Indiana Safely Republican.

Special to the India napcliS Journal.
WABASH, Ind, Oct. 1S.-Hon. James B.
Kenner, of Huntington, and Congressman
George W. Steele, of Marion, We're in the
city Saturday, returning from stamping
tours, and both of them declared that they
are satisfied from the personal knowledge
of conditions gained in their canvass that
Indiana will go Republican by a large ma
jority. Both have mixed freely with farm
erS and w~orkingmen and the labor vote is
very generally for Mckinley. After the
tour of Bryan across indian last week the
hopes of the Democracy were buoyed up,
but a strong reaction has set in. and the
Republicans everywhere are more confident
than ever. The efforts of the Democrats
to stampede the farmers has failed.

Golden Resolutions.

How many good resolutions are
broken during these January days.
As the midnight bells ring out the
old and ring in the new year, how
many thousands of penitent inebriates
promise themselves to lead better lives
and for weeks and days thereafter
struggle manfully against the tyrant
that runs riot through their veins.
Butfesh is weak and alcoholis strong
and as the days go by the craving for
drink becomes SO great that few of the
struggling thousands can resist it,
and, one by one. they fall hopelessly
INTO the old ways until another mile
stone shall give them pause. To the
weak but willing among us the Kelley
Institute Of South Carolina is a GOO
send. The gold cure is mot gold that
gljtters, but it shines like benedic-
ton in the faces of the liberated-the
free. Make, by all means, your good
resolutions, but back yourself with the
gold to be had only in South Carolina
at the kecley Institute in this city

PAY as You Co.

The farmer cannot succeed until he
learns to live on what he makes after
it is made, and not on what he ex-
pectsto make before it is made. Many
years ago, an economical, thrifty far
mer, was asked by q large cotton
planter, why it was that, though ne
was called poor farmer and made
much less to the hand than many of
his neighbors, ne was prospering,
while they, with all their broad acres
and heavy crops, were constantly fall
ing into debt and becoming embarrass-
ed. He replied: You begin at the
wrong end; you buy your supplies at
the beginning Of the year on credit, l
buy mine at the end for cash. This

Some Good Advice.

a prominent Southerner, now llv-
ing in New York, but still Interested
in the pros oerity Of our people, writes
to the Columbia State as follows:
II have noticed several of your ref
erences to cotton acreage this year. l
think that if you could urge upon the
farmers the importance Of short crop
this year it would be the greatest good
any one could do for the South. The
professional bears are simply wild
with delight and are looking for
grand bear campingn on account OF the
Increased mule and fertilizer sales.
English spinners are over 100000
bales short, but they think the South
will turn loose its spots if large area
is planted and that price will decline.
They are therefore doing their utmost
to break prices and make the South
turn loose its holdings" AS will be
seen by the above the immense trade
in mules and fertilizers is taken by the
cotton sharks as an indication that the
Southern farmers are going wild over
cotton planting again and they are
using tne arSument OF large ColCoA
crop as a reason for reducing the price
of cotton. They seem to think that
mules and fertilizers are only used in
the South for making cotton. Already
they have their agents throughout the
cotton belt reporting the prospect OF
an increased cotton acreage, and on
these reports they predict fall in the
price of cotton. We adhere to the
opiulon we have always held, that the
Southern farmer cannot afford to raise
cotton except as surplus crop, and
when he does that he can do so profit
ably even if the price goes down to
five cents. Let your first object be to
make plenty of meat and other home
supplies and then plant all the cotton
you can cultivate aad you will be
prosperous and happy.

The Cash l:uyer.

The man who always pays cash can
dictate prices within reasonable bound.
The merchant will not let him leave
his store, if the prices offered affords
any margin OF profit. The merchant
sees that there is no risk or trouble.
that he gets back the money invested
and a little profit, and gladly makes
sale al a price below what he could al
ford to make to the man who buys on
credit; the cash buyer pays fair price
for what he gets, but does not help
pay the worthless accounts OF others;
The buyer on credit has to. carry the
whole load. Many farmers are some
what N debt, and they say they must
buy on credit. They are the ones who
should not do so, even if others do.
1t is Jar better to 60 to a neighbor,
state the facts, and borrow the sum OF
money needed to put affairs on a cash
basis; the saving will amount to sew
eral times the interest paid on the
note. Then, too, there is a gain IN
other ways. Ones credit grows better
when little used, and there is escape
from the worry of being dunned for
little accounts. When it is understood
that man always pays cash for what
he buys, his opportunity to get what
he wants increases. Those needing
cash are quick to give him the refusal
of what they have to sell. The man
who drops the credit plan, borrows
the needed meney at fair rate Of in
terest, if he has no capital Of his own,
and then keeps accurate account OF the
expenditure of every dollar of 1t, I'M
proves his chance 10 success.
