11A N L Y 'S STA TEMENTS. Governor Manly lias been declaring that the Democrats were wrong when they stated that there had been extravagance in state expenses. He holds that the state's affairs have been conducted more cheaply than under the Democrats. He expects his word, without proof, to stand in the case. In the light of liis statement the following figures are interesting, however: The report of the Auditor of State for the last full year (1896) of Governor Matthews’ administration shows the following: Total disbursements, $6,363,1 12.• 31, of which there was paid on state debt, $6m),600.on. Total expenditures, less payment on state debt, $5,762,512.31. The report of the Auditor of Stale for the year ending, October 31, I 906. is as follows: T< I fshurseuieiits, $9,099,212, 22, of mIi i paid on state debt, $219,671 Total expenditures, less state ili bl payment, $8,879,540.65. Increase in State expenditure in
It is a remarkable fact, one worthy of note, and speaking strongly of the methods of the Republican party, that scarcely a statement made in regard to the beliefs of men or Hie action of conventions within the last month but has been proved untrue by tlie individuals quoted or lie- oificei of the conventions. Thus we have the case of Gen. Lee, and the statements in regard to John Mitchell and his attitude toward Bryan. Also we have the criticism of the Convention of the Stab 1 Federation of Libor at Vincennes, and the declaration (hat the Friends in their yearly western meeting had endorsed county local option. Now the presiding ofifiers of both these meetings declare that the statements published by the Republicans through the Star were false in almost every particular. Almost every statement investigated is found to be more or less untrue, certainly a startling revelation of political methods. Instead of the moral part/ tb Republicans might well be called, from tliis record, the party of falsi licat ion.
The Republican parti i now ana t ing through its leaders thut it ha killed the Prohibition parti The Re publicans dedafe that thei have won over enough PrnhihitionlsU to di; nipt Hie party and make it fetever of no importance in Indiana. Thus the Republican parti stoops to boast of a condition prhduced by the kindness of Prohibitionists who abandoned their awn ideals to support what, to them, was a halfway mean nre, for the time only. But the boast is vain, for the Prohibition headquarters tells us that Hie party is as strong as ever and perhaps st ronger.
STILL TRYING TO MISLEAD TEACHERS.
James Schoolcraft Sherman. The Republican candidate for Vice-
Prcsidcnt has been in the public service for a period of nearly twenty years. He is at present Congressman from the 27th New York District. He is a man of wealth as well as dlttinction. He is the head of a Trust and Deposit company, vice-presiden* of a National Bank, a director of an electric railway and a stockholder in several other “reasonable profit ’ concerns. Mr. Sherman’s latest business venture was in the ice business. In the city of Utica. N. Y., Mr. Sherman's residence, there were up until a short time ago two ice companies and a water works company. Now they are all one, and Mr. James Schoolcraft Sherman is the president Of the concern. For many years the people of Utica, and especialli the poorer classes, enjoyed the privilege of buying ice from two competing companies. This looked too good to Jim to pass by, so he, or, rather a stock company, bought the water works company, from whose reservoir Hie ice supply was harvested each year. There is no other place near Utica where ice can be secured. After buying the water works the stock company elected Mr. Sennan to its head. The new company served notice to the two competing ic< companies that they could harvest no more ice from the water works reservoir. They then started a delivery
There has been sent out to the teachers of the state—from the office of the Superintendent of Public In st ruction, it is said—a fabrication which is intended to help thff Re publican state ticket. One of the per sons on tliis ticket is Lawrence Me Turnan, present deputy superintendent and candidate for superinten dent. McTurnian is the man who fathers the lie. The fie itself Is this that Mr. Marshall, Democratic candidate fur governor made a speech in which he said: There are many girls competent tn teach that are willing to teach for a great deal less than the minimum wage law requires, if they could teach at home. As a result many girls are forced to tench away from home and their communities are paying more than they can afford for teachers. If (lie clause providing a penalty for trustees hiring teachers below the minimum wage law were repeal ed tills could he remedied. 1 do not begrudge to teachers all they can get, but 1 do say that the state should get its work done as cheaply as possible.” Mr. Marshall never, at any time or place, used any such language. But after setting out the above McTurnan is Ills circular says that Mr. Marshall stands for the “repeal of the teachers minimum wages and qualifications law" and means to “seriously crippic 1 the school system of Indiana Tliis Is not true, on the contrary, it is absolutely false, and no person who Is in the least acquainted with the partisan character of the management of the Superintendent of Public Instruction's office under Cotton and MeTurnan will give it credence.
service of their own. The two old companies were afterward absorbed by the newly formed company. With the old companies it was cither starve or get out of business and thei sold to the “ice trust.” The ice rate nas “revise,!.” Tin 1 old rate hud been $1.75 u month for four dellv eries a week ami $2.uii for seven de liveries. The new company laised Hie rate to $2.00 and $2.50 f ir tin

i ite.-; was not the worst feature of lid (rust, but Hie company issued an order In the drivers of its wagouR to sell no more ice from the wagons to
persons who were not regular < u
tamers of the company. Tliis order was obeyed and worked untold hard ship to the poor and the sick who could not afford the luxury of a daily delivery. Ice could not be procured in any manner from the company ex cept by those who were regular patrons. It was a common practice for
children to run after wagons in th
hope that a piece of ice would fall off and they could get it to tak 1 honi* to a sick member of the family. Nothing would move the president of Hie company, James Schoolcraft Sherman, and the saloonkeepers weri appealed to. This class of men, who are generally spoken of as the worst type of humanity, came to the res in of the poor and when called upon furnished ice in almost any quantity free of charge, to the poor and the sick who were unable to buy it from Hie company. This goes to show where Mr. Sherman stands on tin trust and tariff revision propositions. lb 1 is not safe to .he the right-hand man of the President of the United States, neither is lie the man tn look to for reform in measures concerning the common people. He lias been in tlie public service for nearly Twenty
iears. Let's get rid of him.

A farmer on Rural Route 2, Empire, Ga., W. A. Floyd by name, says: Bucklen's Arnica Salve cured the two worst sores I ever saw; one,on my hand and one on my leg.

This Is precisely what President Roosevelt said in 19ii-l about n similar charge. Hut everybody now knows that the charge then made by Judge Parker was true. The charge now made is true, if it were not true t he Republicans would publish llieir contributions ns the Democrats have done.

A VOTER.
A University in Politics. Josephus Daniels, chairman of the Demoerntlc publicity bureau, commented as follows on the appearance of Prof. .1. Laurence Laughlin of the University of Chicago as a stump speaker attacking the guaranty of bank deposits: “It is not surprising,” said he, “to see a professor of the University of ( hicago on the stump opposing a men ure so beneficial to the poor man us the guaranty of hank deposits. John D. Rockefeller and the other Standard Oil manufacturers can not he expected to favor Mr. Bryan's plans. "Doubtless Mr. Rockefeller has communicated to the university which his money supports and has indicated that he would be gratified to have ihe university do effective work for the candidate he favors in this campaign."
THE PEOPLE S COLUMN
■x9^~:«xhx«x~x~x~x~x«x«X"X..:. LABOR \\D TilK ELEFTIOV.
Henry Clews, the Wall street publicity agent, has taken the stump fur Taft. This typical representative of Wall street declares that Bryan is unsafe and that Judge Taft will make ua ideal president. A few days ago he addressed a big crowd of eastern hankers and. of course, opposed theguaranty of hank deposits. Mr. Clews declared that the guaranty bank plank is “socialistic in Its tendency and a far cry from true democratic principles, which oppose excessive centralization of power."
Taft and his supporters; are Insisting that if Bryan should bo elected a hostile senate would defeat Democratic alms. This is an admission that they are false in their claim that the people rule, as Bryan says they should. Paste that in jour hat,—Johnstown Democrat.
tine Voter's View of the Promises of The Republican Party to Lulxrring Men.
October 26. The vote for which the final fight is being made in Indiana is the labor vote. The party that gets the labor vote this time wins. Tlie Demi crats •ought to have all Ihe labor voles in Indiana for in 1896 the Republican parly promised them protection eight-hour law and a full dinner pail Tlie fact seems lo he that all things are protected except labor The eight-hour law only is for tlie few. because nine-tenths of the labor is working ten and twelve hours, a .lav and the dinner pair, God only knows where It has gone to! That all sounded well i n 1896, but it don’t sound well now from the Republican paity which made the promise and failed to keep it. The Republican party denies this, but God knows it is true, ami the laboring man knows it too. The Democratic party lias reason to expect the preponderance
A Voice From the West. Denver, Col., Oct. 24, ’08. Star-Democrat, Greencastle, Ind., Gentlemen: My paper of about October 15th failed to arrive as yet. Kindly mail a copy if you have one in the office Very glad indeed to know the outlook for Bryan in Indiana is good. Just keep your eye on Colorado November 3 and see how popular he Is in the West where he lives. We are going to carry the state sme. it is simply a question of how big the majority. Some surprises w ill be handed out from some good Republican stales (so counted) in the West. Am 42 and this is my first Democratic vote for president and 1 fall to see lion anyone oilier than Hie chronic office seeker can vote otherwise this year. Although I regard Bryan as much superior to Taft the great tiling that is catching the Republican votes — especially of the laboring man is tlie platform. My own desire is that congressmen and especially senators of Hie Democratic faith should be given a trial at some new financial legislation which will prevent a few Wall Street gamblers starting a panic when they desire. The present force on tlie job have proven to be wholly corrupt and under improper influence. The East should put them aside at tliis election. Wo of the West are more independent and ihe panic was hardly so severe but we see things in a new light and wl’l act accordingly. Yours for success, J. T. BRIDGES.
