One Trustee. One Assessor. Three Justices of the Peace. Three Constables. The convention will be held in accor--dance with the Australian election law, voters stamping in the little square be fore the name of the candidates for whom they desire to vote.

There will be one poll opened at Maxwell for precincts one and two: one in the city of Greenfield for the remainder of the precincts in the township.

Polls will be open at 8 o'clock a. m. and close at 6 o'clock p. m. By order of Township Committee.

W. P. BIDGOOD, Chairman.

E. J. BIXFORD, Secretary.

It KEEPS the average Democrat hustling to keep up with the various changes of the Democratic tariff bill and te file his indorsement of the same.

In. 1892 the Democrats swept the country and canned everything on the promisesof"

what

they were going to do."

They ,are being beaten worse this year on "what they have not done." The Democratic party was always asking for a chance saying! give us entire control of the- government. They were given it ancHt has proved a curse to both 'the partjrand the country. The leaders of the'Democratic party are not equal tp the emergency, they hate not. the statesmanship to manage tfcie country'properly. "-i t,

UNDER the Reed rule, the Democrats secure a quorum now without any difficulty. The adoption of many other Republican ideas and policies would save them lots of bother and be highly beneficial to the country.

IT SEEMS a little peculiar that all of the Populists except Senator Peffer voted to take the duty off of wool and a number'of farm products and put them on the free list. They have thus injured the very men they claim to be trying to help. The Republicans hive been the consistent friends of the farmer.

A COMMITTEE of the English government which was over here last year investigating the immigration question in the United States recently reported that the English, Irish, Germans and Scandinavians who came made good citizens because they soon assimilated and became one with us. As to the other nationalities they withheld an opinion. The facts are we have been inundated with a vicious, anarchistic lawless class of immigrants, which needs to be shut out altogether. We have protected the products of labor, but not the laborers themselves. Both are in need of protection. Restrict immigration more vigorously and make it too hot for a lot of foreign anarchists who are already here.

ANOTHER bond issue is now about to be made by Cleveland, Carlisle & Co. Gold is going out of the country at the rate of about $3,000,000 a week, and the gold balance in the treasury is now only about $90,000,000, $10,000,000 below the established reserve. That means Carlisle will sell more bonds the last of this month or in June to buy gold. The people will pay the interest and Cleveland's bond-buying friends will pocket the profits in the way of Interest. No party will be retained in power who in times of perfect peace has to be continually selling bonds, and putting interest burdens on the people, to pay current expenses. Our financial system needs changing. Gold has become too high and all other articles too low. No country can be very prosperous with an era of extremely low prices and cheapness all along the line. That simply gives bond holders and usures increased power.

THE tariff has been so adjusted on sugar by the Democratic Senate bill that the big Sugar Trust will make from $54,000,000 to $56,000,000 dollars next year, The tariff does not go into effect until January and before that time they expect to have in all of this year's crop of sugar needed for next year and then by adding the duty which can be done, when a sufficient quantity of a necessary article can not be manufactured or raised in this country, they will clear the entire amount of the tariff imposed. They will not have to pay a cent of duty, because they will have a sufficient quantity here for next year before the duty takes effect. The government will derive no revenue, but the dear people will have to pay the Trust the $56,000,000 profit just the same. The Sugar Trust put $500,000 into the Cleveland campaign fund in 1892 and are now getting their pay. $56,000000 for $500,000 is a little big, but since the people will have it to pay, Cleveland and his Wall street friends do not care. Several of the Democratic Senators got on the inside and made a few hundred thousand dollars apiece in this sugar steal on tips from Havemyer, the President of the Trust. Never since the Credil Mobilier Scandal has there been such outrageous conduct on the part of Congress.

THERE is a wonderful unrest among American people at the present time. Men who labor are not'getting a full recompense for that labor. Too much of the value of the products of labor are being absorbed by trusts, monopolies and capitalists. Laws should be placed on our statute books that would bring about as far as possible, the desired change, so that every man would be sure to receive all that he earned and was entitled to. The great trouble is that the men who are Representatives and Senators are partisans and politicians, looking after the interests of their party rather than statesmen who have the interests of all the people and the whole country at heart, Statesmen prefer fair play and the great est good to the greatest number before sectional benefits and party success, Would that there were more legislators like Henry Clay, who said, "I would rather be right than President Senators and Representatives now want their party to succeed regardless of right. The Republican party at its birth was composed of men who wanted fair play all along the line. Its leaders were statesmen and for thirty years the country enjoyed a wonderful season of prosperity. As is natural with all organizations, some mistakes were made, but the great mass of the party were right on all the main issues of the day, and we believe that the Grand Old Republican Party is the one that in the near future is to lead this country out of the slough of despond. The Republican party certainly has learned a few things by its defeat and chastisement and is now ready, willing and able in the future as in the past to play fair with all the people in the country, and bring peace, plenty and prosperity, where Cleveland and his bondissuing policies has established soup houses and made Coxey's armies possible.

WHEN the laqfc Democratic legislature, under the leadership of Senator MoHugh, passed the bill extending the terms of municipal officers, from May 1893 to September 1894, it vr»g considered a bfg

'-•••4V/ fv

thing for the Democracy, as by far the greater number of the cities of the State were Democratic at that time. Had the election been held in May 1893, as they ought to have been before the panic struck us, and the people learned just how incompetent the national democracy is to conduct affairs, the majority of the cities would again probably have gone democratic. But this year the people sized up the democratic party and passed judgment upon it and now there is sadness in the camp, as nearly every city and town in the state went Republican. The Indianapolis Sentinel in speaking of the McHugh law says

Of course the law was merely apiece of cheap political trickery, and like such things usually do, it has come home to roost in the most startling and unexpected manner. Instead of being a polilical advantage to the Democrats it has given the opposition control four years of a number of Democratic cities with all the patronage and other rewards which the slick politician usually covets.

The same legislature with the aid of some Hancock county citizens also did the taxpayers, of this county up to the time of $3700 and this also, will be a boomerang to the Democrat party and come home to roost this fall.

W. R. Walker, of Wilkinson, was awarded the contract for the new school house in Sugarcreek township at $1,830. There were seven other bids, but he was over $200 below any competitor.

The Holland Hotel was egged Tuesday night during the storm by some parties who liberally spattered the front. The leasers, Reeser and McMahan think the work was done by parties who were enraged because they gave a woman by the name of Wilson, who has been tht ra fcr a time, notice to leave Monday.

On Wednasday of last week Nate C. Meek went to Indianapolis, claiming to go for his pension money, but it is since learned he had his money. He was expected home, but instead of returning he bought a ticket and went to Nebraska. He has been worrying considerable lately for fear his pension might be dropped, as Hoke Smith is dropping the old soldiers right and left. His home relations were pleasant, and as there is no cause for hi« leaving he may be expected home after a visit out west with relatives.

The Fortvllle Sun Publishing Co.

Last Saturday, the stockholders, about forty in number, of the Fortville Sun Publishing Co., selected a board of directors as follows: T. E. Bentley, R. L. Oggj Wm. Potts, Matt L. Frank, Sam Walker, J. F. Cushman and S. B. Prater. These gentlemen are all members of the People's Party and the Suu is the Populist paper for this congressional district.

Greenfield Ahead and Gaining—City School Enumerations.

Below we give the enumeration of school children between the ages of 6 and 21 years for this year. Greenfield as usual shows up well:

Kmghtstown, 774. New Castle, 923. Rushville, 1065. Noblesville, I860. Greenfield, 1528. Greenfield's gain over last year was 144.

Stale and Countj Taxes.

Tuesday Treasurer Ham made his settlement with the State treasurer. He paid in $23,939.43, and received back for the county only $11,084.57, or less than one-half. The Democratic legislatures have fixed it so that the State's expenses are enormous and taxpayers are being squeezed to the utmost limit. A day of reckoning will surely follow. The legislature and the officers laid the burdens upon the people, but the people will soon get a whack at them.

COUNCIL CHIPS.

Tlie Dunbar Corner Condemned.

There was not much business before the Council last night. A well for water works was leased of E. W. Felt. The water works engineer was telegraphed for. The old frame building known as the Dunbar eorner, was condemned and its removal ordered within 60 days by the owner, G. T. Randall. Quite a number of bills were allowed and the council adjourned.

HARRY STRICKLAND,

Nortli of Court-House.

Tlie A. P. A. Principles,

At the Des Moines Supreme Council last week they adopted a declaration of principles. The statement that Supreme President Traynor had recommended twenty one years! residence for naturalization was an error. His recommendation was ten years and the Supreme Council tiually decided that seven years should elapse between an alien's declaration and naturalization.

THE DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES. The declaration of principles is as follows: 1. Loyalty to true Americanism, which knows neither birthplace, race, creed nor party, is the first requisite for membership in the American Protective Association. 3. The American Protective Association is not a political party, and does not control the political affiliation of its members, but it teaches them to be intensely active in the discharge of their political duties in or out of party lines, because it believes that all problems confronting our people will be best solved by a conscientious discharge of the duties o£ citizenship by every individual. 3 While tolerant of all creeds, it holds that subjection to and support of any ecclesiastical power, not created and controlled by American citizens, and which claims equal if uot greater sovereignity than the Government of the United States of America is irreconcilable with American citizenship. It is, therefore, opposed to the holding of offices in National, State or municipal government by any subject or supporter of such ecclesiastical power. 4. We uphold the constitution of the United States of America, and no portion of it morn than its guaranty of religious liberty, but we hold this religious liberty to be guaranteed to the individual and not to mean that under its protection any un-American ecclesiastical power can claim absolute control over the education of children growing up under the •tars and stripes. 5. We consider the non sectarian free public school the bulwark of American institutions the best place for the education of American children, To keep them such we protest against the employment of subjects of any un-American ecclesiastical power as officers or teachers of our public schools. 6. We condemn the support out of the public treasury by direct appropriation or by contract of any sectarian school, reformatory or any other institu tion not owned and oontrolled by public authority. 7. Believing that exemption from taxation is equal to a grant of public funds, we demaud that no real or personal property be exempt from taxation the title to which is not vested in the national or State government, or in any of their subdivisions. 8. We protest against the enlistment in the United States army and navy or the militia of any State of any person not an actual citiaen of the United States. 9. We deuiand, for the protection of our citizen laborers, the prohibition of the importation of pauper labor and the restriction of all immigration to persons who can show their ability and honest intention to become selfsupporting American citizens. 10. We demand the change of naturalization laws by a repeal of the act authorizing the naturalization of minors without a previous declaration of intentions, and by providing that no aliens shall be naturalized or permitted to vote in any State in the Union who can not speak the language of the land and who can not prove seven years' continuous residence in this country from the date of his declaration of intentions. 11. We protest against the gross negligence and laxity with which the judiciary of our land administers the present uaturalizatio.i laws, and against the practice of naturalizing aliens at the expense of committees or candidates as the most prolific source of the present prostitution of American citizenship to the basest uses. 12. We demand that all hospitals, asylums, reformatories or other institutions in which people are under rebtraint, be at all times subject to public inspection, whether they are maintained by the public or by private corporations or individuals. 13. We demand that all National or State legislation affecting financial, commercial or industrial interests be general in character, and in no instance in favor of any one section of the country or of any oue class of people.

The council tabled every motion attempting to commit the order to any distinct line of policy on the money, labor, suffrage, temperance or other party questions, and also adopted a resolution declaring that no committee or other authority in the order could bind the members to any political action beyond their negative obligation. The council approved of the draft of a bill lor the suppression of immigration, which will be sent to Congress, and also adopted resolutions for legislation subjecting convents and similar institutions to public inspection.
