THE CAMPAIGN TEXT BOOK for 1888 is now ready, and will be furnished on application to the National Democratic Committee, lo West 29th St., New York City. Price sl. In quantities of five cr more 5o cents each. “We favor the entire repeal of the internal taxes (on whisky and tobacco) rather than the surrender of any part of our protective system.”—Chicago platform. “The platform is in entire harmony with my views.”—Ben Harrison. “Unnecessary taxation is unjust taxation.”—President Cleveland in his letter of acceptance.

“Trusts are private affairs with which President Cleveland and the people have no right to interfere.”—Blaine in the interest of “Trusts.” “Such combinations have always been condemned by the Democratic party. The declaration of its national convention is sincer dy made, and no member of our party will be found excusing the existence or belittling the pernicious results of these devices to wrong the people. Under various names they have been punnished bv common law for hundreds of years; and they have lost none of their hateful features because they have assumed the name of ‘Trusts’ instead of ‘Conspiracies.’ We believe that these Trusts are the natural offspring of a market artificially restricted; that an inordinately high tariff, I esides furnishing the temptatiou for their existence, enlarges the limit within which they may operate against the people, and thus increases the extent of their power for wrong-

doing. With an unalterable hatred for all such schemes, we count the checking of their baleful operations among the good results promised by revenue reform.” — President Cleveland in his letter of acceptance.

Democratic pole raising at Kniman, Saturday, September 29th. — Turn out! ■ —» —— Hon. J, Kopelka will address he people at Kniman on the issues of the day, Saturday, Sept. 29th, on the occasion of the Democratic pole raising. The Republican State Committee will not permit Gen. Hovey to engage in joint discussion with Col. Matson, and Gen. Hovey don’t want to. Hovey and his committee are in happy harmony in that regard.

‘ Oh, ye Gods and Little Fishes!” One W. H. Calkins, an intimate and political friend of Bro. James, who at one misrepresented this district in Congress, and who was so badly left by Gov. Gray four years age, has expressed a desire to discuss the tariff issue with the Tall Sycamore. The Major sho’d not monkey with a buzz-saw. —■— » i ■» Read the great speech of the Secretary of the Interior, deliv. ered at Milwaukee. It is printed on another page. Hon. J. Kopelka dissects Billy Owen’s tariff speech with a master hand in the columns of the Valparaiso Messenger. He leaves nothing for the small statesman to stand upon.

A Little Too Previous! —Our Republican. friends, in order to more widely circula'e the notice of their approaching rally, desire to post th?ir announcements in the post office, a favor which post master Bates has consistently aid impartially refuted to all parties. A different state of affairs from those under preceding fadministrations now exist. We dl remember the following exposition of “offensive partisanism” chalked on the post office bulletin board the day following the Democratic jubilee, by Bro. James, now proprietor of the “Rensselaer Democrat!”:

“The vandalism committed last night are the legitimate, < rganized, 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 defense of the Union.”

A REPUBLICAN LIE NAILED.

We notice in the Rensselaer Republican of the 20th inst. issue the following statement which we copy verbatim: “The Democrats in the town of Wheatfield had a Dole raising, not long since, and there not being Democrats enough present to raise the pole, the ever accommodating Republicans turned out and helped on the job. This is “straight goods.” Nothing could be more absurd than this statement. Never in the history of the town of Wheatfield, had there been more people in the town, on one day, than on Sept. 12th, the day of the Democratic pole raising. Moro than a hundred good, patriotic Democrats were deprived of the chance to pull om the ropes on account of not being needed, and if there was one republican that helped to pull one pound, it was because his conscience t'>ld him he ought to pay the debt he owed the good Democrats for their assistance the day of the republican pole raising at Wheatfield, some time sinsie, when they called to some good Democratic carpenters to come and give them a lift, only to carry their pole a few feet, as their foico of good republicans were insufficient— These are facts, as the writer of this article carried a goodly share of the weight of this pole on handspike to help the few out of their dilemma. The fact is, as all know

around here (because most all the people were out) that there were five Democrats at the Democratic pole raising, to one Republican on the day of the Republican, pole pole raising. HOOSIER. Wheatfield, Sept. 21.

A STORY WITH A MORAL.

“A ship at sea was overtaken by a plague, and her passengers and crew were dying off in rapid succession. As a sanitary measure, in order to prevent, as far as possible the spread of the malady, the captain gave orders to immediately throw overboard tne bodies o? the dead as soon as life was known to be extinct, and for this special service he detailed a large burly negro, who was one of the ship’s crew. The negro went faithfully to work carrying out rigidly the the order, until after awhile the captain observed him dragging one of the ship’s crew, a man whose reputation for truth and veracity was not to be envied, toward the bulwarks to throw him overboard. The man was sick with the plague, but was protesting as best he could, asserting that he was not dead. The captain, calling to the negro, asked: “ ‘What are you going to do with that man?’ “ ‘G’wine to throw him o’erboard, sah. He’s dead.’ “‘Dead!’thundered the captain, ‘isn’t he telling you with his own mouth that he is not dead?’ “ ‘Yes, sah,’ responded the negro, ‘but he’s sueh a liar that nobody can believe him.’ ”

Moral. —Now in view of the lying predictions and false representations made by the republican party during the campaign of 1884, that if the democratic party came in power Union soldiers’ pensions would be stopped; rebel soldiers would be pensioned; the rebel debt would be paid; the regroes would be remanded to slavery or their value paid to their former masters, etc., etc., —and its present hvpocritical deceitful cry of “free trade” as against an imperative demand for a reform of our tariff laws recommended by President Cleveland, and being carried into effect by the democratic party, so so that the masses of the people—the wage-worker and the whole body of the consumers and workers can have something near an equal chance with the hitherto favored few, don’t it look as if the people will and horestly ought to adopt the negro sailor’s logic—consider that party dead, drag it to the bulwarks and throw it overboard. In this case there is no ship master with arbitrary power to stop the performance. Th e people happen to be boss of this machine, and the negro is going to largely assist in getting rid of the falsifying, demoralizing, plague-produc-ing party.

Peru Sentinel: Gen. Chalmers, the infamous rebel scoundrel who murdered in cold blood Union soldiers at Ft. Pillow, is the republican candidate for congress of the Second Mississippi district. How do the Union soldiers like it?

Hartford (Ct.) Times- The republican party blocks the prosperity of the manufacturers by taxing them heavily and unnecessarily. Their policy of so taxing the manufacturers has closed up over forty woolen mills in New England, and it has crippled others. Those that move are kept along by the use of shoddy.

A MURDER AT WINAMAC.

A cold-blooded murder was committed at Winamac, last Thursday. Joseph W. Robinson, of Francesville, was shot in the head and almost instantly killed by Mike Rinehart, a barber of Winamac. The deed was committed in a saloon, while Robinson was in the act of lighting a cigar. The two men had a quarrel during the day, but at the time Robinson had just asked Rinehart to take something, and make up the quarrel. Rinehart was arrested a short time after the shooting. He had been drinking heavily for some time past. Robinson, the murdered man, was 27 years old, and leaves a wife and three children. He but lately settled in Francesville, and was a half brother of J. J. Robinson, the gas well borer, and associated with him in the business. Henry Clay—“No one, in the commencement of the protective policy, ever supposed that it was to be perpetual.”

James A. GARFIELD.

“In 1860 the burdens of national taxation were light. All our revenues, including loans, amounted to only 876,000,000. Our expenditures were $77,000,000, and our whole public debt but £65,000,000. In the sear 1860 the tonnage of our ships upon the seas was 5,353,868 tons, which was more by 140,000 tons than in any other year of our history before or since. Twothirds of our imports were then carried in American bottoms, as were also more than two-thirds of our exports. Our exports that year reached the aggregate value of $400,000,000, which was forty-three and onehaff millions more than during any previous year. Our imports were $362,000,000, decidedly more han any other year. And I make this statement on the authority of David A. Wells, that in 1860 we were exporting to foreign countries more American manufactures than in any other year of our history. ****** The fact is, Mr. Chairman, the decade from 1850 to 1860 was one of peace and general prosperity. —Extracts from speech of James A. Garfield in the House March 6, 1878.
