Indianapolis says tiioJPtowu cow’ must go.__* 'i This Senate lias again passed tlic Fitz John Porter bill. c; The Indiana Supreme Court lias adjourned Until September. Democracy will win in this county. Nor combination can beat it. Democracy is “oictop” iu this county and propose to sHav there. The Republican attitude on the county debt question is a sham, a delusion, and a snare to entrap the voter: It won’t work. An Indianapolis man took his wife’s sewiug machine to a saloon and raffled it off for whisky. This fellow will take his place near the head of the class of “the meanest men on record.” PartV principles are lost sight of OTery time a fusion ticket is placed before the people. Both Republicans and Nationals can not fail to see this. The majority of loth these parties would prefer a square, stand-up fight, but a few leaders, longing for office, say different. So you can see how the old thtog works. The Democracy of Pike county have a ticket containing every clement of popularity—honesty, capability, true citizenship, and true Democracy^ Every candidate is working for the success of himself and and the whole ticket. Democrats, as well as Independent Republicans and Nationals, can freely give this ticket a kc-** ...

WHICH IS “WEIGHT?" Tho editor of the Press repudiates the Republican National platform of 1884. That platform was pledged to correct the irregularities of the tarifff Mr. Gladish favors the present high and irregular tariff. The plattorfti nud the Press do not agree. Which represents tho Republican idea, in the United States, on the tariff? Does the Press or the National plat* form of the Republican party ? If the Press represents the position of its party on the tarili, then the National platform is a dead letter. If the National platform voices the correct position of that party on this question then the Press and ninetynine hundredths of its party is wrong. AYe are iuformed that the editor of the News appealed before the Board of Commissioners last week, with a clipping from a newspaper, containing a recent decision of the Supreme court, to the effect that County Commissioners were not permitted by law to charge for their time in letting and superintending the building of bridges, aud intimated that as two of the Commissioners had drawn a considerable sum for these services' he would make it “warm” for them if they refused to allow his bill, ($18.00) which was unjust and unauthorised. Wc do not hesitat^ to'sav (he Commissioners made a grave mistake when they allowed that bill; they have been desirious of practicing economy, aud have doue so, but just how this can be explained, we are unable to say. Tho claim presented was for a notice from the Secretary of the Board of Health. The Secretary did not authorized tho News to publish it. Then' the only way a copy could be secured was to clip it from either the Press or Democrat, which papers the Secretary of the Board of Health ordered it to be printed in, aud then cajole the Commissioners into allowing it.

We would hate to believe that a threat would influence a Board of Commissioners in allowing a claim, or in any way deter them from acting, in their official capacity, as good judgment should dictate. It is due from a public officer that he discharged his duty carefully and conscientiously, but he must be firm ; calmly consider the right; know he is right and then stick to it in spite of all cajoling and threats. We desire to speak plainly to the Commissioners and they kuow the meaning- of our words better thau the general reader. If the Commissioners have been imposed upon, we shall gladly receive their explanation, but if they have permitted a man to frighten them into an action, they must bear the censure such action calls for from the people. “The high tariff protects the laboring man agaiust pauper labor!” Docs it? Mow dies it prevent the Italians, the Hungarians, and all kinds of servile laborers from flocking to this country to compete with honest American labor? The fact is the high tariff protects the capitalists from foreign competition on his manufactures, while he can emply the slavish laborers from the slums ot Europe. These laborers are here and have taken the place of American laborers and no amount of juggling of words can mislead one who gives it a moment's serious consideration. So you see the manufacturer is the one who is protected. There should be equal protection; it is justice to the laborer to protect him also, but sbame on such base duplicity that would fain to make the laborer believe that he is protected while the bread is bc?ing taken out of his mouth! Let the Italians, the Hungarians, and all the worst elements of foreigu countries continue to pour in and “protect” the laborer! This kind of ‘^protection” throws tho American laborer out of employment, starves his family, and makes the protected manufacturer rich, as the tarifi keeps up the price of his goods. Laborers arc studying this question every day, and are rapidly learning who gets the protection.

The editor of the News and the commissioner he published as being so drunk that ho could not find his horse, and who he abused for several weeks because he stopped his subscription to that paper, have “buried the hatchet,” and are now as loving as two turtle doyes. The friendship will continue as loug as the said commissioner will vote money out of the county treasury to pay the Nows man [for all legal advertisements that he may copy from the Press or Democrat, without authority or law, and then present his bill to the commissioner;; to be paid tor the same. The commissioners have been allowing these bills for the past two or three sessions, and instead of the usual criticism and abuse, such paragraphs as the following may bo found in the News’ columns: “A vast amonut of business was transacted last week by the commissioners—who fool away, no time.” There is a strong movement of capital! toward real estate—not for speculative bnt for investment purposes. The last issue of Brad street’s discusses the matter, and shows that while there is a lack of confidence in business ventures, and while stocks and nearly all ether securities are very low and very dull, great Confidence is felt in real estate, and* capital is seeking investment in if to an unusual degree. The conveyances from January 1st, to June 1st, 1886, vrere 6,440 against 5,114 in the first five month of 11885, and 5,974 in the first five months of 1884. In the first five of the present year there was 1123,325,992 expended iu real estate purchases? against less than 184,000,001) for the same period last year, and a trifle of rs.'mOOO in 1884.

THE TARIFF. Every day the Republican party falsifies its position on the taritt’. The press and the speakers of that party uphold the present protective tariff that protects a few at the expeuse of the many. By advocatin'; this high aud irregular tariff, the Republican party is false to its pledge made in the national platform adopted at Chicago, June 1881, as follows: “The Republican party pledges itself to correct the irregularities of the tariff.” A few days Ago in the House of Representatives, a vole was taken to consider the Morrison tariff bill which was to correct some of the irregularities of the tariff. The bill was not taken up, for 136 Democrats and hut 4 Republicans voted in favor of considering the measure, mid 122 Republicans and 35 Democrats voted against considering the measure. Of the thirty-five Democrats who voted with the Republicans, teu were from New York, five from Pennsylvania, eight from Ohio, three from New Jersey, four from Louisana, two from Illinois, one from Alabama, one from Maryland and one from California. These men (protection Democrats) were uufatihfnl to the pledge made in the National Democratic platform of 1884, which declared: “The Democratic party is pledged to revise the tariff in a spirit of fairness to all interests.” One hundred and thirty-six Democrats were faithful to this pledge, as the vote in the House showed, and only four Republicans supported the Republican National platform of 1884• Stick a pin here Mr. Gladish. Of the four Republicans wlio voted with the Democrats, throe were from Minnesota aud one from New York. When the vote against the measure was taken, the announcement of its defeat was received with deafening cheers ou the Republican side. The Republican^ cheering at the defeat of their pledge! “Lord, Lord, how this world is given to lying!” The Representatives of both parties will have to answer to their constituents for their actions or this measure. However, it is gratifying to know that the Democratic Representatives of Indiana were faithful to the party’s pledge.

Voters, remember that eternal vigilance is the price of libertyY Work and make the victory more decisive. Let there be nothing left undone; so that Democracy will administer a deserved defeat to a coalition formed solely for selfish control of a few offices, for they have bar ied their principles for the time being and are on a platform of deception, which is doomed to utter defeat by the aids of straightout partisans, who love their party above offices, and who do not desire that the principles of the Republican and the National party shall be sacrificed at the expense of securing a lew offices. They do not feck bound to support a ticket under these circumstances, and will vote accordingly. Independent Republicans and Nationals will hesitate before they give their principles and their future prospects iuto the guardianship of a few leaders, that they mav use them to satisfy their own ambitions and then cast them aside, as the plaything of [ the campaign. PIKE COUNTY’S DELEGATES To the State and District Conventions.

POLITICAL PICK-UPS John H. Pierey, of Putnam county, has become a candidate for nomination as State Treasurer on the Democratic ticket. The Republicans of the Second District will nominate a candidate for Congress, on July 15th, to be beaten out of sight by Hon. John II. O’Neall. The Democracy of Pike county, and the whole ticket, are* a unit for success, aud a general charge will be made all along the line. The fusiouists will be routed. The Congressional race is practically unchanged. Hon. J. K. McCullough and Major Mrnzics spend their time in the “debatable” countie9, aud are in Piko at present. The Prohibition political campaign in Southern Indiana will be oponed at the Court Honse in Princeton, on Monday evening, July 5th, 1886, at 7** p. m. The program will consist of musie by the Princeton orchestra, singing by the glee club, and a speech by Judge W. M. Land, candidate for Attorney General. At the meetiug of the Congressional Committee at Evansville last Thursday,. the committeemen from Gibson* Perry, Spencer and Warrick counties voted fur Boouviile as tho place for holding the convention; Posey and Vauderburg’s for Evausvillc, and Pike's committeeman (W.

PLAIN TBUTBS. , Economy is a virtue, parsimony is a fault. Ecortomy is practiced when one avoids waste and applies money to the best advantage. This is a virtue. Parsimony is economy carried to an extreme. This is a fault. When economy is carried to an extreme it is avaricious, deceitful, and injurious to every interest, pursuit and calling. Extreme economy practiced in a man’s household would take the necessaries of life out of the mouths of his family, aud would force them to wear scaut clothing, insufficient to protect them from the storms of auv clime. Excessive economy in business would give a man the cheapest of cheap employes; incompetent men, who perform inferior service and finally ruin his business, resulting in a complete failure and breaking up of the enterprise. Cheap farm hands, unable to do the work desired by their employers, are not wanted. Competent men, who receive living wages aud do good service, are employed. Just so iu the common schools, “the hope of onr couutry,” in whieii every true citizen takes pride in making thorough and efficient. If teachers were employed only: because they agreed to teach for a cheap service, the schools would soon lose their power to do the great good in educating and fostering children. Pareuts would not want to place their children in charge of a person incompetent to teach them. Competent teachers can not be procured for a low price. The supply is regulatedby the demand; and, just as certain as salaries are reduced to an extremity, inefficientleachers only can be employed aud able instructors are forced to seek other fields ot labor where they are paid a salary their ability aud proficiency commands. Extreme economy thus effects the school system, as it docs those mentioned above.

i-uone omcers, true 10 inoir Trusts, will practice economy, but will not impair the public service by parsimony. The needs of the whole people are to be zealously looked after. A faithful officer (whoso duties are not routine) serves the people in a way his excellent judgment and common sense dictates. But he must be able to judge what is right and what is icrong ; there should be no vacillating, no faltering, but a bold, upright stand for that which is deemed best for the people, which the law of the land and the law of just precedent may point out. The officials who do their duty to the people are remembered by them, and they arc elevated time and again to places of honor and trust. And this is equally as applicabTejto a partisan, who is faithful to the tenets of his party and its members. Avoid parsimony! So it admonishes all to be ever faithful to the interests of those to wkom they are responsible for their position. This gives peace to the mind of the public servant, justice to whom justice is due, and raises the faithful to a place in the hearts of the people, or party, that finds a responsive cord in the breast of every man who loves his country, his schools, and his party. So shun parsimony I When a man fails to do justice to all these, lie is npt faithful to the interests of schools, or his employer, or the people, or his party who rewarded him, and his fall is as certain as the setting of the sun.

We had a case of scrofula in our neighborhood, of long standing, who hud used all patent medicines which were recommended to him; beside this, he also had stveral doctors attending him, hut everything failed to effect any good. He grew worse every day, and had not left his bed for the last six months. We had seen him several times in our little town, though it has been more than fifteen months since we last saw him, and we suppose this was the last time he was able to come to town, as he lives about eight miles in the country. His name is Servenka, and we got a neighbor of his to j ersuade bUn to try B. B. B. and after using only one bottle he left his bed for the first time in six months. To the present time he has used less than three bottles, and be is walking around vsiitiug his friends in the neighborhood. He has gained strength and flesh rapidly. All scrofulous sores are healing finely, and you never saw a happier man than he is. Nearly everybody for miles around has heard of this wonderful cure, and all who need a blood remedy call for the B. B. B. We had a ease of nasal catarrh in our own family (a little girl of four years old), who lias been using B. B.
