FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1895.

THE people are not ready for State bank notes as a substitute for greenbacks.

IF free trade Cleveland is a Jefifersonian Democrat, what was protectionist Jefferson himself?

THE time may come when the green' backs will be retired, but that time is not now. Secretary Carlisle is, therefore, wasting his breath.

ABOUT the only thing that thrives under the present administration is the deficit, which enjoys a growth of astonishing proportions.

IN 1S57 it cost 25 cents to carry a bushel of wheat by the cheapest route from Chicago to New York. It now costs less than six cents.

AMERICAN exports in the first year of the new tariff law fell off nearly $75,000,000. This is capturing the markets of the world with a vengeance.

IF the McKinley tariff did not protect the farmer why did the imports of farm products greatly decrease, and why have they so greatly increased since its repeal?

SECRETARY CARLISLE proposes toretire the greenbacks but he has nothing to suggest to take their place. The inference is that he is still hankering for the State bank scheme.

THE Louisville Post, a Democratic paper, says the race for Senator in that State "seems to be between McCreary, Democrat Blackburn, Populist and Hunter, Republican.

IN Japan, a good mechanic earns about 40 cents a day. Carpenters earn 30 cents a day, masons 25 cents, and street car conductors $5 a month. Japan is a good country from which to remain.

THE McKinJey tariff brought no hardship to any workingman nor to anybody else in the ^United States There is not a single class in the country to-day which does not feel the baneful effect of that instrument of robbery known as the Gorman bill.

FOR the last hundred years, or ever since it has been a State, Kentucky used the system of viva voca voting. Tae new constitution adopted a year or two ago provided for the secret ballot. This gave honest men a chance to cast an honest ballot. This is one reason why Kentucky went Republican. K.-/

MESSRS. CLEVELAND and Carlisle may as well make up their minds without further circumlocution thatJJ the coun try will not entertainjt'for a moment and proposition to« give up the present greenback sj stem in exchange for any scheme of State bank notes. The country has said to the Destructive Democracy, "thus far, but no farther."

THE Buffalo News thinks the excise issue was an important factor in the State campaign in New York. It says Thomas C. Platt-entered the Republican State Convention iat Saratoga afraid of the excise law. He trembled at the mention of the epigrammatical sentence that was electrified into the platform. He returned to New York City a coward [and forced a contrary expression—a compromise section. The result is that the State was carried by a phenomenal vote, nearly the entire Republican registration going to the polls. In New York City the registration falls {.short 45,000 votes, and Boss Piatt's campaign was a failure. It pays to be brave in great emergencies.

THE Armenian situation grows daily worse, and indeed is rapidly approaching the point at which either the Powers must interfere vigorously, or Russia will be forced to act by herself, fit is estimated that twenty thousand

Armenians have been massacred since the announcement of the agreement by which the Powers agreed to do nothing worth doing. The belief is growing that these massacres are planned and ordered by the authorities at Utamboul. It is certain that the Sultan's government makes itself an accomplicc after the fact, by apologizing for the massacres by the lying allegation that the Armenians, who have no arms, began by attacking the Moslems. The purpose seems to be to exterminate or expatriate the Armenians.

THE New York Tribune in .poitiling out the errors in Secretary Carlisle's Chamber of Commerce speech among others says:

The same law which restricts imports by adequate duties, and yields an adequate revenue to the Treasury, operates to stop both the outgo of gold from the Treasury and the outgo of gold from the country. That intelligent National policy was broken by the election of 1892. Gold which had been coming in during the month of October went out in November after the election. The Treasury gold reserve, which was §124,400,057 November 1, just before Cleveland's election, has run down below 590,000,000 in spite of the borrowing of §102,000,000, and is running down each week. Those who are incapable of understanding such facts as these naturally applaud Secretary Carlisle for saying that the source of peril is the circulation of notes which may be reissued. For fourteen years such notes circulated, and gold did not go out but came in largely, in spite of the payment of 81,209,700,00 bonded debt, much of it originally held abroad. In three years under a different policy the same notes are alleged to have increased the debt and taken out the gold. The assertion may do for politicians who have been phenomenal failures in finance. It ought to be too absurd for practical business men.

It is clear to all except to those who will not see that the national policy of protection kept the treasury fortified with an adequate revenue and reserve down to the L.- tr of President Cleveland's election.

THE Chicago 'Times Herald editorially commenting on politics in Indiana says that recent events indicate that the Democrats can no longer depend upon a working majority of 10,000 in Indiana. The Australian ballot, which it was thought had done so much for the Democracy in Indiana by making it impossible for their opponents to avail themselves of what- the Democrats were pleased to call "Dudley tactics," will not save the party next fall. It must also be borne in mind that the Republican party in Indiana has never been so thoroughly united since the Garfield campaign as it appears to be just now. It is doubtful if the present able and popular governor could stem the Republican tide next year. Even now Senator Voorhees hears the mournful winds of defeat soughing through the sycamore trees along the Wabash and is doubtless occupying his leisure moments in collating the material for a book or a lecture. It is rather early to take a pessimistic view of the situation, but the most sanguine Democrats can not see much hope for Indiana Democracy in 189G.

A CURFEW ordinance has been introduced in the city council at Terre Haute. It was prepared by a committee of three lawyers at the request of the Humane Society. The ordinance provides that the hours when boys and girls under 16 years of age shall be kept off the streets shall be between 9 p. m. and 5 a. m. that officers of the law may arrest an offender without process of law. The parent or guardian is held responsible, and is to be fined, but if it is shown that the boy or girl is incorrigible the parent or guardian is to be acquitted, and the penalty will apply to the boy or girl. If a boy or girl is on the street on an errand ofter hours no arrest can be made unless the boy or girl is loitering or "making an undue noise, calculated to disturb the peace of the inhabitants of the city." This is the kind of an ordinance that the parents in every city should favor.

THE report of the Bureau of Statistics, recently published, makes an interesting study, particularly for farmers. It will seen by a study of the tables that the imports of live animals increased 120 per cent, in the first year of the new tariff law, those of eggs 110 per cent., flax 140 per cent., feathers 220 per cent., hay 100 per cent., hemp 140 per cent., hides 140 per cent., seeds over 200 per cent., and wool over 400 per cent. Taking the total imports of the class coming into competition with the farmers of the country, theimport.s were increased more than 100 per cent, in value, as against the' preceding year, while of the exports the falling off was from 10 to 50 per cent. It makes a sorry showing for the new law toward opening up the markets of the world for the American farmer, and sustains fully the predictions made by the Republicans during its discus-

FINANCIALLY it is not a bad investment to be President of the United States. In addition to the salary of 850,000 a year, in addition be receives 836,064 to pay subordinate clerk hire. Private secretary, 83,250 his assistant private secretary, 82,250 stenographer, 81,800 five messengers, each 81,200 a steward, SI ,800 two doorkeepers, each 81,200 and others at good salaries $8,000 is allowed him for incidental expenses such as stationery, carpets, and the care of the stables. Under another head there is given 840,000 more: $12,500 for repairing and refur nishing the White House, $2,500 is for fuel, 84,000 is for the green house, and $15,000 is for gas, watches, stable, etc. The White House in connection with the President costs the country about $125,000 a year.

MONTGOMERY is the banner corn county of the State She stands at the head of the list.

SENATOR GORMAN, ib an interview the other day, explained the cause of the recent Democratic slump in Maryland as follows: "Maryland went Republican because it contains more Republicans than ever before. The plain truth is that the sentiment iu Maryland in favor of protection has largely increased." Mauy skilled laborers, worthy Republicans, he claimed, have been brought into the State in the last few years, and there are, moreover, "manv Democrats in Maryland who belisve in protection. This has caused a change, because these protection Democrats believe. that Republican control of the Government will mean permanence of the policy of protection. In every class the sentiment in favor

nf

protec­

tion has strengthened, aud the depression of the last two years has caused many to u:rn for relief to the party, not in power, but with a consistent record in favor of protection to home industries."

The Senator might have added that what is true of Maryland, is also true of Kentucky and of the entire country. The people have had an object lesson in tariff reform and they are "turning for relief to the party with a consistent record in favor of protection to home industries."

THE Democratic New York Sim put some pointed questions to Secretary Carlisle after he delivered his Chamber of Commerce speech which that gent'eman should answer. It says:

What the Chamber of Commerce and the rest of the. country wanted to hear from Mr. Carlisle was a clear and definite statement of the means, if any, whereby the Administration proposes to fill the gapitig holes made in the Treasury by a tariff for bunco only. How do Mr. Cleveland and Mr. Carlisle expect to make up the deficit? What devices for raising revenue have they got in their heads? Where and how are they going to get the money to pay the expenses of the Government, economically or otherwise administered'.' Mr. Cailisle sedulously avoided giving any information as to the points in regard to which information is needed. His speech was as timely and filling as a last year's almanac.

It seems that the Secretary spoke to conceal, rather than to reveal what the people want to know.

A WRITER in the Chicago Inter-Ocean answering the statement that there is no reference to the tariff in the Book of Books says:

The world Tariff may not be in the Bible, nor do I think you could readily find the word Methodist there. However, if you read the ninth verse of the ninth chapter of Matthew you may become convinced that custom houses existed in the time of the Savior, and that he chose Matthew, whom he found "sitting at the receipt of custom," for his first dicipie. A learned Methodist minister not long ago sent me the following, which I copy: "Some one asked His disciples if the Master paid tribute. When His disciples came to Him He gave them this question. 'Of whom do the kings of the earth receive tribute, of their own children or of strangers?' They say to him: 'Of strangers.' He replied: 'Then are the children free'."

IF it is true as is stated that Thomas B. Reed as Speaker will prevent a reopening of the tariff question, aid that

Dills

for placing on the dutiab

list and increasing the duties on plate and other articles will notle allowed to come up in the House during the coming session, he will earn the title of the "Old-Man-Afraid-of-His-Shadow." The incoming Congre: has a peremptory mandate from the people to perform a duty, and that dury is to revise the tariff on protection lines. If the President vetoes such a bill upon him and his party must rest the responsibility. Mr. Reed will not advance his interests as a candidate for the Presidency by preventing the legislation that the people demand.

THE JOURNAL climbs down from its partisan perch long enough to say that Governor Matthews made a splendid speech in Philadelphia the other evening on the Cuban question. It was ooth patriotic and eloquent and will find a warm response in the heart of every true American. This of course does not include Grover Cleveland, as but for him this speech would have been delivered at Atlanta. Anything that will produce friction with any foreign country Grover steps on it with both pedals.

THE Plymouth Democrat, Hon. Daniel McDonald, editor, has ienounced its old party principles after 40 years and thus leaves Marshall county, one of the banner Democratic counties in the State, without an organ. Daniel lives near Maxinkuckee where the Democratic editors resolved to rest beneath the shade of the olive trees on this side of the river and wait the repairs on the ramshacklin bridge. The bridge is still out of repair, and Daniel, as one of the bridge carpenters, seems to have abandoned the job as a hopeless case

WALNUT and Clark townships are circulating remonstrances against granting liquor licenses to applicants. Two kinds of remonstrances are being used, one directed against tho individual and the other against the traffic. The latter is in conformity with Judge Rabb's recent decision, that the word "any" in the law means "all."

DURING thirty-three years of protection, 1800-93, the wealth of the United States increased by 857,405,000,000. Is not this satisfactory evidence that protection is a gool thing for the country?

If your children are sick, give that greatest of all children's remedies, Dr. Greene's Nervura, the great blood and nerve invigorant and health restorer. This wonderful remedy is above all, a family medicine, aud its name is a household word in thousands of homes all over the land. It is made from pure and harmless vegetable remedies, is calming, soothing and healing to the nerves, and at the same time strengthens and invigorates the entire system, restoring a healthful color to the cheek, refreshing sleep, strong nerves, stout limbs and that bounding health and vitality, which all children should have. It is perfectly safe to

IK Congress would pass a law requiring the payment of duties on imports or a stated portion of them, in gold, it would keep the reserve in the treasury far above the 8100,000,000 mark, and preclude the necessity of bond issues. Better still if the United States had a tariff" law that would turn the balance of trade iu our favor, this balance would be settled in gold, and there would be an inflow instead of an outtlow of the yellow metal.

Will some admirer of the Tall Sycamore relieve the anxiety of the C. Gt A few months ago it was announced with a ilourish of trumpets that he was coming to Indiana to make free silver speeches. The latest heard from him he was lecturing on the "Resurrection.''

Tin-: tiuie is most opportune for the application of business principles to the work of tariff revision, aud the Republican Congress has a chance to make a record iu this regard which

give to children of any aire, and its curative and restorative effects are wonderful.

Mrs. H. Silver, of 142 Lewis street, New York City, was not only restored herself to health by Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, but her two children, whose portraits are here given, were made strong and well by this grand medicine. Mrs. Silver says: "I was nervous for four years so that I could do nothing. I went to different doctors, but none could help me. I read so much in the papers about Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, that I thought I would try it. After the first bottle I felt relieved, so I used a couple of bottles more and now I am all right again. I thank Dr. Greene's Nervura for the good it did me. "I also have two little girls who were sick, weak ahd run down, to whom I gave Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy. It did them so much good that I canuot be thankful enough. It made them well and strong again, and they are now, thanks to this wonderful remedy, healthy and vigorous. Before I took Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy I could not eat or sleep, could not do my housework, but now I am like a different woman. I give this testimonial that other sufferers may read it and know the good Nervura did me and my children."

Use Dr. Greene's Nervura in all ner vous diseases of infants and children, and see them improve in health and strength every day and hour.

It is not a patent medicine, but the prescreption of the most successful living specialist in curing nervous and chronic diseases, Dr. Greene, of 3r west 14th street, New York City. He has the largest practice in the world, and this graud medical discovery is the result of his va6t experience. The great reputation of Dr. Greene is a guarantee that his medicine will cure, and the fact that he can be consulted by anyone at any time free of charge, either personally or by letter, gives absolute assurance of the beneficial action of this wonderful medicine.
