The Democrats claimed they were defeated in the last Presidential canvass because their candidate was too good for tho party. They are taking good care, in this Stato at least, that no such glaring error shall he made this year.

Applicants for pensions will be glad to know that Commissioner Dudley believes the new force which Congress has provided for his office will enable him to settle up pending arrears cases within one year, and to dispose of the entire accumulation of applications of all kinds within three years.

With warm weather upon us, the human system can barely stand the shock inflicted by the following startling piece of news, in the Kvansvillc Journal of July 2d, 1SS2. We trust the Journal will not touch on oventa since the Flood:

Gen. Lew. Wallaco lias been nominated by the President for Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary to Turkey.

The Democrats of Pennsvlvannia are for protecting I'nnigylraniii. industry, while those of South Carolina are opposed to all protection and in favor of free trade, in order to promote South Carolina industry. Yet they vote for the same Democratic candidates with the sole motive of getting into power. The Republican party is in favor of protecting and developing the industry of the whole country— and therein the difference between them consists. One is local, the other national.

It is well understood that the Democratic party tn Pennsylvania is in favor of a patriotic tarill'. Therefore at its State Convention held in Ilarrisburg on Wednesday last, it declared itself "in favor of the industrial interests of Pennsylvania," ignoring, with characteristic cunning, anv reference whatever to tho industrial interests of the whole country. 0:ie would suppose that this fraud had become so transparent that intelligent people would ho ashamed of it. Put nothing seems to bring a blush to the cheek of a Democratic politician when he sets his heart upon a party triumph.

A telegram from llong Kong, China, dated 'May 2Sth, represents that Commodore 1\. W. Shufeldt, of the United States Navy, had reached that city from Corea, bringing infurniatiod that the Corean authorities had ratified a treaty with the United States, by which we will be entitled to send a Minister, or Consul-General, and Consuls to that country. This is an important concession from a people who have hitherto kept their ports strictly closed, and have refused to hold commercial intercourse with other nations. And it is creditable to Commodore Shufeldt and the olticers associated with him, that they have been enabled to overcome these stubborn prejudices, and to place the United States in so advantageous a position, while the efforts of

THE CAMPAIGN,

Congress will certainly adjourn during the present month, and the return of the members to their homes,—especially those nominated for re-elec-tion—will soon be signalized by the opening of the political campaign. Candidates for county and local offices will also feel the infection and it will not be long until the work of electioneering will be actively going on. In the meantime it is well to consider the nature of tho approaching contest, so as to be prepared for-it—at least in this Congressional District and in our own county.

The nomination of Mr. Peirce for reelection to Congress may be properly assigned to his well-earned reputation as a faithful, honest, consistent and working member of the present House, and to the conceded fact that ha has been and is a firm and unswerving representative of the principles of the Republican party. In

far as these" principles have been involved in the legislation of the present session, he has done everything which his Republican constituents had any right reasonably to expect he has not been remiss in the discharge of a single legislative duty and has proved, in a high degree, faithful to his trust.

During the session he has had occasion to vote upon divers measures which have involved the policy of tho Government and the public interests. These measures include tho faithful administration of the Government, in all its departments economy in public expenditures fidelity to public trusts just responsibility on the part of public officers the maintenance of the public credit the preservation of our national currency the recognition of all the legal rights of the citizen, without regard to condition, nativity or color proper protection to American labor and industry by just discrimination in their favor, as against like labor and industry in other countries and last, but by no means the least, such security to a free ballot and fair count in all elections, as shall preserve the integrity of the government, by enabling tho will of the people to be honestly and truthfully ascertained. Upon all these important questions—some directly and others incidentally—Mr. Peirce has so voted as to prove that his Republicanism is above suspicion And so well understood is this, throughout the district, that his Republican constituents have renominated him under circumstances which they intended should signify their approbation of his course bo cause to have done otherwise, after his faithful discharge of duty, would have indicated a loss of confidence in the principles they have so long professed. No-where in the District have there been evidences of this loss of confidence and there is

110

reason to be-,

lievo there will be. The re-election of Mr. Pierce may, therefore, bo confl dently predicted, and by an increased majority. A contrary result cannot be produced unless hundreds of Republicans should abandon the party and become Democrats, by throwing themselves into the arms of those whose policy they have invariably denounced as inimical to tho best interests of tho country a thing as difficult of accomplishment, considering the structure and character of the Democratic party, as tho invention of perpetual motion. Even those in the Republican ranks who have opposed the re-nomination of Mr. Peirce, will upon reflection, come to see, if they have not already seen, the magnitude and importance of the issue involved in his re-election, and how important it is to the country that the banner of Republicanism shall not be lowered until all the. ends for which the party has long struggled shall be finally and triumphantly accomplished. There is something moro in such a contest than the mere success of individuals. Men die, but political principles are perpetual, descending from one generation to another, and leaving their impress upon our public institutions. Even the great lights of the Republican party may be extinguished—as they have been in two memorable instances, by the hand of the assassin— but still the party survives, and vrill continue to survive so long*as it has work to do in the cause of good government and in maintaining the peace, prosperity and happiness of the whole country.

Our Republican county ticket is a most excellent or.e, composed of some who, in the public position they have heretofore filled, have proved themselves faithful to every administrative trust, and of other, who, while they have not yet held office, havo by consistent integrity in private life exiiibied those qualities of honesty and uprightness which commended them to the people. Among them there is not 0110 man of whom it can be said that it would be unsafe to trust him in the management of public affairs. Some of them havo exhibited their devotion to the country by tho readiness with which they exposed their lives when its life and honor were assailed and all of them, by their firm attachment to Republican principles, have shown how necessary they consider it that these principles shall be maintained.

With such candidates before them the Republicans of this Congressional District and of Vigo county, have everything to stimulate them to active and unremitting exertions to secure the success of the entire ticket. Of that success there can bo 110 doubts if proper efforts are made. We lielievo they will be, and that when the time for active, energetic work shall arrive, tho whole

"the loaves and fishes"—in the mere perquisites of office—will be driven, by their honest convictions, to an abandonment of the Democratic party, at least, in this campaign, to the extent of realizing that the public interest, their own included, will require them to cast their ballots for the Republican candidates, both in Congres-. sional and county ballots.

A Mystery.

Vlncennes Sun. S-THE-P.-.T A few hour's stay in the environs of Terre Haute In the quietude of the night, and a Sun.representative caught in his ear the significant whisper, "and still there's more to follow. More and more, more and more." It will require a libel suit to bring It out. The dirge secret-is newspaper property, but it will take a suit to dissolve tho injunction of secrecy.

Our Level-Headed 8enator.

Indianapolis People: Senator Harrison wishes it distinctly understood that he is in no manner responsible for theoppointment of Terro Hautentot Carleton on the Utah Commission. He doed not think that Indiana "is so strongly Republican that she can afford to divido her patronage with the Democratic porty." We should reckon not. In this lattor supposition the little Senator's head Is eminently level.

POINTS POLITICAL.

The Democrats have so long had a monopoly of brass that they envy a Ropubll can the possellion of a bronze medal

Kansas City Times: Conkllng has been closeted with the President, and notwith standing tho warm weather, the half brceds.are shivering and their teeth are heard to chatter like castonets.

Columbus Republican: The Democratic party thrives upon disasters, and if there were to be a failure of crops, and con sequent hard times, It might have somo hope, but this hope Is growing moro remote every day.

Fort Wayne Gazette: The North Carolina Democrats give notice that in order to carry tho State they will need a great deal of outsido money. This is sad, and the news will giro Indiana Democrats tho worst kind of hydrophobia.

Every day adds to the demoralization of the Democracy on tho tariff question Thoy And agreement Impossible, nor can they agree to disagree. They will be compelled to put into their platform in 1884 Just about such a plank as wrecked tho wholo concern in 1880.

Goshen Times: It IB the boast and glory of tho Republican party that it will correct and always has corrected the abuses that occur or have occurred within it Tills will at tlmos occasion a little klckln In some quarters, but will always end in purer politics and Increased party vigor.

Tho probability of a fusion between the Democrats and Greenbackers in Michigan becomes stronger. The Detroit Free Press argues in favor of it, and tries to overcome the prejudice somo honest Democrats evidently have against uniting with tho ragmoney party. The prospects of such combination succeeding are, however, dubious, The Republican party In Michigan Is harmonious, and It has more votes than the Democratic and Groenback parties together.

Tho Now Orleans Times-Democrat is greatly ploased with the speech of Mr, Horr (Rep., Mich.), on the necessity of taking caro of the Mississippi rlvor. It says that "his sentiments differ but little from those of our own people," and that Ills speech "opens to us tho brilliant possibility that the Republican party, forsaking Its sectionalism and war ontheSouth, may adopt tho patriotic policy of rebuilding.and restoring, as Mr. Horr proposes, tho waste places of our Southern land."

Indianapolis Journal: "The work of reform is ahead of us," said Governor Hen dricks at tlio Democratic editorial powwow at Masonic Temple, 011 tho 29th ult., and Mr. Hendricks, in his most candid statement of the situation, never uttered a moro significant truth and lie might havo added, with much propriety, that It is likely to stay ahead for tho next half century, unless Democrats quit opposing every reform proposed by tho Republicans during its formative period, to adopt it only after It has proved a grand success.

Chicago Tribune: The sharp practice resorted to by the Democratic Mayor of Cincinnati for the purpose of increasing the discontent among the

Gorman Repub

licans at the enforcement of tho SundayClosing law, and also with a view to gaining tho approbation of tho Prohibitionists in tho pretended strict execution of' the law, Is so palpable an Imposition that it will very likely produce an opposite effect from that Intended. Under the Democratic Mayor's instructions the police last Sunday arrested none but Republican saloonkeepers, the odicers in one In-, stance leaving undisturbed tho saloon kept by a Democrat, where they had Indulged hi drinks all around, to go across the street and arrest a Republican. Tho trick is so transparent that both tho Republican saloonkeepers and tho Prohibitionists can seo through it at a glance, the more easily because the arrests are made out of pure malice, there being already several hundred eases docketed for trial more than can possibly bo disposed of.

Indianapolis Journal: Tho full reply of Assistant Postmaster General Hatton, to tho inquiry from a member of the Postal Service of this city, as to whether any official objection would be made to his contributing to the Republican campaign committee, is as follows:

Sir.—In answer to yours of the 14th inst., In regard to contributing funds for campaign purposes, you are informed that It is entirely optional with tho party addressed. You say, "it is the opinion of several employes that oillcial objection will be raised to such voluntary contributions." I cannot, of course, answer for any other officer of tho Government. I do not consider it any part of my official duty to dictate to tho employes under me In regard to the disposition they make of their own private funds. I shall, as an employe of the Government, decide for myself whether or not I will make a voluntary contribution to aid In meeting the necessary and legitimate expenses of the campaign, and I am quite willing to concede the same right to all other men

It may como into the house iu a wholesome condition, yet there is ever tho danger that it will become tainted with thesewer gas from closets, or even with tho dust carried by drafts through sleeping or living rooms. There can be no doubt that while milk is one of the best and most palatable of foods for summer, it must bo carefully guarded from tho farm to tho table or It will prove a potent vehicle of dlsoase.

Dr. Jules Arnold estimates that in 1878 thero were in tho United States 30,528,000 beef cattle, 310,740,000 sheep, and 32.202,000 hogs. Texas alone, with 820.000 Inhabitants, had 4,500,000 of beef cattle, 1,360,000 sheep, and over a million of hogs. In Can ada, in 1871, thero were 2,701,000 beef cattle, 3,331,000 sheep, and 1.418,000 hogs. South America is still moro rich in animal food In tho cities of the Argentine Republic, in 1877, thero were 23,337,000 beef cattlo, 70,500,000 sheep, and about 355.000 hogs. So that In this latter region there are about ten beef cattle and thirty-one sheep to eaeli inhabitant, while in Europe there are only 331 beef cattlo and 7CD sheep to each 1,000 inhabitants.

J. S. Giimorc, Land Commissioner of the Kansas Pacific railway, Is quoted as saying that the greater portion of the wheat crop of Kansas has beon harvested and that the yield will bo of greater value than the great ono of 1878, when the crop was 32,000,000 bushels. The acreage this season was not as largo, but tho average yield to tho acre will be greater and the wheat better in quality, and will probably grade No. 2. Tho crop will be greater from present prospects than in 1879, whon tho crop was 108,000,000 bushels, as the average Is 25 per cent, more this year than then. The warm weather of the past ten days has had a wonderful effect upon the corn, and at tho same timo has given the farmers time to harvost.

Annie Louise Gary and Her Sister. Portland (Me.) Press, June 2-1. Notwithstanding the announcement In yesterday's, papers that Miss Cary would bo unable to sing In the evening, there was a largo audience gathered In City Hall to listen to the other ladios and gentlemen who had kindly volunteered their sorvices. Miss Cary horself, attended by Messrs. H. N. Jose and A. W. II. Olapp, of tho Hospital Directors, assisted by Messrs. II. I-\ turbish, U. 10. Bird nnd Fritz Jordan, received her many friends in Heccptlon Hall for an hour preceding the concert, all of whom sympathized with her in hor misfortune, and tendered hor their sincere wishes for a speedy recovery. They assured her. as.all our people may from the Atlantic to the Pacific, that the loss of her voice would be a national calamity, for, be it remembered, wo havo but ono other to compare with it on the stage of the world to-day, that of Maine. Trebeili-Bettini. Of the concert itself we have but words of praise. Tlio programmo was well selected, the singers were all In good voice, there wero no tedious waits ana no constant encores to double tho evening's entertainment. Mrs. Ada Cary Sturgls fairly astonished everybody. It Is eight years since she appeared at a public concert In this city, if we are not mistaken, and her voice seemed richer, more liquid, and it responded to tho will of its owner with an ease and spontaneity thatgeneraily comes with the greatest culture added to natural advantages. As she came upon tho stage, led by Annie Louise, there was a tremendous burst of applause, and as Annie Louise presented her sister to tho audience, kissed her hand and smiled, a great ball seemed to push itself up into many a throat at the thought of her many triumphs on that platform, and the fact that she was delegating to another what seemed her own by right. How charmingly Mr. Sturges sang Balf's "Day is done with what dramatic simplicity and beauty of tone I But it was reserved for "Katharine Mavourneen" to stir old associations, and at last, in response to an encore, the lady yielded and sang "Jcannett's Choice" in a all her listeners.
