Maine, Vermont and Oregon’s pluralities were large enough to take these States out of the “doubtful” column. The vein of apology in which Bryan is supported by Olney Hid, Cochran and Sckurz is a curiosity f of the campaign, Four years of a Republican administration have made hives of industry out of more than 350.000 haunts of idleness aud soup-houses. The funeralof Mrs. Stacey English was held Sunday forenoon, at the residence in Hanging Grove by Rev. D. L. Clnvington, pastor of Barkley M. E. circuit. It was very largely attended. Interment was made in Weston cemetery at this place. Already the census man has found over 528,000 manufacturing establishments, as against 822,638 in 1890. This looks as though the trusts were not crushing out individual enterprise at such a great rate. The most remarkable significance in Mr. Bryan’s letter of acceptance to the Democrats, is his silence upon everything and every subject in which American workingmen as a class have'an interest.

The place that the different tickets will occupy <">n the'state ballots this year lias not yet been decided, except the Democratic and Republican, which are fixed by law, requiring that the Democratic ticket shall be in the first column on the left hand side, and the Republican in the second column. The parties that have sprung up since the law was passed depend on the election board for their position on the ballots. One may be a little surprised at the confidence displayed by intelligent men everywhere regarding the probable success of the Republicans this fall. It is to'be regretted that this confidence tends to apathy, but intelligent people cannot conceive how business men, farmers, mechanics, and in fact all citizens who are enjoying such a full measure of prosperity can vote to overturn that prosperity. And while this is inconceivable, it cannot be impressed too often upon the minds of those very persons who are enjoying the prosperity which is the fruit of Republican rule, that they must see to it in the November elections that their votes are cast and counted in order to continue the blessings which are now being enjoyed.

ADDITIONAL LOCALS -Mon. Dr. A. L. Berkley has gone to Presbyterian hospital, Chicago, and a notice on his door states lie will return about Nov. 18th. Oct. 18th, is the date intended, however. The three year old daughter of A. N. Bailey was poisoned last Saturday afternoon, by eating night shade it was thought. D 8. C. Johnson was quickly summoned and an emetic given, and the child is probably how out of danger. Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Parks and sons left this morning on the 9:55 train for Leland 111., called by the death of his uncle John W. Parks. Thomas Parks and son Burley of Remington went on the 7:31 train.

Monticello Republican.—Jacob Dluzak, who was convicted of stealing corn and fined SI.OO and 10 days in jail, having been refused a new trial, is serving his sentence. If he was guilty, the sentence given by the jury is a worse miscarriage of justice than the theft of the corn if innocent he should have his fine and sentence remitted.

Francesville has another bad scandal. Mrs. Almeuda Miller of near Lakeside left her husband and three children, on Aug. 9th, ostensibly to visit a sister in Ohio. About Sept. Ist, R. C. McCoy, a Francesville druggist, also disappeared, leaving a wife and four grown children, and a good business. It has now been learned that the two met by appointment, at Cleveland, end later, for fear of arrest, went to Canada. _ _

The temperature reached 90 degrees in the shade last Saturday, for the fourth successive day, and one day, Thursday, it was 92. The Chicago papers stated that 85 degrees was the highest previous recorded October temperature, in that city. The change to colder Saturday flight was sudden ana decisive, and Sunday the highest temperature was 70 degrees. Uncle Bill Castor and wife, of Sheldon 111., are visiting their son Gr. W. Castor, in Milroy tp., and were in town today, doing some shopping. Uncle Bill though no longer a resident of Jasper county, was fitted out with a Fre-mont-McKinley button, this morning, he having voted for Fremont in 1850 and intending to vote for McKinley in 1900. Sheldon was visited with a $30,000 fire on last Thursday night. The fire was discovered in the basement of J. L. Peacock’s drug store 1 and owing to the paints and oils I the fire company were unable to

stop it and the brick block occupied by Peacock, Butler Bros., Oris Hard, Western Uniop Telegraph Go., and Sheldon Band and Republican Club burned. As usual the pump wds out of repair and standpipe only lmlf full of water.—Good land Herald.
