The Sentinel to-dav«ontains 10 pages, j Do yon want tariff reform? Vote the i National, Congressional and Legislative 1 Democratic ticket Do yon want the force bill to sleep the ! sleep of death? Vote the Demoorattc I ticket straight. The Democrats have not had foil control of the government, that is, the presidency and both houses of congress, sine ) 1857, consequently are not responsible for the class legislation so generally complained of at this time. f you would secure tho desir.d reforms stamp within the square enclosing the rooster. Our neig bor di-claims charging Mr. Bates with the distribution of oampaign boodle. Let’s see. WeJ think the .Republican said: * * “Jasper county received a liberal share of the swag, and at least one man, from an out township, who got £SO of it, got drunk and told about it, * * Chairman Bates hod better choose his boodle agents with more discretion.” W hat further phrases are needed to make the charge emphatic we are u ablo to determine. However, from the crawfishing propensities displayed this week he concodes it to have been false* Our neighbor say. “a young Republican of Marion tp , declares that a prominent Demoerat of Rensselaer told him “there was $lO in it” if he would > tay away from the polls on election day.” The “young Republican," like the “one man, from an out township,” are myths. No name i» given in either Case. The court room was filled Wednesday night to hear Capt. Geo V . Bell on the tariff. The closest attention was given the speaker, and frequent outbursts of applause greeted his remarks.

JUDGE GRESHAM’S LETTER

In order to silence the dieolaimeis ol * he-republican | ress and speakers, Don M. Dickinson, chairman of the Democratic campaign committee, hi* made public the following iot'er from Judge Greshim to Hon. Bluford Wilson: To the Hon. Buford Wilson, Springfield, Ill: Dear Major—l have your letter of the 21st iust. I did tell you a Springfield that, after matu e roll ction, I ha t determined to vote for Mr. Cleveland this fall, because I agree n the main with 1 is views on tne tariff, and (id not believe in the principles embodied in the McKinley bill I adhere to that determination, and have said nothing indicating a change of purpose. It is not true that with my knowledge or consent the President was asked to appoii tme to any oilioe. It is not true that I requested any one to do anything to obtain the Republican nomination this year; it is not true that I voted for Mr. Cleveland in 1888. I voted the Republican tioket at every eleolion einoe the party was organized, except in IftiH, when I was not able to go to the polls. The Republicans were pledged to a reduction of the war tariff long before 1888, and during the campaign of that year the pledge was renewed witr. emphasis again and again. Instead of keeping that promise the McKinley bill was passed, imposing still higher duths. It was passed in the interest of favored classes and nut for the benefit of the whole people. It neither enhanced the price of farm products nor benefited labor. Wages are and ever will be regulated by supply and demand. Duties were imposed on some a tides sc high as to destroy competition and foster trusts and monopolies. I think you will agree with me that this was an abandonment of the doctrine of moderate incidental protection. The tariff is now the most impoitant question before the people, «nd whatever others may do, I shall exorcise the right of individua 1 judgment and vote afoording to my convictions. I think with you that a Republican can vote for Mr. Cleveland without joining the Democratic party. How I shall vote in the future will depend upon the questions at issue. Very truly yours.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

If you want to vote a Straight Democratic Ticket, stamp within the big square containing the Rooster at the top of the ticket. If you stamp within the big square you must not stamp anywhere else on the ticket or you will lose your vote. Yon must not mark on the ballot with anything but the stamp. You must not stamp except on the squares. If you accidently stamp off a square, return your ballot to the poll clerks and get a new one. Don’t stamp inside the square but once. You must fold your ballot before coming out of the booth, so that the face will not show and the initials of the poll clerks on the back will show. The following information will help the voter: 1. If the voter wishes any information as to the manner of voting he may ask the poll clerks. 2. There are two ballot-boxes and two ballots to be voted. One ballot-box is painted red and is for the state ballot, which ballot is on red paper; the other ballot-box is painted white and is for the county ticket, which ticket is on white paper. 3. The voter enters the room, tells the poll clerks his name; the clerks give him the two ballots to be voted and a stamp; (the stamp is a little stick with a rubber on the end of it;) the voter goes alone into ono of the booths with the two ballots and the stamp; in the bootli on a little sli if he will find an ink pad; (this is a clo 'i saturated with ink;) the voter touch.•< the ink pad with the stamp and t: a stamps his ballots. Let the ballots d before folding. 4. Astor : aping his ballots and the ink has beco, i * dry, the voter then folds each ballot st, irately before leaving the booth: he must fold them so that no one can see how lie lias voted, and so that the initials or first letters of the polls clerks’ names can be seen on the backs of the ballots; he then goes and gives the stamp back to the clerks, and hands the two ballots to the inspector; then he leaves the room. 5. After the voter comes out of the booth into the room he must tee careful not to let any one see the inside of his ballots; if he exposes his ballot so that it can be known how he votes, his ballot will be rejected. li. If the voter ran not read English, or is blind, or is physically unable to stamp his ballots, lie has a right to call on the poll clerks to stamp his ballots for him; this must be done in his presence and in the presence of both poll clerks. 7. The voter must vote the ballots given him by the poll clerks and none other. 8. The voter must not put any mark or sign on his ballots; if he does, his vote will not be counted. If by accident he blots his ballot in stamping or makes a mistake, lot him rqfcpru the ballot folded to the poll clerks and get another.

THE HOMESTEAD LABOR WAR.

An Indiana Workman Gives Some Inside History of the McKinley Hill. Mr. Janies P. Appleby, who was a delegate to the convention of the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers, which was recently held at 1 Pittsburg, said lie fully anticipated the trouble that has since taken place. He further said that when the McKinley bill was before congress, the Republican leaders induced the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers to go to Washington and work for the passage of the bill, with the guarantee : that if the bill was passed tlieir wages would never again be reduced and that j the mill owners would never ask a re- j dnetion. That the price of iron would be kept, by the provisions of the bill, at a sufficiently high figure to Warrant the payment of t’ ■ :’.e in force at that time. A committee was appointed by the association and the bill was passed. But the first time after the scale run out, the mill owners have demanded n reduction of from 20 to 00 per cent, in the wages of the iron workers. And still it is said by Republican papers that there is no politics in it. Mr. Appleby is also authority for the statement that on Monday after the scale had been agreed upon by the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers, Governor William McKinley, author of the bill tl.at bears liis name, was in Pittsburg in conference with the mill owners, but whether for or against the interests of the workmen it is not known. At any rate, only three or four mills out of sixty-two in the vicinity of Pittsburg signed the scale. These are matters of which Mr. Appleby says he knows what he is talking about, as he was at Pittsburg during the entire session of the association. Mr. Appleby works in the New Albany rail mill and is well informed on matters pertaining to liis calling. What do workingmen think of the of the Republican leaders? Do they believe that high tariff means high wages? Not much.—New Albany Public Press.

To conceal their purpose to secure protection for capital and slavery for wage earners, Carnegie and company cried in ’BB, “protection for American labor.”—Greencastle Democrat. The Republican campaign opened rather prematurely at Homestead, Pa. The number of American workingmen killed and wounded is not yet accurately known.—Madison Democrat. The administration should cancel all contracts with the Carnegie firm, but they dare not, for a big campaign donation would be wanting.—Connersville Examiner. To have their place in the mills which the profit of their labor built, filled with strangers, means not only the loss of their subsistence, but the loss of their little homes.—Benton Review. The situation at Homestead is not only a crushing indictment of the protective system, but it is a reflection upon nineteenth century civilization. —Jeffersonville National Democrat. And this is another of the direct results and beauties of “high protection.

STATE DEBT INTEREST.

Over Foot Millions Paid on ft rrjsgnt oi Republican Legislature. The Indianapolis Journal in a recent Issue said: If you have a neighbor who is inclined to doubt that Democracy is a tax, clip out this paragraph and show him the following figures, which represent the interest paid by the people of Indiana, during the past ten years, on money borrowed to meet current expenses: 1882 $280,886 24 1883 391,018 46 1884 285,114 9fl 1885 294,873 44 1886 .• 195,029 00 1887 439.494 58 1888 346,236 2S 1889 277,134 08 1890 274,074 68 1891 279,129 91 Total am’t paid in tei/Vears. $3,062,971 68 This is a shames ul hse Ml of Democratic mismanagement and the debt is still increasing. The above amounts represent the total interest paid each year on both the foreign and domestic debt and not “on money borrowed to meet current expenses.” ' The following table compiled from the reports of the auditor of state i§ authentic as any one taking the pains to investigate will find out. What does it show? It proves that the “interest paid by the people of Indiana during the last ten years, on money borrowed to meet current expenses” is not $3,062,971.68, but $844,563.96, as The Journal would make the credulous believe.

Interest on State Debts Since 1882. Foreign. Domestic. 1882 $46,579 25 $234,286 99 1883 156,729 19 234,286 99 1884 29,578 00 255,636 99 1885 47,838 45 247,036 99 1886 59,135 50 135,893 50 1887 64,334'55 875,255 48 1888 74,349 30 271,880 99 1889 95,549 49 181,613 64 1890 132,607 50 141,467 18 1891 137,862 73 141,467 18 Totals $844,563 96 $2,218,731 93 The large amount of interest paid on the foreign debt in 1882 is accounted for by the fact that during that year twenty-four old internal improvement bonds were paid with tlxe accumulated interest. This inte'est amounted to $110,149.92. These bonds had been in litigation a number of year 3. The reduction in interest on Democratic debt since 1889 is caused by the refunding of the school fund bonds at 3 per cent., effecting a saving in interest to the state of $117,136.99 per annum. The act authorizing this refunding was passed by the Democratic legislature of 1889. The whole domestic debt, with exception of $144,000, was created by Republican legislatures. In the report of State Auditor Carr for 1888, the following public debt statestatement is made: Debt Due by die State to Its Several Institutions. Five per cent, bond held by Purdue university tit Lafayette, Irul., due April 1. 1901 (authorized by act of The state university (Bloomington) bond in custody of treasurer of state, dated Oct. 1, 1885, bearing 5 per cent. , interest $60,000 00 The state university (Bloomington) bond in custody of treasurer of state, dated Feb. 15,1837, bearing 5 per cent. interest 60,000 00 The state university (Bloomington) bond in custody of treasurer of state, dated Sept. 1, 1887, bearing 5 per cent. Interest 24,000 00 Total $484,000 00 Debt Due by the State to Its School Fund, Which It is Proposed to llefuud. School fund bond No. I.issued .Tan. 1,1867, bearing 6 per cent, interest $709,024 85 School fund bond No. 2, issued Jan. 20, 1807, bearing 6 per cent, interest... 2,658,057 30 School fund bond No 3, issued . May 1, 1868, bearing 6 per cent, interest... 134,234 00 School fund bond No. 4, issued Jan. 20, 1871, bearing 0 per cent, interest ... 177,700 00 School fund bond No. 5, issued May 3, 1873, bearing 0 per cent, interest... 175,767 07 Total foreign debt $4,388,783 22 The legislature of 1881 which issued the Purdue university bonds was Republican in both branches. The state university bonds to the amount of $144,000 were authorized by Democratic legislatures. The university bonds cannot be regarded as a debt in the sense that the state borrowed money, for the}' were issued as a gift to the university. Even The Journal will not deny that the enormous debt of $3,904,783.22 on account of five school fund bonds was created by Republican legislatures. There was in the treasury when Morton became governor, nearly four million dollars belonging to tb; school fund, which had accumulated under Democratic administration through a sinking fund and the state bank. When the Democrats resumed the state government under Governor Hendricks there was nothing left of this fund. The money had been borrowed under Morton and Baker and turned to the current funds and as such was expended. The legislature, however, issued five school fund bonds to vl e, amount of $14,904,783.22 upon which “the ! people of Indiana during the last ton j years have paid” over two millon del- ■ lars. From the time they were issued, over . twenty years ago, until refunded by the

Democratic legislature ot 1889, the “people of Indiana” paid 6 per cent, on this Republican debt, amounting annually to $144,000, or over $4,000,000 since they were issued. The interest of this Republican debt was reduced from 6 to 3 per cent, by the Democratic legislature of 1889, by refunding it. Bonds were issued bearing 3 per cent., which sold in New York at a premium. With the proceeds the school fund bonds were cancelled and the money distributed among the counties to be loaned out at 6 per cent, in sums not exceeding $2,000. This debt was thus transferred from a domestic to a foreign debt. Just think of it! Over $4,000,000 in interest, which the people of Indiana have lmd to pay on a debt created by Republicans over twenty-five years ago. No wonder the state could not collect enough revenues to run the government without borrowing. State Debt. On Oct. 31, 1891, the entire debt of the state was $8,830,615.12, and that is the amount of the debt at the present time. In the public debt statements the debt is divided into foreign and domestic. The foreign debt is that owed by the state to the non-residents, and the domestic debt is that which the state owes to itself; such as the school fund debt, the debt due to the Purdue university, and the debt due to the permanent endowment fund of the state university. The legislature of 1889 authorized the refunding of the school fund debt, and that was done; and this part of the debt is now called in the public debt statement a part of the foreign debt of the state, but in considering state debt this should still be designated as part of the domestic debt, as the general fund of the state treasury received no benefit from these refunding operations. The state debt, therefore, at the present time, should be divided as follows: Foreign debt $4,441,615 12 Domestic debt 4,389,000 00 Tota l $8,830,615 12 On the 31st of October, 1882, the foreign and domestic debt of the state was as follows: Domestic debt $4,244,783 22 Foreign debt 631,825 12 T °tal ' $4,876,608 34 This shows that there has been an increase in the foreign debt of the state since Oct. 31, 1882, and up to the present time, of $3,809,790. Beginning with the legislature of 1883 large sums of money have been appropriated for erecting new buildings for benevolent purposes and for additions to the benevolent, penal and reformatory institutions (if the state that were in existence at that time. The following table will show the amounts appropriated by the legislatures of 1883, 1885, 1887 1889, 1891:

New insane hospitals at Evansville, Logansport and Richmond ... $1,401,722 66 bcliool, feeb’e-minded youth, Fort Wayne 314,911 00 boh hers and sailors’ orphans’ home, Knightstown 165,000 00 Central insane hospital, Indianapolis 114,500 00 Deaf and dumb institution, Indianapolis 67,500 Institute for blind, Jndianapo ' lis -; ; 55,000 00 heniale prison ami reformatory, Indianapolis 42 oqo 99 Reform school for boys, Plainfieltl 63,300 0C btate university, Bloomingbta'e normal school, Terre Haute 100 000 00 Pm due university, Lafayette State prison north, Michigan «ty... 43,340 00 State prison south, JeffersonSoldiers’ and sailors’ monument, Ind: napolis.. 230,000 00 New state house, Indianapolis. 834,130 00 , . $3,598,303 66 10 this amount should be added the amount paid on the state debt since 1882, viz.: twenty-four internal improvement bonds and interest on same, paid May 23, 1883 434 i 49 93 Five per cent, state stock certificates, anil interest on same, paid April 8,1891.... 20,855 63 Making a total of $3,752,809 21 To meet these extraordinary expenses it became necessary to increase the foreign debt of the state to its present amount. In additition to these extraordinary expenses the maintenance of the new and enlarged institutions of the state has largely increased the ordinary expenses of the state government, and there has been no increase in the rev. enues of the state from taxation during the period named. High taxes are like the high fences about the Homestead mills. Both serve the team of protection and alike, according to Republican doctrine, purport to regulate American wages.—Richmond Independent. The great Pittsburg riot is only a beginning of what this country will see if McKinleyism is continued and a force bill passed. This is a time when every American ought to consider carefully the needs of the hour.—Tell City News. Nothing can well be plainer than that this is not a high tariff year in the United States of America, but there are none so impervious to the doom awaiting ! them as is the partisan blinded by his i own prejudices.—Noblesville Democrat. The most imposing and impressive' Cleveland meetings of the campaign are now held daily and nightly by the thou- 1 sands of employes of Mr. Carnegie’s steel works near Pittsburg.—Washington Advertiser. Carnegie, the Pennsylvania iron baron, did not let quite enough time elapse between trying to cut down the wages of his workmen and cabling his congratulations to Harrison.—Ripley Journal. The Homestead trouble has already cost more money to the mill owners and operatives than the difference in wages contended for would have amounted to j in three years.—New Albany Ledger.
