INwooD, Aug 18th. 1876.
Last Sunday was said to have
been the hottest day of the summer.
Miss Libby Hull has been sick
for a number Of days with scarlet
rash.
We have had few nice showers
within the last week. just what the
farmers wanted for their corn.
Mr.. E. NJ. Bash is building a
paint shop in the rear OF Hull's
blacksmith shop.
Mr.. Grossvenor says he don't
think his other horse will kick the
buggy to pieces. ts
The dance last Friday night was
decidedly a thin affair, and we are
informed that king Alcohol was there
in full force

with the bereaved parents.
We now have floating picture
gallery and barber shop combined
All we want now, is few wagon
loads of gypsies to complete our me-
cessities.
The typo made us say in our la ST
that Ben. Norris, instead OF Rev. II.

Warsaw; also that Downey, instead
Of Rev. Downs, from Warsaw, lectured
here.
When we saw that nice pipe that
J. McHaster presented to David Hull
We almost wished that We also smok-
ed the weed, but there is no great
loss without some small gain. We
don't have to buy the tobacco.
MIR. Thomas Blossingham, who
lives two miles west from here, while
on his way here with load of wheat
last Friday, stopped to talk with
some men he met, and in starting his
team his little boy fell off the wagon
and the hind wheel of the wagon
passed over him. The little sufferer
was conveyed home, and Dr. Rider

contrary to nearly everybody's ex-

Gen. Ben. Harrison.

When Judge Orth was driven by
SANDER to decline the position tender
ed him by the Republican party of the
State, it was gloomy moment. Then
the public will of the party pointed I'M
mistakably to Gen. Harrison; but it
was not known that he would accept.
In the hope that under call. univer-
sal and pressing, he could be induced
to accept, the nomination was rendered
to him. AT once flood of enthusiasm
swept over the State exceeding any
thing witnessed since Morton was the
standard-bearer of the party. A refu-
sal to accept the nomination, under the
circumstances was impossible. He has
accepted; and our ticket is now full,
while the party stands in position for
wholly aggressive work, not a candidate
needing any defense, all of them inyul-
nerable against any charge that can be
brought against them. They all stand
free from the least faint of suspicion
even, from the candidatefor President
down to the last on the State ticket,
not one of them needing a single word
of defense. - as ...
Gen. Harrison is in the prime of life
and in the plenitude of his powers as a
man. He is grandson of Gen. w. III.
Harrison, who was the first governor
of the Indiana Territory, and after
wards President of the United States.
He is also the great grand son of Ben
jamin Harrison of Virginia, who was
one of the signers of the Declaration of
Independence, who was chairman of
the committee of the whole of the Con-
tinental congress when the Declaration
was brought before that body, and put
mention these things because this is
the Centennial year, but Ben Harrison
has far more than distinguished an
cestry of which to boast. He has his
own pure and unsullied manhood. He
is gifted with intellectual powers which
mark him as the peer of our greatest
men; and in moral integrity. he has no
superior. AS a lawyer he stands at the
head of the bar of the State, and is gift
ed with statesman-like and executive
ability in an eminent degree. His ar
my record is without blemish, and he is
besides, man of practical christianity;
he has been many years member of a
church in indianapolis, and in all res
poets has been true to the professions
which he has made. r4tl
The Republicans now present him to
the people of the State for Governor,
with pride in his many noble qualities
of head and of heart; and in the sure
expectation of victory under his lead.

few brief remarks from w. b. Per-
shing, the question was asked ~heth-
er it was best to organize a club at

Green, or to join the neighboring
clubs. The citizens present at once

The story of the murder of VIM. p.
Haffa, last Fall i'm Mississippi, because
he was born in the North, and was a
a Republican. reads like leaf out of
the history of the Thugs of India. He
was peaceable, quiet, inoffensive citi-
zen who went to Mississippi to obtain a
livelihood, but he was Republican,
and he and his wife were teaching a
colored school. His widow related the
cruel story to committee of the SEN
ate. His house was surrounded at
night, and he was murdered in the
presence of his wife and children. And
this is but one of scores and hundreds
of these political murders.

1t is fact, and it should be remem-

which for the 100000 population
then was 1891 per capita; and for the
year 1915, under Grant, deducting the
expenses entailed by the war, such as
interest and pensions, the expenses are

oloSs and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and badness often, Though not always,
cured by its use. Moth ng can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that a new
growth of hair is produced. Instead
of fouiing the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling od, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruff, which is often SO un-
Clearly and offensive. Free from those
deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.
