Democratic Township Convention.

The Democrats of Marion township, Jasper county, Indiana, are requested to meet in Rensselaer, on SATURDAY, MARCH 29,1890, at 2 o’clock, p. m., for the purpose of placing in nomination a Democratic Township Ticket to be voted for Monday, April 7,1890. Lee E. rLAZEBROOK, Ch’n Democratic Township Com. The Blair educational bill has been defeated in the Senate. The destruction by fire of the the Bowen AJ errill block, and loss of life, at lndianapi lis, the other day, was a terrible affair. The building was totally destroyed, eleven firemen were killed, and a larger number hurt. We trust the Democracy in each township in Jasper county will have a ticket in the field at the April election. Select good men, allow no divisions to exist, give tricksters working into the hands of the opposition a wide herth, and go in te win. In the last congressional ele. - tion in the state of Massachusetts, 178,811 republicans elected ten congressmen, while 150,917 democrats elect id only two. That is to say, it requires in that state 75,458 votes, on an average to elect a democrat to congress, but only 17,881 to elect a republican. The republicans are opposed to fair election. Already they have commenced proeeedings in this state with a view to break down the new election law. When it reaches the supreme court they expect Berkshire, Coffey and Olds to stand by the partisan methods which have made them conspicuous in their ruhngs on legislative action hpretofore. If republicans were honest and sincere in tlie.r imputations of fraud to the Indiana democracy they would cheerfully consont to let the law stavd. Mr. Hawley, republican, in opposing the Blair educational bill in the S nate, lead a table of an—propriations to be made for the next fiscal year, showing an aggregate of expenditures of $523,000,000 against an estimated revenue of $450,000,000, making a deficit of $73,000,000. Ui der a Democratic administration an immense surplus was left in the treasurj'. Harrison’s administration has squandered that surplus, and the expenditures from the appropriations to be made will exceed the estimated receipts $73,000,000. White County Democrat: “It will now In in order for those trustees of Benton, Jasper and other counties of this state, who have been violating the law and their oath of office in the interest of Van Antwerp, Bragg & Co., to right-about-face” in open order and in double-quick time. Monkey business ?s over and the new books must be used.” It should also be in order for the voters who have been competed to pay two prices to Van Antwerp, Bragg & Co., through the partisian mulishness of trustees who may be candidates for reelection, to relegate them to pr. rate life.

Uncle Stewart Hammond thinks j that the description last week of the author of the communication ; lately published in the Democratic Sentinel attacking the official rec ord of Trustee Greenfield, might j lead some people to believe that be was the writer referred to We hasten to exonerate Mr. Hammond. He had o connection with the matter, at all. “Republican. Ah, there! George. You should not give (Jncle Stewart away in that style. From your statement we are led to infer that the gentleman has been expressing sentiments similar to those contained ed iff the communication referred to. Then, again, that Uncle Stewart should take take to himself the description: “Sorehead!” “Apostate Republican!” etc., is, to say the least, ather rough on him. Having been informed that Uncle Billy Greenfield had requested th . teachers in his employ to boom him agai st attacks from “A Republican,” we scanned the columns of the Republican to find the production. It appears as an editorial, and wo hasten to assure uncle Billy that it will do him no harm. For a large number of years the Democratic party in congress, through the press and on the stump denounced Republicans on account of thb surplus, etc. —Re publican. The Democratic party denounced the Republicans for their method of robbing tho peoph and taking frem the channels of trade more money than was necessary for the expenditures of the government economically administered; and for transferring from the pockets of the people into the coffers of monopolists five times the amount received by the government. You see, George, you are very dull of comprehension and don’t under stand. A fellow calling himself Heitz, claiming to hail from Lima, Ohio, and a newspaper man, struck this place Friday of wet-k before last f and it did not take long for a few of Sickels’ old friends to freeze to him. At their suggestion he was desirous of purchasing the St-n f inel, und while considering our proposition, left town last Friday, and also left an unpaid, board bill amounting to nearly $lO for Geo. Goff to carry. He was a frequent visitor to the “buffets” while here The tariff reform fever is spreading is the west with a rapidity that alarms the pro tectionist doctors. They can find no remedy for the ail ment; and this is one of the chiefest reasons for packing the senate of the United States in the interest of monopoly—in the Montana case for instance.

It is reported that the committee has reconsti acted the Windom bill and made it practically an unlimited silver coinage measure. It is to be hoped the report is true, though it is a little hard on the great financial /policy of the ad ministrati on. f Senator Pasco, of Florida’ worried the Republicans the other day by the introduction of a bill prohibiting officers of the United States from packing juries in United States courts, and providing that juries shall be selected without regard to the political or relig ious opinions or affiliations of the .jurors. Of course, a Republican Congress will pass no such bill, but the Republican senators may be puzzled to avoid a direct vote on it Mr. John U. Iliff and Miss Mary S. Adams, both of Jordan tp.. were married at the home of the bride’s parents, Thursday, March 13, Rev. U. M. McGuire, of Rensselaer, officiat ing. George Reed, of Barkley town j ship, died last Saturday at ttoe age! of about 43 years.

Those who do not believe there is any growing interest in the question of Tariff Relorm should drop in at the office of W. J. Mize, Secretary of the Illinois Tariff Reform League, md read some of his letters from disgusted farmers all over the State of Illinois. Clubs are being organized all over the West, and the people are seeking means for the study of the “condition which confronts them.” t ~r It is claimed by the hightaxers that the late convention of Republican clubs at Nashville was indication of the strength of their party in the South. Inasmuch as tney chose the agent of the Pacific railroads as President, and welcomed the notorious warmoth as the standard bearer in Louisiana, it may be conjectured that the old days are to be revived, when Republican patriots are to imitate Patterson, in prophesying “anoth er four years of good stealing.” The first gun of the Tariff Reform campaign in the State of Illinois was fired at Bloom' ington last Saturday, when a large audience gathered to hear the tarifi question discussed by Franklin MacVeagh and C. S Darroh. It is evident from the reports of the meeting that the interest in this question is not confined to the large cities. The farmers of Illinois do not relish a loss of $10,000,000 a year on their corn crop sold in a “home market.” “It is a condition and not a theory that confronts us.” It was distinctly asserted in a Chicago pulpit last Sunday that Stonewall Jackson, in spite of his exemplary Christian character, died as a rebel, and was, therefore, as sure of future punishment as any “bloodthirsty Missouri bushwhacker.” It would be a favor to many citizens if the Reverend gentleman would explain what would have been the effect upon Jackson and those who fell in the same if the war had resulted different ly, and the rebels had become patriots—as did Washington. The point is a trifle confusing to the lay mind.

It his letter to The World to-day Mr. Powderly draws attention to the fact that for every 119,624 tons ot coal mined in one district in Pennsylvania a human life is sacrificed . And yet these miners, no matter how diligently they toil, have as little money for food for themselves and families as the veriest pauper laborers of Europe. For what are they protected?— Now York World To be entitled to vote at the April election the voter must have resided in the State six months, in tin township sixty days, and in the precinct thirty days immediately preceding the election. Indianapolis News. Rep.:— The decision of the supreme court sustaining the school book law will be good news to all honest men. It marks the final victory over one of the most eon upt and unscrupulous campaigns that was ever set on foot to save the chance for plunder that for years had plucked the state. There may be a little drawback in the thought that this decisiou, thus ending tin question as an issue, does a way with the chance, to administer another crushing defeat to the gang which seemed determined to tempt fate again with it. It would have been soothing to have had the crack of another general election at the crowd whose dastardly efforts to overthrow this law can only be compared with those it made to prevent. But all’s well that ends well. Indiana has no cause for greater state pride than the sagacity and determination with which she has driven this school book ring from ditch to ditch, until even now from the last one.
