Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1873-09-18

Our county fair will commence next
Wednesday, when there will probably be
a large number of visitors in town from
the country, and towns in this vicinity.
Our business men should take advantage
ct the occasion and advertise their wares.

Frank Adelbuch, aged about 40, wss
found dead near the corner of Yves, Lake
and Canal Street, in Chicago, about twelve
o'clock Tuesday night. He went from
Laporte to Chicago about week ago.
We would suggest The propriety of
those of our citizens who travel over the
country, spending little of their leisure
time in visiting our manufactures, that
they may be able to speak encouragingly
ofthem, when abroad.
AT least one-third of the tobacco crop
of Wisconsin was entirely destroyed by
the Frost last Sunday night. 1t was the
most destructive frost ever experienced in
that State, so early in the season.
1t is now thought that Prof. Wise
will not sail to Europe in the Graphic
balloon. The thing burst when it was
being inflated Lucky for all who were
fool-hardy enough to undertake the voy-
age.
SUICIDE p Freeman, city
Clerk of Fort Wayne, committed suicide
in that place; early last Sunday morning.
Intemperance vas his besetiing sin, which
caused his wife to.seek divorce from
him. His funeral was attended by the
Mayor and city council, and large num-
Der of friends on Monday
Benz. F. Butler, failed to sss the Re-
publican nomination for Governor of Mas
sachusetts, and the Democrats are unhap-
Ply. The only consolation they can get is,
by saying that Buffers deieat is defeat of
Grants administration. That will do:
but it is not near so much as they antici-
pated in Buffers success.
"A visit to Mr. Charles Smiths farm,
opposite the fair ground convinces us
that neither drouth nor cold weather has
operated against the crops, in this, vicini-
ty this year. Timely seeding and proper
cultivation, wherever applied, on good
soil, will produce good crops. Mr.. Smiths
corn is as large. completely filled. and well
npened as any we have ever seen on our
prairie land in the most favorable season.
We hope to add a large number os
names to our subscription list next week.
The REPUBLICAN is the largest and cheap
est newspaper in the county. If our peo-
pie want cheap reading they should en-
courage US in our efforts Remember we

the REPUBLICAN Show the paper to you
neighbor and tell him what our terms
are.
In speech upon the subject of edu-
cation, in the Nj. E. Conference at South
Bend, Bishop Simpson said: II want the
day to come when the women will vote
Without taeIr vote fear We will never be
able to put down the houses ofinfamy and
liquor saloons of our country. Nothing is
SD ruinous to our country. 1t is true, and
it is-my opiniont that we can't get along
without the women voting" 1T is not
good for man to be alone"
VISIT FAIRs.-The Chicago Inter Ocean
says of fairs: Take an interest in these
exhibitions, and let it be your fair and not
your neighbors' alone Take some ofyour
own products, and if you do not take a
premium you will take what is better, an
interest in the article exhibited. Much
can be learned at the fairs that will be USE
full. Exhibitors are generally fond of Civ
ing the benefit of their experience, and
your interest excites theirs. If you have
any new variety of fruit or vegetable take
1t with you, if you do not enter it for o
premium"
The REPUBLICAN does no printing
for the Marshall County Agricultural AS
ISOLATION, which the managers of that in
stitution propose to pay for. They give
it all to the Democrat without so much
as inviting bid from u.s. They have the
right to do as they please about it;
but as it is to be supported by the peo-
pie, irrespective of party, a didivision
of patronage among the newspapers,

long as it is conducted exclusively in the
interest of the Democrat
