj; in its exposure becomes arrogant and audacious, and that it will.turn Upon the justice that pursues it and seek to throttle it with anything at its command. This case presents no exception to the rule. After hues’ crime, guilt and disgrace was no longer a secret and had become known, he armed himself with two revolvers and paraded the streets and announced that he was prepared to"take the life of the husband and father who presumed to protest against so unnatural a crime. Such conduct should have been resented by all law-abiding and home-loving citizens. . Mr. Denton's conduct under the trying circumstances has shown that he is more than ordinary men, that his deportment has been such that has won for him the admiration aud sympathy of the entire community. Mrs. Denton left Sunday for her mother's home near Marlboiough.] Mrs. Imes, who has lived here for a number of years, whom to know her was to love her, has the sympathy of the entire communit} 7 in her troubles. She is one of the most estimable ladies in our town, whom not even the breath of suspicion ever breathed aught against. She was a’ loving. mother, a kind and dutiful companion, and" deserved better than she received at the hands of her unfaithful husband. If there be those in the community who now stand on the precipice of indecision, let the sad recital of the foregoing facts be tfcAhem a warning.

Rather Sarcastic.

Johnson’s New Universal Cyclopaedia.

“In kha course of my business, I visited the Indiana State Normal School at Terre Haute, and observing in the reference library all the of any, note, 1 asked President Brown: ‘which* of these Cyclopaedias cto you find test.?’ Unhesitatingly, he replied, •Johnson’s? In a few Hays after this incident, 1 warin th e High School at Frankfort; and observing, sitni-’ larly, all the Cyc’opaedias, 1 asked the Spme question of Professors Warfel, TSpcipal of the High School, and R. G. Boope Su.pt. In the same manner their answer came—‘Johnson’s.’ Whilst du|.»4a the saine'trip I was in Chicago, and when in the store of the Colegrpve Book Co., 1 made inquiry of >my pl I friend, .lames I Colegrove-—a gentleman whose knowledge ot books is equal, if not superior, to that of any other person I have eyer known. His , eply was; “I’ll tell you what. Mr. Poole (Librarian of Chicago Public Library) says, lie says, Johnson’s, without doubt is the best,’ and I fully agree in that opinion.” Mr. Golegrove then gave me many reasons why it is the best. , From other respectablc sources 1 received the same unYaryieg.. unhesitating opinion—“JohnsonJs is the best,’ About this time I inet the General Manager for Indiana, applied for and obtained the agency Jpr Indianapolis, and now I invite your attention to this great work, believing that in so doing, 1 am conferring upon you a favor for .which—you will be grateful. A- few of the reasons why it is superior, briefly stated are: 1. It was planned by Horace Greeley who assisted in its preparation (o the close of his life. It iias.B7 -editors,; 2,ot)o z ;coun; tributors, 7,00 V large octavo pages, and treats 20,000 more subjects than Appletons’ American Cyclopaedia does. 2. It contains S,OOO iiEAbING articles, each signed by one of the editors or contributors, thus guaranteeing accuracy and authority. This literary work alone cost $150,0003. In Biography, it is superior, being a most complete biographical dictionary. Under the letter A it evuturhs the 'tnogrnphv of 532 American.-, whilst the American . Cycloyaedia gives only 238, The same proportion holds’ good throughout. J’.iil. 1 contains the biographies of 1,800 noted persons, amonst our own citizens notice Oliver P. Morton, James 0. Williams, S'chuyler Colfax, David Wallace- Prof. Daniel Kirkwood, and many others. 4. Under the first five letters of the alphabet it treats of 8,872 more subjects than the American, and in all,. 20,000 more, notceunfmg Atnerican GccgraphicM articais of three linos or less, as r\one of these, numerous and important as they may be, appear in the American. 5. In Geogranlry it is remarkably .full and contains many excellent reaps—all prepared, eilher by Prof. Arno! d Guyot, or under his supervision. 6. Astronomy, by Prof’s Young, Alevander, Watson, Proctor, Newcomb, and "oUiUfsf Gray;- Law/ by thee. W. Dwight;-Chemistry, by Prof. Chandler; Fine Arts, by Rev. O. B. Froth-, ingliam and Clarence Cook: Mqtiicine, by Dr. Willaid Parker, and numerous other, .scientific topics—each by a master in his department—are found i n this work,. '■ 7. Religion and Creeds are fully treated For instance, we find Calvinism by Dr. A, .A. Hoge, and. Arniinianism by Dr. D, D,. Whedon. . . 8. Great specialists treat controverted subjects. Examples: Darwinism, by Dr. E. L. Y'onmanspCritlcisms on the same, by Prof. J, 11, Seelye; Evolution, by Dr- Henry Hart shot Protection, by R. E. TKompsony Free tra<!e, by Hon. David E. Wells, etcTESTIMONIALS. Inuiaxa State Normal School, 1 Terre Haute, Ind. March 18*, 1884. “Johnson’s Universal Clyclopaedia has been in use in this Institution ever since its publication. AVe have several sets ot other Cyclopaedias, both English and American, andof Johnson’s. We niake.niyre use\of Johnson’s than any other, apd probably more than all others. It is a ver convenient refeTehce book, because of the compactness of its matter. It contains what the student, wants most- to know,’ and is free from useless matter in every department'. We consider it an invaluable aid to those pursuing a course in this institution. GEO. P BROWN: President. ■ Tur Colegrove: Book-Co., 135 Wabash Avenue, Chicago, May 1884. Hiram Hadley—Dear Friend, I decidedly preftrJohnson’s to any other Cyclopaedia. The Brittnnic is preferable for some purpose’s, but formll ordinary uses, Johnson’s will give more accurate informal tion of such a character as is wanted by the great majority of those who have occasion th use Encyclopaedias then any other. I may say that I have frequently heard Dr. Poole of the Chicago Public Library express his preference for Johnson’s. Truly Yours, JAMES COLEGROVE. Office Superintendent City Schools Frankfort, Ind., April 22, 1884. 4 An Unabridged Dictionary is a library: . a good Cyclopaedia is a people’s college. The timehaa passed when»-the public e.n . afford to be ignorant of jhe thousand general facts, knowledge as which years of schooling, on the one hand, and books of j reference on the other can supply. To a family, a habit of using, good reference books is itself a liberal' education. To a school’ Encyclopaedias have become a necessary aS desks and blackboards. In the Frankfort schools there are nine sets of such—nearly seventy volumes —and 1 have pay hesitation in commending Johnson’s as being for all purposes, ■ regardless of price or size, the best, and the most frequently consulted, of alb Families need he Encyclopaedia to supplement the newspaper; schools need it to supplement the teacher and tile text book- A Cyclopaedia botighlils money well invested.
