make good all the losses by these different
agents that it does in the present mode OF
insuring. Another nice thing about it is,
the insured will always know that the COM
pany is good. This is not the case with many
companies, or has not been in the years past.
The plates of number of worthless ones are
cacked on the barns and houses over the
tountry. There are many good, sub
stantial companies. 1 presume most of
them are. But take the substantial farmers
mechanics and business men of township
or locality, all known by all, and the sound
ness of such a company cannot be ques-
toned. What have written is merely sug-
eestive. l think the time is not distant
when some such plan will be adopted. Each
neghborhood or community should take care
of itself in this regard. If a man is pros
trated by FIRE or storm, his neighbors should
lift him up. All alike are exposed to fire,
lightning and storm. When losses come,
let them De mutually borne, and they will
press heavily on none.
In talking with some of the business men
of the township since writing the above, who
have the best opportunities to know, they
say that ten times as much has been paid out
for insurance in the township as has been re-
turned to cover losses. This is, no doubt,
true of many other localities. 1. NC

Good News from Texas.

Mr. THOMAS A. HOWARD. of Honey Grove,
Fannin county, Tex, under date of April 8, 1888,
writes of follows;
81 have been suffering during several yeGrs
from severe illness, and general breaking down
of my physical system, and have tried the treat
ment and prescriptions of many doctors far and
near, and travelled to the Hot Springs and other
mineral springs famous for their remedial quail
ties. drinking the waters and bathing systemat
ically in their healing depths, but all to no
avail, as steadily failedin health; and although
informed by my physicians that my ailments
and weakness were the result of kidney disease
of a dangerous character, they could give me
nothing to cure me. During the past two years
my suffering at times were dreadful and had
the most understandable pains in the regions
about the Kidneys, the paroxysms of which we're
so severe to render it impossible for me to
sleep. While in this deplOrable and discouraged
condition was persuaded TO try Hunts Rem
edy. and after using less than half bottle my
great suffering and paroxysms of pain were en-
tirely relieved, and could sleep better and long
er than had in two years before, and although
ment is very remarkable, and regret that did
not know of the wonderful curative powers of
Hunts Remedy before, as it would have saved
me years of suffering heartily recommend it
to all afflicted with any kidney disease disease
of the urinary organs"

Pilot (gentile) has already published a list
of these nominees. We are somewhat curl
GUS to see how nearly correct the list may
be. There is no doubt at all that the ticket
is all made up beforehand and that all the
convention really does is to ratify. And yet
it is called the Peoples party, and the
hierarchy in Utah boasts of popular tree
dom!
Your readers have, of course, seen the
printed interview with Colonel G. L. God
frey, member of the Utah commission.
There are in it two most singular statements.
Colonel Godfrey says:
THE power of naming officials has hereto
fore rested with the church as a whole, but
when the law is enforced so that no polyga-
mist can vote, the voting class will determine
the candidates, to the exclusion of those who
fail to conform to the letter and spirit of the
law. This of itself will ultimately break up
polyeamy"
Now he certainly knows, or ought to know,
that no man has any possible chance tor
political preferment at the hands of the Nor
mons, except as he is named by the church
officials, four-fiftl Of whom are polygamists,
and unless they know he will do the bidding
of the polygamists Again, the Judge says:
Railroads also accomplished much in this
direction. With railroads opening up the
country thousands of gentiles pour in who
will speedily outnumber the Mormons and
get possession of the municipal offices which
are now held by Mormons."
Now he certainly knows, or ought TO know,
that the bringing in of gentiles enough to
outnumber the Mormons is simply an i'm
possibility. The Colonel has said some good
things, but these statements, and others Of
similar character by other public men, sim
ply show that our political leaders have much
to learn of the situation of affairs in U tan.

Ben. Buffers Courage.


Gaths Gossip.
David NJ. Hildreth kept the st. Charles
that city in 1862 Though a native of New
Hampshire, Mr.. Hildreth, then young man
and his children born in New Orleans, felt
somewhat with his neighbors on the armed
invasion of his adopted State, and being a
favPrite there as here, ne saw much of the
Confederate leaders. He said to me a few
days ago: 81 nave good deal of respect for
Ben. Buffers moral courage. Everybody in
New Orleans expected that he would be
killed, and on the occasion of the funeral of
young rebel who had been killed at Baton
Rouge monster procession was gotten up.

The TconocIast,s Obscenitx.

To the Editor of the indianapolis journal:
1t is with feeling of justice to myself that
now take the liberty to repel the attack
made in the Journal OF Friday last on the
Iconoclast, under the head of "a Welcome
Announcement" The writer of the article
to which refer says: THAT obscene sheet,
the Iconoclast, which for five weeks has
reeked with the foulest filth, is not likely to
appear tomorrow" Now, that the
Iconoclast is an 'obscene sheet" 1 most
fatty deny. 1t has done no more than to
hunt up crime in this city and publish it to
the world. If to do that is obscene, then the
Iconoclast is an obScence sheet, otherwise it
is not. As the editor of the Iconoclast l
have faithfully done no more than l consid-
cred to be my duty. The articles which
have appeared in the Iconoclast entitled
indianapolis by Gaslight" have been writ
ten and published with the intention of
showing up some OF the misdoings of
Indianapolis and if possible TO
point out a remedy against them.
l have many faults, but cowardce is not one
of them propose to go ahead, in the even
tenor of my way, unmindful of what the
press of this city may say. The Iconoclast
will in the future be printed i'll Cincinnati
and sent to this city for sale and for mailing
to my subscribers. 1t will not be secreteIy
conveyed here either, The superintendent
of police of this city, if he has any desire to
seize the Iconoclast; can do Sd by going to
the express office in this city next Friday.
Five thousand copies of the paper will be in
indianapolis on that day, and will be sold on
the streets next Saturday, and if it proves to
be an obscene paper it may be the duty of
the superintendent of police to seize it, and
confiscate it. But, I do not think he will
dare to undertake the job without first know

Ieonoclast is ever seized and contiscated in
this city am very certain that the seizure
and confiscation will be done i'll strict accord

Iconoelast is ever suppressed in this city, it
will be done in legal manner and in no
other way. | am willing to submit to the

Sister dear, thou art uncharitable in

controlling all her acts, keeping her as q
