It looks as though Indiana didn't care anything about health, or cleanliness; so what's the use of the newspapers worrying about sewerage if there isn't a public response. If the people who profess to be so strongly in favor of a system of sewers will themselves do a little towards securing it if they will organize or do something tangible towards that end, they will find the Gazette and doubtless the other local papers seconding them in their efforts.

But what's the use of preaching about quail on toast to a community that seems perfectly satisfied with sow belly The Philadelphia "North American" has been furnishing some very interesting reading matter this week in exposure of the corruption which it has discovered in the administration of the oleomargerine law of this state. It charges that some of the men ap pointed to see to the enforcement of the law and bring to grief its violators, have been permitting the sale of millions of pounds of' oleomargerine every year against which illegal sales the officials closed their eyes and furnished protection at the rate of one cent a pound for each pound of bogus butter sold. The Governor has been prodded into action on the matter and one of the greatest scandals in the political history of the State is promised. This is the law so vigorously championed by JOHN P. Elkin at the time when the dubbed him "Bull But ter'' F.LKTN.

The Senate Committee on pri ileges and elections has decided unanimously that Mr. Clark, of Montanna, is not entitled to a place in the United States Senate, and has recommended that his seat be declared vacant. This can be done by a majority vote instead of the two-thirds necessary if the committee had recommended Mr. Clark's expulsion. The committee doe not find that Mr.

Clark himself has been guilty of bribery, but holds that the Montana statute providing that only 82,000 shall be spent in any election, was violated and that the large amount admitted to have been spent by Mr. Clark is prima facie evidence of its illegitimate use. The farmer would be more benefitted by good roads than any other class. The value of a farm is determined by its accessibility. The land that is favored by the best transportation facilities will bring the best price per acre when put on the market.

There is no doubt that one mile of good macadamized road is more valuable in this country than five miles of plough-and-scraper road that goes to pieces in one year. Indiana county farmers will doubtless reap some benefit from the British Boer war and the account on page 2 of the boom in the prices of horses due to the African conflict, will be interesting reading for them. This county has always been a favorite field for eastern horso buyers and we look for a better market hereabouts as the result of England's big purchase.

We believe Chamberlain's Coiigh Remedy is the best in the world. A few weeks ago we suffered with a sovero cold and a troublesome cough, and having read their advertisements in our own and other papers, we purchased a bottle to see how it would affect us.

It cured us before the bottle was more than half used. It is the best medicine out for colds and coughs. The Herald, Andersonville, Ind. For sale by Daugherty Indiana. L.

J. Lewis. The County Committee Meeting. As usual, at the meeting of the Republican county committee on Monday, a set of one-man, prepared-in-advance resolutions was banded in by a favorite ring messenger-boy and railroaded through, as the expression of the Republicans of the county. While the manner of their presentation and adoption makes the resolutions worthless" as an honest sentiment of an honest party, they do embody many clauses which, bad they been formulated by a committee appointed out of that body to express the sentiments of the people, would meet with the hearty approval of the Republicans of Indiana county.

The clap-trap about the administration of Gov. Stone is about 60 per cent, rot and 30 per cent. gush. The last Legislature is censured for, not electing- a Sen ator. It should have done so, and had all the factions there represented done as did the anti-Quayites cast about among a large number of desirable and competent men rather than stick out from first to last on one man that result would have been attained.

And along with censuring the legislature for what it failed to do, the resolution should have gone farther and censured Gov. Stone for neglecting his sworn duty in not reconvening the legislature to elect a successor to the obnoxious Quay.1 The resolution fixing a halo over the head of the aforesaid Quay, we feel constrained to style as rot real rank rot; and we believe that the United States Senate will not fall over itself in an effort to comply with the views of the man who makes resolutions for the Republican committee of Indiana county to adopt. The re-election of George J. Feit, as chairman, was a just recognition of work well and Impartially done, and will meet with approbation on all sides. Applies to Thin County.

Philadelphia Inquirer While the people of Monroe county are considering the advisability of erecting a poorhouse of their own, The Inquirer would like to support the Stroudbburg Jeflfersonian in its general declaration that it would be found economical to build such an institution. County after county has hesitated over the question of thus caring for its poor. The croakers, always present and always croaking, have hindered such work so many year that nobody remembers when they began. They had no argument to advance except that the management would be corrupt -an argument that would bar every modirn innovation or improvement, the care of which would have to be inti usted to representatives of the people But despite their efforts there have been many poorhouses erected by the different districts; and where the public has scrutinized the work of the officials the cost of maintaining the county poor has been reduced and the poor themselves better cared for. There is not ono chance in ten that Monroe's experience would differ from that of the other counties that thus grappled with the question and that belief impels The Inquirer to urge them to build their own almshouse, and then keep watch upon those who arc intrusted with its management.

A nomueu of citizens nave expressed the desire that the Gazette again revive the question of sewerage for thi town. We are glad to help along in this work and will do what we may able. In years past, this paper aed several others in town, have devoted considerable space to the Citation of the question.
