Marshall County independent. (Plymouth, Marshall County, Ind.) 1894-1895, 1895-03-29

South Dakota ard all the Ne.. England
states. This is a large territory to
cover, and Mr.. Welch expects to locate
not less than fifty drink cures in the
above mentioned states the next two
years. His many friends here wish
him success"
No community can have better adj
vertlsement than a newspaper well
patronized. Every store in town is a
local business enterprise, and so is the
local paper. This we say, nOtwithstand-
ing the fact that SO many people seem
to think that newspapers are being run
merely for the fun there is in the thing.
We see by the record that ex-senator
Charles Reeves, of our city, has had the
honor conferred upon him, by receiving
a request to prepare one or more papers
on the subject of "PrisOn Reform" a
subject that will be discussed before the
international prison congress, which
will be held in Paris, France, next June.
1t is stated that a farmer who re-
sides near Rochester, and who was in
numbered with eight manageable
daughters, advertised the fact. 1t was
but short time until he received the
following telegram: Am a bachelor
and wealthy; will gladly marry one of
your daughters. Send sample at once"
The Plymouth Republican said last
week: -Four unsolicited subscribers
were received in one day. The people
appreciate a good paper" That is
nothing to compare with the INDIE
PENDENT. We have received nearly
400 unsolicited subscribers in five
months. The people appreciate good
paper.
When you see the small boy with
dirty knuckles playing "mibsH on the
railroad or any smooth place in the
street then is the time to bring forth
your garden seeds and tickle the soil
with your spade and hoe, for spring is
near at hand, when you may exercise
yourself in raising $50 worth of vege-
tables with so worth of labor.

Claude RansbottOm and Walter Osler
were taken to Michigan City, Monday
noon to serve out their sentences, which
are twelve years and one year respec-
lively. On good behavior Claude Rams
bottom can get out in seven years and
ten months and Walter Ostler in eleven
months. Claude was placed in the shoe
department and Walter in the cooper
shop.
Our friend, John Nichols, who has
for some time past lived on the banks
of the beautiful Twin Lakes, has de-
cided to retire from the active pursuits
of farmers life. He has purchased
the entire stock of merchandise owned
by Ed. Belden, of Twin Lakes, and will
take possession next Tuesday. Mr..
Nichols is quite hustler and we pre-
dict for him successful future.
The editor of the Etna Green News,
in our estimation, takes the biscuit
In last weeks article he spreads himself
on the life of the doctor, the preacher
and the editor. He crews very poetic
when referring TO the woes of the
editor, but when he speaks in a pathetic
vein about the abbreviated" elm wood
received on subscriptions, the fraternity
might just as well give it up. He de-
serves the palm.
The Walkerton Independent has be-
gun to agitate the forming of business
mems association in that place. That
is right, Brother Endley. Any commu-
nifty that desires TO reap the benefits
that are flying around these times, needs
to be organized and move quickly. Why
there are people in this world SO far be-
hind the times -yes, and communities
too-that when Gabriel blows the last
trump they will fail to fail in line for
fear it is new scheme to secure money
for some legitimate purpose.
