AN OLD CHESTNUT
Spencer County Getting Weary cf nr. Patrick and His Railroad.
Rooknort Democrat,
F. L. Patrick came in Sunday
morning and remained over til
Mondav morning, but before leav-
ing he filed a mortgage on the new
railroad, eriven bv the company o
j a w the road to the Union Trust Com
nanv. of Indainapolis, in the
amount of $1,600,000 in trust, and
he informed us that the Trust
company would float the bond for
the construction af the new road
and also purchase them. Before
- A this transaction can take place the
time for completion will have ex
pired, and it will be necessary to
ask for and obtain another exten
sion of time, or lose the subsidies voted in Ohio township. The people
are getting disgusted with this pro
ject, and in justice to the people
the commissioners should entertain no proposition for an extension
unless there i3 a contract entered
into the effect that the road shall
be completed with rolling stock
and all from Rockportto Mitchell,
before any part of the amount is
payable. The people have had
experience sufficient to cause them
to go slow and consider the matter
thoroughly.
This is the same road that Presi
dent Sanders of the I. B. & B. is
trying to effect a consolidation
with, and to that end has had
numerous conferences with the
Rockport officials.
The suit to test the constitution ality of the legislative apportion
ment act has reached the supreme
court by agreement, on appeal
from Sullivan county. The latter
court overruled the demurrer of at torneys for the defense, thus hold ing that the act was invalid. The suit was brought in th name of a citizen of Sullivan county, Fred F.. Basler, and is against the cleik, sheriff and auditor of the county. It asks that they be enjoined in performing their duties as election officers in 1896, under the law of the last legislature, apportioning the number of senators and representatives among the countijs,and that court require them to take all necessary steps under the act of 1893. Senator Turpie, Jason B. Brown, A G.Srnith and Lamb & Beasley ap-
eared for the plaintiff. The re
publican state committee will, through its attorneys , conduct the defense before the supreme court. PUNCTURES. The bicycle illustrates many points in business: It takes "push" to make it go. It is easy to go down hill and easier to take a header when you are going down. You must raisa the wind before you start. It doesn't make as much noise as a traction engine but goes faster. Always have a good balance. It pays to oil up occasionally. The less baggage the better you
get along. Look out for trouble when there is a screw loose. Always ride the wheel, never let it ride you. Maintain your"equilibrium. Don't attempt impossibilities, ft barbed-wire fence for instance. Advertise your coming and gel a clear track.
Gosport On a Boom.
Gosport Independent,
Last Monday evening the Board of
Directors of the Gosport Improve
ment Club held a meeting and de
cided to locate the well just east of
he public spring, provided the
property can be leased.
Now all that is lacking is the time which it will require for the contractor to eet ready and do the
work.
In connection with this it might
be well to state that two of our enterprising citizens who own the old Park Hotel site, have offered to donate the lots to anyone who will put up a brick hotel thereon.

BIoomington,Columbus, and one or two other towns are each claiming through their papers that their school ma'ams are much the better
looking ladies. The Democrat has
no word of disparagement for the

mentioned. As to some it know?,
as to others it has been assured, that
they are as sweet tempered,as pret
ty and as stylish as any of the deni
zens of the respective places could
wish to see, but Lord bless the igno

"You can judge a town by the newspapers," says the Inter Ocean "Never buy town lots where a halfstarved newspaper is published' Newspapers these days are a necessity, not a luxury. They are so cheap that the poorest man can have them unless he is running a

many others he may take he
should support his own paper.''

The corn crop of 1895 promises to be the largest ever grown even in this greatest corn country of the earth. It is expected that there will be not less than 2,000,000,000 bushels. The crop is now fairly safe from weatiier contingencies. The value of all this to the country, counting in the fodder to feed live stock, will be as much as threequaters of a billion dollars. The more of this we can use at home as food for people and animals the
better. Argentina has become a formidable rival to us in the sale of Indian corn to Europe, and export prices wHl be low. Meat of all kind in this country is very high to the consumer, however little the producer may receive for it. But certainly quicker and more skillful routes from producer to consumer
can be found thaa those at present
in vogue. The farmer will get thejthe care of H- L- Dilmon. most for his great Indian corn crop t Baaket Dinner, Lord's Day. i . . . . I I a 1 ...11
