TOO
MUCH "COMPREHENSIVE SYSTEM."
The council came near ordering anmher addition to our patch-w^rk of sewers last Monday night. hut no move was made toward a comprehensive system.- Journal.
The tax payers of this city have eeu too much of this --comprehensi-e system" of this republican city coui. 'il They have seen within the past l.w years the taxes raised from S" cents to £1,00 on the" FLOO valuation through this republican "comprehensive system. Thev have seen the constructs.u of an electric liuht system, which origin»l^ was to cost s:r.000. rue up to *SlUiOO and piled a iarge debt on the people which it wiii require years of time to extinguish through this -comprehensive system." They have seen them buy an expensive street grader for .t.J.sOO. which if sold to an individual would hare cost but a little more than half that sum of money, aud all through the "compiehensive system" of management of this present republican city government. The people, the majority of them at least, want no sewer system on a "comprehensive" or any other plan. The demand for it comes alone from those who expect to be benefitted by it pecuniarily. Not over one voter in live would favor it under existing circumstances. The men who would have to pay for it are not demanding it at all. They prefer to draw a few breaths of rest before being forced into any new "comprehensive systems.''
SHANKLIN.
Shanklin, of the Evausv ille Courier, it is stated, will be out for the democratic nomination for Governor. This individual seems to have tilled entirely too much newspaper space for the amount of his ability or usefulness to the party. He foolishly imagined himself a party leader, aud at the lirst dash made an attack on Gov. Gray at the opening of the campaign of but Gray knew mote about politics than Shanklin ever dreamed, and in a little quiet work he fell quick, and ceased at once to be a candidate for Governor. Since that time he seems to have been posing as a Cincinnatis of old, waiting for the President to call him to take charge of some good fat ofiice, but the President has not called yet, nor is he likely to. on Shanklin. The most sensible thing it would seem for this man to do would be to drop the office seeking feature of politics, and attend strictly to hie "knitting" on other lines.
TIIF. Iron Age, in its last issue, says: "Those who habitually hunt for clouds on the horizon must go outside of the iron trade now"—a remark which, but for the ever present army of croakers, would be superfluous. The prosperity of our iron and steel industries has been strikingly exhibited of late in the increase of wages voluntarily ordered by iron and steel mills, The latest increase has been reported from Rhode Island. Tho Woonsocket Machine and Press company has restored wages to the rates which obtained before the cut in 189.3. The fact is that many of the iron and steel factories of the United States are now pressed with work to till orders and whenever this is the case labor must be well employed and well remunerated.
A REPUBLICAN REFORM.
The new republican management of the northern penitentiary has already made several changea which are of increased expense to the tax-payers. The labor of two or three hundred convicts has been awarded to contractors at rates below 40 cents per day, whereas heretofore it wa9 above that figure. The State has also to pay for new machinery for contractors which it did not do before. This penitentiary business was one of the "reforms" that the republicans expected to bring about when they attained power. The fewer "reforms" of that kind the tax-payers of the State may have the better.
SOMEHOW or other in awarding contracts for city work, Foster it Co., a foreign firm who pay no taxes here, I always receive the work. Can some of the members of our good republican city council explain how this is? If any of them are candidates for the council next year, it may bo well to get their explanations in good shape by that time.
THF. bituminous coal miners in the region of Brazil and in Clay county have, after some weeks of contention, finally won in their strike and are to receive 60 cents per ton for their work.
MUST MUZZLE NICHOLSON- I QUAY AND PENNSYLVANIA• The Lafayetto Courier is in favor of Quay, tho Pennsylvania machine polla muzzle on reformer Nicholson. ticiau, has apain triumphed It thiuks tho larger cities of he State will hold the Republican party responsi-
ble for Nicholson's utterances which will have a tendency to down that paity in ISM. It sas that "intemperate agitation is having the etTect of weakening ranUs the forces of the party Co such an extent that the solid ground on which it was confident of having placed itself last November is fast slipping away like the sands ou the seashore. Mr. Nicholson is too conspicuous. His evident desire to make a profession of his accidental notoriety is repugnant. If he has any serious concern for the republican party or the cause of temperance, the best that he can do is to retire from the public gaze and help to put a quietus on sense
less agitation than can but result inulti- is a State cursed that is under control
matv barm to all worthy interests} concerned. lie and other equally intemperate temperance zealots have insisted that the republican party in Indiana should commit delibrate suicide. It has partially succeeded in so doing, and will do so most.eil'ectually unless there is a change of tactics."
A SOUND ASSERTION. AmoLgthe lirst resolutions atloptt'.l
the Ohio State Democratic Conven-
tion in session last week we note the following cratic party of Ohio
at Springiield "The demoin convention
assembled points with satisfaction and pride to the wisdom of tho action of that party in the last two years aud the results accomplished according to its promises, to wit: The repeal of the republican legislation known as the Sherman law, the un-American federal election law and the McKinley law, from which repeals has resulted returning prosperity to the country to such an extent that even the republicans are obliged to recognize the same." In condemning the democratic party for the late panic and "hard times" following. the inconsiderate fail too often iu attributing the true cause for it. They fail to note that in the beginning of this administration it had an empty treasury on its hands, and that many useless aud nonsensical laws were in operation, the work of former republican Congresses that were injurious to the prosperity of the countrv.
A KF.CKXT interview with William C. Whitney shows that he regards the democratic party at this time as remarkably strong. lie said: "I think the condition of the Democratic partv in the whole country to-day is remarkably stiong, even stronger than it has been since the war." "Why?" "Eecause for the first time since the war it has a record to stand on. It has done something. In spite of an extremely high tariff public revenues were falling off and the republican party had proved itself entirely irresponsible by its extravagance. The so-caiied prosperity of the country was fostered by a tariff which granted enormous profits in spots and at the same time stifled general competition and depressed individual enterprise. A crash was inevitable. The Cleveland administration met the crisis which the republicans had evaded. The republicans created the difficulties aud the Cleveland administration solved them.".
TaK odious and self conceited organization. the A. P. A., which occasionally tries to stir up something in politics, but generally tizzies, it is said will try to turn the tide in ludianapolis election affairs in October next by opposing Tom Taggert. who will be the democraticcandidate for Mayor. How different the sentiment pervading that organization to those held by a Catholic speaker at a summer school in New York in which he said: "She loves every star and stripe in the flag of freedom, and in its defense she is ready at any time to send forth her sons to do battle with any nation, any rulers, any people. She is ready to sell her lands and her churches to keep that flag waving. This is what the Catholic church believes and teaches coucxruing the American republic, and this is her motto: 'For God and country for God honor and glory for country, peace and prosperity."
DCHI.NT. twenty-four years of republican ascendency the average reduction of the public debt was $79,000,000 a year.—-Journal.
Why direct the peoples' attention to such big things as government financiering when we can see specimens much worse right at home? During the past six years of republican ascendency in Crawfordsvillo city government, our city debt increased from a few thousand dollars to over ?80,000, and city taxes which were then below 90 cents are now 31 on the ?100 valuation. Give the people object lessons on finance at home first.
CAMPBELL FOR GOVERNOR. The democracy of Ohio in State convention assembled at Springfield, laet week nominated Hon. .J. E. Campbell for Governor. Campbell was elected Governor of that State six years ago under unexpected circumstances and amid many political difliculties. In accepting the nomination with a majority last year in favor or the opposition, he indicates that ho is composed of tho true metal and is inspired by a spirit

That Tired Feelina ..
Is a common complaint ami it is a dan gerous symptom. It means that the system is debilitated because of impure blood, and in this condition it io especially liable to attacks of disease. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the remedy for this condition. aud also for that weakness which prevails at thechange of season, climate or life.

No mystery about it. When the Shakers offered some time ago to give away a bottle of their Digestive Cordial to any one who might call at their NewYork office, there was a great many people thought they were crazy.
Subsequent events prove it to have been a ve-iy clever advertising transaction, for although t.bey gave away thousands of bottles, it was in the end profitable nearly every one that took a freebottle came back for more and paid for it with pleasure, saying thay had derived better results from its Ube than from any other mediciue they had ever used.
There's no medicine so successful in the treatment of stomach troubles as tho Shaker Digestive Cordial, and what in better than all, it relieves at once.
