OUR CANDIDATES.

Below we give brief sketches of!

the men who constitute the Monroe

County Republican ticket, and ask

a perusal of it by the readers of the Progress. We feel nositive that

a they will lose nothing by compart

son with anv other equal number

of men in the county, and confidently predict their election, on the

7th of November, to the offices for

which they each aspire : D. Wall, BrowBlBg.

During the past eight years the Progress' bas had frequent occasions to refer to

X. W. Browning, the candidate tor Cleric, by reason of his efficiency and general fitness. As Deputy Clerk ho has performed the largest share of the duties of the office, nd has nerformed them so well, so cheer

fully and promptly, as to make friends of

all "wno nave come in contact wuu mm. Among penmen he is acknowledged to be the most competent record clerk in the State, and it is a great relief to One of the

supreme juoges u ge uuiu wt w " " Brownine's transcripts. In the large pen

sion certificate business done in the county clerk's office, "Wall, has invariably donated his fees and services, amounting to

hundreds of dollars each year, and this

has been in the interest of the widow, the

ornhan. and of the disabled soldier. He is

an untirinir worker, and like his father

(Wn. F. Browning) is first and last wher

ever and whenevertnore is anything to oe dona to forward the cause of J&epublicanism or charity. Capt. W. 9fl. Alexander,

the candidate for Auditor, Is known to every to an. woman and child in Monroe

connty as "Mart." As Deputy Sheriff, and afterwards as Sheriff of the county,

be braved the- atoms and floods of winter

and summer for years, and was always found to be the same genial, accommodating man, no matter what bis position or circumstances. There is no politics in .Mart's cleverness either, for bo has always been aa ready to favor or assist a Democrat as a Benublican it was only necessary

for him to know that a human being was in distress or needed a favor, and the fa

vor wa; Granted tf it was in -Mart. Ale

ndert power. After serving four years

aa Sheriff, he retired from :nat office wita

the full endorsement of LJemocrats and

Nationals, as wtf 1 as Republicans, as the most prompt ana efficient officer that had over filed the position. He was a gallant soldier throughout the war of tho rebellion. With the assistance of his friends 4n the 7th of November, he will duplicate in the Auditor's office, the record he has inadoas Sheriff. Isaac Claman, comes from good Republican stock in Richland tp and although be has been all his lift a farmer, he has become somewhat familiar with the routine work of the Trcaswer's office while acting in the capacity of collector. Ike has no enemies, that "ose ever heard of, and he will glide into the office with ease. 'Haj. Silas Grimes, the candidate for Sheriff, has held the office since November, 18). At the Bme df his ejection ha was a Clear Creek ti.jrnship farmer, and a successful one, owing to bard work and close attention to the details at bis business. When he received the Republican nomination for Sheriff in 188, the Democracy selected their t-trongeVt man in the person of Jack Dowden, aid so confident did they feel that his popularity and extensive acquaintance would ul him through, that many of them bit their clothes and lost. OiVe iu6ines( man on the north side of the square "guessed' five overcoats with n inany democrats who thought it an easy inatterlo defeat Grimes, and thbusinb& inan referred to has a change of overcoats almost! every day of tbe week. Silas Grime responded to President Lincoln's first cat for troops, and served till th-i end of thr months. He then promptly reenlisted for tbe war and was elected Itieuteawt ; was afterwards made a Captain, aid still further on in tbe war, througl meritorious conduct as an officer and a Sldier, and having the confidence of his tiperiors, be was promoted to tbe office ofSMajor. He never failed to make n, marcbltli&t hi$ regiment made, and never missel a fight that his company participated in He hal never failed to perform bis full oUty as Sheriff, and never will. Was. N. 'Half, the candfato for Recorder, is a citizen of Kichlandtownsbip. He was raised on a farm bulhas received a good business education. During tbe past two years he has been toputy postmaster at Ellettsville, and iaextoraoly popular with all classes. About No-ember 15th, Mr. Hall will take up his rchience in Bloomington, and the records ol Monroe county will then receive hi divided and careful attention. Dr. Jas. B. Gaston, the candicita for Coroner, resides in Stanford, Van furen township, and has been a practicing Utysician since the close of the war. As member of the 43d regiment, Dr. Gastontarried a musket in the thickest of the ht in one of tbe battles of '63, and carries certificate to that effect in tbe shape if a crippled arm and band. He isatnA unflinching Republican, an active worfar, and will hold an inquest over the delated Democracy on tbe evening of Jfovtaber 7th. H. II. ftasklrk, tbe candidal for Survey"', is the present incumbent ' ilr. Buskirk is a farmer of Indian Cree township. Ill is also a school teacb, and has filled the position of Surveyor with greater satisfaction to tbe people thoughout tbe county than any man. wbo b ever "run the lines." lie also carried:n musket during the late "misunderstaSding," and there U no misXrodorstandini as to Buskirk's position on that or any rfcent contest. Iaiii p. Barton, the candidatrfbr Commissioner of the 1st district, is a frmcr of Be;n Blossom township, residineajbout two miles from the northwest coper at the township. Jlr. Burton was eticateTiu ttloomington, and is a thorough; business man aa well as a successful fare; and stock raiser. Jot p. HarreU, of Clear Crej township, tl e cwd:dale for Commissbter for tho 3d district, retides upon a irm near Smtthvtlle. He has always bin ono of tbe most active, energetic and conscientious working Republicans in tt towoabip, and will give a good acconnbf himself when the roll is called.

Editor Progress: As is well known to many I was Administrator of the estates of Jacob Young and of Wm. O'Bold, as also Guardian ofjhe minor heirs. I have been discharged from all these trusts several years. Like the majority of Guardians and Administrators, I was ignorant of the law, and entrusted everything to my attorneys, who advised me in every step 1 took, made out all my reports, examined my receipts, vouchers, etc., and liko all other men placed in a similar position, I relied entirely upon my attorneys, who I think did what they believed to be right and proper. Last Spring (about February) 1 received a notice through the postoffice citing me to appear at the Auditor's office aud pay over back taxes which it was claimed I owed on these estates. I was very much surprised and worried over the matter when I was told that there was 700 due. Several days afterward one of the men, J. W. V'harton, who was working j up these back taxes, called on me j

and after stating that he knew that;

it would be a great hardship on nie to pay $700, proposed that if I

would pay 200 the matter would be dropped. Some ten days elapsed, and the "expert" as he is called, a ,ked me several times about paying the money. Finallv, at a great

sacrifice, I raised the mouev aud !

paid it to him. Several days ago I went to the Auditor's office to look the matter I up, and found that the $200 had not been, credited. There is not a r i. . t u I

3ciuc vj u yKti tu uw niaL x. nave ever paid a cent of the 700 which it was claimed I owed. Now, on investigation, I find that there was nothing due from me as

back . taxes, although 200 of hard ! earned money was wrung from me. I Is this blackmail? If not, what! is it? I told Jim Alexander that I had ' paid two hundred dollars as a com-! promise on back taxes, that were'

said to be due against me in the

Auditor's office, and Jim inferred

that I bad paid it to Dick, and told ' it that way. Dick mine to mo and !

asked me to sign a statement that I

had not paid the 200 to htm (Dick).

I signed this statement for him, but!

I want vour readers to know that I

did pay 200 to J. W. Wharton,' who was at that time Pome sort of a !

deputy in the Auditor's office.

Here is the statement, verbatim : State of Indiana, Aloiireo eo.,ss. I, John "W. Davis, hereby state that I

never said to W. J. Alexander or any ono i else that I puid any money to It. A.Vulk, ;

and that I never (poke to mm in regard I to the payment thereof, until Mr. Fulk i

-The Cincinnati Exposition it

square, is now a complete "Fair," I

and so gr&at has been the throng ot buyers since the arrival of the good:;, that much of it was never placed on the shelves they bought from the boxes, just as the goods were unpacked. Bale after bale of domestics, car-load after car-load of boot and shoe boxes, aud fine dress goods in

scores of heavy packages, have been j

rolled into the spacious doors ot the

New York Store. This is a notable stock of goods, ono that is sure to receive the attention oT buyers in this and adjoining counties, throughout the Fall and Winter months. Nothing so extensive or

so superbly magnificent, has ever

before beei seen in iloomington, and as for prices, we challenge the trade to eq ial us in cheapness. Lkn. S. Field & Co. Daily additions are being made to the prime stock of Groceries kept on sale by Hemp. Wilson the "Progress Block" Grocer. Wilson has

If you don't sec what you want this week, at Kahn & Taneubaum's ask for it. Mose does not ask his customers to bo modest just because he is that way himself.

Akuiving by every train is the new stock of Fall goods recently purchased by Chas. Mobley, of the "Golden Rule" dry goods store. He has eclipsed all former efforts in this line, and can show a better grade of goods for the money than has ever been sold in Monroe county. He will not stand back for any dealer in the county, in the matter of variety of goods or taste iu selection. Do not fail to call at the "Goldeu Rule" before closing a purchase. Displays cf line jewelry, ornamental clocks, standard silverware, first-ciass time-keepiug watches.and everything in that line are made from new arrivals at Tobc Smith's each week. In the matter of wedding presents you find a richer supply at Tobc dmilh's than at any other jewelry house this side of Louisville or Cinciuuati. It would be impossible 1.0 enumerate a part of the articles kt-pt in Smith's establishment. It is a "Bazar" in all that the term implies, and everything made ar.d sold (in the fancy liue) can be found here.
