THE fellow who wrote

1'A

Threatened

Peril'- in this morning's Express might make a good fog horn but not a statesman.

THE gentleman who wrote the "leader" in the reduced size, this morning, knows more about Horticulture than statesmanship. ________________________

THE writer of "A threatened peril" is going to Chicago to present his little list of anti-Grant men, from the ague belt." _______________________

THE Grant men will abide by tne just judgment of the delegates at Chicago. Will the editor of the Express and Gen. Hascall do the same?

How many of the Republicans who say they won't for Grant il he is nominated have said the same thing the last twelve years if their pet candidate was not nominated?

WE heard a man, who pretends to be a Republican, say, yesterday, that he would vote for Bayard, it ho was nominated, before he would vote for Grant. He will swell the anti-Grant mob at Chicago.

,.r.. -r- "TUT

THERE are thousands of strong Grant men in this Congressional. District, yet a prominent Congressional candidate says the mass of Republicans are opposed to Graut's nomiuation. There will be a few opposed to the nomination of this Congressional aspirant wheu the time comes.

CAN Republicans in such a contest as this take the advice of nten who bolt every time their pet candidate is not nominated. Wo say not much—bolter—stand back let us make the nomination and then see if you are a Republican, or a Demo--at.

GEX. Mu,o S. IIASCALI,, who writes a card informing the Republicans their duty what to do iu this campaign, is the same man who worked baud in hand with a lot of Bolters in 1872 to defeat the Republican County. Congressional, State and National ticket. He worked in 1872 at the dictation of the Chicago Tribttrw, New York Tribun* and Springfield Republican. This year he will work at the dictation of the Cincinnati Cinmnercial. Chicago Tribitx* and Stoat* Ztitung—the last but not the least, as it is owned and controlled by Herring, of Whiskey Ring fame.

WEarehappy to be able to announce that the "manager" of the "reduced size" will start for his home in Evansviile in the morning, and after consulting with his friends titer?, will go direct to Chicago and take such steps as will advance the interest of the city where he lives, where all his property is located. This city can expect but little from p. man Who

has

interest with us, and does not live here.

OTTB1HTKNT10H8.

We will start to Chicago Monday morning, and while there will keep the readers of the NEWS fully advised by telegraph of all important occurrences, which from day to day happen at that important political center. We will spare no pains or expense to accomplish this fully and completely. After the nomination is made, and the Republican candidate is properly, and in accordance with the usages of the party, placed before the people, we will return home and advocate the election of that candidate. Though the Convention may not select our first choice, still the choice of that Convention shall be our choice. We propose to be no stumblingblock in the way of our party's success in the*great campaign of 1880.

In a few days after the action of the Chicago Convention we propose to enlarge the NEWS to a size commensurate with the demands necessary to give our readers, from day to dtey, all important items of political interest. While we propose to do this, the weekly price of the NEWS will remain at ten cents. We will enter, heart and soul, into the active business of the campaign. We will give special attention to the political condition and surroundings of this City, County and State. Living here—and this being our home—where all that we have is located, and where all that we hope for must start, we have more identity of interest in Terre Haute than anywhere else, and feel more interest in the prosperity of this people, than of any other community.

We will endeavor to extend our circulation, at 10 cents per week, so that the NEWS will be the most desirable medium for advertising in this city, and making our rates reasonable, we flatter ourself that our patronage will be correspondingly increased. While others may reduce their size as evidence of prosperity, we will increase ours.

With the above intentions, we will, in a few days, give to the people of Terre Haute, the cheapest and most wide awake paper ever published in this city.

JUDGING from the "leader" of our "reduced size" this morning, it seems that the writer of that article is preparing for the insane asylnm. He says there is a feeling among the Republicans in the Northern Republican States that is unalterably opposed to the nomination of Gen. Grant for President. He says, "No prominent advocate of Gen. Grant's nomination that we have heard of has controverted this fact or can do so.", The gentleman has not heard from New York, Pennsylvania and Illinois. Look at the FarWell Hall fellows who created such a riot in Cook county, Illinois, when the popular vote showed Grant with a majority of more than 3,000? It is true that some opposition exists to Gen. Grant, not particularly to him. but to the third term principle but if the gentleman of the reduced size will cast his mind's eye on the political field he will find that there is as great a cry against each ou,e of the other candidates as there can possibly be against Gen. Grant. Mr. Blaine said in his speech in Chicago, Oct. 15, 1872: V" Now,my friends, I don't stand up here tS defend the administration of General

Grant. General Grant's administration points to its facts and to its acts and not to its professions. It points you to the fOUI- years of magnificent prosperity it. points you to the peace and prosperity abroad, and to peace with all the nations of the earth it points you to a higher Standard of diplomacy than has ever been known, with more brilliant results than with the cannon and the sword it points you to a domestic policy and a foreign policy animated by the highest Christian principle known to men it points you, in Other words, to a model of an American administration." Grant's former administration points to a higher standerd of diplomacy than has ever been known. It points to a model of an American administration, according to Blaine: But our "reduced size" says, "It is the inexpediency of such a nomiuation that we object to there is no possible excuse for it when the party has scoros of more available men from whom to choose." The gentleman of the "reduced size" and Mr. Blaine possibly differ as to the Executive ability of Gen. Grant.

The idea of Gen. Grant's nomination hazaniing the ascendency of the Republican party is too wishy-washy to talk about let us talk on these matters with some sense. It does not make any difEerer.ce to us whether Gen. Milo S. Hascall is a candidate for Auditor of State or not, the "reduced size's" little boom for "Milo" has nothing to do with the nomination of Grant next week. Men who talk about not voting for Grant are generally men who have political sore heads. We think, as our "reduced size," that all influential Republicans should go to Chicago and see for themselves whether or not Grant is the choice of the people.

THE Senate yesterday confirmed the nomination of of ex postmaster General Key, as Cnitcd States District Judge for Eastern Tennessee, The nomination of Horace MaynanL now Minister to Turkey. to succeed Key as Postmaster General. and of General Longstreet, to take Maynard's place at Constantinople, were laid ovfer. There will be considerable opposition, alt it is understood, to the latter two nominations, but it Is believed both will be confirmed.—InterOcean,

-I''

ALL the talk about a Grant Club in Terre Haute don't alter the fact that there is no such organization in this "city and never has been. At a political gathering preceding the city election in the Spring of 1879, a motion was made to appoint a cammittee to draft a plan of organization The committee was appointed and that was the last of it. If Gen. Grant is nom mated and elected, nobody ought to claim either office or honor on account Of or-

Saute,

raizing the first Grant club in Terre for such a club was never organ ized.. The editor of this paper was on that committee and knows whereof he speaks.—Courier.

The distinguished editor of the Courier is very much mistaken. There was a Grant club formed here and many citizens enrolled their names as members. I. N. Pierce was the chairman, and appointed a committee, whose chairman was E. P. Beauchamp, to draft a constitution and by-laws, and at whose pleasure the committee was to report to the meeting, which was to be called by said chairman, and which has been held in abeyance by the chairman of said committee, he having his own reasons therefor. It might be proper to say, however, that we are informed by the chairman of said committee, that his correspondence with persons all over the State with reference to the matter has by no means been small, and that he has Grant campaign music, songs, badges, mottoes, medleys ect., ect., which will be used in case Grant should receive the Chicago nomination.

THERE appeared a clipping in this morning's Express, headed, "Terre Haute Speaks," supposed to have been taken from the Chicago Tribune, and have been paid for by a few gentlemen of ultra antiGrant proclivities, of this city, and done to circulate at Chicago for the purpose of intimidating honest men in exercising their own judgment with reference to their choice in the Convention. We can say that the special dispatch to the Tribune does not state facts, and does not reflect the feelings of the masses in this community at all and we would put the honeat delegate on guard, for he will surely be approached by many. Self constituted protectors of this great and glorious country upon this subject, and with bombast, and light words, attempt to bulldoze and scare him into his way of saving the coun try, As a rule such sdf constituted authority, can generally be found, like a red necked turkey gobler sitting on the fence gobling hi? opinions to whomsoever will stop and listen, and when the listener passes on he finds himself only inflated with air. Therefore be ye not afraid.

TERRE HAUTE has a candidate for Governor. Riley McKeen is the President of the Vnndalia railroad, and is one of the most highly respected and most popular men in this section of the State. Somebody suggested his name as the Republican "candidate for Governor, and the suggestion has struck Terre Haute "all of a heap." The large business enterprise that Mr. McKeeiriias successgully handled proves him to be a man of fine executive ability, his character is without a flaw, his reputation among all classes is almost enviable, and the general verdict here is that he would make a strong and successful candidate and a Governor that would give dignity to the office and would honor the State.—Laporte Herald Chronicle.

Yes, he is the man, and the NEWS is the "somebody" who suggested his name as candidate for Governor.

A FELLOW by the name of Milo S. Hascall is showing political idiotcy by roaring through the country his opposition to Grant as the Republican nominee at Chicago, and claims the nomination for Auditor of State from the Republicans of this State upon this ground, declaring that he will accept the nomination only upon the condition that Grant is sacrificed in his behalf. Well, this is a fine fellow, this Mil-o-thc post to check. Who wants Hascall for Auditor of State? We are sure he can find but one man. and his name is Hascall. O, ye gods! show us a few more pure men like this "feUer!"

WE have a chronic set of mon in this state who say that they will not vote for Grant if he is nominated. We do not knowthatanysuc.il men arc delegates to Chicago, but one tiling we do know and that is that no man should be ad mitted to the Convention as a delegate who says he will not support the nomi. nee of that Convention. Fellows of this class attend every Convention, not only National fmt in our State and County Conventions, and wc think the same rule should apply to all of them. And we think that on next Wednesday the Republicans at Chicago will act with wisdom and tact in this matter.

GEN. MILO S. HASCALL, who attacks the Republicanism of John C. New, the Chairman of the State Committee, is the same man who went hand in hand with Voorhees, McDonald, Landers & Co., to defeat Gen. Browne for Governor in 1873.

THE

bitterest anti Gfaut paper in the

country Jyg the Cincinnati Commercial. All theMi bitfefftess and vituperation against Republicans who favor Grant in the nonpareil column of yesterday's Ex press was stolen firotn: tne Commercial, but the Express didn't have manhood to give the Commercial credit for the dirty stuff.—CowHer.'

That's tight John, touch 'em on the lar board side.

Hon. James T. Johnson.

The above gentlemen came down gently upon our citizens on Tuesday morning last, like the gentle dew from Heaven. His approach was unheralded by the brazen tuba or the shrill nates of the fife, but he came all the same—from the city of Rockville, and county of Parke. He is one of those great big stalwarts, one iwho thinks it is a duty he owes God and his country to vote a straight Republican ticket. He is a plain man, an every day man, a good man, and an honest man. His record in the Indiana State Legislature is an excellent oije, his standing at home above reproach, his relations abroad are of such character that wherever he goes he meets hosts of friends. To make along 6tory short, he is a candidate before the Congressional convention of this district, and should the nomination bo awarded him, he will make a telling canvass and the fur fly from his opponent, and he be triumphantly elected.—Covington People's Paper.

We have known Mr. Johnson for the last twenty years and can endorse the ahove as true. James was a private soldier during the war, and it is said that he is very proud of it. Private soldiers have more to be proud of than generals have.
