theelection forjudge next

Lirrall tho Democrats take Judgs Willson athi8 word, discard politics, and vote for Judge Thomas.

Sexatou Roscoe Conkuno seems

to be the coining man for Chief Justice if the predictions of the big newspapers are worth anything.

Tiie Legislature of (,'aliiornia is undoubtedly Republican, and the prospect for theelection of Gov. Newton Booth to the United States Senate are considered very good. 'j'

W'ji.l.sox insistes that party

politics should have no influence on the election next Tuesday. That being tne ciise let every Democrat go to the polls and voto for Judge Tliotmw.

Tiiwiuv is the day to elect a

the Circuit Prosecutor, Mr. Pierce oilt of ollice, cniis-equently the only officer voted for next Tin-day in -this Circuit will be that of judge. Let every Republican in tlie county be at the polls.

The Supreme Court of Illinois, in session ot Ottawa, has rendered a decision through Justice Scott, affirming tbe validity of the State liquor law, which is similar to that in Ohio. The opinion is quite long, and sustains the law in all points.

The acts of the last legislature and tho salary grab act of the last Congress have about as much to do with the election for Judge next Tuesday as tbe Graphic balloon.

Every citizen of Montgomery county should vote for A. D. Thomas for Judge next Tuesday. One of the best evidences of his qualifications is the fact I that tbe bar, of both Montgomery and

Coi.. John H. Fakquhar, of Indianapolis, died at his residence in that city on Wednesday of last week. Col. aruhar was well k-uown throughout the State both in business and political circles. He lived lor many years at Brookville and once represented that District in Congress. On the death of Col. Nor. man B. Eddy he was appointed by Governor Baker Secretary of State. At the time of his death he was President of the Meridan Street National Bank.

"Back pay" is the order of the hour Judge Davidson sued for back pay from the first of Jaiiuiyy until the time the law increasing the salaries of judges •went into effect, March 10. A decision has just been made in the Supreme Court at Indianapolis, in which the opinion is expressed that the pay begins on the first of the year. Judges hearing cases in which they have a pecuniary interest may be the "square thing" but the common herd will hardly so regard it.

JriH.E Willson was appointed Judge of the 22d Judicial Circuit to serve from March 10, the time the new court law went into effect, until the special election on the second Tuesday in October. By the recent decision of the Superior Court at Indianapolis in regard to the "back pay" the question arises, is he entitled to pay from January 1, or only from March 110. Judge Davidson,a Democrat, is a "back payster," and Judge Willson will be if he has a half a chance.

If he is not qualified why did they all unite in a petition to Gov. Hendricks to appoint him to the position when Judge Willson was appointed?

Jay Cooki: & Co. have prepared a detailed statement of their asueta and liabilities, aud submit it to their creditors, along with a propostiion for an adjust"mentof their obligations, the chief feature of which is that they propose to pool their partnership and private property and place it in the hands of K. A.

Rollins, as Trustee, to be disjwed of for tke benefit of creditors.

The cloak of "independence" which Judge Willson has been wearing witk such becoming modesty has at last been ruthlessly torn off by the Judge's organ, and he now appears in the role of the regular, old Simon pure„Democratic candidate. It urges Democrats to go to ,, polls and vote forjudge Willson because the "result will have an inflaence on the

State and Congressional elections next year."

.The, Review, upeaking of the election next Tuesday, says: "Let every Democrat and every honest citizen who desires a change of policy in public aflairs, be sure to-be at the polls." Inasmuch as Its candidate for Judge is the present incumbent the above does not speak very flatteringly of his administration. If it s", means anything it means that Democrats and honest citizens should go to the polls and voto for Judge Thomas. This will secure the "change" from Judgs

Speaking of the probable action of that body, he says "I believe thaJpCongress will remove the restrictions f%m the existing bank law, and devise means of giving Hexibilty to our currency by the establishment of a free banking system. An enterprising tieople, in command of great resources susceptible of development, can not conduct business successfully and without the risk of such crisises as we are now passing through, without a reserve which may be called into effect in times of emergency. The recent history of the Bank of England liax shown this. The banking law of 1844 limited amount of notes that might be issued, and the government ha- been compelled

THE ./ UDGESIIII'.

Judge Willson is running as un "independent" candidate down in l'arke, but in this county the Democratic Central Committee is to meet next Saturday to make arrangements for a grand Democratic triumph, which, according to the Review, is to determine the next Presidential election in favor of the Democratic party. lJesides thinking the election of Col. Willson will revolutionize public opinion of the whole country, the Review pretends to believe that Judge Willson is much better qualified for the judgeship than Judge Thomas, and on that account, also, should be elected. We are not lawyers and do not profess to be qualified to judge as to the merits of the two candidates, but we know a few things which we think should be carefully weighed by those who are trying to find out which one of the candidates is the best qualified.

We know it to be a fact that Judge Thomas waB most cordially recommended for the appointment last Spring by every attorney in the CirctiU of both politral part'ut. His recommendation was one of the most flattering ever sent up to the appointing power, and it was signed by Alexander Thomson, Ben T. Ristine, M. D. White, Judge John M. Cowan, P. 8. Kennedy, W. T. Brush, W.I*. Britton, M. W. Brunner, J. M. Thompson. James Wright, George D. Hurley, Heury Nicholson, A. C. Jonnison, attorneys, and a large number of our business men beside*. Of the citizens of ltockville who signed the recommendation we may mention the two Maxwells

Rice & Johnson, A. F. White, attorneys,! the State of Boone, had a spar, which Mr. Colliflgx, the editor ot the Demo- the latter came out gloriously l.ckcd. at MnrVville. all of the —Our new mill, known as Bell &

Parke counties, without regard to party, ticesin our court would regard the elec-

ing to aspire to a judgeship, against so old a lawyer as himself, the bar sneers a great deal more at Col. Willson's decis

Wok to be a fact that Judge Thomas served for a short time on the Bench, and though then utterly without experience as a judge, gave the most complete satistaction to the entire bar, as is evidenced by the cordial manner in which he was recommended for the appointment by all his professional brethren of both parties.

Knowing all these things as we do, we can not but deem it a great blunder on

This book is a discussion ol the manner of the future life of man. It assumes as indisputable that man is immortal, and proceeds to deduce from tbe scriptures and from science how, when and where that immortality is to be spent. It cannot be said to be strictly orthodox, if measured by the common creeds of the day, yet tbe reverencc for the Bible, at every step, commands the respect of even those who will not cordially assent to the conclusion of the author.

In the argument the author assumes, and labors to show that the material of the present :ody will have

the Origin of Man will

perhaps be regarded as tbe most striking if not the most plausible part of the discussion. It certainly has the merit of freshness and novelty, and will challenge the scrutiny of thinking men. We have never met the theory elsewhere in jur reading and we doubt if any of our readera have. With entire confidence in the Mosaic account of man he assumes that man lived long before the days of Adam.

The chapter on the Second Coming of Christ is in the face of the common theory I lonk

that subject. It utterly ignores the personal return of Christ in the usual sense of that dogma.

We leave it to the reader to'say how successfully the author combats the notions of prominent- men on the subjects he discusses. We only add this, that the book is very readable to those who take any interests in the subjects discussed. mined 14 ,mil uf •!.«» contents of the book. Without endorsing or condemning the novel views of the author we cordially commend the book to those who are willing to be waked up by a line of new thought and willing to read something out of the ordinary rouble. -V'.-" X'-'t

An Item for tlie Public. Europe is convulsed and the world is dethroned, but uotwithstandinging tho troubles of continent and the wreck of empires, Thomas Craig by a peaceable nnd amicable arrangement has purchased the interest of Joseph Hanna 11 the firm of Craig & Hanna, and hereafter will be the sole proprietor of the livery, feed aud sale stables heretofore controled by that firm. Mr. Craig will devote his entire time and attention to the management of these stables. His stock of carriages, buggies and phaetons is large, new and of the most stylish patterns his horses aie of the best quality, and he defies competition in the beauty of his turn-outs. The omnibus line—owned by himself—will be run with the greatest punctuality, and orders will be promptly and gentlemanly at tended to. These stables, so long patronized by buyers and sellers as sale and feed stables, will hold out additional inducements for patronage, and tbe proprietor now as heretofore is ever ready to buy and sell mules on his own account. The most attentive and obliging attendants, drivers and hostlers alone will be employed. Determined not to be outdone by any, and resolved to please all his patrons, be solicits a continuance of the patronage extended to these stables, the enlargement of his business asmiring tbe public of his ability lo meet the wants aid wishes of the public generally. We know the capacity of Mr. Craig for the business in which he is engaged, and we cheerfully recommend all who may have use for his livery, sale and feed stable to give him a trial.
