OPIHIOiS OF IIEWTOR IT VHOSE FEET THE PIKE CO. C011ISS10HERS WORSHIP. . t Terrible Bltw at The Preja4iee4 If* aeraaee af Local l*ulitici»ns. There seems lo be a concerted effort imong Coiinly Commissioners to throw the Stale school system into confusion by the removal or county superintendents. Within I he last few duys several superintendents have been removed by order of the commissioners, on the ground that they bad not conn»licd with the provisions of the new school-book law relative to filing bonds. The commissioners thus acting either misunderstand the law or are using it as a pretext for removals. See. 0 ot the new law is as: follows:

“As soon as me state uoam oi rmti cation slmll have entered iuto any contract for the furnishing of hooks tor use in the public schools of this State, •nirstiant to the provision of this act', it shall be the duty of the Governor to issue his proclamation announcing suelt fact to the people of this State.” The proclamation is oniv to be issued when the State board shall have entered into a contract tor books. Sec. 10 provides that “within thirty days trout the issuing of the proclamation by the governor, as herein provided for,” it shall be the duty of every county school superintendent lo enter iuto a s|>cciai bond, with at least two freehold securities, for the faithful and honest performance of their ditties, cte. It is for the alleged failure to tile this bond that several county superintendents have been removed. The commissioners making the removals cannot have read the law. The Slate board hai not yet entered iuto any contract tor book*, the Governor ha* not issued any proclamaI,lions on the subject, and even after ! I lie i*«uing of such proclamation, |county superintendents have tliirtv j days in which to fill their bonds. The removals that have been made for I this cause are in plain violation of law. The simultaneous action of the com* j iiiissionera in several counties Indicates that some persbn or party is j working the matter up, and procuring tiie removal of county superintendents I for a purpose.—Indianapolis Journal. | A Republican who would not enj dorse everything the Journal says ! would not he true to Ids jwdilieal rej ligiou. The Journal seems to he able | lo read correctly, a thing which the j (Nilitical blindness of soihe of Tike | county's local politicians seem unable j to do, for wc have heard sonic of the | best ol them declare the op|>osite ot ! I lie aim vc opinion to lie true. Why ! such should lie we cannot tell, unless j the opinion Is one of pure and uuaj duitersted political prejudice. LIFE OFTMECOUSTEY EDITOR. Everybody, almost everybody, | make the editor's business their bush ! ness. Every man owns an interest m 11he pajier, and yet his financial interjest in tlie concern is not such as impel ' him to say a good word for the paper lor to assist it in any way. There ure a e'ass of people who think the editor 'must always accommodate them free of charge, and that the proprietor, | who has two thousand dollars iuveatj td in the plant, must, in addition to j this expense, hire a man at ten dollars I a week to do free advertising fui them. Accordingly every obituary ; for the subscriber and for those not S subscribers is asked for at the expense j or the editor and the proprietor, and jail the “resolutions of eoudolcnees” j for the different fraternities are asked , for free of charge, because the editors ; and proprietors of newspapers arc j very rich (.t) and are growing rich- ! er (?) every dav, and can afford lo pay | the cx|ieiiscs of advertising these I'ra|'eriiities belter than the two and ninej ty money-making members. Half a , cent.a piece f t lie member*of il.es» concern* would bank-nipt them, but two or three dollars out ofthe editor's lioeket will benefit (?) him. for it brings the wolf that much closer to Ids door and Increases his energy by j driving him to increased industry hi i his attempt to scare the wolf. And j tkeic is the grocer who must have his ! business mentioned casually, and the merchant's business must be treated as well, aud the butcher must not be slighted, aud the milliner, and shoemaker, and dressmaker, and jeweler*-, and smiths, and millers, aud all business enterprises of whatsoever name from “A” lo “izaanl and soforth” : must be “just casually incutioned” in ! sitcli a way as to do each aud every brauch of business financial good, but j in such a way as to make it “sound ! like news," so that it can be done/ree. j Also the churches must not he neglected, and even lawn party, excursion, picnic, aud supper, given for the benefit of anything front the poor to the millionaire must lie advertised free because it is a money-making !scheme which iltoeditoi must assist, tor lie is a public servant upon whom all must depend, hut lie must make uo charges—lie is a money-maker, and twenty dollars a week .without spy income is nothing to him. Aud there 1* “John Jones, Esq., 'Justice of the lVacc.” lie must also be mentioned and iu tiiat squib he must he made to feel proud of hi* calling—free of charge, remember;'and every taw-; yer in the country must las blown to, Hie “fifth heaven’' the fifth lime every j year, aud if one single time is missed ilie slighted man will be after ye editor with one of lliose peculiar “damns”, with which most men of legal uiind j are wont to defeat all opposition, j ami with it emphasize their belief. that some ottc is influencing the editor, against him. TVs, these are fad!*,' aud they are not magnified, either., Any one of our readers will find by j trial that he can mu get a four page; eight column iiMvajapetr **i in type

and printed one single copy,hiring all the work, for less than twenty-fire dollars in any office in the United States; and vet we furnish just such a l>nj*er tiftv-two times for a dollar an«l tweiitv-flve cents. Why then should any one complain of the price, try t» get the paper for less money, much less get it on credit, or let it run delinquent ? We have men ou our list delinquent from one to five'vears. Such men must beexensed on the grounds of one of threshings: ignorant of the j»aper*s necessities and hardships, dishonesty, or poverty. But wlia' is the use? An editors money is like his brains—limited—and as the limit of money puts the “wherewith” for a prepondcrencc of that |>otnpcsitr enjoyed by the man having a large stomach, entirely beyond the editor's reach, he is in a bad war, having neither stomach, money nor brains. Still he’s a contrary curr. And goes a contrary way; While others go to prosperity. He don't, for be don’t get his pay.

Since I lie Republican party was fir-t organized it has passed as the especially political friend of the colored man, without the Republlc.ni party no negro could breathe the air or eat his food, or worship his god, or rest liis tired limbs at uigl.t under his own vine and fig tree without molcstion Such arc the claims of the Republican iwrtv under all circumstance touching upon the negro question. The preset l authority at the head of tlic government no doubt would use the above assertions in argument to show that the negro should vole the Republican ticket on evert- question from the head to the tail of the ticket. Such is always the case so long as a vote Is to be gotten, but when a reward for honest support is at stake the negro seems to fare less sumptuously under Republican than he docs under [democratic rule. The latest news upon this point is that which comes from Washington city concerning acts ot IVesidcut Harrison in dismissing some of the old negro servants at the capital (o make room for the old servants of Loid Sa^villcWest—English servants, loo! This is the great love the Republican pa^tv boasted of during the c&npaigu. The Democrats were assailed with ll»e false allegation that the Democratic party was in favor of the English rather than Americans. The difference is that the Democrats have acted out a love for Americans while the present Republican administration is acting out a love for the English. Harrison's 1'rivate Secretary an Englishman; his servants English people, and his own people, as far as possible. put out for them ! What can it mean? Looking at the action of the two great parties, which one shows l*v act and deed, to be the true friend of the Americans and of American institutions? “Actions speak louder than words."_ llusuier Items.

The farmer and the Tariff. from the report ef Secretary of the Treasurer \V indent it appears that during the mouth of Mar, ISS, the farmer* of thin country sent out to Kuro|>e and the rest of the world ov er three miltiou and a half barrets of flour, nearly three million bushels of w beat, more tun three mitlhm bushels of corn, aud other breadstuff*, such as barley, cornineal, oats, rye, etc., the whole amount exported being valued at $9,710,8114. The total ipiautity of breadstuff* sent aw ay from the I’nited States in the eleven UKiiibsending May SI, IN**, is valued at $111,040,697. bearing-in mi ml that the farthers exported this vast quautity of breadstuff's to foreign markets, them to compete with breadstuff's i raised iu India, in Russia, in Algeria, in I Australia and in South America, the outcry recently raised over the formation of a trust in binder twine, w bich w ill cost each farmer but a few dollars extra t*r annum, is somewhat remarkable. The fanner has to pay j from A"> to ii per rent, duty on cotton goods, as high as 60 i«er cent, on earthenware, $0 to SO i-er cent, ou hats, 43 per cent, on farm machinery, 00 to To per ceui. ou the woolen clothing he wears and SO to *» per cent, on ] ius boots aud shoes—all for the purpose of enriching a class which is not only not large enough to compete foraud consume his preducts, which, therefore, have to seek a foreign market at any price, but a class w hich is absolutely careless whether American agriculture lives or dies. Even" if the American farmer does not -see the cal” within the next four years, bis awakening pi the true state of affairs ; cannot be much longer delayed. The Struggteis one of the most unequal and absurd j that have been witnessed since governmentsj were organized. The protected are a class; which produces what ia recognized as the! ••staff of fife”—the most necessary product ‘

■nicies of secondary importance, manv of them. Indeed, being pure luxuries, bat which says: “We are not numerous enough to consume your breadstuff*; it to not that you produce more than the nation could eat, tor many thousands daily go hungry for lack of even bread; but we have persuaded this nation that you are only of inferior merit and use, while our products are magnified into the sine qua non of existence.” While this state of things exists, it to preposterous that a single fanner should rote to cmgtiuue it. lie utay go on toiltug year in autfyear out. and the more grain he raises the poorei he will be relatively fer his extra trouble. He has no lever with whieh to raise the price of bis products by a hair’s breadth, while the maker or everything else be needs, and even of luxuries for whieh his j sons and daughters sigh, has a horde of paid lobbyists watching that not a cent shall be j lifted from the burden that has been grad.' uully placed on the fanner’s broad shoulders. If it were otherwise, if the manufacturers and those whom they employ could j constitute a home market for the pro- : ducts of the soil, so that the fanner had an equal opportunity of commanding bis own price for those products, the demand of the protectionist manufacturer would be less j selfish, less unjust. Hut the boasted home market has never existed, and it will be : many years before it will exist, meanwhile it is not too much to say that for every dollar’s worth of bnu dsluff* the farmer export* he has to take in exchange bareley To eeuts’ worth of other necessaries.

Q 1 YEARS O I AGO the Threshing Machines then in use were almost wholly of the class known as the “ Endless Apron" style. Then it was that Nichols & Shepard, cf Battle Creek, Mich, .invented a n d began to develop an entirely new and novel style of Grain Thresher and Separator,which they very appropriately named the “Vibrator.** It was a revolution in Threshing Machines, and from, a small beginning of five machines in 1858 they soon reached a product of 1,000 yearly. ■‘Their Vibrator drove the “ Endless Apron” machine out of market, and all other make rs copied it as closely as they dared. Today all Threshing Machines of any reputation or meri t use the principles of the old Vibrator. Nichols ft Shepard have continued in the business without change of name, location, or management; and durijag the past three years have brought out and developed anot her new Threshing Machine for grain and seeds, as superior to all existing machines as their former was to the ‘Endless Apron.* They name this new and improved Tlhresher iiillHK VIBRATOR and predict as great a re volution in the trade, and as c omplete success over all rivals as they had thirty-one years age. ax a Fumes orThreshwrite for particulars, nfiiich they and free.
