The Ligonier Banner.

THURSDAY, OCTOBER 7, 1880.

e great many of our people attended the democratic rally at- Albion yesterday. : ! v

| —lt’s about time you were looking around to see where that winter suit is to come from. = .- - -

—This is genuine autumn weather, clear, crisp, and bracing. Just the weather for long walks and oyster suppers. ‘

.~ —Wae understand that Dr. Schlotterback made some assertions in his speech at Slabtown, one evening last week, which he took back after the meeting had closed. . —Porter’s speech at Albion was in many respects a disappointment to the Republicans. He talked fluently, but the arguments necessary to convince and make votes were woefully lacking. —There is considerable regret among gsome of our democratic friends that they did not leave the management of the democratic part of the campaign with the RRepublicans. The latter seem to feel Yery' anxious about it. —A prize was offered atthe Lal’orte Fair for the mother presenting the largest number of children. Mrs. John Line took the premium with nine, the ninth being born on the grounds a few hours before the award was made. —YVote for principles, not men. Every scratch put upon a democratic ticket is- virtually a blow at demoeratic principles, We can only hope to secure the success of our principles by stafindin-g» steadfastly by the nominees of our -party. 9 - :

—D. W. Green, we are informed, made his maiden speech of the campaign at Wolf Lake Tuesday evening last. That’s right, Daniel; wade in. Don’t allow .Vancamp, Tomlin & Co. to monopolize the glory of talking the republican party to its doom. .~ ~No Democrat should forget that the State election is to be held on the 12th day of October—next Tuesday. And, what i 8 more important, don’t fail’to be at the polls early and yote, and then scay and work to get all the votes you can for the whole democratic ticket. - ' ,

—Section 61, ‘page 473, 2d volume Revised Statutes reads: *lf aby person shall directly or indirectly offer any bribe or reward of any kind to induce any elector to vote contrary to his inclination, he shall be fined not exceeding five hundred dollars, and be incapable of holding any office for two years.” s .

—While threshing at Jacob Smoker’s, on Ellxhartl’rairie, Tuesday forenoon, a spark from the engine dropped into the haymow, and soon the large barn was in a blaze. It consumed twenty tons of bhay, eight hundred bushels of wheat, a new set of harness, &c. The barn was insured. Mr. Smoker: lost fully $1,200 by the fire. The threshers experienced great difficulty in keeping Mr. S.’s residence from burning. —We are credibly informed that it is the intention of certain unscrupulous Republicans to vote quite a number of boys in several townships of Noble county. Democrats at the various election precincts should see that no boy is allowed to vote who is not of the requisite age. A great deal of bragging has been done about the number of boys that are to vote. Vigilance on the part of Democrats will prevent frauds of that kind. . .

—The vealy Republican who last night decorated door-steps and sidewalks 1n front of democratic business hduses and residences with the inscription, “$7,000,000 Steal. Order No. 40,” must invent something more pungent or cutting if he wishes to succeed in exciting the wrath of Democrats. The alleged’ $7,000,000 steal is mere bosh, and as to Order No. 40, every Democrat and true patriot is proud of that glorious document. Democrats can’t be tantalized by references to the writings of the hero of Gettysburg.. - —A serious conflagration took place at Elkhart about four o’clock on Tuesday tfternoon. . The writing-paper mill familiarly known as the Old Mill was discovered on fire by a man passing by. The inmates had only time to get out of the mill before the second floor gave way, when the building was immediately wrapped in flames. The mill was 'surrounded by water, but it burned so rapidly that assistance was of no avail. The machinery was nearly new, as the mill had undergone a thorough overhauling but a short time ago. The loss is estimated at $38,000; insuged for $16,000. ' ‘

' —Those irate Republicans at Albion who howled so terribly yesterday because Lincoln’s picture was conspicuously displayed on the democratic stand, must have forgotten what Lincoln said during the dark days of the rebellion, to-wit: “I tell you, gentle- “ men, that if his life and strength are “gpared, I believe that Gen. Hancock “is destined to be one of the most dis“tinguished men of the age. Why, “when I go down in the morning to “open my mail—and 1 arise at four “ o’clock ~I declare that I do it in fear “and trembling, lest I may hear that “ Hancock has been killed or wounded.” —How does the following from the Goshen Democrat strike Bro. Tomlin: “Everybody, except Bob Ingersoll, perhaps, who divides his time between abusive tirades against religion and speeches for Garfield, admires an honest, earnest preacher of the gospel, and is more or less in sympathy with his labors. So also there is universal respect for the straightforward politician, who strikes from the shoulder and resorts to no chicanery to achieve succesd.. But the man who attempts to unite the two callings —a political parson, or a preaching politician—is despised alikeé by gods and men. It is immaterial what religious sect he represents or to which party he attaches himself; the moment he mounts the political rostrum in clerical robes or enters the pulpit fresh from the machinations of the caucus, his influence is lost in both directions end he becomes an object of general and deseryed contempt,” o

—+tjood ‘bye to summer. **Something for rich and poor at Shinke & Brother’s. _ ' —All aboard for the Fair ground. - **T,adies’ Hosiery in abundant supply at Sheets & Wertheimer’s. ’ » —-The flag poles are now about all up. ~ : :

—Our job printing department is crowded with work, but we still manage to get it out. Our patrons still know where to find us. . .

, —Democrats will all rally on the 12th. ‘That is the day for business.— All side shows of the past.are as naught compared with the rally on that day. —The Lagrange Register of last week said: “There.were some very beautiful house plants exhibited at our Fair last week by parties from Ligonier.”’

— The demonstrations at Kendallville, Rome City and Albion amply atattest the earnestness of the democratic masses in the demand for a change at Washington. : - %*We have .just received a full and complete stock of paint and whitewash brushes, also a nice assortment of hair, cloth, nail, lather and tooth brushes.

—A blind man and his violin held forth on our streets for a few days past. He sang and played political songs for both parties, and had quite a harvest of nickels. :

—'The band came out and played a few pieces but the crowd, somehow or other, failed to put in an appearance on Monday evening, and Bro. Tomlin had to go home without making that reply to Col. Cameron. He premises to relieve himself this evening. -~ —Col. C. 8. Cameron pronounces the charge that heonceserved in the rehel army an’unqualifled - falsehood. We are authorized by several gemtlemen who knew him while serving 1n the Union army that there is not even the shadow of truth to the infamous allegation. :

—To the gentlemen who in a card published last week exonerated Gen. Ben. Harrison from the charge of having said that Gen. Weaver was given 36 minutes to leave the State of Alabama, by averring that he referred to one Randall and not to Weaver, we beg leave to say that they did not improve the matter in the least. Randall has been. proved a political scalawag, utterly destitute of respectability, character or honor, and his statement has been flatly and effectually disproved by republican business men of the town where the alleged “persecution” is said to have occurred. Whether Gen. Harrison said Weaver or Randall, the statement is equally false. If the signers of the card referred to want proof g_n t:%is subject, they can be accommoated,

—An unusually large number of entries in all classes were made up to the close of the first day of the Fair, and the prospect is that we will have a good attendance and an attractive exhibition in most of the classes. Exciting races every day. **Jacobs & Goldsmith have the exclusive sale of the celebrated Portsmouth Shoes, manufactured by Drew, Selby & Co. These goods are highly recommended for fit, service and durability, and compare favorably with custom made, sold at considerable higher prices. o

--The Republicans of "Albion appeared to be considerably annoyed yesterday because the speaker’s stand for the democratic rally was ornamented with a picture of Abraham Lincoln. 'We can’t see why they should be excited over the matter. Nearly all of Mr. Lincoln’s nearest friends and advisers, to-day advocate the election of Gen. Hancock. Judge Davis, Montgomery Blair, Doolittle, Trumbull, Palmer, Julian and a number of others whom we could name are actively enlisted under the banner of Hancock and English. :

—Wm. H. Poyser came to town yesterday afternoon, and while coming down Pigeon Road his team started to run away. He -could not hold them but stuck to the lines until he arrived in front of Graham’s wagon shop when the buggy up-set, and everything was strewn along the road in a dilapidated condition., 1t was a very:narrow escape for Mr. Poyser, the top of the buggy being all that saved him from béing killed. Two ladies came to town with him, but they got out after the team had made two attempts to run. The third time was the charm, however.

~ —The speaker’s stand at Albion yesterday was magnificently decorated. It presented a truly handsome appearance. : {

—lf those Republicans who accused Col. Cameron of having served in the rebel army will 'step up and faee the music, we will take it upon ourself to bring him here to confront hisaccusers.

-—~From top to bottom the democratic ticket is ¢omposed of good, honest, temperate and competent men, and no Democrat who loves his party and cherishes its principles can afford to wage war against any portion of the ticket. I.et all Democrats t#ke .the ticket as it is and vote it as a 4 whole with the spirit and the understanding also. i : —The committee on decoration,. which rendered the Tabernacle so attractive on the occasion of Gowv. Lanpders’ visit to Rome City, consisted of the following ladies: Mrs. Leonard Beck, Mrs. J. I. Chapman, Mrs. W. J. Allen, Mrs. E. H. Fisher, Mrs. M. V. Hall, Mrs. Thomas Smith, Misses Jennie Kerr, Fonnie Skillen and Mirle Myers. We cannot speak too highly of the skill and taste displayed by these ladies in beautifying the Tabs;x_'nacle.

‘The undersigned, members of the bar of the Noble Circujt Court, withiout distinetion of party, respectfully present to you as a candidate at the coming election, for the ofiicg of Clerk of the Noble Cireuit Court, the name of SAMUEL E. ALVORD, Esq., the present incumbent.

None can know dquite as well as lawyers the necessity of having such an office held by a man whose legal learning as well as experience render him qualitied_for the same.

Itisestimated thatinthesettlement of decedent estates, and in litigation, the entire property of thie country is in the custody of the courts at least once in every thirty:vears, and whenlit is realized how much of the responsibility ofthis busihess rests upon the Clerks, @specially in this State where all probatel bHusiness as well as liticated matters is transacted in the Circuit Court, it is obvious that. the office should be filled by the very best man that can be selected. ik {iie

None but lawyers can know how much confusion, trouble, inaccuracy and litigation result from a chiange of clerks, and espedially one who is withoutdegal knowledge and experience, /- ' - During his present term of oflice Mr. ALVORD has been so uniformly kind, courteous and attentive to his'.duties, and economicdl in expenses that we are sure he has won the respect and esteem of all who have had occasion to transact business in his office, and it would be gritifying to the undersigned itall political parties in Noble county would aciguiesce in his nomination and that our candidate could be elected as a non-partisan one, , .
