With a little extra effort a very I good newspaper can be furnished the public on Monday morning.

The Greencastle Banner brings the tariff question home when it says: Consider the tariff question in its 1 relation to Greencastle. If we were to go to England for such manufactured 1 articles as we use, because we could »get them •cheaper there, what^ would become of our pump and lightning rod factory, nail factory, carriage factory, woolen factory, and where would the men employed in them find work?

This is a question that comes home to us all, for it touches every business and every pursuit.

TEKBE HAUTE'8 INTEREST IK PBO TECTIOH. "While political croakers have been howling themselves hoarse,and picturing the hard lot of laboring men, the laboring men themselves have been saving money. On the first day of January there were fifteen saving associations in Terre Haute. Each association represents a monthly Baving of ,000, and at the end of September each had accumulated $9,000, or a total of $135,000. Add to this amount $12,000 accumulated by three associations ncorporated since the beginning of the year, the amount of savings from this sourcc alone is $147,000, a greater amount than the croakers would accumulate in a life-time. The interest on this amount will increase it. The savings bank's report shows that it is in a flourishing condition, and as the deposits there are principally from laboring people, this will increase the aggregate saved. To this could be added the savings of thousands of dollars that are made by frugal men and women who are investing their hardearned dollars in other ways. Terre

Haute is not becoming a city of beg' gars. Buildings have gone^tlp all over the city, homes of laboring people. In no other city in the state do so many of the laboring people own houses. The rumble of rolling millB and factories, the clouds of foal smoke that overhang our city, speak in stronger tones than the voices of the croakers. A protective tariff is the cause of all this. Protection has enabled many workingmen in Terre Haute to own the roof that covers their heads has enabled them to clothe and feed their children has enabled the laboring people to make their homes comfortable, to educate their children, and to surround themselves with comforts, such com forts as the poor, down-trodden, freetrade pauper laborer of Europe never sees in his sweetest dreams. The Re publican party insists that this protective policy is just and declares that the coat of protection that shields the workingman from the cold winds of free-trade shall not be taken off.

ANSWERS TO COMMUHICATIONS, The Express frequently receives communications asking for informa tion. It is the chief object of the Express as a newspaper to furnish in formation, and when our readers ask for information to aid them in determining which party or candidate shall receive their support it is with decided satisfaction that we comply with the requests. The communications _eiven belowoare_s§mples„oj mftnjypS reply once before published. It covers the points upon which all of our correspondents ask foi light. It is a grati fying indication of the interest our people are taking in the vital question of a protective tariff when they are rigorously investigating Mr. Lamb'i record in congress in that regard.

Republican

Logan and the grand old loyal party, it knows no north, no sonth, nothing but the Union. Cleveland's kettle is as black as Hendrick's pot, don't touoh them, a Republican characteristic is clean hands.

James G. Blaine is the Patrick Henry of the second century, every age has its great men, great in the right in all trial that tests men's worth and manhood. It took a century to produce Patrick Henry it took a century to produce James G. Blaine. Patrick Henry preserved in congress that which our revolutionary fatherswon upon the field. James Blaine with the same pluck, genius, eloquence and an answering devotion to the principles and maxims which our.forefathers as God's trumpeters proclaimed he preserved in congress that which Grant, Logan, Sherman, and other generals and our brave boys won upon the field. Looked at through the vista ef the past quarter of a century, his character looms up full, majestic, complete, despite the efforts of the British Democracy, to vilify and defame his character he is a man of the people without the trace of a demagogue, his heart is as big as hiB brain and the people appreciate him. Ohio has spoken.

Again, I ask all citizens to stop by the wayside and ponder vote the straight Republican ticket be American is thought and deed. Our candidates are the very embodiment of American principles our platform is plain no word of delusion or folly it is broad enough for loyal Democrats to stand upon this country must not be controlled by disloyal demagogues think of the achievements of the Republican party, and on the morning of the 4t& of November turn to the little pet of the household, take it up, embrace it, kiss it "look into its innocent, true ting eyes and vote if you dare for the restoration to power of this monster of the nineteenth century—the Democratic party." 'The curse of slavery has poisoned its blood and rotted its bones. Let it die."

An Englishman who spent several days in this country says the Americans are a sad, melancholy-looking people. It is supposed he arrived in the United States the day after it was announced that Mr. Cable and Mark Twain would give public readings from their published works this winter.

A very queer accident, which might, if it had proved serious, been construed into a suicide, happened last Sunday at Tuskegee, Ala. Mr. Barney DuBose, while ringing the church bell, was caught around the neck by the rope and jerked up about seven teet, very near choking the life out of him before he could extricate himself. "I've read that over three tim^s," said Fenderson, looking up from hie newspaper in a jaded manner, "and bless me if I've the least idea what it's all about. Listen: "First row, knit eight, narrow, oyer, knit three, over, narrow, knit nine, narrow, over, knit three, over, knit two.' And so it goes on for a half a column. It sounds kinder nice, but blamed if I can see what the fellow's driving at."

An Old White Houae Servant. Cleveland Leader. Martin Renehan, one of the old time employes of the White Honse, died at Washington lately at the age of 74. He was for twenty years employed at the executive mansion, and this during the administrations of Jackson, Van Buren. Harrison, Tyler and Polk. He knew all oi the great men of the days before '50, and theje are numberless anecdotes of his witty repartees and his curious adventures floating about Washington. At one time it is said he found an old telescope in the attic of the White House, and brought it down upon the porch to look at the stars. It was during the Tyler administration, and the president was entertaining the cabinet ond other guests at dinner. Martin had mounted the telescope, but he could see no better than with the naked eye. in every way he discovered that the old telescope had no glass in It, and

I I

was giving th« telescope a good going over in very emphatic language when Daniel Webster, who had come out of the White Houte unobserved and was wafching Martin from behind, said: "What is the matter, Martin Can't you see anything?"

Mr. Renehan turned around somewhat embarrassed, but immediately replied "Mr. Webster, I have been disappointed—I can't, as I wish, contemplate the heavenly bodies, bat I am equally gratified in seeing an earthly luminary before me," At this Daniel Webster laughed, and going into the White House, told the company of the compliment he had received. •••**$$

Two Dangerons Reasons.

Spring and fall are times when so many people get sick. The changes in the weather are severe on feeble persons, and even those naturally strong are apt, as they sey, "to be feelingmiserable." Then they are just in condition to be struck down with some kind of fever. A bottle or two of Parker's Tonic will invigorate the digestion, put the liver, kidneys and blood in perfect order, and prevent more Berious attacks. Why suffer, and perhaps die, when so simple a medicine will save you Good for bath sexes and all ages.
