/ SV ok The Ligonier Banner, 1. B. STOLL, Editor and Proprietor. LIGONIER,IND. NOV. 217, 1879. e ———— ——————— SENATOR McDONALD says his political ambition is to succeed himself in the Senate. Presidentially he is for Hendricks first, last and all the time.

Tne South Bend Z'réibune, an organ of the stalwarts, makes a mild defense of the Virginia negroes in solidly voting for the repudiation of “Ole Virginny’s” bonded indebtedness. ,

GRANT's SMILE at the effort jof tke silly old codger at Burlington, lowa, to raise three cheers for “the great American King” was perhaps prophetic. Anyhow, if Grant does not become the “great American King” it will not be because the republican party is not eudeavoring to offer him every opportunity. : '

THERE is but little doubt that most people will agree with Connecticut’s democratic U. S. Senator, Mr. Eaton, with reference to the real duty of Congress at its next session, which he thus defines in a very few words: “Iknow “ what the body should do, and that is, “speedily pass appropriation bills and Sitjomngtc. N - : ;

THE AMERICAN people n:ay congratulate themselves that' Galesburg is a northern town. Grant was egged there by a couple of mischievous Loys, and it Galesburg .by some geographical freak had been located in a southern State, it makes a man shiver to contemplate the uncontrollable desire for gbl"e' that would have seized the stal‘wart organs. ;

AT LEAST ONE republican paper in ' this district has the candor and pluck to declare that “the gold and silver “coin, now hoarded in the treasuary “vaults, should be used in the redemp“tion and permanent retirement of “treasurynotes.” The L.agrange Standard is not in favor o cremating the greenbacks, but it will nevertheless loyally stand by “the party” wlen the cremation process.is once-ordered by the ruling spirits of the machine.

TuEe TrRUTH that Gen. Hancock had no share in the execution of Mrs. Surratt has been made so manifest that those who repeat the silly charge against him should abandon it for very shame. As the Harrisburg Patriot pats it, he had no more to do with the hanging of Mrs. Surratt than with the burning of John Rogers. Her hangman (John F. Hartranft) was twice elected Governor of Pennsylvania, and he has no doubt absolved himself on the ground that he acted in diseharge of a military duty, without troubling himself about the-justice of the findings of the court martial. The execution 18 nevertheless now generally regavrded an atrocious military murder.

IT is a mistaken idea that such papers as the New York World and T'imes reflect the real sentiment of the people of the East in clamoring for the destruction of the greenbacks.— ‘These papers are the mere personal organs of the Syndicate and have no following among the masses. This fact is rendered apparent by the emphatic protests that appear in the columns of influential eastern papers that do not gain their inspiration from the gilded parlors of nabobs and directors of national banks. As the New York Express puts it: “The $346,000,000 of “greenbacks outstanding excite the “perpetiial anxiety and wrath of the “national banks, which hold a mort“gage on the republican party. But it “is. the general feeling of the people “that the greenback came to stay.” That’s a fact, and the men who are seeking to destroy it will be politically buried beyond the power of resurrection.

TRADE WITH EURoPE has during the past year been the most remarkable in the history of this country. The quantity of the products of the soil exported has been simply marvelous; and the balaace of trade in favor of the United States amounted to oyer $269,000,000. The N. Y. Express regards it & significant fact, however, that. only 28 per cent. of the goods exchanged by sea were carried in American vessels. ‘'While we are' prospering in all other directions, American ship building . seems to be sinking into oblivion.— There was a time when Ameriean clip~pers were considered the fastest on the sea and their fame was world-wide {even now American yachts surpass all athers), but the steamship seems to have sounded the death-knell of American ship building. There is a small - and pitiful fleet of sailing vessels left, 1t is trite, and they are models of ship building, but in this age of steam and hurry the steamships get the cream of the carrying business, and the salling vessels are left the skimming ' No * wonder that the Maine ship-yards are silent, and' that America has abont abdndoned the hope of reviving what was once one of her most profitable indnstries. 2 o : i T

Tue New York Ewxpress contends that “the great commercial nations of the world want silver monéy, but must agree upon a standard of valuation in the coinage which shall approximate it as nearly as possible to the actual value of gold. Cuommercial transactions are now so extensive and constant between different nations that the time has come for international money, and an agreement bétween the 'léading commercial nations in regard to silver, would prepare the way to that result.” e

‘THE Cincinnati Gazetle sees no impropriety in enthusiastic admirers of Gen. Grant shouting wildly for “the great American King.” That paper is not far in the rear in manifesting monarchical tendencies, else it wouldn’t have the courage to say: ' “Rather than have the democratic party come into power we would preter to have Gen. Grant made DICTATORFOR LIFE.” There are a good many men in the Gazette's party who entertaii: precisely similar sentiments, but they a e uot generally quite so outspoken as the Cincinnatioracle of partisan malignity.

' SENATOR MCDONALD, according to an Indianapolis correspondent, expresses himself freely in regard to the gubernatorial race next year. His position in regard to that matter is thus stated: _ : Senator McDonald is outspoken for Hon. Franklin Landers, and his counsel will have a vast weight with local politicians. He believes that Landers can carry the State by alarger majority than any manin it, Butif Landers should fail in the convention, his second choice is Hon. Jeptha D. New, who is now in Congress, and is a candidate for renomination. He is not seeking or asking the nomination, but if given him with unanimity, he would not declice _it, One thing is certain: Landers never ran for an office without running largely ahead of his ticket, no matter how strong his competitor. L

- IN REGARD to the proposed candidacy@i{Horatio Seymour, the Rochester (N. Y.) Union says: i “We now know, beyond the possibility of question or doubt, that, for reaspns conclusive to himself, Goy. Sequur;will never again appear in public oflicial life, And we know, furthermore, that nothing is more distasteful to him than the doubt thrown upon his repeated declaration to this effect by the mention of his name for office, and the assumption that he may be persuaded to reconsider his determination and accept a nomination. These facts are so well understood in this State that no one here, and least of all Governor Seymour’s warmest friends and admirers, thinks of his name in connection with the Presidency save to deplore the impossibilities of his acceptance of it. Democrats and democratic journals in other Statd do both him and the democratic party injustice by proposing and insisting upon the impossible by the use of his name.,” This is sufficiently direct and em:phatic and ought to definitelv settle the matter of Gov. Seymour’s candidacy for the Presidency. ;

NATIONAL BANKS AND THE CURRENCY The Kendallville News of last week represents the editor of THE BANNER as being of the opinion “that the fight against National Banks should now cease, as it is better that they control the volume of the curreney than the government.”’ This is hardly a correct representation of the views entertained by the editor of THE BANNER with reference to the matter above referred to. Our views, explicitly stated, are in substance these: : 1. We recommend a cessation of the warfare against the national banks for the present, for the simple reason that nothing should now be done by way of legislation that would in any manner disturb or interfere with the prosperous condition of business. 2. We favor such cessation because we believe that the Money Power wo’d at once form & coalition with the advocates of the State banking system and thus, perhaps, reinstate the wild cat banks of former years—institutions to which we are unalterably opposed. 3. We favor such cessation because agitation for the rext year or two will be utterly useless, and because we do not fayor the introduction into next year’s campaign of any question that is likely to create division among Democrats. Since it has become fully apparent that pretended opponents of the national banking system will not vote for anti-national bank Democrats, we don’t propose to crowd out of the party Democrats connected with, or friendly to, national banks. 4. In order to get the currency question out of politics we favor the permanent retention of the present volume of greenbacks—(we would prefer to have it increased to an even $400,000,000)—und permit the national banks (under certain changes and modifications of the law) to control the remainder of the curreney in accordance with the demands of trade, =

. b. We believe national banks ought to be restricted to 6 per cent. interest and that all bonds used as a basis. for banking ought not to draw ever 3 per cent. interest. '(This, however, is‘a matter for consideration when the question of re-chartering the .banks comes up.) , e ¥ 6. We are decidedly of opinion that' nothing whatever should be done with, the question of finance at the coming, session of the present Congress; unless it be to anthorizethe taxation of greenbacks in the same manner as other money is now taxed, ' ;

e - MACHINE POLITICS. 5 An eastern journal whese editor is evidently greatly disgusted with machine politics as practiced in New York and elsewhere, comes to the defense of the people for tamely submitting to chicanery and deception, by declaring that “most people in this coun“iry are too busy in earning a living “and making money to take an active “part in polities.” The paper from which we quote then proceeds to show that the people take interest in public affairs; that they want to have the g.country well governed; that they are ‘anxious to have all the conditions of ‘ public prosperity; and that tl;ey have ‘their own personal and political preferences amoung public men for high offices of trust and bonor, But when this is said our eastern contemporary reaches the end of the string. Beyond the points above enumerated, into the deep mysteries of party management, the “dear people” never—that is to say, hardly ever-—penetrate. They have no idea how caucuses are controlled, how conventions are packed, how “booms” are worked up, how candidates are traded off after having been nominated, not infrequently by the very men who nominated them. They do not understand how issues are invented by parties in desperate straits, and paraded before the people, and declaimed about until a popular prejudice is excited, and even intelligent men are convinced thabt the issues are real and urgent when they are shams manufactured on purpose to divert public attention from topics of vital importance and interests of the greatest magnitude. (Jim Blaine is a perfect master of this art.) In a word, the tactics of political managers are a mystery which honest citizens engaged in the business of life never fathom and know very little about. There has grown up in this countiy a class of professional politicians who spend their wits and time in the study and practice of political tactics. They have no principles to speak of, no tronblesome convictions, no opinions which they cannot change as easily as their clothes, and no scruples of any kind. Their sole ambition is to get office or its emoluments for themselves aud their friends, and they work with and for a party as a means to accomplish their end. To-day the country is not in the hands of patriotic statesmen, but of political tacticians. They are plotting, scheming, laying plans, and conspiring together to carry points in the political field and undermine and circumvent and overthrow other politicians. This state of things is unfortunate, demoralizing, dangerous. But it is the result of nearly twenty years of republican domination. And there is no help for it until the people. rise up in their strength and majesty and take the control of politics back into their own intelligent and honest hands. Then we can have principle in place of tactics, and statesmanship instead of demagogism. .

NEW CRUSADE AGAINST. SILVER AND GREENBACKS. In speaking of the probable action of Congress at the forthcoming session the Cincinnati Enquirer predicts that the financial questions will again lift up their heads, and asks whether it would not be well to remember that ‘ the democratic party in Congress is ‘powerless al present to secure more ‘than it has already secured for the peo'ple? It has fixed $346,000,000 in green‘backs permanently in our financial system, and has partially remonetized silver, compelling the coinage of at least two millions of standard dollars per month. These, the Enqguirer profceeds to say, are immense popular ad‘vantages in our currency system. The ‘exultant and insatiate Money Power, | which has been on the defensive since the Democracy obtained control of the ‘Cengress, will this winter assume an laggressive attitude. They will attempt to retake the citadels that have been captured by the people. John Sherman and his party will demand that the coinage of silver be stopped, or left to ‘his discretion. There is already a demand in the press, seconded by some ‘journals of democratic professions, for the anunihilation of the greenbacks and the substitation of National Bank notes in their place. There will be a demand that the tax on National Bank eirculation and op State Bank: eirculation be alike removed, and the attempt will be vigorously made to ' log-roll this through Congress. The South wants State Bank money; the National Banks want to make more money. These interests may unite, The fijends of currency reform will be kept busy defending'the advantages ‘they have gained, even if they do not endeayer to capture other fortifications, while the Ppath to them leads through the hostile White Houtse. Tuw'BANNER: fully agrees with the Bnquirer ini saying: “Let us hold the forts we have. Let the Congress give us little legislation, that iitfl?"q swmmical ‘Let; if possible, some simple revenue and tariff réforms be secured. A Gueat radical .géémz es can, not be, secured. Liek taxabion be teduced. Let the people’ {qgf;ignion already accomplished by‘% he democratic party, be tenaciously defended”.,

SPEAKING of the unveiling of the Gen. George H. Thomas statue at Washington last week, a contemporary fitly observes: “Let the brave men who fought well for their country be honored. And a grateful and greit people should remember the heroic common soldier who gave health and limb and fortune to the cause, as well as the generals whose names are emblazoned on the scroll of fame.”

THE Evansville Tribune is a staunch republican organ, but it does not take kindly t» the Africanization s‘fheme concocted by the more desperate leaders of its party. Iln arecent issue that paper expressed itself on this subject in language as follows: : ‘“The Tribune has more than once expressed the sentiments of the republican party of Indiana by the statement in the most positiye terms that Indiana has no room for the shiftless, lazy, vicious negroes of the south.”?

WHERE THE BLAME BELONGS. IN old Virginia, the mother of the early Presidents, had, at the recent election, the question of repudiation of her debts, and the repudiators carried the day by a small majority. How are the mighty fallen! Not a cent of her debt was contracted under republican state administration. The debt contfracting and repudiating is-altogether a family matter in the democratic family.— LaGrange Standard.

The editor of the Standard is, if we mistake not, President of a Sunday Schoo! Congress, and therefore presumed to be thoroughly familiar with the injunction of the decalogue, “Thou 'shalt not bear false testimony.” Yet he proclaims to a confiding public that “the debt contracting and repudiating “is‘altogether a family matter in the democratic family.” Let us see about this: The latest revision ot the Virginia election returns shows that 65 “debt payers” and 75 “readjusters” have been chosen to the Legislature. This result is mainly due to the Republicans, who in most parts of the State sided with the “readjisters ” with the magnanimous design of dividing the Democrats and holding the balance of political power, Twenty-one Republicans have been chosen to the Legislature, thirteen of whom are colored and nearly all of whom are *readjusters.” In most of the important towns except Norfolk and Petersburg the “debt-pay-ers” prevailed. DBut in the rural districts it was not .hard for demagogues to persuade the simple minded negroes that the debt was a slaveholder’s debt and there was no obhgation to pay it under the new order of things. This noble alliance of the Republicans of Virginia and the “readjusters” does not look much like “a family matter in “the democratic family,” but on the contrary serves toshow what stuff “republicanism” in the South is made of and the base uses to which it can be put. With a staunch Democrat like Gov. Halliday in the gubernatorial chair thers is but little danger of this alliance doing much mischief.

TAKING THE CENSUS, - A. P. Ferry, formerly editor of the Wabash Plaindealer, aspires to the position of Supervisor of the Sixth census district composed of the counties of Allen, Blackford, DeKalb, Elkhart, Grant, Huntington, Jay, Koseciusko, Lagrange, Noble, Steuben, Wabash, Wells and Whitley. Congressmen Cowgill and Baker will in all probability control thig,appointment. The former favors the appointment of Mr. Ferry, and will probably succeed. The law provides that the enumerators’ districts shall be limited to every 4,000 of population, estimated from the census of 1870, and may, at the discretion of the superintendent, be restricted to every 2,000, in large cities. A Washington special states that Sup’t Walker will limit enumerator’s districts to about 2,000 linhabitants, according to the census of 1870. This basis would give Indiana about 1,475 enumerators. Superintendent Walker says, all things being equ‘al‘, supervisors of each district wil! beichosen from the most central town in the district, that enumer|ators may be the more conveniently handled. There will be many disappointed applicants, as the sapervisors ‘must be men of the highest character and thoroughly reliable. There will be 150 supervisors in the United States. Each supervisor will be paid $5OO in full for services and expenses, with clerk hire at the discretion of the department. The work which these supervisors now do was formerly done by the United States miarshals, and the judicial’ disttict;s; were taken as ‘enumerating districts, - There will be 20,000 persons engaged in the cénsus work during the month'of June. The cost of the census s limited to $3,000, 000, This .census -will -be the most ‘_‘dompl‘ete‘ statistical report ‘ever taken 1d this coutitry. Up to 1850 only heads 12 T NN CTRADTEE PO G b i e | of fangilies weraransmfi,xwygfiga cen: sus being: taken aecording tQ the con-. stitution’ merely to determine the po--litical répreséntation, In 1850 thelaw was changed, providing for the tuking ‘of the name; s&x; age, color, birthplace ‘and occupation of each person, and now the abifity 1o read and write is inéludod. .

THEe Springfield (Mass.) Republican says the senseless outery of the Syndicate organ of New York to get rid of the greenbacks is too much like their attempt to prevent the restoration of silver to be heeded. -

A MilsslsslPPl ex-rebel has come out for Grant and an Embpire. Several Georgians of like antecedents have al--80 declared for Grant. It is believed that a good many Southerners who are enthusiastic for “the flag and an appropriation” will join the Grant movement.

DRIVEN WELLS AND STATE RIGHTS. To all those of our republican friends who recently received a circular trom J. E. Franklin, threatening suit in the U. 8. Court in case of neglect or refusal to pay $5 royalty on all driven wells within thirty days, we commend the thoughtful perusal of the following from last week’s LaPorte Argus:

The owners of driven wells are being notified in all parts of the State to send ten dollars to the patentee, or they will be sued in the United States Court. This would be an outrageous thing to put so many people to the expense of going to Indianapolis to defend themselves in the Federal Courts. even if they could get a speedy trial, but everybody understands’the delays that are sure to follow an actionin these courts. It may be asked why these cases are not tried in the courts at home? Why, bless your soul, that would be “State rights,” and, according to republican teaching, those who favor such things as that are opposed to the National Government, and in favor of the Southern Confederacy. Don’t you see? It is very plain that nation could not be spelled with a capital “N”’ if the courts of the State were given such cases to try in preference to the Federal courts. No truly loyal man can object to being dragged off 'to Indianapolis to be sued for ten dollars, simply because he could as well be sued at home. Of course: not. Nobody but rebel sympathizers and Rebel Brigadiers would prefer to be sued at home. That would be altogether too much like local self-government, or ‘*State Rights,” and people who are sued for every trivial oftense in the Federal courts should remember that this is a NATION, and to prefer to be sued at home is the rank‘est ‘“‘States’ Rights treason.”: That is the logic of the republican talk about a stronger government at Washington, and the condemmnation of local self-government implies just this sort of a government for the people. It means a government that does away with the right of the people to elect their local officers and to control their home affairs, and substitutes national laws and national officers, appointed by a partisan President, to control them. The drive well cases will give the people of Indiana a very fair idea of what a stronger government means. It is only one little straw that illustrates the way the republican wind is blowing. Perhaps when theseillustrations become more plentiful the mass of Republicans will begin to open their eyes to the fact that the bugbear of rebellion and disloyalty was ver{ successfully used to blind them to their real interests. We say, perhaps, it will. In the meantime such Republicans as are called to Indianapolis to defend themselves against little ten-dollar law-suits, should reinember that they have heretotore appeared to be in favor of Federal rule, and opposed to the democratic idea that this is a nation, with all the rights necessary to maintain its existence, and to protect all its parts from internal or external foes, but that it is also a government that gives the people of the several States theright to control their domestic affairs, subject only to the restrictions imposed by the constitution,

TEXAS LEXNTTER. ‘ JEFFERSON, TEX., Nov. 20, 1879. EplTtor BANNER:—As I have emigrated to the “Lone Star’’ State I thought perhaps a letter in the columns of your paper might be interesting to some of the readers as well as acceptable to you. I have been here over a month and like it very well, The climate is very pleasant with the exception of a “Norther”” now and then. Such a mild fall has not been since 1846. This city is situated in the eastern part of the State and about 40 miles from Red river, from which originates a bayou and admits of boats in high water, which is in winter and spring. This bayou was the means of making this some few years ago the second best city in the State, being the only shipping point in eastern Texas, but time has brought a change. Railroads have been built by which shipping can be done and Jefferson is not the thriving city it ohce was; yet it is the largest cotton market in this part of the State, and few places excel it in business. The soil in this part is sandy with fine timber and the supposition would be that it is very poor; yet it produces largé crops of cotton, which is the principal product. There are some large cotton houses here and the largest purchase by one man in one day exceeds 1,000 bales, The new compress so far this season has presséd over 10,000 Bales preparatory for shipping. Business or busy season is from September until May. There seem to be some very favorable openings for persons with a little money. The people are very clever and the same as elsewhere. Society is better here than in new places, good churches and everything to promote good society. THE BANNER is a welcome letter from my Hoosier home every week and could not well do without it and whenever I find the little “x” on the margin I'will remit the required amount. Yours truly, : l ; WiLL. S. THOMAS,

Driven Wells. The people of Marshall county are organizing to resist in the courts the demands of the Driven Well Company. Mr. Green claims a royalty of $lO, upon all driven wells in this county.— What our people will do, we are not prepared to say. We rather think from, what we hear there is .trouble brewing over the matter and there will be here, like in Marshall eonnty, an organized resistance to the claim. Some years ago Mr. Starr & Adams drove a number of these wells in“this and Fulton ‘county. Green, who ficfaim_s .the Toyalty, came here and threatened suit and Starr and. Adams. compromised: ‘the matter and’ paid for all the welis: they had driven. Starr paidabout $95 for ‘wellg/in this county and s§s for ‘Fulton ' county.
