The Democratic Central Committee,
Pursuant to call, met in Rensselaer on Saturday last. A majority of th - townships were represented. On motion it was resolved that the Democrats of the several townships meat at their usual places of meeting on Saturday, October 26, 1889, and select a township committee and chairm; n and secretary of the same;’ mi that the chairmen of the several township committees meet in Rensselaer on Saturday, Nov. 2, 1889, and organize as the County Committee, select officers for the same, appoint an Executive Committee and transact such other business as maybe deemed necessary. It is hoped the Democrats in the several townships wi 1 respond promptly in accordance with the above action of the Central Committee. Let it be remembered that in proper organization, aided by the operation of the new eleciion law, when it comes in for e, there is a prospect ft r the ascendancy of Democratic men and xa.easuies even in Jasper county. Such has been *he result elsewhere. Then to action.

At their monthly meeting, Monday night, the Town Board passed t_e ordinance raising peddlers’ licenses to §lO per day and §SO a year.—Repuoli :an. Of course if the above can be made operative all revenue for the cor Deration from that source will be cut off. It is plain to be seen that is intended to be prohibitory. As the authority of the trusteees aS confined to Rensselaer their action will not affect Marion town ship outside the cop oration, and that class of our people are at lib ertv to take advantage of any bar gains that may be offered. We are opposed to this matter from principle. A reasonable license, one t. at would equalize proportionately the tax of the peddler with that of the resident merchant, no objection would be urged. As it is the ordinance will not bear as oppressively upon the peddlers as up<n the citizens. Like all high tariff legislation, it is in the interest o? a few dealers at the expense of the masses—the consumers.

MAN.
Poette Thoughts Concerning BQ*. Man passes away; his name perishes from record and recollection; his history is as a tale that is told; and his very monument becomes a ruin. Washington Irving. To understand man, however, we must look beyond the individual man. and his actions or interests, and view him in combination with his fellows.— Carlyle. Man is his own star, and that soul that can be honest is the only perfect man.— Beaumont and Fletcher. The scientific study of man is the most difficult of all branches of knowledge.— Oliver Wendell Holmes. The man of wisdom is the man of years.— Young. Man whose Heaven-erected face The smiles of love adorn, Man’s Inhumanity to man Makes countless thousands m.-urn. •-Burns. Stood I, 0 Nature! man alone in thee. Then were It worth one’s while a man to be. —Goethe. A man is the whole encyclopedia of facts. The creation of a thousand forests is in one acorn, and Egypt, Greece, Rome, Gaul, Britain, America lie folded already in the first man.—Emerson.
Su-th is man! in great affliction, he is elevated by the first minute; in great happiness, the most distant, sad one, even while yet beneath the horizon, casts him down.— Rich ter. What a piece of work is man! How noble in reason! how infinite in faculty ! in form, and moving, how express and admirable! in action, how like an angel! in apprehension, h<nr like a god I the beauty of the world! the paragon of animals! And yet, to me, what is this quintessence of dust? Shakipeare. When faith is lost, when honor dies, Then man is dead. —Whittier. Reading maketh a full man, conference a ready man, and writing an exact oMn. — Bacon. A man that is temperate, generous, valiant, chaste, faithful, and honest, may, at the same time, have wit, humor, good-breeding, mirth, and gallantry; while he exerts these latter qualities twenty occasions might be invented to show he is master of the other nobler virtues.— Steele. God, when heaven and earth He did create. Formed man, who should of both parcicivate -Sir.l. Denham, Men are but children of a larger growth; Our ..ppeiitesare apt to change as theirs. And ‘ ull as craving, too, and full as vain. -Dryden. , Consider, man; weigh well thy frame; The king, the beggar, are the same. Dust formed us all. Each breathes his day, Then sinks into his native clay. -Gay. Nobler birth Of creatures animate with gradual life Of growth, seuse, reason, ah summed up fcr man. —Milton. The proverbial wisdom of the populace at gates, on roads, and in markets, instructs the attentive ear of him who studies *an more fully than a thousand rules ostentatiously arranged.— Lavater. Man, though individually confined to « narrow spot on this globe, and limfted, in his existence, to a few courses of the sun, has nevertheless an imagination which no despotism can control, and which unceasingly seeks for th< author ot his destiny through the immensity of space and the ever-rolling Mirren* of age*.— Colton.
Just Looked at Him.

A man saw th* stationary feminine figure, and, ap< proaching, began with confidence to talk about the weather, and inquire the young woman’s destination. He was met with a stony stare. He braved ii for a moment and talked on, but presently his words began to fail, he re» Ciated himself, he stammeret, he statred, he even blushed under the cool, surprised eyes, and in the end he tamed and almost ran away from ths woman he was insulting.—
Matrimonial Harmony.
“Are you as happy now as you were before you were married ?” asked Mrs, Yeast of young Mrs Crimsonbeak. “Yes, indeed,” replied the lady, “and a great deal happier.” “That’s strange,” suggested the philanthropist’s wife. “Not at all strange,” came from the young married “You see, before I was married 1 used to spend half my time worrying about what dress I should wear when Daniel called.” “But don’t you try just as hard udw io look well when your husband returns home at night ?” interrupted Mrs Yeast. “Well, you see,” went on the bride two. summers, “I don’t worry any ■tout it now, as I have only one dress to my aarne.”— Yonkertt Statesman.
Bright Prospects.

VOORHEES’ SPEECH,
From Bth Page—Concluded.
against this arbitrary and oppressive action of their employer he hired a hundred of Pinkerton s men, armed to the teeth, and brought upon the ground as his assistant arbitrators with his workmen. This was his mode of arbitration. He gave his helpless and dependent people, I had amost said slaves, the alternative of returning to their work at reduced wages, or leaving their homes in the vain pursuit of work elsewhere, or to be shot down if they offered any resistance. He oppressed and ground the faces of the poor and prepared himself to shed innocent blood if his avarice was resisted. Protection to labor! The slavery of the South before the war was a greater protection to labor than the tariff laws of the present day. The negro at least was secure in a home, and a sufficient amount of healthy food. The interest of his master and his mistress made it so, if it came from no higher or worthier motive In sick© ess he and his little brood were cared for. w ho cares for the wage-worker, the miner or factory hand, when health fails, or when his labor is no longer needed? He is cast out, and if it needsis allowed to die of want In many of its aspects that slavery which the war wiped out in blood, and which I rejoice to feel is gone never to return, was merciful compared to the sla very which now exists among millions of white men and women. here during the slavery in the cotton fields and the sugar plantations was ever to be seen such a spectacle as has been presented in the county of Clay in our own state? Between five and six thousand men,women and children have eaten the bread of friendly charity. You may say that they could have obtained work at reduced wages. Perhaps so, but that very fact discloses their helplessness in the clutches of the monopolists who employ them, f the employer can dictate a reduction of wages ot 15, |25 or 50 per cent., that concedes the vvhole question; the wage-worker is not protected at all.
There is a much longer parallel that might be run b’tween the slavery of the olien South and the slavery established by the power of wealth that prevails in the ranks of labor’ throughout the country at this time, but I forbear for the present This is a theme that can and will be resumed again and again. This fight is on and to it I dedicate the remainder of my life. I know what a contest against the money power is. I have engaged in such conflicts before. fought the battles of the silver dollar; i have fought the battles of tin greenback, and 1 know the abuse and brutal denunciations that follow.— Thecause of honest labor now demands that every (honest man in the i epul Lc join in battle against the robbery of labor for the still furl her enrichment ot the already rich, this question will never down. The principle of taking from one iiian what is his own to benefit ano her man to whom it does not belong involves and strikes down the eternal and ever active natural rights of man. i would say to the advocates of the high protective tariff; forbear; you are on dangerous ground. Such an issue as this has bathed glorious battle-fieids with blood. God so guided the wisdom of our fathers, however, as to give us a redress in a peaceful mode. Ihe ballot is your sure and only necessary weapon. The diffusion of light and knowl edge is all that is needed. To the farmer, to the wage worker, ’ would say, how long, oh, Lord, how long until you see and act as becomes free men 2 For myself I can say in the language of Sir Robert Peel after he had triumphed in the repeal of the odious protective tariff corn laws of England, ‘I
shall leave a name execrated by every monopolist who from less honorable motives clamors for nrotection because it conduces to his own individual benefit, but ii may be that 1 ihall leave a name s anetimes remembered with expressions of c-ood will in the abodes of those whose lot it is to toil and earn their daily bread by the sweat of their brow,when they shall recruit their exhausted 'strength with abundant and untaxed food, the sweeter because it is no longer leavened oy the sense of i nj ustice.” The British statesman rejoiced in cheapening or/ 1 <»1 the great staple articles of food. Our cause of reform is broader in its scope. It embraces the relief of labor in the production of everything necessary to the comfcrtable existence of the civilized races of mankind. The eternal r ght belongs to us. We cannot fail. And how glorious it will be for the proud commonwealth of Indiana to be found at the head of the giant column, now moving all over the land for the emancipation of the present and o e future generations from he heavy yoke, the galling servitude of iniquitous and criminal taxation.
