SATURDAY, APRIL 1G, 1892.

Rhode Island is all j-iglit- The Republican majority there is the first tap in the funeral knell of Democracy.

The tin plate liar still pervadeth the air. Ho would rather his own country would fail than see an industry prosper, one that would save millions to the consumers of this country. "When politics gets such a hold upon an individual or party that failure is hailed •with delight, patriotism is at a very low ebb: but patriotism is not component part of democracy.

Takino a broad view of the working of protection since 181(5, it appears that the principal products the farmers sell have advanced in price an average of 14-1 per cent., while on the other hand, the principal articles they have to buy have fallen an average of 79 per cent. Yet Democrats with cheeks of tripleplated brass declare that the tariff is a tax and a particularly heavy burden on the farmers.

Nintey

nine

per cent, of the wool

growers of Indiana never attend this association, and most of them have too much sense to desire the continuance of a wool tariff under which tho price of wool has constantly decreased.—Indianapolis Se nl hie I.

With the Sentinel, as with other Democratic- organs, the tariff on wool one day makes wool cheaper, and the next day destroys our woolen manufactures because it makes raw material high. The tariff on wool is a wonderful thing. In makes the farmer's wool cheaper, and the manufacturer's wool higher.

Whatever the Republican side of the House lacks in numbers, is made np by a full supply of courage, brains, and clear-sighted determination. The splendid conduct of the Republican minority during the light over the silver bill extorted expressions of admiration from such a stiff-necked Democrat as Grain, of Texas. "I couldn't help," said Mr. Crain, "but admire the magnificent discipline displayed by the Republican minority. It was equal to a German regiment. They advanced, retreated, wheeled, faced about, marched, counter marched, and charged like trained veterans. It was magnificent, in was "politics.'* Several hundred thousand

Republicans say ditto to that. The Republican minority has done nobly.

The war between the (iray and Cleveland wings of the Indiana Democracy grows in bitterness as time goes on. Hon. John B. Stoil, editor of the South Hend Times, and one of the leading Democrats of the State, both in ability and influence, is a champion of Gray. The Cleveland wing having challenged his motive? for his opposition to the "Claimant" Mr. Stoll serves this notice on his detractors: "Henceforth it shall bo an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. The meek and lowly method of turning the other cheek, that the assailant may smite it also, has passed into innocuous desuetude, so far as this establishment is conoonoerned.

"Lav on McDufl.

And damned be he who lirst cries, hold, enough," Is now our shibboleth. There is an abundance of war paint about these premises, of which fact all directly concerned may take due and timely notice."

The State encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, which met at Ft. Wayne this week, was in all respects a successful and interesting meeting of veterans. The election of Hon. J. B. Cheadle, of Frankfort, aB Department Commander, was a most excellent sesection and gives promise of a vigorous administration during the coming year. He is a man of commanding ability the large vote that he received showed that the old boys appreciated his efforts in their behalf while serving as a member of Congress. The delegates from the Eighth district to the National Encampment are J. M. Whitney, of Attica, and B. F. Javens, of Terre Haute, while the alternates are J. P. Stratton, of

Sullivan, and H. R. Tinsley, of this

......... .....

A REPUBLICAN YEAR.

Two years ago the Spring elections indicated a tidal wave in favor of the Democracy. From one end of the country to the other the Democrats carried everything in both municipal and I township elections. This tidal wave had not lost its force in the fall elections and the fury of the storm was even more disastrous in its results than in the Spring cyclone. Following this political hurricane a reaction soon set in. Various causes may bo assigned, but the patent fact remains that the elections this Spring have been the reverse of those two years ago, and Republican victories have been tho rule instead of the exception. The latest to fall into line is the little State of Rhode

Island, which two years ago elected a Democratic Governor, Legislature and two members of Congress. Now the people of that little State have reversed the verdict of two years ago, and elected a Republican Governor and Legislature and this Fall will elect two members of Congress. The tide hps set in in favor of the Republicans and the signs are truly encouraging for the election of a Republican President and a Republican House of Representatives.

MR. RROOKSHIRE IMfLICATl A sensation was sprung last week in tho investigation of Commissioner liaum, now in progress. It was developed that the private secretary of Congressman Cooper had been soiling information of the status of claims to pension attorney, for which he charged S3 to each claimant. It was shown that this private secretary had called up these cases on congressional slips signed by Congressman Cooper. This private secretary it was shown had also done some work for Congressman Brookshire, of this district, and Congressman Gentz, of Ohio. It was well known during the campaign last year that Mr. Brookshire had some kind of a "cinch" on [the pension oflice but just what could not be ascertained. It now comes out that he worked through the private secretary of Congressman Cooper. Let the investigation proceed until the bottom is reached. We have a lingering suspicion that it will implicate uioro Democrats than the three Congressmen mentioned. Commissioner Raum should push the investigation. Pay dirt has just been struck.

ACCOUNTING FOR DEFEAT IN RHODE ISLAND. Democrats are trying hard to account

Rhode Island than the unin that State, practical purRhode Island Mr. Aldrich to

for their great defeat in upon some other theory popularity of Democracy But it is enough for all pose that tho people of preferred the return of represent them in tho Senate to any Democrat in Rhode Island that they preferred a Republican Governor to a Democratic Governor and that all things considered, they would rather have a Republican than a Democratic Legislature. Republicans in Rhode

Island and e'.sewhere are satislied with tho result and Democrats are not. This is "tho long and the short of it." It is plain enough that Republicanism was popular in Rhode Island and that Democracy was not and such is likelv

to be the condition of tilings pretty generally next November.

FREE WOOL,

Tlie Democratic House of .Representatives on Thnreelay passed the free wool bill by a vote of l'J'2 to GO. Netliing could possibly bo more absurd than this step. To repeal the tariff em wool is to discourage the raising of sheep 'n the United States. And to discourage tho production of wool is to reduce the surplus of raw material and compel the further use of shoddy, for it is an undeniable fact that there is not now wool enough produced in the world to clothe all the people. Shoddy, in additional quantity will become a necessity, and we shall have shoddy clothes through the action of shoddy Democracy. To elischarge the production of wool and to encourage the production of shodely are the only results that would follow putting wool on the free list. But the

Democratic party has a passion for substituting shoddy for wool in all it does or proposes.

IN THE SAME COLUMN.

By vote of more than three to one the free wcol bill passed the house. Not a Democrat failed to vote for cheaper clothing.—Indianapolis Sentinel.

Most of them [the farmers have too much sense to elesire the continuance of a tariff under which the price of wool has continually decreased.—Indianapolis Sentinel.

Now, let all good Democrats pay their money and elect as to which is the true gospel of Democracy.

With the bad results of "mental strain" anel "scriveners' paralysis' Brookshire is not equal to the duties of a representative in Congress. He told the investigating committee that he was compelled to employ the leech, Hersey,

because he could not attend to his correspondence and was so guileless that Hersey had no difficulty in mulching the old soldiers in his district. We understand that there are a number of these "slips" in this city which tell the story of a small species of blackmail.—Te.rre Haute Express.

gentleman

of this city who has a

spiritualistic tendency in his belief and when opportunity presents itself holds communication with departed friends through a medium. The other day he viaited a lady in a distant city for the purpose of holding concourse with friends in the spirit land. He was surprised to hear from a former distinguished citizen of this city. After some talk on other matters the spirit said: "Now as to politics. The Democrats with their silver jingle will soon be so wrapped up in the convolutions of their pretty theories that they will swallow themselves and a new party be born from their remains." The above is a verbatim copy as it appeared on the slate. The name of our earthly friend is withheld for obvious reasons.

The Republican club enjoyed a revival season last night. Four hitherto life-long Democrats came out on the Lord's side, and made profession of thoir faith by signing the constitution and by-laws and in the future will act and vote with tho party of progress and prosperity. 51 ore are coming.

The Republican municipal ticket, is one that should command the support of every voter in the city. It is composed of most excellent material from top to bottom and tho gentlemen composing it are all well equipped to perform the duties of the offices to which they aspire.

JAMES M. SELLAR NOMIN ATED.

Hon. M. 3. Oarroll is Snowed Under at Greencastle.

Sie(-inl

to the Journal.

Gkeencastle, Ind., April 12.—The joint senatorial convention organized this morning at ten o'clock. There was an effort made to have the joint representative convention first but Chairman Vestal declared tho first session to be that of the Senatorial struggle. John II. James, of Putnam, nominated Mr. II. H. Cnllen for Chairman, which was carried. James Brennan, of Montgomery was made Secretary, with J. II. James, of Putnam, as assistant. The delegations were thou called by townships, only one or two failing to reply.

Under the call for nomination. Judge W. P. Britton, of Montgomery, in a ten minute speech named James M. Sellar, of Montgomery, to whom he referred as a Cleveland Democrat.

Michael Foley, in a ilowery talk of about the same length of time, named Michael J. Carroll, referring to him as a laboring man's friend.

On behalf of Putnam county Deputy Prosecutor James nominated Pressly O. Colliver, dwelling on the fact that ho was tlso a Cleveland Democrat.

The matter of balloting was then entered at once, votes necessary for choice. The first ballot resulted: 1st ballot

-Memtgoniery county. So

lar 27. Carroll Putnam, Colliver 2 2nd -Montgomery county, Sellar, 2(5. Carroll Putnam e-ounty, Colliver 27. 3rel—Montgomery county. Sellar, 27. Carroll Putnam county, Colliver 27.

At this point it was moved hv Putnam county that vote*? bo cast by townships by ballot, secretary to call the vote. Montgomery meved to lay motion on table. Lost, liesnming on the original motion it was lost.. This brought it back to where it started an the 4th ballot was called for. 4th--Montgomery county. Sellar 20. Carroll 7 Putnam county, Calliver 25. Carroll 2. 5th—Montgomery county. Sellar ?0. Carroll (5 Putnam county, Carroll 7: Cobver, 20.

From this 011 to the 1 J11 ballot. Carroll gained in Putnam until Ind 22 votes from that county which with the 7 from Montgomery gave him 29 to Sellar 29 and Colliver ". On the 25th ballot Carroll receiveel 24 from Putnam giving him 31 to vSellar's 29, and within 1 vote of the nomination. On the 27th Putnam went back to Colliver and from that on Carroll's name was mud.

On the 40th ballot Carroll seemed to appreciate the fact that he was not in it and withdrew and Montgomery voted solid for Sellar, giving him the nomination. Putnam stuck out for Colliver and snarled like a elog at the result. At 1:30 Frank Aeler. of Putnam, was unanimously nominated for Joint Representative ....

Will Put Others Up.

Dr. Griffith and T. E. Ballard are not totally discouraged because their candidates for Mayor and Clerk rose up and emote them in the neck. Mr. Ballard says other candidates will be nominated soon, He and the worthy doctor will probably meet again soon and put oilier RichttiOnds in t' field. It would possibly be advisable to obtain the consent of the next set of candidates before holding them up to the public in such a comical way.

Leg iJroken.

A TRIBUTE TO MR. DURHAM.

The Patron of the Y. M. 0. A. Has a Birthday- His Biography. If anyone has a right to celebrate the birthday of a friend, then certainly the Young Men's Christian Association of this city has a right to celebrate the birthday of Mr. W. II. Durham. Mr. Durham was (io years of age on Tuesday a .d coi sequeatly the flag win Hying on the Y. M. C. A. building.

William II. Durham was born in Lincoln county, Ky., April 12, 1827. One year later his parents removed to Russellville, Putnam county, this Stave. At eight years of age, having been taught tho indiments of an eduzation by his mother, ho was taken to Kentucky by his grandfather where he atteneled school at Perryville for two years. Returning home he worked on the farm until the Spring of 1843 when he entered what was then Asbury University, now DePauw. Graduating from there in 18-17, he read law and did classical work until the Spring of 1849, when like many others he started for California on the breaking out of the gold fever. After spending about two years there he returned to Russellville and entereel into a partnership with his father in the dry goods business.

Removing to Crawfordsville in 18(54, in September of that year he organized the First National Bank of this city, of which well known institution ho is at presont the President.

Mr. Durham was married in 1847 to Sarah M. Evans. They have two children, one boy, George F., who is now associated with his father as Vice President of the bank, anil ene girl.

Outside of banking business Mr. Durham is best known by his interest in the welfare of the young men of the city, which led 1o his loaning sufficient money to the directors of tho Young Men's Christian Association to erect the magnificent building oceupieel by them on west Main street, worth, with the lot on which it is built, about 84:5,000.

Mr. Durham has never yet received one cent ef either principle or interest on his investment and what the outcome may be the future alone can tell. One thing is true, that very few men have clone as much for the young men of their native city as Mr. Durham has done for the young men of Crawfordsville.

There is only one criticism that might be made on tho building and that is that the large hall might have been better finished and called Durham Hall," the same as "Dwight Hall," lie gift of one man to the Young Men's Christian Association of Yale college, or "Marquand Hall," the well known and magnificent building of the Af social ion in Brooklyn, N. Y., erected at a cost of 8300,000 entirely at the expense of the estate of Frederick Marquand. But perhaps something of this kind may be

done in the future. In the meantime the citizens of Crawfordsville and especially the young men, ought to see to it that the necessary support is given to the directors to enable them to make the institution a center of light and wholesome influences to the whole community.

Fighting the Tax Lax.

nil "e Field, general solicitor for the Lo iisville. New Albany & Chicago road, la a week completed the payment of onehalf the taxes at county 6eats on the entire svstem, paying only on the valution given for taxation of the property by the company. He has now prepared tlio papers to file an injunction suit in the Lako county, Indiana, circuit court, before Judge W'lliam Johnson, of the thirty-first circuit, to enjoin treasurers of the counties through which the road passes, against collecting taxes in excess of the valuation as rendered by the company, which they believe to be fair and just*. The case will be set for hearing at Valparaiso, Ind., April 18, and the treasurers of all count'es through which the road passes are included as defendants. Judge Field states that the assessments made in the different counties increase the taxes of the L., N. A. & C. over any former year $60,000, and the question as to the legality of the increase will, if necessary, be carried to the United States Supreme Court, as questions are involved which the Federal as well as the State court must act upon.

General Manager, Mc Doel, and Treasurer Lewis have been hero and on Tuesday agent H. S. Watson tendered in the road's name to Treasurer Hutton S990.(i3, the amount of last year's assessment. This was accepted and tho road will be forced to pay no more until the courts decide the case. The assessment under tho new law is over §(,000.

Words ot Wisdom From Barnum. "If you have ten dollars to spend," said Barnum, "spend one for an article and the o:her nine in advertising it." The old man knew a thing or two when it came to advertising. Barnum said to mo some years ago: "1 can out-talk anybody on'earth but the printer. The man who can stick type and talk next morning to thousands of people while I'm talking to one is the only man I'm afraid of. 1 want him for my friend.
