C0XS1STEXCY, THOU AKT SOT DEMOCRA TIC. The organette tries to get out of its predicament in refusing to publish republican resolutions this year by citing the refusal of the Banner Times to publish some pro hibition resolutions. The resolu tions it refers to, we presume, were the ones passed by a few represent atives of that partj T who met in the I mayor’s office on February 10 last. I The Banner Times, with its usual I enterprise, sent a reporter to that | meeting, and after a long wait, was furnished a copy of the proceed ings, which contained the names of the candidates nominated. Our comment on the convention was as

follows:

Tho mammoth prohibition convention sot for this city Saturday did not materialize that morning at theappointed time.Thefact is there are not many prohibitionists this year, most of them having seen the error of their way ami returned to the republican party. The court room was being cleaned out Saturday preparatory to the opening of court, and that afternoon at two o’clock a very few men were holding a meeting in tin* mayor’s office, when they fixed up the following ticket. [Here follows tin* ticket.] The above is all that was said

We condemn the order of Hoke Smith, secretary of the interior, wherein the peosionsrs were suspended from the roll utter inakintr the proof required by the irovermncnt ami re<lutrlnKihem to make further proof bet ore reinstatement, thus commlttiDK «a act of injustice by condetnninK a man tirst and trying

him afterward."

The above extracts, no doubt, are additional matters, in the opinion of its editor, the readers of the organette were not ‘‘aching to peruse,” and they were seen only in the Banner Times, which gives all the news. The organette had better consider these failings on reporting the minor parties as well as on the major parties before it tries to make capital out of a second handed article which this paper declined, as it had evidently been bottled for the Democrat's especial delectation. The Official Score.

The shooting match at Carbon yesterday afternoon between Dr. Giti'ord, of this city, and Mr. Thompson, of Greencastle, on one side, and John Eardly, of Perth, and Mr. Loveall, of Carbon, and was witnessed by a large crowd of people. The Carbon team won the match by working their opponents. According to agreement, one side was to furnish tho pigeons for the other. The Carbon party scoured the country and secured old pigeons that flew out of the trap like the wind, making the shooting difficult. On the other hand the Brazil party could only get young pigeons that were an easy mark. This made the match too one sided. The Carbon party won by a score of 23 to 20. The following is the score: Thompson 9 UitTord H

We quote liberally today from resolutions which have been overlooked by democratic papers hereabouts in their anxiety’ to give the

news.

Tin: organette, otherwise known as the Democrat, after a month’s labored effort, tries to make a defense of its treatment of republican resolutions, and goes into a column tirade against calamity howlers that is amusing, it still refuses ,to publish the republican resolutions for, as it says, the following

reasons:

The Democrat lias printed a fair report of every republican convention held in Greencastle since February 20, ls!»2. The set of resolutions adopted by the recent county convention coneainetl striking or original, or anything our eeailers were aching to pet use. We dnbbbed them “a calamity howl,” and this phrase exactly described the wonderful production that is giving the Banner Times so much uneasiness. So there was nothing in them the Democrat's readers were aching to peruse. “The unparalleled prosperity of our government and its people while harvesting the benefits of a republican protective policy carefully contrasted with the present condition of uncertainty and depression, which is—as many leaders of the democratic party and the leading democratic papers of the country concede—directly due to threatened tariff and financial legislation,” is, we suppose, nothing to interest democratic readers. The other good but plain statements of the republican platform this year (which the Banner Times up to date has a “scoop” on) are not interesting according to the Democrat. “The long continuation of the democratic party in power in Putnam county has invited evils and practices that are detrimental to the people, and we believe that the time has come when a change is desirable to a majority of the voters of Putnam county,” is a

about the meeting, and if the Democrat calls that a “bitter and uncalled for attack on the citizens of Putnam county who believe in the principles of the movement,” we are willing to let it stand at that. Facts are stubborn, and we were about right when we remarked that there were not many prohibitionists this year, as it has developed that they were so satisfied with the republican nominees in the city election that they would put out no ticket, notwithstanding one of the democratic candidates nearly wore out his constitution, and, perhaps, his by-laws, in trying to get them to nominate before the time run out. No resolutions were given the Banner Times at that meeting, but they were furnished the Democrat. When they finally were offered us later, then being stale, they were declined. The Banner Times has a peculiar fashion of its own of publishing news when it is fresh, and all it asks is a fair shake at a piece of news, in open convention, and not at the roundabout agency, of a

committee.

As the organette has gone rambling off into side-issues and seeks to ignore the main question, we will jog it up on its own ground a little. Why didn't it print the well-worded resolutions read in open meeting by the populists at their county convention on January 27 last. The resolutions were to the point and ripped Mr. Cleveland up the back right lively. All the great, fair-minded, resolutionpublishing organette gave them was this: “The committee on resolutions read a lengthy report, which was adopted.” An astonishing piece of news that! Maybe that was a calamity howl also. The Banner Times had them in type an hour after they were read. We quote a few extracts from those populist resolutions as follows: •‘We heartily conilenin the cowardly and treacherous action of Senators Voorheea and Turple and CouKrossman tieorue W. Cooper.” "We condemn the administration of Grover Cleveland as un-American, unstutesmanllke and In the interest, of the capitalists and against the Interests ot the millions of honest men and women who make their living by

honest toll.”

A NEW IDEA. You will remember that Goliah was very much surprised when David hit him with a rock. Me said such a thing had never entered his head before.

ANOTHER SURPRISE. Some of our people may he surprised when we tell them that the best Daily paper for their needs is the Daily Banner Times, of Greencastle, Ind. HERE’S THE idea: Perhaps you are not taking it. If not, why not. It’s cheap enough, prompt as is the coming of the day, and has all the local news at the right time.

IT’S

ADVERTISING. Merchants who have tried it say it’s the best advertising medium in the city. That’s another surprise, but the advertisers will testify to the fact. DON’T DELAY.
