General Gresham was in Pulaski, Tena., when General Weaver was robbing the people wiih fore* erf arms. He sees Harrison robbing tbe people of their property by aseaaa of a protective tarifi, aad oreporing to rob them ot their votes bv means of a force hill. Conseqaeatlv General Gresham will vote for Grover Cleveland.—
{Loaisvilto Tiaies (Dem.)
* Judge Gresham may have decided to desert the Republican party. After coquetting with the Pefier crowd he would surprise nobody by wading into any poiitleal swamp. But the Jadge errs if he supposes tbe country is waitiug to hear from him. Poretbly there are men io public lifehf less influence than Gresham, but their names are not bow recalled.—[Ciociaaati Times-
Star (Rep.)
The New York World makes the noBouncement that Jadge Gresham will support Cleveland ia too present contest It is quite probable that Judge Greshdm will incline to take the most effective method to prevent the re-electton of Harrisoni but anti) he announces his purpose iu son(e unmistakable way, it will be best not to foake announcement for him. — [Philadelphia

If Judge Gresham ia going to vote for Cleveland, as report now credits him with the intention of doing, let us hope that ho will come out flat-footed over his own signature and say so. A repetition of the hubbub raised over his rumored, willingness to accept the People's Party noatinatioa for President would be % very wearisome just now when the public mind is occupied upon matters much mors important

Cleveland;
A* both parties, have presented unexceptionable candidates, there is no reason why tb* differences which exist npon scouomic questions of public policy should bo discussed otherwise than in itood humor, and with entire respect for each other’s opinione. In the present campaign, what may. latrlv bo called the false alarm* of the estiva** will prove of little value, because of the general confidence in the «a!e and conservative character ol both
candidates.

Tbe point of the observation is that partisan attack* in the way of aspersion of motives and ariaignmeut upon the lines of past affiliations directed against such rnen a* these will be in' the nature of a boomerang, This is tbe most exceptional and in some respects the most peculiar of any national campBigu of this country. No feature of it is mere marked than the utter lack of sentiment, the entire appeal to reason that pervade it. Manifestly the conclusion under such a condition of al’a rs is that good men may differ, and gespect and tolerance sutler no infraction. General Sickles and George Ticknor Curtis are not to be bespattered except to the harm of those who attempt it. We feel like advising the party organs -f both sides that there is nothing for it but to “grin and be*r it.” This is not the kind of a campaign when yells and hisses a. d verbal dead cats and rabbaves can be burled at a man for changing bis vote.

The gerrymander case was before the Supreme Court yesterday.

When a similar request was made Mon- I day to the New York Court of Appeals at Albany it was immediately granted, and the following day was fixed for argument. The situation is perhaps not just tbe same in New York as in Indiana. Our court did not advance the case. It appointed Tuesday, October 11, to bear argument for and against advancement “on written and printed briefs only.” This actionjs certainly in striking contrast with the action at Albany.

should be the fullest and freest argument from every point of view. Some may be inclined to criticise the court for not proceeding more rapidly. But it ie wiser to go slow tiiaa to opeu the way to the possibility of criticism on the score of undue haste. It is more important that the fullest respect be preserved for our court of laet appeal taan that even an unconstitutional law be set aside.
the facilities and the accommttdaiions are ot Uio metropolitan standard; stores wh ch we ola e in the comt arison beside the bert in g'rtat cities and find them holding .tin ir own; stores that must appeal more and more strongly to the immediate and naturally contributing population of Indinnapohs as more convenient aad a* ol:erntr all that the stores of larger cities have to ofler. We look with justifiable pride upon the sturdy and steady expansion of our citv; tiie incrcilke of transportation facili* ties; the extension of beautifully paved stn-fts; the vast number of beautiful homos. But, as we r-u.d above, of other f<M„; s of effort, these are of trie tilings that spring from something else; they are laud upon tiie prosperity of our trade and manufacture of which the in-ereip-e and expansion of our stores speak
directly.
Through the columns of The News daily these stores are telling the people of the offerings now made to their mutual advantage. They put it truly, we believe. The offerings are to the advantage of buyer as well as seller now. In other words, now is the time to buy. The “tall openings,” with their full stock of new things, offer advantages to all—not merely to him who is so well-to-do that he cau buy wiieu he will, but to him wjio not so well-to-do hopes f<Jr more advantage hv waiting. Good things are as c.uap now as they will be in December Their cost and the payment thereof cau be as easily calculated now as then; and now there is a vastly greater variety to choose from. If one expects to bur at ali he had better buy now. Payment is a question of foresight; the choice of time is a matter of wisdom; now ia the best time. • To put off necessary purchases .until the best things are gone; to fail to provide for cold weather until the cold wather arrives; to delay thgchoioe of Christinas gifts to a time when the depleted stocks and hastening hours leave no choice; this sort of thing is not from prudence nor necessity, bat lack of foresight. Tbe way to get the greatest advantage in anything is to take its tide at the flood. Now is the time of floodtide in the season’s new goods. Wuat these are the advertising colutnus of The News are telling you every day.

A man of gentle manners . and genial qualities, ol great wit and ; fall of unctuous humor. He bad native shrewdness in an uncommon degree.. But [ more than this, he had marked ability— the ability of tbe gifted mind that “looks before and after.” Of hie shrewdness was bora the facility of management which, united with rare executive ability such as be had, made him remarkable a# a politician, la this capacity he was, perhaps, without an equal here, and few anywhere ware his equal. But beyond tola he had a» wder ef
The Anti-Snap Democrats, as they are called, better the Anti-Tammany Democrats. io New York have decided to nominate a city ticket in opposition to Tammany. Tbe Democratic papers are now saying that this action will help tbe national ticket-it will bring out the full Democratic vote, etc. Well, well! But three tickets in tbe field in New York city has always meant trading. Tammany cares more for the election of city officers than tor anything else. It will sacrifice anythin{£for that. If, to make sure of the election of its mayor or aldermen, it can trade votes for pres* den tial electors with the Republicans, it will not hesitate to do so. Democrats who are getting com tort out of a third ticket in New York city do not know Tammany-thst is aiL

To the Editor of Tbe Indianapolis News: I waste another two-oent stamp to ask if you now have the courage to print the act of September 215, 1890, now two years old, and explain it away. I think you have not. You ignore what you can not answer. You sa d yesterday: “Tbe Government* stands ready, on demand, to give gold dollars, which are ready the standard, for any other form of money. So long as it can do this the nominal value can be maintained. To make a silver dollar of the present weight and fineness intrinaicaily os valuable as a gold dollar, silver must be worth in the markets of the world a fraction over $1.29 per ounce. It is now worth only a fraction over 81 cents, and the intrihsio value of a silver dollar is about 65 cents. But it gives ao monev to the people except in pensions, and in salaries and wares to its officers agents and employes, and in the purchase of articles for public uses.” Do you know that no coin can now issue stamped “one doliar” except the standard silver dollar?
other public debts are paid witb silver dollars, or the certificates which call for them? Will you print the aot of September 26, 1890, and explain how you, or any one else,| can get a gold dollar in exchange for a silver dollar? You know you can not.

A gentleman of leisure in England has just built a*dairy, the like of which has never been seen. Tiie building, which is of Carrara marble, is fitted throughout with electric light, and ali the motive power for sej arators, and churns, and washing purposes is supplied by electricity. The openinmof the edifice was performed witb gieat ceremony by tire lady mayoress oi London.

One of the most significant curios in New York is a copper globe in the Lenox library. It is only four and a half inches in diameter, but it is believed to be the earliest globe to lay down the new direoveries by Columbus. It dates back to the first decade of the sixteenth century. The little it shows of this hemisphere is' mostly wrong and the few names would be recognized only by experts fn mattera geographical, but the globe ia rigotly esteemed one of the chief treasures of a rare collection. Though the Metropolitan Opera House ha* oeeu rendered temporarily uaeleaa by fire, New York in soon to have another opera house which at Hast’ at «first will be devoted to English opera.

His act will be more injurious to Judge Gresham than to the Republican party. The bolts of men who have been as fairly treated as Judge Gresfbam, especially when inspired bv a petty desire for personal revenge, exercises no wide infinenee upon thinking men. They simply .cut off those who lend theta from their 'former associations, crippling their influence on that side without largely extending it on the other, Snd inviting distrust ou both. If tbe President’# vote in Indiana or Illinois is reduced ode hundred votes through Gresham’s defection, it will be more' than the latter expects.—[Philadelphia Inquirer (Rep.) Now certain Democratic newspapera declare that Judge Gresham will vote for Mr. Cleveland. Possibly they are right. Judge Gresham was strongly supported by delegates from Illinois, Minnesota and other Urates iu the Republican national convention of 188$ for the nomination which Mr. Harrison received. This vear the lusty People’s Party was eager to choose him as iu candidate for Prefrdjsnt of the United States. The members Of that Jtarty to-day are Gresham men first and Weaver men nexX Suppose the People’s Party should carry two or three States this fall and should hold the ballance of power in the electoral college; suppose a majority of the electors, notwithstanding this, should conclude to choose a President instead of permitting Congress to dtsebnrge that duty. Where could they find a man who has the entire confidence of the three political parties? Judge Gresham ia the mao. Here is a possibility which is worth thinking about.—[Chicago News Record (Ind.) The revolt of Jadge Walter Q. Gresham from the Republican party ie almost the most significant loos of a single member that could have befallen the organization, but it is simply the logical result of au honest man’s contemplation of the course and tendency of the party. Judge Gresham’* high character and great ability are too eminent to be successfully belittled. He was a more distinguished soldier than
Beniamin Harrison, and until lie went upon f
the bench was a recognized leader of the In-
diana Republ icons. But he has never been a ^
partisan of the unscrupulous ma -hine order, and for that reason baa always been hated by the Harrison-Dudley crowd. He was a sincere and earnest reformer, and they were not. Boor years age he was strongly supported by the'anti-machine elements of the Republican party iu Illinois, .Indiana and other Western State# for nomination to the presidency, by the Republican party. He drew himself ont of tbe contest in deference io bis sense of the proprieties of tbe judic a! office. His declaration of his purpose to vote for Grover Cleveland will have a potent influence everywhere in the West. He ba* the confidence of the plain people more completely than any other Repo blican west of tbe Alleghemea.—[New
