WILLIAM WALTER PHELPS, of New Jersey, has been appointed Minister to Germany. It is a splendid appointment.

HON. JOHN O. CRAVENS, of Ripley county, has been appointed Internal Revenue Collector for this the Gth Internal Revenue District. We know Mayor Cravens and he is a good man and has made many a gallant fight for the 'Republicans.

MRS. R. B. HAYES,

of Fremont, Ohio,

ATTORNEY-GENERAL MITCHENEK and City Attorney Wm. Taylor, of Indianapolis, have both passed opinions that where cities raise the saloon license to the full limit of the law, that those saloon men who had obtained their license previous to the passing of the ordinance, can be compelled to pay the additional amount required to fill out the year at the higher rate.

FROF. WILEY,

Chemist of the Agricul­

tural Department, thinks the prospects for beet sugar production in this country is very flattering. The lake regions of Indiana, Michigan and Ohio are well adapted for this industry and he sees no reason why this section of the country cannot supply the whole country with sugar. Congress made an appropriation for experimenting in this enterprise and Prof. Wiley thinks., there is no doubt about the success.

Ix a recent temperance lecture Luther Benson spoke of the man who only drank "now and then," but some way that man drank "now." The man who "could drink, or let it alone usually prefers to drink. The third kind is the man who only drinks 'more or less,'' and some way it always happens that he drinks more instead of less. The only safe way is to let whisky alone altogether. The way to stop the sale of whisky is to stop the drinking. Selling and drinking have lost their respectability and are rapidly ceasing in Hancock county.

fe TWO GUILTY DEMOCRATS.

Ex-County Treasurer Miller and Smith Williams. Superintendent of the county poor-farm, pleaded guilty before Judge j. Woods, Thursday of last week, to voting the insane and idiotic paupers at the last •J election and were fined, the first $250, and the second $50. Miller said that he I had but followed the example of his Republican predecessors, but the court replied that that could not be placed as an excuse for crime.

THE DEMOCRACT1C PARTY TO-DAY.

The Democratic Party in earlier days had some fixed principles, everywhere openly proclaimed but it has none now save whatever its national conventions elaborate to fit such presidential candidates as Greeley, Hancock or Cleveland, and subject to quadrennial change and mystification. Once "States rights and the resolutions of '98" were in the forefront of the Democratic creed but all this has vanished, and no one now pretends to fear national invasion of the rights of any State. Another ringing article of their creed was hard money, Bentonian gold, instead of paper money, which they denounced as being made only of "rags and lamp-black strange to say, there is hardly anything now that cau be invented for circulation too cheap or too soft and rickety for the major part of the party. The time lias been when the party was wont to denounce all internal improvement as unconstitutional but now no appropriations for such work appear too extravagant to find elastic support in a Democratic House of Representatives. The partjr once claimed as its patent of superiority the equal rights and privileges of all men but in eleven States such rights and privileges are denied and refused to millions of American citizens, by those who masquerade and aim to dominate under the name of the Democratic Party. The party, forgetting that it is itself, as the sole author of the rebellion, the sole cause of the extraordinary neccessity for the great increase of revenue, puts forth the banner of "revenue reform" under which it covertly battles for free trade, but quivers and recoils from any deep cut of tariff duties on Louisiana sugar, on South Carolina rice, on Pennsylvania iron, on Tennessee marble, on North Carolina peanuts, or on Florida oranges, being largely products of some Democratic Districts, therefore, dangerous to touch with free trade reform, and inclined to revolt. Once the Democratic Party was wont to declare and repeat that "the executive power has increased, was increasing, and ought to be diminished" but in spite of President Cleveland's many and frantic vetoes: in spite of his depositing sixty millions of public money in pet banks without interest and without law in spite of his appointments, without the advice and consent of the Senate, of ministers (minus the title) to negotiate treaties in spite of his attempts to govern Congress by giving or withholding executive favors in order to effect the repeal of all duties on wool and to prevent the repeal^ the internal tax on tobacco, the party made no protest against the undue exercise of extraordinary executive power, which seems to have reached a growth not less colossal than that tinder the administration of General Jackson, when Calhoun denounced the Democratic Party as bound together "by the cohesive power of public plunder.'' To secure a reelection, besides his reported financial contribution, the President set forth in his annual message his free-trade political sentiments, which, had they been previously known, would undoubtedly have defeated his first election. As a candidate for a third time he may have the support of the New York Tammany Society, but with no vehement adherents elsewhere.—Senator Justin S. Morrill in the July Forum.

A Double Wedding.

Last evening at the home of Mrs. Francher, on South East street, Rev.Wm. Anderson performed the ceremony which will enable four young people to engage in the battle of life in pairs instead of singly. The contracting parties were Mr. Rose Bixler and Miss Cora Francher, and Mr. John Wagoner and Miss Mary Marts. The REPUBLICAN wishes the young couples success and prosperity.

There will be preaching Saturday night and Sunday morning and night A nufflbe.1 of prominent and able miniisters will be present.

Hit With a ltock.

Yesterday afternoon while James J. Duncan was in the cherry tree on the property where he lives, picking cherries, Ed Chandler, who also lives in the same property,applied an opprobious epithet to Doncan and while the latter was coming down hit him in the head with a stone, cutting a severe gash. Duncan choked Chandler a little when his mother and ster interfered and the row ceased.. Dr. Haward, Jr., sewed up the cut in Duncan's head. Young Chandler was fined and costed to the amount of $9.75 by Mayor Herron.*

The July issue of Scribner's Magazine is a Midsummer Fiction number, containing seven complete short stories, four of them richly illustrated by such artists as Frederic Remington, Robert Blum, and Chester Loomis: and an unusually exciting installment of Mr. Stevenson's serial, "The Master of Ballantrae.'" "How the Derby was Won," is a Kentucky story by Harrison Robertson, Managing Editor of the Luouisville Courier Journal. There area number of other strong features. "The Telegraph of To-day" is a splendid article.

Tin: LINCOLN HISTORY.

Following the July chapters of "The Life of Lincoln"—which describe the President's renomination and Mr. Greeleys self-suggested peace trip to Niagara— there will probably be only six more installments of this remarkable history in the Century series. These concluding chapters deal with the most important and absorbing personal and political topics, to which Messrs. Nicolay and Hay bring a vast fund of special information. Lincoln's sagacity in dealing with men and measures (and occasionly his humor) come out in strong relief in the chapters that give the inside view of the attempt of the radicals to defeat the renomination of the President, of the disagreements resulting in Cabinet changes, of Chase's appointment to the chief-justiceship, and of the executive dealings with the "copperhead" conspirators of the North. No part of the work will attract wider attention than the account of the measures adopted by the religious denominations in support of the Anministration, and of the sympathy and wisdom with which the President met the suggestions of the churches. Of the interest of the last three installments it is only necessary to say that they cover the period from the second inaugural to the death of Lincoln and the collapse of the rebellion.

The publishers announce that the back numbers of the Century from November, 1886, containing the installments of the Lincoln History are now all in print and can be supplied to those who wish to complete their sets. Of several of these numbers two hundred and fifty thousand copies have been printed.
