Personal.

Personal.
Many of the good people of Plym-
Outh visited our sanctum during the
FIRST week and gave us words of
sympathy and encouragement.
Being stranger here and hurried in
getting our paper out, we cannot re-
member many OF the names. To
each and every one we say thank
you, and you have the best wishes of
THE REPUBLICAN, for your future
prosperity and happiness.
Our first new subscriber is James
Green, the drayman, who has one Of
the best teams, and hauls the biggest
loads of any man in Northern Indi-
ana. He said, II believe you will try
to give us good paper and 1 want
it." He will get it.
But Mr.. Green is not the first man
that paid for the paper under the
new management; that honor be-
longs to Mr.. John Jacoby, of Center
township, who came in last Thurs
day morning and laid two dollar
greenback On our table. Such kind
ness is fully appreciated, and on
looking over our books and seeing
the number of Jacoby's who are SUBJ
scribers, we thought il there were a
hundred more such families in Mar
shall county the Democrats would
not elect their ticket next October.
Then comes Mr.. Bentz, another
workingman, and gives us substanti-
al encouragement. Hirom Shafer
was our second subscriber, $500 in
advance, and for year THE REPUB-
LIcAN will each week gladden. him
with the news.
Next comes J. w. Parks. a promi-
nent lawyer, and good honest Re-
publican OF this city.-a man who be-
lieves in doing as we'll as talking for
not only did he give us kind words,
but also, some OF Uncle Sans "lying
promises to pay" an act which we
can fully appreciate.
t. F. Houghton who sells his gro
ceries cheap puts his subscription a
year ahead; and now comes jolly G..
W. Wright who calls himself the "old
man" and says "we are the boys" and
he too changes the figures on our
list from rs to 70.
Here comes M. Swyhart and says
"here's some money. send the paper
to Samuel Swyhart, at Teegarden,
Samuel is boy; his father says he
guesses he won't take the paper, but
Samuel says, Il guess I will, I must
have it." And we say keep yourself
posted Samuel and when you are old
enough to vote, you will know
enough to vote intelligently.
Saturday last came Elisha Shaffer,
OF Argos, and the result is we are two
dollars richer than formerly. Mr..
Shaffer is contemplating moving to
Illinois. near Joliet.
Mr.. Frederick Wagg, OF Argos. a
man who understands blacksmithing
in every department called upon us
last Friday and materially assisted us
by giving us a job Of letter heads
come again Fred.
Just before closing the Office Sat
urday evening. Bud Mattingly, who
helps to make the Borubon Miro,
one Of the best papers in this part Of
the State, steps in. and welcomes us
to Marshall county. and to show that
he means what he says, subscribes
for the paper which he sends to his
sister in Canada. Come again Mr.
Mattingly.
We would not forget Levi Wenner
for whom we did our first job oil
printing, and for which we received
the cash. Mr.. Wenner will always
find the latch string out.

firm Of Kraus Bros, Familiarity known
as Little Mack, firm that sell:
stacks OF goods. and who know that
it pays to advertise in THE REPUBLI
CAN. called last week, and proved O
