The ocrats are now on the alert anil at the convention at Chicago nejet week yvill nominate the winning ticket. The democrats by good organizations carry Indiana by 10.00Q luajority against Benjamin Harrison. ‘ ■■ _ Tiik platform upon which the republican nominee for president inusf stand and which \vas adopted at Minneapolis.last week is lamentably weak in inapy jiarlieiilars. 11 y a careful reading one tyijf see that the party is not eoiutiiftted to anything in ptfflicular and has straddled all finest ions, except the ojitrageons high tarijr system, tl»e foplest blot to-day 011 the w«rkjngnien of the UnitcfJ Stales. The saipeold gag about free eleclions is again worked in, yet the framers of the platform have forgoften all about the “Blocks of Five” and the 1S70 steal. “Free and unrestricted ballot iii all elections, he he rich or poor.’' Now lhat sounds well, but when the election comes ulose gt hand, the party schemers “crack the whip” and cal) on tlio monopolists to shell out that they wju jn thecleclion anil thus enrich the few at the eft - pease of tlie millionaires, “Old Reciprocity” comes in for a good word. It is a document in favor of the monopolists when read between the lines. Among the miscellaneous “planks’* if affirms its love for the poor and oppressed iyorkipg|pen of this country and all foreign countries. But this “plank” does not count as it is only thrown in for “filling.” The workingmen have had a sample of the “protection” guaranteed.them four years ago in the way of ten and twenty-five per cent cuts in their wages. “Suivel Service” gets a word, as does the Nicarauga canal, gold and silver and the present administrations To sum it up as a whole it is a very weak platform.

Tub democratic congressional convention meets at Evansville tomorrow, Hon. A. H. Taylor, of this city, who is a candidate, returned from a canvass of the district Saturday and lias every hope of receiving the nomination at tlie hands of the convention. The canvass has been a lull'd one, but has been one of the (riendTiest feeling among the opposing candidates, and should either Mr. Taylor, Parrott or Kramer receive tho nomjnation, the others will jump into the tight ant| help elect him by a rousing majority. Pike county should haye the preference, ft js a very close county and therefore tlie (ipipination ! should be giyen to hsH’ candidate. Give Mr. Taylpr your support. Said a prominent republican to ns Friday evening, “if Harrison is nominateij l will not support him under any cousiueration. I am for . lilaine or any other good man as against tlie prespnt president.” Petersburg is full of just such republicans. They are disgusted with the way in which Benny secured his clecliou four years ago, and do not countenance vote buying or any other crooked methods in which to make party success. 'Presidential buying is played out with the American people.

-MISREPRESENTING T0HE FACTS. Peanut Polities linn tQ Seed. The Republicans in their attacks on the new tax law see. only the tricks oi politics by which they can create a wrong impression as to the increase of revenue the state derives from the taxes collected on the assessment of last year. The counties are making their May settlement with the auditor of state on that assessment, and because the thousands of voters do not understand how the settlement is made and what is the exact amount due the state The Journal is ihisrepresenting the figures. The total amount collected, as expressed on a county auditor’s abstract, is not paid the state, and no one but a partisan paper, M to all shame of political morality, jvould .dare lie about the settlements that are being uncle ss> The Journal is doing. Yesterday that paper gave the eight counties that settled Wednesday after this style: Counties Settling. Jennings, 1892.. Jennings, 1881. .Increase of tax_ Harrison, 1892..;... Harrison, 1891...... Increase of tax.... Hamilton, 1892. Jlamilton, 1891. Increase of tax.... Amount paid in.' Increase. $13,309 19 7,082 91 $5,626 35 13,351 90 9,851 80 3,397 li| 30,088 48 18,031 90 11,436 32 These are three counties out of the eight that settled, the others being Jasper, Warren, Elkhart, Bartholomew and Clinton. Of the eight all are under the pontrol-of Republican commissioners except Bartholomew and Harrison. Had The Journal been relieved of partisan bias in dealing with a bit of current iur formation it would have shown \yhat the state really received and what the counties retained on their school fund account. The statements would then have appeared thus:

The general state levy, twelve cents, has not been inereasedi.fe’Qt the legislature of 1891 provided for the six cents levy in addition, the law therefor stating explicitly that “the proceeds of the tax herein levied is hereby appropriated to the use of the benevolent and reformatory institutions of the state.” Out of the total amount paid the state has but the use of that collected for general revenue. The rest is raised for the benevolent and reformatory institutions, the soldiers' monument, university endowment fund, and the -school fund interest.—Indianapolis Sentinel. The Price of Nulls ami the Tariff. A recent issue of the organ of the American P-otective Tariff league was adorned with a picture of a beer keg labeled “wire nails” and of a man in the act of driving a nail into a fence. Beneath this very impressive work of art we read: “It is only a few years ago when, under a new tariff, wire nails were so dear that farmers could not afford to buy them at all. How, under the J^plvinley law, they sell cheaper thau ever before, and the farmer can drive them knowing that • he is driving absolutely the best and cheapest wire hails in the world.” One one side of the picture is the statement that the tariff tax on wire nails is two cents a pound. From a document prepared under the direction of the senate finance committee we learn that two cents a pound is the McKinley rate on wire nails, two inches long or more. And we further learn that the rate under the old law of 1888 was four cents a pound. "Was that the new tariff to which the organ refers under which farmers could not afford to buy wire nails? If cutting off half the tax has given the American fanner the best and cheapest wire nails in the world, what would be the effect of cutting off the other half ? And of what possible use to anybody is the other half if we now have “the cheapest wire nails in the yvorld 7' If we have the cheapest there can be no need whatever of protection against foreign competition.—Chicago Herald,. Where ItepubUcaiiism Is a Tax. The levy of six and one-half cents to pay off the state debt amounts to $8,871.79 in Johnson county. To relievo the people of this burden the tax law was devised to so equalise assessments as to make corporations pay their just proportion of revenue. Accordingly, railroads alone in this county are taxed $6,818.74 more than last year. This, together with the increase on telegraph property, and the reveuue derived from property heretofore withheld from taxation, is about equal to the increased state tax, and one offsets the other as was intended by the general assembly. But the Republican officials in the two townships and three corporations under their control have increased the revenue $9,521.46 ahd can give no reason for their action. Republicanism is a tax with a bix T.—Franklin Democrat.

The Krtls of Indirect Taxation. The indirect system of taxation works so indirectly and so subtly, as President Harrison says, that “the plain people don’t know they are paying any taxes to the government at all.” Harrison, in ids statement, confesses that the system exists in lien of the ignorance of the plain people, the masses, the workingjnen of the country. Shame on such statesmanship! such hypocracy! That would perpetuate an nujust system of fixation, because the plnin people in their ignoranco don't know they pay tips taxes. This is a fine confession of a great man to make. No man can deny that the burden of ap indirect system of taxation rests on. the masses in favor of j the classes and those who dt> pot see it, Should study the question, free from prejudice, bo they may learu the truth, for the truth alone makes men free. A free trade wool’grower remarked to The Tribune editor that he had been confronted by the argument that wool | would not be wcp th eleven cents a pound i if made free, if the geptlepion who make this statement will compare Bos- j ton qnd London prices for the i»st year ’ they will find that there is but little dif- j ferenoe, Louden paying *%htly highei j pieces.—Rockville Tribune. ’ J

I hope the day is^ot far distant when mothers will consider the real interest of their children, and use Castoria instead of the various quack nostrums which are destroying th«ir lov*£ ones, by forcing opium, morphine, soothing syrup and other hurtful agents down their throats, thereby sending them to premature graves.” Du.
