A Receiver Appointed.

A petition was filed in the office OF the
clerk of courts Monday by G. Ell. Jones
asking that receiver be appointed fol
the firm of G.. III. Jones & Co. The petit
ton was granted as asked for and J. M
McKarahan was appointed.
MIR. Jones has taken this action as a
mode of protection for himself and his
creditors. AS is known, the partner in
the firm of g. III. Jones & Co. was the
firm of Randall Selby & Bell, of Des
Moines, now insovent and in control of
an assignee. Their half interest here
went with their other business in the
assignment The complications were
such, that Mr.. Jones, fearing the entire
business here, while perfectly solvent in
itself, might be drawn into the Des
Moines failure, asked for the receiver
ship.

Expect Nothing Else.

Last week acouple of grocery peddlars
were going east ON the train on this
branch when travelling man who hap
pened to know them by reputation, pro-
ceeded to pump them regarding their
business. The travelling man represen-
ted that he had been in the same bust
ness once upon time, whereupon the
one of the "grocerymen" took the bait
and unfolded to him several of the tricks
of the profession. In the course of fiji.
teen minutes the travelling man leaned
that the grocerymen were selling spices
of the most inferior grade at from 25
cents to 40 cents per pound, tea dust
and rank limitations of tea at from 40 to
so cents per pound; syrup, or rather
cheap glucose mixture which cost 10
cents per gallon, at $1.2Op per gallon and
other articles in like proportion. The
grocerymen displayed IN order which he
had taken that day fo- $78 worth of goods
and pointed the OFT several items upon
which he had soaked" his customer.
He also inrorred his friend that they
were on theis way to town not very
many NILS 2aatof here whore they had

cry co1iitedoi over $3.50 worth of orders

Creameries in Shelby County.

1t is the judgement of the writer that
creameries are the hope of this western
country. We mean by that that the
making and marketing of butter is the
solution of prosperity or of non-prosper-
ity for us.
Shelby county is making rapid strides
in butter making and we venture the pre-
diction that in the next five years she
will take ten steps in that direction where
she has taken one in the past five years.
There are now in operation within the
county four creameries,Ione at Harlan,
two in Jackson township, and one at
Earring. There are two just across the
line in Audubon county that draw part
of their supplies from this county. Avoca
on the south and Manila on the north
each has a creamery that uses Shelby
county milk. Thus we have eight
creameries doing business in this county.
Defiance, occupying rich territory
in the north part of the county, is dis
cussing the question and will no doubt
erect a creamery in the near future.
Shelby, situated in an equally rich ter
ritory in the south part of the county,
has taken up the matter and no doubt
will be in the field early next year, with
d gOOu planl.
We don't want our readers to under
stand that we mean there are great big
fortunes to be made in the creamery
business in few months or a couple of
years, but we do believe that by earnest
and persistent work by honest and
capable men the butter industry will do
more to enrich a community in period
of ten years than will any other pursuit.
We hope to give the views Of prac-
teal creamery man on this subject at
an early date, and will be glad to receive
communications ON the question from
a practical working standpoint.-Shelby
County Republican.
Audubon county's Creameries have
proven successful ventures to the parties
interested in them and it is strange that
more are not in operation. It l0ohs as
though each township ought to be able
to support q creamery. Mich cows are
a source of profit to the farmer, and the
creamery does away with the great labor
that attends on much home butter max
ing. We think with the Harlan writer
that there is good profit in the butter
business and that it might be followed
extensively in Audubon county to the
| advantage of the people.

Charles Taylor who was in the county
Jail on the charge of vagrancy made his
escape Monday evening and in the
language of the deputy sheriff, sis still
escaping" The entertaining capacity
of Sheriff Jones' hotel is being heavily
taxed nowadays and the prisoners were
allowed the freedom of the corridor dur
ing the day. Some time in the early
evening Taylor got one of the bars loose
and being young and of very slight build,
crawled out. When locking up time
came the jailor did not miss him and he
had plenty of time to get away before

Last Friday evening between $50 and
6 o'clock two fur coats were stolen from
the front of J. A. Kerr & Sons clothing
store. The coats were displayed on
dummies and the loss was not discovered
until the clerks took in the goods at
about 6 o'clock. Suspicion pointed to a
couple of "bums' who were about town
and they were arrested and taken before
before Justice Gray. They denied all
knowledge Of the missing coats but told
various stories to account for their
movements. The justice sent them to
jail under the charge of vagrancy. They
gave their names as Ed Teller and Chas,

THE CADETS AND THE INAUGU-
RATION.

The proposition to have the cadets
from the military academy at West
Point participate in the Inauguration
parade has aroused considerable dis
cussion. The senate refused to pass a
bill appropriating the money necessary
to defray their expenses, but it is said
that number of wealthy residents of
Washington have offered to subscribe
enough to defray the expense Of their
trip. 1t is perfectly proper for them
to go if the secretary of war should
order them to, but it would be highly
improper for them to go if the expense
subscription; they are part of the
army and their expenses should come
out of the appropriation for it, if they
are to go.
But why all this anxiety to make
such a grand display at the Inaugural
ton of Major Mckinley? If we re-
member rightly. the last time the West
Point cadets participated in an in
auguration parade. was when General
Grant was inaugurated the second time.
Their presence then was entirely ap-
propriate, for he was a military man
par excellence, the greatest the country
has produced. Then, again, he was a
cadet once himself and received his
military training at West Point. Major
Mckinley has a good and honorable
war record, one of which he may be
proud, but his greatest triumphs have
been in civil life. Why then, should
his inauguration be made so pro-
nouncedly military? If he were
graduate of West Point there would be
special fitness in having the corps Of
cadets present at the Inauguration cere-
monies, but he is not. If the secretary
of war sees fit to order them to Wash
ington on the occasion of the inaugura
ton of Major Mckinley it will be per-
fectly proper, and no one can object. 1t

OUTLOOK FOR BIMETALLIsM.

The selection Of Mr.. Lyman ]. Gage
to be secretary of the treasury by
President-elect Mckinley is a matter
of congratulation by the real silver
men after all Mr.. Gage is a gold
standard man to the core and does not
even pretend to have a sympathy for
silver. 1t is this pretense of sym
pathy for silver by the Republican
party in the past that has deceived
the people. The financial plank in the
st. Louis platform was but a continual
ton Of this same sympathy racket"
The secretary of the treasury cannot
dictate the financial legislation of the
government but he is not without great
influence upon it. Now, one of the
things anticipated under the incoming
administration is an international mon
etary conference. No doubt every eff
Tort will be made by the new admins
tration to secure this conference: the
selection of Mr.. Gage as secretary OF
the treasury guarantees this If there
We're any doubt of this, the rejection
of Senator Cannon's amendment to the
Chandler bill and the passage of that
blli by congress would remove it. To

M'KINLEY'S AMERICAN SUIT.

Some years ago ex-President Harri-
son said that somehow or other a
cheap coat seemed to make a cheap
man, evidently believing in the theory
| that the hood makes the monk. If a
cheap coat makes a cheap man, then
a dear coat must make a superior
man; in fact, man can be made any
thing by the kind of clothes he wears.
! If this be so, then Major Mckinley
will be made a thorough American
man, we had almost said a sheep man.
for the wool growers of Washington
county, Pa, we are told, ARE now
having manufactured cloth from $50
pounds of fine wool and from this cloth
a suit of clothes will be made as
present for Mr. Mckinley to be worn
on the day of his Inauguration. James
Boyle, the president-elect's private
secretary, in reply to a letter says that
Mr.. Mckinley will be more than de-
lighted to wear suit that will show
his Partially for an American prod
uct. The sheep from which this wool
was taken were raised in Washington
county No alien will take any part
goods
This suit will make Major Mckinley
not merely an American man, but a
Washington county. Pennsylvania,
man. How cheering and reassuring
the news that no alien will take part
in the handling of the wool or the
goods That is right, for an alien
might contaminate this suit made of
all wool and a yard wide. But the
cloth from which this suit is to be
made is to be manufactured from wool
grown in a single county in one state;
this is wrong, it is unpatriotic, it is
provincial AS the tall and stately
Washington monument that stands be-
side the Potomac is built of rock from
every state and territory in the Union,
so this Inauguration suit of President
elect Mckinley should be made of
cloth manufactured from wool from
every state and territory in the Union.
And then when his great heart beats
beneath that all-American wool inaug-
uration suit, it would beat for every
sheep throughout this broad land OF
liberty, and not merely for the shee<
of Washington county, Pennsylvania.
AS there are forty-five stars in the
flag, so there should be wool from
forty-fve states in the Inauguration
suit. The Inauguration suit, like the
starry flag, should represent the whole
country. If this were done, no doubt
President-elect Mckinley would be
more than doubly delighted to wear
i.
a suit on, made from cloth manufac-
tured, as we have suggested, no man
in all the world could say that that
coat was cheap or was worn by a
cheap man.
