Our old and highly esteemed friend William Darroch, of Kentland, has been nominated by the Democrats for Judge of the Court for the counties of Jasper and Newton. He is a very able man and would make an ideal Judge.— Lowell Tribune (rep.) White county democrats nominated the following county ticket at their convention last Saturday: Sheriff, George Stephens of Monticello; Treasurer, W. F. Brucker of Wolcott; Clerk, Sam L. Galloway of Monticello, (renominated); Recorder, Charles Kliest, Brookston; Surveyor, Oliver Shessler, Guernsey; Coroner, Dr. B. U. Blosser, Chalmers; Commissioner of Third District, John Ball, Monon. The democrats of the Tenth district are to be congratulated upon the nomination of Capt. William Guthrie of Monticello as their candidate for congress. Capt. Guthrie is a brilliant campaign speaker, a lawyer of ability and a man of recognized business sagacity. He will make a stirring campaign, and if the people of the district are wise they will complete arrangements in November which will enable Mr. Crnmpacker to remain at home and devote his entire attention to his Standard Oil company interests.— Indianapolis Sentinel. The democracy of Indiana at its state convention this week nominated a good clean ticket and adopted a platform of principles upon which every good democrat should be proud to stand. The ticket and platform are winners. A synopsis of the proceedings of the convention will be found on an inside page together with the ticket nominated down to Appellate judges. For the northern district the names of Richard H. Hartford of Portland, Nelson J. Bozarth of Valparaiso, W. C. Zimmerman of Albion and J. T. Saunderson of Fowler, were presented Hartford, Zimmerman and Saunderson received the nomination, Bozarth receiving but 424 votes. Last week the House passed the immigration bill and the Hill subsidiary coinage bill. Representative Newlands, speaking of the latter, remarked upon the evident insincerely of the republicans ia passing so important a measure with only two hours deliberation. By the provisions of the bill, according to Mr. Newlands, the Secretary of the Treasury is empowered to retire all silver dollars which are now legal tender and recoin them into subsidiary coins which shall have a legal tender value only in sums not exceeding $5. Should the Secretary of the Treasury later see fit to recoin the silver fractional currency into dollars the dollars so coined would have a value only as token money.

Capt, Guthrie needs no introduction to the people of White county. He has been long and favorably known among us, as a teacher in our public schools for a number of years, as County Superintendent of Schools two or three terms, and later as a lawyer of marked ability and a public speaker possessed of unusal logic and eloquence. He is also a fjrominent Odd Fellow and a eading Knight of Pythias, His military title was earned in the late Spanish-American war where he served as captain of Co. 1.1615 t Indiana Vol., under command of Colonel W. T. Durbin, now Governor of Indiana. When this regiment was mustered out of service he returned to Monticello and resumed the practice of law. Capt. Guthrie is in the prime of manhood, and will make a vigorous and aggressive^campaign. If the people favor him with an election he will easily take a leading rank in Indiana’s delegation in congress.—White County Democrat. Those democrats who have entertained a certain admiration for the rugged manliness of which they conceived the President to be possessed, received a severe shock when they heard, or read, the speech which Mr. Roosevelt saw fit to deliver at the National Cemetery at Arlington on Memorial Day. Not content with attempting to vindicate the record of American soldiers in the Philippines, Mr. Roofeevelt took occasion to belittle his dignity and indulge in the cheapest sort of demagogism by referring to the lynchings which have occurred in this country and charging those who condemn torture and other violations of the laws of civilized warfare in the Philippines with condoning lynching at home. Disinterring the “bloody shirt” which he had declared at Charleston was buried for all time, he told his hearers, many of them veterans of the Civil War, that the opponents of imperialism had called Grant “the" butcher” and had referred to them as “Lincoln’s hirelings.” Mr. Roosevelt’s whole speech was calculated to stir up the bitterest kind of sectional feeling and party strife and was one of the most serious violations of good sense and good taste ever perpetrated in a Decoration Day oration. The virtual admission of Secretary Root and General Wood that the latter had spent large sums for the purchase of wines and liquors at the expense of the government and that Secretary Root had authorized General Wood to expend $5,000 per year for liquid and other forms of entertainment, while it is quite in accordance with the autocratic and extravagant methods of the administration, was somewhat startling to the members of Congress and may prove so to the taxpayers of the country. Secretary Hoot also admits the payment of large "sums to General Gomez in order to purchase his influence with the large constituency which he is supposed to lead. The Secretary of War has promised to render to x Congress an itemized statement of General Wood’s expenses but there seems little likelihood that the General will be able to complete his accounts before adjournment, in view of the effect which such a statement would be likely to have on the fall elections. General Wood is making his home and headquarters on board the transport “Kanawha,” which arrangement not only proves an economy to the General but also necessarily delays the rendering of his accounts to the War Department and consequently to Congress. Secretary Root evidently believes that the public will forget all about the rumors of his and Wood’s extravagance—also the cost of the Philippine war, a statement of which he has refused to render until the next session—and that after election the disclosure of the figures will cause no injury to his party. For the legitimate curiosity which Congress is displaying in regard to Wood’s disbursements, the administration has to thank “Subsidy Hanna” whose first threat, to make an exposure because th® President refused to order a new trial for the embezzler Rathbone, served to bring Mr. Roosevelt to terms but not before the newspaper men had gotten on the track of a very racy story, and i their requests for informaiion re-1 suited in the resolutions calling on I Root for the figures.
