The Indianapolis Sentinel and the newspapers deriving their information and their inspiration from that sonroe, insist that the reduction of the state debt under the present era of Republican oontrol is due to the application of an annual sinking fund of SSOO, 000 derived from a special levy prescribed by the legislature of 1893. But sinoe the beginning of the present era of Republican control in Indiana the reduction of the state debt has averaged annually nearly a quarter million more than $400,000, and this despite a reduction in the general levy by the Republican legislature of 1895 one-third greater than the amount derived from the sinking fund. Debt reduction and tax reduction have gone hand in hand under the present era of Republian oontrol in Indiana It seems from the extended remarks of Indiana Democratic newspapers that the growth of the state debt during several periods of Democratic oontrol of Indiana’s fiscal affairs, and its decrease under periods of Republican management, is only another manifestation of the same kind of coincidence that left the oountry prosperous under Harrison, brought on adversity under Cleveland and ushered good times in again under McKinley. It may be that Democratic leadership, debt and disaster are only coincidences and not triplets, but they have been keeping steady company so long that the voter who don’t care to take on the trio will probabty prefer not to give any oae of them a chanoe again.

More Personal Observations

Rev. Charles W, Postill, now of Wingate, now attending the conference, is not quite a full Jasper oounty produotr but be eomes very near being: Comes within one of it, we might say, which is the same narrow but safe margin by which most people miss being twins. He was born just Over the J asper oounty line in Wbitepost township, Pulaski oounty. He was brought up in Jasper county however, and in that fruitful seedbed of preachers and teaohers, Gillam township. He graduated from the common schools of Jasper county, taught for a while in our county schools, and last and best of all, he has a Jasper oounty girl for his wife. He graduated at DePauw University in 1895, and was admitted to the conference the same year. He was at Fontanet two years, and has been at Wingate five years, and will probably be returned for another year. There is only one other preacher in this conference who has been sent back to the same appointment more than five years in succession.

Rev. T. F. Drake, of Crown Point, who aots as conference reporter for The Republican, is one of our baok number preachers. But if this sketoh were to stop here, with that last sentence unchanged, we would be up against it, good and plenty. We hasten then to explain that by the term “back number” we mean in this case, a former pastor of the Rensselaer appointment. The usual meaning of the term “back number” will need to be reversed to fit his case as a preacher and worker. He is one of the strong men of the conference and always sent to leading stations, such as Rensselaer, Winamac, Crown Point etc. He is nearly 53 years old but looks and acts as youthful and vigorous as moet men at 10 years younger. He was sent here in 1889, just when Trinity M. E. church wa6 about half built, and through various troubles and dissensions progress had come to a stand-still. He soon straightened buY the tangle and brought the work to a successful termination. He was the last to preach in the old church and* the first to preach in the new. He is hlways very popular with all classes, whereever he is located.

Rev. A. Rodgers is still another conference attendant who is a product of the vintage of Jasper county and of Gillam township, of course. He was born in Morgan oouuty, but lived in Jasper from the time he was about five years old. He graduated from DePauw about 1884, and has been in the ministry ever since. He is now stationed at Newport, the connty seat of Vermillion county, and h,s previously filled numerous other important appointments, such as Pine Village, Lowell, Camden, Clurkshill etc. He is a brother-in-law of our present county treasurer, R. A. Parki* son. Rev. J. A. Maxwell, D. D. tho efficient Conference secretary pastor at Mulberry, is one of the busiest men at Conference. Prof. W. H. Fertich, of Brazil, Ind., is attending the Conference. Dr. Mclntosh a senior of Rash Medioal, who has been assisting some of the pastors in evangelical work, is in attendance and may possibly take work as a supply. Rev. A. G. Yount Pb. D. pastor at Winamac has kindly presided at the piano. f
