than thej r were in 1885 with exactly the same tax rate? Do democrats want their people kept in the dark on national issues similar to the way they have been kept in ignorance of county affairs? Their action in the Harris matter looks
like they do.
The Banner Times lias invited Putnam republicans to attend democratic meetings and compare the fallacies of democratic orators with the solid truths of republican speakers, and we will further agree to publish democratic appointments if furnished this paper, and if the democratic papers are too timid to

! Case on the authority ol this paper, i approached Chairman Colliver and
are not misrepresenting their 1873 cry, they are surely robbing the people on high valuation. We mention this merely to show Putnam people how inconsistent is the average democratic argument. Too much praise cannot oe given to the local speakers who are doing so much to spread the gospel truth of republicanism. There never has been a campaign in which so many of them were earnestly enlisted, and it is a high trib ute to their personal unselfishness that they are ever ready to go where they can do the most good— to the rural school house or crossroads or elsewhere. The campaign
offered, if the democratic papers would announce republican meetings throughout the campaign this paper daily and weekly would do the same for the democratic party. .Mr. Colliver had the fairness to agree to it and the Democrat accepted but the Star-Press refused. The Courier,!oomnl today says : .Mr. Arthur Sewall, whose gold contracts have already placed him in an awkward situation for a fret silver candidate,is in another scrape through his mixture of business and politics.

SCOTT JACKSON’S CASE. The Case set for October 1, in
Court of Appeals.
The case of Scott Jackson after a rest of all summer will be giyen an airing in the Kentucky Court of Appeals on October 1. The Cin-
cinati Post says:
Frankfort, Ky., sept. 21.—Attorney L. J. Crawford, representing Scott Jackson, and Conimoinvcaltli's Attorney Lockhart arrived this morning to be present at the calling of the Scott Jackson ease in the Court ot Appeals at 11 o'clock. Lockhart this morning signified his willingness to submit the ease on proof, but Crawford insisted on an argument of the case, which will probably consume two days. The attorneys appeared in the Court of Appeals room when the court convened ami after their recpiests bail been considered, the court named Oct. 1 a.- the day for final argument, on which the prisoner’s life depend-. Attorney Crawford, it is believed, will prepare an elaborate argument, in which be will review all the errors claimed to have been made in the lower court. Attorney Crawford stated to the court that be desired to file a brief. Comnioinveallh’s Aitorney Lockhart stated that this was a case he would like to Lave set for argument at an early date. Attorney Oeoernl Taylor remarked: “It is a case of considerable

11 Putnam’s finances are in sueli excellent shape as the democratic papers state why is the cmnty compelled to borrow money and why can’t it meet interest ciir.r'vs when due? Will the democratic papers explain this po ut to their constituents? If they do we w.il then propound some more questio's that they may answer il they car.. The deuiccrit.ic papers need look for no better news to tell the people than in giving a thorough explanation of Putnam’s fhia:u ,: a condition. There is sometbirg wrong surely. The hand bill says: “Every voter who owned real estate prior to 1873 and who lias been fortunale enough to retain ownership of real estate until now, knows that its value has decreased in that time from 50 to GO per cent.’ Yet on top of that bold declaration the hand bill upholds the action of the local county board in its upholding of values on poor Putnam land to such a figure that farmers are breaking up in endeavoring to pay their taxes. This the local papers do in order to make a low tax rate look enticing to the tax payer, whom the county- continually robs by high valuation, thus enabling the state to take $58,000 per year out of the county while the county
tered into the spirit of the affair in earnest and four of them made good talks ot about ten minutes
with them not to attend the meeting of Hon. A. C. Harr, at Bain-
bridge. Such action can not but! e,U ‘ h - The 8 P 0aker8 were W 3' aU meet with the hearty condemnation Janie8 ’ Henr y R,ck8 ’ Jo,in Town - of the better element of democracy. | 9, ‘ n,1 a,ul CUa8 ' Herrin S- Mr ' Tav ‘ Are the local democrats afraid to' 10 '' 1 a C ° lored Htu,ll!rit on 1,i8 wa - v to
have the masses of their party learn the truth? Hon. Addison C. Harris stands in the foremost ranks of Indiana’s attorneys. His argu merits are sound and. logical and are unanswerable. Democracy evidently fears to have their voiers hear him, or why should they go to such underhanded tricks o attempt to keep voters at home. Do they want to cover up the true history and purposes o" their pa: i v? Do they want to keep voiers in ignorance of the truth, just as they have kept the people of Putnam county in the dark as to the indebtedness against Putnam county in local affairs? The Putnam voters are entitled to know the truth, and democracy by its dark-lantern acts iu local affairs shows that it does not desire its people to hear republican logic. Democracy has no argument, but depends upon mere assertion. How many people in Putnam county knew that bonds were outstanding against the general fund of Putnam, which have been there for nearly ten years, drawing a handsome rate of interest. and the democratic county commissioners “don’t know” why such is the ease? How many Putnam people knew that the county commissioners did not know where and who held the county’s bonds until a republican commissioner was elected? How many Putnam democrats ever learned or ever will learn from local democratic papers that the county is right now confronted with a depleted treasury and hasn't money enough to pay its interest claims? How many times have democratic papers printed the fact that the state taxes taken from Putnam county are now double what they were in 1873, and which in 1895 are $11,089.93 higher
Bloomington made a telling speech in which he encouraged the local boys to tight earnestly for sound money and republican principles. In his talks Mr. Ricks thought the orators of the evening were better able to discuss the issues than some of the speakers the democrats
had placed on the stump.
Col. Jordan and Capt. Donnohue encouraged the hoys in their work and gave them hearty congratulatory words. The speakers for the next meeting will be Adam Edmonson and Charles Herring who will each make an half hour address. Five more men signed the roll Monday night making an even fifty of the McKinley Gold Bugs. The club will meet next Monday even-
ing at 7 :30 o'clock.

Mr. Farr has two children, but had the deep misfo’ - - tune of losing his wife by death about three months ago. He will | in all probability occupy the Locust Street pulpit next Sunday. Rev. Moore’s new appointment takes him to a part of the state with which he is thoroughly acquainted, his parents residing in Lawreneeburg.
