McKINLET NOMINATED.
At the republicans State Convention last week McKiuley, the author of the Mckinley tariff law was nomiujued for Governor of Ohio. The contest ill that state this year will without question be the tariff issue, and the people by their votes in November next will emphacise their approval or not of the tariff law as passe.i by the last congress, If the democracy use ordinary discretion in the selection ot a suitable leader for Governor in opposition we do not ttiiuk there will be much question as to the result next fall. They can, if they will, elect tlieir caudidate. The people are daily becoming more enlightened as to the iniquities ot the McKiuley law, have learned much since the last election, and will make no mistake in opposing any advocate of it. They see what all along has been declared that the tariff is a tax, that in the enactment of such a law as the present a few are benefitted to the injury of the many, tbat it operates unequally that while it ereatiy favors a few the masses are injured by it. McKinley was defeated for re-election in his own district in Ohio last November. In spite of the eijonnouB amount of money thrown into the district by the republican managers it did no good. The people repudiated him. This was the opinion of him and his law iu three counties of Ohio last year, and it will be as equally as pronounced all over the State this year. Ohio is generally a strong reliable republican state, but four times withiu the past twenty years the democracy have elected the Governor. The republicans have put McKiuley lorward this year to get an expression from the people of the present tariff law. Tliis is wise. They will retire McKiuley early and the result of the balloting iu Ohio, we believe, will place him out of the lield as a presidential candidate in 1S92. Let the democracy of our neighboring
State make the correct selections as candidates on their State ticket, let there be no petty bickerings, let their advocacy of this or that question be plaiu, distinct and unequivocal as expressed in their platform, and they cannot but be victorous. The people are with them, the tide is In their favor, and disgentious only among the party cau prevent it from winning a glorious victory. The contest in Ohio will this year attract more than ordinary attention, as the people, the great laboring masses, are greatly interested in the result.
GIVING BOND.
"I want to say to you now," said *a wellknown citizen, "that in a few years more it will be impossible for auy citizen, I care not who he is, who may he elected county treas. urer, to give p. bond satisfactory to the commissioners. The defalcation of Dwiggins and Goben iu that office, the shortage of Henry, trustee of Union township, and the shortage of trustees iu other townships, Madison for instance, have made responsible citizens exceedingly cautious and shy about putting their names ou auy paper whatever. The treasurer will have to be iion bound, copper lined and of the purest metal to fill the office. Future incumbents of the office will have to get some eastern security company to go on their bond, iT such a thing can he done, or else they will have to throw UD the job.
The bond required of the county treasurer, as custodian of the fuuds coming into his hands is $1550,000. Mr. Hutton, treasurerelect, has secured a sufficient number or names and will submit the bond for approval to the commissioners iu a few weeks, out in obtaining the signatures of responsible men to his bond, encountered just such obstacles as spoken of above. The shortages and unbusiness like methods of former incumbents of the office rvnder the securing or a bond of the size required a task difficult to accomplish. It is a fact without question that there is more imposition aucl dead beatism attempted on the treasurer of a county Mian all the other officers combiued, and uuiess he has the ability to frequently say "no" iu very emphatic terms, he is quite liable to be imposed up»n every week he is iu office. Dick, )iu aud Harry go to him to borrow $ 10 or $20, "just for a few weeks,'" members of some church or social organization desire a Btnall contribution from him for this or that purpose, Mr. Smith, Brown or Jones, asks him to write out iheir tax receipt, as tliey don't- want to "ruu delinquent," will pay iu a few days, and the few days ruu maybe into a year, etc. We believe Mr. Hutton has the "ability to say "no" at the proper time, will ruu the office on strictly business principles, and will make a good official.
Tine PHBPLK'S party demandH an income tax. So do the Prohibitionists. The democratic party should take the same position on this question. The last congress spent a bil. lion dollars of the people's money. Where does the money come from to meet this vast expenditures? Indiana's share of it will be more than §25,000,000. It will require fifty dollars from every head of a family to pay it. Who pays it'.' The man who buys a barrel of salt, a suit of clothes or a tin can, helps to pay it. Government taxes are collected ou what you buy. The miser pays the least because he buys the least Is it any wonder that the laboring and producing classes of Indiana are no better off than they were ten years ago, when the great sum of government taxes they have paid is considered'.'
With the exception of sugar, the McKiuley tariff tax was increased on nearly everything the people are compelled to buy. The very rich can stand this increase. The poor cannot. An income tax would force the millionaires to pay their share towards the support of government. It would, to a certain extent, restrict wealth to proper bounds. It would be a just law, and it enactmeut would lessen the burdens that are now imposed on the many by a system of taxation that is manifestly unjust. We want no moneyed aristocracy in this country, aud an income tax would go far towards preventing its formation.
The best surplus available in the United States treasury, last Monday, was $8,180,000,
OFFICE SEEKING.
A correspondent of an eastern newspaper from Washington complaius loudly of the small salaries paid clerks by the Government. Let 'em complalii. No body in particular cares. The everlasting greed for offices ia this country has become one of its greatest curses. A perpetual office seeker is one ot little benefit to himself or the community, and yet there are men all over the land who have made the business of office holding or office seeking the main thing all their lives. They become uever ceasing nuisances by their importunities.
They dou't like the toil and strife of a quiet unofficial life. Their minds are on office forever. Office holding has demorllzed and ruined thousands of men. Most of meT once holding a lucrative office seem entirely unfitted for auy other bnsiness thereafter. We see instances of that right here in our own county. There are many men who have done uothing since retiring from office. They cannot get down to houest square toil again after throwing up a lucrative position. And how they worry and struggle through life is remarkable to notice. Thej have acquired habits of laziness, sloth and degradation, from holding office that they cannot throw off. Look around and see the condition of many ex-officials in this county, and see what it has done for them. Some are drunkards, others have questionable modes of gaining a livelihood, and still others are too lazy to do good for themselves or any one else. Future generations of young men will find that the old motto, "Let the office seek you. Don't you seek it" is much the best to practice.
SUICIDE'S CLUB.
For some yoars, what is known as the "Suicide's Club," has been in existence in New York. The club originally consisted of IS members and most of them of German nativity. The agreement upon each member is that he will kill himself in auy manner he may select within a specified time. Ten members of the society have fulfilled this obligation by various means, some by poison, others with revolers, etc. The remaining eight expect to g) by similar means of self-destruction. The eighteen were lunatics, no doubt, and the living eight of the club should be taken at once to some asylum aud confined within its walls during the remainder ot their lives. They are mtemplating self-murder aud should be prevented. It is remarkable what numbers of abominable cranks are to be found in every locality and iu every strata of society, yet this "Suicide's Club" has certainly attained au eminence in the way of crankism.
THK Good Templar organization of this city must ho composed of many narrow contracted and petty individuals judging from reports of their treatin* nt of Dr. Griffith lately. He was expelled from their lodge of which he had been au active and honorable member for testifying favorably toward a man who intended to retail liquor. Neither the lodge nor Dr. Griffith could testify differently, as they know nothing to the contrary, but it was enough. He had spoken favorably of a mau who proposed retailing whiskey and must go and he did. Some of Griffith's friends assert that the whole thing was "set up" ou him by some ex. cessively good members of the order, that he was summoned especially to testify before the Commissioners in order to expel him. If true WH should think the Doctor could gladly part company with a society winking at such conduct on me part of some of its members.
Tur. supreme court has decided that the old state board of agriculture cannot be legislated out of existence. The decisions of some of the courts of this state are as mysterious and incomprehensible almost asjthe works of Providence, and are certainly pasi finding out. The legislature has the power to create a board of agriculture butlhas not the power to dissolve it. One thing sure it should have this power. Of all the relics of a past age that needs dissolving the state board is certainly one of them. Its members belong to the times of "our grandfather's days," and know nothing of the wants, the spirit and the energy of the present hour. The next legislature may be able to grasp the matter correctly, anil loosen the hold of the present band of antediluvians of agriculture known as the state board.
THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY REVIEW.
THERE seems to be au enormous increase in the army of heretics lately and a great departure from old established creeds aud forms of religion. A Methodist minister atToronto, Canada, last week was suspended from church for a year for preaching "There is no Material Hell." The Methodist church comes as near being orthodox as any established religious organization iu existence. Its members very generally profess to believe in a literal hell of fire and brimstone for the punishment of all sinners, and now to have a minister ol' that denomination say there is no such place is a matter of surprise. But the world dies move and with it are being cast aside many heretofore established and deep rooted opinions regarding the future reward or punishment of mankiud.
THK disaffected republicans who held an anti-Harrison meeting at Indianapolis the other day may succeed in creating enough feeling against him to prevent his re-noininatiou next year for president, but if their genuine aim is to create a boom for Greshain we believe it will be a failure. Gresham's followers, it is noticed, while loud iu his praise seem as children iu politics, in fact they know nothing about manipulation, strategy, enthusiasm or aaything else required to win in a political contest. They exhibited this very forcibly at Chicago in 18SS. They lack experience or energy in political matters. The Harrison men led by New were ahead of them at all points. So it would be again. Greshain advocates are novices. They don't know andI are too ojd to learn.
WAKING UP.
The action of the trustees of Wabash College last week in appointing various committees to look after this or that interest connected with the institution, agreeing to meet twice each year, also entertaining the matter of co-educa-tion, would indicate that the management had awakened at last to its own welfare and concluded that to keep up with the procession it must be alive and alert. There can be no doubt from the advantages this institution enjoys in the matter of endowment, library, buildings, grounds, etc., that it can, with live men at its head, be made the leading educational institu- self tion of the west. The trustees should interest themselves more and make it such.

A MR. JOBDON. a geologist, and who is said to be well up iu matters relating to natural gas, has lately been visiting the gas fields in the vi. clnity of Finley, Ohio. He reports the supply gradually diiniuishing, and thinks tbat in two years more the gas will fail altogether. He thinks the same misfortuue will overtake the "gas belt" of Indiana also, but it can safely be entertained that none of the newspapers or residents of that region will catch the idea for a minute or desire any one else to do so.
THOS. B. BYKNKS,of Evansville, a well known democratic politician, died on Saturday morning. He was born in Newark, N. J., August 21,18-15. He was of Irish extraction. He was in the wholesale tobacco busiuess at Evansville, and was man of good business capacity. Mr. Byrness was twice nominated for treasurer on the Democratic ticket (18S6-88), and defeated with the ticket. He was defeated for the nomination in 1890 by the present demo cratic incumbeut of the office, Albert Gall.
THK Harrisou administration has gotten along now sufficiently to show a deficit in the treasury. The expenditures &f the government during the month of June are over $S,000,000 more than the entire revenues of the government for the same time. A "billion dollar congress," such as the last republican congress, can soon reduce receipts much lower than expenditures.
GRANULATED sugar is 20 pounds for one dollar, and therefore cheap enough. The producers of sugar are paid a bounty by the government. The people pay these bounties. Therefore while there is a saving at the spigot in one way there is a loss at the bunghole the other, aud this is just what the McKinley bill amounts to, so far as sugar is concerned.
No more silver dollars will be coined after the end of this month but there are about 5,000,000 trade dollars in the treasury, which are to be recoiued into standard dollars early in July, to swell the available cash balance in the treasury.

Tin Xovnr Kail in emudy. Those who continue to suffer with contagious blood disease, after having gone through the usual course of treatment, have one consolatiou: They can fall back on the never-failing specific, S. P. S. Sometimes they suffer from the disease itself, and sometimes from the effects of the treatnieut itself, especially if mercury and the other miueral poisons have been employed. Iu either case they can find an infallible remedy in S. S. S. It would be better to take advantage of the remedy before undergoing other treatment, as thousands have done and are doing, but it is not everybody's foresight that is as good as his hindsight.
Merit Wins.
We desire to say ty our citizens, that for years we have been Belling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have uever handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satisfaction. We do not hesitate to refund the purchas price, if satisfactory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great popularity purely on their merits. Nye & Co druggists.
