At a Democratic township convention held a few days *-ince in Valparaiso,Porter eounty. Daniel Webster received the nomination for assessor by a unanimous vote. Radical legislation in the interest of the money power, seeks to make bonds, purchased with greenbacks, payable in gold. Radical legislation, by fraud, demonetized and depreciated silver. Jno. Shermun, when before the Henalo Fiuuncu Cummit’ee, in response t > a question asket him by Mr. Voor. iices, replied that he had been mistaken in his views in reference to the remonetization of silver. Tho Winatnuc Democrat auys there is a strong probability that the Democrats will carry the Tenth Congressional District tins year, no matter who the Republicans may nominate. That’s cold comfort to Major Calkins. The Democratic Central Committee for the Tenth Congressional District of Indiana is composed of the following named gentlemen: T. E. Howard, Bt. Joseph oouuly; W, Sheeneiuan, La Porte; H. Biunamou, Porter; Nicholas Scherer, Lake; Henry Barkley, Jasper; (J. W. Wickersham, Pulaski; William Eluiendorf, Staik; James T. Saunderson, Newton; D. D. Dale, Whiter C. It. Pallord, Carroll. T. E. Howard, of South Bond, is chairman of this committee. A radical exchange says: "A democratic supreme court, by Its decision in the case of Anderson vindicates the title of Hayes to the Presidential ofllee.” We suppose that Is tho extent of tho keen comprehension of the author of the above extract. All others know, however, that Anderson escaped on a technicality. The orriginal payers were the ones he forged, not the copies upon which he was committed. “ Upon such slender thread” a radical will attempt to vindicate the honesty of his party. Secretary John Sherman, in his recent interview with the House coinage committee, said: “We have been very much disappointed in regard to live result of measures affecting our ooiuage and our legal tender. Ho would be a wise man indeed who would undertake to predict the result of any partieulat measure. I have this option, which I,' can express strongly, that under the iaw as it now stands we can maintain ilie silver dollar at par with tho best mouey afloat, either gold or currency, and can issue fifty, sixty, or perhaps 0110 hundred millions of those silver dollars, giving great relie! to the people.” The .■diver advocates, then, are no longer repudia’.ots, but honest men who desire to pay their debts in honest money.
