Editor Progress : Inasmuch as the Kenublkrans of Brown and Monroe counties
bar not seen fit t nominate a candidate for Joint Representative. I desire to announce my candidacy for that office, in the f-olnmni of your paper. I believe in keeping alive the party traditions by placing a full ticket in the field, and ask the
votes of all ox my rnrncw. SAMUEL GORDON.
-For oartv that set out to
mke an aggressive campaign, the Democrats are in a bad way. They at on the defensive all along the line, and have a great deal more
than they can attend to.
The Volkafirennd is the name
of a new German paper established
at Goshen, lad. It supports Blaine and Logan, and the entire
Scpablieaa ticket.
If, in the light of the events of
the last two months, the Democra
tic National Convention were to be
held over again, Grover Cleveland wooM hardly be named as a candi-
date
Tn England wages are barely one half what they are in America. Yet meat and bread are higher
there than rare. Just bow it will benefit the laboring men of this
country to red nee their wages one half, it is difficult to understand.
Draw the picture of oar great
mannfaetories shut down because of a surplus of English pauper pro
ductions, and the metory laborer scratching lor a miserable existence on a two-acre lot and yon have the beauties of free trade. ' In about eight years from now the Democratic party (if they should live so long) will want to claim all the credit for our glorious protective tariff system just as they now lay claim to the credit of our system of greenback currency. It fought the issue of greenbacks as vigorously as it now opposes a pro tective tariff. In one of his recent speeches Mr. Hendricks asserted that "an
Irishman was a Democrat by nature." He certainly could not have nttered a sentiment more offensive than that to any intelligent Irish man. It is a declaration that an Irishman moves through this world and acts the part of a human being
tnrougn instinct ana not tnrougn
any natural or
to say that he is born so, and ton? not be educated or influenced by superior intellects to be anything else. A mule is a mule by nature. That is admitted, but when it cometo declaring that an Irishman is a "Democrat by nature," it is about time for people of that nationality to prove by their acts as men that the assertion is as false as it must be offensive.
Rocky Mountain Celt: Ten years ago, as we are personaly informed by a learned and noted nrolessor of Notre Dame (Ind.) Catholic UinversUy, a bell was cast in France for the above worthy institution and shipped to this country. It was through the efforts and instance of Mr. Blaine that it was admitted free of custom duty. Five years ago the same institution had imported some stained glass) could not be procurd in this country when, by bis influence it wss also passed free of duty. Notwithtandias? his strong protective ideas,
he felt that as these goods were
for an educational institution, and
a worthy one, no duty should be
placed upon tnem. Here is a sam!le ef kis animosity to the Catho-ics..
The Democratic party has made
Fuck remove two of the "tattoo" marks it hsd placed on Blaine those depicting him as an enemy of the Chinese and a friend of the silver dollar, for the Democracy found they were helping Blaine r.th:r than hurting Mm.
CAMItTS 91. CLAY'S SPEECH AT LOUMYILliE. Cassius M. Clay recently made a speech in Louisville, Ivy. from which the following is an extract : The Solid South wants remuneration for the war. I did not believe it until it was forced upon me by experience. My belief is that if the so-called Democratic party get possession of the Government they never will stop until they get pay for all the slaves liberated by the
war. W by ;do J, say so r .Because
I have heard avowals from them to this effect time and again. Because they raise monuments to the Cen federate dead, the men who struck blows against the country, and who attempted to take the life of the Nation. There is John C. Breckinridge, my personal friend. In the Kentucky Legislature they passed a law taxing me and every other Union man in Kentucky to erect a ten thousand dollar monument to him. But when it was soggested to raise a monument to Henry Nelson, a man ef equal ability in war at any rate, they scoffed at the idea of raising a
monument to a Union man. If
yoa put tbe -Uemoorats in power
they will increase the army ; and with tbe Solid South at their back, what would hinder them, without the expenditure of a single dollar, from going into Republican States and maintaining their supremacy by forcer I say above board, that a man who advocates force to obtain power, will use force to maintain that power. When we are emerging from barbarism to civilization, the workingmen and not the sol
diers are coming into power. The great majority of the people of this
country are workingmen. 1 have always been in favor of tbe laboring man, although not as a demag
ogue. I have frequently said that
tne ncn and tbe powerful can protect themselves, and that it is the part of Government to protect the laboring man and the humble. How are going to do that ? By
making war on the tariff? There
are two ways of collecting revenue
by internal taxes and by a tariff
on loreign goods. JSy tbe latter
system you get clear of the corrupt
machinery of an internal tax : and by a tariff the poor man can escape taxation, as he need not buy for-
eign made goods unless be wants to. But under an internal revenue system the rich can largely avoid
taxation by hiding away their property. Therefore I have all my life been in fovor of the protective
tariff. Are yon in favor of a tariff
that will prevent the oppressed of
JSurope from coming over here and
sharing jour property? Not at all. Yon are in ft vor of them coming over aud helping to cut down our
forests, dig our mines, make ma
chinery and build railroads. God speed them ! But I have always
been opposed to American labor being brought into competition with the pauper labor of despotic Eu
rope.
That is the difference between
the Democratic and Republican party. We are for protecting the
laborer on our own toil, and that,
too, by tbe tariff which he does not
net. if we don t yet make as good
articles as they do in France, Ger
many and England, we will in tbe
course of a few years, and in the long-run we get cheaper articles than if we imported them, as we
save insurance, shipping and inter
est. It was protection that built
up England. Germany never prospered until she established the ZoIIverein. Russia used to be the
greatest field that England had for
her mannhictures. But when n-
gland took sides against the old flag
I began to implant protection ideas in the minds of the Russian people. I was invited to Moscow, and made
tariff speech which was printed 1 the hundreds of thousands in
the Russian language and sent all over tbe Empire. Russia, under a protective system, now has her own
monnfeirnMa
natural or acquired inteUi-i n.lvm.M;mi.. l,.-. k... t,Um.
Tbe idea of a man being! 7' aa, fnnmm(WO
wnai new wnwganuire Mr. Blaine, with that great intelli
gence which distinguishes him, has shown the reason. It is because
there is a minimum in profits. But we have a vast internal com
merce, fostered by a protective tar
iff.
Now, gentlemen, I shall vote for
the Republican party because of its policy as to a tariff. I am not will
ing that England shall come in and rob ns of onr manufactures.
Tbe Republican party is for the
American people against the world. But the Democrats want foreign manufactures to come in.
There are a great many Germans
and Irish in this State of Kentucky. Are they going to vote for their old enemy, England? Or will they vote for Blaine and a home tariff
to build up the manufactures of our
people? That is the question.
These are the principal issues in
tbe campaign. And I don't be
lieve that we are going to be defeat
ed. I do not believe that the spir
it of liberty is to be trampled upon by violence. I stand here to-night
tbe best friend of the South, by
asking the South to understand its
true interests. We expect to break up tbe Solid South. But does anybody suppose that I am against the
Democratic party? JNo, sir. Whenever there is a true Democratic party I am in it. Whatever true principle there is in Democracy is in the Republican party. A man says he has been all his life a Democrat. What is Democracy ? The rule of the people. But the 'ii;ayriy rule in 8uti Carolina.
And do not the minority now rule in Mississippi ? Are not both these
Democratic States? Where the minority rules and not the majority,
and that not by persuasion, but by force, there is no true Democracy.
No, gentlemen, the prosperity of
the south depends upon a tatr ballot. And I believe that God Almighty is going to stand by us in these issues. Whenever the Democratic party stands for argument, and justice and equal rights and common prosperity, then I am with the Democratic party, no matter
under what name these principles may be embodied. Loud applause. There is no greater fallacy than that asserted by the free trade
Democrats that a protective tariff
increases tbe price of goods. It may temporarily ,but as soon as the home industries are once established, tbe competition brings the price down. This is not a bare statement. It is supported by the facts and figures. Since 1861 under the present protective tariff there has been a reduction in the prices of manufactured articles of at least 25 per cent on an average, and at the same time there has been an increase of at least 30 per cent, in the wages paid to the workmen of all kinds. The wisdom of our present tariff policy is clearly proven. It has accomplished what its friends promised. It has reduced tbe price ef the article manufactured, increased wages, developed the material resources of our country, and made all branches more stable and prosperous. -The lowest price ef gold in tbe New York market from the suspension of specie payment by the government in January, 1862, to resumption in January, 1879, was in January, 1862, and was 100 cents on the dollar. The highest was in July, 1864, and was $2.85.
In January, 1884, the amount of
legal-tender currency in circulation was $346,681,016. The apportionment among the states of representatives in Congress, by the tenth census, 1880, is one reprcsntativc for every 154,325. The nation's greatest debt was in 1866, and was $2,779,236,173,69. The debt in 1883 was $1,884,171,728,07. Who dare say the Republican party is not a successful busineis party- ,. .. . Demagogae Stetson's Tricks. Col. Matson went to "Washington recently, and there wa a suspicion that hi journey had something to do with hit candidacy. And now comes the proof. He went to the Pension Department and
asked to he informed 'as to the status of
claims pending from soldiers residing in his District. Under the rules, a letter was
furnished him in each case, which be at once transmitted in a Government envelope to the soldier, without any expense to himself. In such cases as the soldiers
had completed their evidence, so as to en-
sole uommnsoner uuaiey to say that tne claim would be allowed, he was careful to
indorse on the hack "I congratulate you
O. v. Matson." Tne efiect intended to
be produced upon the soldier was that ho was indebted to the kindly offices of Col. Mntson for his pension, when, the fact is, he could have had no influence whatever, exceDt orobabl v. the ezDeditinsr of its con
sideration a few days or weeks ahead of
its regular time, and tliia the soldier could
have done as well as Mnttm had he writ-
en to the Department. Was thero ever
such demagogum? What the soldier wants in Congress is a Representative who will vote right on all questions affect
ing himself aad his comrade in all part iL Tr 1 . le il. i i
ui mo union , r, it inu iw are rigut, he will get his pension without the personal efforts of any one except himself and his attorney in making the necessary proof. Tbe transparent effort to buy hit
to to by a littto taffy in tbe shape of, "7
congratulate you," is an insult which he
knows now to resent when tbe time comes,
and that will occur on tbe 4th day or Ho. veraber at the ballot-box. Greencastle Banner.
It is stated that returns made by
General Butler to the Assessor shows his income from his profes
sion to be $100,000, the value of
bis horses and yachts $30,000, and
tne value of his real estate in Low
ell $60,500. If he has horny hands,
it is on account of the labor of clipping coupons from his bonds. ' The
General travels with a valet, and when he arises to tbe champion
ship of the workingmen disports
bimselt m a broad expanse of shirt and coat with tails barely broad
enough to cover his hip pockets.
Butler is an eccentric workingmen s candidate.
Fifty gentlemen of Lynchburg,
Va., (all Democrats, every one) formed what they call a "High Tariff Club," and for fear the fact
would be doubted, they raised a pole eighty-four feet high and flung to the breeze a flag upon which is painted so that it can be seen, "High Tariff Club, 1884." The President of the Club explains:
"He and his Club had always voted the Democratic ticket, but in
this election they had been driven
out ; that they could not afford to vote the bread out of their children1 mouths ; that they proposed
to vote for the party that would protect the working man." Vir

Ed. Progress: In 1883 a conversation occurred between Squire
Cox of Benton tp., and the county superintendent, with reference to school license a license having
been refused, it is charged, because Cox voted for D. W. Browning. The Squire told the superintendent that be would yet get license aud
teach several schools before the c. s.
(McGce) got to be county clerk. Cox went to Morgan county and
secured a 12-months license, and is
now employed to teach the school at Centerton, at $1.50 per day. There are eight votes in the Cox family, and they will vote, on the county ticket, with the Republi
can" who have befriended them.

The loirs Ex-Prisoners ot
War After Mntson.
inuring tne past nve years a
strong pressure has been brought
to bear upon Uongress to secure leg
tsiauon mat would secure pensions
to all ex-prisoners of war. The justice of this demand is admitted,
and such a measure favored by those who want pensions paid at all. Early in the last session of Congress a bill was introduced in the House, for that purpose, known as the Robinson bill, and referred to tbe Pension Committee, of which Col. C. C. Matson is Chairman. Col. Matson expresses unbounded love for the soldiers, and favors everything that will benefit them, inoluding the pensioning of exprisoners or that is what he tells them when electioneering. This bill was buried in his committee until the middle of May following, when on an occasion when tbe committee was not full, a substitute prepared by Chairman Matson was adopted and reported as the work of the majority, although only five of the fifteen members favored it. The other ten afterwards united in a protest against the substitute, and favored the original hill. Matson'a substitute robbed the ex-prisoner's of all the intended
benefitss it required them to prove
that they were disabled, and that this disability was caused by such imprisonment something that, in
the nature of such cases, it would
be impossible to do. The protest of the real majority showed this, and showed also that the dangers and losses of life from imprisonment, were almost as great as those from battle : that the health
of most of tbe men was ruiued ;
that it was according to precedent to favor them, in all countries, in
granting pensions, and other strong
facts were presented in support of!
tbe bill. JJut it failed, and it was
more owing to the opposition of
Chairman Matson than anything
The Ex-Prisoners' Association of
Iowa, a non-partisan organization at a recent meeting, adopted a re
port ot tbe secretary, which in speaking of tbe Robinson bill, has
this reference to Matson : The Hon. C. C. Matson, as chairman, should be held up to the scorn and con
tempt or every ex-prisoner oi war, as a
man devoid of fairness and wanting in
sympathy for tbe defenders of our country .
ills protended incnosuip lor tbe soldU'rs and prcsistent refusal to submit these re
ports and compel favorable or unfavorable
action Dy congress in an outrage an I insult to every Union soldier in the land. This, however, should impel us to greater vigilance and more aggresitive work, until the final adoption of the ltobinson bill. All know how Col. Matson talks
when before the people, and this is the way he acts when in Congress, and the above is the opinion that other soldiers as well as those of Io
wa have formed of hiro, who have
heard his promises and watched his
actions.
Speaking of the action of sev
era! railroads in prohibiting their
employes from drinking, the New Albany Ledger commends the temperance work but says : "The railroads are not taking this step in the interest of temperance particularly, but as a matter of business. Sober men can manage railroads better than those who are even oc
casionally under the influence of
liquor." To this the Lznorte Argus adds that "undoubtedly a sober man is better for any purpose, and we believe that drunkards should be held personally responsible for their acts. If everybody who employs men would refuse to give work to those who habitually get drunk, it would be found that 9 out of 10 of them would slop it.
It is not safe to employ a man who
gets drnnk in any responsible bus
mess, and it is rarely profitable to do so. It is a false and dangerous
policy to teach men who drink to
excess that somebody is responsible for what they do. It only serves as an excuse for them to
continue to abuse themselves, and
it takes all the seli-reiiant and independent manhood out of them." Why is it that people who are
compelled 'to work every day of
the 313 (if they can get work) are
never troubled with hay lever, or
have to go off several months for
"needed rest," while tbe easy-going
4-hour workers who get tat sal

On Saturday night, 27th inst., Gen. Samuel A. Mason, of Pennsylvania, will speak in Bloomington in the afternoon. He was the candidate for Governor on tbe Greenback ticket in that State, four years ago, and is said to be a man of superior ability. The Fair held under the direction of the Patrons of Husbandry was quite a success. We only wished tbe poor eare-worn editors could have been there. There was over one hundred entries on stock, besides vegetables, grain, fancy articles, &o. The best show of hone ana cattle ever seen in tbe county was there, and Mrs. Henry Eller had quite a display in needle werk, in the Ladies department The Ladies did not do as wall at filling up their department as we would have liked them to do, but they did good service in preparing a splendid dinner, and tbe men aid ample Justiee when called on to partake.

Indianapolis Journal : There
must come an end to the frequent
changes in text books in the public
schools. .Nominally free, the tax
caused by tbe useless and arbitrary
changes in books makes the schools
very costly for a family with an or
dinary number of children. Books
good enough this year to teach pu
pils arithmetic from, for instance,
are good enough for the same ser
vice next year. There is no excuae
for the frequent changes of text
books and no honest explanation
tor them.
A tarin tor revenue only, or

count to decide the matter.
