TRUTH"
And Judge Robinson's Statistical
Knowledge.
la the beginning of his speech, last Sat
urday niebt, Judge Robinson stated that
Mr. Calkina made a irreat mistaae wnen
he placed the annual value of our wool
crop at $106,000,000. He referred to the Census Report of 1880, and said that tbe mount there given was 155 millions of Donnd. which at 281 cents Dr lb., the
average pneewoum oe out 4 millions oi dollars.
If Judge Robinson will turn to Fart l,of
liensus, ana page 833, ne will and a loot
note to the Wool" statement. It reads as follows: "Not including," that is the
16S millions "the following items, the
result of special investigation : Texas and California foil clip of sheep reported on
farms, 13,000,000 pounds; woolofotner "ranch" sheep. 34.000,000 pounds : pulled
wool and fleece of slaughtered sheep, 33,-
000,000 pounds t making an agirrezrate
of 240,681,751 pounds."
This was in 1879. If the Judge will
consult pace 123 of tbe Statistical Ab
stract, prepared by tbe direction of tbe Secretary at the Treasury, be wiil see that the wool erop of 1882 is there stated at
290,000,000 pounds, snowing an increase of 60,000,000 pounds in 1881 and 1882.
Allowing toe same increase lor i8H3 and 1884, we have for 1884, a wool crop of 340000,000 pounds, which at 281 casta, the
average price, gives a value of 97,000,000.
w noeyer unuertaKes to reinie tne statistics of Mr. Calkins will have a task be
tore bim, requiring a statistical knowledge infinitely greater than that of Judge Beb-
BOB. Aaain : The Judm states that our ex
ports of Domestic Manufactures ware but 1103.000, 080 annnually.
How tne value of toes manutnetu ries, exported ttt the yean 1881 was $31,940,238; and the amount of these exported manufactories is greater in value than
our export of cotton, en which, tbe South would nave us believe bangs all our foreign trade. Tbe value ot our exports of do
mestic manntaetarea greater than tne value of our exports of cotton 1 1 1
Seeing what kind of statistical know
ledge Judge Robinson possessed. I was
"Set willing to stand in the cool air longer,
ana so lelt, wondering 01 what value was Mr. East's assertion, that Judge Robinson could not tell aa untruth, even if be want
ed to. I. BOLLMAN.

afGo to J. M. Barnes for good
Photos. His work speaks fer itself,
Doh't delay ordering your Fall
suit till McGee is so crowded with other orders as to be unable to give
veo nrompt attention. That is
the way it is likely to be, it you put it off .toe long. He is receiving some of the handsomest goods in his line it has ever been our fortune to
examine. Tne new jail piece goods are very tasty, and McGee
knows just how to cut and make up these goods. He doesn't simply draw a taps line over you and cut
the suit so many inebea this way
and so many the other, but he looks
carefully to the building np or let-
tine down of defective points. In
short McGee is an " Artist Tailor,"
and the true Tailor is a real Artist. His cosy store is on the south side. Pull though it may be with the
average dealer at this season of the
year, Charley Mobley does a good
business all the year round. He has served a lifetime apprenticeship
at the business, and is not a "Spring and Fall" Merchant only. He understands the requirements
of all seasons of the year, and so
has a generous and satisfactory trade at the season of the year when some men are doing comparatively nothing. If you want to see a well assorted stock of goods, suited to both sexes, and to town and coun
try trade, go to the 'Golden Rule." The advice given from week to week by the. Progress is being
heeded, as the crowds of customers
that throng Hemp Wilson s Provision Store would indicate. The store is conveniently located in "Progress Block," corner of 6tb
street and College Avenue, and special efforts are directed toward
keeping the choicest coffees, teas,
sugars, and other like supplies
The stock of Glassware and Queensware is well selected and is sold at

CALKINS.
One of the grandest day and
night meetings ever seen in Bloom
ington, occurred on Wednesday of
last week. Major Calkins, Repub
lican candidate for Governor, spoke
in Nashville, Brown co., on Tues
day, to the largest Republiean gath
ering ever seen in that county, and
on Wednesday morning came acros
tbe country by carriage, to Bloom
ington.
The court house and grounds
had been handsomely draped, and a gentle shower the previous
night had laid the dust and cooled
the atmosphere especially for this occasion it seemed. It was diffi
cult to find even stauding room in the portion of the court house park
where the joint wigwam is erected,
and after the immense crowd had settled into positioned the preliminary remarks had been made,
Maj. Mulky introduced the next
Governor of Indiana. Maj. Cat
kins' appearance was the signal for
a series of enthusiastic cheers that
were continued some minutes, and
it was some time before quiet was restored so that he could proceed
with his speech. The vast audience was a critical
one, and the thousands of eyes that
scrutinized him seemed to return a
verdict as favorable as the enthusi
asm was great. Major Calkins is a splendid specimen of physical manhood, and in apparent vobust health. He is fully six feet in bight, but so well proportioned that he does not seem quite so tall. His hair is blonde, but tinged with gray made prematurely gray by seven months incarceration in a rebel prison and he wears a moustache and goatee. His face is a kindly, pleasing one a face that is an index.to a warm, sympathetic heart. Calkins is just such a man as yon would confide in if you were in trouble, expecting sympathy and assistance and our word for it you would not be disap
pointed. In every way he is a grand candidate. Maj. Calkins was somewhat hoarse, having made speeches in forty counties in the State sometimes two or three speeches each day but his clear-cut utterances, bis logical statements, and his earnest eloquence held his audience spell-bound one hour and forty-five minutes. He was followed by Capt. Friedy of Bedford, a speaker who needs no eulogy from the Progress. He is always a welcome speaker and an honored guest. At night the entire population of Bloomington seemed to have shut up house and come to the meeting. A gentleman from Greensburg, Mr. God dard, was the first speaker, an d be was followed by Hon. A. H. Harryman of Martinsville. But the principal interest of the meeting seemed to center in the future Governor of the great State of Indiana. He was presented to tbe audience by Chairman Browning, and the cheers, waving of handkerchiefs and bats that followed, lasted it seemed fully ten minutes. The reception accorded Major Calkius could not but have been flattering to him, as it was an undisguised index of the popular feeling toward him as a man and a candidate. He spoke about a half an hour, and his utterances were listened to with the most eager interest by the vast audience. He went to Greencastle on the noon train Thursday. Calkins is the best "mixer" that has been on the ticket for many years, and has a warm grasp of the hand and a kindly word for every one. At tbe conclusion of his afternoon speech he shook hands with and was introduced to a thousand or more men and women, and so at night. It has since been learned that
Maj. Calkins drove from Nashville j
to Martinsville on Tuesday evening, and appeared at tbe court house,
We use "Cream Flour" sold by J. B. Clark, because wo find it is tbe best. We use "Cream Flour" sold by J. B. Clark, because we find it is the best. where he was met by un immeuse throng of citizens. He did not attempt to make a speech, but talked to the people for half an hour in a manner that set the large audience wild with delight. He gavo a very plain, practical and telling talk on the tariff, and the action of the Democratic party in Congress and in convention on that subject. During his address ho was interrogated by an individual in the crowd with the statement that he (the questioned was a Democrat and an old soldier, and a member the G. A. R.; that he had read in the Sentinel, a few days ago, that in a resent speech Major Calkins had made tbe declaration that "any soldier who would vote the Democratic ticket ought to be shot," and wanted to know if these were his sentiments. The interruption caused some confusion in the audience, but Major Calkins thanked tke person for his question, and at once proceeded to demolish tbe canard in a way that pleased the audience immensely. He said that he always took off his hat to a Demo
cratic soldier: that while he, him'
self, had gone to the war, he did not deserve so much credit, because he was and always had been a Republican. More, he had been all his life taught to believe that it was
not right to lash a man on the back
in slavery :- that it was wrong to
sell a child from its mother's breast;
that a man had the right to defend
tbe virtue of his wife, his sister, or his daughter, and, therefore, as the
war was the revolt of the pro-slav
ery power against the government,
it was comparatively easy for him to go to the war : but that with
his comrade from the Democratic
party it was different. He did not
have tbe sanction of his party. On the contrary, he went directly
against the party teachings; he not
only did his duty to bis country, but he broke his party ties to do so. Therefore he repeated : "I always
take off ray hat to a Democratic
soldier for the Union." He further declared that he recognized the right of the soldier and every body else, whether high or low, white or black, to vote for whom he pleases. This is one of the sacred privileges for which our fathers fought, and this is a cardinal principle of tbe Republican party ; but he was sorry he could not say so much for the Democratic party. He would say to the soldier who votes with Democrats, however, that he ought to leave the party, for he is in mighty bad company. The speaker's answer to his in-
terruNs'.er was received with rounds of cheers. He then paid a glowing
tribute to the Union armies, especially to the Army of the Tennes
see aud his old commander, General Logan. His eulogy of Logan was very fine, indeed, and he closed
amid storms of applause. He then
introduced Bruce Carr, candidate for State Auditor, who spoke for a few minutes.
The meeting was then declared
adjourned, but the crowd refused
to go, and Major Calkins and Mr. Carr held an ovation for half an hour or more, during which almost every man and woman in the audience was introduced to and shook hands with our. gallant standardbearers. They created a very favorable impression, and the meeting was a great success.

Ol. MoLahlan, a well-known railroad man, a brother of Dr. C. D. McLahlan, was riding from Harrodsburg to bis home in Polk tp.,'Sunday a week, when the horse fell with bim, MoLahlan was seriously bruised and had several ribs broken. Last winter he stepped off tbe rear car of a passenger train, and was almost killed, and had not been at work long when the last accident occurred. The many friends of R. J. Kirkwood, brother-in-law of tbe Browning boys, will be interested in the following item which we clip from the Dalton (Ga.) Citizen: Our young friend, R. J. Kirkwood, Republican nominee for Congressional ban.
ors from this district, will begin stumping the "blooody 7th" next Saturday, and will

is from Indiana and has only been resident of North Georgia about a year but duriag that time he has made many friends all over the district, and is one of the most popular men in his party. Of courso be will oot be elected. Several rather aristocratic
Democrats were discussing county politics a few evenings since, and one of these said : " Well I don't see what the Republicans were th inking ef when they nominated that dirty-faced black-handed Dobson . for Sheriff!" The Progress had not seen it in that light before, but they are right. Tbe idea of nominating a dirty mechanic, is somewhat revolting to the aristocratic tastes of the Democratic party, Dobson handles the dirty feet of horses, pounds the black, rough iron, takes the smutty coal in his hands, and gets his face as black as that of a chimney sweep. He i uat fit for aa aristocratic candidate he will do, however,

Our county ticket is a good one, and realizing this, the Democrats are preparing to make a des
perate effort to secure its defeat. They must be met at every point,
and Republicans should not be satisfied merely with electing their
candidates, but large and decided majorities should be secured, and
they can be if the proper effort is put forth. Isaac Claman must be retained in the Treasurer's office another term ; Frank Dobson, the
hard-working blacksmith, must be chosen as our next Sheriff by a round majority; Henry McCalla, a Perry township farmer, will receive
a rousing majority for Surveyor; Dr. J. D. Maxwell, jr., should be given a very decided majority for
the office of Coroner, and W.M.A. Kirby and J. H. Fulford will be our next County Commissioners. The entire ticket will be elected : Judge, Prosecutor, Congressman, all, and every one the only question is as to majorities : will they be one, two, or three hundred.
