2 THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL 'WEDNESDAY JUNE 28, 1876.

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8.

A Chapter or History. It is with sentiments of deep sorrow that we notice signs of trouble in the Reputll can camp. The favorite son having been snowed under, his horde of followers are looking about tor a scape-goat; upon whom to ca&t the odium of the defeat. By com "mon consent they have selected Capt. Frledley, chairman ol the Republican Central Committee, as the one upon whom the reeponsibilltyvougat to ret for the failure of the war governor to get the Cincinnati nomination. Mr. Freidley, to the astonishment of the horde, objects to holding the responsibility, and to clear his own skiits will have to let out tbe true inwardness of tbe campaign. To save him trouble in this direction we propose to give tbe public some of the inside workings of the great Republican party ot Indian. To go back to the beginning. Morton's clique elected Frledley cbairmam of the central committee as the leaser ol two evils. John C. New, treaeurer of the United States, was tbe Morton candidate, but wan hopelessly distanced on the first heat. Frledlty was friendly to Br Is tow, but under compulsion would work lor the favorite better than the "other fellow," and the other fellow ;(Colnel Ruckle) was sacrificed by the men who run the machine. This much having been accomplished, the postmaster was directed to watcu Friedley and exercise a general supervision over the campaign. Friedley was soon made oognlrant, of tbe espionage to which he was subjected, and with malice and forethought mainly abandoned the management of tbe organization to Colonel llolloway, who undertook to werk tbe wire, tbe Bedford Saul becoming the figure-bead of the concern. The postmaster lost no time in levying contributions upon everybody wbo would submit to his exactions, and raised a large sum of money, ostensibly for tbe expenses Of the campaign. Some of the more independent Republicans Major Gordon among them rebelled against this unseemly haste, and threatened to kick beyond the traces. Tte major is an eccenric Individual, who believes that there are other men besides Morton, and remarkable as i; may appear, he has a large following Inside his party. The "mighty intellect" under tbe shadow of the bantam tower, by direction of the sole proprietor, evolved lives of tbe great "war governor," all going to show that he was the supreme Intellect bf the country, dis deeds of daring were narrated in terms of stilted praise and sickening adulation, and bis patriotic marches from Caocp Morton to the Union Depot were dilated upon with holy enthusiasm. A more disgusting collection of political garbage was seldom inflicted upon a suffering public than tbe literature circulated through the medium of the Republican State Central Committee to boost the pretentions of Indiana's great war governor." It was evident that he saved tbe Union. The scores of able generals and thousands of soldiers that served Indiana on the fisld of carnage counted as nothing. MortOD, and CoL llolloway, and Gen. Terrell, and Gen. Lax Noble, and Col. Markland and Gen. Macklaud did all the fighting, and should receive all the reward. The dose was nauseating, and sickened the common sense of the people who esteemed it their privilege to judge of the senator's worth by the fruit he had produced, and this fruit had ripened into a corrupt and arrogant ring of office hold era, whose servility and obedience to tbe mandates ol their master haa been as apparent as tbe nose on a man's face for these many years. Tbe Morton cbala was galling, and it was only by patting in motion the full powe'r of the party machinery that open rebellion was suppressed. Nothing Is so potent to a Republican as the party lasb, and , this was applied with an unsparing hand. Men wbo were openly opposed to the " favorite son'' were whipped Into suppDitiog him. While tLIi was going on in Indiana, Morton's emissaries were traveling through the South, bargaining for the Southern vote, and using every possible means to compass their end. Oiher meo equally corrupt were working op the samefield, however,' and, as tbe result proved, were more tuccesiful in securing tbe support of the man and trotber than he. Time fl:e, and tbe curtain rises on a bright and glittering scene la Cincinnati. The boats were marshaled under different banners, and every nerve was strained lor the final contest. Indiana had a larger numerical n presentation ot outsiders than any other ttte, and tbe self-constituted managers trumpeted their boast through the organ that the Morton organization was tbe pride and admiration ot tbe world and of all other states presenting favorite sons. This was kept up until tbe day tbe convention met, when the managers began to realize what had been apparent to tbe rest of markind from the first. The truth began to break In upon them that tbe Hoosier crowd was a bead lees body, every atom of Which was going It blind on its own hook. Every one was trying to do some startling thing, and did nothing but make confusion in the ranks. When the time for action came, the Morton mob found itself without organization and hopoleeely rattled at the outset. Every other state bad walked over the organization which was bet "pride, admiration, envy," etc., and Indiana found herself very much In the condition of a small boy aoaong men, a portion which was maintained to tbe last. That the campaign had been badly man

aged none could doubt, and tbe secretly delighted elemert la taking care that the world shall know upon whom the responsibility rests for tbe way things were managed at Cincinnati. It is not oar faneral, and we care but little as to who ahall be the mourners, bat oar daty ts chroniclers of passing events demands that this veracious history of the efforts to nominate Senator Morton at Cincinnati should be given to the world. A Bffltx of Public ScntlmeaU Two leading newspapers of tbe East and West respectively, in whose character and conduct there are certain points of similarity, are the Herald ot New York and the Times of Chicago. Both these sheets are free from political allegiance and both claim to devote tbeir columns to the dissemination of sews, pure and simple, and to the reflection of tbe genuine sentiment of the country without reference to Its influence upon tbe fortunes of this or that party or candid ate. Neither paper en joys a

very exalted reputation for consistency or is credited with the poseepsion of a super abundant rtock of political principles, but tbe opinion of each is entitled to, and is allowed much weight, as the approxi mately faithful reflex of tbe prevailing sentiment ot the country. It i especially tbe boast ot tbe Eastern paper to serve its readers in the capacity of a political barometer, recording each change in public opinion and abowing at any time just the strength and direction of tbe current of sentiment upon any question of general interest. Leaving out the personal element introduced into its opinions by tbe positive character of its proprietor, the Times pla3 s much tbe same part in the West that tbe Ilerald does in tbe East. In this connection, there is deep and mighty slgnlncarcs in the unanimity with which these two journals draw one leBson from the nominatiou of Hayes. Tbey regard it as settling beyond peradventure that the contest ot this fall is practically to be decided in October; as transferring tbe field of battle from tbe East to the Wes and as making tbe final result turn upon tbe result In Ohio and Indiana. Tbey agree that, in order to success in these statec, tbe Democracy mart che of e lor its standard-bearer a Western man, identified with Western interests, and not committed to a course of conduct bitterly obnoxious to a large element in tbe party in the Wert. Hajes' local affiliations and bis position upon the money question, both make it certain that with an Eastern extreme hard money candidate the Democracy would go into the race badly weighted down. With a candidate in sympathy with the reasonable demands of the depressed and suffering business interests of tbe West, and armed with tbe additional advantage of personal and political identification with a state that votes in October, tbe Democratic party goes into the fight with tbe victory half won. There is no doubt that upon this, as upon most great public questions in which considerations of interest do not bias tbeir judgment, the two leading papers referred to do faithfully represent tbe general sentiment, and tbe St. Louis Convention will commit a capital error if it refuses to be guided by the opinions bo generally and loudly expressed. TOE SOLE PROPRIETOR'S POLICY. HOW HB CONDUCTS HIS BUSINESS ON A REäUMPlION BASIS. The Danville Indianian of yesterday atys: Tbe circulation ot tbe daily edition t tbe Indianapolis Journal is rapidly decreasing at every station in this county, and in several p aces b es entirely ceased to circulate, because ot Martinda'e's extortion. Tbe Sentinel, on tbe contrary la extending its circulation in a larger ratio than tbe Journal's decrease, and mny Republicans consider it the better newspaper even were the " price the same. After all, though, Martindale's extortion is tbe smallest burden imposed, upon Republicans and tbe wbole country by tbe party of which Martindale's hheet is the state oran. Those wbo have quit taklog tbe Journal because the price ot subscription has been raised pay 10 times tbe Increased price for a year for tie flimsy clothes, the adulterated medicines and groceries, tbe pot-metal cutlery, tbe salt, and various other necessaries of lile, which the Republican party by its villainous "protective," tariff extorts from each ot them (and people ot tbe whole country as well) to enrich the capitalists cf tbe Eist, without any corresponding benefit to themselves! Not content with these extortions, Martindate's paper would assist In forcing upon the people tbe resumption of specie payments. Why? A ca-ual re der of the Journal can not have failed to see a notice in that papr stating that its proprietor MARTINDALE, DESIRES TO LOAN MONET A f aimer friend of ours, supposing Martindale eager to loan his shekels, applied to blm tor a lon, and learned t bat be could be accommodated with 4,000 if be would pay a high rate of let; rest and give a firstRiaan mortgage on his fine farm valued at 9.600, and keep the money three years, interest payable semi-annually. This our rrleqd refused t do, but a amber of poor tools have been taken in by tbe crafty de vice. Tbe policy of tbe Republican party is to further contract the currency and force resumption, and Martindale desires to loan his money on such terms as will insure him 200 percent , for be knows that (bedayot resumption is practically the day or judgment and foreclosure. This policy is to be pursued by tbe Republican party at the bebest of tbe bond holders and mones -lender, like it bag done tre blddlcg of tbe monopolists in regard to the protective tariff. It is foolish for a poor man to vote with ucb a party, for it leads the tax-payer to dsvter an t ruin. South Bend Renter Stephen J B itchcbelder, of Penn townsbip, has filed a petition for divorce from hia wife, Rothilda, on tbe ground that abe treated him with inhuman cruelty by being cross and petulant, refusing to speak to bim, and making bis life generally unendurable, while be ha always bean one of the kindest and mof-t indulgent of husband, ile therefore prays for divorce and other proper relief. Tbe parties were married in 18ÖÖ, and have been residents ot Penn township for seven years.

A SALTY SPEECH.

UNCLE JIMMY AS A HUMORIST. Foster of Ohio Attempt a a Little Fun at the Expense of Blue Jeans, and Gives Himself Away. RADICAL ECONOMY. 2CKRB SHAM SHOWED CP IN ITS TRUE UOHT HOW MEMBERS OF THE LAST HOUSE REFRESHED THEMSELVES AT THE PEOPLE'S EXPENSE. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Eo quirer gives the following graphic picture ot a scene in Congress, in which Uncle Jimmy Williams took pari, defending tbe Democratic blander in lavor ot economy. We imagine that the next time Foster ot Ohio wishes to make a sneer at anything occurring in the House he will look else where than to tbe old Indiana farmer. Tbe correspondent speaking of Foster eayt: Tbe prttended friend of reform, retrenchment and economy, he has persistently, in tbe committee ou appropriations aud in the House, fought every measure of retrenchment, and every bill that proposed to reduce a slary. This is tue kind of a reformer Charley Fester is. When the legislative bill came up he tried to manulacture a little buncombe fur cimplu uses in bis own district, by moving to fix tbe salaries of senators and members at ?2 700 a year. This amount is all Charley thinks be is woitb a year, and be didn't think any member of Congress woita any more than himself. Foster hss persistently sought all attempts to repeal the resumption act. He bas not cast a sirgle vote this win ter in tte interests of the people. After moving to cut down bis salary to $2,700 a year, be proved himself a cors'.stent relormer the o;ber day bv oflering a resolution ta provide for buying lemonade and iced tea for fatigued congressmen at tbe government expense. This little item alone has cost tbe people 40,000 in tbe last dozia yvars. .Forty tbousiud. dollars to keep a Republican Congress ia lemonade ana iced tea! Old Blue Jeans Williams said this was nocs?nse nay, mora, robbery. He couldn't sea why the people's money should De spent for euch purpoaes. lie couldn't Ü ad anything in the constitution that authorized a bar at tbe expense of the peoplo, and be concluded, as tbe times were bard, t bat be would Saveiblä amount to the treasury. For this be incurred Mr. Foster's Oriental contempt. WHERE TBE SNEEB GAME IN. Yesterday the president sent a message to the House calling attention to the approach of the end of the fiscal year, and tbe empty state of the treasury. Debate ensued upon tbe message, tbe Republicans insisting that tbe Democrats were responsible for the dead-lock between the House and tbe Senate, and tbe Democrats returning tbe compliment. Sunset Cox took a band in tbe fray and said, among other good thing: "Tbe people do not want those economists who are all the time extravagant and wbo never go forward in tbe work of cutting down expenditures, meo wbo, like some upon tbe other side of tbe House thank God tbey are very fewthink they are starving because tbey do not wear purple and fine linen and fare sumptuously every dav." Here he was interrupted by Charley Foster, who languidly turned bis eood-natored face toward old Jimmy Williams' seat and sneeringly said: "Blue Jeans." It was very funny, and Charley Foster laughed and some other Republicans joined bim. Sunset said: ''It would be a very happy thing If more persons, both republicans and Democrats, wore homespun. It would be a good thing if the government itself wore more homespun. Laughter But what I am referring to is not so much what youput on ss bow you behave. Laughter and applause. I do. not care how my friena from Ouio is dressed; I respect him; I suspect be is ARRAYED IN FINE LINEN, perhaps in royal English broadcloth, upon which he has fixed a high tariff. Laughter. I am too near sighted to see just how fce is dressed, but the reporters will get it. I suspect that my friend is trying to affect Bome votes in Ohio and Indiana in our ia vor; I sometimes suspect bim, owing to some spasms of goodness, as having a little leaning to our side of tbe bouse. I am glad he hrs made this reference to an hone-t, plainly dreased man, wbo has, as chairman of accounts, been taking care of oar accounts eo honestly, and when he goes before tbe people ot Indiana to give ar other account as tbeir man for Governor they will take good care of him. Applaus?. To this Mr. Foster did not replv. He saw that be had made a mistake. He was sure he had made a mistake wben Cox finished, and six laet and three inches ot an old-fashioned man. clad in ja'ss, awkwardly loomed up in the background. It was Old Jimmy Williams about to make bis first speecn, and expectation was on tip-toe. Members hurried to tbeir S'at; ail faced the gallant old farmer; the galleries were silent, and every ear was strained to catcb bis first words. The record Bhows whatfollow in THE NEXT FIFTEEN MINUTES. MU8H AND LOGIC. Mr. Williams of Indiana Mr. Soeaker, I have been here some four or five montbs a silent listener to tbe debates. I have endeavored to do my duty as a member bere in supporting each measures as I thought right and proper. Bat this debate, like many others, reminds me very mach of a circumstance which took place about tbe first yer Indiana was a state. Late one evening In November a gentleman was seen to rein up bis bone at the door of a cabin on the road. He inquired whether be could stay over uigbt. Tbe landlady, who appeared at tbe door, replied, "Yes, sir, it y u will put up with such fare as we cau give you." The gent'.eman readily assented, tor be was none ot your Eastern gentlemen; he belonged to tbe West. Laughter. Soon a'ter tbe landlord appeared and took bis horse and put bim up. Tbe landlady showed bim into a room used as a parlor, sitting room, dining room aud kitchen. The man was seated before a pleaatt fire, It being tbe latter part of November, and over the fire bung a pot ot boiling water. The landlady soon came in agia wita a pan of corn meal and commenced stirring it into tbe hot water, pouring it in with one band and stirring It with tbe other until she got it to a proper consistency for what we call in tbe Western country," mush. Laughter A- Member Ob, yes; we know what that is. Laughter. Mr. Williams of Indiana She then threw in some salt and gave it another stir. Her daughter Sallle came along and said: MJ exp-ct mother has forgotten to salt tbe mash," and so she threw in a lit

tle salt and gave it a stir. Tbe landlord brought In a stick of wood on bis shoulder and put it down near the fire, saying, "I expect ray folks have forgotten to slt that mush," and be threw in a little handful of salt and gave it a stir Laughter. Tbe landlady coming In, took up ber math and set it upon tbe table, and all bands were called to supper. The landlord was the first to dis cover it. As soon as be took the maib

and put it into bis milk, be said: "Ugh! yoa have ruined this mush; you have pat TOO MUCH SALT IN IT." " Well," said the.landlady, MI did not putjio any more thaa I ought to put in It." "The landlord said, "I did not know yon put any salt in it, and so I salted it, "Why, mother," said Sallle laughter, "I salted it because I supposed you bad fcrgotten i ." Said the traveler, "I thought it was fashionable, and so I salted it." And now it bas become so fashionable for eviry gentleman to talk on this flw that I thought I would try it, at d now propose to throw in my handful of salt. Laughter. I want to say something atxmt these blunders which bare been committed, as we ars told, ou the other side, and in such bbarp and fluent language by tbe gentleman from Pennsylvania. I discover one ol tbe blunders we have commi.ted, and I will stand by that blunder, ia in reducing tbe salary oi tbe president of the United States trom föO.OCü down to $25,000 a yeir. That ia a very terrible blunder! That is one ot tne blundeis we have committed. Laughter Another one ot ttse blunders we nave committed is to reduce tbe pay of members from 5,000 to f 4,500 a year. Now, Is that a very serious blunder"? Ltugbter. I tbink gentlemen wbo voted tor that will not find it so dargerous a llunder as those wbo voted for an increase of s:ary two or three years ago. Laughter. Another very great blunder we bave committed is in not increasing tbe py o." thecabite'officers. It was attempted to be increased, and we did not do it. That is on9 of our terrible blunders. I am glad we did , not. Another one of our terrible blunders 1 that our foreign ministe-s are to be starved to death; that they lira to be reduced from 17,000 a year down to 1 14,000 a ear. Horrible! Great laughter. We can not get a man to touch any one of them at 14 000. Laughter. He will not take i a: all; be can not atlord tt go abroad and wotk tor $14,000 a year. Not at al'. Great Ungbter. Let us look at this thing .vita a broader view. We want to do right. We find bankers and I am not in favor of banker?, some are around me, and they are clever gentlemen. I brieve taey are gone now, we find 'bankers can net niaka $00,0C0 at the president makes it, although they may have 250,000 capital. They can not mako $25,000 a year. You can not find a mecuaLic who can do it. Tbe manufacturer who may be established in tbe city of Philadelphia can not make it. He can not make $25,000, not to speak ot JJO.OOO a year, although be may bave an Invested capital of over 250,000. Wby should it be lamented as a blunder that we have reduced that salary from 50,000 down to 25,0007 Why deplore that blunder ot tbe t ox mil tee on appropriations of this House? Laughter. Mr Spf aker, I have another word ' to say. I understood the gentleman from Ohio (Mr. Foster) made some remarks while my friend from New York (Mr. Cox) was on the floor. Ami right? FOSTER TRIES TO EXPLAIN, BUT IS LAUGHED DOWN. Mr. Fester What is It? Mr. Williams of Indiana Tbe gentleman made some remarks from his seat? Mr. Foster Wnat? Mr. Williams ot Indiana Iurelaticnt) Kentucky Jeans. Mr. Foster Not in relation to tbe gen tleman from Indiana. Mr. Williams of Indiana Who did you meaij? Mr. Foster I meant the gentleman from New York, Mr. Cox, laughter, who once renewed laughter just allow me to finish. Mr. Williams of Indiana Well, goon. Mr. Foster Who once boasted bei e o wearing Canada jeans? Mr. Williams of It diana I do not wish to do anybody any injustice at all A Member He said Canada broadcloth. Mr. Foster I thought it was Canada jans. Mr. Cox That was a great many yes rs ago. Laughter. Mr. Williams of Indiana I do not wish to m'sanderBtand the gentleman from O )io. I thought at the time that I was ti O-ie to whom bei Haded I am u tasbaox d of my old Keniuoy j-ans. T peop e of Indiana are not ashamed of me because I wear it. He then reminded me ot a circumstance wnlcb took place a tew days ago. The gentleman from Ohio ( Mr. Foster) introduced a resolution requesting tbe Committee ot Accounts to furnish this House wita such relresbments as baa been customary heretofore. Laughter. He is decidedly in favor of ecouomy. Laughter Now that gentleman Introduced that resolution, aud I want ti show yoa what thet fleet will be wben you pasa if. Mr. Foster Did It not pass unanimously? ' Mr. Williams of Indian It is in the bands of the committe on accounts. Mr. Foster Did it not pass unanimously? COST OF RE PUBLIC ANLEMONADE. Mr. Williams of Indiana Tbe gentleman will not ask questions: I am not on tbe stand now. Laughter. I want to show what will be the effect. I have a memoranda of what happened two years ago, and when it is printed I want some copies sent to tbe gentleman's constituency as well as my own. Laughter. Let me read some of the items from this account for articles furnished to the House of Rerrssebtativee: "Four and seven-eigbts gallons of alcohol, and package for same, 13 10. LiughUr "One cask of aal-Boda, f 26 29. Laughter. ' Fifty pounds tea, S7 50;two hundred and twenty pounds granulated sugar, 25 30. "Two hundred and nineteen pounds powdered sugar, 2519; six boxes ot lemons, 278. "Six boxes lemons. 78; two hundred and five pounds sugar, 23 58 "Six boxes ot lemons, 75; two hundred and thirtj-two pounds ot sugar, 26 68." Laughter. The next is "one hundred fans." Mr. Williams ot Indiana, bare imitated tbe actio q of using a fan, amid great laughter. "Two hundred and thirty-four pounds granulated sugar, 26 91. "Two bundrd and tbirty pounds powdered s-igar, 26 45; six boxes lemons, 72. "Six boxes lemons, 72; one hundred and ninety-eight pounds granulated sugar, 22 77. "Six boxes lemons, 72; two hundre.1 and five pounds granu'ated sugar, 23 53. "Six boxes lemons, 72. Liugbter "Three boxes lemons, 36; one hundrad

and ninety-nine pounds granulated sugar, $22 S3The total la 1,293 08. Now, who were running this Home, then? Laughter. Tbe trouble with a great many oi oor friends here, and I am sorry to sreit, ii that they bare been here so long that looking np ictn tboe galleries tbey tbink the people to ere are f.e only contituf n s they have got. Trey forget that tbey bave any constituents at home. If tbey tbonght a little less of tbe clothes that may be worn bere, whether tbey be of

oroadciotn or Kentucky Jean, and looked a little lees at tbe galleries, it wonld be better It them. But tbey rr quire only to go once before tbe people in two year.; and tbat accounts for It. Laughter. A burst ot laugbUr succeeded every pound ot sugar and every box of lemonn, and as the tall form of old'jimmy sank Into his seat be was greeted with a storm of applause. He bad made tbe speech of tbe session. Poor Coarley Foster looked as It something bad stepped on bim. He was only elected by 158 majority last time, and his sneer at an old farmer's clothes and tbe speech of tbat old farmer won't bs apt to increase hia majority this fall. Pick aw at.
