TOWN IS CLAIMED
BY TWO STATES

Union City, Ind. Dec. 13.-Citizens
of this city and several other towns
on the eastern boundry OF Indiana
are anxious TO learn just where they
are at" Several allege that the
strip of country along the Indiana
Ohio border in which these munich
palities are located. now belonging to
Indiana, is really part Of Ohio. If
this claim should be sustained, thou
sands of people who now consider
themselves Hoosier would be trans
formed into Buckeyes. II is safe to
say that a majority of the persons in
volyed do not consider such cul-
mination desirable, and if the matter
should come TO an issue, the citizens
of Union City will fight 70 retain their
right to the title of Hoosier.

Certain Interests Are Talk
ing of Establishing En-,
terprise of this Kind
Here
BIG DEMAND 7
FOR THE PRODUCT
Farmers and Railroad Peo-
pie Have to Send Away
for their Supply

Certain interests i'm Blueheld are
debating the advisibility OF establish
ing n fencing wire factory In the city.
II is argued that there Is a big de-
mand in this part of the country for
barbed wire and other fencing wire
among the farmers. and that the rail.
road companies also use an immense
amount of wire along their rights OF
way. II is thought that an enterprise
of this kind i'm view of the local de-
mand would pay good percent on
the investment. and the promoters
see no reason why the commodity
could not be made here aa we'll as
anywhere else. In fact they believe
that II could be made "a good deoI
cheaper than in most places where
the long hauls of fuel and the raw
material must of necessity cut down
the profits
III takes no great amount of capital
TO start factory OF this kind. IL will
be remembered that John w. Gates
established the foundation OF bis for.
tune i'm a fencing wire enterprise. and
that his original factory was IN a
basement and his equipment OF the
most primitive character. Yet he
made success of the undertaking at
n time when the demand was not TO
be compared with that of today.
Owing To the increasing scarcity
OF timber the matter of fence build
ing among the farmers i'm most parts
of the country has resolved itself i'm.
to the wire proposition. I'm fact il
is stated that the ruling high prices Of
lumber make the wire fence cheaper
not TO mention its superior durability
compared with any style of wood
fence.
The idea of the promoters Is to
start on moderate scale involving
the outlay of no great amount OF cap
ital. and build up the business as the
demands of the territory and the
trade REQUIRE

ELECTION DAY FIFTY YEARS AGO

November 6, 1860, fifty years ago,
was probably the most interesting cleo
ton ever held in this country, the out
come, for it meant much to the nation.
Abraham Lincoln was the leading can
didate, and the people aroused to the
needs of the occasion elected him to
that position which he filed with so
much credit, and which made his name
the most honored of all our patriotic
martyred presidents. In his election
the hand of Providence was most clear
ly seen, for a man had been raised up
from humble rail splitter, equal to
the occasion. Pages of history TEEN
with the manhood of Lincoln. On No
vember 10th following, the ordinance
of secession was passed, and the fol-
lowing year, 1861, saw the beginning of
that awful struggle which, under the
guidance of Lincoln's mastery hand,
freed the slaves and made this once
more, 1.-THE land of the free. and the
home of the brave. "-Ex.
