In coming before the citizens of
Marshall County, we promise them
that our entire ability and energy
shall he devoted to making the MAR
SHALL County REPUBLICAN one of the
best papers in Northern Indiana;
and while we shall ever devote part
of our columns to General News,
Agriculture, Literature, &C., our
principal aim shall be to advocate the
Great Principles of the Republican
Party, as we believe that the future
welfare and prosperity of our coun-
try greatly depends upon the success
of the Republican Principles. We
firmly believe that the success of the
Republican party is as important
now as when Lee and the Southern
Confederaey was battling for the de-
struction OF our Country.

MR. MATTIxGLY with surprise and re-

of Marshall County have long and
nobly battled together against the
Democracy with courage deserving
success; and Mr. MATTISGLY truly
says that 1.-THE Republican Cause is

though he has retired from the Edi-

hope that be will still continue to
battle in the cause-that we will of
ten have the assistance ofhis pen in
the coming Campaign
We shall do all in our power to re-
deem Marshall from the Democratic
rule. We will work for the election
of our National Standard Bearers,
and the entire Republican Ticket du-
ring the approaching Campaign; but
the success of our efforts will greatly
depend upon the support and assist

The Nashville agent Of the Associated
Press is responsible for the following bud
get of horrors: Seabern James was hanged
in Maury county, near Columbia, on Fri
day night last by the Ku-Klux Klan. His
alleged offence was forcinga step-daughter,
fourteen years of age, to share his bed,
and the murder Of his child three months
old. He, it is said, absconded from Nash
vile a short time since, when his first
offence became known, taking his child
with him, and killing it in Maury county
Also, William Clemens was murdered on
Friday night, near Johnsonsville, on the
Tennessee river. His body was found the
next morning with the throat cut. He

badly for his money (more likely for his

AFrank Admission.

Judge Reed, prominent democratic
politician, in speech at Rushville a short
time since, exhorted bis friends TO sub
scribe Tor the Jacksonian. telling them that
they must read more; that unless they did
they must inevitably sooner or later sue
comb to the more enlightened portion of
COMMUNICATIVE Republicans. He told
them that the intelligence of the Country
was against them, the Churches and the
Preachers were against them. the day
Schools and the Sunday Schools were
against them, and that il was a matter of
absolute necessity for them to 90 10 read
ing and informing themselves.
The admission is very frank one vet
just as true as can be, and does il not argue
that there is something wrong with party
which has arrayed against it the intelli-
gences, Churches, Preachers and Schools
OF the land? Ii all these be against it who
can be for it? Certainly dishonesty and
ignorance combined must keepit in exis-
tence. But we thirk the Speaker did
very injudicieus thing when he advised
bis partisans to "read and inform them
selves" for such course leads directly in
to the Radical camp.

Costly wines.

The Chateau Latitte was recently sold
to Baron Rothschild at 4, SOC, 900 francs
tho purchase supposed to be on ac-
count of the ex-Queen of Spain. The
furniture and wines were reserved by
the heirs. These last have been re-
Gently sold at public auction at fabu-
lous prices. The cellar was the richest
in Europe, and contained wines Of
every vintage from 1897 to 1854. The
prices varied from 10 francs bottle to
l2l francs; those of 1sll-a famous
year-reaching the latter figure. They
were bought by hotel keeper at Bor-
deaux. who Will probably dispose OF
ten millions OF bottles as of that vim
tage, though there were only 81 barrels
of 22S litreS. The next highest on the
list were the wines of 1913, which
brought 65 francs a bottle. The next,
1928, which brought 60 francs.
There are few greater humbugs In
this world than that connected with
wines. Some people pretend that they
can tell one vintage from another;
whether the grapes grew on. a northern
or southern slope; and then there il a
world of stuff about bouquet and dry
and rich, and what not. No doubt there
is difference in wines, and some peo-
pie have more discriminating tastes
than Others-as witness Sancho Pan
Za's ancestors. But chemicals have
come to play SO important q part in
wine fabrication, that the wariest faster
would do we'll to distrust his Judgment,
and content himself with a beverage
which makes him jolly without ma
king him sick.
