The correction will cost the state quite a nice sutn. The mistake is the result of one of two things—ignorance‘or .neglect. (Perhaps hothb It would bare been well had the Republicans nominated a 'j 1 j ccHuieteiit roan. It i.s very clear that the re-election of President Diaz, of Mexico, is a thing to be dcoired by the American people in the interest of continued peace and friendship between the two countries. His opponents are of the church or reactionary party,'which is the sworn enemy ot all measures looking to the introduction of American capital and eutet prise lato Mexico; and hU defeat would therefore be a calamity to us as well as to the rfeximuu.

FROM KENTUCKY Democratir State Platform. We declare our confidence in the integrity, aud conscientious devotion to duty, of President Grover Cleveland, and congratulate the country and the party upon tlie accession of a Democratic git hi iuiat ration national, economic and clean : and wo particularly applaud tlie President for the fidelity and courage with which he lias protected tlie treasury from pillage. We sympathize inost'earnestly with the people ot Ireland in their struggle for local sell-governinent, and we unite with the friends of liberal progress in all parts of the world. Freedom of labor is essential to the contentment ami prosperity of the jieoplr. Workingmen should be protected against the oppressions of combinations and monopolies. We aroopposed’to' the importation of contract and ill-paid labor from abroad; to the employment of young children ill mines and factories. Wc denounce the present war tariff, laid to confuse as well as to harass tlie people, as a masterpiece of injustice, inequality ami false preteuse. it has been piaintaincd by a selfish and false theory of protection, which robs the many to enrich a few. It has piled up in the national treasury a surplus which menaces the prosperity of all classes aud every industry. Wc demand t bedimmed fate reduction of this war tariff not merely as an act of redress to the people promised by all parties, but as the oul\ safe aud just method of reducing the surplus. Tlie action of the Democrats in the House of Representatives, reclaiming from railroad aud other corporations nearly one hundred million acres of land granted to them by the Republican party,is heartily indorsed and approved. We declare ,the honest money of the constitution good enough for the pcople a« ex pros-cil in gold and silver, ami paper, convertible iuto coin on demaud. “Wt r.woit honest civil-service reform. by wliii h we mean tlie enforcement of the faithful performance by jur-ous appointed to office of all public duties intrusted to them, and to this cud. ns well as to the maintenance of the spirit of our representative form of government, wc demand the -til. i ; measure of personal and party responsibility, and are opposed to the substitution in room of this of life tenure, a civil pension' list, and a)! other appendages of a bureaucratic system foreign to the genius of our, institutions and people.’’ • Tin strike of the building operatives in .Chicago is, iii its cause aud oiigin, the iiirst foolish strike on record D iitj' not for higher wage.- qr fewer hours, but solely to get a change of payla . fr• >in Mona.v to Saturday. It has already -tod to.* big lockout aoda, determination on the part <>l the employers tc fight it out to the cud. the workmen will surely get the worst of it.

The idea that this country must alj ways rally lit two sections, under two different f!ags, yea, even four, is fast leaving the minds of the risiug and g g n<rations. AM tin North under the Stars ami Stri]n-»j while the. Republicans added tin} bloody shirr, made two flags, Tlnj s nth under the Stars and Stripes, while the rebclliouist aihled the rebel flag, made two more. Four in all!. More recently the North and the South have been under the Stats and Stripes while an olive branch spread all over the land. To-day one loved flag grasps within its folds every American s id. AVhile the hills shall endure, may that flag wave o'er a Futon that shall remain till the end of linn ! NiMii of our Republican contemporaries go into conniption tits cvety time the South elects t» office a man who had anything to do with tltc - Wthertieonfodcraey: Yet these same bloody, shirt wavers have never failed to rally to the support oft lie bitterest rebels ever time one of them swore loyally to the .Republican cause. ^ It is t<-.. bad that the Republican edite ys do all they*catr»e to preyeut, between the North'and the south, that Fit inn which would prove a blessing to this county." Fan it bo. iha’t those would-bc-amanuetises of the Republican party tiave not yet been eon vim ed •.hat in union there is strength ? The prohibition campaign in Tcjuis is living far mope closely contested : ml : exciting than any of those in which itlic Republicans * and Democrats,!.as such, have confronted each other. In 4lie pre-ent canvn--. party lines one broken, and the l’roliibiti mists are displaying a strength which the Rcpublicansin recent years have never IHm-ii able to show. As Reagan, Maxey ind many of the most prominent Democrats of ;lhe Sftitc are enthusiastic Prohibitionists, who take an active' part in the campaign, the contest is, the most doubtful up to thccloseof the polls of anv which'has been waged in the Lone Star State since thg close of the reconstruction period. Pbescdext Cuevelaxd is adhering strictly to the letter of the platform of the Democratic party of 1SS4, both as regards the Civil Service clause a ml that pertaining to public lands. In the Guilford Miller case he had read the following plank to a purpose: "We belivce^that the public land ought, as far as possible, to be kept as homesteads for actual settlors; that all unearned lands heretofore improvidcntly granted to railroad corporations by Use action of the Republican party should be restored to the public domain, and that no more gijautt of lan l should be made to corporations or be allowed to fall into the ownership of alien absentees.” These arc human rights, as well as sound, Democratic principles.

• Jeremiah m a Scientist. In a recent issue of the Democrat appeared an article stating that incase neither Vincennes nor Evansville gets gas, attends in Petersburg might prove fruitless. Pro. Jermiah made answer to cast belief that the editor of this paper is entirely ignorant of the earth's geology. This is ail right for a man who makes his strongest hits in school boy argument. Suppose we go upon ^xaminatioii, Pro. Jcrimlah, for the benefit of the public whom you tliink caught by the style ot your composition ? In conclusion we will say that von should not bon* fbr gas in MUsippi, dig for gold in Florida, or expect to find pearls in sWitie's mouths. If you do not know tliat bring licit; is more of a risk than at any point north of here iu Indiana, and that mineral deposits are local for special reasons; iit case you want to kjnow, we will tell you, for we will vfager that you vourselftiave not read the book you reccomcnd to us, to say nothing of standard scientific works. i Ox counting of noses, it will be found that workingmen exceed all other voters in-the Democratic party. ! AVtnt.E assembled at ludiawpolis the national committee ’Of the Utiion, Labor party declared John Sherman to be the worst foe Labor has iu this cou utrv. Wnit.E the Republican press is •tern'ally bragging about protecting >ur national industries, it might add lliat as a consequence of that protcc:ion it costs farmers and workingfnen forty-six per cent, more to live. Henry George says his mission is |i“to wed religion to economic science.” We do not know just what that means; but it is very evident front the vigorous way in which Mr. George is' collecting money at his meetings that lie suspects the enterprise will be a prolonged and expensive one. ; It seems to us that if Robertson was right in his Lieutenant-Governor case, the Republican party should stand by him, and not cast him aside as they did receut’iy in hi- own county 'by refusing him the chairmanship of their convention, and by tabling, by a large majority, a resolution indorsing his claim to the LieutenantGovernorship. j Henry- George, who is the great \" \v York leader of the so called lai U>r party, recently declared his intensions to kill off t he Democratic party. [ Men of such ideas should remember ! that parties succeed in proportion as tlie principles ti|>on which they are i founded are right or wrong; and that parties organized for the purpose i of destructioiFor treachery will never suocccd, but will invariably destroy themselves. - The Labor party should dispense with Henry George.

Of all thijt hits ever been done for , the cause of young men. nothing ha» endure>l like the influence of the tent- j I iterance revival. Let u« alwavs remember that, whatever impression is made upon a young man. it will make him different from what he would have been without it. Convince a vouug man that narcotics and stimti-j iants arc detrimental to his physical j and moral health, and ifhcha*anv senso he will not use them. If lie j doe- use them, the sooner he dies a j fool the better.. Give us young men I whose idea* are sueli that they will take care of themselves, morally and j physically, and this country will be safe. We have been asked tliai in ease a j railroad tax is voted, the tax collected, j and then the road not built what | would become of the money. In the | first place the tax will not be collected j j until there is an assurance of the road i being built. The law provides, see- i tion 4065, revised statutes of ISS1, the ! tax shall be rcAmded to each tar paytr just what he pays, provided, how- j I ever, that the county commissioners { 1 and the trustee of the township mav j i di t ermine to place the tax so collected | into the township fund, and the same credited on the current taxes of the 1 individuals who pain it.' In either I e.-.s" it is'imply given back to those who paid it. Mu't Excellent' J..J. Atkins, Chief of Police. Knoxville, Tenu., writes; "My family and i I are benetieiaries of your most exei Itent medicine, Dr, King’s New DisIcovery for consumption: having ; tumid it to be all that you claim for ! it, desire to testify to its virture.

Wasn't The Democrat, A Washington citizen requested a Petersburg paper to return thanks to a resident of Petersburg for a present received by the W. citizen from the P. resident, and the editor did so. But it seems to the Sun that it was a pretty bitter pill for the Petersburg editor to swallow, and on the part of the Washingtonian it was ecrtaiuly an exhibition of gall. The first thing the editorial fraterdity knows it will be called upon to go around to private iiouscs and spank babies by the mouth or year.— Vincennes Sun. By v majority of ninety thousand, New York State voted to hold a constitutional convention this vear. But when the question came before the Republican legislature, the holding was postponed for another year. Republicans think this wilt help them in the Presidential contest m 18SS. They have the same mistaken idea when they suppose that-refusing to coniine Governor Hill’s appointments will nlsodvelp them to accomplish what they may find impossible to do by any fair means. The citizens of the Empire state will rebuke them in the all important ^tnpaign of 1SSS. Bloo.m'ixut’ox, Ili.s., Sept. IS, 1SS2. Messrs. F. J.
