r l here is not a law on the National statute books that was put there by the Democratic party, .lust wait till we can get a Democratic tariff law passed and good times will be the resnlt. • According to advices from Congressman Martin the pension office will revoke a large number of the suspensions of pensions and make ■ investigations instead of requiring the pensioners to make new proof. Tiie House of Representatives passed the Wilson bill repealing the purchasing clause of the Sherman act. The Voorhees bill which is essentially the same bill with a pledge fox bimetallism added will probably pass the Senate in a week or so and be sent to the House and pass there. What could be more sublimely impudent than John Sherman advising the Democratic party what course to take to insure the prosperity of the country. John ought to be satisfied with ruining his own party. If the country gets nd of his silver law it will probably shun his advice in the future. Chicago’s Mayor is going to wed again. He has buried two wives, and he is now going to get a wife who will bury him. The lady is Miss Annie Howard, of New Orleans. She is about thirty years old, and is said to be worth about $3,000,000. Mr. Ilarrison is sixtyeight years old. The wedding will occur during the latter part of September. The catholicity of the Catholic congress to be held in Chicago is illustrated by the fact that the list of delegates will include Chairman Carter, of the Republican National Committee, Chairman Harrity, of the Democratic National Committee, the Hon. Burke Cockran, Mayor Gilroy, and a host of other famous men of widely different views on subjects other than religion. If the parity of the money metals should be established by an increase in the ratio, the silver dollar would be a big thing. The present ratio in the United States is sixteen to one. If a man would realize how a dollar of twenty-four to one would feel in his pocket, let him glue a , dollar and a half dollar together. A dollar of twenty to one would be about the weight of the present dollar with a quarter pasted on. Mr.. Ex-Speaker Reed’s collosal impudence in claiming that the lawlessness of the House over which he presided, and before it had adopted rules, received the approval of the Supreme court, was exposed in the most merciless way by the present Speaker of the House who took the floor for the first time since he was chosen Speaker for that sole purpose. Reed, for once in his life, lost his wits and with them his audacity. He was not only sensible that he bad been roasted but had been Crisped into about 250 pounds of frizzled beef. A scientifc contest as to points of skill and rights have have been arranged between the officials of ■ the state of Indiana and those of the Columbia Athletic Club of Roby. Governor Matthews represents the state, O’Malley, President of the club represents that institution, while Judge Gillette, of the ?■ Lake county circuit court, is referee. ■. The press trained Matthews and O’Malley claims to have had the ’ training of the best legal lights of M Chicago. The first round was fought last Monday night and I s O'Malley was crowded to the ropes g ; \ as the,gong sounded, which saved : him. Queensberry rules were ignored and both parties have L agreed to abide by the rules. laid down by our last Legislature. Today the second round will be fought K the Outcome of which will settle (or I anaeltle) the standing of the club. KSMEmtT . .-d.-.L .-r’- -rr

wm knaves fall out. There is something more than a mere thfeat in the statement ol Senator Wolcott that if silver were ‘‘dethroned and degraded’ 1 by the repeal of the Sherman law he knew no reason why “any senator who believed infopo coinage should < ver cast another vote for protection in any form.” There is a revelation as well. It is an exposure of the infamous bargain ami sale methods by which the tariffed barons have maintained their hold on the purses of the people. “Protection in any form!” Here, is the confession that the Sherman law is merely a form of protection. It is'an agreement of the government to buy up the product of ,the silver mines and make it the basis of an issue of paper money. Il is the populist subtreasury scheme. There was no more justice in it than there would havebeen ifi the government’s buying any other commodity and storing it,in warehouses. It is indeed protectionism run mad, and no wonder the candid Mr. Wolcott tells the protectionists of the Senate that. Colorado ( must have her share of the booty or she will not play. The truth is that the mountain region is not practically benefitted by any portion of the general tariff law except the tariff on lead. That is practically the only product of the state that could come into competition with any foreign product, and the silver and lead industries of Colorado are so closely allied eo that any injury to'one is an injury to both. In other words the reduction in the price of silver necessarily cuts off a large part of the lead production of Colorado. For this reason lead is now advancing in price. Tne Colorado mining kings, who have always controlled the politics of the state, as the mining kings of Nevada and other mountain states also have done, have always carefully guarded the lead and silver interests. It is not many months since a treasury order was made excluding Mexican argentiferious lead ores in the interests of Colorado, although the law clearly did not sustain the ruling. The present attitude of that section is very good evidence that the real consideration for the passage of the Sherman lav/ was mountain support for the McKinley iniquity, and that now the link between the conspirators is broken. , * i * As an indication that this policy of abandoning protection is to be followed may be noted the advice of the rocky mountain News, one of the leading organs of the mountain silventes:

In the approaching tariff fight in Congress the free coinage men should not forget that the solid Republican vote from the protected districts was used to crush western mining and agricultural industries. Let that fact be kept green in the memory of free coinage men in Congress and give the protectionists a taste ofjthe bitter medicine they have given to the West. But the News is not less bitter toward the interests of protection represented by Democrats. Referring to Chairman Wilson’s policy it says: The Gormau-Rayner-Hill class of Democrats will, no doubt, oppose this tariff for revenue proposition and seek to prevent its consumation. Here the friends of free coinage cau repay old scores, Let Western Democrats, Republicans and Populists cast a solid vote against the Eastern men who joined Cleveland’s free trade contingent to crush silver coinage. It is apparent that the carrying of this policy into effect -means a radical break in party lines, and this too is boldly advocated \by the mountain press. The Colorado Sun, another leader of the-sifverites, announces it thus: It is more than a figure of speech these “banners in the West,’’ and it is not “improbable before many days there will go out from Colorado a call for a national convention be the the object of which will organization of this new national party. There arc a hiillion voters in this country who would hail such a coiß'entiou with joy, and we have no doubt that at the. first sight of these gleaming ban net’s there will be a speedy uprising equal in momentum to that which came upop the country forty-five years ago. To all. of which, w respond, good enough. "Join with us in smashing • the tariff, and bring -on yojir new party. The Democratic'' party has worn out and used up every polilical organization . ftiat has been brought into the field against it It has even survived its own attempt to commit suicide, 'and now stands ■serenely confident as the- champion of the masses against the classes in every struggle of tne people ,for justice and right. ' 11 fears no Aid party. It is with, the people, are the people are with it.—lndianapolis Sentinel.

LABOR DAY. Last Monday the seventh annual celebration by the labor organizations of the United States occured. So far as Decatur is concerned she celebrated but little, but her citizens have watched carefully the labor movements of our country. Since last Labor Day the trades unions have enjoyed a year of growth. There, has been no serious strikes. On the other hand, there has been a notable advance in the use of arbitration. Wo who live in small cities like Decatur can not see tile good these labor organizations rite doing. The peace of last summer were disturbed by bitter contests between capital and labor. .Many people suffered as a result of these arbitrary steps on both sides. Past experience with conservative and helpful leadership has given the trades union's greater wisdom and greater usefulness than they ever possessed before. Though at this time thousands of union workingmen are out of employment, the fraternal organizations which bind together the mon iu the various trades supply them with weekly allow ances ot money, thus relieving the communities in which they exist of a great burden and preventing widespread suffering and unrest. These trades unions al present are proving great blessings. The annual labor festival finds all conditions of mankind in hearty sympathy with its purposes and full of admiration for the good which has been wrought by workingmen actin unison and through sentiments of brotherhood. These organizations are growing and cannot be crushed out. The peace and tranquility of our country lies in their members being properly educated. If this is dona wisdom will characterize movements and in times like our present money stringency, these organisations will fie a blessing instead of a curse. It is gratifying to note that several of the large iron and steel industries in western Pennsylvania have- already rnsumed operations. Six thousand employes found immediate work by these resumptions. The large rolling mill at Birmingham also were announced to commence operations'. These mills employ about 1,300 men. Many of the industries .of the Indiana gas belt and sontt of the factories located in the southorn part of the state have/ recently resumed and we hope to record in the near future a busy time all along the line. The panic or depression of 1T93 seems to have run its course.

f T ,’U i'l ¥‘ s - The Democrat is in favor of improvement and will advocate an improvent whenever one us needed. We often hear strangers say that Second street is the roughest street they ever saw. Farmers are frequently heard to say that it is the roughest piece of road they ever rodeover. I’his. street should be improved. The large boulders should bo replaced by something much belter. They may bo good enough for some alley, hot'they are not the material for a good smoother street, such as Second street should be, Wo are in favor ot the improvement at once. The birch- wielders of Decatur commenced work last Monday. The. children are now off of the streets at least during school hours, and something good is expected of them. Decatur will soon have three school buildings. This will give the teachers a belter chance and it will also furnish better opportunities to the pupils. No teacher can handle fifty or sixty pupils and do them justice. The .coming school term our teachers will have a better chance and with the proper co-operation of the parents and a desire to learn on the part of the pupil, success is insured. Auditor of State Henderson has announced the following as the tax levy for state purposes for 1893: General fund of the State treasury, 18 cents on the SIOO. Benevolent institution fund, 5 cents on the SIOO. School revenues tor tuition fund, Fl 1-2 cents on the SIOO.. Permanent endowment fund, Indiana University, 12 cent on the SIOO. State debt sinking fund, 3 cents on the SIOO. In addition to this included the usual levy of 50 cents on each taxable poll for state purposes and 50 cents on each taxable poll for the school revenue for tuition fund. That confidence has been restored is evident from the reopeniug of a large number of banks and commercial houses that suspended operations last month. In all 68 national banks have resumed business, and 56. others are expected to resume within the next two weeks. Even in Colorado the suspended banks are reopening their doors, eight of the 68 referred to being located in that Mate.
