The Ligonier Lannex JOMIEr ZHUeT. 3. B, STOLL, Editor. - THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4th, 1883. Tize Louisville Courier Journal predicts the nomination of Carlisle for Speaker on the second ballot. : 3 eel A e 4 IF IT WAS NOT INTENDED that the electoral commission should enter into a judicial inyestigation oi the points in controversy, why was that commission created? Will the New Era be kind enough to tell? :

Doks the Néw Ere admit the fact that; the Republican supreme court of Florida decided that. the Tilden electors were duly elected and the Hayes electors defeated? A straightforward answer is respectfully solicited!

THE largest and most enthusiastic meeting yet held in the Ohio cam. paign was addressed by Judge HoadJey at Cleveland, Monday night. He has enterad the home: streteh in fine style and will distance his competitor sqext; Tuesday. ;

1r THE joB had to be done over, would the New Era advocate the counting in of a candidate for the Presidency ‘who had been squarely ana fairly defeated, with as much vim as it advocated the seating of Rutherford B. Hayes? o

Has the New Era ever come.in possession of the fact that the Hayes and Whetler « certificates from Lousiana were point- blank forgeries—documents of no more validity than if issued from the sanctum.of the New Era? Yes or no? : :

Doks the New Era. recognizs the Hon. Henry L. Pierce, whom the Massachusetts Republicans wanted to nominate for Governor this year,as a «true blue” Republican? If so, what does it think of +is declaration in the halls of Coagress in 1877 that his conscience would not permit him to sanction the couunting of the vote of Louisiana for Hayes and Wheeler when he fully realizad the fact that a majority of the voters of that State had -expressed a preference for Tildeén and Hendricks? o } ‘

THE New Era‘s‘_hit'ept « whopper ” is

-the statement that "the Democracy. ‘% by upholding the Dred Scott decis«jon, sought to make slave territory, . “to a certain extent, of every free « State of the North.” The next thing we shall probably hear from the New | Era is a repetition of the old falsehood that Judge Taney decided that the colored people had no rights which a white man was bound to reapect. Thousands of Republicans were taught " to believe that the great jurist had so expressed himself in his famous decision.. ;

Wt SINCERELY regret (hat the straightforward manner in which THE BANNER has seen fit to deal with the stealing of thé Presidency in 18767 does r.ot commend itself to the editor of the New Era. He objects to the use of ' plain terms and expressive characterization. THE BANNER may be atfault in using plainness of speech, but what's the use of beating around the bush? Why not call things by their proper names? He who steals is a thief; he who murders is a murderer. Itis true, we might adorn these terms with a little polish and present them in another form, but that would not change the facts a particle. Tell the truth and shame the devil-or, if it suits the Era better, * Hew to the line; let the chips fall -whers they may.” e

Ir THE EDITOR of the New Era will agree to settle down to business, Tue BANNER will take it upon itself to demonstrate to the satisfaction of' all fair-minded men that under the rules adopted in the Florida case, the electoral commission was in honor bound to count the vote of Oregon as certified by the Governor. But there must be no “monkeying” about this business; we shall insist on straight business. In the meantime we shiould like to see the Hra man demonstrate to his readers how it was possible for the electoral commission to auscertain ‘that the Oregon Governor did not certify correctly without going behind his certificate, and (secondly) why the certificate of Florida’s Governor should be held more sacred than that of Oregon’s Governor? When the Era gets through with that branch of the subject, we may ask its editor to answer whether or ‘not the federal constitution disqualifies a federal officeholder from serving as presidential elector, and whether the Governor of Oregon did not follow the law as ex pounded by Republican Supreme Judges in denying a certificate of election to Postmaster Watts and giving .it_to Cronin, who received .the next highest number of votes at the election in 18767 .. G

‘OUR ESTEEMED contemporary, the New Era, has a very peculiar method, for constructing “irrefutable arguments” on the subject of stealing the Presidency. It proceeds deliberately and somewhat pompously to demonstrate that the Florida electors who were counted in through the manipulations of Bill Chandler met at the State capital on the 6th of December, 1876, and then and there cast their votes for Hayes and ‘Wheeler; and that the electoral commission, after deciding that they (the infamous eight) would not eyen eximine or look at the proffered evidence, counted these fraudulent eertificates for Hayes and Wheeler. This is what our “erring brother” of the New Era, with charmwing nonchalence, calls irrefutable evidence, but_ plain' spoken people consider that sort of argumentation a clear case of pettifogging. Ceitainly, Bill Chandler’s creatures met as stated aod cast their yotes for Hayes and Wheeler, bul the Governor, the Legislature, ard the republican supreme court subsegently—as soon as all the facts bearing upon the case could be guthered—certified and declared that Bill Chandler’s creatures were not duly ehosen electors, that they weres pretenders and usurpers, and did not reflect hw!hll; expressed will of the people of Florida, but that the Tilden and Hendricks electors had received a majority of the legal w of Florida. These are lgo facts—the plain, unvarnished f-.cts in l the premises, and all the sophistry ot the New :n will not weaken them a‘

. THE CONVENTION of, represe: tative negroes twhich met last week at Louisville, Ky, was by no meaps a hurmonious affair. Feurhours of exciting debateé occurrcd before an agreement wis reached as to who should have the honor of presiding over the convention. Fred. Douglass was finally chosen. He was greeted with wild enthusiasm by his friends., The proceedings were watched with consid‘erable interest in political circles.

IT 18 sAID that the Island Park Assembly’s expenses were $1,400 in excess of the receipts this year. If such be the case, the managers should receive the sympathy and active assistance of the friends of that organization. The managers’ have worked earnestly to render the “Assembly” & success and a benefi; tovthe people generally, and any shortage ought to be mads up by the willing aid of all who feel an interest in maintaining such an institu tionj at Tndiana's most popular resort.

THE State convention of the New York Democracy passed off harmoniously, and a very strong ticket was placed in the field. "It is said to be composed of pure and unadulteratied Tilden men, from head to bottom. The several New York city factions were accordsd representation as fol. lows: County Democracy, 38 delegates; Tammary, 24; Irving Hall, 10. The administration of Gov. Cleveland was very cordially endorsed. The announcement of the name of Samuel J. Tildén, Jr.. as a delegate was greeted with lonp—-comiuued applause, John Kelly was also cordially greeted as he entered ‘the hall. * John 18 behaving exceptidnally good, this year. .

Tax New Era does not often afford us an opportunify of agreeing with it, hence we fzel very muoh like tendering that oracle of pure and unadulterated modara republicanism a vote of thanks for re stating a historiczLfact —that the Démocrats of the Indiang Legisl&ture aid their utmost to prevent the ratification of the fifteenth amendment. A hide bound partisan could not, a 8 a matter of course, be expected 'to recogniza the difference between opposing the adoption of an amendment and acquiescing therein after being proclaimed duly ratifiad by the constituted authorities. The Democrats, being law abiding citizans, acquiesced in the inevitable, but they vever felt inclined tc laud the authors of that measure for forcing it upon an unwilling peoplé; and we rather think they never will.

_WHAT a beautiful code of morals the New Era is endeavoring to inculcate into the minds of its youthful readars. It deliberately argues that fraud once committed cannot be lawfully rectified; that it must stand, though proof in abundance be at hand to warrant the seiting aside of the fraudulent transaction. We reully regret that the New Era should prostitute its columns to such base purposes. 1a the heat of excitement there might have been some excuse for carrying party subserviency to-such an extreme, but at :this late day the championship of an overshadowing wrong and infamous outrageis wholly indefensible. It would be much more maunful and credifable to acknowiedge the corn and promise "to never again encourage, aid or abet the stealing of the Presidsency.

AFTER giving the case very ‘careful consideration, Judge Lowry, ‘on the 20th ult., renderea his decision in the Elkhart county Poor Farm case. The judge’s decision declares the selling of the couniy farm by the comimissioners and the buying of the county farm by them to be null and void, and ordered reconveyances $o be made on terms. Each party to pay half the costs. Nutwithstanding the’ 'tacg that Judge Lowry, in making up his decision, closely followed the rulisgs of the supreme court, Mr. Platter’s attorneys have given notice of appeal. The people of Elkhart county have experienced considerable excitement over. this poor house coutroversey, and now feel as if it should come to an end. It bas been very expensive to the contesting parties, has engendered a great deal of ill feeling, and as all controversies must finally be adjusted 1n one way or another, it is to be hoped that the treaty of peace may be made now.

“A$ SOON as these men (the infamous ‘ eight) showed by their actions that partisan matters were cast aside in the ‘ settlement of this momentous ques-: tion of the Presidency, THE BANNER threw off its flimsy disguise of nonpartisanship under which it had been ‘masquerading,” quoth the philosophical genius who presides ovér the columuns of the New Era Exactly. The “eight” cast partisanship aside by ignoring the genuine vote of Florida and counting the fraudulent devise made to order by a *“ political tramp,” as Roscoe Conkling characterized Bill Chandler; by counting the forged certificates. from Lousiana, and by discarding in the Oregon case the rule that governed their action in the case of Florida, - Because THE BANNER did not see fit to acquiesce in such barefaced partisanship the Era editor accnses us of “ wéuk and impotent partisanship.” We can easily stand such an arraignment, but are impelled to éxpress sympathy for the reader upon whom such drivel is inflicted : under the label gf‘gigmfled argument. Tue Alblon New Era quotes from ‘the republican -pational platforms of i 1876 and 1880 to show that its party is in favor of a tariff so adjusted as “to promote the interests of A mericap labor and advauce the prosperity of the entire country.” What the rerepublican party puts into its platforms and what it practices are two separate and distinct things. Their professions give the Ameriean laborer any amount of taffy, but their practices accord to him but little more tuan hard bread and water. The general discontent among the laboring classes and the :innumerable and constantly recurring strikes under ‘V'rqpublican tariff legislation prove this ‘conclusively, Your party doesn’t care a continental for the laborer; its chief ‘» if not sole aim is to put vast sums of ; money into the pockets of capitalists, that the republican campaign commit‘tees may have a claim upon them for liberal contributions to the republican corruption fand. This is the plain English of the case, ‘lt may not suit our esteemed contemporary at the “hub,” but it is none the less the plain and unvarnished truth, = |

" BEN BUTLER, is now a doublynominatsd eandidate for the Gnv:m-‘l orship of Massacbusetts. The Greenbackers nominated bim first, with but slight opposition; then the Democrats followed with & nomination by acclamation, amid wild enthusiasm. As the pominee of two political parties wnd the choice of a goodly nuwmber of Rupubliclns, Ben stands & fair chance of being elected to a second term.

‘THE 200th anniversary of the first settlement of Germantown, Pa., will be celebrated at South Band in grand styls. All German-speaking citizens of Northern Indiana are expected to participate. Clem Studebaker has been chosen us president of the day. The oration will be delivered by J. B. Stoll. Speeches in Peansylvania Dutch will be delivered by Hon. W. G. George and ex-Miyor Wa. Miller.

Ir BEN. BUTLER is such a disgrace to the proud commonwealth of Massachusetts as his enemies’ represent him to be, it 18 very strange that so much diffizulty was experlenced in finding soms oue to_run’ against ‘him, None of the “old stagers” were willing to make the sacrifice. This indicates’ one of two things —the masses must *be 1n sympathy with old Ben, or the republican leaders are a very coward Lly set of feflows. BRI el @ e . IN RESPONSE to a telegram from the ‘ editor of the Chicago News, asking 'what kind of weather was to characterize the comingiwinter, \Mr, H. G. h’ennor, the Canadian meteorologist, L has sent the following reply: : MONTREAL, QUEBEC, Sept. 21.—The weather, will be warm open and wet, with little or no snow during thel close of the year, the winter will be an exceptional one with severe storms on the lakes. o H. G. YENNOR. As Vennor’s predictions have freguently failed to be verifled, it will hardly be safe to place the utmost reliance in his latest. f

THE Albion New KEra has not yet undertaken to explain that little Louisiana affair.. Gov. Packard, it will be remembered, received more votes than the Hayes electors, yet the Hayes administration sent a commission down to. Louisiana to oust Packard and put in Nicholls, the Demacrat. Wa have been!trying hard to havethe New Era man explain this singular discrepancy, butsomehow he won’t tackle this enig ma. Ifthe Era man lacks spacein his own columns to maks the desired ex‘planation, we respectfully tender him the use of the broad phges of THE ‘BANNER for that purpose. sz

- POSTMASTER -GENERAL GRESHAM has issued a circular regarding the new postal law, which everybody should heed. It reminds the letter writing public that all letter postage must be prepaid as a condition of the letter being forwarded. If the post‘age is deficient the letter will be returned to the writer, if there is any mark on the envelope to tell who the writer is If not, notice will be forwarded to the party to- whom the letter is addressed, stating the amount. of postage due on the detained letter, upon receipt of which the letter will be forwarded. .The Postmaster General may have excellent reasous for justifying such an order, ' but to our mind it is a very bgid arrangement. Very important letters may be delayed in this manner, to the annoyance snd injury of both ‘parties —the writer and the party addressed. The old plan is much preferable to the new.

THE conyention ef ré.presentat-ive colored men, at Louisviile last week, did not pass any resolutions but adopt ed the elaborate and carefully prepar ed syesch of Fred Douglass as its déclaration of principles. This is by all odds the most sensible thing the convention could bave done. Mr.Douglass’ speech was one of consummate ability. and is about as wise and tempeiate a declaration as could possiblfr have been expected from that body. The objactionable. feature thereof is the somewhut arrogant and impetunus do mand for c¢ffice.. It claims as right fally due the colored Tace.the VicePresidency of the United States or, at least, a cabinet, position. These colored gentlemen should devote a little more attention to the elevation of their race in an educational and moral point of view instead of setting their hearts on the unattainable. The time for 4 colored Vice President is not yet, : L

THE editor of the Evansville: (Ind ) Journal, who is a grandfather, une day when off his guard Kkissed » widow. For this he has been compelled to withdraw from his chureh, resign the offize " of ' post-master, sei! his paper and other property, and move away from the town. Town lots in Evansville are sure to depreciate, and the Journal editor sells. none too soon,—lnter-Ocean.,

!That is decidedly tough on' the Evansville brother, and the Methodist preacher who watched and caught him kissing the pretty widow oyght to- feel a little remorse for getting Bro. Thayer into such a mess of troubie. Bro. Thayer assures an astound éd public that he didn’t mean any barm by kissing the pretty widow. and considering the fact that thé oscillation occurred at the gate post,in close groximity'to. a dz2zzling electric light, we are disposed to take Bro Thayer’s word. Indeed. we rath-: suspect that Bro. Thayer acted in self defense, and in this county there is eminent authority for holding ‘such seif defense excusable if mot justifia ,ble. A different view may, however, ‘be held at Evansville. il

THE sum and substance of the New Hra's defense of the Florida rascali ty is, that the fraud being once committed, neither the Governor, Legislature nor Supremp Court had aright tg rectify the fraudulent count, and that the electoral commission was, in accordance with the republican programme, bound to close its eyes to the truth and simply tatify the fraud. 'The New Era has the sublime audacity to say that the .certificates which correctly represented the vote of Florida “were -80_glaringly irregular and fraudulent on their . face” that the commission “could pot do otherwise than reject them.” There is not one iota of truth in this statement. The commission utterly refused to receiv: or consider evidence hearing upon the subject. ' Judge Black begged the infumous eight to only look at the proffer‘ed evidence, even though they did not consider it, but even that was denied. They did not want to ses the facts: they could not afford to,look them equarely in the face; duty to their coconspirators demanded of them that the fraud be ratified, confirmed and in dellibly stamped upon the records of the country. . i ;
