STREET RAILWAY MATERIAL
Letter From Mr.. Crouch Explains De-
lay and Brings News That He is
Buying the Material,

The REGISTER noted the departure
of Mr.. N. V. Crouch for the eastern
market to dispose of his bonds for
S75, 600 with which to build the electric
line from lola to LaHarpe, and to
purchase the material for the track
and the rails and equipment. Since
then no word has been received from
him, but those who knew him felt sure
that he was doing business right along
and the following letter written March
10 from Carrollton, Missouri, to Mr..
L. L. Northrup shows that this was
correct.
The letter says in part: 'You are
aware that it would have been folly to
have done any work on the line until
the charter had been passed on. This
being done, then | would be in shape
to make contracts. However, | have
been getting prices on all necessary
material and have ordered 200 red
cedar poles, 30-foot, to be shipped the
latter part of April. / did not think
it would pay to undertake any work
until the weather had fully settled.
"Will be down some time this week
if the weather permits.

CHANCE FOR A FACTORY
Outlook Bright For a New Plant
Provided lola People Will
Donate Reasonable
Amount.

There are other towns looking for
factories and several important com
panies which will have a good deal to
do with the final decision have not
been seen, so the REGISTER is COM
PEELED to abbreviate what may prove
to be good story.
Two gentlemen were shown 'about
lola yesterday. They have been at
other places, but like lola. They
want some two or three acres of land
and gas, all of which can be supplied
to fiji the bill at a cost OF two thous-
and dollars. They wish TO establish
a factory that will employ one hun
bred men and boys at good wages. a
factory that would advertise lola the
whole country over, factory that
can be secured only by being bonused
to the extent above noted.
The gentlemen left town satisfied
and have gone to confer with the rail
road officials and look up few other
details. If all is we'll, and the pros
poets are bright that all is well, then
the little subscription paper may again
circulate, and when it does there ought
to be a prompt, eager, willing re
Spouse.

ance formed at College Hill, ripened
into permanent attachment for Miss
Carolina l.. Scott, who afterwards be-
came his WIFE The young lady had
faith in his star and did not hesitate
to ally her fortunes to his. They were
married while he was yet a law student
and before he had attained his ma
iority. He graduated fourth in his
class in 1852.
After leaving school, Harrison
studied law with Storer e. Gwynne of
Cincinnati, and in 1853 married and
was admitted to the bar. In 1854 he
put up his sign as attorney at law in
indianapolis, where he has kept his
residence ever since. 1t was not long
before his ability became known.
In 1865 he formed a partnership with
William Wallace, and when that
gentleman was elected county clerk in
1861, he formed partnership with w.
p. Fishback, which was interrupted by
his enlisting in the army in 1862. The
connection was resumed again in 1865,
when the firm became Porter
Harrison q Fishback and so con-
tinued until 1870, when Mr. Fishback
retired, Judge Hines taking his place.
Governor Porter retiring, w. II.
Miller became partner in the firm, and,
upon Judge Hines retiring, Mr.. John
b. ELAN became a member of the firm
of Harrison, Miller Il Elan, which
continued until it was ended by Cen
eral Harrison's election to the presi
dency in 1888. While not always the
senior in years, he was always the
senior in every firm of which he was a
member; such is the ungrudging testi-
mony OF all who have been his part
ners. Harrison was among the first
to enlist in the Union Army when the
war broke out and he rose rapidly
from the grade of 2nd lieutenant to
that of Brigadier General, his services
being conspicuous for gallant and
soldierly conduct.
In 1879 Harrison was appointed by
President Hayes member of the Mis-
sissippi commission. In 1880 he was
chairman of the Indiana delegation
in the convention which nominated
James a. Garfield. His canvass of
Indiana and other states during the
campaign of 1880 was brilliant and
effective. President Garfield offered
him a place in his cabinet, which lie
declined. He was chosen United
States senator in 1881, and served un-
til 1887. His course in the senate was
such as to win the respect and esteem
of his Republican colleagues and to
command the respect of his political
opponents. This was his first expert
ence in a legislative body, but he soon
took rank among the foremost debaters
of the senate.
His election as President and his
brilliant administration is recent MIS-
tory and too well known to need to be
repeated here.

Shelter Boys Struck Tuesday.

Tuesday afternoon six boys EN-
ployed at the Nicholson's smelter
struck for higher wages. They are
the boys who push the cars loaded
with the mixed ore and coal from the
mix room down to the furnace room.
When they struck their request was
that their wages be raised from forty
to fifty cents. Each boy has to care
for one side of one block. if the REG
lister is rightly informed, and re-
ceives forty cents, while at the other
works each boy receives sixty cents
and cares for two sides of block.
Men were taken from the yards to do
the boys work and the six were paid
their wages in full to date and allowed
to go. Work did not stop and the
boys places will doubtless be filed by
other boys, a change in the work and
wage scale possibly being made.
