THE REPUBLICAN Metal Paper of Jasper County. OtaM tn Bepub lean building on the corner of Washington and Weston Streets. «... ,— — BBUED EVERY TUESDAY I AND FRIDAY BY GEORGE E.

The Republican congressmen from Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina and Missouri held a conference Tuesday night on Representative Crumpacker’s bill reducing congressional representation in the South on accountJof alleged disfranchisement of the negro. It was decided to oppose ,'Crumpacker’s bill and to make a stand for a new federal election law that will make it impossible to disfranchise negroes by educational qualification or otherwise. Their idea strikes us as the right one and far more practicable and ■ equitbale than Mr. Crumpacker’s bill, and besides the latter evidently has no chance on earth of getting his bill through, anyhow.

So eminent an authority as the Scientific American now strongly favors the Panama route for the Isthmian canal, as compared tyith the Nicaraugua route. A summing up of the comparative advantages and disadvantages of the two routes, now that the price of the uncompleted Panama canal has been placed at $40,000,000, shows that, in any common-sense view of the case, the Panama route is preferable In fact about all the argument that is left for the Nicaraugua advocates to advance is that the Panama company is so badly tainted with the enormous stealing and extravagancies of the former De Lessep’s management That is a very childish argument however, as the De Lessep’s company went utterly to pieces years ago, and the present company which now owns and wishes to sell the canal to the United States is, so far as anything that has been shown, or suggested, an honest and business-like organization, which has been doing all that could be done with the meads at their dis-

THURSDAY— Continued.

Rev. C. D. Royse, of Trinity M, E. church will resume his series of Sunday evening address on subjects of present popular interest next Sunday. -His subject then will be “Spiritualism.” Mr. Royse has investigated this subject considerably himself, and has also studied all the latest leading works bearing upon it to be found in some of the largest Chicago libraries. B. M. Donnelly, the photographer, who had charge of the Pavilion gallery, for a year, but which has been in charge of H. F. Parker for some some time, sold the outfit and business yesterday, to Mr. Parker who witl be incontrol henceforth. Mr. Donnelly has gone back to Chicago where his family is located, and will engage in business there probably in the photographic line again. The Kokomo Uniform Rank, K. of P., has decided to enter the world’s contest in California this year. This division is now composed of graybeards. In 1886 it took the first prize in the world’s tourney at Toronto, Canada, and has won numerous prizes in competitive drills. The division is now in drill practice for the coming tournament and hopes to again capture first honors.

When John Renicker went to North Manchester a week or so ago he found the snow so deep he could harder get about, and up at Valporaiso, on Tuesday, there was so much snow that in places the side walks were impassible. In Jasper county, the Italy of northwest Indiana, there has been bare ground practically all winter, and thia last snow only measured about 4 inches, and is fast disappearing under the combined influence of a bright sun and a genial southern breeze.

President Hamilton, of the Tippecanoe Route has written to friends in Newton county that some grading is actually being done cn the east end of the line, and that when spring opens, it will go ahead with vigor, all along the line. Attorney Annabal is also quoted as saying, “there is no truth in the report that the T. & C. T. railroad is dead, but on the contrary says the prospects are bright. He expects trains to be running by next fall, as has been promised from the start. At Valparaiso Wednesday the grand jury brought in new indictments against Fleming, Curtin, and Sowards for the murder of Edward Davidson, whose body was found Dec. 19th. As before stated, their first indictment was mainly on the evidence of one Sprencil a railroad watchman, who sub sequently declared his first eviddence was false, and that Davidson was killed by the cars. The accused men will be tried at Crown Point.
