It now transpires that a bill introduced by the wily senator McHugh. of Tippecanoe -county apd passed by the legislature contains an innocent looking clause legalizing the Roby den of iniquity. The Senator from Tippecanoe is a “daisy.”—Monticello Democrat ~ A "daisy” sure enough, but the recognized leader of the Democratic side of the Senate, last winter, all the same. The Republicans pointed out his rascally trickery, at the time, but it did no good.

Judge Brown, of the Marion circuit court, has declared the fee and salary law of 3891, unconstitutional, as it was expected would be done. The case will now be taken to the Supreme Court, and there is very little doubt but that the Marion county decision will be affirmed and the law be stricken from the statutes of the state. The people demanded a just and equitable fee and salary bill, but the democratic legislature, which was pledged to give them sucli a law, gave them instead a sham law which they knew to be so defective that it would be overthrown by the courts. The Republicans in the Legislature pointed out the defects of the law, and sought to have them corrected but without avail. Again, at last winter’s Legislature, the Republicans, aided by a few honest Democrats, tried to pass a fee and salary bill that would amend the defects of the law of 1891, but the Democratic majority would not permit it.

With excellent taste and a great deal of force the philosophical contributor to the editorial columns of the Muncie Herald discourses in this strain: “ There is yet much of the spirit of intolerance extant in both political and religious circles. It is certainly no commendable comment on nineteenth century enlightment to have it said that men are abused and traduced because of opinion. Every man has a right to think and act as he believes to be right so long as it does not interfere with the individual rights of others or menace public welfare. Because a man does not and cannot see a question from the same point of view as yourself, does not give you license to abuse or harass him and heap calumny upon him. Your broad minded man is ever ready to accord to every other man freedom of thought and action. It is the narrow man, the man of but one idea, who persecutes an d reviles. It has ever been thus. Not until all men are thus educated and refined up to a higher ideal of hnman right, will intolerance in religion and politics cease."

Farm or Professional Life.

The young men of the farm who are beginning to entertain thoughts of a professional educations with a view to become lawyers or doctors, teachers or preachers, in order to avoid the work of the farm, to wear better clothes, live in finer houses, go into politics and enjoy the bustle and excitement of the big city and the greater world, had better think twice ere they take the first step that •ball wean them from the presence of healthful and independent life. Men who have traveled, who have seen and know the world most and best, wonld like nothing better than to be able to retire from the worry, the incessant work, and the uutiriog energy called into requisition ia any one of the professions named, and indeed in any avocation of life, and go to the farm with its quiet, calm contentment

and health. Let these young men fortify themselves now by devoting time to study,' to think, to observe find experiment and thus post themselves and pave the way for more successful prosecuting the Worklj&Lthe-farm, and they will find themselves better otf as they approach old age than of those who leave the farm for a professional or city life. —Rural World.

HOW DO YOU LIKE IT?

Charley Landis, of ’ the Delphi Journal , in his favorite role of “Old Man on the Corner,” addresses the following very pertinent remarks to_ the Democratic farmers. I want to say a few words to my Democratic farmer friends. How do you like it as far as you have gone? How do you like the price of wool which has fallen from twen-ty-two cents under Ben Harrison to absolutely uothing under Grover Cleveland? How do you like the price of corn which is going down, down? How do you like the price of wheat which is dropping, dropping? How do you like the condition of the banks which are busting, busting? How do you like the # fate of the tin and iron mills and other protected industries which are closing, closing? How do you like it. * * * Last year we had a Republican president and a Republican senate who stood like a stone wall between the farmer and his sheep and the woolly coats they wore upon their backs. You elected a Democratic president, a Democratic senate and a Democratic house, pledged to place wool on the free list and wage “a war of extermination” against protected industries, and “where are you at?” The price of wool has dropped clear out of the bottom of the market, dealers in most places have absolutely refused to take it at any price. The highest price that has been paid the last five days is fifeen cents, while thousand of pounds have been sold for ten cents, some of it for five centß. Why?

Because no one knows what on earth the Democratic congress proposes to do with wool, and wool industries. The future is one of uncertainty. The only hope rests in the Democratic administration absolutely repudiating their promises. If they go ahead and wage "a war of extermination against the protected industries” of the country they will bring on such a panic and such a maelstrom of ruin and bankruptcy in comparison with which the financial distress of ’73 ’57 and ’37 will dwindle into insignificance. The danger signals are now being thrown out and the only question is whether the party in power will heed them. If the ship is sent ahead regardless of the warning, then put on your life preservers and get ready to swim in the teeth of the breakers. It is no theory that confronts us; it is a condition. The old man has been rnnning the machine for thirty years; the boys now have it and propose to run it on new fangled principles, so look out I say now as I said a year ago that the only hope of prosperity, of an escape from bankruptcy, rests in the repudiation of the very promises on which the present administration secured control. Grover Cleveland and his people must stick to . honest money. Grover Cleveland and his people must stand by the farmer and his wool. Grover Cleveland and his people must not surrender to the hungry hawks across the waters the prosperous industries, the well-fed and well-paid laborers, the happy homes that have been encouraged by thirty years of statesmanship and legislative intelligence. There is no foolishness about this question. It is a question that affects the farm, the factory, the pocket-book, the parlor, the dining room, the pantry, peace, happiness, national contentment and prosperity. Mr. Democratic farmer, have you had enough? Has the elimination of your wool market the dropping of wheat, and command pork, the uncertainty of the money market* satisfied you ? If so then let your congressman know it. Tell him to keep hands off, that you have had enough. ' But if you want more of this Democratic medicine, if you want to sail on the waters of uncertainty, of experiment, and ultimately be washed ashore and lauded stark naked, braised and bleeding on the

hard and jagered rocks of bankruptcy and distress, then tell. Grover Cleveland and his people to go ahead and fulfill to the letter the premises laid down in Jse~ Chicago platform.

The Truth About The Great Fair.

We have received from Mr. B. fVHavens, executive-officer of the Indiana Boprtl of World’s FailManagers, a statement of the present condition of the Fair, and of matters connected therewith. The statement is signed by the ~execut-ive-officers of tweaty-nifta stales, and territories, and every word can be relied upon as absolutely correct. The following is the statement: We the Executive Offiers of the States and Territories we respectively represent, deem it our duty to present to the people of the United States the following statement for their information: On the opening of the World’s Fair May Ist, while many of the Exposition Buildings were in an entirely satisfactory condition, exhibits were incomplete and the work of installation had for various re vsons been very much retarded. Since that date, the Exposition authorites have accomplished an immense amount of work in Jackson Park, and the buildings of the great departments are complete. Streets and walks are in perfect condition; exhibits from foreign countries and the several states and territories have been received in large numbers and are practically installed, the pavilions, entrances, booths, etc., are elaborate and beautiful and the visitor finds himself in a bewildering maze of exhibits and surrounded on all sides with a display of surpassing magnificence and beauty. In brief, the world has never seen before a collection approaching it in value, interest and educational features. Forty states and territories have contributed $6,020,850 for the erection of the buildiugs and in aid of exhibitors, and there has been raised for the purpose of the Exposition, exclusive of gate receipts, interest, and the above amount from the States, $26,904,264.55. The conveniences afforded for quick and easy communication from one part of the grounds to another, by the Intramural Railway, electric launches, and gondolas are excellent, invalids and others can be transported through the grounds and buildings in rolling chairs in the most comfortable manner. The Midway Plaisance contains features novel and interesting—a representation of nations of the globe of surpassing interest. We unhesitatingly affirm that the exhibits, the buidings of the Exposition, State, Territorial and Foreign will make a visit to Chicago the event of your life.

The individual exhibits in the various departments from the several states and territories of the United States and Foreign countries are of wonderful interest and value, and illustrate in a remarkable manner, the growth of the arts, sciences and manufactures. Individual exhibitors, at very great expense and sacrifice have placed iu the Exposition Buildings, evidences of industry, skill ana ingenuity, creditable in the highest degree to the artisans, manufacturers and agriculturists of the United States. The reports industriously circulated that extortion of every nature prevails in Chicago and cn s the Fair Grounds we emphatically deny from personal experience. In numerous restaurants in Jackson Park, the prices are no higher than are charged for the same variety and quality of food in other cities of the Union.

Comfortable rooms convenient to the Park can be secured at reasonable rates by the day' or week, with or without board; and board can readily be obtained at rates not excessive. It is the opinion generally expressed by those who have visited the Fair that they were agreeably surprised not only in the completeness, variety and extent of the exhibits but in the reasonable charge for room and board. The educational features of the. Fair and the evidences of wonderful progress made in this country since its discovery are of sufficient importance to incite all to see the Exposition. It is an opportunity never before given to our people and probably never will be again. A single admission fee of fifty cents admits to the Grounds and to all the Exposition Building proper. We have presented fairly and truthfully the condition of affairs at the Exposition.
