Every member of the Committee is requested to be present. W. F. Bkowxixg, J. G. McPheeters, . . . Chairman. Secretary. ANNOUNCEMENTS. FBAXK R. WOOLLEY & a candidate for re-election to the office of Trustee of Bloomington township, subject to the decision of the Republican nominating convention. Tax name of Frank; R. Woolley as a candidate for Trustee of this (Bloomington township) is announced this morning. Mr. Woolley . has very efficiently filled that office during the present term and is only the better qualmed for that posiHOB. "The Bloomington papers are blowing a srreat deal about, the. nine ty thousand dollars that has been invescetain new uuuuuags . w"cent city during tne past year, evidently trying te convey the impression that these figures represent an increase in size and 'population. The real facta are that the carpenters and bricklayers have been trying to keen pace witn tne lneenaianes, ana the fire -bugs have given them a hard race. I beat era magnet. Ob, green eyed jealousy, thou art a monster. By the way, the Bedford papers have not given us the amount ef building done in that little villiage yet.

W, Busfcirk is given complete. Next week that of Judge Claypool will be published. ThisfMcKinney matter is something that all are deeply interested in and it is the duty of a paper that in any way pretends to give the news, to famish a report of every thing connected with the ease. Saturday the Republican Central Committee of Monroe county held a meeting that was largely attended all the members being present but four, which in itself is an index of the interest Republicans are already taking in the opening canvass. It is also an assurance that the coming invass is being entered with a .de termination of victory. The Central Committee has its province and the Republican masses also a duty to perform; the first to plan and sug gest; the latter to execute and carry out. There is nothing that is more indicative of success this early in a canvass as last Saturday's Central Committee meeting. The committee will meet again at the same time and place on Saturday February tnd, when every member is expected to be present. The New York Independent, if not honest in its discussions is nothpaper stands in the front rank of the very highest grade of journalism. Last week it says. The Ohio Democrats, since the defeat of Senator. Pendleton, are saying terrible things about each other. The defeat of the Senator was a downright betrayal, like that of Judas who sold his Master for thirty pieces , of silver. Money bought the success of Mr. .Payne. "Corruption has made rotten the Democratic legislature of Ohio. Money has had its potency to drag honor down into the mire, batanic temptinge by promises of future official profit have seduced the trustees oi .tne noDiest estate witmn tne tranfer of men. The guardians of political rights have betrayed their waras. xnese traitors to weir con stituents must he investigated. To the evidence "accumulated, untiring labor must add more damning testi,mony. ne insult ijo tue law oi tne state must Be avengeq, ana a peni tentiary cell door opened tor any one proved: guilty of -corruption." Such IS tne pen-picture oi ..tne xmuorauo legislature, of Ohio, draw, by a Dem .1 . .1 Tk i-' - ocratic editor who is the bosom friend of Ex-Senator Thurman, and may be supposed to express the views of that venerable statesman. Mr. Pendleton- was literally butcher ed bv Democratic eut-throats. We shall not undertake to say how much truth there is in this sort of talk, or how much of it is due to the wrath of defeat; but if half of it is true, then Ohio Democracy is in a pretty ban way, and its prospect for "clean, ing out the rascals" in the president ial contest of next year is not very encouraging. Mind you, this is not what Republicans say abeut Demo-

rats, bt what pemocaatr say about heraselves. 'Tie votes of the liquor

saioond thegrprahops fare them the victory last Fall, and now they nave gotten into a most Diner quarrel over the distribution of the spoils. Republicans can afford to lopk on complacently, while these Democrats tell their own story and disclost their own secrets. Thk Republican .State Central Committee met Wednesday, last week, with all the districts represented, and ordered that a State convention for the nomination of ' the four delegates of the States at large to the National Convention, and four alternates, be held in this city April 17; also, that, district conventions fer the selection of twe delegates and two alternates for the National Convention meet on the 10th ef April, at the following places: First District Kvansville. Second District Vinccnnes. Third District Jefferuonville. Fourth District Lawrenceburg. Fifth District Martinsville. Sixth District Newcastle. Seventh District Indianapolis. Eighth District Not yet fixed. Ninth Distsict Tipton. Tenth District Losjan sport. Eleventh District Marion. Twelfth District Auburn, Thirteenth District Plymouth. These district conventions will al so select each one member of the State Centra 1 Committee. The representation to the State Convention on the 1th was fixed on the basis of one delegate for each 600 votes Cast for Porter in 1880, and one for every fraction over 250. It was or dered that no other business be transacted at this convention except the selection of delegates for the States at large, as indicated in the call. The State nominating Convention was ordered to be at Indianapolis on the 19th of June, and the basis of representation, together with that of the district conventions, was placed at one for every 200' votes cast for Porter in 1880, and ene- few every fraction over 100. County mass conventions for the selection of delegates ware ordered to be heldprior te March 4. "Sexatob Habris-x Svants- to give the Indiana soldiers a monument. Senator Voorbees wants to pay them what is henestiy their due." rindianapolis Sentinel. Oh, how loyal Daniel is new! When Senator Harrison was earning his promotion as a General, wJaere was Mr. Voorhees then? This Democrtic slush, about Voorhees sad the soldiers is a indeed refreshing, considering a comparigon of the two Senators, var records. To loyal men during that time when Vorhees was calling General Harrison's com rades "Lincoln dogs" anl Lincoln i hirelings," such "stuff" is iot appreciated, nor will it deceive them.. Ax item in the Franklin Jeffersonian states that "J. H. Vannnys, of Hopewell, sold to the Grand. Hotel,. at Indianapolis, nearly four thousand, pounds of butter from Jan. 1st 1883 to Jan. 1st, 1884." Prof. Cole, who at one time was a near neighbor Mr. YannuysJ states tbat he got 25 cents a. pound for this bntter, and that all it is from Jersey cows, that are kept and fed on a few acres of ground. ft is often a wonder to us why some Monroe county farmers do not quit trying to raise crops, and stock up a lew acres oi tneir Dest gjass xanu, and with half the work, make- a g?wd living. Sf-eciai. attention is derected te the card of R. A. Fulk, ex-county Auditor,in as much as it i a denial of a greater part of the "slash" that appeared in the Courier last week. Mr. Fulk is a Democrat in whom there is no gile, and he, Kke all reas onable persons, believes in laying the blame of the McKinney default at its proper place and hot making every olhccr in the county a party to the crime, as the Courier is so anxious to do. $Ir. Cbit. A. Cox is being men tioned as a candidate for the Repub lican nomination for Auditor of State.' Mr. Cox wiilgct a solid delegation from Monroe county. There is not a better friend of the State University to be found; and there is not a man in the State better qualified to be its Auditor. "All the saloons of this city, over thirty in number, closed to-day by the concerted action of their keepers who, it is understood, have gone out of the business for good." The above dispatch from Wichata, Kansas, would not indicate that in temperance is on the. increase.
