"The records show that duriug
Alaj. Urtmes' term of office 258 men have served as jurors in the
circuit court. Of these 72 were of
the regular panels, and 186 were
talesmen, men taken from the bystanders or sam mooed as special venires. The same records show that the amount paid out to jurors
daring that tine was l,9TZ.zu. Of this amount $359.60 was paid
to Democrats, and 1,51S.60 to Republicans. If, as we charge, the se
lecting of juries has not been ran in the interest of the Republican
party (we should say Republican candidates), how ia it that nearly five times as much money has been
paid to Republican jurors as 'has been paid to Democratic jurors? 11" 1 ! al a -

What Will Become of Hen Who Make Such Unfounded Statements?
As every intelligent man knows tbat the Sheriff has nothing whatever to do with creating the regular panel, we give the names of the talesmen jurors only. Since last week's publication the list of talesmen for November, 1880, has been secured, and the entire list is now produced below, as eonelusive proof that the Courier's article, and the statements now being made by some of the county candidates on the Democratic ticket, are malicious and without any foundation whatever. Bloomington dry and Bloomington township are -largely Republican, as are also the surrounding townships of Ferry, Van Buren and Richland j as a result, the bystanders and spectators in the court room average two Republicans to ione Democrat, and it is from these that the sheriff is required to call bis talesmen when 'regular jurors are objected off by attorneys in a suit. These facts are undeniable, and it is shown by the names and figures below tbat the jurymen called by the sheriff are in jud that proportion, and not five Republicans
to one Democrat, as the Courier

Rich fabrics are now piled up on Benj. McGee's , shelves, from which he is cutting some very handsome and stylish suits of clothes (the wedding suits are all made by McGee) and it is astonishing how well you may dress if you will expend thirty-five or forty dollars with the Prince ot Merchant Tailors McGee. He seldom loses a customer, except by death, and it would surprise you to see the orders he receives from far-away points. McGee does hones t work, uses firstclass materials, and his suits fit perfectly. What more could you ask. Daily additions are being made to the prime stock of Groceries kept on sale by Hemp. Wilson the "Progress Block" Grocer. Wilson has a good country trade, numbering among it the most careful farmers in the county, whose good wives make the choicest butter and cheese. He has a big butter trade as a result, because he keeps only the bett. Some special bargains are offered in Coffee at Wilson's grocery, aud sugar and tea are sold as cheap as at any house. Skillful barbers are not as plentiful as some persons might beliove, and it is best to have your shaving and hair cutting dene by men who thoroughly understand their business. Era. Hughes, the south side Barber is first-clsss and keeps only first-class workmen. He also
has a very hoice stock of popular brands of tobaccos and citrars, and sells them as
cheaply as any man in the trade. Ask for Eph. Hughes's Barber Shop, if you don't

If you don't see what you want this week, at Kahn & Tanenbaum's ask for it. Mone does not ask his customers to be modest just because he is that way himself. Arriving by every train is the new stock of Fall goods recently purchased by Clias. Mobley, of the "Golden Rule" dry goods store. He has eclipsed all former efforts in this line, and can show a better erode of
goods for the money than has ever been sold in Monroe .county. He
will not stand back for any dealer in the connjy, in the matter of variety of goods or taste in selection. Do not fail to call at the "Golden Rule" before closing a purchase. Displays of fine jewelry, ornamental clocks, standard silverware,
first-class time-keeping wettches,aud everything in that line are made from new arrivals at Tobe Smith's

Everybody and their boys are requested to calil at Kahn & Tannenbaum's and see the handsome new Fall styles in clothing. The Democratic office seekers of Monroe county are a queer set. They go forth, and in school houses and by-ways make all manner of assertions, many of them with little or no foundation, bat it is vefy wrong for tlie Bepublicans to come baok at them they growl and rave about such things terribly. A case in point: The Courier published a batch of statements about juries stating tbat Jive times as much money was paid to Republican jurymen as to Democrats, during Major Grimes' administration. The Progress shows this to be untrue and calls attention to a jury drawn in the Auditor's office in 1880. Oh that's terrible! It is all right to
charge anything and everything on
a Republican office holder, but it is treason, murder, outrage ! to show up the acts, or results ot acts, done by, or with the sanction of a Democratic office holder. Congressman Matson spoke in the court house, Wednesday night, upon the tariff, railroad and harbor bills, etc. Matson is a dull, prosy
Polite salesmen will show you any article you desire to see in the "Boss" clothing store stock. Gee Adkins, with his Republican Glee Club, enlivened the meeting with appropriate music, last Saturday. There is no use in old fog); politicians 'kicking against the pricks,' as the good bid family bible has it the amendments must and will be sumitted to a vote of the people. Bloomington was full of peo

all kinds was uncommouly goocu Traveling men Bay ours is one of the best towns in the State, On Saturday afternoon, in the court house in Bloomington, Maj. Gordoiij Republican candidate for Clerk of the Supreme Court, ad
dressed an immense audience of
people. The Major spoke two hours and forty minutes and held hia audience during the whole time. He is making an effective canvass. The "expert" tax hunting business has turned out to be a barefaced swindle and systematized species of blackmail and robbery, in Marion county, as it has been everywhere else. In many counties every official who has become a party to or in any way countenanc ed it, will be promptly defeated at the polls. There is-said to be some

It is wonderful how egotistical the average man becomes after a term in Congress. He magnifies his own greatness aud seems to imagine that the eyes of- the whole world are upon him. Mation is no exception to thu rule.
Hiram McCormick, of Martin
county, the Democratio candidate
for District Prosecutor, it is stated, at one time kept a saloon in West Shoals. He is certainly not the man teraperanos Democrats desire to vote for. Tobe Smith will sell his coun

he has purchased an entire new out fit for his popular jewelry palace.

In a weak attempt to answer our charge that republicans had been paid five times as much money as Democrats for serving on Juries the Progress publishes a long list of names of jurors who have served during the post two years, but then leaves out the list of jurors for the November term, 1880, which was included in our calculation, and inserts the list for tho September term, 1882, which we did not include in our calculation.
