10000 Majority.

The result of the late election is as fol
lows: For Congressmen-at-L Large, God
love S. Orth has 1,I74 majority, and Will
ham S. Williams has !, Ala majority. For
Lieutenant Governor, Leonidas Sexton
has 1873; W. W. Curry for Secretary OF
State, 1888; J. A. Wildman, for Auditor,
1924 and j. B. Glover, for Treasurer
1920. These are all Republicans.
Hendricks, for Governor, has a majority
OF s94, and Milton B. Hopkins, Demo
GRAFT, for Superintendent of Public In
struction, appears to be reelected by a
small majority. The Legislature will
stand: Senate, Republicans 81, Demo

Gratis 46. Republican majority on joint
ballot, r. The Republican majority in
the Congressional district elections is
about 1000.
The above results on the State ticket
are given by official returns from 7S
counties, and semi official advices from
the remaining Is counties The final of
fetal returns from the latter may slightly
vary the results, but not materially. The
State is thus seen to be Republican, not
only by the average majority on the State
ticket, but also on the Congressional

The Lady in tears, distressed for the loss
of her purse, was on an eastern bound tram
Saturday morning. When the conductor
called for her ticket it was gone A
thorough search failed to find the lost
ticket, and with the ticket, the purse had
also disappeared. Conductor was sorry,
the lady was almost distracted She was
going to Pennsylvania with her little girl
and lady friend. They lived in Penn
sylvania. Had been to Valparaiso on a
visit There was not very large sum of
money In the purse: but the situation
was very disagreeable strangers
without money She had not been used
to that, and did not know what to do but
weep. A gentleman on the train from
Valparaiso, heard the conversation be-
tween the lady and conductor, and had
something consoling to say. He saw the
lady buy her ticket and lay her purse,
ticket, and all on the Coulter, where he
had no doubt she left them At Wanatah
the conductor, who proved himself to
be gentleman, telegraphed the situation
to Valparaiso, snd instantly the word
came back-"All right, money and ticket,
safe. Will send them to Ft Wayne,
this evening The lady to stop
over Sunday at Fl. Wayne; SO she was
happy again, and all who knew the circum-
stances felt much more comfortable. We
could not help thinking it was a forum
ate circumstance for the lady that her
p rise fell into the hands of honest Indi
anianS.

An Apology.

About the hardest job, editorially, we
using the pen and scissors in Plymouth
is now before us; an that is to answer
our longtime acquaintance and esteemed
friend, Daniel Mcdonald, ESQ, Sec. of
the Marshall County Agricultural Asso-
citation. He charges us in the Democrat
of last week with-something-w hard
ly know what to call it. He thinks we
have charged him with nepotism; but We
have not In fact we have never enter
tanned the slightest feeling of envy, ha-
tired, or malice, against him. and we have
certainly never given utterance to any
such sentiments Since we have had con-
troll of the REPUBLICAN We have never
seen anything in it which could be con-
sidered tn the slightest degree damaging
| to his reputation as a gentleman or pub
lie officer. What may have been said of
Mr.. Mcdonald before we had charge OF
| acknowledge no responsibility for.
We did say, the week after the Agri-
cultural fair, when it could in no way in
jure the Association, that the Marshall
County Agricultural Association showed
no favor to the Marshall County Repub-
lican this year"-a fact which Mr.. Nc
Donald cannot deny
We are led to believe, now, that we
were mistaken about the political cast
of the officers having had any thing to do
with the printing, although Mr. Melon
aid is mistaken when he says "a majority
of the board of directors are republicans.
We care but little about what caused the
Democrat to get all the printing, and
should have said nothing about il had we
not considered il our privilege and our
dnty to assert our claims to the patronage
which should be given us.
Agricultural Associations, as we'll as
Others created and sust lined by the public,
generally desire the good will and assist
ance Of the press. Why the officers If
the Marshall County Agricultural Asso
clallon nave not acted upon this principle
is best known to themselves, and We
shall not take the trouble to- inquire the
cause. Neither shall we undertake TO
account for the publication in the DeDo-
crat last week, of a meeting of the stock :
holders for the purpose of electing direc
tors, when no such notice appeared in the
Republican.
The meeting was called for last Mon
day; but, for want of quorum, did no
business; and we are told, mot officially
that the meeting was adjourned to meet
two weeks from that day.
These things can be easily explained, no
doubt; but we are apologizing, not eX
planning, now.

The Farmers Club.

Some time ago, the farmers in the east
ern part of this county and the western
part of Kosciusko, organized a club, held
periodical meetings, discussed various
subjects, and on last Saturday held fair
at the new school house about mile and
a half east of Bourbon. But two or three
days general notice had been given, and
but one day devoted to the fair
The exhibition was astonishing. There
were several hundred entries, and all
were meritorious. The field and garden
products Except wheat) were eXtraorGi-
nary. The entries on wheat. barley, buck
wheat and oats, were not numerous, but
were superior; of every other kind in
those classes the entries were very nu-
merous, and of the very best quality.
The exhibition of apples and pears, in po-
tatoes, cabbages, radishes, beets, onions,
turnips, carrots, kali, and other vegeta-
bies, In honey, syrup, preserves, pickles,
and in cakes and bread, and butter, was of
very superior character, and would have
done credit to any state fair. The corn
was equal to anything ever exhibited. In
fowls there was good show, but the
boxes were, as usual, unfit to exhibit them
in. Exhibitors would make money by
building large comfortable coops for the
exhibition of fowls-of light material and
SO as to admit of mooving about and sit
ting on perch.
There was a fine show of bed quilts,
and other specimens of needle work very
creditable indeed One spread, made of
silk showed an extraordinary amount of
labor and skill. There was a nice exhibit
ton of many other articles of domestic
manufacture; of millinery; some machin-
cry and wagons very fine collection of
swine; some good sheep; some fourteen
or more head of hlooded cattle, and seve-
raj fine horses. The exhibition of horses
was the best ever seen in the county.
There was blowing match, some trot-
ting on very good track, and goodly
number of people in attendance.
The exhibition was better than that
made at many county fairs, and was highly
honorable to the exhibitors and the club.
regret that am unable to give the names
of exhibitors and officers; but no data
was given me mol had 1 opportunity to
learn the particular facts. l Gan safely
say that the show was such as to astonish
all who came, and one of which the peo-
pie there may justly feel proud.

localities in the county, and then united
