Indiana a Democratic state. As q leader
Mr.. Brigh: was bold and aggressive, pever
hesitating to measure swords with any
chieitain who crossed his pathway, be he
highlander or lowlander. There was a
magnetism about him which drew men to
him and the Old Guard ofNspoleon were
not more devoted to the first emperor than
were the Indiana Democracy quarter of a
century ago to Jesse d. Bright. After
many years of leadership he lost his hold
upon his party, and was retired to private
life, but many of the old guard grieyed at
the necessity of putting him away, even as
Rachel grieved for her children. He died
In a distant state, and now sleeps near
the blue waters of the Pstspsco but those
who knew him when he was the
leading man in Indiana will re-
greet that his remains do not rest In thes' al
of the state which so often and 30 onO
honored him with her confidence a ID sun.

Contemporary with Mr.. Br,gb.. 4 vss Joseph
A. Wright. He was equall,y popular with
the mass %, but not so s,troug with the
leaders of his party as Ills great rival. He
Lacked Mr. Bright's free of character and
ability to influence and control others, but

remains of both these men should rest in
Indiana. The state which so often con-
fded her interests to their keeping, and
whose civil service was honorsd by them
has a right to demand that their bones
should mingle with her dust and
their monuments be erected on her soil.

A Chicago landlord rented town lot 20
an aged couple, who built house upon
it. Things went on well enough until
hard times set in, when the old folks
found out that they owed twenty-three
dollars rent, with only eight dollars to
pay the bill. This they paid over, when no
sooner done than the owner of the land
pounced upon them, and for the balance,
fifteen dollars, turned them upon the
street. No wonder fire and wind, and hail
and mortgages, two mayors and the devil
to boot are DESTROYING the CITY.

The Black Hills country is probably one
of the biggest sells of the century. There
is little gold, and that is hard to find. H.
dams are numerous, and all have gone
into the scslping business. A mans life
Is not worth nickle in any well regulated
insurance company. Sitting Bull is stak-
ing out grave yards all around the diggigns,
and almost every day some skulking saw
age furnishes candidate for burial. But
the reople continue to go. The humbug
has been exposed time and sgain. Those
who disregard the warnings ought to have
trouble

while GOV. Hayes. with the same per

made Il very small estimate of the val
NE at his watches. although one WIS
alone worth $500. Third. that he ha,
never returned his piano. although he
OWNS very handsome one. Fourth.
that he returned in $50 and 1876 three
horses At $500, when they were worth
$500. Fifth. that he returned four
carriages AT $50, when il is known
that he paid $500 for one and $50 for
another. SIKH, that S:f}.7O was left

that he made no returns of the proper

OF the scores of students who every
