SO much

is

one of oppo-

siiiMi to at hird term. Two months ago it was confldeaily asserted by his fxiexuk that General Grant would receive th^e endorsement of the State for a third term wiihoiit, the least difficulty. Subsequent events have proven that the assertion was. made without the least foundation in fact. —Etprt**.

Will the gentleman of the "miuced size'' just furnish the figures upon which he bases his conclusion. We are able 10 furnish a list of the counties of Illinois and the political standing of their dele gates, and the figures show that without counting Cook County, which gave Grant a plurality of 2,000 on the popular voteof that county about a week ago, Granthas 379 delegates against 214, which includes both Blaine and Washburae men.

This giva* Grant a majority of 73 with the entire vole of Cook County against him

Says iur "reduced size The Grant element in that county, -t-«-ing they were in a small minority, and unable lo control the Convention bolted and enacted the farce of holding a Con vention of their own and appointing dele gates to Springfield. They do not deny that the opposition to Grant in the county Convention was largely in the majority.

The figures would suit the peopU* a great deal betti-r than the mere statement of the "reduced size." (tranl's majority over Blaine in that county on the popular vote was more than M.000, and the plurality over Blaine and Wash burne was U.OOO, yet the "reduced size" cries out that Grant's opposition was large ly in the majority.

When the convention meets at Spring field, to morrow, there will be a wonder' fill cry from the Farwell Hall bummers of outraged liberty.

Grant will get .'Ml voten from Cook county, which will give him a majority iti the State Convention

of

140 votes, and when

the National Convention convenes at Chicago, he will have 42 more votes to add to the 'Ufl which he now has. giving him a majority over Blaine. Sherman, WashWurne and Kdmuuds, and a few votes to spare.

CONFUSED.

A certain Councilman informs us that he wtts approached Thursday and again yesterday and offered a bribe of $300 to vote for a certain gentleman for City At torney. The briber gave his promissory note "for the above amount which said Councilman holds for future use.—l\x

Our contemporary is confused. Proba bly it refers to an offer, which was indignantly spurned, of $2,000, made to cer tain Councilman if he would unite with the Republicans and give them cofitrol of that body. Such offer was made. It so happens that the City Attorney is elected for two years and the present incumbents term of office does not expire until next spring. The pros ent Council has the election of no such oflicer. (itizcite.

Trot him out, we want to see the man who offered a certain councilman $2000 to vote with the Republicans. We will give you money to produce the man we want to sec him we want his photograph we must look at him. Do please trot, him out.

THAT BRIBE.

Mr. Pat O'Sullivan called at this office and states that yesterday's issue does him injustice, and that he wants it distinctly understood that he was not drunk, and that lie knew just what he was doing in the "Harrison bribe matter," and that he knew his man, and as he was looking for a man to electioneer for Mr.JDunuigan. he says that he would have given $300 to elect Sir. Dunnlgan, and as Mr. Harrison told him that he thought that he could fix it for him, he expected him, Harrison, to attend to the preliminaries. Mr. O'Sullivan thinks that what ho did was perfectly legitimate, and that as Harrison was a Councilman and knew how the matter stood it wasn't his business to enquire how he would arrange it. O'Sullivan states, however, that as Mr. Dunnigau would have nothing to do with the matter the whole thing fell through with.

THK

Chinese have just cause for their

opinion of American honesty. A party of them attended Sunday school at Indian apolis, and one of them, named Box Sing, was robbed of $65. He expressed himself as follows: "Bad Melican man. He no go to Sunday school. Me no get money back. Me work hard, get more money. Me know better now no leave money for bad Melican man any mom"

C&BflBtwKix is spoken of as the prob able pres.Wing officer at Chicago. Senator Conkling will present the name of General Grant. General Garfield the name of Secretary Sherman, and Colonel Bob Ingersoll, if he is a member of the* con vention, the nsme of Senator Blaine.

It isn't every Council that can have a Tlarri win

A Iteautiful thought is suggested in the K*r0»: "Angels in the grave will not question thee as to the amount of money thou hast left behind thee, but what good deeds thou hast done while in the world to entitle thee to a seat among the MestL

SPRING GREETING.

Spring has come, and considerably ahead of its usual time. Yet we hnve anticipated the coming, and are pleased to offer our customers and friends such a line of Clothing aud Furnishings us has been rarely if ever seen in this market. Our shelves and counters are full of beautiful goods, elegant in style, select in materials, and perfect in workmanship. Our ample capital and large resources have never availed us greater advantage in man ufacturing clothing than at the present time, and we propose to give our customers all the benefit from it that is possible.

Having preconceived the idea of a heavy advance in wool' ens, we bought largely of staples before the advance, and to day we are able to offer to our customers these woolens manufac tured into cloth at but a slight advance over last year's prices, and at least 20 per cent, less than other dealers can buy the same in New York.

Since occupying our present room our business has so vastly increased that we have been compelled to enlarge our already spacious room, that we may the better accommodate our daily increasing trade. The additions made are in the rear of our present room, and will be used exclusively as our Boys' aud Children's Department, being neatly carpeted and furnished with chairs, sofas, tables, mirrors, etc.

We have never been fixed so well as now to add to the comforts and wants of our customers. In our selections of cloth, and manufacture of Boys' and Chilldren's clothing, wo certainly never had such an array of beauty in design of cloth and makeup in style as we arc able to present, to the citizens of Terre llaute and vicinity this 8pring.

While others have croaked we have worked, and that our work has been effective, not only for our own benefit but for the good of the people at largo, is attested by the generous patronage wc have been accorded. Be assured it is cheering to receive such tokens of appreciation, and we shall not remit our efforts to merit them hereafter. We have no occasion to disparage our neighbors, and have no complaints to offer of honorable and fair competition. We transact our business on strictly business principles buy in large quantities such goods as we do not manufacture at our own mills manufacture our own clothing sell to consumers at tho same price that the New York Jobber charges the ordinary merchant. sell for cash only, and thereby save all loss from bad debts mark our goods in plain figures and never deviate therefrom have spacious store-rooms and gentlcmonly salesmen with whom it is a pleasure to deal, and our guarantee is absolute and unqualified.

We shall be pleased to serve you. A personal visit will afford you more satisfaction than what we can say here, and we would gladly welcome you in our new quarters.
