"Vicious Republican laws” are the cause of the present trouble, according to our neighbor of the Sentinel, and other democratic authority, equally astute, meaning the McKinley lari if and the silver law, girange character of viciousness those Republican laws must possess, that they never hurt the people until they were about to be repealed by Democrats. The country flourished under them until after the Democrats had gained complete control of the country, last fall. Vicious Republican laws, forsooth!

“Repeal the Sherman law and go home,” is the burden of a good deal of advice to Congress. It would do some good, no doubt,"“if Congress would act on that advice. Not that the Sherman law is hurting the country to any great extent, but the going home, without doing anything else, would be pretty good evidence to the country that the Democrats were getting a little sense into their heads on the tariff question, and were getting sick of their ♦‘war to death on the protected industries of the country.”

Dr. Patton, of Remington, has got a good plum, after all, if a dispatch published some days ago in the Indianapolis News, is correct. It is that of register of a land office in the Oherokee Out-

let, and pays $3,000 a year. The dispatch says Congressman Hammond secured the place for Patton, from which there may be those who will see in this, the carrying out of an understanding arrived at, when the Doctor de- .♦ cided not to run for Congress again. The circumstance is certainly open to that inference.

The Rochester Republican works over a familiar old Democratic, “the tariff is a tax" song, in this fashion:

The farmer risee in the morning from his humble bed that cost him 15 bushels of wheat, drawn on a pair of common overalls costing 3 bushels of wheat, puts on a coarse pair of penitentiary made shoes (by the grace of Indiana democracy) costing 4 bushels of wheat, slaps on his old his old hat that cost 5 bushels of wheat, dons his coat that cost him 10 bushels of wheat. Going to the well he begins watering his stock with a pump that|jcost 50 bushels of wheat. He then goes to the barn and grooms his horses with a comb and brush costing 3 bushels of wheat, harnesses them with a set of harness that cost 60 bushels of wheat. He goes to his breakfast which consits of bread, rye coffee and such other articles as Democratic supremacy can not wholly destroy. The old family bible with its welf* worn leaves which has been in daily use since 1861 now lies untouched, there being nothing for which to offer up thanks. And when he lies down on his humble couch it is to sadly wonder if the Democratic purpose of placing affairs on a “Business Basis” is to be accomplished by closing all the factories of the land, throwing thousands of laborers out of employment, and making the market value of wheat 48 48 cents. Even “Reformers” somehow seem to lose their zeal for reforms, when they find that said reforms, however necessary they be for the public good, are likely to prove injurious to thair own pecuniary or political interests. And this statement, incredible as it may seem, even sometimes applies to some of those wholly unselfish

philanthropists who own stock in the Pilot company. Now for instance, we have it pretty straight* that some of these gentlemen adopted the well-made suggestion of The Republican, last week, that the "Pilot Annex” business needed investigation, and they forth Wftfrufregan to investigate. JBut it would seem from reports that have got out that these noble citizens* fundamental idea of reform, in that particular case, was that grounds must be found for a promising libel suit against The Republican. They evidently very soon found, not what they wanted to find, but a good deal that they did not want to find, and they dropped the investigation like a hot potato. Fie, gentlemen, the interests of society should weigh more with you than personal pelf or power. Cast that mighty beam out of your own eve, before you can hope to wrestle with success with the little mote that dims your neighbor’s optics! See.

To the truth of our statement last week, regarding the scandalous occurrence at the Pilot office, a week before, the Pilot enters no denial, .and in fact, to all intents and purposes, fully admits its truth. The Pilot’s answer, such as it is, was written by the local editor, whose assumption that our article points him out as the guilty party, is entirely gratuitous upon his part. But since he has insisted in taking our publication as a direct accusation of himself, which however it was not, does he not see, what every one else can not fail to see, that the proper way to convince people of his innocence is in hunting down and exposing or otherwise punishing the really guilty ones, —a thing which is easily in his power to do, —and not by making false counter charges against others. As to his assertion that there is no more reason to connect him with the Pilot office affair than there is to hold the editor of this paper responsible for two “like occurrences” which happened in our office in the last four months,— we simply answer that the assertion that two like occurrences, or even one like occurrence, ever happened in our office, is wholly and outrageously false, and known by the people of Rensselaer to be false. The “occurrence” at the Pilot office was a public bagnio, opened in the early hours of the evening, and so openly and so flauntingly kept, that even young boys in large numbers, “got onto it” as the saying is, and were hanging about trying to obtain admission in precedence of older and presumably better paying customers. So openly that the matter was a public scandal, and was “all over town” the next morning. We know that no such “occurrence” ever took place in our office, and the people of Rensselaer know it, too. It is possible that some pair of the night prowling children o£ Belial who are always watching for such opportunities, may have sometime found our office insecurely fastened and sneaked into it, as they are likely to sneak into any unfastened and unoccupied rooms, but we never heard even a rumor of such an occurrence in our office, and in any case, if it did occur, it would not be a like occurrence to a public bagnio by a good deal. However we will gladly give $5 for evidence that will convict any person of having used our office in that manner; and $25 for evidence that will convict any person of using it for a “like occurrence” to that at the Pilot office.

As to the wholly uncalled for and unjustifiable dragging in of the names of Messrs. R. W. Marshall and 0. E. Mills into his reply, we shall say nothing at this time further than to say, what everybody knows to be true, that the statements so far as they reflect upon the reputations of those gentlemen, are wholly false, as is also the statement that those alleged “occurrences” were the cause of Mr. Mills* removal from Mr. Marshall's office.

A Great Demand For Soup.

“I want a ten cent soup bone,” was the announcement made by a gentleman In a city butcher shop one day this week. “You are the tenth man that has asked for a soup bone since I sold the last one this morning,” replied the butcher. “It is a soup bone or nothing, I can’t afford to buy anything else,” and the gentleman walked out. The butcher then stated that the demand for soup bones was unprecedented. “Men who never before thought of asking for a soup bone now call for the article once or twice a week. We formerly had them to throw away. We can’t come any way near sup plying the demand now.” These are the “good old Democratic days” our fathers speak of. Soup? And if the Democratic party will go ahead now and give us the worthless state banks they threaten to bring into life, the money we have will not even buy a soup bone m a respectable butcher shop. How do you like it, anyhow?

The Brookston Reporter gives the rain makers credit for the rain at Chenoa, 111., they got S7OO for, and also attributes to them the credit for the rain at Brookston, the same day. Well, that is only being consistent. If they made the rain at Chenoa that day, they also made the rain at Brookslon, at Rensselaer, Indianapolis, and dozens of other places all over Indiana, and in Illinois and Ohio, and the Lord only knows how many places besides. There are some possible grounds for believing that heavy and extensive cannonading, like that of a great battle, or that which Gen. Dyrenforth fired off in Texas, sometimes precipatates a rain storm, but the idea that a few noxious chemicals, burned in a deserted building, should produce rains over a tract of country half as big as an empire, or over any tract at all, is preposterous in the last degree.

Less attention is paid to the game laws in Indiana than in any other state in the Union. There being no state game warden, market hunters are in clover. The American Field says that it' has reliable information that illegal shipping of game is carried on from San Pierre, Starke county; Wilder’s, Laporte county; Medaryville, Pulaski county, and that a market hunter at Kouts, Porter county who has a cold storage warehouse, shoots all the game he can in that vicinity as soon as it is large enough to sell, and the consequence is that all game is pretty well cleaned up by the time the open season arrives. It is said he has game in storage all the time, and that he shipped eight barrels of prairie chickens to Chicago in one week last year. .What Indiana needs is a state game protective association. i I have made arrangements for plenty of money to loan, on farms in sums of five hundred dollars, or any amount above that, at 6 per cent, annual interest, and a small commission. Money may be obtained for five years or longer if desired.
