It was not the man from Maine! But the “iceberg” of Indiana. Harrison—the grandson of his grandfather—and Morton compose the ticket to be demolished by that of Cleveland and Thurman. Republican platform-free tobacco, free whisky; high-priced wool, high-priced clothing and blankets, high-priced lumber for homes, high-priced salt, coal, and necessaries of life generally. As claimed by the Democratis press, Blaine was not sincere in his Florence and Paris letters.— John Sherman would not get out of the way at his bidding, and now denounces his perfidy in unmistaken tones.

A gentleman from the north part of the county the other day remarked to us: “Mac., The Democratic county convention made >o mistake when it placed Daniel H. Turner in nomination for Com missioner from the Ist district. He is capable, he is honest, and, besides, he is popular where best Known.” The same can be said of every candidate on the Democratic ticket, from president down. The ‘Democrat’ has a good word to say this week for our Democratic candidate tor sheriff, John (J. Chilcote. But what can that office as now constituted, do for him?— There is the ostensible editor, Bro. Bickels, will have no vote; Bro. Jarnos, the publisher, isaHa.rimuma republican, and Ed. Bass,

an employe, is also a rej üblican. — There is no substantial aid. in this view of the case, to be expected from that quarter. The nomination of Harrison and Morton acted like a chill upon the republicans in this locality. — ard Armstrong procured the services of the small boys to get up a bonfire, while they got the powder and anvil together and fired off a few salutes. Little Foraker, of Ohio, in the late republican convention at Chicago. sought to play Garfield in 1880. Like him, a pledged Sherman man, he was untiring in his efforts to attract the presidential iightning to himself.

Goodland Herald :Bro. McEwen, of the Rensselaer Sentinel, does not beat about the bush when he wants to “set down en” the new Democratic newspaper firm at that place. He seems to think that the prospective proprietors are not of the old moss-back line, but anything for policy. That being the case Bro. McEwen should receive the more hearty support from the Demo-racy of Jasper county, for they certainly have never had a man to hew to the line more closely than he. We don’t ‘seem to think’ —we know that prior to 1874 James was an uncompromising and bitter republican. In 1874 he opposed that party, whether from ‘policy’ or ‘for revenue’ we leave for those who know, to say. In 1876 lie returned to the republican wallow. What ‘policy,’ ‘conviction’ or ‘revenue’ might h .ve induced him to do in 1878, had we not become established here, we are not prepared to stat-. In 1879 he was made the recipient of part of the plunder that had come into the possession of Fraud Hayes by virtue of the presidential stc-al. He was active and zealous in his efforts for that partyjduring his occupancy of that office. But so bitterly did he deplore the success of the Democracy in 1884, that he could not conceal his hatred, and on the day following the ‘jubilee’ held on the triumph of Mr. Cleveland, he gave vent to his malignant feelings in ihe following false reference to the proceedings on his bulletin board:

“The vandalism committed last night are the legitimate, organized, deliberate insults of Democracy for Reform.” “In the interest of Reform the Democracy of Jasper County deliberately, wantonly insult every soldier who lost a leg or arm, or who was wounded in the line of duty in defence of the Union.” ■ In 1886, when the campaign opened, he stated the “Message” in the interest of the republican party. It was not received with the favor he desired, and on Oct. 6. 1886, in an article nearly eight columns in lenghth, he cited his chairmanship of the republican congressional and county committees, his membership of the state central committee, and his appointment to Turk Island and* the postoffice as indorsements of his republicanism. Failing in this he ‘‘split” and supported candidates on both tickets. In the campaign now on he is publisher ot the selfdubbed “Rensselaer Democrat.” Jno. W. Sickels is announced as editor. From his boast to us we. conclude he is equally at home in a Democratic or Republican paper. Publisher and editor are evidently well mated. True democrats have no respect for, or faith in, men endowed with such gifts.

Goodland Herald. —A young Democrat, of Rensselaer, who has already reached the bottom of the legal ladder, and who never was and is not a subscriber to the Herald, wants to know “why we don’t give more railroad news.” Verily, this aspiring young iawyer, like hundreds of others, is a reader, but not a subscriber. The men who borrow newspapers also borbow books, and the most there is of them is borrowed material.

NOTIFIED.

The Committee appointed to notify President Cleveland of the action of the Democratic National Convention, called at the White House on Tuesday last m performance of that duty. In re~ spouse the President said: I cannot but be profoundly impressed when I see about me the messengers of the national democracy, bearing Its summons to duty. The political party to which I owe allegiance both honors and commands me. It places in my hands its proud standard, and bids me bear it high at the fiont, in a battle which it wages, bravely because conscious of right, confidently because its trust is in the people, and oberly became it cemprehends the obligations which success imposes. The message which vou bring awakens within me the liveliest sense *of personal gratitude and satisfaction, and the honor which you tender me is in itself so great that there might well be no room for any other se iiment. And yet I cannot rid myself of frave and serious thoughts when remember that party supremacy is not alone involved in the conflict which presses upon us, but that we struggle to secure and save the cherished institutions, the welfare and happiness of a nation of freemen.

“Familiarity with the great office which I hold has but added to my apprehension of its sacred character and the consecration demanded of him who assumes its immense responsibilities. It is the repository of the people’s will and power. Within its vision should be the protection and welfare of the humbLst citizen; and with quick ear it should catch from the remotest corner of the land the plea of the people for justice and for right. For the sake of the people he who holds this office of theirs should resist every encroachment upon its legitimate functions; and for the sake of the integrity and usefulness of the office it should be kept near to the people and be administered in full sympathy with their wants and needs.

“This occasion reminds me most vividly of the scene when four years ago I received a message from my party similar to that which you n s w deliver. With all that has passed feince that day I can truly say that the feeling of awe with which I heard the summons then is intensified many fold when it is repeated now. Four years ago 1 knew that our chief executive office, if not carefully guarded might drift, little by little, away from the people to whom it belonged, and become a perversion of all it ought to be; but I did not know how much its moorings had already been loosened. I knew four years ago how well devised were the principles of true democracy for the successful operation of a government by the people and for the people; but I did not know how absolutely necessary their application then was for the restoration to the people of their safety and prosperity. I knew then that abuses and extravagances had crept into the management of public affairs; but I did not know their numerous forms nor the tenacity of their grasp. I knew then something of the bitterness of partisan obstruction; but I did not know how bitter, how reckless and how shameless it could be. I knew, too, that the American people were patriotic and just; but I did not know how grandly they loved their country, nor hpw noble or generous they were. I. shall not dwell upon the acts and the policy of the administration now dra wing to a close. Its record is open to every citizen ok the land/ And yet I will’ not be denied"fhe privilege of asserting at this time that in the exercise of the functions of the high trust confided to me, 1 have yielded obedience osly to the constitution and the solemn obligation of my oath of office. I hav o done those things, which in the light of the understanding God has given me, so *med most conducive to the welfare of my countrymen and the promotion of good government I would not if I could for myself nor for you, avoid a single consequence of a fair interpretation of my course. “It but remains for me to say to you, and th ■ough you, to the democracy of the pation, that I accept the nomination with whicji they have honored me, and that I will in due time signify such ac-

c eptance in the usual formal manner.” Here is the republican candidate as he was dished up in the Chic go Tribune of last Saturday: Harrison, unpopular at home, disliked abroad; not supported by any Germad newspaper or recognized by anv German leader in. the United States; not numbering among his close friends one man who ever senred with him in the. senate of the United States; hated in California because he voted fourteen times against the restrict tion of Chinese immigration; opposed in his own state because he is cold and distantj in his manner and identified with every public act that has ever been adopted which could wound the sensibilities of voters not numbered among his own particular clique in the republican party; having strong sup port among politicians, but little among the rank and file of the party; never elected to any office save that of reporter of the supreme court by the popular vote, and it notj probable that he ever will be; the residuary legatee of the New York Central railroad.
