DON’T MOVE NOW.

Or You Will Aid the Republicans at the Election. e It has grown to be a basic principle of the Republican faith that the Democrats cannot be beaten in Indiana except by some sharp practice by trickery, fraud or corruption. And Republicans have much reason for the faith that is in them. Not in a generation have they carried Indiana without the use of boodle or without some chicanery. That’s why they so bitterly opposed the Australian ballot law and the antibribery laws. They didn’t want to forgo the advantage they possessed under the old law, when they could buy the floaters. They sigh when they think of the ogood old times;” the times when, in 1880, Dorsey and Brady and Arthur “soaped” the state with “crisp $2 bills” and of 1888 when Dudley organized his “blocks-of-flve in charge of trusted inen with the necessary funds" supplied by Wanamaker and Pullman. Though they announced in the early part of the campaign that they had a walkover in Indiana this fall, they evidently didn’t believe so; for the canvass hadn’t fairly opened before a scheme was hatched for the indirect purchase of voters. Word has been sent out to all of Dudley’s old lieutenants and the plan is already in operation. Jt is a very simple but very inBidiaus scheme and is being worked “on the dead quiet” wherever possible. The purchase of voters this year is to be merely a purchase to make Democrats lose their votes and is more in the nature of a confidence game than anything else. It doesn’t deal so much with the floaters as with honest but unsuspecting Democrats, who would never think of selling out knowingly. The election law requires that a voter shall reside six months in the state,, (If)days in the township and 30 saya 'in the precinct in which h?. votes. Taking advantage of th# provisions of the law the Republicans in the past 30 days have been busily engaged in the attempt to induce Democrats to change their residence from one township to another, This work has so far been chiefly eopfiped to the country districts, bu.t fropr now on work will mostly be W the cities and towns, wfieih ¥i ift necessary only to change cne precinct to another, often merely across a street, in order to yge. a wfe. AU sorts of inducements are offered Democrats to move. Low rents, permanent work and other considerations are given and before they realize it many Democrats voluntarily disfranchise themselves.

The scheme is an adroit 9DO and is likely to prove highly successful if not headed off. papers and Democratic cojimuitteemen should put the p.u,b.l|ic an guard. Every voter’s attention should be called to the fact that u he moves from one precinct to another after Oct. she will lose his vote. He should steadfastly refuse to listen to any argument favoring removal after that date, for it is nothing more, than a scheme to prevent Democrats from voting.

Bear It In Mind.

Just in mind as you go along that payment of $379,000 of Indiana state bends maturing April 1 makes a total reduction of state debt since last April of $710,000, an annual interest saving of $21,300. And this must be set down to. the credit of the present Democratic and that, top, notwithstanding the fact that the levy for state purposes has been reduced.—Angola Herald,.

A Raise In Wages.

Every reduction in the price of what any one has to buy is an increase in the wages of the buyer. By the repeal of Major McKinley’s monstrosity the prices qf hundreds of necessities of life are reduced. And every such reduction is a raise in the wages and earnings of every man, woman and child ip, the land.—

Long Since Decided.

Mr. Charles W, Fairbanks is again giving his attention to the "infamous gerrymander,” the chief “infamy” of which has been to prevent Mr. Fairhanks buying a seat in the United States senate. The courts and the people have Ipng since decided against Mr. Fairbanks.—Kokomo Dispatch.

RENSSELAEB JASfEIi COUNTf. INDIANA; FRIDAY OCTOBER 12 1894

THE CORRECT SAMPLE BALLOT.

Point. That Every Voter Should Bear In Mind. 1. Get your ballots of the polling clerk in the election room. No other ballots are permitted to be used. 2. Stamp within the large square containing the rooster and nowhere else.

The stamp must be placed within or on the square or the ballot is void and cannot be counted. Do not stamp elsewhere on the ticket if you stamp within the square at the head of the ticket. 3. Do not mutilate your ballot, or mark it either by scratching a name off or writing one on, or in any other way, except by stamping on the square as before mentioned. Otherwise the ballot will not be counted. 4. After stamping your ballots first see that the ink from the stamp is thoroughly dried; then fold them separately so that the face of them cannot be seen and so that the initial letters of the names of the polling clerks on the backs thereof can be seen. Then hand your ballots to the inspector, the stamp to the polling clerk and leave the room. IL If you are physically unable to Stamp your ballots, or cannot read English, so inform the polling clerks and tell them how you wish to vote and they will stamp your ballots for you. But the voter and clerks must not permit any other person to hear or see how the ballots are stamped. 6. If you should accidentally or bymistake deface, mutilate or spoil your ballot return it to the poll clerks and get a new one.

Thinks the State Committee Is Trying to Dump Him. Reports from all the meetings throughout the state are furnishing the Democrats much encouragement. The interest in the Democratic meetings is steadily increasing, and the mere announcement of a meeting is sufficient to bring out a crowd. The Republican meetings, on the contrary, are not so well attended as earlier in the campaign. Railroad Attorney Fairbanks has recently been greeted by empty benches at Rushville and other poinis, and Mr. Ketcham, the candidate lor attorney general, has had such small audiences that his friends are accusing the state central committee of throwing cold water on his campaign. Ketcham’s nomination was very distasteful to the central committee and to Harrison and Ketcham knows it. Naturally he feels that they are working against him secretly to prevent him becoming too prominent in the state. It is requiring the utmost efforts of the "conciliators” to prevent an open rupture between Ketcham and the committee.

HARRISON VS. M’KINLEY

The Ohioan Makes the ex-President Decidedly Nervous. The presidential contest of 1896 got all mixed up with the recent McKinley demonstration in Indianapolis. At fint,’ it will be remembered, Harrison announced that “an important law case in New York” would prevent his attendance at the meeting. This raised all manner of a rumpus in the camp of the faithful. The McKinley people who, hy the way, are very strong in Indiana, raised an awful row. They declared in a way that made perfectly clear the fact that they meant it, that if Harrison attempted thus to snub his great rival and throw cold water on the demonstration in his honor they would immediately proceed to lay for the scalp of the aforesaid Ben Harrison. Party leaders labored with the ex-pr isident to induce him to alter his determination. but to little avail. Finally Dan Ransdell, the old head of the “Slick Six,” took the matter in hand; Nobody

ever gets very close to Ben Harrison, but Ransdell gets closer than anybody else. Riuisdell helped Dudley always in managing Indiana campaigns, according to approved Dudley and “Slick Six” methods, and Harrison has great confidence in him. Ransdoll used arguments that the other mediators hadn’t thought of. Mr. Harrison was told very plainly that unless he appeared at the meeting McKinley would bo given a great boom for the Indiana delegation to the next national convention; that if he (Harrison) consented to preside at the McKinley meeting, he instead of McKinley would get the demonstration and MoKinley, seeing this, would cease his attempt to capture the Indiana vote in the next convention. This tickled Harrison’s vanity and the * ‘importance” suddenly evaporated from that New York law case. And Harrison presided. But a bitter disappointment awaited him. The applause which greeted him when he took the chair was brief and formal. He spoke only a few minutes, but his audience was restless and cold; it smiled half-heartedly at his alleged jokes and passed by unnoticed what he meant for his telling points. There was a little applause at the close of the ex-president’s speech, but it had the earmarks of being merely an expression of relief that the speech was done and that the real treat of the day was at hand. But when McKinley stepped forward the audience went wild with enthusiasm. The ex-president nestled nervously in his chair and his ashen face grew paler as if he were suffering from a colic. It was the first time that his intense egotism had permitted him to realize the fact that he was no longer the idol of the Republicans of Indiana. When Ransdell saw the miscarriage of his plans he quietly sneaked out the back door and has studiously avoided a meeting with Harrison ever since. Harrison is sulky and morose, and an air of general discomfort has characterized the Republican committeeroomsall week.

THE M’KINLEY MEETING.

A Good Deal of a Fizzle When Everything la Considered. Republicans at the state' capital are not half so well pleased with the McKinley meeting of Tuesday as they might have been. In fact, they may be described in the language of the Bowery as being “dead sore.” There is much reason for their discomfort, too. In the first place, all things considered, the meeting waa not a howling success, though McKinley’s speech was one long howl of the calamity variety. For no political meeting ever held in the state were greater efforts made to get out a crowd. Low excursion rates were secured on all the railroads and members of clubs were carried free at the expense of the committee in order to make a showing. Bands were hired and every effort made to drum up enthusiasm. After these herculean efforts it was small subject for surprise that the Republican managers were disgusted at the small turnout. There were little "pointers” in the failure, too, which had a very disquieting effect on Republican nerves. Chief among these was the failure to work up any enthusiasm in those sections of the state where the old Gresham element is most powerful. Take Fort Wayne for example. Special efforts were made to get a crowd from that point. The best band in the city was hired and transportation waa offered all who would come to Indianapolis. But when the Fort Wayne delegation got off the cars it was found that just 18 people lined up behind the band of 20 pieces. The manufacturing towns of the gas belt also failed to contribute the expected number of enthusiasts and altogether the much heralded "demonstration” came very near proving a fizzle.

The Benefit Universal.

While it is true that 5,000 windowglass workers will have to struggle along under the new tariff law making perhaps not more than S2OO to S3OO per month, 70,000,000 people will get the benefit of cheaper windowglass.—Anderson Democrat.

Whisky Trust Knocked Out.

The new tariff bill, far from being in the interest of the whisky trust, is rapidly knocking the bottom out of that giant corporation. Shares ot whisky trust stock are now quoted lower than they were evpr kqown before.

AN INSULT TO CLEVELAND.

Disgraceful Work at a Republican Campaign Meeting. The President’s Portrait Trodden Under Foot, While the Republican Audience Cheers the Act. Democrats of Blackford County Roused to Indignation by the Shameful Occurrence—They Are Everywhere Putting Up the Portraits of the Nation’s President and Defying the Republicans to Tear Them Down. Hartford City, Oct. 2.—[Special.]— The Democrats of Blackford county are highly indignant over the shameful act of certain Republicans one night last week in showing the most malicious and insolent disrepect to the president of the United States. The act which has so aroused popular disapproval among Democrats and respectable Republicans ■hows that the same bitter spirit actuates the g. o. p. as inspired it in 1892 when young Allison was murdered at Plainfield, Hendricks county, because he had dared to act as captain of a Democratic marching club. A fat faced, curly-headed man, with a knowing look and a well developed opinion of his oratorical powers was in town Saturday. He was sent here by the Western Telephone Construction company of Chicago to look after an exchange which parties have endeavored to project. He learned that Captain W. R. Myers was to speak in this city that afternoon and had the word started that Mr. Stitch, for this was his name, "the McKinley of Chicago,” was here ready to answer Myers’ argument. Bills were circulated during the Myers meeting making this announcement and the feeble imitation of McKinley opened his mud batteries in the courtroom in tha evening. Before he commenced speaking an incident happened which disgusted the Democratic portion of the audience. Thomas Pieroe, the Randolph county product, who made his debut here in a political speech, remembered as being heavily laden with "rebel bullets” and other expressions in referring to the Democratic party, again displayed his ears. Cleveland’s portrait, which hung on the wall during Myers’ speech, had not been taken down, the committeeman forgetting it. Pierce espied it, and like an enraged bull taunted by a red flfig, he jerked the portrait down and flung it to the floor admidst the cheers of the Republicans present. The news of the dastardly act rapidly spread throughout Blackford county and quite naturally aroused the indignation of Democrats and the decent element of the Republican party. The Democrats at once began putting up pictures of President Cleveland everywhere and defying Republicans to tear them down. A very bitter feeling has been aroused by this incident and if the Republicans attempt to tear down any more Cleveland pictures the attempt will be stoutly resisted.

TO ELECT BEN HARRISON.

Republican Plan to Forestall tha Beault In 1890. While the Republicans are "not saying a word” about 1896 this fall there is every reason to believe that they regard the fight of this year as more likely to determine the presidential result than that of two years hence. In fact they are laying the ropes to that end. The national Republican committee, while apparently remaining quiescent in the present campaign, is in reality directing every detail. It is not paying much attention to the election of state tickets but is looking after the congressional delegations from every state. The idea is that in 1896 no candidate is likely to have a majority in the electoral college and that the election of president and vice-president will be thrown into the house. Orders have been sent out to the Indiana committee that at least seven representatives of the next house must be Republicans—a majority of thedelegar tion. In both Indiana and Illinois the Republicans will make a tremendous effort to elect a majority of the representatives to congress. The Republicans are certain of electing a majority of representatives in 15 states, viz: Maine, Oregon and Vermont (already elected), New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota, lowa and Washington. They have a strong pull in New Jersey. If the Republicans should carry the majority of the members of Connecticut, New York, Indiana, Illinois and New Jersey they would need four more states to give them a clear field in the house if the election of president is to be decided there. They would have Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, tfew Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Montana, Idaho, California, Nevada and several others to draw upon, and they figure that they can easily capture the four necessary states. In view of these things the importance to Indiana Democrats of voting for their congressmen cannot be overstated. By voting for a Republican or Populist candidate for congressman this fall they are directly voting to put Ben Harrison back in the white house in 1897. The presidential fight is now on and Democrats in Indiana should not lose sight of that fact for a moment.

There It Goes.

Under the McKinley law the tax laid went into the pockets of the sugar trust, while under the present law it goes into the treasury of the United States.— Muncie Herald.

WITH INDIANA ORATORS.

Ptthy, PertlMnt Point* by Democratic Speaker*. If there is anything it thia world that is settled forever it is that a high protective tariff for the purposes of protecting classes can never again prevail in America.—Charles L. Jewett. In all the great traits of character, in all the elements of manhood of the world’s famous people, our president is the greatest exponent of manhood in the world today.—John Gil Shanklin. If you will take the statutes of our state and canvass them as I have done you will And that every law in existence today upon the subject of labor was enacted by Democratic legislatures.— George W. Cooper. I have that confidence in the intelligence and justice of our people, that they will again confide the destiny of their state into the hands of a party that has been the party of progress and reform in Indiana and that has proven it can be trusted.—Claude Matthews. There is a useful and delightful destiny connected with the Democracy. The good angel of destiny has saved our party through a hundred years. Our party has been saved that the masses of our people may prosper, and that the cause of the common people may triumph.—E. V Brookshire. The Republican party in power is a pestilence. In Harrison's administration there was one long, ceaseless riot in the expenditure of the people's money. The treasury was looted and a “billiondollar congress,’’ under the leadership of Thomas B. Reed, saddled upon a taxburdened land obligations which constituted a monumental infamy.—W. R. Myers. While the continued and enlarged use of silver as a money metal is demanded by every true bimetallist, it is in the in terest of tariff reform and freer trade with all the commercial nations of the world that we should have a dollar, in substance and in fact, that will be ao cepted as such by all the people with whom we trade. Any other policy would be suicidal, and the bimetallist only cuts his throat with a silver knife. —State Senator R. F. Stuart.

When the Pinkerton detectives, two years ago, invaded Pennsylvania under the employment of Carnegie & Frick to suppress the demands of labor and shocked the conscience of the nation with their bloody deeds the workingmen of Indiana rejoiced that by reason of Democratic legislation the importation of foreign assassins to crush out their demands in their state was made impossible. The danger had been foreseen and long before forestalled —Senator Kern. It somehow turns out this year that the men whom our Populist friends have nominated for congress in this state are men who have all their lives held office, or all their lives have wanted to hold office, by the favor of one or the other of the old parties, and their fierce denunciation of their former friends is tainted by the suspicion that these candidates might still be under political bondage had the supply of offices or Sromisos held out.—Congressman Molagny Thus during the four years of the Harrison administration the diminution of the public revenues reached the figure of $58,000,000. And here we have a comparison which teaches a lesson: An increase of the revenues under a Democratic administration of $50,000,000 and a decrease under the administration ot the Republican party of $58,000,000. Here is a showing of expenditures during the four years of Republican administration under Mr. Harrison: The first year, $418,000,000; the second year, $855,000,000; the third year, $845,000,000, and the last year, $378,000,000. The surplus during the first year of the Harrison administration fell to $87,000,000; the third year to $17,000,000, and ths last year to $2,000,000. —Congressman Bynum

History Repeats Itself.

History repeats itself. After one or two encounters with ex-Governor Gray, when both were holding joint political discussions, Major Calkins found it convenient to fail in health. Mr. Owen succumbed after one engagement with his Democratic opponent, Mr. Myers. Merely a coincidence, of course. Fort Wayne Journal.

Just Getting a Taste.

The Democratic boom is fairly on and will sweep the country in November. This may be thought an optimistic view now, but it will be verified. The people are just getting a taste of free trade and the prosperity which is already following. Revolutions never go backward. —Frankfort Crescent.
