TaE demogratic congressional convention held‘%f Goshen Wednesday of last week, was a large and enthusiastic affair. : z

Tae demoeratic party is in. favor of protection to American labor. It is opposed to bounties to monopolies. at the expense of labor. :

MaJjor CALkINs has made himself golid with the ““machine’’ by delivering a red hot Harrison speech at the Indianapolis ratification meeting. - ’

I GIvE to the American mechanic himself the credit tor the proud position which he occupies to-day among the artisans of the world. —Gov. HriLL.

ABRAHAM LiNcoLy advocated a gov- ’ ernment of the ‘People, for the people and by.th'e‘ people. The republican platform advocates a government of the monopolies, for the monopolies and by the monopolies. e

Tae Goshen News appears to have taken a fancy to Gen, Milo Smith Hascall as a candidate for Congress. If the general doesn’t make a better stagger at running for Congress than he did in 1870, the News will wish 1t hadn’t taken up the cudgel for its townsman. : s :

THE people of this Republic have acquired -confidence in the democratic ‘party, and desire its continuance in power. The country wants peace, prosperity, lower taxation, fair wages, wider markets, freer commerce and good government administered by honest men.—Gov. HiLL. ' X

Tue Indianapolis News, an independent paper with strong republican proclivities, advocates the election of Benjamin Harrison to the Presidency, but favors the. election. of Congressman Bynum®and of other democratic candidates for Congress on account of the tariff. The News is opposed. to the protection theory in general. ;

- It 18 EsTiMATED that 15,000 people participated mm the Cleveland and Thurman ratification meeting held under the auspices of the County Democracy in the city of New York, last Thursday night. Speaker Carlisle and Gov. Hill were the principal speakers. The latter was tendered a grand ova" tion. David B. Hill is indeed the idol of the New York Democracy.

THE EMANCIPATION of industry from monopoly trammels will bring with it a mighty relief to American business interests. To financiers and manufacturing capitalists, as well as to skilled workmen and their helpers, the democratie policy opens the only path of safety and prosperity. That pelicy is not free trade, but freer -trade, giying remunerative employment to all who are willing to do an honest day’s work for a fair day’s wages.

Hox. ANDrREW ANDERSON, of South Bend, whq up to 1884 was a leading Republican ot that city but ‘“‘mugwumped™ because he could not stand Blaineistn, says he can not support Harrison and Morton ‘and will support Cleveland and Thurman. He is a pronounced revenue reformer, and -Bays he will hereafter affiliate with the Democrats. Several other South Benders, who formerly acted with the -Republicans, will pursue a similar 00, e o

IT 18 NOT PROPOSED fo entirely reheve the country of this taxation. It must be extengively continued as the ‘source of the Government’s income; “and in a readjustment of our tariff the interests of American labor engaged " in. manufdeture should be carefully _considered as well as the preservation of our manufastarers. It may be call“ed protection, or by any other name, Wmm“‘“wﬁmdw g L soronts, P’ i"‘i IR p 8. ‘Kf"‘am‘gni‘m} i s S R T A “;‘?ﬁ’b ;%@%@ﬁ‘ﬁ*ﬁ@%e

THERE is a general demand,throughout the country, for a decént campaign. The whippersnappers and yawpers, however, are as nasty as ever.

Democracy advocates and ‘enforces protection to industry, but ‘denounces and prevents bounty to monopoly. Republicanism promotes bounties to corrupt monopolies and leaves honest industry to take care of itself as best it can. But the bounty that builds up ‘the monopoly enables it to ' dictate lits own terms to industry, and so honest labor goes to the wall. = As Gov, Hill ‘says,. when a dozen employers want to hire 'a workman, the workman secures good:wages. When there is only one employer, he fixes the rate of wages, and fhe workman gets poor pay. The republican monopoly and trust system decveases the number of employers and creates a monopoly over the labor market as well as over other markets. It means low wages and | work only when the monopolies choose to give it, instead of the high wages and steady jobs that result from brisk business and lively competition. " \

THE DECLARATION of ex-Mayor Seth Low, of Brooklyn, N. Y., that he will support Cleveland and Thurman is important, not simply on account of Mr. Low’s‘commanding position in the republican party, but because he represents a large and. eonscientious element which four years ago supported Blaine, but will this year vote for Cleveland. This element is very strong among the commercial classes of the country, and includes not only employers, but all grades of employees. Three years of successful administration have completely removed all ground for timidity' on the part of those naturally conservatiye citizens, and make it a logical necessity as well as a plain duty for them to take the democratic side in the pending election. Their commercial interests and general intelligence naturally lead them to opposition to the republican scheme of monopoly tariff for the sake of monopoly only, :and, like Mr. Low, they will now, relieved of all fears, conscientiously follow their principles and vote and work with unanimity for the election of the democratic national candidates. ;

WHY CALIFORNIA IS DOUBTFUL. Atlanta Constitution, Chicago Dispatch. I had a talk with- M. H. DeYoung, the well-known San Francisco editor, on Saturday, just before he had been called into conference, representing Blaine’s interest, with a few leaders representing the other candidates. Harrison had made a heavy gain that morning, receiving 217 votes against 94 on the third ballot Friday evening, and his friends hoped to have the conference agree on him. DeYoung said: It is absurd to talk of agreeing on Harrison; he can not carry the Pacific coast, nor can he carry several other States, which would be Republican, on account of his record on the Chinese question. = The labor vote will be against him and California will never support a man who voted against the Chinese bill and every phase of the Chinesza treaty.” Further than this, he voted tonaturalize Chinamen and give them the right of sufirage, and Allison did the same thing. 1f either of these two dare nominated, we might as well give up the fight in California.’’ ‘

CHICAGO TRIBUNE ON HARRI- - " SON. : Republican Paper. : ’ Harrison, unpopular at home, disliked abroad; not supported by any German newspaper, or recognized by any | German leader in the United States; not numbering among hisclose friends one man who ever served with him in the seng#é of the United States; hated in. California because he voted fourteen times against the restriction of Chinese immigration; opposed in his own state because he is cold and distant in his manners and identified with every public act that has ever been adopted which could wound the sensilbilities of vofers not numbered among his Bwn particular clique in the republican party; h%ng strong support, among politicians, =~ but little among the rank and file of the paity; never elected to.any office save that of the reporter of the supreme court by the popular vote, and it is not probable that he ever will be; the residuary legatee of the presidens of the New York central railroad.

! CHAIRMAN BARNUM. THk BANNER joins its esteemed contemporary, the New York Star, in congratulating ‘““the democratic party on the fact that Hon. William H. Barnum has consented to continue to serve as chairman of the national democratic committee. S : *Had Senator Barnum persisted in his intention to retire from the active service of the party as the head of its forees, the Democracy would have suffered a very severe loss. Becoming Ich:§i:man immediately after the election of 1846, his sound judgment, strong will and Indefatigable devotions to our cause have played a most important part in securing: the triumph of domoctatic principles _{'Senator Barnum’s long and most distinguished service gave to him the veteran's right 6o oclaim . retirement from the chief position of actiye comTho 01l of bis privaie Intersta ware that i theds daye of Demiootady's o s mighths it st R T R R TR N R

ly gratified that their urgency has’preiee e e “There is no one that could have fully replaced Senator Barnum in this exigency, and every true Democrat will feel a stronger assurance of overwhelming victory from the knowledge that his prudent and resolute hand is to remain at the helm.” ' . The selection of Simon P. Sheerin, of Indianapolis, as secretary of the national committee, is also a move in the right direction. It may be aceepted as an indication that Indiana is not to be “‘abandoned” in this year’s contest.

~ THE NEWSPAPER OF THE DAY. - An Earnest Plea in Favor of Decency S : '~ in Polities, . (Synopsis of an Addreds delivered in the Opera House at Goshen, by J. B. StoLL, at the annual meeting of Northern Indiana Editors, June 28, 1888:) ~ American’s greatest, most renowned and most conscientious journalist, the lamented - Horace Greeley, once said: ¢ A newspaper is not altogether printed to tell the people what they would like to hear; it has to givea. good deal of space fo teaching them what they ought to know.” “hauncey M. Depew, the famous and eloquent after-dinner orator of New York, recently remarked that among the vast number of busy people inhabiting Gotham there was but one out of 5,000 who did their own thinking: that the rest depended upon the public press for their opinion on .questions of public concern. » R While it is hardly to be presumed that this estimate would hold good as to the smaller towns and cities of this great country, it is no exaggeration to say that a yery large proportion of our population in the main depend upon the public press for the formulation of their opinions. Such being the case, the position of editor of & newspaper at once becomes one of extraordinary imporfance and responsibility. Above everything else he ought to be a man of honest purposes, fairminded, of breadth of mind and of discriminating ju(ll\?ment. ; ew questions of vital importance to the people are constantly pressing to the front. They require careful, candid consideration and discussion. It may be a question of finance to-day, of surplus to-morrow, and something else the next day. To do justice to his constituency—the - reading public—the great educator, who molds public opinioh, should not only have the ability but also ample facility for giving the general reader the benefit of his investigations. i _ The press, as arule, is a reflex of the locality in which it is published. An intelligent, order-loving community can generally point to one or more creditable and entirely acceptable newspapers. If the community be base and: vicious, the evidence thereof is generally quite visible through the columns of its press. & One of the abominations of the press is that intense and intolerant, partisanship which assumesthe right and privilege to vilify those of opposite political opinion. There can be no greater or more pernicious abuse of the liberty of the press than that of maliciously and vindictively assailing those who may entertain views that do not happen to coincide with those of the individual in charge of a newspaper. The right to ireely and fearlessly discuss questions of public policy is not to be disputed; but the pragtice of substituting billingsgate and vituperation for arrument cannot be too strongly condemned. What an abomination this perversion of the prerogatives of the press is, anyway. The fairminded journalist, he who aims to record the happenings of his locality, will aim above everything else to be truthful in conveying such intelligence to his %eaders. A report of a republican convention or kindred gathering ought to be as fair and tyuthful in the paper of opposite politics ‘as in the one espousing the principles of that party, and vice versa. If the ed-, itor feels like commenting on or criti‘cising the action of such convention, that is his unquestioned and unquestionable privilege; but a truthful report is demanded by every consideration of decency and justice. . Error may be more suceessfully com-. bated by‘the power of righteous ecriticism than by all the vindictiveness and villification of the newspaper scold. | There is. no more _selg)e in hating your fellow citizen on account of political differences than therels in hating him because he entertains religious. views from which you dissent. - f Intolerance is the bane of American politics. , ‘ 1t is a most auspicious sign of the times that the great journals of the United States which’ show the highest degree of fairness and truth enjoy the most extensive circulation and command the greatest influence. ‘ - The paper that refuses to lie for a friend or to lie about an enemy is the paper that may safely be accepted as a guidhe to formulating opinions based on truth.

The ideal American newspaper is that which impartially and truthfully records the eyents of the day and discusses questions of public policy from a standpoint of right and justice. A paper thus conducted is a blessihg to any community and will ever contribute its mite to perpetuating . the noble institutions of our grand Republic, thus vouchsafing to posterity the blessings of that greatest of all gifts—a government bases upon the will of the people, liberty, equality, justice. :

‘ Yes, Why Not? : : Every msn should have ‘what ‘he% wants, and why not? But our wants begin when we are born, and whyﬂ not? A boy wants an education to fit him for the world, and why not?

e e e ce mmw“f‘m”;ﬂ St e Lo i AL startod ngatn.The Lendor man thinks he has now got an issue. He seeks to direct the minds of his readers from the unmnl:gmand _cowardly way he reated me when my reputation was at stake—that which’ is more “valuable than gold, because it is move difliculty toreplace—and the individual who seeks to rob his fellowman of his good name, ismore depraved than the thief who steals your property. In other words, he hopes to do this by throwing mud, a tirade of abuse upon decent men—‘and these expressed in the low billingsgate of the gutter is a genuine moral tonic, butis to the better class very repulsive. It is the same old trick of the devil that was practiced upon our Savior when he had performed the miracle of opening the eyes of a man who was born blinﬁ.‘ The devil sought, through some bad men, to divert the minds of the people from the miracle by calling their attention to the violation of their Sabbath, not that they owned the Sabbath or cared for it, but they felt quite sure if there was not a check put upon the Savior and his cause. he would gather the pedjplé after him, and that would set them aside. So instead of meeting the miracle squarely and fairly they sought to run a side issue (the Sabbath question) to blind the minds cf the masses and ruin his usefulness, no matter how valuable that might be to mankind. Just so they could be the leaders, at any cost. Now ‘the editor of the Leader does not-own the ‘science of language,”’ and it is none of ‘his business who yiolates its laws. Itis customary to proof read manuscript, and custom makeslaw. Idid nottranscend that law. I say ggain 1 have in my possession letters written by an editor of one of the leading Presbyterian papers, in which he makes use of the ‘“‘short and’’ and other abbreviations. I have another from a graduate at Yale coliege with the same error, and still another from a leading lawyer who is guiliy of the same thing, and I see mispelled words in nearly every newspaper, the Leader not an exception. Why. all this halibaloo over grammatical errors? Not that the editor of the Leader cares a’ nickle about it for he let the secret out in his last batch of slime he threw’at me. In examination of the congloberated mass 1 found what had notched him. It was because I am an ultra Prohibitionist (just so.) Ultra Prohi means one who has gone beyond (hence extreme.) Beyond the Leaders view, or the view of his party of how to deal with the liquor traffic in this country. If this is what he means, we confess to the charge. He favors as dose his party a policy to gét money to help run the government, by licensing a business that kills 60,000 of its subjects annually, while they are in partnership in this unholy trade in order to get $BOO,000,000, while it costs the government about $900,000,000 to repair its wrongs for that year, and $800,000,000 that ought to be poured through the legiti‘mate channels of trade to enliven industry and bless mankind, is sent through the saloon, murdering the above number and pauperizing two hundred million children annually, besides the misery and woe that it produces in the homes all over the country. » ' If I am thus to be slimed over by such a man as the editor of the Leader for trying to prevent this rayage upon our homes, the crippling of the Industries of our nation, and the sending of so many of our young mien %fo hell by this direct route, sanctioned by the republican party, I shall cheerfully submit for their sake, but to all of this slime mill’s grist take no notice, for if he can make money it matters not with him how much harm is done by the policy of his party to the citizens. Instead of according to me the same privilege he gives to others through the columns of his paper, he .closes them against me and all others who are not of his political faith, resorting to what all have admitted was the hope of the Catholic church, viz: to keep their followers in ignorance. When this is so corruption is the invariable result. He virtually admits that this is the sole. cause of his treatment toward me, and now to justify himself before his readers he intends to slime sme instead of replying like a gentleman. He says I unwarrantedly accused him of falsehood. 1 am ready to-let the public say who lied. He also said I expected him to make certain explanations for me. No, I asked him to print my second article and say ‘just as he had in the first, without chan%e or comment. Now did he ‘do so? No! He felt sure if he would publish it, while I was willing to be responsible for the mechanical part of the manuscript, that the second article would prove that I had at least some ability which would defeat his purpose, hence he declined. If he was running ‘a paper for the good of the people in general, and not for selfish ends, he would have been glad under a test to let that test place me where I belonged before his readers. But he knew if he did that it would help me and prohibition and thus probabfy save wrecking 'men morally, intellectually, socially, religonsly financially and physically. Then he sayslam not a fit man to preach t%e gospel as he believes. “By ‘their fruits you shall know them,’’ said ‘the Master. This being the ‘divine rule, let us take a little glance at my work in Noble county for the past four years, during which time I have had over three hundred conyersions, built ‘one new church, repaired another at a ‘cost of nearly a new one, built an-addi-‘tion to the parsonage and erected a ‘ s‘grsqnage ‘barn, all at a cost of nearly $4,000, and haye in the same time on the tw{o charges been preaching to nearly seven hundred members in this| county.

. The Leader editor says I made four I mistakes; first, because 1 entered a saloon; second, because I plead ignorance; third, for claiming I was decoyed there, and tourthly, when'l atitacked the Editor of the Leader. | ~ To the first let me say 1 would not have been committed had it not been for the republiean party. To the second, let Mr. Stansbury answer. As to ‘the third, the man who keeps the place will sav, as will also my wife, that he told me at the door that all was clean and that himself, wife and daughter run it. And as to the fourth mistake I presume that it is true, for 1 have met in the editor of the Leader, a man who is controlled by his depraved nature instead of by the stern pr nciples of manhood. ;

If he can get subscribers by such a course from my members he is welcome to them. Geo. T. BUTLER.

: : DIED. ; " At his home in Ligonier, Indiana, Thursday morning, June 28, 1888, Mr. Robert Jeanneret, aged 77 years, 3 months and 9 days. Mr. R. J. Jeanneret was born in London, England, March 19, 1811, and was married to Amelia Allsworth, at Westbury, England, March 10, 1835. In 1841 they crossed the Atiantic, with four children, and settled in London, Canada, where he followed the jewelry business. Three children were born to them at this place. One child having died. they removed with six children, to the city of Chicago, 111., in 1856, In 1858 they came to Bristol, Ind.. and in 1863 they returned to Canada, residing in_Guelph, Paris and Toronto, Their son, Henry. and two of their daughters haying located in Ligonier, Mr. Jeanneret removed to this place in 1875. Since thas time he has acted as book-keeper for his son-in-law, Mr. E. Reeve. He succeeded in winning the admiration and confidence of all with whom he held any business. relations because of his accuracy and fairness. He retained the perfect ‘use of his mental powers up to the last, and was able to attend to business until within a few weeks of his death, which eccurred aboutl o’clock a. m., June 28, 1888. | )

‘Mr. Jeanneret’s parents were members of the Established Church of England, and he was confirmed in that chirch when quite young, but while residing in Canada, he and his family united with the Congregational church with which he was identified at the time of his death. ~When residing where there was a society of Congregationalists, he took an active part, filling the place of deacon. 'A few times, while residing at Bristol, he prepared discourses and delivered them 1n the Presbyterian church, which, at the time, had no pastor. He was mbst . fully convinced of the . divine inspiration of the seriptures and was much pained whén any one was disposed to speak light of them. For years Mr. Jeanneret was at times especially the subject of personal affliction from heart disease. His wife was also, for years previous to her death, much afflicted 4t times,. but they were greatly favored in having the tender and constant care of their children, and especially of their youngest daughter, who remained with them to the last. Both were permitted to come down well nigh to the four score yesrs. x ; Friend after friend departs; ‘Who hath not lost a friend?
