A DESERVED DEFEATReynolds, the councilman from the 3d ward, received at the hands of his own party friends a well merited defeat for re-nomination for the position last week, l'hoy were determined to down him and even if nominated every man of them would have voted against him at the regular election. They, as well as others, have seen and felt the increased taxation in the city and took the first- opportunity to rebuke it. Reynolds seemed to favor almost everything where money was to be expended and rarely failed to vote for alb of themWhen within four years taxes are in creased from 85 cents to £1.00, people who have to pay them are not feeling in the best of humor over it. The expense of the construction of the electric light plant and the maintaining of it, the curbing.of Main street, and the $12,000 Wabash Avenue bridge, have and are costing citizens much money, and Reynolds favored all of these. In the close and panicy times of the past three years, the man proposing increased expenditures for the city is certainly no friend in particular of the tax payers, and the sooner removed the better. This is the conclusion doubtless the voters of the 3d ward came to, and retired Reynolds in consequence. Have they, however, is the question, doue any better in exchanging Reynolds for Markley Have they not simply dropped a Holland and taken up an Oliver? \Vi 11 uot Markley, if elected, vote for all the continued "improvements" proposed regardless of his constituents, or will he favor retrenchment and economy? Many think nothing is gained by the change, and that he will plunge in and be as expensive in his actions as councilman as the individual he defeated, but as several republicans remarked "anything for a change. It cannot be worse."
WHY THIS YEAR?
With the race very uncertain this year we believe the friends of Gov. Matthews do him a future injury by urging his name as a candidate before the national democratic convention at Chicago in July next for President. The Governor is comparatively a young man. arid the prospects four years hence will be much better for victory than this year. Therefore why make a probable sacrifice of him. Nominated this year he will never be nominated again,

inated every democrat of Indiana would cordially support him, as they all consider him a good, pure man, and one who would carry out true democratic principles. It is tho policy of nominating him this year that is very questionable, and why some

RETIRED FARMERS RETIRED retired farmers in
,o retired farmers in town who
of the republican city nominating election on Tuesday of last week, were gracefully retired by the voters ot their party and permitted to remain in the quiet which only abseuce from office can give. The impression seems to be gaining that CrawfordnviHe is getting more than her share of retired farmers for residents. They move to town to eat and sleep only, are almost universally penurious, and are perfectly willing that the city should grow up in dog fennel provided it will cost them nothing to have it removed. Their mission in town is principally to talk of politics, relig ion and the weather, and to v:gorously oppose anything having the appearance of public improvement. Certainly a city aiming to kiep in the march of progress and improvement has no need of any such men at the head of affairs, as they are men of a past age and have no interest in the active present. Wisdom, honesty and economy are adjuncts necessary to the successful running of any municipality, but there is no neces-
all the itulependance that
such a calling at all times brings, should desire a change to a city, has always been a mystery un- xplainable to the man inured to the noise and bustle of town, and stranger still that they-should desire to take a hand in managing municipal affairs. The verdict seeius to be atnoug the republicans that they better let such things alone judged by the result of iast week's republican nominating election.
A WORTHY CANDIDATE.
HE EVIEW
is not given to bestowing
compliments on the average republican office seeker, but'desires to make an exception in one instance in the case of Mr. John W. Baker, of Columbia City, Indiana, whom we observe by a last week's Indianapolis paper, seeks the position of Lieutenant-Governor on the republican State ticket. Over 30 years ago Baker was a printer's devil in an office managed by us in northern Indiana. He was honest, industrious and prompt in the discharge of his dutiee, and what is rare with the craft, strictly moral when in our employ, and in a few years mastered the details of the business and became owner of a newspaper himself. The good qualities of the boy remained with the man, and although many long years have passed since we have seen or even rarely heard of him, we doubt not is a worthy citizen in his community, and if nominated and elected would fill the position with credit to himself and his party.
SELECTING A SENATOR. The ridiculous, costly and nonsensical light over official honors and spoils has been on in the Kentucky legislature for about two months. The republicans anil democrats are in numbers very evenly matched, while there are a few populists belong to the legislature who aid in making things lively. The legislature must choose a U. S. Senator and have been several weeks trying to do so. lilackwell is the candidate for the free silver democrats. Carlisle has been voted for as a gold standard democrat, while the republican members have solidly stood by a candidate of their choice. While the miserable farce has beeii under way no legislation of anv consequence has been enacted a disgusting exhibition it is. It is to be regretted that the salaries of these expensive law makers goes on just tho same, and that there is* no way for cutting them off. If they could get no pay while the exhibition is under way they would end it very soon.
THIS REPUBLICAN CONGRESS. 1 here was no end of fine promises and great predictions of what the republicans would do two years ago when they could again have control of Congress. They have had control for several months, have a majority of over 100 in the Hou»e rinrl also manage the Senate, but what has all their work amounted to? Nothing. The cowardly men composing Congress are so fearful that they may injure republican chances for success at the national elections this year that they have adopted a do-nothing policy from the start Their main business is to see that, they draw tho,r salaries ami that is about all there is in it to them. To enact ai.y legislation in the interest of the nation is the last of their thoughts. Their actions certainly can be of no advantage to their party hereafter.
Sii01*no the republicans carry tho majority in the r.ext legislature ir. this State the saleable members oT it will be in clover. Fairbanks and McKeen both want to be Senators and both have "barrels' and my, oh! what picking to the follow having a vote to sell. Their influence while amounting to little at home will be mighty in tho contest betweon Fairbanks and McKeen. Many of them, no doubt, will have bank accounts for a time and will have better clothes than they ever wore before. It is rare that such an opportunity offers to the average legislator, and many of them wili temporarily profit by it.
NO EXTRA SESSION.
1
aspired to be councilman at the hands
In answer to thu G,.wdy contingent
of the ubhcan art the State
asking the Governor to nr, extra session of the legislature a new apportionment law. the (.int.-^iur very sensibly determined to do no such thing and in a well worked answer gives his reasons for refusing. The demand for tho call is at the instance of Fairbanks, a candidate for U. S. Senator solely, and is not of any perticular advantage to the State at large. One extract from the Governor's reply we quote as follows "If a political party, with tho unprecedented advantage of 1!) hold-over Senators, cannot under the law of 1885 elect a majority of the General Assembly, it would not, in justice to the decidedlyexpressed will of the people, be entitled to control that department of the State Government."
The whole businets is political and in the interest of a few scheming politicians of the republican party. The State will be put to littleor no disadvantage in the apportionment of 'S5 remaining until tho next regular session of the State legislature when a new apportionment law will be enacted. Another
sity in going to I tie opposite extreme b.% objection is that an extra session would selecting persons- who would be little cost $2-",000 at least. This money would else than stumbling blocks to tho city's come out of the pockets of the tax payprogress. Why any individual possessed ers to benefit a few politicians, no one of a farm sufficient to furnkh a li veil else. hood, with

RKVIRW sees no wisdom in nominating a city democratic ticket. It has been done every yoar that elections were held since tho city was incorporated and amounted to little or co benefit to the party, instead, it at once antagonized the two parties, was made a political scramble, and resulted, as usual, in the defeat of the '.'emocrats. So it will again. If the republicans with their immense majoiity in the city cannot see the benefits of changing the political standing of it to themselves as well as other tax payers of opposite political belief, then democrats cannot teach them. From a financial point the ri'y is in an ugly shape, has a big debt, niid the prospects for a reductinu of 1: is some distance away. The party in power here must appreciate this, must seethe benefit of eschewing politics, must feel the pressure of continued increased taxation, before they will break away from party lines and act in the interest of their pocket booke, instead of their politics. We look for similar results that have followed past efforts to secure democrats for city positions.
nominee for Governor on the
prohibition ticket in this State is a minister at Indianapolis, who last week declined the honor and withdrew his name, alleging that religion and politics were two separate things and should not be mixed. If the religion of the reverend gentleman is of no stronger a character than the politics or the average prohibitionist the mixture will not particularly injure anybody, preacher or lay member.
observing politicians of the
republican party express the opinion that McKinley will not be the nominee of the St. Louis republican nominating convention, that in the tiirit ballot be will get tho most votes, after whiL.'i his strength will be scattered. Thfe ^ame politicians say that t.ha nominee will be either Alliton or Harrison, ar that Reed and Morton will deve' [,e no strength of sufficient important- at any I time to se -ure the nomination.

Deafness Cannot be Cured
by local applicatiors as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed ou have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, rloafness is the result, am! unlesB the inllamma ion can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are caused byCatarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
