HANKKORT Haniier: (ieneral Mtiusnn is again in the race for the Democratic nomination for Governor. The old hero deserves this recognition. It has beer, life-long ambition.

ruF.K salt, protoetwl rice and protected sugar is tin- Democratic method of bringing about a "free breakfast" for the poor "man. He can not afford to pay the duty on salt, but that on sugar and rice he .must pay, whether he can afford it or not.

OCAI option is a very great, principle. It is home rule—tin- right of each community to govern itself in its own .way—the liberty of each local majoritv to go IUS they please—the purfection of government by the people for the people, anil so on.

struck a good point

in Ills speech in the Senate on Tuesday lnHt when he showed the miraculous manner lu which all Union men me proscribed in the South. Tin: war has been Sover for more than twenty years, and 'yot no man has ever been elected to

Congress from any seceded State who was not pronounced and active rvbel '.during t.ho war. The Southern people demand that the war shall be forgotten, but they talco good rare never to forgot the Southern man who was, in the least degree, loyal to his country. If lh«

North Is to forgive and forget what the rebel* did, and put tiiem in Congress, in tho Cabiuet and on the Suprom# Bench, wkf should not tho South "letup"

TIIK llf. MOlt A TIC TAltl I- Itll.I., I Nothing could more ciearlv show the utter want of sincerity in the Democrat ic leaders than the timff bill ccutlv reported by the ways and means commit tee of the National House of HepieM'iitativos. .Some of its feature.- are so glarmglv inconsistent as to subject the committee to the ridicule of intelligent Democrats. l'or instance, what possible excuse c.iii be given for leaving 000.000 of duty on sugar, and putting sill! on Ihe fire list'? Salt aud sugar are both of universal use, and ll there is nnv reason for putting salt on the free list, the very same reason would require sugar and ice lo be put on Ihe free list. The tariff oil sugar is just as burdensome to the pool ninn ns the tariff oil sail, or ihe tariff on wool and woolen goods. The bill seems designed for the purpose of striking down Northern industries, and building lip Southern ones. Tin• gieat argument of the Democratic party is that the rilT on an article increase-the price of the article to the extent of the duty imposed. If this is true, the people are compelled to pay, under this new tariff, several hundred million of dollars more for sugar than they otherwise would, nine-tenths of which are paid by the poorer classes: for the poor use sugar as liberally as the rich. If there is any truth whatever ill this Democratic argument, sugar, above all other article.-, should be put on the free list. Yet the rate in sugar Is scarcely touched. All the gab we have heard from the Democratic orators about a "free breakfast"for the poor man, and the tears we have seen shed by oflice seekers over the terrible oppression the tariff heaps on poor men, have come lo this at last. Tin very tariff that is most oppressive is to remain. Why.-1 Because sugar Is a Southern production exclusively and the South is again legislating for the whole country. It matters not how much the poor people of the North have to pay for sugar, the South demands that the tariff on sugar shull remuin, and every Northern Democrat, as in days of yore, "bends the pregnant hinges of his knee" and savs. amen. The negro is fiee, but the Democratic party of the Noith is yet subject to its old-timo bondage. The brigadiers whip it around as they please.

of the importance of the

township elections which occur three weeks from next Monday the Indianapolis 'hmrnal says:

The township is the political genu of the State. It represents home lulw in its best and highest sense, and tlJ(. fountain head of political morals and good government. Undet bad conditions it is tile fountain head of political corruption and luisgovernment. The township trustee is tiie representative homeruler. Me is tho people's trustee to manage township affairs. His duties are vaiious, and some of them important. Ihev rylate to elections, schools.bridges, care of the poor, school and road taxes, and other impoitant local affairs. It follows that th« trustee should be a capable, intelligent and honest mall. The Kepublican candidates for trustees ought to be such as to challenge the support of their neighbors, aside from all considerations of partisan politics, and lo insure thsir elections on the ground of local good government. We do not disguise the fact that the election of Jiepublican trustees may have an important iniiuenee on future political contest"!, but this is not. the first thing to be considered. The first thing is to nominate thoroughly competent and deserving men, men whose personal character will command respect and support for this important local ofilce. It is to be hoped Republicans throughout the State will recognize the Importance of doing this.

which lie proposes to stand, and with which he will light the Mills bill. He proposes to reducn the internal revenue taxes by $MI,oon.{inn. He repeals tho taxes on fruit, spirits and special taxes reduces the lax on tobacco, and reduces the tax on whisky from 'JO cents to 45 cents a gallon. He rearranges some of the schedules of tho tarifT, and increases some rates. The Washington correspondent of tho Philadelphia J*rf*n asserts that Mr. Randall's plan is to reduce duties by increasing rates to a point where competition shall be shut out. He also states that the Republicans are prepared to follow Mr. Randall's lead and to adopt his bill.

"It la a sad day for the Democratic party,* says the Atlanta Cona/ifufi'on, "when it 1b necessary for Its leaders to foster auoh an iniquitous scheme as the Internal revenue lawn to raisn revenue. The report of this committee Indicates that It Is the purpose of at leant the commltteo of Ways anil Means to do this, and the farmsrs, not the 'Infant Industries,' have to bear the burden of thin folly. It may be right, but It will tako time to prove It."

A curious phenomenon is now taking place in this eountry. The price of cattle on the hoof is falling, and at the same time a marked incr(»nso is noticeable in that of dressed meat*. In other words, French hmnlors are forced to sell their cattlo at lower prices than they could get a year or two ago, while never beforo has the cost of veal, beef and mutton been greater to tho» of us who consume such articles of food. Hero in Taris and all the other large cities of France people aro grumbling at tb« increase of butchers' bills, and farmers all over the country are complaining that it no longer pays to raise cattle for the markets Never since 1870 has the price of ox«n, cairea and sheep l»een so low an now, and in some cattlo raising di&trlrts, notably in the eastern departments, the decreaso is quite 50 par cent. In tho neighborhood of Lyons, the city after Paris that consumer tho largest quantity of meat, cattlo on tho hoof, which four years ago were selling for $10 to $11 the hundred weight are not now bringing more than from $3 to $9.
