KKRK HAUTE, IND., OCT 13, 18W

Thk pleasant nmile that adorns the fac^ of the average doctor nowadays, is (asily accounted for. The football season is on »gafn.

Now it is said that Congressman Breok enridge is to be a candidate for Sfnator before the Kentucky legislature. If there is any place on earth where he couid be buried deeper than at present it is in the Senate of tba United States.

THIS is harvest time for the man who .nts to change his politics and thereby get some cheap notoriety as having been "prominent in the councils of his party for many years." As a rule the only prominence be attains is at the time he changes.

IT begius to look as if this State is going to have a time with smallpox the coming winter. It has broken out In a severe form iu the northern part of the State, and is so prevalent that the local authorities are unable to handle it, and luve appealed to the state authorities for assistance.

ONE of the last of the war governors, Andrew G. Curtin, of Pennsylvania, d'ed on Suuday, in bis eightieth year. In the times that tried men's souls, he was foremost 'n furnishing troops for the suppression of the rebellion, and for his efforts in behalf of the men in the fluid he was known as the "soldiers friends."

IT is to be hoped that Justice Harlan will not be dnerted by the idle talk of those who are proposing that he be nominated for president because of his de cision in the Jenkins injunction case. H" is an able jurist and ought not to be spoiled by being mixed in politica. It is not always a serious loss to the bench when a judg^ becomes a seeker after political office, but with Justice Harlan it would.

The wonderful hold baseball has on the American people is shown by the attendance at the New York Baltimore games to decide the ownership of a cup ottered to the teams standing first and second in the National League race. Thirty-two thousand persons paid fifty cents each to s»« two games in New York last Saturday and Monday, realiz ing a small fortune to the players of the winning team, men who are paid larger salaries for less work than any set of men whose business it is to furnish amusements tor the public

Thk civil service) commissioners are having a time with the solicitors of campaign funds. They report that more assessments are being made, and greater troubled caused, than during a presidential year, and they are going after offenders with a sharp stick, The truth about it is that campaign managers are having a harder time this year than ever before to get the necessary "oil" to grease the political machinery. The usual contributors to the funds are hard up, and the office holders must needs be looked to cover the deficiency. It requires mouey to run a "hurrah" campaign and the lack of it explains the lacK of demonstrations this year.

Thk Populists have made another notable addition their ranks in the person of Judge Lyman Trumbull, of Illinois He has tried the other two parties, having been in turn a R«publoan and a Democrat, and now he has ca«t his lot with the new party. The possibility that the Populists tn *y bold the balance of power in the next legislature of Illinois, may have led to his conversion, as his name has been mentioned as the Populistic candidate for Senator in that event. Judge Trumbull is a man of prominence and ability and his change of faith will doubtless add strength to the new party that In some sections is giving old party leaders something of a scare.

Sknator Hill has finally accepted th* Democratic nomination for Governor of New York, and that state will therefore be the scene of the most notable political conflict of the year. There is no question but that Mr. Hill is the beat vote getter of any candidate ever preeente,i to the people of the Empire state. When Mr. Cleveland was elected govornor by a majority that made him a presidential possibility, Mr. Hill received several thousand more votes as candidate for lieutenant governor tl^an were cast for the head of the ticket. and in 1888 when he carried New York for governor, and Mr. Harrison also carried it, the former received more votes than the latter. Mr. Hill has been the object of much abuse from a portion of the Democratic party, but his vote against the income tax will give him a strength with an element that would otherwise have been thrown against him, Ifhe wins this vear in New York, It will be a testimonial to his popularity greater than has been accorded to any man in recent!

years. It will be a great personal triumph, more than a party victory, ami while he admits publicly that he leads a forlorn hope, he evidently has faith in his ability to pull through The fight In New York this year will possessmore than ordinary interest for una reason

Thk European war that haa been threatening for many years may come to pass in the e?ent of the death of the Czar. He Is in a critical ooudition, and such is the nature of his ailment that death may come at any time. He has been a promoter of peace during his reign, but his removal may precipitate war that will cause an upheaval Europe, and change the boundary lines of some of her countries. When the Czar and Francis Joseph shall have passed away there w|U be removed two men who have been more instrumental in preventing a war between the great powers than any other living men, 0-

THIS perennial, or rather, biennial outcry against the domination of Tam many in New York City politics is heard this year, and the aame old effort is be ing made to destroy the power of that corrupt machine. To the people outside of New York City it would seem that the knowledge already possessed of the rot tenness of Tammany, added to that dis closed in the L9Xow investigation, would be enough to overturn it, but it doesn't seem to. It would appear rather that the people there are perfectly con tent to be misgoverned and robbed, for instead of uniting in the effort to get rid of the "tiger," they go to quarreling, and in the end nominate so many tickets that the common enemy has no trouble to foroe its way into power. The indications this year are perhaps a trifle stronger than usual in pointing to the machine's overthrow- but as a rule all signs fail when they apply to Tammany.

THERE have been World's Pairs and World's Fairs, but the greatest of all was that glorious triumph of last year at Chicago. The World's Exposition at Antwerp has just closed, a month before the time set for it, and its failure has but served to emphasize the wonderful achievements of our own exposition, whose glories are yet fresh in the pub lie mind. Some of the causes for its failure were that it was a third-class affair, that it was poorly managed, that the place4 of it was a third-rate oity, and that it was held in an unusually dull year. The American building erected by the "American Propaganda," and the Amerfcan exhibit that it contained, were very unworthy of the country. The attempt made a half year ago to secure a good show of American machinery was unsuccessful, and American visitors to it were few and far between. The feeble efforts of continental enterprise succeeded in getting up a World's Fair, but produced a show hardly surpassing some of our expositions given every year in the large cities, and compared to the triumph of American energy and industry it was but a side show to the wonders and beauties of the marvelous "White City."

Pleases Because it is Free.

When a thing is free and nt the same time contains great value, being just what everybody wants, it is eagerly sought by all. Every weak, delicate or sickly person will be pleased with the great and generous offer of Dr. Greene, of 36 West 14th street, New York City, the noted and successful specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases. He has established a system of free, letter correspondence, whereby all may write him about their complaint and receive in return a complete description of their ailments, explaining thoroughly the meanng of each symptom, and telling just what to do to be cured. The doctor makes a specialty of treating patients through letter correspondence, giving most careful and explicit attention to every letter, and explains your case so minutely you understand exafctly what your trouble is. All this costs nothing. All those who cannot afford the time or expense of visiting the city can now have the most skillful cousultation and advice free of oharge, and without leaving their homes. The method is successful. Thousands are being cured by it. Try it. Write the doctor and it will ndoubtedly be the means of your getting well.
