Tax Week is the name of a very readable labor paper at Evansville, and it deserves succoss. Tax Home Bale bill felled to pass the'English Parliament on its second reading. Poor Inland. Tax Martin County Tribane is now a handsome eigh t-column folio and shows evidence of thrift and enterprise. ____________ Jobs Kkiaky, the noted New York politician and chief of the Tammany half fection of the Democracy, died in that city Tuesday of last week. Hkkk Host's twaddle has been shut off for a Tear. He has his head shaved, wears striped clothes and takes lessens in work in a New York penitentiary. > Tax people will be apt to remember that it took two Confederate brigadiers in the Senate to defend General ’ Black, the crippled Union veteran, from the malignant abuse of the Republican stay-at-home, Ingalls. Wx are in receipt of the bright and able Indianapolis Freeman, au independent journal, devoted principally to the tariff. It is for a reduction of the tariff, and its articles have the true ring. The Freeman is au educator. Success to lit. When the question, “Is Blaine a Knight of Labor?” was propounded to T. V. Powderjly, Grand Master Workman, .he promptly answered: “No, in heaven’s name there have beeu enouJSjrbad tilings said about us without'That. Let it rest there.” Akknt the President’s marriage, it is now gratifying to turn back to his first annual message aud read: “The father’s of our families are the best citizens of the republic. Wife and children are the ^purees of patrotism and conjugal and parental affection beget devotion to the country.” Tax initial numberof She Washington Daily Democrat, bright, newsy aud entertaining, reached us Tuesday. It is au ably edited and handsomely printed five-column folio, and L 1b sure to increase in size as the peopie of Washington will not feil to apBppreciate and reward the enterprise of f Messrs. Belding A Boyd. Tax business situation is gradually improving. The reports from all sections indicate that the distribution of manufactured goods is very active, and there is but li ttle accumulation of stock ou hand, while tin production of kich goods iis as large as (aud perhaps larger) than at any time since the year begun.

The Altoona Times thinks labor and capital should lire together like man and wife. Well they do like some men and their wives. There i« no end to the disputes between aome men and their wives and there seems to be the same state of affeirs between labor and capital. They do not seem tube aide to understand each other. , When in one day thirty-nine Democratic editors in Pennsylvania earnestly indorsp the Morrison Tarrifl Bill, and the Rand ill Club of Philadelphia repudiates its name and rebukes its Representative in Congress for his treachery to his party on the tariff issue, it is a bout time for the Protective Tariff League to hold auother convention. \ / The Louisville Times says: Grover, ^here’s looking toward you. Lucky dog that yon are, with the best of all the good things thrusting themselves upon you, remember that there is nothing more left for you in the cornucopia of the gods half so rare as that which, bv the tender grace of this June day, is ;ir*ar8. Take this Heaven’s last, best gitt to man, and —don’t forget to ‘turn the rascals A Democratic administration is recovering lands fiom railroad corporations which hive been lavishly bestowed. The Kansas Pacific was compelled to surrender 900,000 acres and the Union Pacific 1,500,000. It is said the Land Commissioner now has over20,000,000 acref ready to cutup into farms all recovered from grasping railroad monopolies. The day for giving away public territory has passed.

Bowman, Madison; David Grubb, Clay; Chas. Fettinger, Patoka; H. B. Shively, Monroe; Peter R. Miller, Logan; Daniel Davis, Lockhart; George W. Spraggins, Marion. THE RESOLUTION8. The Committee on Resolutions presented the following ringing resolutions, which were read to the convention and adopted with cheers: The Democtacyof Pike county in mass convention assembled, again' as sure the people of its intention to aid in the great work of economy and reform in the administration of the affairs of government; the adjustment of the tariff and revenues so, as to insure home production, exported products, and imported money; the employment of home labor, and the suppression of imported foreign pauper labor. A quarter of a century of experience of badly arranged tariff and inconsiderate revenue, have taught lessons and made impressious upon the minds of the people, which prove but too dearly that idleness and want are some of the results consequent upon such legislation. The great Democratic party was organised to be, and is, perpetual; organ lsed in favor of good government; organized in favor of the masses of the people; organized to twist the

slightest and all attempts toward oeuteraliaation; organised for the sole a”d beuefleient object of insuring to its rotaries, a government by the people, a government of the people, and a government for the people. It should t herefore be recoguiised by all persons of whatever class, calling, or business, as the only safe-guard against auy and all attempts toward monopolies, whether monetary or lauded, and regarded as the only trustworthy organisation from which to hope for just and economic legisla tion in all the offices of County, State and National government.

1 oererore, oe u resoiveu, mat we nesruiy indorse the administration of President Cleveland. Belleveing that public office Is a public trust and that he as the most public of ail public officers, has fully demonstrated his ability to preside over a great Nation by being consistent and considerate in ail decisions, and basing all his actions upon a principle of right. Resolved, That we regard all pension bills which have become laws as right and just to the Union ex-soldier and sailor; and t he late hill as passed by the U. S. Senate we fully endorse aa being justly due, and would add that it be so amended as to include all honorably discharged Union soldiers and sailors, whether thev claim a disability or not, of not less than $8,00 per month That the present financial condition of Pike county is the common result of Repub. lican rule; the evidence of their mal-sdmln-istration, the positive proof of their inability to manage even county affairs, much less those of a great Nation. That the 040,000 mentioned by the party or parties in mass convention assembled May 29th, Is a creature of their own production and a very flur repreeentation of their ability, as we consider the condition or our higher departments when the same passed into the hands of the present administration Whereas, the Democratic party has been the true friend of labor and laborers, as the records ol its members in the State a nd National legislatures will verily, and their interests and welfare guarded by our party in every trade aud calling, we further pledge the laboring men that our full support will be continued in protecting them, advancing their every interests consistent with law and justice, and bo it further Resolved, that our members in the legislature will sai'Ction, give their aid and support .to all just taws lor the benefit of the miners, operators; those engaged in agricultural pursuits, and the laboring classes in every calling and vocation of lift. Signed by the Committee: 1. It. Lett, Jefferson township; A. H, Taylor, Washington; Joseph L. Harrison, Madison; Samuel Hargrove, Clay; P. R. Miller, Logan; Robt. H. Bailey, Patoka; Samuel Fettinger, Lockhart; A C. Anderson,Monroe ;P.C. Abbott, Marion. At 1 o’clock, in the grove north of Winslow, the convention was called to order by Chairman Henry J. Wiggs, who presided, and C. W. Young, Secretary of the central committee acted as Secretary. After the reading of the resolu tions, the nominations began with Commissioner for the First District. W. J. Abbott, Samuel Amos and C. W. H. McClure were placed in nomination, and the first ballot resulted in the selection of Mr. Amos by the following vote: Townships. Amos.

Joseph L. Bowman, for Coroner, and Josiah Morton, for Surveyor.,were nominated by acclamation. Fredrick ’ H. Poetker and William J. Shrode were unanimously nominated for re-electiou to the offices of Treasurer aad Sheriff respectively. Perry W. Chappell, Albert E, Edwards and Frank Bilderhack were named for Auditor, aud James A.

Total ... 4T* ST* The nomination of Mr. Thompson was made unanimous. Mr. Ely and Mr. Townsend ad* dressed the convention in a brief but pithy manner. The convention then adiourned. Rmm. It is a farmer’s ticket. The woods were fall of Democrats. Hon. J. E. McCullough was present a short time. Our rooster is up, and will never stop crowing. The ticket is a strong ticket, and one that is sure to win. All the nominees wers called for and made brief speeches. The contest for Representative was spirited. Lemuel R. Hargrave, George 6. Ashby and Wm. Chesser received a very creditable vote. W. J. Abbott has made a careful, conscientious commissioner, and as he is a genial gentleman and a sound Democrat, he takes his defeat philosophically. A Resolution was adopted endorsing \V. W. Berry as a candidate for Joint Senator for Knox and Pike. Mr. Jfterrv is a foremost citizen of Knox, and will give strength to the ticket. The race for Auditor was closely contested; but Mr. Edwards will have the hearty support of the gentlemen he defeated, Frank Bilderback and Perry W. Chappell, for there are no two better Democrats living than these gentlemen. George B. Ashby's nomination of Mr. Townsend was made at the request of many of George's friends, after he had withdrawn. George received a good vote, and as he is young and active he has excellent promises for the future. The Ticket. LEVI THOMPSON, The nominee for Representative, is a prominent farmer of Monroe township, and his farm is near the line dividing Monroe and Patoka townships. For over twenty years he has mingled among our people and his name is a household word, so to speak. Being forty-live years of age, he is just in the prime of a strong and vig orous manhood. He has never held any office of public trust. As he is a man of rare common sense, superior judgment and qualifications, he will make an ideal Representative and is just the man to head the ticket. JOHN w. m'carty, For Clerk, is a young man of excellent habits and q ratifications. John is a fine penman, and has a mind well stored with general information. lit is a prince of good fellows, and is deservedly popular among all classes, old and young. In everyday life, he has proveu himself a man of strict Integrity,and to know him is to like him. He is the man for the place, and as he belongs to the young and progressive Demooraev, he will make the canvass full of interest, and come out a sure wiuuer. ALBERT E. EDWARDS, Who was nominated for Auditor, is a farmer and resides iu Monroe towuship. That he was successful in a race with such men aa Perry W. Chappell aud Frank Bilderback proves that he is indeed a hustler. Mr. Edwards is well qualified, and possesses vim and energy that is sura to make itself felt iu a canvass. He is a member of a family that is well known all over the county, aud he will make a strong candidate. A glance at his vote will show that he was well supported from various parts of the couuty, and he is to be our next Auditor as sure as November comes.

H (uxjI AJI cl* OUSWb) Candidate for re-election to the of Sherifl, needs no introduction to our people. In an official capacity, he has traversed the county hundreds of times, and his acquaintance is unlimited. As an officer of the law, he has been just, pains-taking and faithful to every duty. So Sheriff of Pike couuty can point to a better record than Mr. Shrode, and few can eoua) it. He is popular in every nook ana corner of the county, and will receive such a hearty support as to insure his election by an increased majority—an honor which he truly merits. FREDRICK H. POETKXR, Who was nominated for re-election to the office of Treasurer, has proven himself to be a thoroughly capable and honest officer. With him, public office is a public trust, and he has been faithful to that trust. During his term of office he has made a record in the collection of taxes, as well as the geueneral management of the office, to which he and his many friends can point with pride. His election is assured by a rousiug majority, as he emiuentiy deserves it. J0S1AH MORTON, The nominee for Surveyor, is a wellknown farmer of Washington township, and served as Surveyor two terms, from 1878 to 1882. He has been deputy surveyor under Franklin R. Bilderback for several mouths. His experience and knowledge of the work admirably fits him for the place, and we are sure the people will recognize these abilities and elect him by a good majority. JOSEPH L. BOWMAN, of Madison township, the nominee for Coroner is a young and iudustrious farmer, who has an extensive acquaintance, as he is a member of one of the oldest families in Pike county. He will make an efficient Coroner, and will add strength to this strong ticket. He is. tike the other farmers on the ticket,* a representative man. SAMUEL AMOS, Tho nominee for Commissioner, First District, is a well-known citizen of' Jefferson township. He is one of the best mechanics iu Southern Indiana, and is possessed of other qualifications that well fit him for Commissioner. He is careful and conscientious in the discharge of every duty as a citizen, and will prove equally so in the important office of County Commissioner, to which office the people will elect him. GERARD II. OVERBECK, Who was nominated for Commissioner, Third District, is a former of Lockhart township. He is a man o fine business Qualifications, excellent judgment ana executive ability. As he has manag’d his own aflairs successfully, he will do folly as well for the people, who will elect him to the office of Cotmnkafcmer next November.
