C. A. EDMONDS.

Iba W. Yeoman, Secretary. The Silver Bill has been passed over Haves’veto!

At the request of a number of our readers who desire au extra copy of the Democratic platform we republish it to-day.

The Monticello Herald says that Gov. Morton at one time desired Dem ocratic Senators to point out one single good act emanating from that par ty in thirty years, and not one responded. Very well, what will you do about it? It was a foolish question and they answered a fool according to his folly—with siient pity and convc mp t.

HOW THEY HOWL!

Rensselaer Union. Will You "W oik Into My Parlor? Capt. Edmonds and Ira W. Yeoman •having arrived at the conclusion that anybody is good enough to vo.e the democratic ticket issue the following manifest: Than follows the call for a County Convention, decided upon and directed by a meeting of citizans at which Capt. Eemonds was chairman and Ira W. Yeoman secretary. A few years ago when Mn James was badly afflicted with “clerkship on the bruin” be was very willing, aye, anxious, to enter any parlor which presented a prospect of success, He then indorsed and advocated the financial views held by those who composed the ineetingthatissued the “mat.ifesto” he speaks of. The clerkship proved ;* • will-o the-wisp* to him, and soon he ceased to follow, and like the sow returned to his wallow. Those who unite and act with the Convention tomorrow will do so from different motives than those which actuated Bro. James. The Monticello Herald concludes an article in its issue of this week with the following excruciating howl: “We opine there are very few greenback men who will be taken tu by this last exceedingly tnin profession emanating from Indiana Democracy.— Don’t go to the Democratic party for a friend to the greenback,” etc., etc. Oh, no! Th* Herald would advise you to act with the party which has controlled the legislation < f the country for the past sixteen years and is and must be held responsible for the distress that now prevails throughout the land. It would have you give your support to the party whose every act has been in the interest of shylocks, and to your hurt. It would have the independent citizen uphold the hands of those who break solemn contracts in the interest of the money changers, and made payable in coin bonds which of right should be paid in currency—those who have debased and depreciated silver, constitutional coin - those who contract the currency and give nothing to circulate in its stead. You have asked for bread tUKi they gave you a stone! In view of the steady withdrawal of the greenback currency, and no other circulation provided for, the day designated by radical legislation for r - sumption drawing nigh, it will be an act of wisdom on the part of those who agree with the Democracy in financial affairs to make uo hr It now time is too short! A united and Vigorous effort will insure succw-s. Mr. Voornees, in his speech, in all honesty an I candor said: “I was among those who doubted our right to issue It, (the greenback,) but experience has shown it the best money, all things considered, that ever circulated on American soil.” In this view—with a vast public debt of billions to be paid, and a decided insufficiency of the precious metals—the Democracy, and all Independent citizens, concur. Let those whose present self-inter-est lead them to oppose the interests of the many to the oeuefit of rhe few, snoeringly and jestingly taunt the independent with" Walk into my parlor.” It will be of no avail.

“The American laborer must make up his mind henceforth not be sn much better off than the European laborer. Men must be content to work for low wages. • • * In this way the workingman will be nearer to that station in life to which it has pleased God tp ca}l him.”—Shylpck Organ,

Brief Sketches the Nominees.

HOM. JOHN G. SHANKLIN. Mr. John G. Shanklin is a native of Indiana, having been born in Evansville. His father, the lute John Shanklin. Esq., was a native us Donegal county, Ireland, and settled in Evansville about 55 years ago. He was engaged in active and successful business for a half century, and left a large landed estate as the fruits of an bankable career. Mr. John G. Shanklin is one of a family of five cbildred, but hree ot whom, he, his brother and a sister, who is the wife of John M. Harn, associate justice of the supreme court cf the United States, are now iving. After a preparatory coure. in the public schools of Evansville Mr. ihanklin entered Kenyon coll lege in 1859, graduating in 1862. On returning home he began the practice of law, and in 1863 was appointed prosecuting attorney of the First judicial district, which position he held for 18 months. He continued the practice of his profession until 1866, when, his health being somewhat impaired, he went abroad, and after a few months travel on the continent, he entered the law department of Berlin univer »ity, graduated in 1868, After a stay of three and a half years, the greater part of which was spent in Germany, he returned home and joined uis brother George W. Shanklin in the publication of the Evansville Daily Courier, of which paper he is now the editor. In 870, when there was a republican majority in Vanderburgh county of nearly one thousand, he accepted the nomination for representative in the Legislaturc/inanimously tendered him, and |led his ticket by two hundred votes against Hod. William Heilman, a distinguished German citizen of Evansville, and a popular republican in southern Indiana. Since then he has gtven his whole attention to the editorial department of the Courier, a piper <.f la ge influence in that portion of the blate. HON. MAHLON DICKSON MANBON. Gen. Manson was born at Piqua, Ohio, February 20, 1820, which made aim 58 years of age on the day of his n >m:nation for auditor of s ate. He his been in the sta eof Indiana for ■l6 years, during aL of which time he bus lived in Montgomery county. By profession he is a druggist. He was captain of company I, Fifth Indiana, in tl e Mexican war, and was at the city of Mexico with General Winfield Scott. He was a member of the Indiana legislature in 1851-2. He was afterward-i a private, then captan, major and colonel of the Teuth Indiana infantry in the rebellion, and served with such distinction that he was appointed colonel of the regiment. He was with Gen. George B McClellan in West Virginia, and was appointed brigadier general by Abraham Lincoln in 1862. He was wounded three times while in the service of his country, and was a member of the Twentythird army corps, during the campaign before Knoxville, Tennessee. He was nominated as the democratic candidate for secretary of state by acclamation in 1866, and for congress in 1868, against Godlove S. Orth, of LaFayette. In the latter race he was only beaten by about 400 votes In a district which was republican by 2,000 majority. He was a candidate in 1870, and was elected by 400 majority, hie opponent being General Lew Wallace. He was defeated for the same office by Judge Cason, of Boon county, by 197 votes in 1872 He has been a member of the democratic state committee for about four years, during three years of which time he has been chairman, and he has conducted the campaign in such a manner as to stamp him as the best political manager in the state. He has always been a democrat, and is a gentleman of firm integrity of principle, and will make a gpcJd candidate. HON. WILLIAM FLEMING. William Fleming, the nominee for treasurer of state, is 49 years of age. He was born in Ireland, and has resided in Allen county for more that 30 years, during the greater part of which time Le has been the head and front of the democratic party, not only in that county, but in his district and section of the state. He is a man of high standing and undoubted integrity, and will furnish a large part of the brains of the ticket. For executive ability, capacity for organization and political power there is not probably his superior in the state of Indiana. He will be perceptibly felt in the campaign. His district and his section of the state came to the city solid in his favor. The delegation of workers in his behalf were men of standing, discretion, judgment, and influence, and were warmly enlisted in his behalf. Mr. Fleming has served two terms as sheriff and two terms as clerk of his county, having been elected the last time in 1866. since which time he has not been a candidate for office. His record is without spot or blemish. He commenced life as a stone-cutter, and by industry, economy and the ex - ersise of sound judgment has massed a hahdsome competency. He is in full accord with the sentiments of the people upon the important Questions that will be presente 1 in the coming campaign, and especially upon the financial question. His means are invested entirely in large manufacturing interest and in real estate in Fort Wayne. In the fall of 1875 he assumed control of the Fort Wayne Sentinel, which had been prior to that time an intensely hard money organ. From the time he took charge of the paper its policy was changed, and it has continuously since advocated the repeal of the resumption not, and has favored the remonetization ot silver since that question has been raised. The feeling is quite general among the democracy that the nomination of Mr. Fleming will add great , strength to the ticket, and aid matei rially in securing the next legislature, and thereby insure the redistriction of the state and the election of a United States senator. His nomination gives general satisfaction, and his friends assert that he will carr his own county by at least 4,500 majority, since he commands universal respect even among the republicans, notwithstanding the fact that he has always taught them with all his might. His nomination is a deserved recognition of his servk es to his party, of the high democaatlo standing of his county, and of his peculiar fltness for the office. HON. THOMAS W. WOOLLEN. Judge Woollen, the nominee for attorney general, is a resident of Franklin, in Johnson county. He was born in Dorohester county Maryland, tn 1830, and emigrated to Indiana in 1848. He located at Madison, a city which has probably produced more prominent men tnun any othere in the state. His first employment was a deputy clerk of the Jefferson circuit court. Sunsequently he was deputy treasurer of his county, and had the entire control of the office for two years. In 1854 he was nominated by his party for treasurer of the county but was swept down by the know nothing avalanche of that year. After his defeat for treasurer Judge Woollen studied law. and in 1856 removed to Vej-pon, in Jeu a Ings county, and

Chairman.

commenced the practice of bis profession. He remained at Vernon but a short time, when he removed to Franklin, and with the Hon. J. D. New as a partner opened a law office there. In 1860 the democracy nominated him for circuit judge of the circuit composed ot Johnson, Marion and Hendricks counties, but he was defeated by General Coburn, of this city. In 1862 he was elected to the legislature from Johnson. He was made chairman of the committee on benevolent institutions, and occupied a leading position in the legislature of that eventful session. Subsequently he was elected common pleas judge of bis district, but after serving as such for some tow years he resigned the office and resumed the practice of the law. In 1872 he was again elected to the legislature from Johnson, and made second on the judiciary committee his party being io the majority at that session of the legislature, since 1872 he has occupied no public position, having devoted his time entirely to the practice of his profession. Judge Woollen is of commanding personal appearance. He is over six feet high and weighs some 225 pounds. He is affable in manner, and his character, both private and public, is without a stalo. He is an able lawyer, and it elected, as no doubt he will be, will reflect honor upon his office. He is a brother of Mr. W. W. Woollen, of this city. PROFESSOR JAMEB H. SMART. Professor J. H. Smart, of Allen county, the nominee for superintendent of public instruction, has served for two terms with marked ability, Mr. Smart came here 17 years ago, and was educated in the East. He came West, locating in Toledo, and then moved to Fort Wayne, where he has since resided, excepting during the last four years. The candidate for superintendent of public instruction is a good one, and will tend to fnsure the success of the ticket. He has never had much opposition, and as the office is one in which politics should not be allowed to exert an influence no better choice could have been made. Mr. Smart, though a lifelong democrat, has never allowed his politics to interfere with his duties. A better nomination could not have been made.

Dr. A. H. Writ, dentist, is holding forth in Harding’s drugstore. Mr. Scott Hardy, oi Monticello, concluded to postpone any effort to secure a music class in this place until vacation of the public schools, as he has no desire to coine in conflict with rules established by the school board.

THE NEW Fall tinier STOCK OF DRY-MDDS Just Opened by LB, CONSISTS OF StapieArticles that are in demand and that oiviliaed people must use, whether the times be flush or dull, business is at ebb or flow, or money is plentiiul or scarce. No attempt was made to secure frivolous novelties ia the selection of my Stock of Goods FOR THE Fall and Winter trade of 1877 in Jasper county, but an eye was trained to the choosing of articles whose DURABILITY and PRICE would recommend them to a community that is anxious to adapt themselves to the circumstances which now surround everybody in the United States. But this did not prevent the purchase of a stock that will compare favorably in point of beauty with anything to be found in this market, while of the fabrics must necessarily recommend them in an especial manner to people of judgment, prudence and economizing desires. No special enumeration of the articles comprising this new stock is deemed necessary from the fact that I deal iu all articles usually found in collections of General Merchandise, in inland towns, but it may be well enough to say that Best Dress Goods, Best Readv-Made Clothing Boots, Shoes, Hats, Caps, Standard Groceries, Etc., are kept in addition to the assortment es dress fabrics and other dry goods.
