8®“ We have no asylum for idiots in Indiana, but I think it would be very well for the next legislature to turn its attention in that direction.—Ben Harrison’s compliments to the Greenbackers, 1878.-^8

Billy Owen savers taxes on salt sugar, lumber, etc,, and free whisky and tobaca*. lloolay for Hallison ! He heapee good Mellican man, lun like ellee.—Hop Sing. Benjaming J Lossing, the historian, has severed his ct nnection with the Republican party. When asked if the republican nominee for President is going to be elected request the interrogator to spell liis name back vard fer the correct answer —no-sir-raH!

Ex-Mayor Seth Low, of Brooklyn, N. Y., refuses to swallow the republican free-whisky-tobacco platform, and the N. Y. Tribune stigmatizes him as a “Sundayschool politician.”

‘‘Harrison is a thoroughbred.” —Lapurte Herald-Chronicle. Then there’s two of ’em. Our Bro. James, present proprietor of the Rensselaer Democrat, has laid claim to that distinction all along. Will Guthrie, republican, at one time County Superintendent White, the Democrat says, has announced himself squarely for Cleveland. He would have supported Gresham, but Harrison’s Chinese record is too rank.

Two years ago, at the commence- ' ment of the political campaign. “The Message” was established by , Bro James with the claim hat it was the only “trooly loil” Repub- j lican paper in the county. For j cause the paper took a slight departure soon af f er and undertook the support of certain candidates on the tickets of the two prominent parties. At the dose of the hrst year it ceased to exist. Now, at the beginning of another campaign the paper, under a new heading, and its proprietor, again press into the field. Now it professes orthodox Democracy, and is very windy and profuse in its advice to Democrats. It is persistent, and we may say insulting, too, in orders to Democrats to “start forward the band wagon,” etc. The masses of the Democratic party in Jasper county are true, faithful and intelligent. They give of their time and means, to the cause, to the extent of their ability, and need not to be goaded by men who boast of the established rule for their line of conduct “when in Rome to do as Rome does,”; or who can with equal sang froid plank down a pocket book an 1 declare ‘‘therein, gentlemen, consists my political principles!” The Democracy have a right to know, under the circumstances, what substantial aid— votes —may be expected from Bro. James’ office. — Votes are what count at the ballotbox. Will Bro. James publish a paper professedly in the interest of Mr. Cleveland, and -vote for Ben Harrison?

Herr Wilkorn, editor and proprietor of the Evansville Post, the leading German Republican paper in southern Indiana, bolts Harrison’s nomination, and will sup. port Cleveland and Thurman.

The republican platform offers the American people taxed salt } taxed coal, taxed Ixmber, taxed clothing, taxed blankets, taxed dishes, taxed glass and taxed tools, and free whisky and tobacco.

Capt. Gil Barnard, who commanded a company in Gen. Ben. Harrison’s regiment, and who was several years chairman of the republican centxal committee of Morgan county, refuses to support Harrison.

“Rather than surrender any part of our high tax system.” says the Republican National Platform, “we favor the repeal of all internal taxes. If taxes must be reduced, they mus c come off whisky and tobacco, and not off lumber, clothing, salt, iron and steel, coal and the other necessaries of life.”.

J. R. Buchanan, editor of the Chicago Labor Enquirer, denounces the nomination of Harrison as the triumph of monopolists. He says during his (Harrison’s) six years in the United States Senate he was the champion of all railroads jobs, and tho uncompromising foe of anti-Chinese legislation.

“The President’s reply ac .omp_ anying vetoes of some private pen_ sio i bills is that of an honest man > and he speaks the words of truth end soberness. It is singular that with the most prodigal and perhaps the most liberal law in its application of any Government in the world, out pension laws do not cover all deserving cases, but must be continually supplemented by special legislation. ” —lndianapolis News, republican.

One of the most significant things connected with the campaign in the Empire state is the position of the New York Sun. — That paper opposed the nomination of Grover Cleveland, and it took some rime for it to recover from the shock it received from the St. Louis Convention; but now it has come out in favor of Cleveland and Thurman. The Sun dislikes to be on the losing side. It carefully looked over the New York field. It got an idea how the vote was likely to go. It then espoused the cause of the democratic candidates.

□Bro. James was engaged this] morning tacking nr c ;r culars start-. ing out with theque/ “Are yon a Democrat?” One i iaiully inquires why he makes -it his fcusi-1 ness to know. “Jno. W. Sickels, Editor,” is the way it reads. The name of the printer, or publisher, is not given. Thin must be galling to James’ pride, as well as cowardly. Query: Is Hickels employed by James; or, is James the employe of Sickels?

LIKE MASTER LIKE MAN.

The IndianaooJis Journal was in Mareh, 1882, when the Miller antiChinese bill was pending in congress, the personal organ of Benjamin Harrison, as it is to-dav. Like him u strenuously opposed the restriction of Chinese immigration. Its editorial columns were filled with praises of the Chinese, and with denunciations of those who were try ing to keep them out of the country. On March 28, 1882, m a leading editorial, the Journal said: They who shout “The Chines* must go” are as mistaken as the dweller on the Yazoo who stands upon its banks and curses the Father of Waters. Repulsed from our shores, the Chinese flood will pour into Peru, into the South Sea islands, into Spain, i to Cuba, into Mexico, to him the lower levels. But finally ho will overspread di diets whose inhabitants have miscalculated the extent and might of the flood. His virtues are sobriety, tuodeoty, patience and economy, and he is a teacher to the labor of all lands. Whatever his faults, his lesson must be learned|by th* strikers and grumblers everywhere, for none has so suuccessfully met and triumphed over the harder condi. tions of life. He is a wonder and a marvel, an astonish ment and a surprise, but a warnii.g snd an admonition as well.

Six days after the above appeared Benjamin Harrison voted in the senate to sustain President Arthur’s veto of the anti-Chinese bill. Indianapolis Sentinel. f

During the week a prospectus from the pen and office of Bro, J ames, containing an index of the contents of his paper was issued. Democrats need no reminders of their duty from tin. _o;;ree. They are readv for action, and with all honesty of purpose will press for. ward in tho performance of their whole duty and will know without our telling that they require no promptings from that quarter.— Bro. James’ political antecedents are well known, and will commend him to no square Democrat. He is a Republican—a stalwart of tK stalwarts —and has no claim upon the confidence of fair minded Democrats.

The republican Senate recently passed a bill declaring forfeited about 5,000,000 acres On being sent to the demoeratic House it was amended, increasing the number of acres forfeited to over 54,000,000. Will the Senate accept the bill as amended?

Hon. A. P. Fitch, republican M, G. from New York, made a strong speech in favor of the Mills Tariff bill, and was burned in effigy by republican free-whisky zealots.— He has cut loose from that party.

Editor Gruelle, of the Indianapolis Labor Signal says: “The selection of Benjamin Harrison was a serious blunder. He is opposed by the organized laborers of this and every other State on account of his record in the Senate, his votes on the Chinese question, his action during the railroad strike in 1887 and during the Senatorial canvass two years ago. There is every probability that as soon as the excitement dies away there uqll be organized opposition to him among the. Knights of Labor and ti*ades unions. I have already talked with numerous Republican laborers who declare their intention of voting agrinst him.” Editor Gruelle supported Judge Gresham at Chicago.

Senator L. D. Waiting, of Illinois. a life-long ' r übliaan, in abjuring his aSlli tl n with the Re-

pul lican party, ...*y3: “The tariff question is substantial iy all tbai theio its in our politics to-day. I bold t at it is not for the good of free institutions i r civilization that our agricultural domainsfshall decline in prosperity and consequently in intelligence and induence. If I could see relief for the farmers in a high protective tariff I should be at home these warm nights instead of Raveling around the country. But the farmers must be aroused from their lethargy. They must be made to see that when any class in the community is protected another clttbS must pay for such protec tion. When they realize that they themselves, being in the majority, get absolutely no protection, and that when they buy necessaries they pay a high price to protect manufacturers who are in the minority, they will set as one man. They vyill not act as Democrats or Republicans, but as men who appreciate the necessity of revenue reform so that the greatest number may enjoy the greatest good.”

The windy editor of the Democrat made a bad break when he said the tax on dogs collected in 1887 in Jasper county was $8,370,76. The official report has it $977,10—a difference of only $7,393.06. John Jessen was right when h.j said thejnew paper would be a— Hummer Groceries! Groceries It Groceries !!! Cheap as the cheapest, at J. W. Duvall’s new Grocery.
