Some Fun.
Last Thursday evening the middle preparatoiy students concluded to take a hay ride. They had ordered a wagon from Loyd & Bivin, and the same was standing ready for their use on the square. An ingenious fellow near the postoflice conceived the idea of having all the students about town take a ride at the expense of the preps. He soon collected crowd and then walked up to the driver and said, “Well old boy we are ready.” The driver thought of course, they were the preps and so drove to their orders. The boys went after all the gMs in both Theta and Kappa Chapter houses and then for a time. They had one too. But as the way of the transgressor is hard one of their number had to suffer. Some mean small boy threw a stone which struck Mr. Chas. M. Owens on the right side of the head and knocked him senseless. He was taken to his room in an unconsious state. Friday morning however he was much better and able to be about. Rea! Estate Transfers. Chas. Shinn to J. S. Pickett, land in

JOHN E. LAMB'S BIG MEETING Vanquishes the Republican Cam-
paign Liar.
Thatbig crowd which turned out to hear John E. Lamb last Friday night is a thorn in the side of the Republican Managers. Those fellows who have been trying to preach from the text, “that the Democratic party is dead” were compelled to seek refuge in their secluded holes, for as with the Irishman, that dead party was the livliest corpse they ever saw. The peop’e tumbled in from the country early and by the time the band had p’ayed a few times in front of the court house the court room was filled. Every bench, chair, window, even the edge of the platform, the tables and coal boxes were jamed. There was not sufficient standing room to comfortably move your feet, and ifany one had have desired to get out of there he would have Lad to walk over the heads of that Democratic throng half way to the south gate of the court house yard. That was not all. When John F. Maloney, chairman of the meeting, that “Silver tongued orator ofWal nut Creek,” in an exceedingly pleasing, appropriate and complimentary address arose to introduce the speaker you could have heard a pin drop. And such was the attention all through the evening except when the roof
was raised with applause.
After Mr. Lamb, had acknowledged the compliments of the chairman he began his address. He said that he wanted to address the people not as Republicans, not as Democrats, but as tax payers. He vowed that two years ago he resolved, if the Democratic party failed to redeem its promises lie would leave it. He was proud he made that resolution, ho did not have to leave the party of the people. Cleveland and Cooper, had carried out their promises. So had the party. It is true -we have not done all we had wished to do. It

Its Absurd and Scurrilous Attacks Circulated by the Republican National Committee, Which Sells Republican Congressmen’s Franks With Which to Circulate Obscene Literature The Illinois A. P. A. Trying to lle-enact tine Ed-
wards School Law.
The American Protective association has at lui-t about thrown off its mask and no longer pretends to lx- much more than an adjunct to the Republican party. In every state and county in the union it is assisting the Republican party, frequently openly and aboveboard, but more often in secret. Over in Illinois the state president, C. P. Johnson, has issued instructions that members of the order shall support the wholo Republican state ticket, although the A. P. A. has a separate and distinct ticket of its own in die field. President Johnson is especially urgent in behalf of those legislative candidates who favor the re enactment of the Edwards educational law which prohibited the attendance of children at parochial schools. This law was repealed by the Democratic legislature and the A. P. A. hopes to have it re-enacted by a Republican legislature.
The Same Everywhere.
But what is true of Illinois is true in gn is r or lesser degree in every state in the union. In Missouri it has prac tieally captured the Republican organ ization which is making a knownothing campaign in many of the congressional districts, notably in the Sixth, in which Kansas City is situated. Here in Indiana the A. P. A. is every where working in harmony with the Republican machine. In Marion county it dictated every nomination on tie county and legislative tickets. Tie same is true of Allen county. And at Terre Haute all the leading Republican officeholders are members of the order.
God Almighty six days to make this earth and then he had to rest on the seventh day. The job the Democrats had contracted for, to remedy the statutes, which the Republican party had made for the benefit of the corporations was a bigger one by far. The speaker said it was not necessary to discuss the McKinley bill, Tom Reed the czar of the party had

The speaker said it was not necessary to aegue the wool question. Every newspaper in this country was a Democratic campaign document; Wanamaker, ex-Post Master General was advertising his goods at great reductions to meet the free wool market. Why the speaker said, “My own wife bought blankets at $3.00 per pair less than she did last year. Added to this the price of domestic wool, which was cheaper under the McKinley bill than at any time in the history of this government, was rising. Mr. Lamb said that in a few years, there would be more woolen mills, and more men paid good wages to work in woolen mills than this
country had ever seen.
The speaker exposed the infamy of the sugar clause in the McKinley act, which paid to the sugar grower a

to the income tax? said Mr. Lamb. They dare not. For thirty years, the banker bond holders have shifted the greater port of the taxes upon the poor man. This benificent law was George W Cooper’s measure. It would soon be a part also of the Indiana statutes. And then the $19,OCX),000 taxes which the farmers had paid for the banker would not again be assessed against him.

Strictly Pure White Lead forms a permanent base for repainting and never has to be burned or scraped off on account of scaling or cracking. It is always smooth and clean.

At th«> National Capital.
At Washington it has come out that the Republican congressional conunittei is behind that knownothing movement called the A. P. A. and is furnishing the money to print and circulate their documents. Already over 2,000,000 copies of Congressman Linton's [Republican] attack on theCatholie church and its members have been paid for and eireulated by the Republican congressional committee and a sum, said to be not less than $100,000, lias been raised by the Republican committee to assist in organizing the A. P. A. movement in doubtful congressional districts. The most recent publication stealthily circulated by the Republican committee is a pamphlet entitled “Popery in New York and Washington,” in which the absurd charge is made “that a cardinal and prince of the church from his throne in the cathedral at Baltimore, the capital of this archdiocese, dictates the political activities of the capital of the United States in the inter,-.is of the sovereign from whom he derives his title and his [lowers, placing the sovereign authority of this nation, as legally constituted, in practical subordination to that of his foreign and usurping master.”
The llepublicunM Help.
Every sane American knows that there is not one word of truth in this statement—no one knows it better than Mr. Babcock, the chairman of the Republican congressional committee—and yet he has descended to the dissemination of such falsehoods, knowing them to be such, with the hope of creating a religious, or more properly speaking, an anti religious sentiment that might be the cause of picking up here and there a doubtful congressional district. Verily, the late "Grand Old Party’ must be in dire straits, when it can lend itself to a knownothing movement which at the best can have but a tempo rary effect, and must, inevitably, in tin end, injure any party that touches it But the paragraph we have quoted is decent as compared with some others contained in the publication mentioned. Here is one specimen of the less decent of the assertions made in this pamphlet issued by the Republican congressional committee. Tonehnig on the government printing office the pamphlet in
question says:
Go where you will over that immense building which contains ’J.-Vio workmen and the air is foul with the filth of foreigners whoso arrival in America is so re cent that the (.dors of tlie steerage still fin gers about them, while the Irish brogue confronts yon nt every step. We have seen men come from early mass at St .Aloysios, drop into an Irish “she-been” in the locality, get drunk us a fiddler’s dog, mid then stagger into the government printing olllce to go to sleep 011 a pile of papers in the wareroom and sleep off thedrunken stupor for hours, and promptly draw their pay when payday comes around. And as to the department in which women are employed—well. for the sake of the few respectable women employed there we will pass bv this phase of that delectable insti-
to the individual. It has never coquetted with religious or anti-religious movements. It has seen knownothingism expire in the arms of its Wing allies, and will yet witness the death of the A. P. A. movement in the arms of the Republican party. To this obscene pamphlet is added the following notification for franked speeches of Republican senators and
representatives:
Literature on the Roman Catholic question taken from the Congressional Record and embracing the speeches of Messrs. G&Uinger, Daniel, Linton and others will be shipped in franked envelopes ready for mailing at $2.50 per thousand copies of the pamphlet. Government franks sold by the Re-!
publican committee!
And this for the purpose of proscribing a large part of the population because they exercise their constitutional right to worship God in their own way.
HOW TO VOTE. Point. Tlmt Every Voter Should Bear In
Mind.
1. Get your ballots of the [Milling clerk in the election room. No other ballots arc permitted to lie used. 2. Stamp within the large square containing the rooster and nowhere else.
The stamp must he placed within or on the square or the ballot is void and cannot be counted. Do not stamp elsewhere on the ticket if you stamp within the square at the hfctd of the ticket. 3. Do not mutilate your ballot, or mark it either by scratching a name off or writing one on, or in any other way, except by stamping on the square as before mentioned. Otherwise the ballot will not !«• counted. 4. After stamping your ballots first see that the ink from the stamp is thoroughly dried: then fold them separately so that the face of them cannot lie soeu and so tha f the initial letters of the names of the [Milling clerks on the backs thereof can be seen. Then hand your ballots to the inspector, the stamp to the polling clerk and leave the room. 6. If yon are physically unable to stamp yoiir ballots, or cannot read English, so inform the [telling cb rks and tell them how you wish to vote and they will stamp yonr ballots for yon. But the voter and clerks must not permit any other person to hear or see how the ballots are stamped. fi. If you should accidentally or by mistake deface, mutilate "r spoil your ballot return it to the poll clerks and g'd a new one. Sewer nir Is freer from bacteria than the a n-.osphere of our houses.
