The Plymouth Republican is now
published by J. W. Siders & Co., Wal
ter Piper having retired. The paper
is one of the best in this part OF the
State.-Michi9an City Enterprise.
Walter Piper has severed his con-
nection with the Plymouth Repubi-
can, the publication of which will be
continued by J. W. Sidefs & Co. The
Republican is an excellent paper
LaPorte Chronicle.
The Kokomo Dispatch intimates
that a Democrat OF that city worth
$4,000 sold his vote for one dollar
and fifty cents, and yet the Dispatch

the country.
The Peru Sentinel is badly mis-
taken when it says that the Green
hackers OF Marshall county helped
the Republican ticket. The Demo
cratic majority in this county would
have been at least 200 less IL there had
been no Greenback ticket in the field.
The Albion Nelo Era which has
heretofore been independent in poll
tics, will hereafter be an earnest ad-
vocate Of Republican principles, be-
lieving that the best interests Of the
country demand that the Republican
party should be kept in power. The
NelC Era is enc Of our best exchanges.
Walter Piper has severed his con-
nection with the Plymouth RepubH-
can, and the paper Is now edited by
Mr.. Siders, his former partner. Messrs.
Siders & Piper, during their brief
ownership of that paper have made
many decided improvements in it,
and the Republicans OF Marshall
county now have an organ of which
they may we'll feel proud.-Albion

pace, and attempted to turn his horse
out OF the road, but before he could
do so collision took place, a shaft
OF the buggy drawn by the running
horse striking his horse in the breast
and penetrating to the depth OF about
six inches, killing the horse almost
The parties who were do
ing the reckless driving compromised
with Mr.. Thomas by paying hin one
hundred and ten dollars.
On Sunday a number of hands,
with an engine and pile driver. were
driving the piling for the
new l., P. & G. Railway bridge across
Yellow river. AS usual, about thirty
boys were present, seeing the work
done and climbing over the engine
and tender, and everywhere else they
ought not to have been, and large
chunk of coal fell on the head OF a
twelve year old son of Geo. Miller,
who resides in the west part OF town,
cutting fearful cash and inficting a
serious, but probably not dangerous
wound. 1t is strange that we have
no: had fatal accident ere this, when
we consider the recklessness with
which our boys climb on and over en-
gines and moving trains.
The temperance meetings last
week conducted by Jack Wauberton,
