“This action gave a genteel contemporary an opportunity to indulge in customary compliments.” —Message. And you might have added “appropriately and properly” indulged. Considering your general policy and the motives which impel you, we take nothing back. Our Simon has a “personal relief bill”—a claim for 8800 00 or 81000 pending in the Legislature. It will be to the interest of the people that Col. Patton be delegated to de ermine, for this district, upon its merits. This is the “personal relief bill” referred to 1 y our beloved and high-toned neighbor in the Message of May 26th. "“How different from this is I resident Cleveland’s treatment of the poor, needy, maimed and enfeebled but equally meritorious soldiers who apply for pensions.” —Message man, Sept. 15th. “President Cleveland is not vetoing the private pension bills to the extent that some of tne Republican newspapers represent.— Of 655 private pension bills which he has xamined, 90 have been vetoed and 565 approved. Nothing is to be gained by lying for partisan advantage.—Message man, July 14. Take your medicine, Horace.

“President Cleveland’s postmasters at Fowler and Goodland are engaged in the laudable occupation of publ.shing the war record of the gallant Col. Patton of Remington; other Democratic newspapers of the senatorial district are doing the same commendable thing. Col. Patton is wealthy enough to buy their friendship.’’ So discourseth Horace E. James, Fraud Hayes’ ex-consul to Turk island, in the Message this week. Considering the source, the insinuations produced a general smil \

Referring to the result of the recent election in Maine, the Indian apol : s News, Republican, says: “A plurality of seven thousand or so is hardly worth the brag when there never was anv reasonable probability of anything else.” Speaking of the action of the Democratic Senatorial Conventio n Robinson’s lover, Horace, says: “’This course leaves the honest and candid Democratic voter untrammeled to cast his ballot as he thinks proper for men.” Yes, exactly; and ‘the honest and candid Democratic voter untrammeled” and unpurchased, as well as a great many voters of the same honesty and candor, but of other party names — ‘Do not yearn for a candidate whose desk is tilled with prepared “changes and additions to the statute laws of the State,” per: -nal relief bills, and the like.”—( See James’ reference to Thompson in Message of May 26th. Therefore they prefer Dr. Patton, and will vote for him, in spite of the mag etic po ver and “infioonce” of our distinguished exconsul to Turk Island, who owes his preferment to a fraudulent execute ve. If act ons speak louder than words, the candi .acy of Dr. H. D. Hattery for Congress is deserving of the consideration of all workingmen. His record shows him to have been always the friend of the worthy laborer, and when his nomination was first announced in Logansport, no class of citizens showed more good cheer than the men who had been employed on public works for the city during his three terms in the council. It is easy for candidates to make pretense for favoring the wage workers, I ut in the case ot Dr. Hattery he can point to his record as a sufficient guarantee of the sincerity of his claim to be willing to do all in his power to raise the standard of wages and rights of workingmen.

Delphi Times: ‘President Cleveland’s vetoing of pensions is to be one of the t ;ings that Congressman Owen will talk about this tall, but not ‘seriously.’ The President approved seven pensions in every eight. One of the bills vetoed provided for a pension to a man that was dead; one vetoed » rovided for a pension that had been already granted by the pension bureau.— These are fair specimens of bills vetoed.” President Clevel nd is entitled to credit and deserves the support of the pe jple for the courage he has displayed in the performance of what he conceived to be his duty. He knew full well that his acts and motives would be misconstrued and misrepresented by candidates of the opposition, and cost him the support of thousands interested in the vetoed bills, ye never faltered. Let the vultures croak.

What it Was Done For.—lt is generally understood that the Journal’s attack on Dr. Hattery this morning was made for the purpose of inducing the Prohibitionists to vote for Mr. Owen. Here at home Dr. Hattery is known as a man of temperate habits. H is popular here, however, because he is opposed to laws that restrict the liberties of the people The attack made upon him was not' in our judgment the best move the Republican manager could make It is generally understood that Mr. Owen will receive the vote of the Prohibitionists and the attack made upon Dr. Hattery will only stimulate the opposition to greater exertion. Mr. Owen will thankfully receive the vote of the Prohibitionists of the district but he does not want that party to nominate him for fear such a movement would drive from his support hundreds of anti-prohibition Republicans. The attack made upon Dr. Hattery is the first intimation that the Republicans are fearful of Owen’s defeat. They are getting anxious for the “truly good” to rusn to the rescue.—Logansport Pharos.
