Removal !
The Sentinel Office has been moved ilto roomi one door enel of Makeev* •r’s New Hotel, where we will be pleased to jrreet our friends in future.
The Northern Republicans and the National Administration will|be Riven full credit for the result in Virginia, and be held responsible for what may flew from it.
Dr. Terrell, Democratic member elect to the Vitginla Legislature, is In his ninetieth year. He is said to possess the octivity of a man of sixty and an unclouded intellect.
In the Tax Office, Philadelphia, some collossai stealings have been recently unearthed among the clerks. It is thought that they will reach into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.
That which now most embarrasses the Stalwart President is bow to convict, and ut the same time shield from punishment, the Star Route thieves. No doubt his uccidency will conclude the interests of his party demand that they be not convicted.
Senator Stalwart Logan, on the first meeting, at his boarding bouse, with Guiteau. called the landlady aside and said: “I do not think he (Guiteau) is a proper person to have in your boarding houso. • * I thought he was kind of crazy, and she had better not have him in her boarding house.” if Guiteau should be acquitted, to such evidence, from such witnesses may it very properly be attributed.
Stalwart Logan is of tbe opinion that Guiteau is crazy* Expressed himself to that effect to the landlady with whom he boarded on the first appearance of Guiteau at her table.— No doubt Conk ling, Camerom Arthur and Grant coincide with him- The crasy act of Guiteau made Arthur Persident—it overthrew half breedism and placed the control of the Government in the hands of tho stalwarts. They Will not forget this. On the other hand, Blaine don’t consider him crazy. His chu ikling over Conkting wag brought to such a sudden stop by Guiteau that he will undoubtedly regard it as a pleasant episode in his life to witness the strangulation.
Indianapolis Sentinel: The farmers of Indiana are asking each other, as also themselves, in what way the advocates of protection propose to con fer benefits upon tbe agricultural interests of the State. As matters now stand, farmers are taxed 94 per cent* on the article of blankets. Ready made clothing is taxed 57 per cent.* hats 63 per eent., leather 35 per cent.’ plain cotton goods 41 per cent., earth en ware 41 per cent., horse shoe nails 59 per cent., pocket cutlery 50 per cent* agricultural implements 35 per cent., salt from 39 to 69aee zed t , su* gar 64 per cent., all descriptions of steel manufactures 45 per cent. The list' eould be Indefinitely extended, and in no single instance is there to be found tbe slightest evidence of regard tor tbe interests of the farmersIt is not surprising, therefore, that the farmers of Indiana are demund ng that the tariff shall be taken out of their pockets.” Aud when it is remombered, too, that where this duty shuts out imports, outs off competition, the whole j ncreased prices they pay go into the pookets of the already wealthy, arid not one oent into the revenues of the Government, it is not surprising tha 1 the demand lnoreases as the matter bscomes more generally understood.
Facts on the tariff were never more clearly statedjthan by Hon. 8. S. Cox, some years since, in Congress, when he used toe following language: "The farmer, starting for his work, has a shoe put on his horse with nails taxed 67 per cent., driven with a bam mer taxed 57 peroent.; he cuts a stick with a knife taxed 50 per cent.; he hitches his horse te. a plow taxed 60 per cent, with trace chains taxed 67 per cent. He returns to bis home at night and lays his weary limbs on a sheet taxed 68 per cent, and covers himself with a blanket that has paid a tax of 80 per. He rises in the morning, puts on acheap coat taxed 45 per cent, his flannel shirt is taxed 80 per cent, his shoes ate taxed 35per cent, and the hat on his head is taxed at 60 per cent. He opens a Bible that is taxed 35 per cent; he kneels to his God on a carpet taxed 100 per cent; the cheap plates from which he eats his meals pay a tax of 40 per oent; his cup of coffee is sweetened with sugar taxed 75 per cent, and the salt with which he seasons hie food is taxed 60 per sent”
The manufacturing monopolist reap almost the sole benefit of high tariff duties. They place their goods on the market at the highest figures the tariff will admit of and shut out competition. They secure big profits, but the employees receive no better compensation. Protection, prohibition imports shut out, no competition what is the result? Big profits for the favored few, exorbitant prices for the consumers, no revenue for the government, consequently the burden of direct taxation must be fastened upon the toiling masses in addition to the high cost of living. Consumers pay the bill, this will not be dis* puted. Farmers, mechanics, laborers* artisans comprise the vast body of consumers. They pay the tribute, and the comparatively few wealthy manufacturers scattered hers and there over the land—receive it Their coffers enlarge and expand, while those of the consumers grow lean and con* ttwtod.
I #Pjucßn>ian|A*THra.--'Previous to the ■hooting of Garfield Mr. Arthur was. In many respeets, an untried man; and his assumption of the vast powers and responsibilities, of the presidency was an event naturally contemplated with solicitude; but from the first hour of Garfield’s long drawn agony, every act, and word of Arthur’s has been watched with jealous interest. Vet in no respect has he failed to show himself qualified to discharge the duties of his high position with honor to himself, and advantage to tbe nation.
Like his lamented predecessor, we believe he will be preridenr or the nation, not of a party; and leader of a party, not oi a faction. —Rensselaer Republican, “Half-breed editors are praising President Arthur just as though they had always done so. The twinkling of an eye affords ample time for those fellows to change front."—Montieello Herald. Stalwart. He is the same identical Arthur removed from tbe Custom House by Hayes and Sherman for corrupt and dishonest practices.
Vennor’s Deoember Predictions.
December, 1881.—1,2,3. Storms oxindications of storms in Atlantic, and cold, weather at Nfw York, Boston and other seaborn! cities; snowfalls in the Middle and No.(hern States and Canada; very cold w Gather West. Probably a brief mild term. 7to 11. Generally very cold weather, probably commencing and ending witn snowfalls in northern, middle and western seetions, and bleak and stormy weather south. 13 and 14. Probably milder in all sections, with rains South and West to a limited extent. 16 to 20. Very cold and blast ype riod, with snowfalls where these were experienced in 1876 and 1880, the 19th and 20tb probably being tbe day most marked in tnis respect: intense cold in Canada and New England States. 25. Christmas has a cold and stor my period both bt fore and after it, but the day itself may just escape. 26 to 31. After the 26*h I see nothing but cold, snow and bluster to the close of the year for Canada and much of the United State 3, West aud South, the menth probably resembling in many resp cts, the Decembers of 18 6 and 18fc0. As to the intensity or degree of these snow.alls, I have no very definite Indications, but i am strongly impressed in the direction of low temperatures forthe forepart of tbe approaching winter season. Bu: January will have its “thaw” this time, and trobably a very mark ed one.
Union Skraps.
Roads rather rough. Weather pleasant to-day. Health generally good. Quite a snow last evening. Mr. Michael Schultz is erecting a new barn. Nick Guss ht s been appointed “section boss” on railroad. The Teachers’ Institute was organized with Wm. Cooper as President, and Jennie Gant as Secretary. James Pierce and Austin Lakin re port the toads between Jasper City and Oaktown as being rather rough. Our friend Charles, son of B. WHarrington, has a hankering for Jasper City. What’s the attraction, Charlie? ' Mr. Levi Hodge is erecting some new buildings on his farm at present. Levi is a first-rate farmer, and, by the way, a good Democrat. The Jasper City Literary and Debating Society elected the followng officers at the last meeting; President. David W. Shields; Vice Pres’t, C.C. Cooper; Secretary, Jennie Gant; Treasurer, Christena Pettee. County Superintendent D. B. Now els visited the schools of Union this week. Owing to bad roads he “took it a foot,” not however until he had purchased a huge pair of rubber boots, about No. , well we’il not continue the subject at present. GRAPE-ISLAND. Nov. 26.1881.
But 400 of the biblically historical oedars of Lebanon are left. The Boston' Globe says that gamblers are betting tha. Guiteau wili not be hanged. When two women with new hats on pass each other on the street there is a pair of back stares built immediately. Bob Ingersoll is about to prove there is no hell for the star route swindlers. Classically speaking, Bad Bob thinks “Sic itur ad astra.” “Amerioa,” says an Englishman, “is a country where a man’s statement is not worth two cents unless backed up with an offer to bet you ten dollars.” The Karo or Polit.cs We Have.— The rebellion continues to be put down, and the oppressed slave to be emancipated.—Springfield Republican. When the Ohioago man saw Niagara he shed tears. “Durn it,” he said; I ain’t liar enough to describe it and make it out bigger than it is. “I’m floored.” - “Whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn the other to him also,” is a biblical expression. In modern parlance it is termed “a reversi ble cuff” Rtf a man is quiok tempered you had tier go to the other side of the road until the paroxysm is over- if he is sullen go to the other side of the street and stay there,—New York Herald. A sarcastic Georgia editor, in noticing a fair which recently came off in Macon,says: “One of our cotemporaries took a very valuable premium but a meddlesome official put it right book where he took It from.” Damascus is the oldest city in the world, and the street called Straight, in which it is said Saul prayed, still runs through the city, and the yearly caravans come and go to the place just as they did one thousand years ago. The North American Review, which has heretofore boine the imprint of D. Appleton & Go., will do so no more, the Appletons objecting—so it is said —to the publication of Col It. G. Ingersoll’a article, which appealed in the last number. “Twelve pence make one shilling,” ■aid the schoolmaster, “Now go on sir! Twenty shillings make one—what?” “They make one mighty glad these hard times.” replied the boy* and the teacher, who hadn’t received’ his last month’s salary, concluded that the boy was about right
lt is rumored . that “Me too” Platt will succeed Robertson as collector of the port of New York. Verily! Robertson’s was a brief triumph, and Platt may well exclaim. “Now is‘the winter of my discontent made glorious summer by the son of New York. “Father, did you ever'have another wife besides mother?” “No, my boy, whar possesstirr you to ask such a question?” “Because I saw in the old family Bible where you married Anno Domini in 1835, and that isn’t mother, for he*r name was Sally Smith.”
It may be safely concluded that Grant has lost his -rip on the Presidential nomination. The Indianapolis Journal. a fi.nite.iii “Stalwart of tho Stalwarts” has hoisted the name of Chester A.- Arthur for a second terra. Poor Grant will have to make another trip around the world and have his fi tends get up another boom for him while he is gone.
William Brown, a colored man, of Richmond, Yu.,, is mourning for his daughter, Mary Saunders, who ran away from home a few days ago. He inserted an advertisement in a Richmond. newspaper offering $5 reward (qr the -apprehension, of the girl, and gave this remarkable description of the run away: “The girl is of a dark ginger-bread cplor, about 12 years old, with a bushy head of hair, and full eye brows.” The Presidential bulletins made oue think of the sailot whose ship-mate-was knifed in a row on shore.— They went to the hospital next day to see how their messmate was getting along. Ben Bobstay went in to ask about him, receh ep a true statement of his case from the surgeon, and came out with a solemn face. ‘Good Lord, mates,” ha.said, “Jack’ a dead man. The Latin part of his bowels is all cut to thunder.”
Miss Benson feared that Randall* who was wooing her at Mount Vernon. Ohio, already had a wife. She waited until he made a formal proposal of mani a go, and then applied to u justice for his arrest on a charge of bigamy Being told that tbecrime of bigamy required a double marriage, she kept her secret, let the engagement result in a wedding, and then triumi.haq.tly sent him to jail immediately after the cetemony. The St. Louis Republican remarks: “If the Republicans think they can make anything by manufacturing a state out of Dakota territory, we beg to remind them that they haven’t got that sort of a game all in their own .hands. Democratic Texas has the sovereign and reserved right to make of itself five states without asking congressional consent, and can easily conterbalance any Republican gain by making a state out of Dakota.”
Henry Clark, of Praltsburg, New York, married against his father’s wishes and was shown the door. He thereupon leased thirty acres of good land, which he put in potatoes, doing all his work himself. The thirty acres, have yielded him four thousand bushels, eight hundred bushels of which he sold for SBOO, and the remainder of the crop bringing him 80 cents per bushel, or a total sura of $2,360,. with a net profit, after ded.uc.ting ail ex penses, of s2.7oo—more than his father has made in two seasons off. four times the amount of ground cultivated.
Among the many needed reforms, the first, according to the New York S' n, is to “abolish the internal revenue establishment. Scud the collect* ors, inspectors, detectives, clerks, and all other servants of the same back to private life and to the usefulness of productive industry. Abolish all in ternal revenue taxatiou. It was imposed in order to carry on the civil war. That mighty struggle was finished nearly seventeen years ago. Tho vast debt which it created is in a great measure paid off. Now is the right time to repeal all laws imposing internal revenue taxes!”
Bob Toombs is as notorious for his hospitality as for being one of the most rabid of the unreconstructed rebels. Not long since it was oreposed to build a hotel in Washington, Ga., where he lives, and a committee called upon him for a suneeription.— “What the hell do you want of a hotel in Washington?” he cried. “Eyery respectable person who comes to town puis up with Bob Toombs and is welcome, and every disrespectable person leaves town because he oan not put up anywhere.” Such being the ease the project was abandoned.— Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution.
The following is said to have been uttered by Readjuster Mabone, of Virginia, the man who carries Presidin' Arthur and the Republican party in his breeches pockets: “As to the full and final payment or liquidation of the present enormous National debt, he that knows ..the American people and utter deficiency in the high>,qualities of truth and integ rity knows that such an expectation is but an idiot’s dream.. For ourselves, wo shall rejoice when the crash comes* It is a debt contracted in the prosecution of an infamous and Hinneees sary war. And Repuplicans endorsed the sentiments and coalesced with him.
The Wabash Courier poes for the great Republican financier, John Sherman, of Obio, in this wise: “John Snerman may be a vertable statesman, but it is certainly a fact that he cannot distinguish between three hundred pounds of candles and a hogshead of lemonade. At .least the expense of the Treasury Department while Sherman was on deck, shows that a hogshead of lemonade was paid for as tnree hundred pounds of candles. It’d a wonder that a man as innocent as John Sherman isn’t picked up and bled every day by prize package fiends and lightning rod peddlers. Yet we have never heard of John biting at either of the above swindles.”
Smart Lawyer and Cute Witness.--A young lawyer of the city of Providence tells a story about himself which is good enough to go on record; He was trying a “riim case” at Bristol not long ago, when a,witness was put on the stand to'testify to the reputation of the place in question. This witness, a stage driver, in .answer to a querry as to the reputation of the place, replied “A rum shorn? The lawyer inquired, "You say it has the reputation oi being a rum shop?”— “Yes,sir.” “Who di(Lyou everhe*F say it was a rum shop?'” The witnegfc did not recollect of any one hear say so. “What,” said the fewyer,: you have sworn this place Ims the of being a rum shop and yet you can’t tell of any one ’irou heard say so ?” The witness was Staggered for a moment—in the words of the lawyer, “I had him”-and the lawyer was feeling triumphant, when the witness gathered himseif together, and quietly remarked, addressing the lawyer “Well, you havp the reputation of being a very smart lawyer, but I never heard any one say so.” Providence Journal. -

1881. 1881. The Indiana WEEKLY SENTINEL Has been enlarged and improved until it is now the Largest and the Very Best paper published in the West. The Weekly Sentinel is in all regards a superior eight page 56 column paper. The merits of the Sentinel as a general newspaper are so well known, that commeudation of it is supeifluous. We will add, however, that the management has arranged and fully determined that no paper' shall furnish so great practical to its patrons for the money. In its news, its editorials, its literary, and miscellany—in a word, in its general reading—it ghail not be surpassed by any paper circulated in the State. It will be particularly adaptod to the family circle. No reading, thinking man in the State can afford to do without the Weekly Sentinel at the small cost at which it is furnished. The Sentinel will continue to be the same earnest advocate of true American Democracy in the future that it has been in the past; indeed, it proposes to battle more vigorously than ever agaiust the party of centialization aud corruption.— Vast monopolies own and control the Republican party, and in the future, as in the past, it can not do otherwise than foster class legislation, thereby trampling upon the interests of the producing masses. The motto of the Sentinei is, “Hold fast to the Democratic faith and battle on,” and as certainly as God reigns vieory will ultimately be with the peopleThe Republican party can not survive its crimes. Its monumental iniquities cast their shadows athwart the land . Just men of ah political opinions are horrified at i:s colossal crimes Its ambition is for plunder and imperial power. Its downward progress, from the days when Grant’s thieves organized the Whisky Ring to raise a corruption fund,4o Guiteau’s tragedy, has been marked by infamy at every step. From the days when John Sherman barteied Federal offices for perjuries to seat Hayes, crimes have followed each other in rapid succession. The flood-tide of thievery has flowed grandly. There have been Star Route thieves. Treasury thieves, Navy Department thieves, War Department thieves, and Signal Service thieves, and Indiana has had Dorsey, the notorious Star Route thief, and Secretary of the Republican N in the State, organising crime to carry the State against the will of the people. The Sentinel will invite the people of Indiana to contemplate these Republican methods to obtain and maintain power. It will keep its readers informed with regard (o Republican fights for spoils, the mutual denunciations of its factions, their criminations and recriminations, their mutual hates whioh culminated m the assassination of the President, thereby capping the climax of horrors and completing the work of infamy, With this record of crime, the Republican party asks for a new lease of power, and it will be the high ambition of the Sentinel to defeat its purposes and emancipate the country from its debauching grasp- „ Tub Sentinel, in addition to its superiority, is, moreover, an Indiana paper, devoted to and specially represents Indiana’s interests, political and otherwise, as no foreign paper can or will do, and ought, therefore to have preference over the D&pers of other States, and we ask Democrats to bear this ia mind, and select Your Own State Paper when you ctome to take subscriptions aud make up clubs.
