The ticket from top to bottom is a- e ean a-- <1 clear as a whistle. aa<l wEI be e.ected by a Bryan majority that wHI be amaziug. Bnggs received 213 votes at his home precinct in sooth Wabash, a at boae that be sbonid feel proud of Dave E Smith and Jo Mann beats al. theXa-»e> Hank* on the market ■ Their pluralities exceed those of any suceetsfai candidate. Shoemaker received every vote in Har ford towa*mp bit twenty which demonstrates that at home I Will does eventing ap right. Let every one buckle on the 1 armor and gr<e.rn him*e.f for the I fray in November. Old Adams •ean roll up the largest vote on recjord if she only tries. The Democrat tickles its vanity ■and thinks it is the most enterprising representative of the art pre

. servative, on earth—or elsewhere. Some fifty more votes were polled in this city than was accorded to Bryan in 1696. This is explained by the grea. influx of first voters and the increase in population. Who said their was any flies on But.er. His vote was bnt 36 less than that of Shoemaker. Albert feels proud and extend* his thanks to the many staunch friends and ' supporters. 1 W. H. Shepherd has long been a war horse in the rank of democracy ; and he exemplified those sterling ' qualities by proclaiming that he ’ was for the ticket with all his old I time vigor. Wilson is made out of 1 the right stuff and no mistake. | The Democratextewh the band of sympathy to the defeated. For tunately they all understood that ; but. one could tie chosen and no j sore sp>t stands in the way of unity and good w ill to the success- , ful ones. It was the la-gest vote ever pdled at a primary, and signifies that old Adams will retain her 1 place <>f honor as the banner of al; ; i democratic counties Hnirah for 1 Bryan, free silver and that grand old emblem known as the rooster. At seven o’clock Saturday morni<ig popie in thi* city, Monroe, I, Berne, Geneva and other sections of the county had laid before them a tabulated statement ofthe primary. It showed the vote in every 1 precinct for every candidate on the ! ticket, and was a piece o f enter. I ! Prise never equaled before by any 1

pr:ntery in the county. Many o>mpiitnent« have been sho»rn-d up-n us for the display of enter pri?e. Any old rime the Demo ■rat is not equal to any enit-rg n cy. we will give you a party. A'ow is the timt tvaubsenbe. We want to extend onr congratulations to the manageaie'it and operat”ra of theC'itiz— s Teleph'M e Company fur the excellent service! rendered in giving the results us the election. Everything 111 «ved off like clock work, no mistakes were made and the figures given were corre« t. We have one of the best service p'ant* in the state, a fact every one appreciates We are sorry that the Dictates of our two commissioners. Mann and Repprt, fail to materialize in our art gallery, but conditions over which we haie no control, are respmsibl- for the abseut faces. In a case of this kind everything has to lie done in a rush, and it is a hard matter to see every one and do every thing one might want to. We will make up fur the delin quency at a later date. vnaitr Turpie.

The ibie speech ot Senator Turpie in support of the Teller resolution, presents very strongly the right and the p dicy ot the payment of the fnnded debt ot this country in silver. It is especially to be noted that the legal right •>! such payment is not question, d. No one, in congress or out, has denied the legal right of the United Stales to pay its bonds in silver coin, according to their term*. Tne whole basis ot the proposed steal of the m >netary commission is the cla m that it would be dishonorable for the government to claim its legal contract rights. The pretense u that it would be a violation ot faith for the government to do what it agreed to do. It is the same as a proposition that if A. sells 10,000 bushels of wheat to B. at *1 per bushel, to be delivered next Jane, it would be dishonorable in A. to deliver the wheat at that price it it were worth lers m June, but it would be honorable in B. to accept the wheat at that price if it were worth more in June. It is the avowal that it is dishonorable to live □ p to the terms of acontract on one side, but not on the other. There are two points of Senator Turpie's speech which are especially forcible. One is as to whether any value has gone out of the silver dollar. His argument from the fai t that every civilized nation on earth retains its silver com, and even the gold standard nations dare not give it what the gold bags are pleased to call its “intrinsic value,'’ 1* well made. So is the one drawn from the consent of the Bank of [England to hold one-fifth of its reserve in silver, and the readiness of
