Our home merchants have found it very hard to combat the mail or der houses, heretofore, and have in many instances sold goods at prices to equal the mail-order house price on stuff of inferiour quality. As a consequence they are justly annoyed to learft that a Syracuse lady is canvassing the town with a mail-order catalog, claiming to sell the same goods that our merchants are handling and at a lower price. If this mail-order representative calls, ask her a few quesions. Ask her how much the fiim she represents will subscribe to our interurban project. Ask how much they will give toward sprinkling the street. Ask how much they will donate to our Soldiers’ Memorial Monument. Ask how much they will subscribe towards repairing the chrches of the town. Ask if they will give you credit until you are able to pay. This manner of looking at the matter may seem a little harsh, but if we expect our town to thrive we must look the matter squarely in the face. The money earned here should be spent here to the greatest possible extent. Think these questions over and you can’t help but see that it is to your advantage to trade at home. There seems to be a very determined effort on the part of the Goshen papers to belittle Syracuse’s chances of getting an interurban line, from the tenor of their articles it is easily seen that they are ignorant of the plan and its details. It might be said that their mouths are puckering with the taste of sour grapes. It might be amusing if it were not so suspicious, this effort on I - the part of our Goshen friends to guard us from any financial loss. The News-Times thinks that because a line is contemplated from Ft. Wayne to South Bend via Kendallville and Goshen, our line would not pay. Their logic is rather complex and difficult to see and we are still convinced that sour grapes is the principal condiment in their view. To put it tersely, Isch ka bibble, also pish. J. H. Miller will leave behind him an enviable reputation as a postmaster. The volume of mail has eaormously since Mr. Miller has been in charge and the postal savings, etc, has added heavily to the duties. However, little, if any complaint has been heard concerning the efficient manner in which our postoffice has been conducted. As we said above, Mr. Miller leaves behind him an enviable record.

In this issue of the Journal you will find the announcement of Isaiah Klingaman as a candidate for the nomination of township assessor. Mr. Klingaman has been supervisor in his district for the past fifteen years and has given general satisfaction. His’vocation of auctioneer fits him well for the duties of assessor and bis many friends hope for his success. A Muncie jury has decided that a 1 moving picture show is a necessity 1 and can be operated on Sunday k Without violation of the law. Notice To The Public ; —The firm of Croop &.
