THE C0XEY ARMIES.

The slow plodding march of the Coxey armies from different parts of the country, but all heading for Washington City, is just now attracting considerable attention. Many pretend to see in it mutterings of a coming storm which portend great evil to the country. The armies desire to appal Congress by their numbers and force it. as they assert to do something in the way of new and wholesome laws in the interest of laboring men. They imagine their presence will scare Congress into at once providing some means for their personal benefit. But it will do nothing of the kind. The army is made up of many discordant elements, A few honestly think that when their numbers are gazed upon by Congressmen it will act at once, anether part of the army is composed of tramps, who care nothing for anybody nor anything so long as food is furnished them free and they do not have to work, still another portion of the armies is composed of sincere, honest laboring men who believe Congross will aid them so soon as they make known their wants. The leaders of the '•March on to Washington." no doubt hope ultimately to reap a grer pecuniary benefit, and are not moved so much by their great interest for laboring men as for their own personal benefit.

There is no use nor sense in this movement of .thousands of men on to aahingtoii. They cannot legally be fed while there from means from the public treasury, hut will be simply objects of charity. Congress will act for them just as speedily without vheir presence as with it. Washington City has already enough of its own poor to take care of without any new ones coming in. For the present state of affairs in this country which the laboring man is compelled to sutler. there are reasons dating back for thirty years. The most important of these is the fact that legislation in Congress has been more generally in favor of the wealthy. Congressmen have fo.heU to money loauers. gold bugs and such and passed by the needs and necessities of the poor and micdle classes. The rich have increased their possessions rapidly while the poor have become more numerous as the years roll bv. This is one cause for tramps, and poverty and distress among the middle and poor classes all over the country. Ilence the movement of these "armies" at this time. The thing has come to a head. Laws are too one sided in their operation in the matter of "boss" and employee. Our Congressmen lack too often in knowledge of the condition of the people, and act too often for the benefit of one class in particular. Ihe "armies" will effect: nothing, but will have to be sent back to the dilferent parts of the country from which they came. We look for no particular crisis nor danger from their appearanco at the national capital.

in the platform of the repub

lican State convention says: "We condemn the reckless and extravagant administration of the financial affairs of this State, whereby the people are subjected to unjust and unnecessary burdens of taxation, by an increased assessment of property and an increased rate of taxation and by a multiplication of offices to be supported by the tax [layers of the State." The "burdens of taxation" here alluded to are evidently railroads and wealthy corporations of the State, that previous to the present wise iaw passed by a democratic legislature, had been able to dodge from much tar.ation. They of course, are friendly to the republican party, because it is a party for the classes—not the masses. It is probable some railroad attorney drew up the resolution if the fact could be ascertained. Another plank asks for a "liberal construction" of the pension laws, as if the government had not already been liberal enough in that line, by paving in thousands of instances pensions to men who never smelled gunpowder, or if in the services suffered little or nothing from its duties, but are to-dav doing nothing nor never will in the way of toil 60 'long as the government, through unscrupu lous politicians, can be forced to make them a living by passage of jaws unjust both to the Oeserving and those that are not. Oh demagogury, oh humbug! how many sins are committed in your names.

RRV,OWF.NS,

the head of the repub

lican State ticket and candidate for Secretary of State, was once a preacher here of the Christian denomination. He quit religion for politics, eight or ten years ago, and found so much more money in the latter over tho business of saving souls, that he has followed it ever since. Liko Rev. Ira Chase he finds so much more money in politics than in the pulpit that he prefers it even if it is not one-half as decont.

MOUNTANEOUS FEES.

The greatest strife for any official nomination at the republican State conviction last week was for that of Attorney General. There were from five to six candidates. The office under Green

tive apportionments for years, and we are to-day throttled by a gerrymander that must be overturned." [Applause.) It is remarkable how these republicans forget ancient history. They forget how Oliver P. Morton when iu the zenith of his power twentv or more vears

lirst introduced the gerrymander feat-

ure into the politics of Indiana, .and how

ans then, and how they chuckled over

our discomfiture. We do not approve

scoundrels of either party, yet when the republicans utter such eloquent diatribes against it they should remember that at one time they warmi\ approved ami doubtless would do again under different circumstances, of a policy which thev now so loud Iv condemn

THE

Smith, the present incumbent, is said I ceive good long sentences to the pem to bo worth from J.'1,0,000 to *40.000 per tentiarv. as the evidence heretofore ad year. It is an outrage, a shame, that vanced shows they deserve. the laws can be so constructed that auy man should receive such immense sums of money from the tax payers of Indiana. It comes from the tax-payers. The reason for the strife for the place is seen at a glance. What a los« that the State

canuot have legislators, who uuintnui- If it may do before it is over. dated by threats or uubought. canuot regulate all these questions of unreasonable and extortionate fees and salaries paid to officials. No man in the State of Indiana should be allowed for his m-

dhidual senices over c3,000 per year,

come from what source it would. Yet human liko they will gladly take 650.000 per year if the law can be so juggled as to allow them to do so. The matter of high fees seems to be an outrage in some quarters that has to be endured, and will likely continue until men competent to act as legislators can be found who will take holo of the matter with the will and the wisdom to act in the interest of the people.

tile new pension agent

of this State, is having a gay time with the appointing of his deputies. No sooner was he confirmed than Senators Yoorhees and Turpie. and a half dozen of the Representatives of the State, were promptly on hand with their demands that he appoint various friends of theirs to positions under him. He cannot appoint a third of those asking places, as he has but 2S positions to be filled, and the wrath of many of these Congressmen is very outspoken because some of their favorites have been omitted. 11 is pity that Spencer is not in a position to act independent and tell these gentlemen to go to the devil at once, but favors are not reached in that way. Most office holders have to be dogs during most of their official life, or if not their chances for retaining place are very uncertain.

DAVIS

made himself conspic

uous at the late State convention by fighting against th renomination of Judge Colfey for circuit Judge. Tho reason was that Coffee in an extended opinion pronounced the new salary law relating to Sheritls constitutional, and hence the desire of the Sheriffs to defeat hiii. Now the Judge may have been entirely sincere in his opinion and interpreted the law as he understood it anil bidieveu it to be, and if so the treatment of him by his party friends would look as unjust and unfair. It is probable. very probable, that many republicans in this county will remember Mr. Davis for his conspicuousntss on this occasion, at least some of them talk that way just now.

Mn. Ai.Diiicii. a republican Senator, proposed last week in discussing the Wilson tariff reform bill, to take a vote at once on the bill as it came from the House. His proposition was at once accepted, but coward like he backed down. The policy of the republicans is to delay, and the democratic Senators if they had any Lerve and will would stop this, and force the matter through. Their slow. uncertain svstem. has

brought them int.) contempt with all

classes of the people, of all shades of politics.

Hood's Cures,

In saying that Hood's Sarsaparilla cures, its proprietors make no idle or extravagant claim. The advertising of Hood's Sarsaparilla is always within the bounds of reason, because it is true it always appeals to the sober, common sense of thinking people, and it is always fully substantiated by endorsements, which in the financial world, would be accepted without a moment's hesitation.
