A meeting to organize the opposition to the Iroquois ditch was held at the Center school house, Union tp., Tuesday night. Particulars of the meeting have not been received but it was no doubt a very large and very earnest one, for the feeling against the ditch, as projected and assessed, is very strong in Union, and “in Union there is strength.” But the fesling m Union tp., is no exception to the general rule. “There is a kick coming” from all along the line. The people along the Pinkamink are especially hostile, while those in Marion and Newton townships are no bttter pleased. Even a large majority of the petitioners, we are reliably informed, are thoroughly dissatisfied and anxious to find a place to let go. Bill Green, brother of the late unlamented Amer Green, is reported dying in the Michigan City prison. Bill was sent up for life for killing Enos Brumbaugh at a picnic at Young America, July 16, 1881. He escaped after the murder, but he and his brother Amer were captured in Texas in 1887. The lynching of Amer Green for the killing of Luella Mabbett will be well remembered h ere, especially as the full story of the running down and arrest of the brothers, by Buck Stanley, of Logansport, was told here once, in a public lecture, by Mr. Stanley himself. Also the, story of the lynching of Amer, not the least interesting feature of the tale, being the incident of how that clever young hustler, Charley Landis, got out an extra edition of j his paper, ahead pf everybody else,' and selling them in all neighboring towns,, and thus making JBOQ clear money, out of the one issue.
