■‘A FIRM ADHERENCE TO CORRECT PRINCIPLES.”
Democratic Conventions. At a meeting of the Democratic State Central Committee, held at Indianapolis, January 15th, 1896, it was recommended that the democrats meet in their respectiveorecincts in the several counties of the state, February 15, 1896, at 1 o’clock, p. m. for the .purpose of electing a member of the central committee for each voting precinct of the county. And the members so elected for Jasper county to meet in Rensselaer, on Saturday, February 29th, 1896, at;l o’clock p. m. for the purpose of organizing said committee by the elec-, tion of a Chairman, a Secretary, and a Treasurer.

In the United States Senate, Jan. 28, ’96: Mr. Tubpie. I present a p t'tion, in the ioim of resolutions adopted at a meetingof local churches of Rensselaer, Ind., 1 eld in Trinity Methodist Episco al Church January ,9, 1896. expressing sympathy for the suffering people of Aimema and remonstrating against their further oppression. The petitioners respectfully urge our Government to make every pos sible effort to induce the Governments of Christendom to rousej themselves from tbetr apathy and put an end to this intolerable state of ass drs, which thr ateiis with extermination thousands and thousands of ourfellow-Christians, and urging also upon our Government to do everything in its t ower to preserve the fruits of American missionary toil and expressing their ardent sympat y with the unuttura ble sufferings of th s persecuted race; and calliug upon all the peoples"of Christendom to insist that these unutterable sufferings shall cease. Mr. President, this petition comes from a very rcspectaole source in Indiana, and I should like to address the Senate very briefly on the subject. Armenia is an oasis of Christian faith places in a desert of unbelief. It is the largest body of Christianshaving any local Oi racial unity within the limits of the Ottoman Empire. Its inhabitants had been long subject to the Turks before the Sublime Porte was located at Constantinople. They have been faithful subjects of that Empire. They h ive paid their treasure in its support. They have furnished the blood and life of their sons, their fatheis, and their brethieu for th< defense of the Empire against foreign invasien. They were not charged in the recet t calamities which have befalen them with any disloyalty to the Turkish Government They were charged with n > revolt, with no attempt at treason or rebellion They were charged with nodi tobedienceof any law or ordinance of the Empire. They were charged only with being Christians. They were charged, they were seized, they were condemned, th y were executed, under circumstances of indescribable atrocity, as Christians. Their only crime was that they persisted in exercising that right to w rship God according to the dictates of their own conscience, a right, as has bee., said, guaranteed to them by the treaty of Berlin, but a right given, granted, to them and all mankind by a power greai er than either of those of the signatories to that instiument the Divine Creator of the universe. Sir, I think ut this juncture the time approaches when there ought to be express advices, official notifications (if that be the morii courtly phrase) given to the Government of Turkey—to the Turkish Government and to the Mohammeaau Church - that there has been a great and fatal decadence of that power in the last three centuries. The 'Turkish Government is recognized and established; but h w? By reason of its own strength or merit? Not for a d y. It is suppoi ted and only maintained by|those international jealousit s wrdeh cluster aroun i the transatlantic segment of the Monroe doctrine called, in ail the waters of the Mediterranean, the

balance of power in Enrope, forbidding the acquisition of farther territory in Europe by any of the great powerfl an dangerous to the peace and safety of others. It has long since ceised to be a self. existant and self-suppoi ting monarchy or empire. T’;e Ottoman Church and the Empire ought both to be notified that they arc no L nger a power to persecute, that they can no longer proselytize with the sword, that they must erase from the book of discipline and practice of the Mohammadan Church those precepts which make use of arson and muider as means of suppressing the Christian faith. We have mi de a notification, I would have with the word already sent the blow to follow it. I would have the message on the wings of lightning sent aqd the shot to follow it. What a shot that would be crashing into the grand seraglio, traversing the waters of the Golden Horn, to avenge the Christian life and Christian faith of the subjects of that Empire. I know that this fiu t of the groat decadence of the Ottoman power is well known to the grand vizier and to the chiefs, the aivisers, of the Sublime Porte us it is to any member of this body, but the great bulk of the citizens of that Empire do not knowit. The grand vizier is informed of it. I would have the slave of the grand vizier know it and feel it, I would hove the teachers in the schorls of the Mussulman and in the mosque know it and realize it. I would ave the muezzin on tte minaret know t and prodaim it to tue fait fill as they .re gathered in t e mosques for their devotons. Sxc. ritn ies g th' state of the Caliph in Bag a t was very uillerent from hit m>w exi ting on the Bosphorus. He reigned supreme in ell the great countries of southern Asi i. His lieutenant ruled with more than regal magnificence Egypt and northern Afric i. Spain itself vias, as it was said, the second garden of Mohammed, and hundreds of thousands of armed Mussulmans met the united aimies of Christian Europe to contend north of the Pyranees—nortu oi that great mountain range—as o which should have the primacy and supremacy in .hatquar er of the globe. All this has passed, never to return I am not aware, sir, what particular prerogative and privileges are due to iw tional infirmity, to a decaying power, or to a moribund sovereignty, but if there be any such due andlowing, and if it be still asked upon our part that we should allow this onstrous, bloody game as the mere play and pastime of the old age and decrepit u e of the Ottoman Empire, I for one am in favor of giving the ick man of the Bosphorus a coup de grace and ending his 1 fe and ex stance by dissolution and destruction. I have read, Mr. President, in some story of these blood-staii ed relations, of a Kurd er Turk, armed, engaged in the massacre of the Arminian villagers, hearing from the boys and > iris w o were being slain by his hand, hearing f.om the wives and mothers who were being hurried to dishonor and death, the same cry, the same supplier ion,and I have read that thi fiend turned to tne demons who were his comrades in this work of bipod and asked in a tone of derision, “Who is Jesus of Nazareth. that these penpie pray to Him?’’ Sir it is time that these murderers and assassins • v 'ould know who He was tuat was born into the world at Bethlehem and roared at Nazareth; that they and t eir masters should learn also that when that Divine Ruler returns t vax the reprobateness hud wickedness of the world and to punish such wretches as these, He brings with Him n: t peace but a sword. It may be, sir that we are destined to reorganize the Crusaues of eight and nine centuries ago. It may be that we flhall send again around the summons of the fiery cross upon a greatly lengthened circuit. It may be that we shall be called upon to effect the final deliverance of the Holy epulchre and of all those who revere its memories in every clime, under every sky, In such a warfare, ns. in tne peace which would foliowit, one touch of Christ wo d make the whole world kin.

The Business Man’s Statement. LaFayette, Ind., May 2, 1894. Lyon Medicine Co., Indianapolis, Ind.: Gentlemen—lt is with pleasure that I can conscientiously say a good word for LYON’S SEVEN WONDERS. Formore than a year I was troubled with indigestion and stomach disorders. Various remedies which I tried gave me no relief, until one day last summer I was told by a brother drummer of the virtues of LYON’S SEVEN WONDERS. I concluded to try it, and am happy to say one box, costing only one dollar, entirely cured me, To those who sutler as I did I would strongly advise them to use LYON’S SEVEN WONDERS. Yours truly, John R. Spencer, State Agent Royal Baking Powder Company.
Curious, isn’t it, that a government loan, not distinctly popular, and placed at prices that mean barely 3 per cent interest, should have been subscribed five times over by the people of a country “beggard by a democratic tariff.’’
Ourloufl Cases of Cruelty. A great deal of work has been done this year by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Nearly 8,000 cases of cruelty have been Investigated by its agents. Although many were settled without prosecution, anil many were found to have been misrepresented, 297 were prosecuted, and In some eases quite heavy penalties were necessary. Ono man, who drove his horse to death, was sent to Jail for six months. For overdriving two other men wore sentenced to three and four months, respectively. As usual, there were a number of convictions for beating and kicking animals, one man being so gratuitously brutal as to beat a gray squirrel. Another man, while drunk, bit three Inches off the tall of a cat It cost him an inch. Two Frenchmen were fined $5 each for exhibiting a bear. The animal wm confiscated and killed, so that there will be no more cruelties practiced on that bear at any rate. A butcher was fined .$lO for hanging up a steer before slaughtering him. Two men, while drunk, attempted to kill a hog with an ax. They mangled blip terrtbly, and were each given ten months In the House of Corr<>ctlon. Two cases of docking horses’t tails cost the offencV era SIOO each.—Boston Transcript. That which scemeth most casual and Subject to fortune,, Is yet disposed by the ordinance of Heaven. There are people who seem to think that God only expects them to keep the Ten Commandments on Sunday. It is bad reasoning which builds up a theory of life on the narrow ledge of a passing human mood, and falls to take In the whole roi» -< life. FAMOUS NICKNAMES. Frederick the Great was called Der Alto Fritz by his soldiers, the Philosopher of Sans Soucl by his friends, and the Monomaniac by his enemies. Thomas Hobbes, the philosopher, was called the Bear, on account of Ids ferocious manner and his habit of swearing on even the smallest provocation. David Garrick was the Stage Atlas, the English Roscius, Little Davy, the Proteus of the Stage and the Vain Tyrant, from his stage skill and presence. Goethe, among many other nicknames, was the Mun of Many Medals, In allusion to the decorations and orders bestowed upon him by various Kings and Princes. Jean Sebastian Bach was called Father of Modern Plano Music because his writings were largely for the piano, and he was the first to use the thumb In fingering. Gen. Grant was called Old Three Stars, in allusion to his symbols of rank; also, Uncle Sam Grant, Unconditional Surrender, United States, and United We Stand Grant.
Alexander the Great was denominated Macedonia’! Madman, because of his rashness. He was ever ready to attack, and disparity of numbers maao no difference with him. John Adams was called the Colossus of Independence, because of his prominence In the debates and proceedings of the Continental Congress and Constitutional Convention. ( Lakman, an Arabian prilosopher, was called the Aesop of Arabia. He was a slave, ugly and deformed, but famous for his fables and wisdom. He is mentioned In the Koran. Disraeli was nicknamed Dizzy, from a contraction of his name; the Gay Lothario of Politics, from his facility in adapting himself to circumstances, and Vivian Grey from one of hl** novels. —; •» „ To represent us in cities and towns, soliciting orders for oui “ ant high grade and complete Inn A Few o£ Ornamental Shrubs, Trees, u„.. .Hardy Roses, etc. Also, men cll ito werk country trade on sale of our famous Northern Grown Seep PoTAToh, and full hue Nursery Stock,— Apply at once, stating age.
