Hon. C- A. Windle, of Chicago, 1 met all expectations in his address at the court room last evening. He is an orator whose beautiful word . painting is rich in tone and conoepI tion, and during the two hours he I held the large and appreciative ’ audience spell -found and enraptured by his eloquence and logic. He is a hard hitter and the blows fell thick and fast, leaving not a j fragment for the g. o. p. to bolster ,' up a lost cause. The administration organs are j calling down maledictions upon the I head of ex-senator Towne for declaring that Abraham Lincoln, were he | alive today, would be a democrat. ; Ex-Senator Towne, of course, nas no means of knowing what Lincoln would be were.he alive today, but a study of Lincoln's life and public speches and writings affords strong evioenoe that he would not be a republican as the republican party is today made up. The Commoner deties any adinistration organ or leader to find anywhere in Lincoln’s utterances one word that, can be construed in an argument- in favor of the republican party’s Philippine policy. It challenges any republican leader or organ to find anywhere in Lincoln's utterances, one word that can be construed into a n argument in favor of the republican party's attitude towards the trusts and monopolies. In short, the Commoner challenges any republican organ to quote Abraham Lincoln at length upon any subject. —Colonel Bryan. M. E. CHURCH.

JOSEPH H. SHEA. Joseph H. Shea, Democratic candidate for attorney general, is one of the well-known lawyers of Indiana, and will bring to the administration of that office a conspicuous ability Ha is a native of Scott county, where he received his education in the common schools, afterward graduating at the State University. For ten 'Bk JOSKCH H. SHEA. years he practiced his profession in Scottsburg and then removed to Seymour, where he now resides and where he has taken rank as a leading lawyer of southern Indiana, there being little litigation of importance in which his services are not sought. Mr. Shea has always been prominent in the Democratic politics of the state. He was prosecuting attorney of Scott. Clark and Jennings counties for two terms and served in the state senate during the terms of '97 and '99. For the last twelve years he has been a director of the Indiana University, in which institution he has taken a great interest. A REPUBLICAN OPINION. Tn a speech at Boston in January, 190.1. Governor Cummings of lowa said: “In my opinion some of the schedules of the law of 1897 are too high, and during the period of overwhelming demand, which we have witnessed in the last three or four years, our home producers have been able to exact more than a fair price for what they have sold. I recognize the difficulties of preparing tariff schedules so that they will answer with accuracy the abstract test, and we may not look for absolute perfection, yet the disparity is so great in some things that I have believed, and still believe, that, without regard to reciprocal treaties, there should and must be a revision of these schedules." — Tom Gallogly is attending to insurance business at Geneva to day
