ftmunG big cniim We Should Rejoice Over Figure ing by Billions in Income and Outgo. THE MOST FAVOREO OH EARTH Few of us have the faintest conception of the real magnitude of these United. States of America. We read of two-billion-dollar Congresses, and we see three billion dollar Congresses hovering on tbe horizon, and we wonder, in a vague and indefinite sort of way, if that isn’t a good deal of money to spend, but we seldom get down to brass tacks and figure out just how nearly we are able to stand it, if at all. Eight billion dollars is the estimate worth of this year’s crops of various kinds throughout the United States! That is a stupendous sum; quite beyond the conoeption of human intellect. You can form some mental idea of the meaning of those figures, however, when we say that the sum mentioned represents nearly nine times the interest-bearing debt of the government, or that it would pay the debt, and still leaves enough money on hand to purchase the railroad's—every one of them. What a great, big whale of a country this is, to be sure! There is no industry or agricultural pursuit that may be carried on anywhere on the globe that may not be carried on here—at least, none worth mentioning. On the contrary, nowhere else in the world can some of our crops be successfully cultivated. In the matter of cotton alone, this country is without a competitor; the lit tie raised in other climes compares with ours in only a very remote degree of excellence and usefulness. That one crop alone easily totals tbc entire crop value of many other countries occupying conspicuous places on the map and honorable places among nations. How many men can go out in their back yards, or out in their fields, and pay themselves out of debt nine times, and still have something left for a rainy day? Very few, we take it. Yet that is what “Uncle Sam” does regularly—w&at he has just done, in fact. Really, when you come to figure it out, a billion-dollar Congress—such as we used to abuse our statesmen for—would in this day and time seem a pretty tame, if not actually niggardly, affair. A two-billion-dollar Congress is by no means extravagant, if extravagance be reckoned according to one’s means. Nor will a three-billioc-dollar Congress seem unreasonable in the near future, if things boom along for the next few years as they have boomed along for the past few. As a matter of fact, we are just beginning to take our real measure ■ in this land. We have grown so fast and so furiously that we have hardly had time heretofore to think about bow big we were getting. We are gigantic, and we are just now finding it out—[Washington (I). C.) Herald.

It is said that there are very few grasshoppers in this locality this vear while there seems' to be an over abundance of potato bugs and the cucumbers are bothered with a new species of bug, a long, slim, striped fellow. Just where the hoppers have gone or whence all the other bugs came, no one seems able to tell,

Gift from Leonard Brown Prof. Bachman has received from the author, as a gift to the school library, an autograph copy of a book of six hundred pages by Leonard Brown, entitled “Our Own Columbia That Is To Be.” It is a collection of several short essays, interspersed and illuminated with many of Mr, Brown’s poems. These essays, while they find many ills in our body politic to be cured always are tilled with an optimistic spirit of faith, which makes them wholesome. We have no patience with the criticisms of the pessimist, who tells us fiist how bad we are and then predicts that we are going to grow worse. But we do not object to having our shortcomings pointed out to us by one who gives us hope that we shall be able to overcome them. For if we honestly desire to, improve conditions we will count him a friend who points out to us the errors that need correction. Thus, while Mr. Brown is a rather a severe critic, his ever present optimism makes his criticism acceptable! We quote a portion of an essay entitled “Commercialism and Extortion,” apropos of the refusal of the Board of missions to accept* Mr. Rockefeller’s gift'of $100,000: Is Mr. Rockefeller worse than any other modern devoted to money making? I stop off to get a bite to eat, the train giving twenty minutes to passengers for that purpose. Here is a railroad restaurant adjoining the depot. Ten cents is charged for a sandwich, a bun split in halves and a wafer of meat between, Buns like this one are sold, at McQp*.m's establishment in Des Moip«o, lowa, for five cents a dozen, *ad the piece of meat inserted to make the sandwould hardly weigh an ounce. A few blocks away from the depot one may have a good meal at a restaurant for fifteen cents. Are Rockefeller’s methods of extortion worse than those practiced wherever men are compelled to purchase articles necessary to subsistence, and opportunity is found for extortion? Mr. Rockefeller is a typical money maker. All churches in America are, and have ever bean, built and the ministery supported by contributions from just this kind of extortioners. There is neither law nor public opinion adverse to extortion ; for the sin is so common that no business man or woman can plead not guilty of the crime, though it is declared in the bible a great sin. There would be, under our present order, no churches built, no ministers supported, nor missions established if contributions we refused from men no better than Mr. Rockefeller. The hesitancy of the board of mission to accept money from the millionaire oil magnate to “spread the gospel” when what we term “commercialism” is the religion of Christendom, is anomalous, to say the least: Cursed be Mammon! Oh the wrong And suffering that the lust of gold Inflicts upon the land we level “Twas profitable,” and slaves were shipped From Africa. Did God then ?leep? * * * * . Two centuries And far into the third, went by; The blacks still groaning ’neath the yoke! “Tis profitable,” and alcohol Is loaded upon ships that steam To Africa. What moves those ships— Those great “leviathans of the deep?” A giant force—the lust of gold! On board those ships freighted with rum Are missionary chanting hymns!

Syracusein 1875 Items from the corresponding issues of The Syracuse Enterprise. O. O. I where is he? Bolivar had a dance last Saturday night. Wilson & Charpie, of Goshen, gave us a call on Tuesday. Geo. Crocker, of LaPorte, was in town the latter part of last week. One of Dr. Kelley’s sorrel horses died with the colic on last Friday. bamuel.Evey has moved into the Brumbaugh property over the Rhine. , Mr. J. N, Crary, of the firm of Crary & McAllister, of Goshen, was in town yesterday. Di. J. F. Wickham, of Avilla,. Ind., formerly of this was in town for a few days' last week. — G. M. Ray has given his house a coat or two of paint, thereby adding much to its appearance. » We understand that the wife of John Willard, living south of town, isjvery sick. Abram Carey and lady, of Volina, Michigan, are visiting, the parents of the former at this place. J ■ — I We understand that Rev. Davis Younce has purchased a dwelling house upon the hill, on north Huntington street. Mr. Bender, traveling salesman for the wholesale house of Thanhouser, Wiler & Co., of Ft. Wayne, was in town on Friday last. From the Indianian we learn that Mock., a daughter of John XJock, of Tippecanoe township, died a few days fiice. Mrs. Mock, the mother, is also very low. Mr. Henry Deardoff, a £artqfer living a few miles northwest of town, died on Saturday last and was buried on Sunday. He had been ill for some months, with asthma, we believe. One day last week our old friend, Dr. Broderick, of New Paris, honored our sanctum with a visit. Unfortunately, we were not in at the time. Call again, Doctor, "when we are at home. We have heard it said that Ben Gerber is going up in the baloon oti Saturday. We don’t know how this is, but if the baloon is to be inflated with sulphurated hydrogen gas, we think Wyfiant should accompany him. ■ We have recently finished ioco bills for C. W. Strombeck, advertising his new Excelsior, Double-Jointed Harrow, which is designed to supercede the common harrow on thh farm. Mr. Strompeck understands the value of hiS invention; and we trust will succeed in making ft profitable for himself. , Quite a number of Goshpnites were having a day’s sport upon the lake on Tuesday. They came out in a four-horse team, with Tom Evans as -driver, and among the number %e recognized W. M. Star, of the Times, Jesse Fuson, W. H. Welkner, I. A. Simmons and Verb Walker. There were twelve or fourteen in the party, one-half of which were ladies. ■ - ' •' I Shall pfe have any additional church edifices erected in Syracuse this summer? Early in the Spring, we were informed by responsible parties thatone at least—catholic —would be built this season, and perhaps one or two others. Sipce then we have heard nothing concerning them, and we are fearful that they |: have been dropped. We certainly need, one or two additional churches here, as We now have but one, hud it is not convenient for, all denominations to occupy itr—■ «~ gQq Farm four and a half mi. ■ ===== from Pierceton; soil of sand and clay loam: gqod house, new wind pnmp, water piped to house, barn just fair, nice young orchard; about 70a is under cultivation, balance wood and pasture.
