Thb Republican party made no mistake when it placed C. S. Baker on the State ticket as Appellate Judge. As a lawyer his ability is unquestioned, and his private character and integrity is without reproach. His election to that office will be an honor to the judiciary of the Stata REPUBLICAN ARGUMEKT. The papers that will establish the largest window glass factory in the United States to Alexandria have been signed by DePauw. This, with the big tin mill now in course of construction at Gas City, is a sad blow to the Indiana free-traders, as they had already, by their threatening attitude and war on our industries, stopped the removal to Muncie from Belfast, Ireland, of the large rope and cordage works. Instead of fooling with binder twine, they should have proceeded at once to remove the duty on tin and glass. Had they attended to this matter in time they would not now have this great protection and home industry argument so fully to meet. The Southern Journal, a third-par-ty Prohibition sheet, published at Louisville, Ky., has come to our table as an exchange. The great party we represent is on record for temperance. We boast of placing restriction on the sale of ardent spirits in every State north of the Ohio river, but we know the masses are not educated up to the point to enforce a law that would prohibit its manufacture, and until that time conies wc shall advocate local option and high license as the best way in which to control this great monster and obtain some recompense for the wrongs it inflicts on humanity. The Prohibition party can brand with in-
famy the collection of revenue from the manufacture and sale of spirituous liquors, call it a league with hell and the devil, or anything they please, but the grand old party that has safely piloted the ship of state through tempest and sunshine will see that this great monster is not turned loose in our lair land. With patience, as they did with slavery, they will abide their -time, and when It comes with one fell sweep they will wipe it from the face-of the earth. The Republican party is a party of action and not of words. It makes no pledges that it as unable to redeem, and it knows full well that such a prohibitory law as that party asks could not be enforced, neither would it be respected. Believing and knowing as we do that the Prohibition party has and str.il is —especially in Indiana and Iowa — causing hindrance and delay in temperance legislation by giving aid to its enemies, we shall at all times denounce it as a humbug and a fraud. A Lynn mechanic, writing to the Boston Journal, gives some&cts and figures as to wages and cost of living under the McKinley tariff and the tariff laws that preceded it. In 1846 the father of the Journal’s correspondent worked for 75c per day and paid -$6.40 for a barrel of flour. The son now gets $2.75 a day and pays $5.40 per barrel for his flour. In other words, it required eight and a half days’ labor in 1846 to purchase the same quantity of flour that can now be bought for two days’ labor. Nor is the case of this one article at all exceptional. A day’s labor under the McKinley law will purchase, according to this thrifty New England mechanic, more of any given commodity, no matter what its kind, than at any other time in the history of our country. Will the readers of this article make a note of this and see if this New Englander is not correct, and if so ask yourself: “Why is this?” There must be some reason for tills. Among the many late establishments of industries in our State is the immense tin mill at Gas City. What has become of tise man who was so sure no one could mention a single establishment in this country which had been brought into existence by the new tariff? If he has gone to join his brother, the tin-plate liar, his slanders of his country still linger in the memories of men aad are recalled almost every day to his disgrace and the disgrace of the party he tried to serve, by some new development of American industry. Whoever takes up any good trade paper is sure to find among its news items the record of some enlargement of the working force of this Nation, and one can rarely read a daily newspaper without meeting in its dispatches, its local items and its advertisements evidence of the same constant progress in the industries which all know are defended and would not be here was it not for the tariff. THE STATE TICKET. Our State convention has met and in harmony united on a ticket unsurpassed by any ever offered to the people of Indiana. It is composed of men who have the full confidence and respect of all parties in the localities where they are well known. It is a ticket that commends itself to the agriculturalist, as. many of them grew up on the farm. It is a ticket that commends itself to the laborers, as they know what it is to eat bread earned by the sweat of their brow. It is a ticket that the old veteran loves and reveres, as ten of the seventeen names thereon are men who shared wit's them the dangers, hardships and fatigues of the tented field. The old soldier, though prejudiced in politics, with bowed head will study long before he can find it in his heart to cast a. vote against his old comrade. The ticket commends itself to the business men, as no appeal bearing their signatures Will be sent to the National capitol asking for the removal of restrictions on banking and currency, that these States may
Our NEW TYPE have arrived. We can now print FOSTERS! of any size in any color ink, at the lowest prices, at this office. again be filled with wild cat, shin plaster or stump-tail dog money. The decree of the Republican party has gone forth that this country shall have a sound currency—money as good as gold. That the dollar stamp shall be worth one hundred cents in California, it shall be worth it in New York. The ticket commends itself to all classes of people who will lay politics aside and calmly retrospect Democratic rule in Indiana, which has succeeded in time of peace in creating a debt almost equal to our debt at any time during the war period, and has now by unjust legislation placed two-thirds of the burden of floating this enormous debt on the owners of farms and small homes. Again, it commends itself to the people for the declaration and code of principles on which it rests. No equivocation or uncertainty as to the meaning of a single paragraph, but any child can read the platform and determine its meaning. These men are all from the humble walks of life. Mr. Jones, candidate for Secretary of State, comes from the farm. For many years he was W. M. of the Indiana State Grange, and wo believe he is at this time filling that position. We beg those of our opponents who feel they have no interest in politics further than good government to read and study our code of principles, bearing in mind always that Republican pledges are no idle words, only intended to mislead and deceive, but from top to bottom, as you would read a page, they redeem them all. Establishing and perpetuating good government is a debt we owe our children. We farmers and laboring men owe nothing to scheming politicians. They have lied to us and deceived us in the past by their false prophecies, and now as individuals let us take our time and look up this matter and see where our interests lie and by what party they will be best subserved, and vote accordingly. TUB DAY WE CELEBRATE. Johnny, Get Your Gun, Your Sword and Pistol in Kelter, and Sec if we Oau’t Have a Better Time in ’5)3. The day opened clear as a bell, with an atmosphere chilly enough to give one a relish for an overcoat, but got warm enough as the day advanced for the weary celebrator to wish for a palm leaf fan and a cheap boy to wield it for him. The Monday sun saw a deserted town. Some had gone to the cave pic nic, while yet others had gone to see their uncles and aunts, their cousins and sweethearts, but as chickens always come home to roost, so came these gay pleasure-seekers when the shades of evening fell. At dark the town was jam full and nmning over with country people and a number of visitors from Newbern, Hartsville, Clifford, St. Louis Crossing, Norristown and Columbus. The “Border Ruffians” gave a laughable parade, Geo. B. Stapp sent up a balloon and there were fire-works in abundance. The crowd, as always on this occasion, was boisterous, but social, sober and good-natured. Thus passed our Nation’s 116th anniversary. Will Kennedy was the guest of Shelbyville friends Monday.
