Marshall County Republican. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1856-1878, 1878-03-28

VIM. Dinsmore, who lives near
Maxenkuckee, has read the REPUBLI-
CAN for twenty years, and never for
gets on what day his subscription
expires. Such man could not be
anything else than n Republican, and
a first class citizen. He was in Fri
day, and the date of his subscription
changed to March 70.
S. X. Hampton. who recently sold
his farm four and a half miles
southwest of Plymouth, renewed his
subscription Friday, and we changed
HIS address to Lafayette, his future
residence being two and a half miles
from that place. We are sorry to
lose such men from our county, but
wish him success In his new home.
r.. Gerard, of Inwood, is another
old subscriber, made just such call
as our old subscribers have been
doing very frequently OF late, and
just such call rs we would like
to have from every Republican and
Democrat in Marshall county. The
old subscribers of the REPUBLICAN are
morally and socially, equal to any
other men in America. and as we
said before Gerard is one OF them.
Not far from the enterprising viii
lage of Argos, resides lady who is
known as Mrs. Mary A. Rule. Last
week she ordered her paper discon-
tinued; but unlike most Of men who
stop their papers she asked how
much she was in arrears, saying that
she wished to pay whatever she
owed. We knew that woman was
honest, and with a feeling Of sadness
we erased her name from the SUBJ
scription book, and forwarded her |
account for one dollar, to her at Ar
gos. Monday we received a letter in |
which she said: II send two dollars. |
One will pay what 1 owe; for the
other send the REPUBLICAN six months
longer" If any one thinks that Mrs. |
Rule is not sensible, christian wo-
man, the REPUBLICAN informs them
that they are mistaken.
Among our callers Saturday were
two of the best Republicans in Mar
shall county, w. w. Fl. Stoner and
L. A Blassingham, OF Inwood. Our
readers In Center township will have
the privilege of voting for one Of
them next Monday.
A very modest young man, prin-
ter y-the-way, came into the Office
late Saturday evening and set the
figures opposite his name, a year
ahead, but said that he did not wish
US to mention his name in the per-
sonal column. OF course we shall |
not, but ID. b. Langenbaugh always
pays for his paper.
II. e. Overmeyer, OF Union town
ship, one OF our sensible, solid, sound,
Republicans, a farmer, school teacher
and preacher-a man who works for
the elevation of society in every pos
sible way, entered his names as a
new subscriber Monday.
Tuesday morning B. d. Crawford,
who the Plymouth Democrat says is
a candidate for the nomination of
Prosecuting attorney, for the dis
trict composed OF this county and
Fulton, came in and set his subscrip-
ton ahead. Mr.. Crawford is Demo-
crat, and in our opinion entirely
wrong in his political views. Yet his
courtesy in business transactions,
and his energy displayed in working
alternately at his trade and profess
sion, indicates the qualities which
lead TO success in life, and il a
Democrat from Plymouth or any
where else be chosen we certainly
would have no objection to Mr.. G.
s. ID. Holley and ]. N. Hess, of Ar
gos, both as good men as can be
found in this, or any other county,
paid US visit Tuesday, that you can
bet did not leave us any pooer. One |
Of these men will un doubtedly be the
next Justice of the Peace of Walnut,
for the boys all like Holley.
Prof. A. NJ. Ward, who is the pres
ent assistant Sup't., OF schools In
Plymouth, called on US Wednesday.
The Prof. is first class teacher, and
a gentleman in every respect. He
never is in arrears for the paper, and
he set the figures ahead Wednesday,
just as he always does when the
time expires. Our citizens will be
glad TO learn that he and his family
will take up their residence in Plym-
outh to-day.
Ira Buck has returned from his
Western tour, and is SO much pleased
with travelling that he contemplates
going again.
Just before going to press, W. c.
Peacock, of LaPaz, walked into our
Office with a greenback In his hand
and said: 81 believe my time is up"
An examination Of the books showed
that he was just three days ahead of
time. He renewed for his own paper,
and then said: 81 want my brother
at HarrisonviIle, to see your paper,
so here's the money to send it to him
three months, and .hen perhaps he
will want it longer. Readers, don't
sou know that we wished just then
that there were thousand or more
