FRIDAS, OCTOBER 13, 1893.

TO THE UBLIC,

W. C. Stewart has been employed by THE JOURNAL as traveling agent. He is authorized to solicit subscriptions, advertising and all kinds of job printing, and to make collections and receipt for the same. It is his intention to visit every portion of the county within the next few months and we bespeak for him a kind reception by the people.

THE El wood Leader says that Democratic timeB and sales of lots for taxes go hand in band in that place.

THE receipts of the Pontoffice Department were 3 per cent, less in August, 1893, than in August, 1892. And if the facts were known the expense was was greater.

THE New York Democratic platform congratulates Oleveland upon "the auspicious beginning of bis Administration." Those New York Democrats have a vein for the humorous.

THE Federal election laws have never put any fraudulent votes into the bal-lot-box, neither have they kept any honest votes out. No wonder the Democrats are prejudiced against them.

OUT of 75,000 hands employed in the carpet, woolen and knitting mills of Philadelphia, 32,009 are out of work. Both employes and employer declare that this plight has been wrought by the threatened changes in the tariff. This blow demonstrates afresh that war on protected industries is literally war on American homes.

THE Lafayette Sunday Quohosli has made its appearance. It is edited by Judge W. S. Haggard and is an offshoot of the Saturday Herald. What its name indicates nobody knows but the versatile Judge. But whatever it may mean the paper iB spicy and readable. In politics it is Republican and it promises to call thing by their right names.

IT seems that Congressman Brookshire ban been poaching upon the preserves of Senator Turpie. It is asserted that it was through his influence that the postmaster at Thorntown was removed and a simon pure Democrat, whatever that may mean in these days, was appointed in bis stead. It is darkly hinted that Yory would not be averse to step into Mr. Turpie's shoes with both feet.

THE notorious ana corrupt Judge Maynard has been nominated by the New York Democratic convention for Judge of the Court of Appeals. A party that can stomach such timber as Maynard can have no ecruoles in accepting Sim Coy as a leader. Coy condoned his rascality by serving a term in the penitentiary, while Maynard who was proven guilty of a greater offense, was rewarded by an appointment to the position he now fills and which he seeks to continue by election.

ALL eyes are turned toward Indianapolis watching the progress of the battle now on between the forces of decency and good order on the one hand, and Coyism and all that that name implies, on the other. The election comes off next Tuesday, and until that time there will be no sleep neither day nor night, as it is war to the knife and knife to the hilt on both sides. The Journal, the News and the Sun are fighting the corrupt gangsters, while the Sentinel is their champion. The indications point to a decisive victory for the friends of good government.

SENATOR GORMAN has been compelled to make the humiliating confession that never before in the history of the country had there been the spectacle of the representative of the Administration in the Senate who WBB the leader in charge of an Administration measure depending upon the political opposition for the majority to pass the bill. This extraordinary statement coming from the leader of the Democracy is virtually an admission that bis own party with their responsible majority in both branches of the Congress and controlling the Executive, was foroed to appeal to the Republican minority to help the governing party out of its dilemma. ,.

INDUSTRIAL CENSUS.

The last American Economist gives a report of the industrial census just taken by the American Protective Tariff League. The conditions of manufacturing industries and wholesale and retail trade are compared for the weeks ending September 2, 1893, and November 5, 1892. With reference to the first week the report says: "Orders for goods had been canceled, the demand for goods had fallen off there was little or no buying markets were demoralized and business was paralyzed the erection of proposed buildings had been stopped, no new work was being undertaken, and economy was enforced everywhere. It was difficult for men in business to secure money, and jobbers weie largely reducing their stocks of goods, and generally there was a lack of confidence throughout the country. From our census it uppear^ that the same large Industries In which during the week ending November 5, 1892, were employed 143,401 hands, were during the week ending September 2, 1893, employing only 56,384 hands. "Jliis was a decrease of 87,017 persons employed, or 01 per cent. In the matter of wages, we are sorry to say that the difference is even greater. Employers who were paying $1,509,891 in weekly wages duriujr the week ending November 5, 1892, were only paying in the same establishment during the week ending September 2, 1893, the amount ol" $459,089.94. This was a decrease of $1,050,802, or fi94 per cent, less money circulated in weekly wages. The lact was reported from all sections of the countrj that labor was abundant ,aad cheaper than last year and men willing to work for less money. Some factories were running without orders, merely, as stated by the employers, to try and help their laborers. A few were still running on contracts entered into early in the year, but they will close later. The greatest shrinkage In the amount of wages paid out has been in the money paid out the Middle States and in the New England section. Practically there was but one-half the amount of trado being done throughout tie country duringthe week ending September 2,1893, than there was during the week ending Novembei 5,1892."

THE hard times began when Mr. Cleveland came into power. If this were merely a coincidence it would be remarkable. But that Democratic assumption of control of the government and the depression of business were indeed cause and effect is an unavaidable conclusion. Mr. Cleveland went to Washington pledged by his platform to assail with hostile legislation the vatt and complex industries built up in this country under the protective system. That fact chilled the heart of every protected manufacturer in the United States. It checked proposed extensions, it made prices unstable, it depreciated the prices of stocks of material, it made difficult and dangerous all operations extending into the future, it depreciated the value of every manufacturing plant and it shortened the credit of every mill owner operating with borrowed money. These influences, and these alone, have forced to the wall in quick succession manufacturers who, on election day, 1892, were doing a prosperous business upon sound principles and these influences, still operative, will continue to wrench and disrupt and wreck manufacturing enterprises, no matter what may be done with the silver purchase law.

EVEN should the purchasing clause of the Sherman law be repealed, which at present

seemB

doubtful, the people will

learn, if they do not already know it, that the Shermnn law has had but very little to do with the loss and destruction of the last six months. The Sherman law has not caused the "distrust'' that has closed hundreds ot factories, bankrupted thousands of firms and impoverished multitudes of American citizens. Under a Republican Administration we had the Sherman law in full operation with a marked commercial prosperity and the most encouraging development. The Sherman law had furnished the country with about one hundred and fifty millions of urgently needed currency, every dollar of which is equal in purchasing power to the god dollar. The "distrust" is caused by the threat to smash our industrial system, and the responsibility belongs to the Democratic party.

ONE by one the Democratic idols are being torn from the throne. The worshippers of the Tall Sycamore are becoming cold and indifferent, as witness this from the Review of last Saturday:

Senator Voorhees In some respects seems to have outlived his time, and doea hot have the influence and respect of the Democracy as formerly. His action on the silver question in the present Congress after his past declara tions stamp him too much as a time-server and demagogue.

This is the unkindest cut of all. If this is the sentiment of the Revieio in regard to the senior Senator it must entertain feeling akin to this concerning the Consecrated One who occupies the Presidential chair.

ALTGELD, the Anarchist Governor of Illinois, has opened the prison doors to ninety-five convicts daring the seven months of bis official career. He seems to be a friend of anarchists.jail birds and penitentiary convicts.

CONGRESSMAN BROOKSHIRE raised his puny voice yesterday in favor of the repeal of all laws providing for fair elections. He is in favor of Tammmy, with ail of its corrupt methods, having full sway.

HULETT'S CLAIK TO BE JUMPED The Washington correspondent of the Indianapolis News sends out the following, which will be read with painful interest by the friends of Walter F. Hulett:

Senator Voorhees called on Secretary Carlisle this morning to histen the appointment of Joshua Jump as collector in the Seventh district. One result of the Senator's call was the request made to-day by the Secretary of the Treasury for the resignation of Jos. P. Throop, the Terre Haute Republican collector. Joshua Jump will probably be appointed collector of the Terre Haute internal revenue district as soon as the resignation of Collector Throop reaches Washington. The Secretary of the Treasury thought to-day that the appointment would follow immediately on the receipt of Collector Throop's resignation, of course Secretary Carlisle would not in icate who would be appointed, but there is but little doubt that Jump will win. He is indorsed by the two Senators, by Congressmen Kretz, Brown and Cocper. Congressman Tavlor has indorsed George L, Dixon, of Evansville. and Congressman Urookshire has indorsed W. F. Hulett, of Crawfordsvilie. Mr. lirookshire is making a strong resistance against Jump's appointment and may prevent it, although it is hardly probable. Mr. xJrooksliire's seat in Congress is understood to be involved in the light, and it is Claimed that the appointment of Jump, who is John E. Lamb's law partner, will mean that the seventy or odd appointments in the Terre Haute district will be made with a view to aiding Lamb in his race against Brookshire for the congressional nomination next year.

This would indicate that Huiett's name is Dennis. It means a strengthening of the Lamb faotion, and places him in the lead for the Congressional nomination. The appointees of Jump will be chosen from among the friends of Lamb and they will be placed in such a way as to do the most good. The Swallowtails of this county will probably receive recognition, and the power thus acquired they will use to avenge the loss of the postoffice. Hulett will probably be a candidate for Auditor,but there are other Richmonds in the field who will combine tneir forces against him. Their mutterings against both Brookshire and Hulett are low but deep. The different factions are arranging their lines. The result will be awaited with interest.

GREEN SMITH, the political sandbagger, who usurped the powers of the Lieutenant Governor in 1887, and deprived Col. R. S. Robertson of the office, has at last made confession of his crime. Colonel Robertson, it will be remembered, instituted suit to recover the •alary unlawfully drawn and held by him. It has been dragging its slow length along ever since until last Saturday when Smith walked into the Superior court room and confessed judgment for $500 and court costs. It was a most villainous conspiracy to defeat Benjamin Harrison for re-election to the Senate. It succeeded, of course, but it made General Harrison President of the United States. To confess now at this late date that a great crime was committed must be humiliating even to the rhinocerous skinned Smith.

BANK clearances still keep far below last year's figures, the shrinkage in the week just ended being 30 per cent, as compared with the same period in 1892. No marked improvement has taken place in bank transactions in the past few weeks, showing that, although about hfilf of the wrecked banks have resumed operations and many of the factories which closed in July and early August have reopned, but they have reopened with greatly reduoed number of workers and reduced wages, so that there has been no extended revival in trade.

THE Review evidently is reading the handwriting on the wall. In an Hrticle on district politics it admits that Brookshire may be defeated, but that is equally true that the Vigo county gentleman can never succeed him. It warns the Democraoy against mistakes and closes with these significant words: "The tide is now against us to some extent. It may reach an overwhelming flood by election time nest year." The Revieio is right.

SENATOR VOOBHEES told the Sentinel correspondent at Washington yesterday that "we will pass unconditional repeal or we will bust the engine and ditch the train." Whether the repeal bill is passed or whether it is not passed the Senator's words will come true. The Democratio engine is bound to bust and the consequences will be a ditched Democratic train with engineer Voorhees among the debris.

THE Indianapolis Journal has placed in its composing rooms lineotype machines, that is machines to set the type for ils pages. The change from the old to the new method has been gradual until now every page is as beautiful as a sixteen year old miss in a new party dress. Typographically the Journal always was neat,but in its new rig it has surpassed itself.

CHICAGO Day at the White City exceeded all expectations in the numbers in attendance. In their guesses but few went beyond 500,000, and when the report came that 725,000 were there it was simply amazing.

MINISTERS TELL IT.

WE HATE OUlt JfASTOR'S ASSURA*CE OF THESE A AC1S.

The Word of Ministers Taken as the Strongest I* ovf.

I'ersons Believe the Pastor Before Anyone Else In the World.. •,

There are no words so strong as those, spoken by the true minister of the gos pel. One knows and feels instinctively that such wor Js come from the heart and are prompted only by the earnest purpose of doing good to humanity.

We do not wonder, therefore, at the great iniluenoe with the public of the strong and ringing words of praise which the eminent divine, Rev. C. D. Meacham, gives that most wonderful of medicines, JJr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. When he was run down in health, weak in nerves, pros trated in strength, and with his blood badly impaired, he was restored to:.ound and vigorous health by this marvelous health renewer.

Here are the exact facts in his own words: "I am very glad to say in regard to Dr. Greene's great remedy that when my blood was badly imnoverished by an old scrofula humor, and my nervous system was greatly impaired, Dr. Greene's medicine gave me wonderful relief. "At the present time my health is as gcod as at any time in my life, and mj confidence in Dr. Greene's remedy is constantly increasing.

REV. C. D. R. MEACHAM.

Pastor Baptist Church, Townshend, Vt." Doubtless the eame heartfelt sy mpathy and great desire to see the siok made well inspired the Rev. Dr. J. W. Walker, Presiding Elder of the Methodist church, Fort Dodge, la., to also recommend Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy to the sick and suffering. He, too, has used it himself he, too, knows that it cures, that it is sure to make the sick well if they use it. "I have given Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy a fair test, and am free to say that I consider it rightly named. I have recommended its use to several. REV. J. W. WALKER,

Presiding Elder, Fort Dodge, la. We have published the testimonials of vast numbers of people who were cured by theuse of the great discovery, Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, but we take mere pleasure in giving to the world Rev. Mr. Meacham's own words and those of Rev. Mr. Walker in regard to the wonderful benefits they received from this valable remedy, because we realize that the earnest words of a minister will have great weight with sufferers from diaease, and everybody who reads their convincing words in regard to the sure and remarkable curative powers of this medicine will lose no time in securing a bottle and thus obtain a cure.

Most people need a medicine to invigorate the blood, strengthen the nerves and start up a health action of the liver, kidney and bowels. Be sure and use Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. It is purely vegetable and perfectly harmless, 8nd is kept by all druggists at $1.00.

Its discoverer is the well known Dr. Greene, of 35 W. 14th street, New York, who gives consultation and advice free to the sick, personally or by letter. The sick should use immediately Dr.Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, for it is not only the best remedy ever discovered, but those using it have the privilege of consulting Dr. Greene personally or by letter, concerning its effects, their health, etc. This fact alone guarantees the assurance of cure. If you need a medicine do not fail to take" this best of all remedies.

Divorceomania.

Mr. Frank Busenberg, escorted by W. M. Reeves, has come placidly into the well scrubbed precincts of the circuit court and, hut in hand, has humbly requested a filigree worked divorce documents releasing him from further obligations appertaining to Sarah, his wife. Sarah, inconstant girl that she is, slipped away one line night with all the silver wedding presents tied up in a pillow slip. She hasn't come back any more and Frank has become tired of leaving the lighted candle in the window for her and has accordingly turned her picture toward the wall.

The Postoffice Uhange.

It. is not yet definitely settled just when Mr. Bonnell will retire from the postmastership and Mr. Voris step in. If Mr. Voris receives his appointment before Saturday night, and it is thought he will, the change will take place at the end of this week. If he does not receive the appointment until next week, however, the change will not take place until the end of next week.
