We are indeed aware that Messrs.

and other stationery houses in Indi-
annapolis, are in the habit of bestow-

making them small presents of gold

million a week, is hailed with much
satisfaction by the business public.
These bonds will not go into the

this operation an equal amount OF

We are informed by the Ledger
that the New Albany and st. Louis
Air Line Railroad has employed Hon.
John Nj. Wilson, one OF the most elO
duent orators Of Indiana, to go over
the line Of their proposed road and
discuss its advantages to the people.
The only way to divert the surplus
capital Of Gibson County from being
invested In that road Is to p1sh for
ward the Straight Iine.-EUanSUitte
Courier.
If you think so you ought to pass
through the county aud be convinced
of your error. The people are enthu
siastic upon the subject of an east and
west road. and having been sWlndled
once BY the Straight Line enterprise
Ga north and south rOad) they will be
very careful not to be taken IN on it
again. There is something about the
New Albany and ST. Louis Railroad
movement that is plausible and cap
tivating, backed by moral certainty
that it will be built.-E'rincet0n Ga
rioR.
The idea that the people of Gibson
County are more interested in an
East and West road than any other, is
principally entertained about Prince
ton. The Clarion says the New Al
bany and st. Louis Road is backed
by moral certainty that it will be
built" We do not know what it re-
CARDS as a moral certainty, or how
much moral certainties contribute
towards constructing railroads. We
are very sure it is not backed by a
financial certainty. The people in the
northeast part of the county DOM
altogether endorse the idea. They
wouldn't object to another Northern
and Southern connection.

THE Fort Wayne Gazette says we
take exception to the fact that Fort
Wayne is the second city in the State.
The Gazette is mistaken. We took
exception to its statement, to the
effect that Fort Wayne was the second
city in the State, because the state
meut was not the fact-a distinction
NTH difference. We are not sur
prised that the Gazette should not
quote us correctly, when its blunders
as to the relative populations ofthe two
cities are so palpable. The Gazette
don't like the evidence which we pro
duce, showing the population of the
two cities. We don't find fault with
it on that account. The evidence to it
is of an unpleasant character, but
nevertheless conclusive. As for the
importation Of voters, double voting
and all that, if any city on this CONT
nent can beat Fort Wayne, in proper
ton to population, we have yet to
hear Of it. Our reading of the Gazette
has long since convinced US that from
twenty-five to thirty three per cent. of
the votes cast in that city are usually

the Gazette, to talk about good ferry

railroad communications of which it
boasts so loudly. We are content to
await the next census returns, pro-
vided the Gazette don't get the
same man to take the census who
made the last return of children
for school purposes. He is an arith-
netician of such experiences that,
like Captain SCoTT's coon, we would
have to come down the minute we
heard of his appointment. So expert
is he that the Superintendent of Pub
lie instruction ought to make his
acquaintance land ascertain how it is

of children out Of so small a popula-
ton. 1t is a problem In which every
