DEMOCRATIC MASS CONVENTION. The democrats of Montgomery coun

tion at tho city of Crawfordsville, Ind.,
on Saturday, April 2,1892, at 10 o'clock a. m., for the purpose of selecting delegates to the following conventions, towit: Congressional, Senatorial and Joint
Legislature. Every democrat of tho county is^arnestly requested to be pres
ent and assist in making these selec
tions. WILL II. JOHNSTON, A. T. TiiOiMi'soN, Chairman, Secretary.
THE SIL72R QUESTION, The rather strange spectacle of both political parties being devided on the free coinage question is now to be seen. There are largo numbers off both democrats and republicans opposed to tho proposed free coinage of silver all over this country, and likewiso many who favor it in both parties. In the Bland bill there are many republican congressmen who will favor it. If it should come to pass that Harrison and Cleveland should bo the nominees of their respective parties, the country would see two candidates both opposed to the freo coinage measure as now proposed by its adyocates. Nine-tenths of the voters of tills country who have never made tho linancial question a study know anying about what they want or what is needed. Many of them imagine nothing would add more to prosperity than unlimmited coinageof silver. We are among those who know but little about financial matters and what is best for the people, but are freo to say, that remembering the greenback craze of a few years ago do not believe that unlimited coinage would bo a balm for any financial malady that might might overtake the country. We could have too much money. Tho money centers could be gorged with it, and its actual purchasing value could bo greatly depreciated. The financiers who closely study the question, who from long experience know all of consequence to be known about monf etary questions say that unlimited coinage is not to be desired, but would bo injurious to the business interests of the country. We prefer to submit to their judgement, and tho sober thinking men of the country will favor evuntuallv. it not now, of a veto of such a measure.
EX-UONGBESSMAN OWEN. iiix-Congresstnan Owen, whoonco lived in Crawfordsville, serving as pastor of tho Church is now Immigrant Commissioner for tho government at a salary of 84,000. Politics pays him so much better than preaching that he abandoned the pulpit ever sinco he was elected to Congress from the Logansport district some six years ago. But all is not smooth sailing with him at this time. In his present position he appears very arbitrary and dictatorial, and according to reports last week was to bo asked to resign. His sacred calling does not seem to have made him the best official in the world and there is represented to be a constant clash between him and the treasury officials and he will be asked to .resign.
A REPUBLICAN JUDGE. Under the present administration it seems that the only really necessary qualification to secure an appointment as Judge of the U. S. Circuit Court is that the applicant have a gutta percha conscience, which will not only allow him but will also cause him to deal out law according to the politics of the person under indictment. Judgo Woods has this requisite qualification wonderfully developed, as will be seen by the following extracts:
LAW FOL? DEMOCRATS.
"It is not necessary, however, in order to make a violation of tho Jaw, that the actB committed shall have been of such character aB to change or affect the result of the election in respect to representative or delegate in congress, or thai such should have been the design of the accused. It is only necessary that the forbidden act or conduct should have been in respect to ah election of which a representative or delegate in congress was voted for."—Judgo Woods, in grand jury charge, Nov. 1889.
LAW FOR REPUBLICANS.
"An indictment for illegal voting, which charges that the defendant, being without the legal qualification of a voter, voted 'at an election for a representative in congress, is defective. It should also allege that the defendant voted "for a representative in congress.'" (Judge Wood's reason for quashing 130 indictments against republicans, March 28, 1889.
EDWARDS' HEIRS.
A number of persons, terming themselves "the Edwards heirs" met in the court house one day last week to deviso plans and talked over tho proposed millions of money which they think is coming to them from an estate, said to bo in New York City and valued at over §300,000,000. Tho estate is said to consist mostly of valuable real estate in Now York City. Tho "heirs" should not lose toomucli sleep in pondering over the fabulous wealth that they aro to possess—if they can secure it. Most of them will be grayer than now and their forms more bent before they como into posssession of the property. The idea that the present holders of the property will turn it over without a long, strong and determined fight, is presumptious and nonsensical. The thing is perhaps a myth, originated by some scheming lawyers, who aro "working" these alleged heirs for big fees. We hoar often of some poor fellow or a servant girl who has accidently heirod an immense estate or big pile of money in England, Germany, California, or a long distance off, but did you ever see any people that had actually como into possession of the property! We never did.
IOWA'S PROSPECTS.
The prospects of the democracy securing their State ticket and the electoral vote of Iowa State for the democratic nominee for President, are decidedly flattering this year, regardless of tho "loyal" character of that State for the Republican party for so many years. Prohibition has split the rank and file of tho party out there. It will not down. They have attempted its enforcement, and with disastrous results to the republicans. The democrats* in steming this tide of fanaticism have been sustained by the majority, and have elected a governor twice and most of the State offices. The legislature now in session has sought to pass what is known as the Gatch bill, a sort of local option law, doing away to a great with prohibition, but this was, this week, voted down, and prohibition is still in force, and is likely to remain for some tim». The voters will not sustain this, and one of the leading issues of the campaign this year in that state will be prohibition. By good management that Stato cjin be booked for the democrats in 1892.'
THE total valuation of all taxiblejproperty in Indiana under the new tax law is §1,249,807,899—a little more than a billion dollars. The last Republican congress voted away a billion dollars. It is known ae the Billion dollar congress. Indiana is about an average stato in the matter of wealth and population. If it were sold out at its appraised value, it would take tho proceeds of the sale to pay the expenses of the Billion dollar congress. The Republicans defend their expenditures by saying that this is a Billion dollar country. Jefferson urged economy in public expenses that labor might be lightly burdened. But the Republican theory is to let money fly that the people may bo made rich by paying taxes. The people should not forget that it will require all tho property in Indiana— lands, lots, improvements, personal property, railroads and every kind of taxable property—to pay the expenses of the Billion dollar concreess.
WE consider Cleveland the most level headed democrat in America. In matters relating to tariff, finance.pensions, no man of this age has expressed more just, honest, and patriotic views. While ho may not bo recoghized to-day for his sterling qualities,coming years will credit him with ability, patriotism, and with courage to speak out what he thinks. He will not bo nominated at Chicago this year, and may never again have tho high honor of a presidential nomination from tho democracy of the countrj, yet all tho same, is there any other candidate as popular with the rank and file of tho party, or who conld secure a larger vote?
WILL the ninety-four American shoddy manufacturers join in the reduction of wages?
INDIANA'S CHOICE.
As there now seems no possibilty of either Cleveland or Hill being nominated it is the duty of the delegates from Indiana, and it should be the pleasure, to work for the nomination of ex-Gor. I. P. Gray for the nomination for President. Gov. Gray is a man of decided ability,has had much experience in political affairs, and would give the people, a good administration. The conditions are much the same that gave Harrison the republican nomination at Chicago in 1888. His Indiana partizans, New, Michener,Houstan and other close political friends worked unceasingly for him and won. So can the frionds of Gray if they will, and no delegate should attend at all who does not expect to work early and late for Indiana's candidate. He should not go there solely expecting "a good time."
THE TARIFF AND THE FAIR. There is at New Haven. Connecticut, the firm of Sangent & Co., one of the manufacturing concerns of the east. It has declined to exhibit at the World's Fair, because of the tariff. Its president says: "We pay $6 to $7 more a ton for pig iron than do our English competitors, fifty per cent more for wrought iron, more for steel, double the price for load, almost double the price for sfielter and more for copper. This high and extra cost of raw materials would not pay us to Sake an exhibit in an international exposition."
AMONG the three or four candidates for Governor before the coming democratic state convention Mr. J. G. Shanklin, of Vanderburg county, would seem to be the most prominent. Ho is well endorsed for the position, has been in politics a iong time.is thoroughly posted on the leading issue of this year, the tariff, is of agreeable disposition, and we believe will make a very worthy standard bearer of the democratic cause in Indiana. The delegates from this county can bestow their support on no worthier democrat than Mr. Shr.nklin.
REPRESENTATIVE MILLS, of Texas, was last week made a U. S. Senator from that State, and is now for the next six years to bo a prominent political figure, as he has been in the past. As the originator of the "Mills" bill, for a reduction of the tarif, he acquired much deserved reputation, as it was in the intofest of tha people, and should have ,been incorporated among the laws of the country. Ho will be heard again on this question, and with more attention than ever.
THE fact, and there seems no qestion but that it is a fact, that in the Sim Coy case, Judge Woods drew up the indictment and otherwise acted as the judge in the case, is a matter that in legal ethics should stamp hitn for years, us a .contemptible partizan, who disgraces the ermine more than anything that could occur. This report at first was received with doubt it could not be believed, yet it seems truthful. Woods perhaps did not consult Harlin on this peculiar point of law.
SENATOR HILL has been on an electioneering tour of the South, absenting himself from his post of duty six or eight days. His tour reminds one very much of Andy Johnson, who at every point where people convened to hear him would "leave the constitution with them." Johnson's tour did not benefit him nor his friends, neither will Hill's. A man who is a candidate for President should have the modesty to keep still and let his friends do the talking.:
SEVEN of the aldermen of Chicago have been indicted by the grand jury of Cook county for accepting bribes from various corporations desiring franchises from the city. They stand fair chances of being located in the penitentiary for a term of years as they should. The truth of the matter is that coungilmen in all cities are given too much latitude in many affairs, involving the city's interest, and some kind of a law to regulate such things is needed.
IN the matter of putting how postoffice buildings in a number of county seats of Indiana, Crawfordsville Beems to have been entirely omitted for some reason. It certainly needs one, the cramped up, insignificent quarters at present used for such purposo clearly indicating that fact.
A THOROUGH organizatiou of the democracy of the county should be begun at at once. Let clubs be formed in every township, and a plentiful supply of political literature scattored among the voters. If we be but thoroughly organized and united a big victory will be our reward in November.
THERE should be a largo turnout of the Union township democrats at the Court House to-day and attention paid to tho selection of proper persons as delegates to the various conventions to be held this month.
PENNSYLVANIA iron barons have begun to cut down wages. The laborers hava to furnish, as usual, tho money, this year to run the protection campaign. —1 -..V-
