SATURDAY, NOV. 5, 1892.

GETTING THEIR EYES OPENED. This week THE JOURNAL prints it card from John H. Downs, announcing tbe fact that be had severed his connection with the Democratic party, and that henceforth, he would act and vole tt-ith the Republicans. Mr. Downs is but one of scores of others who have made similar declaration?, many of whom have enrolled their names on the membership of the Morton Club. There is no denying the fact that the trend of public sentiment is all in Republican direction. Many honest Democrats can see and realize for themselves that the McKinley law instead of a curse as was predicted two years ago has proven a blessing in increasing the number and variety of our manufacturing industries, and advancing wages without increasing the cost of any production to the consumer. The reciprocity feature of the law has enlarged the market of the farmer and created a prosperity for the .country unequaled in its history. These facts, together with the declaration of the Democratic party in favor of the repeal of the 10 per cent, tax on State bank issues thus opening the way for a return to wild cat money have opened the eyes of a good many thinking Democrats like John Downs.

THE New York Bank Note List and Counterfeit Detec'or of October 2, 1852, shows \he condition of the money afloat in Indiana at that date. The genuine money of all the banks was subject to a discount and in many cases worthless, while counterfeiting was one of the fixed industries among a certain class of peo pie. Even the State Bank of Indiana which was considered the best in the State was quoted at one and one-half per cent, discount. Besides twenty-two different counterfeits are described on this institution. Do the people of In diana want the 10 per cent, tax repealed on this kind of money in order that it may be introduced as their circulating medium? The law authorizing this kind of money stands unrepealed on our Btatute books, and to lepeal the 10 per cent, tax would in effect revive the financial days prior to the war.

GKOVEK CLEVELAND evidently sees the handwriting on the wall. Ilis last speech is nothing but one long, loud wail. To read his speech one would think that the whole country is but a seething mass of corruption and that the liberties of the people are to be bought and sold for a price. What a beautiful commentary on the Democratic voters of the country! According to Mr Cleveland they are all for sale! And yet this same Grover Cleveland con tributed to the Democratic Ti-mmany Hall fund, the most corrupt political or ganization on earth, the sum of SI0,000 with which to debauch voters. After getting down on his belly and crawling to Tammany Hall, Mr. Cleveland is not the man to prate of political honesty.

THE lit. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, who was for many years Mayor of Bir mingham,England,which in perhaps the best-governed city in the world, makes a co.nparison in his article the No vember Forum between the government of Birmingham and the government of Boston to Bhow that Boston's government costs five times as much as Birmingham's. There is a table of expenditures for the government of each city with tbe items put side by side. Americans have not yet solved the problem of municipal government, but from the

amount of agitation the subject is receiving they no doubt soon will.

WE have tried, in vain so far, to get some Democratic speaker to explain tipon what principle or theory the Democratic party favors a tariff of 2£ cents on sugar and wants to put tin plate on the free list. As Mr. Lamb and Mr. Mc-Kenzie are to speak here to-morrow, perhaps they will furnish the desired information. Mr. Brookshire has persistently refused to tackle the subject.

LET no Republican voter be beguiled into a trade on any portion of tbe ticket. Propositions of this kind have been made but it should be borne in mind that tbe Democrat proposing it does not intend to stick to his bargain, as he well knows that there will be no moans of detecting his bad faith. Make no unholy alliances with the enemy.

BEWAKE of the political roorback just now. The Indianapolis Sentinel fills its columns daily of this kind of stuff. And what is the most ludicrous it asks intelligent people to believe it all. Its backwoods readers may gulp it down but with sensible men of all jmrties it in extremely disgusting.

EX-SKNATOK EVAKTS states the position of the Democrats on the currency question in a very apt and striking way when he says that "they hold it to be unconstitutional to have good money for the whole country, but constitutional to have bad money for every State in the Union."

TnE entire Republican ticket in this county is worthy of supjiort. Every man is possessed illi the qualifications to perform the duties of the office to which be aspires. Vote the ticket and vote it straight by stamping but once in the square surrounding the eagle.

THE efforts of the Democrats to get away from the wild-cat currency plank of the Chicago platform are ludicrous. But they can't do it the platform is made and the little organs can't unmake it.

REPUBLICANS have ample grounds for encouragement in the reports that come from every jjart of the country. Effort and vigilance are needed until election day has passed and victory will be ours.

FKOJI the way 6ome Democrats are kicking about Federal supervisors at I the election one would infer they were afraid of being overtaken in their dirty work. I

SENATOH IIILL must be more than ever convinced now that the "McKinley law has converted every workshop in the country into a Republican headquarters."

THE Republican party is going to win. This is as certain as the 8th oF November will come. All that it requires now is unceasing work.

IT is significant fact that the Cincinnati Enquirer and the New York World both advise Democrats not to bet on the election.

No wild cat, red-dog bank currencyThe people will tie an American tin can to the tail of the Democrat wildcat on election da v.

IE free trade would advance tbe price of wheat, corn, etc., would not free trade increase the price of manufactures?

"A TARIFF for revenue only" means an increase from two to four cents in the price of every pound of sugar.

IF the tariff does not benefit the farmer, would wheat bring a higher price under free trade.

STAMP but once, and 6tamp with care, and stamp within the eagle square.

THE wav to get out the the full Republican vote is to get it out.

Now is the time for every Republican to work.

DEMOCRATIC -HARMONY."

General Sickles on the Management of the Democratic Campaign.

General Sickles is still sarcastic and evidently still not "placated." Somebody asked him in New York the other day if he was going on the stump. He replied sarcastically: "Why should I? I belong to the Hill crowd and the Hill crowd don't amount to anything. That was the theory on which Cleveland was nominated. Why should we Hill mei: worry about the election? "Cleveland is all right, of course, without New York. He doesn't need New York. Mr. Vilas is going to carry Wisconsin, Mr. Dickinson is going to carry Michigan, Mr. Harrity is going to carry Pennsylvania, and Mr. llussell is going to carry Massachusetts. .There is no necessity for New York, with all these states going for Cleveland, and, of course, the Hill men are not necessary to his success. This being so, why should I or any of Mr. Hill's friends get excited over the election? They said we amounted to nothing at Chicago. Why r*A"^ld we amount to any more now?'' "How many of the soldier boys who were in the parade do you think will vote for Cleveland?'' the general was asked. "Very few," answered the commander of the old Third corps, with a shake of his head, "very few."
