farmer who is for John J. Ingalls, in our district

Humboldt, Allen county, and farmer, said

"FdrmeTn in Moran Herald: We
had the pleasure of attending the re-
ception to Hon. E. II. Funston last
Saturday night at the Opera House at
lola, and we came home feeling more
confident than ever that he lis the right
kind of a representative for this dis
trict, and should be reelected by all
means. In his speech he told his audi
ence the plain facts of the national
bank system, and of the manybills that
Congress has passed and that too, by a
small Republican majority. Mr.. Scott,
of the lola REGISTER, also made one
of the most enthusiastic Republican
speeches we ever listened to; and Mr..
Browns speech was loyal and inter-
esting. The ladies' band of Humboldt
furnished the music, which was well
rendered, and judging from the large
concourse of people present, we con-
clude that the Republican party is still
prospecting. And why shouldn't it,
standing on the solid platform that it
does?
ID. e. EdUdrds: Talking about
farmers having harder time now
than they ever had before, 1 remem-
Der that i'm 1860 1 was OH farm 20
miles from Buffalo, n. Y. I hauled
potatoes to Buffalo that year and
peddled them on the streets for 20
cents bushel. I sold the finest kind
of fat cows to the butchers of Buffalo
for So and SIS a head. My father
had a mortgage of $500 on his farm
and it took the very closest manage
ment one year after another to keep
the interest paid. When the princi-
pal came due he had to sell part of
the farm at SO an acre to pay it.
And that farm was within 20 miles of
Buffalo, n. Y.
Two years ago a Lacquer in Salem
township bought the claim he had
been living on for $1,000 paying 500
cash and giving mortgage for the
balance. One day this week he was
in town and said to one of his friends,
"Well, I made enough off my farm
this year to pay for it, and so the
other day I bought the 100 adjoining
me-" If any apostle of affiiction who
spends his days and nights bewailing
the downtrodden condition of the
farmer, wants the mans name it will
be furnished him on application at
this office.
Moran Herald: Married at the res
idence of the brides parents, Mr.. and
Mrs. J. HI. Cofman, on the the even
ing of Wednesday, the Sth inst, by
Elder Henry Martin, Mr.. Marion Lee
and Miss May Coffman. The bride
and groom are both well known young
people of this vicinity, and they have
many friends who extend to them
their warmest congratulations. They
will commence housekeeping immed-
lately ON the farm of the groOm's faith
or, about mile southeast of town.
We trust our readers will pardon us
If they find something of surfeit of
politics in the REGISTER during the
next two or three weeks. Nobody
seems to be saying anything or think
ing anything but politics and nothing
seems to be happening except politics,
go it hardly seems possible to get any
with us till the cruel war is over.
AS our friends, the People, would
say in their advertisements, the
picnic at the Grove tomorrow
g to be a strictly "non-parti-
san" Republican meeting. Every
body is cordially invited TO attend
and hear the political issues ably dis
cussed from non-partisan, non
political Republican stand point.
