TO OUR PATRONS.

In assuming the publication of the MAR
SHALL COUNTY REPUBLICAN, it is fitting
that we make known to our readers what
our future course win be. First, then, we
meet you on the broad platform of friend
ship and goodwill. We claim our pat
rons as our fIienos, and shall always en-
deavor TO make the columns Of the Re-
PUBLICAN to them a source OF interest and
profit We are aware Of the importance
Of having a good, reliable family journal
in Marshall county, as well for the inter-
ests Of the citizens as for the reputation
of the County. The better the repute of
the County abroad the more will manu-
features increase and commerce be estab-
lished. An influx of trade must necessa-
rily augment the wealth of the County.
1t is the duty of every citizen to contrib
ute to the public good Of his community,
and with your assistance we intend to
make this journal representative of the
interests of Marshall County.
The REPUBLICAN win continue, as here
fofore, to advocate those great, liberal,
consistent principles upon which our Re-
publican Government is founded, which
preserved it against the assaults of treason
and rebellion, and which alone can pre-
servo It for ages to come. While it will
be consistent supporter of the Republi-
can party, it viii avoid partisanship in
any offensive shape, urging the adoption
Of such measures only as will contribute
the greatest good to the greatest num-

LIFES BATTLE.


The battle or life in a majority of cases
must necessarily be fought up hill. To
win the victory without struggle, would
be- to win II without honor. While diff
culties intimidate the weak, they act only
ly as stimulants to men OF energy and res
osution. A whining shiftlessness is abso-
luteIy despicablel
Upward evolutions are through effort.
Everything that grows, grasses, grains,
forests, push upward against the law OF
gravitation. The higher is attained only
through struggle. All the diverse expert
ences OF Lille serve TO demonstrate that
the impediments threwn in the way OF
individual advancement, may be overcome
by steady good conduct, honest convic-
tons, active perseverance, and q determ-
ined resolution to surmouut all difficulties,
and stand up manfully against all misfor-
tunes

OUR PLAN.

Believing the cash system to be the
best, we would impress upon our sub
scribers the importance of making ad-
vance payment. With this plan enforced
we shall obviate The necessity Of travelling
all over the county to collect small sums
falling due US. Subscribers may expect
to find this mark X opposite their names
when their time expires, and unless re-
newed such delinquents will be cut off.
Many receiving this notice may be, and
doubtless are, responsible, but that will
hot protect them from the operation o.
this memorable rule. We shall endeavor
to make this paper worth its price, and
with this view have dropped several col
umns of advertisements in order to pres
sent large amount of acceptable reading
matter. We shall separate business locals
from news Advertisers will find their
articles in column appropriately headed.
Cash only will be received from transient
advertisers, and that strictly in advance.
Communication will not be returned, but
subject to our disposition With these
rules we shall look for success

AFTER the Democratic members Of the
Legislature resigned the last time, the
remaining members passed what was
known as the "I5th Amendment" and
Specific Appropriation Act" The De-
mocracy throughout the county denounc-
ed this action of eaid remaining members
as unconstitutional. The supreme court
OF the State has just decided the specific
appropriation Act" TO be constitutional.
Hon. Samuel E. Perkins, a simon pure
Democrat, and for dozen years mem.
Der Of the court, made an unanswerable
argument in favor of the validity of the
last named bill. Senator Morton's argu>
ment published some time ago was sub
stantially the same rs judge Perkins as
far as they went.
Thus it will be seen the revolutionary
conduct of the resigned availed them
nothing. Are they resigned2

THE PUBLIC DEBTS OF THE Stair AN D
NATION are being rapidly reduced. The
State is nearly out of debt, and would be
so entirely if her creditors would accep,
the amounts due them. During the Dem
ocratic portion of johnson g administra-
ton the constant cry was, ''the public
debt is increasing" Since Grant has been
President the national debt has been re-
duced about thirty-six and half million
dollars. Si6,4iO.I32,54 were paid during
the month Of June. Quite satisfactory
showings.

GKrTysBURGH MONUMENT DEDICATION.
The recent dedication of the Soldier s
Monument at Gettysburgh was a great
affair. There are more of our noble sol>
diers sleeping at this cemetery than at
any other in the country. The occasion
was one of great solemnity and OF nation
al importance. Some of the great Repub>
lies most notable men were there We
speak particularly Of this dedication only
because Indiana was greatly honored in
the selection of the orator OF the day.
The Grafton was delivered by Senator
Morton, and it will repay careful peru>
sal. Meade, the great captain who gave
US the Gettysburgh victory, preceded
Senator Morton, and concluded by truly
ssying. "You are about to listen TO one of
the most eloquent men in this country"

The new court house will most likely

live again in the better thoughts of those
who loved it, and play its part though its
