DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
The Democratic voters of Jasper bounty, and all other enemies of monopolies, trusts and combines, who believe that the adoption of of Democratic principles are essential to the welfare of the whole people, are requested to meet in mass convention at the usual, voting places, in the various townships, on
SATURDAY, JULY 26, 1890, at 2 o’clock p. m., to transact the following business: Ist. Appoint a committee of three, who, with the chairman of township committee shad prepare a complete and accurate poll of the voters of the township, the same to be delivered to the chair** man of the central committee on the*date of the county convention.
2d. S dect such other committees as may in the judgment of the convention be necessary to a complete and thorough organization of the party in the township. 3d. Select one delegate for each ten votes, and one for each fracs tion over five votes cast for C. C. Matson for Governor at the Nov** ember election of 1888. The above apportionment entitles the various townships to delegates as follows:
Hanging Grove 4 Walker 7 Marion 20 Newton 7 Kankakee 4 Carpenter.: 17 Union 8 Gillam 4 Barkley 8 Jordan 7 Keener 3 Wheatfield. 6 Milroy 3 The delegates so selected will meet in delegate convention in the Town of Rensselaer, on SATURDAY, AUGUST 2, 1890, at 1 o’clock p. m. to nominate a county ticket to be voted for at the November eloction, 1890, and also to appoint delegates to the various conventions. By order of County Committee. DAVID W. SHIELDS, Chairman. Jas. W. McEwen, Sec’y. ■ Our Billy Owen heard from the Farmers’ alliance, and voted for free silver, but then he was satis- ' fied his vote would not carry it. The Republican,last week, made the following complimentary an *, nouncement of the republican candidate for representative: “It is reported that a man named Parker, from Remington, was nominated for Representative. Ihere must be a mistake or skullduggerry. As it has proved to be no mis* take the nomination must have been accomplished by “skullduggery!” The republican party is well known for the avidity with which it (resorts to extreme questionable methods to accomplish its purposes, and what may be said of it collectively, may be said of the individuate composing it. John* son, of Newton, up to within 24 hours of the assembling of the convention was conceded a clpar field, but Grant township, Newton county,backed by the entire Jasper delegation, “eooked his goose” for him 1
It is reported that a man named Parser, from Remington, was no** minated for Representative. There must be a mistake or skullduggery.—Rensselaer Republican. isn’t that a sweet scented send off from “The Organ”? Has the Republican joined hands with the enemy ? Carpenter township deals in no “skuldugglery,” her goods are “all wool and full yard wide. ” - Remington News. The News editor, strikes out for recognition as ‘The Organ’ with all the vim of our former townsman, Horace E. James, possibly not with the same recklessness,
The Rensselaer Sentinel is of the opinion that the Democrats cannot elect a judge against Judge Hammond. The Democrats will run a candidate at anv rate, even if he is defeated. They will have a full ticket, from Congressman to Coroner, and fight it out on that line if it takes another generation. This is the opinion of all with whom we hare conversed.—Kentland Democrat. The above information causeth our heart to leap with joy. No Democrat is more uHCompromis ingly opposed to a ‘bob-tail’ ticket than ourself. We only expressed the opinion as to the probability of securing the consent of a com** petent Democratic attorney to if our friend Spottswood has a Democrat in view for the position we shall be too happy to have him announced.
Those who are interested in a “home market” should read the following, clipped from the republican Indianapolis News: “The full meaning of a ‘home market’ onlv grasped when it is known that our Drotected manufacturers charge our buyers from 10 to 30 per cent, more for the same goods than they do fortign buyers.” Three ship loads of ice from from Norway have arrived in New York and broken the combination price. The ice*«barons will have the McKinley bill amended in no time, to prevent the importation of pauper ice. It exemplifies the protection tiusts get from tariff. It is barely possible that the peo-» pie who are benefited like it.—lndianapolis News, rep.

Jordan B. Noble, colored, died in New Orleans on Sunday, aged ninety»dwo years. He was a drummer boy m the army of Jackson at the battle of Chalmette in 1814. The farm implement makers of this country advertise in Buenos Ayres the same plough for $9 that they advertise in the United States at $lB. This must be very inter t esting to the “home market” farmers of Indiana.—Lafayette Journal. Mot one word concerning the recovery of forfeited public lands has been heard during the present administration. The land pirates are happy. They should be. By way of retaliation England is threatening to lay an embargo on American wheat. Thus is the farmer getting black eye all along the line. But he has his reward in the glorious “Home Market.” The word “its” only occurs once in the whole of the Bible. Michigan who sold their wool under Cleveland’s administration, with the Mills bill before the country, at from 28 to 35 cents, and with the hope of bettering thei condition, gave B. Harrison and protection a large plurality, are now receiving for .best wool clip they ever mark eted, from 24 to 28 cents. They are very sore.
