@ » @ 4 The lational Banner . : | e ——————— The Legislature Democratic. As the official returns come in it beeomes evident that the. Democrats of the State of Indiana have a workipg majority in both houses of the next Legislature. It is true, if the Independents should all vote with the Republicans, it would be extremely difficult for the Democrats to carry a purely partisan measure; but the Independents will not all vote with the! Republicans, though most of them will. : Then, practically, the regponsibility of the legislation in the State of Indiana, for the next two yedrs, will devolve upon the Democrats. A grave and solemn responsibility rests upon the democratic. members of the next Legislature; let them prove themselves equal to the emergency. A ~ wide, far-reaching wisdom, an accurate and unbiased judgment is needed; clear, cool-headed political sagacity and true statesmanship-is needed. . Though demanding the exercise of a sound discretion, yet the election of United States Senator, to succeed D. D. Pratt, is a question of small mo- . ment in comparison {o some others that will ‘(:fiemand the_attention of the members of the House and Senate. First and foremost, is the matter of legislative retrenchment; of cutting down fees and salaries, and of inaugurating a period of reform and economy generally. This is a matter requiring great care and judgment. Indiana is now well provided with reformatory and benevolent institutions; to run these successfully requires a heavy annual outlay. A new State House must be erected, the interest on the State debt must be promptly meb, . "o 0 = ! . There is not so much a demand for . wholesale, radical economy as for cutting down expenses; here and there; a .. sort of trimming all around. It is not _a fanatical spirit of economy and re- -~ trenchment that must pervade the - legislative halls this winter, but an -+ earnest, honest desire to cut down expenses in the administration of State, . county and municipal government, wherever practical. While there must be a'teduction of fees and salaries of county officers, yet the fanaticdl and nonsensical dicta, enunciated by some so-called reformers, whereby a man may be pluced in a situation demanding great responsibility or the care of safe-keeping of the thousands and of ‘the hundreds of thousands of public “funds, for the mere wages of a farm hand or the wages of a dry goods clerk, we want no nonsense of that kind. In this particular'it is a -statesmanship and not demagogueism that we want.| | | z The opinion is hereby ‘expressed . that the law creating the office of County Superintendent of Common + Schools should remain unrepealed for at least another two years. ILet us give the plan a fair trial. Those who should be able to know, best demand . the continuation. of the office. To "abolislz it would be a step backwards. . Though we do not believe, as some demagogues during the canvass asserted, that to abolish the office of County Superintendent would be the death-blow to our common school system, yet let the law remain as it is; . to abolish the office now, without a . farther trial, would be a retrogression, a step the Democracy of the . State do not want to take. The man or men agitating the repeal of this law will be elosely watched, besides having the newly elected State Superintendent, as well as nearly fifty demcratic papers to fight. “Hands off” - from the office of County Superintendent of Schools, for the present. ) We do not understand the significance of the late elections to be “Free Whisky.” If the question of temperrance had anything to do with the canvass, it was this: The Republicans, as a political party, assumedthe cham-; - pionship of the Baxter law, and the Democrats were obliged to oppose the law. We understand the Democracy . of the State stand committed to the .enactment of a stringent liquor. law, and embodying all the good and practical features of the Baxter law without its defects. The temperance sentiment of the age demands a law that will circumsecribe the traffic within thenarrowest. possible limits, a law . that will hold the vendor respdnsible _for the injuries that the use of intox- | icating drinks will entail upon society. Whether this can be reached through a stringent license law, or a law embodying “local option,” is a question demanding the wisdom of the Legislature to meet in January: Whether or not the State can be redistricted for congressional and legislative purposes, by thenext Legislature, is purely a legal question. If it can, let it be done by all means, for a * more villainous apportionment was never inflicted upon a people. It is worse than the old “rotten borough” system of England. But, if done, let » it be done in justice ‘and equity. If the Democrats, now again in power, intend to gerrymander, as did the Republicans, let the.present fraud alone. One fraud is just as bad as another. Let it be done in all fairness, giving to each party its relative strength, ' both in Congress and the Legislature. It pays to be just, and sooner or later, political sins will come home to roost. -—Frankfort Crescent. e e R—— © Elmportance of One Vote.

A correspondent of the Inter-Ocean writes thus of some notable examples of the value of a single vote: - “The following instances have fallen under my notice: * One vote in the city of New York returned a rebublican member to the Assembly, which made a majority in the Legislature for Thomas Jefferson, and gave him the vote of New York, without which he could not have been. elected. The whole policy of the Jefferson and Madison administrations, a period of sixteen years, hung on that one vote. One vote elected Marcus Morton Governor of Massachusetts, in an aggregate popular vote of nearly 100,000. One vote ,el%:ted William Alien in the Chillicothe District to Congress in the year 1834, and one vote subsequently made him United States Senator for six years afterwards. The following case of the kind is still more remarkable. In 1880, Dan Stone, of Cincinnati, was a candidate for the Legislature. Walking up ‘Main street on ‘the morning of the election, he overtook an acquaintance going to the polls who intended to vote the opposition ticket. Stone solicited his vote. ‘We are old friends, said he, ‘and I know you will show a friend that mark of kindness” Party spirit was: then comparatively quiet. The voter replied: ‘Well, Dan, you are a pretty clever fellow. I don’t careif I do. That vote elected Stone and made a majority of -one in the Legislature, which made Thomas Ewing United ‘States Senator. Mr. Ewing’s vote on the question of confirming the appointment of Martin Van Buren as n}inismaglsnipotentiary to Great Britain enabled the Vice President to ‘give the casting vete against it, and called Mr. Van Buren home. That call made Mr. Van Buren, first, Vice President, and then President, and de-" termined the general political policy «% four years. One vote accomplished all this. One vote sent James L. Faran to the Legislature, and made him subsequently Sen-

Several more are ailing, = [ @ b Richmond | Tuttle, of Mishawaka, father of Mrs. Andrew Ellison, of this' place, died on Monday. He was one of the first settlers of Mishawaka,and lived a long and very exemplary .life. Praise and honor to the memory of the good old man. The boys gathered the material for a splendid bonfire on Friday night, in honor of the Democratic victory; but the exceeding dryness of the weather, making it hazardous to have a big fire in the ceuter of the town, led the marshal to interfere. i e

It may be that horse races tend to develop speed in horse flesh, and improve stock; but if the.pool selling and other methods of gambling, that formed a part-of the show here, does not tend to develop a vast amount of recklessness and fraud among. mankind, we are much mistaken. - The streets fof nearly a month past have every day almost been more or less thronged with: teams, as much so, if not more, than during the same time any previous year. Our business men should take,courage, pitch in, advertise and use every effort to improve the opportunity offered for trade. : s

Yes, the times are a little hard, you had better stop your county paper, and not let go your tobacco and whisky.— A good family paper might be of some benefit to your family who daily toil to pay for your whisky and useless expenditures. Hog down all their earnings and your own, and stop your paper! - : :

All signs’of rain still fail. A sprinkle occasionally falls, but not enough to wet the earth to any extent. -, The new sown wheat is suffering very much on account. of the drouth, and fires are doing much damage in the swamps and wood lands.— On the Spaulding marsh, in Clay township, it is reported that $l,OOO worth of marsh hay, has been burned. A Polander V»}S robbed on Wednesday night in a-rather extraordinary manner. He arrived here on the night freight from Kendallville, and, as_he claims, was seized by two persons just as the train was stopping who picked his pockets and then jumped from the car. Search was immediately made, but the robbers had fled. The Polander was under the influence of liquor.

DeKalb County Items. [From the Waterloo Press, November 12.]

The Lake Shore road is not in the wood market tgithe usual extent this season, having substituted coal. The post-office in this place now belongs to the third class—salary $l,OOO per annum, besides thé money order fees. ‘ A number of youngsters, from the vicinity of Pleasant Lake, have »een fined heavily for disturbing religious meetings. = : Though we are much more favored than some 10caléjf1es, much of the new wheat will not get the proper start for a hard winter. .

Baltimoze Road.—Station Agent Abbey, of the Saginaw road, informs us that he sells passage tickets to all im‘portant towns on the Baltimore, Pitts‘burgh & Chicago Railroad. Freight can also be forwarded over the same line, on the most advantageous terms. The very liberal arrangements made between the managers of the two companies, gives Waterloo practically about all the advantages of a location upon the track of the new east and west thoroughfare. A Sad Case.—Charley Allen died at the Central House, on Monday morning, a victim to consumption. He came here during the Fair, peddling -whips and canes for aliving. He soon became too weak to follow his occupation, and in this emergéncy he was taken and kindly cared for by Captain JEdge and. family. Deceased was a native of eastern New York, but had neither friends nor relatives living to take an interest in him. ' He was buried in the cemetery at this place.

The New Postmaster.—At last we are able to announce '‘defig that Mr:O. T. Clark has recei e appointment of Postmaster at this place. When Mr. Hague came to qualify as County Auditor, it was found to be absolutely necessary that he get, rid of his position as Postmaster, here. The person appointed upon his resignation several weeks ago, not having qualified, and no other appointment having been made, Mr. Hague turned the office over to his bondsmen, Messrs. T. R. Dickinson and O.*T. Clark, who jointly made arrangements for the conduct of the office until some person should be properly qualified to take charge. Immediately thereafter an appointfinent came to hand for Mr. Clark, who will assume full control of the office as soon as the neccessary papers have been returned from Washington. | :

TEN THOUSAND ProPLE.—There are more than ten thousand people in the.-United States who expect to be the happy possessors of the ' first grand prize in the Kentucky Gift Concert of $250,000. All of them but one will be disappointed. One will get it, for Governor Bramlette, the manager at Louisville, has announced that the Concert will positively take place on November 30, 1874; that there will be no further postponement, and if our readers want to know more about it write to him.

The story is founded on fact, graphically' written, and !abouinding in anecdotes. The book sells at $1.50.

THOUGH a believer in the greenback doctrine, the Sullivan Democrat objects to the proposed.election of Dan Voorhees to the U. 8. Senate. It reminds Daniel that not many months ago he emphatically declared that he was not a candidate for any office, but had in good faith retired from polities, and intended to devote his time hereafter exclusively to his profession. The Democrat is of opinion that Mr. Voorhees’ candidacy now would have the effect of destroying confidence in a politician’s pledges. Besides these considerations, Mr. Voorhees’ participation in the salary grab has injured his reputation to such an extent that a number of democratic legislators could not be indueced to vote for him.

The LaPorte Herald . *During the war every rebel success was hailed as -a democratic victory. And now, in ‘these piping times of peace,’ every democratic victory is hailed as a rebel success.” :

The publication of such. contemptible stuff, at this time, reflects no credit upon its author. It only indicates that some republican editors still harbor a good deal of very foolish prejudice and that they have made little progress in cultivating a decent regard for the opinions of their fellow men.

New Revised Edition. ’ Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every subject., Printed from aew type. and il- 1 lustrated with Several Thousand En- ' gravings and Maps. :

Tue work originally published under the title of Tar New AMERIOAN CYOLOPEDIA wWas completed in 1863, since which time the wide cirdnlation which it has attained in all parts of the United States, and the signal develoFments which have taken place in every branch of science, literature, and art. have induced the editors and publishers to submit 1t to an exact and thorough revision, and to issue a new edition entitled THE AMERIOAN CYOLOPZEDIA. ; . SWithin the last ten years the progress of discovery in every department of know]e%ge has made a new work of reference an imperative want. The movement of political affairs has kept pace with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful application to the industrial and useful arts and theconvenience and refinement ofsociallife. Great wars and consequent revolations have occuarred, involvinfg national changes of peculiar moment . — The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last volume of the old work appeared, hag happily been ended, and a new courge of cotgi.\ercial and industrial activity has been commenced. ; Large accessions to our geographical knowledge have been made by the indefatigable explorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last decade, with the natural result of the la;l)se of time, have brought into public view, & multitude of new men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, and of whose lives every one is curious to know the particulars. Great battle s have been- fought and important sieges maintained, ot which the details are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take their place in permanent and authentic history. 5 : In preparing the present edition for the press it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down the information to the latest possible dates, and to furnish an accurate account of the most recent discoveries in science, of every fresh production in literature, and of the newest inventionsin the rPract;ical arts, as well as to give a succinct and original record of the progress of political and historical cvents. ~ The work has been begun after long and careful preliminary labor, and with the most ample rest;urces for carrying it on to & successful termination. | B Norre of the original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been printed on new type, forming in fact & new Cyclopsedia with the same pian and compass as its predecessor, but with a -far greater uniary expenditure, and with such improveme: in its composition as have been aquges oy l§nger experience aud enlnrg:d knowledge. The illustrations\which are introduced for the first time in the present gdition have been added not for the sake of Flc rial effect, but to give greater lucidity and forge to the explanations in the text. They embradg all branches of exglanations in the text. Theylembrace all branches of science and of natural|history, and depict the most famous and remarlfable feature of scenery, architecture, andsart, ag well as the various processes of mechanics and/manufactures. Although intended for imstructjon rather than embe]lléxJuent, no pains hav n spared to insure their artistic excellence;the cost of their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of the Cyclopadia, and worthy of its high character. This 'work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed in sixteen iarge octavo volumes, each cortaining about 800 vngets. fully illustrated with several thousand Wood EnFravings, and with numerous colored Lithographic Maps. ! 5
