TOWN WITH NO RAILROAD.
Newton Jackson, a Merchant of Yer
saiIIes, in the City.

Newton Jackson, of Versailles, the Dem
ocratic treasurer of Ripley county, was a
guest Of the Hotel English last night. His
town enjoys the distinction OF being one
OF the few without a railroad. The B.
& o. at Osgood, five miles distant. is the
nearest road to Versailles. The people of
the town see no specially bright prospects
ahead in the way of an approaching loco
motive. They feel, however, that the troll
ley car Will some time make its appear
ance in that locality. Mr.. Jackson is a
merchant of Versailles, and had no special
political ambitions when he was elected.
Things had not been going well for the
Democracy in that county, but two years
ago was an loft year for the Republicans.
The Democracy seemed 10 suspect this
and got together and made up a ticket by
reclamation, which was elected. From
strictly commercial point of view" said
Mr.. Jackson last evening, 1T is perhaps
better for the business interests of Yer
sailles that we have no railroad. II we
had a road they would probably be ad-
vertising 5O-cent excursions to the city.
Suppose a man needed a pair of trousers.
He would take in the 5O-cent excursion and
buy them. Without the excursion he would
probably find 1t to his interest to buy his
trousers at home.

NO STRIKES AT ELKHART.


Col. James s. Dodge, of Elkhart, who
was a candidate for the Republican nomi-
nation for Governor before the state con-
vention two years ago, is in the city on
professional business He will not be a
candidate for Governor again. He says
he has not the money to spend in order to
get this office. The colonel is prominent in
G. \. r. circles I'm Indiana and is
one of Elkharts leading citizens. He is
proud of his town and very enthusiastic
over the Industrial progress it is making.
I'VE have just located a new factory at
Elkhart," said the colonel last night that
will employ 600 people. 1t is TO be tele-
phone supply factory. We are getting the
benefit of the labor troubles that arise in
Chicago. Factories come from Chicago to
us and we welcome them. Such thing as
a strike in Elkhart is not heard Of There
hasn't been q strike there for twenty
years. Why is IL so? 1t is because the
majority of the wage earners of Elkhart
own their homes. IL a man owns property
in the town he feels that he has an inter
est in the welfare of the city and does not
want 10 strike or make trouble We have
an organization called the Century Club.
IL is a social organization, with business
features This club often takes up ques-
tions of Industrial progress and talks of
Things that are good for the town."
