The Profits Of the Bank.

The barber-ous operations of the State Bank oil
Indiana exempifed in report in relation to the
profits of the branches for the last year. Several OF
them range from to per cent, while the Fort
Wayne Branch has paid 81 per cent, South Bend IL
per cent, Richmond 10i per cent. and Michigan City
IL per cent. This is what we call banking with a
vengeance. And yet, while the Bank has been enabled
to declare such proft-while even the South Bend
cripple pays ten per cent, we may well ask who have
enjoyed the benefits of the institution Have you,
Mr. Farmer, or you, Mr.. Mechanic! Not penny
The best farmer in Elkhart county, backed by the
wealth of her praires, could not obtain the accommo
dation of a hundred dollars, while the speculator on
the farmers wheat has drawn his thousands, and thai
too, without his being resident of the State
And yet the Bank, not satisfied with these enormous
profits asks the privilege of continuing the issue oil
small bills during the lifetime Of its charter, that the
pockets of the people may be crammed with the dirty
rags, instead of the pure white coin Of the nation
Instead of yielding to such request, we say, chain
the tiger while it is young-keep it in subsection, and
when it has arrived at maturity-when Its career Of
intrigue and oppression and outrage has been lei
it die the death of dog and be consigned to merited
oblivion, unwept, unhonored and unSung." -GoShen
Democrat, Dec %.
This brings to mind some recent transactions here
While our citizens the best of them, at mos
obtain paltry hundred dollars or two foreign specu
laors can get their thousands. 1t is very well known
that the first speculation in flour, this season, was
accomplished in this way. Gentlemen from Columbus
got their thousands at moments notice, and with il
bought -four at low rates from mlers. If it had
been for this combination of the Bank and foreign
spectators, millers would have received the
benefit of the increased price, and could then have
afforded give better prices to the farmers for their
wheat than they can now do. These things are abso
lutely damnable
Yet in the face and eyes of the above facts, there
is undoubtedly strong disposition in the Legislature
to increase the privileges of the Bank But we pre-
dict, if it be done, if the small note issue be
tinued there is not an honest man who votes for it,
whether Wing or Democrat, but will ultimately bitter
ly regret the act. Let the wise be prudent.

Let US pray ferverntly for this Nation

that both Rulers and People may habnu-

the affairs of men, and be impressed with
the truth, that neither great wealth, nor
extended national domain, nor formidable
means of defence, nor all combined, can
so exalt and protect nation, as Rig
BUSINESS and the spirit of Peace: and that
however high may be GU. apparent pros

come, if we do not listen 10 the voice OF
God, ard obey His wilI--for that it will
forever remain true, that the nation and
kingdom that will not serve Him, shall be
utterly wasted and shall perish.
And finally, let us pray that God would
inspire the Rulers and People of this ma.
tion, and the Rulers and People Of every
nation, with the charity OF the Gospel, the
spirit that overcometh evil with good, 10
the end that wars may utterly cease, and
that the mighty energies that have so long

CHENEY FAMILY CONCERT. On Mon
day evening Of this week, this Choir gave
a Concert at the Town Hall in this viii
Iage; and, judging from appearances, the
audience did not grudge their time nor
money. Allowing me to Judge correctly,
some few errors were committed by por.
ton of the performers, probably through
nadverlence, in dividing sOOrds for the
purpose of reviving the bias. from the
lungs in not sufficiently preparing for
a long blast; and in some cases too fully
exhausting discharge from the lungs,
before recovering. Nevertheless, as
whole, l considered the pieces well per-
formed, many of them remarkably so, and
the performers as meriing public patron
age. Oae of the Bass voices was excel
lent, but falling lsltle short of that Of one
Of the " Bakers" which performed here
last year. The other voices were better
than those of the "Baker Family" and

ANTI LICENSE SERMON.

Messrs Bishop & Tracy, Windsor, w.,
will please accept my thanks for copy of
the Rev. Charles Walkers Sermon against
licensing the sale of intoxicating drinks.
This sermon was delivered at Brattleboro,
Sunday, Dec. 20, 1915; and is based on
the following text "But judge this rather,
that no man put stumbling block, or an
occasion to fall, in his brothers. way."-
Rom. xiv. 13.
This is plain, straightforward, common
sense discourse and the truths presented in
it could be met by no other argument than
HClear out MIR Walker we don't want
the Subbath desecrated by your showing US

force Of such an argument!
AS the sermon is short, will endeavor 10

this paper.
"She that manufactures for her own

AN EXTRAORDINARILY LOPEMAFT.

Ia consequence OF fair promises Of mar.
riage young lady of Cabotvlle, Mass,
was induced 10 elope with young man
of that place. They took French leave,
and went straight ON to Buffalo as fast as
the steam horse could whirl them there.
On their arrival in that city, they took
rooms at one of the first hotels, and the
youngman the unsuspecting young girl
that he had sent for minister, who would
soon tie their destinies together in the
d" hard knot" of matrimony. But then,
poor creature, came bitter disappoint.
ment-a destruction OF The airy castle hope
had built. Under this comforting assur-
ance, and taking advantage Of her conf
dence of the near approach OF the consum-
nation of all her tondest anticipations and
brightest dreams, the fathess villain at
tempted to accomplish the ruin of the fair
girl whose affections ne had won and who
had given convincing proofs of her attach
ment 10 him, and reliance on his promises.
But the fellow was baked in his Infamous
design. The vigorous resistance of the
poor girl and her cries for help, brought
assistance ere her strength failed her.
The landlord burst into the room, and
soon received frank and honest states
ment OF all the circumstances from The
girl. His measures were quickly taken.
A, his request the weeping girl left the
room; then locking the door, he said to
the failhless. heartless fellow" Now you
contemplate seoundrel, bring me all your
baggage and open it," The command
was observed. "Now," he added, "slrip
yourself Of all your outer garments, hand
them to me-" This order was also obey
ed. He then searched his trunk and peck.
cts, and taking therefrom all the money
that he could find, amounting to about $780,
he returned TO the fellow his clothes and
baggage, and when he had dressed, gave
him hint 10 leave the house, tha, he was
not slow to take. He then gave the girl
all the money, and putting her in the safe
charge of friend, sent her home TO CABS
oLville. He has since received letter
from her, thanking him heartily, in the
name of herself and her parents, for his
timely aid in rescuing her so efeclually
from an unmitigated villain.
The landlord has his reward. Wetrusl
the false hearted seducer will receive the
full punishment his vllainy merits--AIb.

holding in his hand an ear Of corn, as an
emblem of friendship. The C conception OF
this work is nob.e-how could it be Others
wise, commemoralng one of the subimest
incidents in The annals of mankind? Flee
ing from the arm OF persecution in Eng
land, the Pilgrims of New England stand
at this day pre'eminent among their kind,
for that one act of sublime self"sacrifce.
Coming to an unknown, wild and saw
age region, whose shores were washed BY
a tempestuous sea, whose lands were ster-
lie, whose inhabitants were savages, ene-
mics to civilization and 10 Christianity,
we can now scarcely estimate the great
ness of their sufferngs, or calculate the
amount of the reward that history owes
them.
This colony, commonly known by the
name of the Puritans, landed at Plymouth,
in Massachusetts, and soon after began the
first permanent English settlement in New
England.
They fed from England to Amsterdam
in Holland, in 1907, with their clergy
man, the Rev. Mr. Robinson from AM
sterdam they moved to Leyden, where
they remained until they set OUT for Amer>
lea.
Among the reasons for leaving their
homes in England, the prospect presented
of enjoying "a purer worship and great.
err liberty of conscience" was the. princi>
pal. They came to the wids of the Wes-
tern world, pilgrims of conscience; and it
was their descendants, who, born with the
love of liberty in their hearts, reared the
standard OF revolulion against tyranny, up.
on the sacred mount of Bunker, and met
the foes of freedom for seven long years,
on every ield,where man could die or con-
quer.
In the centre of the Roundo stands the
celebrated statue of Washington, by Green
ough, the American sculptor. While
these pages are passing through the press,
the statute is covered from obser walton,
