People generally, of all parties are well satisfied with the Australian voting system, and it is safe to stay that the new method has come to say, although some few amendments and changes could be made very advantageously- Thanks to the great efforts that had been made by both parties to instruct the voters in the new way, very few mistakes were made, in comparison with what might have been expected. Home considerable number of voters, in different parts of the county, refused to vote at all because of dislike of the new-way, while Some others lost their votes or portions thereof through failure to comply with the instructions. In the south precinct of Marion tp., for instance two or three were put in without a mark of any kind upon them. Li quite a number of eases, voters stamped the square at the left of the hightest name on the ticket when they ought to-have stamped the square by tLo title to make it count. The New Webster. —Webster’s Intel natioual Dictionary is tbe book wick is destined to go into every library, every public, school, every household where American literature is received and where - the English language is studied. The publishers have spent more than a quarter of a million dollars in bringing this work out in its unabridged, revised, enlarged and authentic form. It now takes the name “International,” and this is intended to emphasize the fact that the language of the mother country now encircles the globe. Every page has been treated as if tbe book were now published for the first time. The claim of the publishers is that it retains that excellence in definaticn which has made Webster the safe and familiar authority, to which judges, journalist, scholar, artisan and man of business refer, and that in etymology, pronunciation, citations and pictorial illustrations it carries to greater perfection the merits of its predecessors. We believe that it abundantly justifies these modest claims, and that, as a comprehensive popular dictionary, it is likely to retain the pre-eminence which has long been held by “Webster’s Unabridged.” No dictionary can be final, but for the next 25 years * the “International Dictionary” must be accepted as the best work of its kind in tbe English language.—Boston Herald, Sept. 28, 1890. St. George, of Merry Eogl&nd. destroyed the tiery dragon, but the Am ericas champion Carbolisalve conquers St. Anthony's Sire, chilblains, frost bites, cuts, woends and itching and irritating skin diseases.

And Also all the Local District Ticket Except Congressman. The election has resulted in a democratic land-slide of propor* tions which rival that of 1882. In congress the Democrats will have a majority in the house of not less than 100, Such reliable Republican states as Wisconsin, lowa, Michigan, Kansas and Pennsylvania have been lost. In Indiana the Democratic majority will reach 15,000, perhaps more. In the Tenth district Mr. Owen is defeated by about 600 votes. Only two Republican. Congressmen are elected in the state. E. P. Hammond. Republican candidate for Judge and J. T. Brown, Republican candidate for Prosecutor in this circuit, are elected by majorities of about 800. Gilman for state senator has about the same majority, and | Parker for Representative from [•Jasper and Newton has about 600 majority. The Republican majority on the state ticket in the county is 320. Owen’s majority in the county is 127. Hammond's majority In county, 341. Brown’s majority in county 307. Gilman’s majority in county, 307. Parker’s majority, in the county 288. Coover’s majority for clerk, over Harrington, Dem, and Peop., 169. For Auditor, Murray’s plurality over Bates, 258. For Tfeasurer, Hemphill’s majority over Nichols,'324. For Sheriff, Blue’s majority over Vending, democratic and peoples ticket, 176. For Surveyor, Thrawl’s majority over Gant, democratic and people’s ticket, 198. For Commissioner, first district, Queriy’s majority over Stemble, 163. , For Commissioner, third district. Tabor’s majority over Green, 178. These majorities are nearly correct, although the official canvass of the vote, now in progress, may change a few of them to a limited extent; but will not effect the result. The total vote cast by the Prohibition and Peoples’ parties can not be given until after .the official canvass. Full tabulated returns will be published next week.
