The situation in Terre Haute is like that elsewhere in the state. The management of the organization is in the hands of shrewd Republicans. They vote their ticket straight and induce all the Democratic members who are actuat(>d by religious prejudice to scratch the Democratic ticket. The scheme has been worked very effectively in the past. But Democratic A. P. A.’s are beginning to understand that they are being

heads of the tickets, recently arranged by Chairmen Taggart and dowdy. Knowing full well the matchless ability of Captain Myers us a stumper, Chairman Taggart early issued a challenge for a joint discussion between him and

Mr. Owen.

Chairman dowdy was not so anxious. What In- most desired was to get Owen off in some out-of-the-way corner of the state where he could talk uninterruptedly and where his broad assertions of alleged facts would go unchallenged. Mr. dowdy had mapped out a campaign of elaborate misrepresentation and realized that i hven would be highly efficient in carrying it out if left undisturbed. Mr. dowdy hemmed ami hawed and squirmed but Mr. Taggart was unmerciful and forced Mr. dowdy to either arrange a joint debate or acknowledge that his candidate was unable to meet the issue. With much fear and trembling, Mr. dowdy at last gave his reluctant consent and the following dates for the meeting of Captain Myers and Mr. Owen were arranged: DISTRICT. DATK. PI.ACE. Kirst Oct. 2 Eyansville Second Oct. 4 Vincennes Third Oet. 8 New Albany Fourth Oct. 9 Lawrencehurg Fifth Oct. 11 Columbus Sixth < let. 13 Hichmoml Seventh Oct. 1H IndmiiniHilis Eighth Oct. 18 Terre Haute Ninth Oct. 2u Lafayette Tenth Oct. 23 Logansport Eleventh Oct. 25 Marion Twelfth (hd.27 Fort Wayne Thirteenth Oct. 29 South Bend Mr. Owen will have the opening and closing speeches in the First. Third, Fifth, Seventh, Ninth and Eleventh districts, and Captain Myers in the Second, Fourth, Sixth, Eighth, Tenth, Twelfth and Thirteenth districts. The hour for holding these meetings will lie determined by the district chairmen and announced later. The arrangement of this series of meetings is regarded as a substantial initial victory for the Democrats, for even the Republican managers recognize the superiority of Captain Myers to his antagonist as a political speaker. In addition to this the presence of ('aptnin Myers will compel Mr. Owen to stick more closely to facts than he would otherwise. Ami facts arc not good Republican arguments (his year.

That day will mark the formal opening of the Democratic campaign, and from that time on till the closing of the polls the pace will be fast and furious. On Saturday, Sept. 22, the gallant Democracy will be out in full force in every county. Such a magnificent array of orators has never before been marshaled into service in political battle on one day in Indiana. Among the orators for the day will be a large number of speakers of national repute. But it would scarcely seem necessary to get people from outside the state, for Indiana's Democracy has a host of speakers who cannot be excelled, who will l>e heard on opening day. It is impossible to name them all, hut among them will be the eloquent Senator Voorhees, the erudite Senator Turpie. the logical, argumentative Governor Matthews, the forceful, blunt and powerful Attorney General Smith, Congressmen Bynum, Cooper, Taylor, Bretz, McNagny, Brookshire. Holman, Brown and Martin; Hon. S. M. Stockslager, Hon. John W. Kern, Hon. Charles L. Jewett, Hon. Joseph E. Bell, Hon. Henry C. Bell, Hon. Patrick Keefe and a host of others to whom the Indiana Democrats delight to listen. It will certainly lie a great day for the Indiana

Democracy.

Senator Voorhees to Speak. Senator Voorhees intends to take an active part iu the campaign and many opportunities will be offered to listen to his matchless oratory. The senator will open his speaking campaign at his home in Terre Haute Sept.

chestnuts out of the fire and are dropping out of the organization as rapidly

as possible.

No Democrat can afford to become or remain a member of the A. P. A. The organization is unpatriotic and nnamerican and is merely an adjunct of the Republican machine. ORGANIZE CLUBS. A Most Effective Way of Securing Democratic Success, The work of organizing Democratic clubs ought to be pushed with vigor iu every quarter of the state. A good club organization has ever proven one of the best aids to the work of the state, district and county committees. By means of clubs the best methods of conducting a campuigig are brought out and adopted through discussion at the club meetings; means are discovered for circulating the right sort of literatun ; an aid of inestimable value is secured in the making of a jioll and the voters are made interested and induced to take an active part iu the cam-

paign work.

County chairmen will find a good system of club organization invaluable in forwarding their work. Through the membership of the clubs they can learn of disaffected or indifferent Democrats, or wavering Republicans, of whom they would be otherwise unaware. Every such one is likely to have a friend in the Democratic club who can talk with him and argue with him when he would re fuse to listen to Democratic spee.kers or to take Democratic literature fnun the

postoftice.

It should then-fore be the aim of every chairman to perfect his club organization at the earliest possible moment. Once he lias it in thorough working order he will find his task very much cas ier and will lie absolutely certain to sc cure better results than he otherwisi

could.

When the tenant was taken sick the negro came to the house with stealthy step and subdued voice and asked after Buekra’s health with many exclamations of sorrow at the answer that he was no better.

BUT A REPUBLICAN TOOL. Exposure of the Workings of the A. F.

A. In Terr© Haute.

That the A. P. A. is nothin# more noi less than an organized aid to the Republican party has long been understood by those who have given close attention to its workings. A year ago it was "worked” in the interest of the Republicans to defeat the Democratic city ticket in Indianapolis. This year it controlled the Republican county nominations as its reward. The history of Indianapolis was repeated at Fort Wayne last spring and the A. P. A. is running the Republican campaign in

Allen county this fall.

These things have demonstrated the real purixise and object of the A. P. A.

names of candidates for county officers are printed upon official ballot*. Such is the provision of the statute of Is'.ij in relation to the election of township officers, when considered together with the provision of the general election law which governs iu such matters. The certificates of nomination of township candidates must Ik- filed with the county clerk within the time prescribed by law for the tiling of certificates of nomination for county offices. WITH INDIANA ORATORS. “There is not a law upon our statutes that has been of real practical benefit and relief to labor that has not been put there by Democratic hands.”—Governor Matthews. "One of the most immediate and direct effects of the now tariff bill will Into reduce the cost of living of the labor ingman.”—Congressman George W.

Co; nter.

“While the continued and enlarged use of silver as a money metal is demanded by every true bimetallist, it is in the interest of tariff reform and freer trade with all the commercial nations of the world that we should have a dollar, in substance and in fact, that will be accepted as such by all the people with whom we trade. Any other policy would be suicidal, and the bimetallist only cuts bis throat with a silver knife.”—State Senator R. F. Stuart. “It somehow turns out this year that the men whom our Populist friends have nominated for congress in this state are men who have all their lives held office, or all their lives have wante 1 to hold office, by the favor of one or the other of the old parties, and their fierce denunciation of their former friends, is tainted by the suspicion that these candidates might still lx- under political bondage had the supply of offices or promises held out.”—Congressman McNaguy.

himself a pretty cottage on the side of a gully, down which a pure mountain stream ran. It was as sweet a little spot as ever I saw. The foundations were good and the house slot si upon pillars formed of the trunks of huge trees. This -man offended one of his neighbors and he employed an obeahman to destroy him. One night in a storm the house with everything in it was swept into the stream, which had become a roaring torrent. Every black man, woman and child stood aghast, and whispered: “Obeah.” Thisoneund that said how they had seen a man “laying obeah” near the house. Sure enough, a hole was found containing a ring, some human hair and a few bones, and the neighbors all said that was what had done it. Some time after ward vv ben tlie place vva.* examined there were undoubted signs that the posts on which the house had stood had been sawn almost through, so that the first whirling rainstorm from the mountains might drive it Into the gully. I nvb- with the colored man already mentioned to see the wreck. As we walked our horses through a glade near the stream, a tall, fine-looking, well-dressed negro crossed the path. His face was positively handsome, and a pleasant smile spread over it as he bowed and said: "Good morning.” I returned the salute, but my colored companion impatiently jerked aside his horse and said: “Chut.” This is a term among the negroes of contempt and abhorrence. "Who is that?” I asked. “A priest of the devil,” my friend

answered.

“A Mohammedan?” I asked, for there

had been slaves who were Mohammedans, whose descendants professed to follow that faith in an ignorant fashion.

eb noi my friend san*, Mohammedan negroes don’t set obeah. The inference 1 drew was that the sertuo gentleman whom I bed ju

On examination it was found that two of the attacking party were killed and the other two wounded, and the whole quartette was brought into Junction. When old man Lane was asked what caused him to bloom out into such a progressive citizen of the territory, he drawled out: ‘Well, I had a good deal of business to attend to up here at Junction, and I didn’t like the idee of being stopped when I was on my way to attend toil.’ One of the men was not very badly wounded, and before leaving Junction to return home old man Lane went to see him in the temporary lockup. •Look here, my friend,’ he remarked. 'I just want to give you a little bit of advice. If you persist in a-following of the business that you have started out in when I sort of stopped you. I think it would lie safer for you if you would look over the way bill of any stage you might intend to hold up, and find out in advance who it was a-carrying.’ Old man Lane is living yet, and is as hale and hearty as you please, and if he starts on a stage ride now anywhere ir.

A Terror to Criminals. M. Bertillon's recent successes in the Identification of anarchists have dra wn much attention to the Anthropometric department of Paris, over which he presides. Lie is the official of whom tlie habitual criminal is most in dread, for he has brought his system to such a state of perfection that tive minutes sometimes suffices for the discovery of tin- photograph, taken perhaps years ago, and to which are appended vnriou- telltale details, including th® dates of the condemnations which the. culprit has already undergone. The ease with which this Is done is all the more remarkable owing to the fact that the department contains upward® of ono hundred and fifty thousand similar documents. Everything is so well classified that photographs which ma ;-- not have-been looked at for years are promptly discovered. Niue measurements of prisoners are taken, and the men employed in this work are so expert that it is done in a few minutes. After undergoing this jirocess the culprit is photographed. UccasionnVy resistance is offered, but this is rapidly overcome. There is ao deceit- ig M. BcrtiUon, who is said, to be the special horror of pickpockets, from the British -Ido of the channel.
