The Republican State platform— bosh! ^ The Republican State platform is a mass of incongruities Vote the' Democratic ticket from Lieutenant-Governor down to commissioners._! 1 A- wsk fbr Shrode is a vote to reelect cue of the best Sheriffs Pike connty ever had. A vote tor Morton, is a vote for an old surveyor—a man of great experience and superior qualifications. The late earthquake is but a premonition of the shaking the Republican party will experience next November. A vote for Bowman is a vote for a competent man, who will fill the office of coroner to the satisfaction of the peopl^_j A vote for Poetkcr is a vote to reelect one of the most efficient Treasurers Pike county over placed in that important trust. A Democrat who loves his party aVd its principles will not permit any personal pique to turn him aside from the support of a Democratic nominee.

The lines arc now clearly drawn. The Democratic nominees arc honest and capable, and a» such are entitled to the support of all Democrats, Independents and Nationals. " A vote for Thompson is a vote for a clear-headed,straight-forward, honorable- man*, who1 will cast his vote might on all questions, and for a Democratic United States Senator. A vote for Samuel Amos, is a vote for a first-class mechanic, au honest man, a man of good judgment, and one who will serve the people well in the office of county commissioner. A vote for Ovcrbeck is a vote for a man who will bring to the office of county commissioner a judicious knowledge, sagacity, and a strict fidelity to the interest of the people. Tn* signal guns of 1886 were fired at Logansport, Frankfort, Spencer and other Indiana cities last Saturday, and the campaign was opened under bright and auspicious circumstances. * ..—>■ A vote for Edwards is a vote for a consistent partisan—a man whose politics are not as changeable-as the views of a panorama—and* a mam wlto is thoroughly honest and competent for Auditor_[ v A vote for McCarty is a vote fbr att upright and qualified young man, of the strictest integrity. He is Hons ost jn his treatment of his fellow man; and this is an index of trhat his public career will be. McCarty far clerk.

GOOD ADVICE. The Evansville Courier gives the following good advice to Democrats: Organize club,! in every district. Let the county committees carefully poll every voter by election precincts. Let the comity candidates mate a personal cauva s together, holding meetings at every school house. Begin, at once., to prepare a list of local speakers, and call fdr volunteers. There is no Heed of expensive orators from abroad. The money can be better used in quiet, thorough work. Yawping from the stump has ceased to be attractive, anyway. Circulate campaigu literature by the ream. See that your county Democratic paper is put iuto the hands of every doubtful voter. As usual, the Republican State Convention was afraid to face the question of prohibition. Jus t as was expected. See what a cowardly plank it placed in its platform:: The attempted domination by the liquor leagues of political parties aud legislation is a menace to free institutions which must be met and defeated. The traffic in iutoxicatiug liquors has always been under legislative restraint, and believing that trie evils resulting therefrom should he rigidly repress, ed, we favor such laws as will permit the people in their several localities to invoke saeh measures of restriction' as they may deem wise, and to compel the traffic to compensate for the burdens it imposes on society and relieve the oppressions of local taxation. [ f »' Now read the following manly, brave, clean-cut plank from the Democrat! platform and take your choice: Resolved, That the Democratic party of Indiana is now, as it has always been, opposed in principle to all sumptuary laws and prohibitory legislation, but it is in favor ofjust and proper measures tor regulating traffic in spiritous and intoxicating liquors under a license system designed to repress the evils ofin tempera nee, and it favors a reasonable increase of the license tax, discriminating between malt liquor ami wines and distilled spirits so as to place the highest license on distilled spirits. The proceeds of such tax to be applied to the support of Common Schools. The Republican party ought to be composed of men or mice—not contemptible dodgers. The following eight paragraphs gives the authors of, and tire kind of; a tariff, existing in the United States from 1829 to 1861. The" monopolists and a large majority of the Republican party want the “Adams tariff, of 1828; while a large majority of the Democratic party want tire “Walker tariff, of 1846; for revenue only”: C I, Hamilton tariff of 1680; for revenue. 2. Calhoun tariff of ISIS; for moderate

pruiecuon. 8. Clay tariff of 1824; tor high protection. 4. Adams tariff'of 1828; for still higher protection. 5. Compromise tariff of 1883; for “horizontal reduction.” 6. AVhig tariff of 1842; for moderate protection." 7. %'alkertariffof 1846; for revenue oulv. 8. Morrill tariff of 1861; for hign protection. It has been intimated, by inuendo. that there are religious sects opposed to the ticket as a whole or to parts thereof. AVoc be to the man or party who raises race or religious prejudices iu political campaigns in this country. That might do iu days gone by, but the United States, and especially Indiana, has got beyond all dogmas of all the superstitions and will have none of that in politics. Under the teaciiings of Thomas Jefferson church and state were absolutely and forever divorced in this country and there never has been aud never will be a remarriage so long as we remain a free people._a

On last Thursday at the .Republican State convention Col R. S. Robertson, of Allen county, was nonfiuuted for Lieutenant-Governor; Chas. F. Griffin, of Lake, for Secretary of State; Bruce Carr, of Orange, for Auditor; J. A.- Less eke, of Vanderbwrg, for Treasurer; L. J. Michenor, of Shelby, for Attorney General1; Byron K. Elliott, of Marion, foi Supreme Judge; W. L. Noble, of Wayne, for Clerk of Supreme Court; and S. W. Lafollette, of Boone, for Superintendent of Public Instruction. Editor Josiah Gwin, of the New Albany Public Press, who is usually up to snuff, was sadly imposed upou by some Howard man from Clark countv in his last iss«ue. Some one sent him a political effusion extolling the virtues of Stockslager, G win’s candidate for Congress, and denouncing Howard. Siuce the poem was put in cold type it has been discovered that it wa» an acrostic entitled, “Stockslager the Ass.” Uncle Joe will be warm when he finds it out. The Mt. Yernou Democrat says: “The Evansville Journal aud its feeble echo, the Star, are doing some noble (?) work for the Republican candidate for Congress. 11 o weverjhe Democrats of Posey county are too loyal to their principles, and too sensible to be influenced by the disorganizing tactics of these papers.” Tn* Petersburg ring will make its strongest fight against Morgan.—Press. Wrong. MOrgau and Betheil are candidates of the Petersburg ring, and the ring will do all in its power to elect them. In fact Morgan aud Bethfil). are members of the ring Fbanr Posey received 177 votes for Lieutenant-Governor iiu the State convention. He made a creditable lace, considering the short time he was a candidate. But Frank is | long time getting his reward. He is deserving, but gets nothing butempty Hon. W. D. Braun was the choice <»f the convention, at Indianapolis, last-Saturday, for Congressman from th'fl'Sevend) district. Thin se ttles that remarkable contest over the nomination. Mr. Bynum will be elected.

“See What Knight Says' ” Knight says Morgan, Bethell, Clladish etal, made the the elate for the (Union ticket. Knight nay* there in more dinoatieibcUon in the Republican rauke thin oampaign than eTer before. Knight aaid the preeent board of Commie, nionern were no better than Republicans be* cause they refused to be bulldozed by him for boodle purposes. Knight telegraphed flora Indianapolis that he had been appointed postmaster of Petersburg. Knight said on his return (Tom Washington City that he was p resent and saw his commission, as postmaster tilled out and that he would take charge of the office in a few days.—Press. The above is a little nearer the (ruth than Mr. Gladish usually gets. 1st, We did say that the Petersburg ring, i.. e. Morgan, Bothell, Gladish et al. made the fusion ticket; aud every roan in Petersburg knows this to be a fact. The ticket, with the exception of Representative, was named by a number of Republicans, of this place, as the one that would be nominated, the morning before the convention met. 2d, We did say “there is mote dissatisfaction in the Republican ranks this campaign than ever before.” Every man who has talked with the people, from different parts of the county knows thi9 to be true. 3d, We said that the present Democratic Board of Commissioners had been paying you from 9109.00 to 1130.00 each year for publishing the “June reports,” and that when we protested, and offered to publish the reports for one half the amount they had been paying yon, they refused to give us the reports for publication. In this respect we said they were no better than a Republican Board ; as a Republican Board could do no more than give you full price for all their advertising. For offering to do this work for a Democratic Board, at half rates, you denounce us as “trying to bull-dose the Commissioners for boodle purposes.” Even if this was true, you can not deny that by complying with our request one half the amount of boodle they had been paying you would be saved to the taxpayers. 4th, We never telegraphed from Indianapolis that we had been appointed Postmaster at Petersburg. This is a second hand Fe. We did say on our return from Washington City, that we stood by the side of Gen. A. E. Stevenson and saw him write the order for our appointment as postmaster at this place. Ex-Sena-tor J. E. McDonald was preeent at the time, and will confirm our statement, if Mr. Gladish or any other person is sufficiently interested to enquire of or write him about the

matter. He will also tell them how hal'd Mr. Kleiner had to work to keep o»ir commission from being forwarded. We have all the papers that were filed at Washington, in regard to our appointment as postmaster,—among them the order written by Gen. Stevenson ordering our appointment. Come np, Wright, and we will show you all the papers, and you may publish them if you desire, and let the people see who lied about this postofSce matter.

A few weeks sinee we showed how five or six Republicans, composing the Petersburg ring, got together and fixed up the fusion ticket. Ever since that time, the Press, unable to refute our statement, has been trying to break the force of it by crying “ring,” ‘'ring,” “ring,” and working hard to make somebody believe that the Democratic ticket was also nominated by a ring. But every candidthiuking man knows that a ring did not select the candidates at our county convention; a ring, or clique, of men, could not have manipula ted the convention, had they so desired. The Democracy do not select tickets in that way, as the Republicans do. The cardinal principle of Democracy is that the majority shall rule, and that the masses choose their candidates, It was so at the county convention. The Democracy of Pike county met in mass convention. There was no “slate” prepared before baud, as was the case ut the Republican county convention.' The field was free and open, and. Democrats voted for whom they pleased. No ouc was taken advantage of, all par ty precedents in making nominations were carried out, and the result was very satisfactory. The candidates chosen are men of the people, tresh from their ranks, the majority beiug farmers. Most of the ticket iis composed of new men in politics.} They are none the less competent than their opponents; but the will of the majority was observed in making the nominations at our county convention; there were no “slates],” ring candidates, or ring manipulations, as the strength and personal of our ticket, 6hows. It is a Democratic ticket selected by the people in mass conveution, and fully deserves the hearty support of every Democratic and independent voter. Rentas or Fourth Indian Ca valry. We have received the following, which explains itself. We hope that all our old comrades, who can possibly do so, will attend this reunion: Comrade W. P. Knight:—On Wednesday Sept. 29th, 1886, the surviving members of the 4th Indiana Cavalry will hold a reunion at the Court house, Indianapolis, commencing at 10 o’clock, (this being State Fair week at this place). A large attendance and a good time is expected. All Comrades of this regiment are invited. Please send names aud addresses of al l whom you may know to the secretary. Col. L. S. Shuler, President.

The Snlktn ExpesitUu At Louisville o)>ened on the 28th ult. All parts of this country are represented and the foreign departments unusually good. We feel sure from past experiences that our readers will be interested in learning something of the preparations made this season, and the attractions secured by the managers, for the entertainment and instruction of the thousands aud tens of thousands who will make a pilgrimage hither during the eight weeks that will elapse after the opening. It is needless to say that after three Expositions and the experience obtained, the managers are prepared to preseut new and more varied attractions ; that they have added largely in the way of improvements to the buildings; that thirteen acres of new roof have been put on the main building, and that with the new arrangement of the Music Hall, Art Gallery and other sections, it looks like a new establishment. To those who have not visited the Southern Exposition heretofore, it is proper to say that the main building has an area of about fifteen acres with an average iuterior height of forty feet, and an exhibit space therein of six ‘hundred'and seventy-seven thousand four hundred square feet. The company own every necessary appliance for a great exhibition; it is an independent self-sustaining and successful institution; it is the only great exposition that has been successfully lighted in every part at night by electric lights, and the electric system is the largest single plant in the world. Its personal references arc 3,000 exhibitors anti fifteen hundred thousand visitors in all parts of the globe. Its success in the past has been phenomenal, and the future promises corresponding growth. The great Music Hall has been converted into a fine enclosed concert hall with a handsome stage and elevated seats, and here Prof. Damrosch and his splendid orchestra of sixtytwo members, did, on the opening dav, begin a series of forty-eight grand concerts. Cat pa with his much strengthened and improved band will inspire the people with martial and couccrt music, after Damrosch. The Art Gallery, the Japanese Village, the Museum ot Natural History, and manv other special features will add interest to this great Exposition. The attendance from this part ot the State has been good, and no doubt a large number will visit Louisville and the exposition again this year.

Newspaper Troubles. [Cincinnati Review.} The newspaper business is very exactin'* on all connected with it, and the par- is comparatively small; the , proprietors risk more money for smaller profits, and the editors, reporters, and printers work harder and cheaper than thesame number of men in any other profession requiring the given amount of intelligence, training and drudgery. The life has its charms and pleasant association; scarcely known to the outside world: but it has its earnest work and anxieties and hours of exhaustion, which also are not known to those who think the business all fun. The idea that newspaperdom is a charmed circle, where the favored members live a life of ease, and free from care, and go to the circus at night on a free ticket and travel on free passes in the summer, is an idea which should be exploded. Without beiug represented in its advertising columns we have had people request us to gratuitously insert this notice, or draw attention to this article, with the slight suggestion that “it will not cost you anything to put this in,” which is just as ridiculous as to ask a man to grind your ax on his grind stone aud graciously tell him it wou’tcost a cent. Ittakes money to run a newspaper as well as any other business; no paper can succeed financially that carries a dead-head system. Any mention of people’s affairs that are anxious to see in print is worth paying for and when printed is generally worth as much as any other investment of the same amount.

Scrofula of Lungs Believed. I am now 19 years old, and have suffered for the last fifteen years with a lung trouble. Several members of the family on my mother’s side of the house had died with consumption, and the doctors were all agreed in their opinion that I had consumption also. I had all the distressing symptoms of that terrible disease. I have spent thousands of dollars to arrest the march of this disease; 1 have employed all of the usual methods, not only In my own case, bnt In the treatment of other members of my family, but temporary relief was all that I obtained. I wits unfit for any manual labor for several years. By chance I came Into possession of a pamphlet on “Blond and Skin Diseases,’’ from the office of Swift Speetflc Co., Atlanta, (la. A frleud recommended the use of Swift’s Specific, claiming that he himself had been greatly benefitted by Its use In some lung troubles. I resolved to try It. About four years ago 1 commenced to take S. S. S. according to directions I found it an Invigorating tonic, anff have used about fifty bottles. The results are most remarkable. My cough has left me. my strength has returned, and I weigh sixty pounds more than I overdid In my life. It has been three years since 1 stopped the use of the medicine, but I have had no return of the disease, and there are no pains or weakness felt In my lungs. I do the hardest kind of mechanical work, and feel as well as 1 ever felt since I was a boy. These, I know, are wonderful statements to make, but I am honest when I say that I owe my existence and health to-day to Swift’s Specific. It Is the only medicine that brought me any permanent relief. I do uot say that Swiff’s Specific will do this In every case, but most positively r.fflrm that It has done this much forme, and I would be recreant to the duty I owe to suffering humanity If I failed to bear this cheerful testimony to the merits of this wonderful medicine. I am well known in the city of Montgomery, and can refer to some of the best citizens In the city. T. J. Holt. Montgomery, Ala., June 25,1885. Swift’s Specific Is entirely vegetable.
