It is said that over 20,000 voters in Indiana lost their votes this year because of ignorance of the law in regard to stam; ling ballots. It is rather remarkabh that two of the trio of inventors ol sleeping cars

have been killed in railroad accidents, Wagner a few years ago and Woodruff recently. Tollman is yet to be heard from. Some venturesome individual is talking of starting a newspaper at the little town of Osceola in this county. If lie \sn’t wearing fringes at the bottom of his pants in a few months it will be very strange.

* o The new management of the Indianapolis News will make a change in the policy of the paper. it will hereafter be conducted as a republican journal, with TV. J. Richards as publisher and Chas. It. Williams editor. A big land boom is on at Wanatah, , La forte county. A big synidicate has purchased land near that place, it is said, for the location of a large factory and a colony <n Hollanders. Land near Wanatah has increased tenfold in value. Mind your own business and make j the best of jour present opportunities ’ is a sufficient guide to success.- Nap- j panee Advance. There is as much good, sound truth i in thp above little three line squib as there is in a pound of wool. An exchange aptly remarks that the tneory of the office seeking the man is i a pretty one and it might occasionally | pan out in practice if it were not in- * variably true that some man is industriously seeking that same office; it is generally captured before it succeeds in its search for the man.

■ Congressman Shively had a plurality pf 2,700 at the last election. If the republicans of the Thirteenth district expect to win in the coming congressional election they will have to 4oil up their sleeves and do some of the liveliest hustling ever known in the — ■ history of political campaigns.

An

improvement association w oi„« ; ized, water works were put in, a large novelty works started nd the resul is that Plymouth is to-day one of tne | liveliest and most thriving towns m northern Indiana. A shining example of what a little public spirit and enterprise will accomplish. ; Pres. Harrison KTbeing jumped upon by certain gentlemen of the preac ier persuasion because he signed the Chinese exclusion bill. The Chinese arc simply an indigestible element of our body politic. They can not be Americanized or assimilated. 11 y must go, and a large number of aliens from across the other ocean ought to go with them. —Milford Mau

n | The Mail is right. The United! f States, while it offers -an asylum for 11 the worthy poor and oppressed of the ; 1 world, should not be the dumping ground for the low-livi d trash of other nations. America's free, pure air i not to be contaminated with the m archisticand idol- worshipping elements : of the old world. About one of the smallest things of which a person can be guilty is to begrudge the old soldier the little pittance of a pension granted him by the gov-

Cl A o eminent There is not a soldier wl.o underwent the hardships and d ig o of the late war for the magnificent | salary of thirteen dollars a month, but would be vastly better off to-day, both । in purse and health, had he never gone j to the front, and given four of the best. years of his life in lighting for his country. It seems hardly credible that any person would be mean enough to manifest such a niggaiuly d*>po sition toward air old soldier. Yet there is just that kind . . pe plc in the land to-day, and the fact c<o . < ■ one to indulge in serious rcllectious •T’c - indeed an ungrate-Al, cruel wcull

dared to ten the ,1 u die knows to be true there would ■ be weeping and wailing hereabouts for j many moons and yet the most vol nerable people are those who attempt to do the editor the greatest personal injury. , ? ome day the records may be written so plainly that the panorama will be clearly comprehensible to every beholder—lililford Mail. Bro. Bowersox, you will soon get accustomed to being a target, then you will and unpleasable people good—advertising mediums.— Nappanee News. Yes, indeed, indeed he will.

Lepiesentative Bynum, of Indiana, is blossoming out as a vice-presidential candidate on the democratic ticket. Uis name was recently suggested at a dinner given by an Oregon editor in A\ ashington City, and it was the unanimous expression of every one present that Bymun would be a good man for second place on the national ticket, the idea seems to strike a responsive

chord with a large per cent of ths demociat ic party, and it looks very much i as if the astute Indianian was on the eve of a full-fledged boom for vice-pres-i ident. The value of the Inmei'FNDENT as I ar. advertising medium is becoming Iprettj well established, and our shrewd , merchant!-, who can appreciate and । know the advantage that a local pa 'ei ।is to the town and its busmess men, j are improv;ng 'he epportunit: m < by its columns to adverdse their bus! , ness. thereby uelm ig to attract people , not < niy to the town bat to their places • of business from dl the smrou.u’ing ! j wide territory of vk it ; Wa”:-- . stands the common ,1 center ot j । course adver* isme aJi not dm im>-. i thing; it will not restore' graj hair to j its natural color nor bring a luxuiimd growth of hair on a bald s -dp. bm i? will sell goods if you have them to soil and know how to deal with people after you once attract them to your place. Certainly advertising pays, if judiciously and persistently followed, and every merchant who has had any experience worthy of note knows this full well, and none but thw wm.

the “Gold Spike” having entirely faded away, our people can now see the neeessitv of working for this road w .Ui a vigor surpassing all former efforts, the । Indiana. Illinois and lowa railway oi tbc “Three Ts” as it G more general .' known, now runs from Streator 111 ■ ' Knox, Indiana, and the desire nt U ' ! management is to build the road on b Toledo, Ohio. Mr ShroM oithua Igo, the general manager of the read ialso a stockholder in the Les b maim factoring company of this city, wl.de , e w. Cook, the general passe ( i agent, is a brother-in law of Mr . John ' ■ Halderman, the president of the Lesli

company, so that Warsaw is lum^ closely connected with the road as it now stands, than is common in railroad affairs. The road is now surveyed from | Knox to Plymouth but the proposed , new route is to run southwest from Knox to Mentone, this comity, on through Palestine, Warsaw, North 1 Webster, and from there on using the I old “Gold Spike” survey, and the aid I voted to the road. This would run J through Albion, Kendallville and on to I Fayette, Ohio, from which point a diJ rect air line to Toledo would be built. 5 This is the most feasible project yet > suggested in the way of a iabroad, foi it ts not a new line hut an extension of

an old established road. The road will be built, either on this route or via Plymouth, and Goshen as originally projected.
