Cai pt nter Township Convention. Tl. Republicans of Carpenter Township will meet at Durand Hal], SATURDAY, MAY sth, 1894, at 2 o’clock p. m., for the. purpose of electing d'el&gaTeg" to the Judbcial, Senatorial and Representative conventions; also to nominate a full Township Republican ticket The Judicial and Senatorial convention will be held at Goodland, May Bth; Representative at Rensselaer, May loth. Committee. The proceedings of (the Republican state convention of last week will be found, in full, on one of our inside pages. The receipts of the United' States for the nine months ending I March 30, 1894, show a loss of S7O, 000,000 as compared with the same month of the last fiscal year. The Canadian farmer has no doubt that the tariff is a tax —on him. He has to pay it in order to bring bis products across the line and sell them in the American market. The receipts of the government for the nine months ending March 30, 1894, shows a loss in customs revenue of $53,000,000, being an average of nearly $6,000,000 per month—equal to $500,000 per day. The revenue seems to be reducing itself without the aid of the Wilson bill. The Senatorial and Judicial conventions are both to be held at Goodland next Tuesday May Bth. If any of the townships electing delegates to those two conventions next Saturday, should find it desirable to make the same man a delegate to both conventions, there is nothing to prevent it As the work of one convention will be finished before the other is organi e u
The nearer producer and consumer- are brought together the more the profit tothepr educe r, the less the cost to the consumer, and the less the profit to the middleman.
The outstandinir interest bearing debt of the United States in creased during the first year of Cleveland’s administration, from March Ist 1893, to March 1, 1894, 829,905,6(0, being almost 85,000, 000 per month. The increase now is 810,000,000 per month. Every dollar sent across the sea to purchase the product of foreign manufactured articles takes from our own people'the possibility of giving steady employment to those who throng our shores or patiently wait for a day’s employ meat. If the Pilot editors really wish for a brief but clear, forcible and entirely correct and up-to-date expression of what Republicanism stands for, let them read the Indiana Republican state platform, adopted last week. It may be found on one of the inside pages of this paper.
Jasper county Republicans should not neglect to attend the primary conventions next Saturday afternoon, to elect delegates to the Senatorial, Judicial and Representative conventions. And in Marion and Carpenter townships, and perhaps others, full township tickets will be nominated.
The markets of the world, of which so many glowing pictures have been painted by free traders of the United States, are as nothing when compared to the home market our producing millions find for all of nature’s stores. More than $50,000,000,000 worth of goods, the product of our own country, find a ready sale in our own markets. This is larger than all the foreign trade of the world. Then why should we change this safe, sure, excellent place of finding sale for all we produce for the indefinite one that no Democrat has ever been able to locate ar find?
The voice of Georgia has now become the supreme voice in pen - sion administration, for is not the appeal of all pension matters to Hoke Smith of Atlanta, by the grace of Grover Cleveland secretary of the interior? The local boards are not abolished, but disability—a vital power for his protection—is taken from them by administrative order. And, after all, Geo gia has carried her point. She is surely in the saddle, well illustrating the apt saying that their was a time when the boys were “marching through Georgia,” but now is the time when Georgia is marching through the boys.
Capt. Swigart, of Logansport, has formerly withdrawn from the Congressional race, leaving only Mr. Johnson and Mr. Landis in the field. The situation as summed up by the Logansport Journal is as follows: Johnston. Landis. Carroll county.... 2! Cass “ ... 5 30 Fulton " 21 Jasper “ 12 2 Lake “ ....; 30, Newton P 8 4 Porter “ .23 Pulaski “ 5 5 White •• 18 Totals io4 81 Necessary to a choice, 93. These figures are probably about tight, although both the candidates claim considerably more than is here conceded them. The Landis men, for instance, say that they have several votes in Fulton, and a bigger number in Pulaski than is here given him, also that when it* “comes to the scratch’ Cass county will give him even more than 30. On the other hand, the Johnson men claim several votes in White, more than 5 in Pulaski, and he has nearly always been conceded 13 in this county. Porter and Lake counties have not yet elected their delegates, but they have usually been figured as solid for (Johnson. This, in the case of Lake county, at least, the Landis men are said not to fully admit

VICTORIOUS EVERYWHERE.
THE REPUBLICANS TAKE EVERYTHING- IN SIGHT AT THE CITY ELECTIONS. The city ejections throughout Indiana Tuesday, tell the same storv of overwhelming Republican victories as all previous elections during the last eight m auths. We give a few sample items: Fort Wayne,- always Democratic elects a Republican mayor. Lafayette, usually Democratic, now strongly Ri publican. LaPorte, a Democratic stronghold, everything Republican except marshal and one councilman New Albany a clean sweep, except one councilman. Republicans never controled it before. Same is true of Decatur, where now the Dems only have the marshal. Logansport elects Rep. Mayor overcoming majority of 350 since last election.
Columbus Democratic for years, Reps now take everything. Terra Haute's Rep. majority largest ever known. Nine out of eleven councilmen. Frankfort, Crawfordsville, Goshen, clean Republican sweep. Tipton, Plymouth, Seymour, Columbus, Elwood, Huntington, South Bend, all Democratic last year, now gone Republican. Wabash, Crawfordsville, Connersville, Shelbyville, Muncie, Union City, Winchester, Bedford, Bloomington, Attica, Greencastle, all Republican, with BIG gains. The city of Hammond is completely turned over. It has been badly Democratic heretofore. This list of Republican victories might be indefinitely extended; but the fingers of one hand will count all the Indiana towns that show Democratic gains.

Indiana contributed her thousands of brave soldiers to the war, and no state bears a better record in that respect than it does. In literature it Is rapidly acquiring an enviable place. In war and literature Solomon Yewell, well known as a writer as “Sol,” has won an honorable position. During the late war he was a member of Co. M, 2d. N. Y. Cavalry and of the 13th Indiana Infantry Volunteers. Regarding an important circumstance he writes as follows: “Several of us old veterans here are using Dr. Miles’ Restorative Nervine, Heaty Cure and Nerve and Liver Pills, all of them giving splendid satisfaction. In fact, we have never used remedies that compare with them. Of the Pills we must say they are the best combination of the qualities required in a preparation of their nature we nave ever known. We hare none but words of praise for them. They are the outgrowth of a new principle in medicine, and tone up the system wonderfully. We say to all, try these remedies." —Solomon Yewell, Marlon, Ind., Dec. 5,1882. These remedies are sold by all druggists on a positive guarantee, or sent direct by the Dr. Mlles Medical Co., Elkhart, Ind., on receipt of price, $1 per bottle, six bottles 26, express prepaid.

REMINGTON ITEMS.
The Odd. Fellows gave a supper ana entertainment at their hall Thursday evening. ‘-Under the Mistletoe bough” was given with Mrs. Wolf as Genevra and was well represented. " It was a very select affair, only Odd Fellows and their ladies being permitted to attend. About thirty of the Odd Fellows went to Rensselaer Sunday to attend the funeral of Mr. McColly. Miss Anna Dersehell and her mother have returned to their home in Mich. The entertainment given Friday evening by the Remington Primaries was a- decided success both socially •iiid financially. Tire motion sung by first primary was very much enjoyed by the audience. The Operetta was short but well presented. The f airies were enchant- ( mg in their dainty costumes, while the gt psit-s were ideal gypsies and ; sang their.gay rollicking songs with ■ spirit ami life. The king and his court made an imposing pageant. The solos given by the king and Gypsy Queen were especially pretty as «as the duet by the two little babes. The entire receipts of the evening amounted to over sixty dollars leaving a neat little, balance, of forty four dollars to the credit of the Primaries. The literary society gave a farewell banquet to Mr. Vanatta at Mr. Luckey’s house Friday evening. Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Gleason are visiting Mrs. Gleason’s sister, Mrs. Z. K. Smith. Miss Twonnet Parker has returned to the Medical Institute at Indianapolis for another course of treatment. Her parents accompanied her. Wellington Traugh returned home Friday noon from Oklahoma. We learn from the Educational News that Bert Crowe has been appointed Prof, of Science in the Fort Wayne High schools. We are glad to hear of Bert’s good fortune. Mr. and Mrs. Geo.

Mr. Virley Stevens, a former resident of this place made a short visit here this week. Mr. S. is a very much traveled young man. Mr. John Harmon has had a partial stroke of paralysis and is in a very critical condition. This is the second stroke he has had. Mrs. Holland, who has been an invalid for some time has bad a serious fall. In falling she struck across a chair in such a way as to break one of the bones in her hip, and hurt her head severely. As she seems to have no use of one of her sides she has probably had a slight stroke of paralysis. Mrs. E'iza Sheets has bought Mr. Noland’s new house. Mr. Noland has moved his family to the country.
Mrs. Fannie Tedford died at the home of her parents Mr. and Mrs. J. O. B. McDougte, Wednesday evening April 25th, after only a week’s illness. The services wi re held at the house after which the remains were taken to Logansport for interment by the side of her sister Mrs. Schwerdman. ~Mrs. Tedford’s death leaves her parents childless.

When they return they will bring their little niece with them. Mr. James Z>a has gone to 111., to visit ri latives, and take home her nephew Walter who has been spending the winter with her.

Those Dissatisfied Ones.
Editor Republican : The “Piptes Peeht" of last week says, “dissatisfaction as to the town ticket recently nominated by the Rensselaer Republicans has caused another ticket to be placed in the field under the caption of a citizens ticket.” Well, who are dissatisfied and why ’ariT they dssatisfied? Jas. W. Don tbit was there. C. D. Nowels was there and 5 or 6 other democrats were there. Not enough to entitle them to be cailed a convention. If . those six political kdulamites were all there are in Ren.-.-i ker who are dissatisfied with the Republican ticket they might as well move that the elation be made unanimous. They made up the ticket, those six or seven, and then went out and got enough signers to make the mongrel a legal ticket. Those democrats j made it up of three democrats, two prohibitionists and one populist. , There were two hundred and twenty ; present at the Republican Convention dissatisfied with the present administration, who will certainly turn out and bury the Democratic-Pro-hibition-to-catch-Totes ticket so deep its father James W. could never dig it up.
