A WAR CRT NO LONGER.

As an inspiration the republicans bare always saiil, "As Maine goes, so goes the the Uuiou," an implication that all other siateB or enough of them at least, would so cast their votes, as to gain the Naiioual political vectory for them. Maine, we believe, never iu fact, went in any other direction ll.an for the republican party. This is to be changed uow though none too eoou, and tho inspiring words will not bo used with such assunuce hereafter. They are 'ahout to adopt the Australian system or balloting at elections. They are to lu'.re a free electiou aud a fan count. Of course this v/iii chauge tfce poulicai Cc-n! iexiou of thiugs in Maiae. It lias heretofore been a poor State for t. proimuauuu of ueiiioeralie uriucip e», but bitfli taritT, prohibition, aud fanaticism have ruled atallnmes. Hut this will to a groat extent be gr«atlj chauged bj lue uew sys'aui of holding elections. Voters will uot be intituiibted nor t'lrHntened. Tin wealthy manufacturers canuot bnlldozo their employers iuto voting us ltt?y Gesite. the Blames, Reeds, Neat Dows, aud all the other promoters of tariff, political tyranny and fanaticism iu general, wili no* Inve the sway tiiey have heretofore had .iuior.g :ha people of that Slate. The people will be free to voto as tliey desue and will lo so under Hie leatures of the system whioh have beeu adopted in many of the slates of the Union. The uew system is fatal every where to the nurture and growth of the republican party. It pievea.-t to a great extent the bribery, trickery ami deception which have beeu always paramount \snU it iu an its political wars. The republican MtateHiiu ii may create uew states whose electoral vole they expect to carry by their usual scheming but while at tlii- will lost* many of their olJ reliable stale.* which are to adopt honest means for carrying on elections. The democrats now have Governors in states heretofore strongly republican, Iowa and Michigan for lustauce, and the adoptions of the Australian ballot system will no doubt, place other states iu the democratic column. It would be pleasant to learn that others of the New England stales had followed the example of Maine.

COMPARISON.

A coloted lawyer at Indianapolis, alive to tlio neglect of his people by republicans, who always just a short time before an electi* profess such apparent deep interest in the welfare of the Africau, thus makes comparison between the official acts of (iov. Hovey aud ex-liov. tlray: 1. Ho lias bad more appointments to glvo than any executive preceding him. Has he appointed any negro? If so, who? 2. Did ho in any message to the legislature say anything about the repeal of the amalgamation laws of this state'.' If so, when?

S. Has bo pardoned or paroled any negro incarcerated in the penitentiary or other penal institutions of the state? If so, who? 1. On the other hand, Governor Gray remitted fines iu Marion aud Hamilton counties aud pardoned a life time prisoner from Vigo county. 2. He affixed his signature to the civil rights bill, which gave to the negro equal rights to the public inns and equal rights and privileges in common with all other citizens of the state. o. He signed the militia law striking out the word "white" from the statutes of Indiana as it came to him passed by a Democratic legislature.

Colored men of Indiana, ponder well when you come to say by your ballot whether or not this man shall be either president or vicepresident when the record of ex-Governor Isaac I'. Gray, is presented alongside of his. With a knowledge of the recorrt, if a colored Democrat should hold bis peace the "rocks would cry out."

That fellow reads and reflects and knows thoroughly what he is talking about.

THE NEW TAX LAW.

It is of the Mtinost importance that the uew tax law be administered by an efficient and energetic county assessor. Ia this county, personal property has usually been assessed at less than two-thirds of its actual valne. The new law properly enforced will remedy all this. Of this law the Indianapolis News says "This must necessarily lead to a very large increase in assessment valuations, probably a doubling of the aggregate amount and as the people are unprepared for this great change there is certain to be a general outcry. The purpose of the law, however, is commendable. It is a demand for bonestr, anil its object is to equalize taxation. The old law permitted undervaluations, evasion, perjury aBd other species of dishonesty. It was deplorably corrupting in its tendencies. The attempt to put the system on an honest basis should be welcomed hj all good citizens. It is only necessary that they should fully understand it to proptrly appreciate its good aims, but unless it is understood, and unless the assessors throughout the Stato perform their duties faithfully and without discrimination, it will be a lamentable failure.

MAYORALTY IN CHICAGO.

There are live candidates for Mayor in Chicago to be voted for in May next and city politics in that place are becoming quite interesting. Carter Harrison, a former mayor elected by the democrats, and a. one tima having much influence, is this year running independently agaiust the regular democratic nominee, havius failed to rule the roast as heretofore. Tho most contemptible figure in politics is he who, having heretofore beun honored by his party, will change around ami seek to encompass its defeat because his popularity may have been mortified or bis strength weakened by his acts. Sticli ingratitude is sooner or later soundly rebuked, aud Harrison will find himself a cypher hereafter in the political field, "Indepondeut" candidates generally are per. mitted to remain independent the res' of thi lives and the party moves right along ins- »t well a*d olTtimes better without them.

It may sound glorious aud eloquent to be termed a "fast young man," "a high rollpr." "a brick." etc., but most »f the public at large don't view it that way at all, but hare very geueially a most eontemptable npinioH of those classed in such a categary. The experience which these two gentlemen have passed through, the testimony of witnesses as to where tln-y had been, and the condition they were in, the sad features of the tragedy, e.e., Utouid certainly impress upon their minds tho necessity of at once turning over a new leaf before traveling life's incertain road much longer.

proposition to amend the constitution of the slate to be submitted for decision to the people at the election next year, lengthening the sessions of the legislature hereafter from R) to 90 days will, we believe, be voted down. The sestious are too expensive as it is, and,it members would enter into the work before them in a business line manner sixty days would be ample time to make all the laws needed by tho commonwealth. Better have some acts passed regulating the nomber of bills each member shall present during the session, limiting the number of long winded and useless speeches the "leaders" of each btanch are to make during the term, preventing lobby members from entering th6 halls and committee rooms, lessening the number of excursions to this or that state institution and much other old time huuibuggery. A few judicious acts passed like these will givs the legislature ample time to work within the present limit.

TAX DODGING.

A remarkable instance of dodging taxation was discovered some time since in Caroll county. A. T. Bowen, capitalist, and worth probably from $'8,000,iiti0 to §1,000,000, died at bis home in Delphi. He, by intimidation, had prevented assessors and connty treasurers from ever assessing him for anything like he should have beeD, and he never paid taxes on over $l'i,000. After his death the officials began to hunt up his property. The county treasurer was appointed administrator, and a strong legal war beiween him aud the heirs has been going ou ever since. Last week the h»-irs quietly left the state taking away $2,000,000 in money, bonds, mortgages, etc. Tliey feared the new tax law and future taxstionThe Bowen estate has plenty of real estate iu

Indiana, ana the treasurer, if he has the proper nerve, can collect all of the taxes due oa property for past years that the owner failed to report to the assessor.

republicans may probably feel like congratulating themselves that Cleveland is not to bo the democratic nominee for president iu 1800 on account of his pronounced opposition to the free coinage of silver, yet they should remember that the question of far more importance, and which will be the leading one, is that of tariff reform. Whether Cleveland is or is not nominated the tariff is what interests the people much more. Reduce tho duties on imports to reasonable figures, and the free coinage and all other monetary questions will •oou after he regulated to the satisfaction of the people.

AI.I, talk about any difficulty arising between this country and Italy over the execution by a mob a few days ago at New Orleans of eleven Italians will amount to nothiug. These men were not killed because thej wero Italians hut for the more important fact that they were murderers and assassins aud had beeu for years, and that the law seemed powerless to reach them. It is very probable that the Italian government was as pleased to hear of their extermination as were the indignant citizens who brought it about.

Farmers' Alliance has done more

The farmers have at last learned that the bloody shirt has been constantly flaunted in every campaign to draw attention from the system of slavery imposed upon them by the protected lords ot America.

THLT DEVIL LET LOOSE.

There Beems to be an epidemic of pure snsse ness prevailing in society at this time but it is mostly of a character that the civil law is powerless to preveut or to punish. A great many people seem tt aet as though they thought that all that is necessary for them to do iu order to be good citizens In the community is to live ami act so as to evade the penalties of the civ law, wi'hsnt seeming to realize that there is such a code as the moral law. It is only occasionally that ttie courts are able to remove the mask that hides the licentiousness and profligacy of some of th* hypocrites that walk our streets with an air of complacency aud self-assurance that ought to p«t to shame the Devil himself. I kuow there are some people who claim there is no Devil because they can, uot see or hear him. It does seem to me that any observing person can both sue aud hear him or his emissaries almost every day in every grade of society, which is glossed over with deceit aud hyoocricy until people are not what they seem. Dishonesty and deception seems to be the rule rather than excoption, for lying, fraud, triokery aud decs-it meets us at every turn iu the fields l' trade aud commerce, whilst mock modesty, sliain virtue and notorious dishonesty sit iu the front pews of some of our fashiooable aud aristocratic churches. At public gatherings and in crowded thoroughfares oue is confronted with or jostled agaiuBt by brazen-faced women aud blear-eyed iuebriates who take more delight iu a baccanalianrevelry than they do in thu peace aud quiet of home and family. We can not walk our streets without either seeing, hearing or smelling the Devil. We can see him iu those dens of iuftuny and sinks of iuiqaity that are open ni^ht aud day, aud that are in league with Hell aud iu covenant with the Devil. The emissaries of Satan resort to every device and adornment that will attract and allnre the young, the idle, the profligate, the licentious, the iutemperate and the vicious into their dens, which are only the auteroouiB to the abode of the damned and the vestibules to Hell. The oaths, execrations, and foul language that we may hear, not only in and about those places, but in places of pubic resort, such as bar-rooms, waiting-rooms, at public gatherings, on the highways, and many times, too, in what the world calls fashionable society, is enough to make the blood of a sensitive person to run cold, and their cheeks to redden with the blush of shame The fumes of tobacco smoke that are puffed iu your face, the foul stench arizing from stale beer aud other poisonous drinks that we hale in passing those resorts, are but the perfumes of Hell iu which a sensitive olfaclory may get a sniff at the infernal regions. The probabilities are that the present state of things will continue until the millennium, or until all good people put the stamp of condemnation on every species of meanness, wrong and villiany, and until preachers in their funeral sermons cease to condone the sins and transgressions of the iutemperate, the dishonest, the viscious and the vile.

Mprit Winn,

We desire to ray to our citizen*, that for years wo have beeu telling I)r, King's Ney Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's Hew Life Pills, Buckliu's Aruiea Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfaction. We do not hesitate to guarantee them every time, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price, if satisfactory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great popnlarity purely on their.merits.

Some of the scientists who make a specialty of folk lore have lately been making inquiries about the malady which the coantry people called sprmg fever. It is a genuine malady, though more disagreeable than serious. Yot it should be taken note of. While the scientists are inquiring about the tone of the malady, those who are suffering the lassitude, nervousness aud melancholy, that are its symptoms, should rn» the disease out ot their systems by means of that more subtle scientist and folk-etirest—S. S. S. This is particulary necessary, sinee spring fever leaves the system in snch condition that it saccuiubs readily to diseases that are more dangerous and less easily controlled. S. S. s. is a preventive as well as a remedy.
