THE DEMOCRATIC PRESS rVM.I*N*n WH41.1. DEMOCRATIC PRESS I’UHLISIIING CO. LEW Q. ELLINGHAM, EDITOR. •I.M> PER YEAR IN ADVANCE. Knwn'd ll"' l*<Ml<>m.-rKi iHx-zlar. Indians u* Mull Muller. THURSDAY, JANUARY 33. Charles W. Fairbanks is reported to have macle a speech to the college at mien t a at Blooming* ton a few days ago in which he turned into a political harangue. The students promptly called him down. Editor McDonald, of the Ligonier Banner, haa announced hia candidacy for congress in the twelfth district. He ie a good ma i and would make a good congress man. If congress were made up of newspaper men once, purity itself, would be therb.

The democratic county central committee will meet in this city, Saturday, February 8. At thia meeting much iu. portant business will lie considered, so it is necessary that every member of the committee Is- present. Don’t send a substitute, but ct,me yourself. The Pornlaud Sun kindly men tions the name of our fellow townsman, J. F. Mann, as being about the right size and* of the proper qualifications to represent this district in congress, and with that end in view suggested him as the proper person for the democrats in this ) district to nominate. Mr. Mann informs the Press reporter that while he truly appreciates the kindness and g<sal will of his Jay county friends, yet he is in no sense a candidate for the honors mentioned.

An evidence of the popularity of the administration’s foreign policy is seen in the active support now vouchsafed in the alleged candidacy of Secretary Olney fur president. His nomination would perpetuate the policy of the Cleveland administration for a moderate tariff, and such a support of the Monroe doctrine as will convince European powers that the American Republic will not consent that European aggrandizement shall proceed another step either in North or South America. There is no question about Olney’s almunding ability and pluck, nor of his complete equipment to make a president who would honor the people that should elect him.

Foraker in his speech accepting the United States senatorship,' among other things said: “I be-1 lieve also in bimetalism. I believe’ the world made a mistake when it demonetized silver. I sincerely j hope some safe way n ay l>e found for the restoration of silver to its rightful place alongside of gold as a money of ultimate redemption. I shall favor every measure calculated, in my judgment, to bring about that result, subject, always, however, to the condition that it provides for the maintenance of the parity of the two metals. Every dollar of money issued by the United Statesgovernment, whether gold, silver or paper, must be of exactly eqi al value with every other dollar. The United States cannot afford to have a currency system or a money standard less good or less high than the l>est in ail the world.”

The Kentucky legislature is still a dead lock on their vote for United States senator. The final outcome is not clearly known at pres ent.

Some time ago a man in New Jersey offered an old and worn silver coin to a conductor of a train, which was refused, and the man was put off. He sued in the state court and was given #315 and the costs. The case was appealed to the supreme court, and Chief Justice Fuller decided in the plaintiff’s favor, and in his decision says: “Silver coins are a legal tender as long as they bear the semblance of the coin ” That seems to be a little ahead of gold coin, which, when worn, is sold by weight and not on its face value.

, Gov. Drake of lowa, has strong . Americanism which compels him in an inaugural address, to the endorsement of the president's Vene ■ zuela message and the* declaration that the traditional doctrine of the Republic must i»e defended as a vital principle—“ifnecessary, with force-of arms.*’ Gradually it will t»egin to dawn upon the benighted consciousness of aliens on lioth sides of the water, in New York and Washington as well as in London and Berlin, that the sons of the state are all Americans first, ami democrats or republicans last. The obnoxious Joseph Pulitzer, editor of the New York World, has received the condemnation < f thousands of prominent Americans for his cycophantic telegrams to the Prince of Wales and Rothschild, claiming that American sentiment had changed. Especially has he l>een condemned by Americans of I foreign birth, who have been among the readiest to enlist to defend the integrity of republican government ami for the honor and glory of the flag. He is especially non i representative of this class of American citizens, whose blood would be poured out like water on every’ field of the great war that I will follow if Great Britain does not -so for as South America is concerned —abandon her policy of international highway robbery.

Rervblican patriotism is at a low ebb, if one were to judge from the remarks of Senator Sewell of New Jersey, who impressed the fact in the senate that the executive in the white house hatl pressed the Monroe doctrine be yond its original purpose, and that in any event his remarks were pre mature. It would be stultification beyond parallel if the senate were to assent to Mr. Sewell’s concluding contention, as defined in his elaborate peace and dishonor resolution, that “neither congress or the

country can beor has been committed by the action or position of the executive department in reference to the Venezuelan l>oundary controversy as to the course to lie pursued, etc. When congress gave author it j - to the president to appoint a commission todetermine the true divisional line between British Guina ami the Venezuela, it committed itself, and, as we think, irrevocably, to the action and position of the executive department in reference to the Venezuelan boundary controversy. There can be no avoidance of the responsibility which congress gladly embraced the opportunity of sharing equally with the president. Such resolutions as the one proposed by Mr. Sewell may serve as legislative pegs to hang speeches on, but they were l»etter deliveretl at some gathering of Britons celebrating the Queen’s birthday.

Theodore Runyon minister to Germany, is dead. His death resulted from heart disease, and came sudden and unexpected. Vhe Delphos Courant alludes to Speaker Reed as a boss, a dictator and a blow. The Courant talks very unkindly. It should swallow Reed as it swallows many other bitter pills. General Harrison is accredited with correling another big attorney fee of #IO,OOO. He made that amount in a two hours’ argu- 1 ment, which sums up #5,000 an hour, or $1 a word for 10,000 words. We know people in town who talk ten hours every day for less money.'

The Sun learns with pleasure that Hon. James F. Mann, of De- i catur, is being spoken of by his democratic friends, as an available Candidate to make the race for Icongre s in this congressional dis Strict. Mr. Mann is a resident of the banner democratic county of the district, a scholarly gentleman, lawyer of ability, well and fayorlably known, and if nominated, would undoubtedly make a cred iti able race in the new district carved out by the last legislature for the benefit of republican aspirants.— Portland Sun.
