Hambleton died at his home in South Bend a few days since. He was an orator of considerable ability. Our citizeus, perhaps, will remember the gentleman as haviog spoken here during | the late presidential eampaign. George Francis Train proposes to take 50 newspaper reporters around the world in fifty days, starting in October, to advertise the world's fair. Says it will be a grand success if they adopt his idea concerning its management; if they don’t do that it will be a gigantic failure. And thus Train gives America fair warning, ——— In noting Hon. John. B. Stoll’s presence at the National capital, the Washington Post says: “For the past thirty vears Mr, Stoll has been an editor, and a good one too, in northern Indiana. If Mr. SBhively does not want a renomination Mr. Stoll will probablly sueeceed him in codgress, he being very popular with the working class.” And what a magnificent Congressman he would make, too! Consecientious, . scholarly and commanding in address and appearance, he would be & power in Congress, and add luster to the brilliaut Demoeratic delegation of Hoosiers now in there, RS OB YRS R It is an experience of publishers that too many peopleareapt to think it matters little whether the newspaper bill is paid promptly or not, that it is a small sum and is of but little consequence. It is not because subseribers are unwilling to pay, but rather because they are negligent. Each one imagines becanse his year's indebtedness amounts to so small a sum the publisher ¢annot be much in want of it, without for a moment thinking that the income of a newspaper is made up of just such small amounts and that the aggregate of all subseriptions is by no means inconsiderable sums of money, withont which publishers could not continue their paper. The proper way is to always pay in advance. AA L S AP Congressman Boutelle of Maine has introduced into cougress an amendment to the inter-state commerce law. It defines the power of congress with regard to the sale of intoxicating liguors, and declares that nothing in the interstate comm’reeact shall be hield asinauy way iuterfering with the right of states to regulate or prohibit the sale of intoxieating liquors. This measure is brought forth now to meet the exigency caused by the recent decision of the supreme court that liquors in origmal packages, brought from one state into another, aece not amenable to loecal laws for regulating or prohibiting their sale, The measure should promptly pass eongress, atud be further amended so as to allow state aud loeal authorities to prevent the sale of meat brought from other states without due inspeetion asto its healthfulness before the animal was killed. These laws are not properly matters of commerce, but police regulations, regulating puplic health and molals, and they are therefore better managzed by the state and loeal author- i ities than by the general government. | —Soutl Bend Tribune. e U T A suif to test the right of a juror to campromise away his convietions has jnst been filed at Indianapolis, and, as it is the first of the kind in the sute, it l is eavsing considerable interest ‘among | the attorneys. Martha Hanna bhad the | care of a helpless relative, and when 1 the latter died a claim for $2,000 was! put in against the estate, Suit was “ brought to enforce the claim, and the jury, after hearing the evidence and retiring for consultation, stood seven to five in favor of the plaintiff. After the second day five went over to the defendant, and then it was proposed that, if the other two would consent,a verdict wonld be returned so as to place the costs upon the defendant. The verdict for one dollar was then returned, the object beiug to make it only snch ns wonld carry the costs against the defendant. It is elaimed that the verdict is illegal and should be set aside, Scoves of such verdiets have been rendered in the justice courts of Sonth Bend, against the most positive evidence in favor of the defendants for the sole purpose of getting the jurors’ fees and other costs. There is neither Jaw nor equity in such comprowmise verdiets. and there should be a remedy.— South: Bend 'Lribune,

The Farmer’s Trust. At last the farmers have a sure remedy for depressed prices. A company has been incorporated in Illinois, with headquarters at Chicago, under the awe inspiring title of the Farmers’ Co-oper-ative Brotherhood of the United States, ’ The incorporators propose to do business with €50,000,000, which will be ) subseribed by the farmers. When the stock is all taken, the brotherhood will | be informed by the farmers what price ! they desire for their grain, and the [ brotherhood will go into the market 'and push the price up to the desired ! point. Thus farmers can sell their i grain, and buy maore stock in the brotherhoad, and in a short time the brotherhood will have the grain and the far--mers will have the stock. The scheme 18 very simple and will undonbtedly prove a howling sucecess—that is, the farmers will howl for their grain, which f the promoters have suecessinlly made away with. The armers’ Brotherhood ‘are to get rich by buying their own lgmin. The “farmers” who are in the | schieme probably all live in Chicago. ' The eurious part of this and all similar plans for increasing the price of the farmers’ produnee is that it utterly loses sight of the fact that the farmers of the United States do not raise all the grain in the world. In fact, any very great advance in the price of wheat, for instance, would be almost certain to bring Russian wheat to onr shores, in spite of the tariff. The farmer haa not had a very good time of it of late years; but his redemption will not be bronght about by any such scheme as the brotherhood proposes, or the equally brilliant plan of the Detroit gentlemen who proposed that farmers could instantly donble the price of wheat by burning half of tLeir erop.—American Miller. ———e — . — &‘- b ‘dlw 75 el e T
