The talk of nominating Depew for
President is simply INDUCED in, it would
seem, to fill the news columns of some
papers. Mr.. Depew is unquestionably
a splendid after dinner talker, an inter-
esting gentleman and shrewd business
man. But the fact that he is at the head
of great railway corporation precludes
him from possible consideration by the
Republican party. While engaged in
operating railroads, he will not be called
upon to administer the affairs of govern
ment. 1t would not do, You know.

Danger Of Barb Fences.
Country Gentlemen.


Notwithstanding the several simple means for
preventing injury to horses and other farm ami
mails from bArb-wire fences, we are repeatedly
hearing of severe Injuries inflicted by these
fences. In all cases, SO far as We have heard.
the injury has come from the fences made
wholly Of the barb wires. Where bitches and
banks have been made at the bottom of the
fence, or a rip-rap wall Of cobble-stenes q foot
or two high has been placed beneath the wires.
in the manner we have repeatedly recon-.
mended, not a single accident has occurred
within our knowledge.
Some persons have strongly advocated the
prohibition. by law, Of al barb-wire fences next
to neighbors or along highways. to prevent the
many accidents which frequently occur. but no
general law of this kind can be passed 90 long
as farmers md these fences 90 much cheaper,
more efficient and more durable than any orher
farm fence that can DO constructed. IL would
be equally impossible 70 prohibit che running OF
railway trains on account of the disasters which
often occur from them. All that ia necessary Is
to adopt the simple and cheap remedies recon-
mended, among which the cart n bank and double
ditch is capable of nearly universal application,
ard which has some advantages in chespness
of construction in addition to the protection it
affords.

INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. IL.
Inquiry in the several branches OF business
shows that the volume OF trade is fully up to
the usual October average, and in some depart
msnts it IS running ahead of last year. The
dry goods men, for instance, state that their
October business is looming up nicely, and a
marked increase over that of the corresponding
period of 1887 is noticeable. Grocers report
their trade fully as good, if not a little better,
than last year, with prices ruling strong. Sugars
have again taken on a frmer tone, no:withstand
ing the fact that the distribution Is rot as large
as g month ago. On reports from the producing
countries. ~cofees have worked into a very strong
position. but how long it can be maintained is q
problem. Grocers admit that its price is too
high TO be healthy and long kept NJ. Canned
goods have Quoted down, and the range OF
prices Is likely to be q little below that of last
year. Lemons are dull, and With the light do
msnd, prices range low. Oranges are still in
light supply, the Louisiana stock being hardly
