“By their fruits, shall ye know them.*-This old but true saying .comes moat forcibly to our minds during the present campaign.

A full representation from each township was preseut and all expressed themselves as being eon Aden t Qf the success of the entire ticket. Hon. A- M. Sweeney, present ■Jerk of the supreme court, was also present and made many good and wholesome suggestions to the committee. A plan of the campaign was mapped out that if billowed will lead to success iu November. President Harrison is out iu a let ter accepting the republican nominaliou for tlie presidency. It is a long, very long affair. Harrison’s giandfathcr was a'verv long-winded fellow and he has followed iu the footsteps of his gramlsire. It is a very lame letter of acceptance, and makes but a teeble effort to cover up ilic misdoings of his henchmen iu the past three years of his administration. The tariff aud reciprocity ir.nas ores takes up the main part of the letter.

Republican papers have been asserting that the murderer of laboring men, Frick, was a democrat. Such is not the caso. In a recent number of the Current Literature, a literary magazine, we find the following which shows conclusively that Frick whs not one of us: Intellectually’he Is a wide reader, lsln'erested in polltlcul matters, be an active republican, and while he belongs to n number of clubs he 1*almost invariably at home during his hours ol leisure. The republican palters in speaking of the great benefits they claim to have resulted from their administrations always point with pride to our beautiful larms and splendid crops. We wonder if they will also be willing to shoulder the responsibility, of the present dry spell. They certainly >ught to do so, when they claitja the credit for bountiful crops raised from (leaven’s rain and sunshine. The Press lias hoisted the William J. Bethel for representative. Wall, that’s funny, but then the “Big Four” had something to do with it. A. few weeks ago the organ of the republican party in, its columns stated 10 the people that Emmet M. Smith was the nominee. How quick the change. Anyhow who is the nominee. The campaign in Pike county will he opened up next Friday at Winslow by ex-Govonor Gray. The democrats of Pike county should not fail to hear the govenor on this occasion, lie will present the great issues before tho people iu a clear and forcible manner go that they maybe understood by all. i TlHfc'Vprsl “fake” ever perpetrated in Petersburg and Pike county is a newspaper called the f'llews.” The news in the “Nows” is from three to six weeks old and has a full growth of superbly trimmed IJnglish “mutton cliops.” riai ante of Tnp dcijiqoratlc party is one of live issues and definite purposes.

The School Fund Sequestered by die “War Governor.” brp luerraie ol the State Debt Caused by the I'.rcetlon of pibllt Building*. The Jiifcimljns A«t of • Detuoerttlle Legislators Reduce* the I^feyeet Over One Hundred Thonaand Dollar*. The Democratic party did not create the state debt The offici al records in the state house will verify this statem&t Take the three per cent school fund refunding bonds for example. This debt, amounting to nearly $ 1,001.000, was created by Governor Morton. Without legislative authority the “war governor” laid his band in the school fund to meet the obligations of a reckless Republican administration. This school fund, amounting to $3,604,788.23, represented the proceeds of a certain percentage of the earnings of the old state bank, set apart for ii permanent school fund. Morton shaving “borrowed” this fund, bonds were issued by subsequent legislatures bearing 8 per cent, interest payable semi-annu-ally. These lionds were held in trust by the state treasurer for the school funa. They were known as sohool fund bonds, and dated as follows1-. j ' ’' No. 1, Jan. 1, 1367..t 703,024 85 No. 2, Jan. 20, 1867... 2,658,057 30 No. 8, May 1, 1368... 184,234 00 No. 4, Jan, 90, 1871.:. 174,770 00 No. 5, May 5,1373..,. 175,767 07 The interest amounted to $234,286.89 annually. The Democratic legislature of 1889 authorised the refunding of this debt at 8 per cent. In the debt statement of the auditor’s report for 1888, the bonded debt is placed under the head of “domestic debt,” and described as “school fund bonds No. ), No. 2, eta.’' With last auditor's report (1861, p. 43.) it will be fount! under the title of foreign debt,” and classed te three per cent, refunding school fund bonds dated Jane 18,1889. and payable at the pleasure of the state June 8, 1839, due June 18, 1909.”' The bonds sold at a premium, and with the proceeds the state redeemed five school bonds. The money was then distributed among the counties and loaned out by the county auditors in sums of not exceeding $3,000 at 6 per cent, interest. This Democratic financiering saved the state $117,267.16 annually in interest, and at the same time placed in circulation within the state nearly $4,000,000. While the Democratic party is entitled to the credit of refunding this debt, the Republican party is responsible for its creation. The total amount of interest actually paid on this Republican debt by the state since its creation until refunded was $4,685,740. Since it was refunded the shite has paid in interest $431,801.42, making a total of $5,117,541.43 which the state paid; in interest qn the Morton debt. In ofdgr to rnebt this interest often temporary loans had to be made. Had it not been for this annual drain of $-334,333.99 the state would have managed to pull through without resorting to loans. Adding the money actually paid but on account of this debt to the principal wo have $9,322,324.64.

For this debt the Republicans can not point to a single pnblio building. When Porter became governor the debt was $4,876,008.45. It was $4,850,850.37, with a deficit of $200,000, when Governor Baker turned over the executive office to Governor Hendricks. When Porter retired the deht was $0,008,500.34. In 1885 an additional burden was placed upon the state without providing means for the raising additional revenues. Three additional hospitals fot the insane were authorised to be erected. Sis millions of dollars were appropriated. Governor Porter appointed a commission, of which he was the head, to construct and equip the new buildings. All the work was planned and contracted under Governor Porter’s administration, but it was under Governor Gray's administration that the money had to be paid. The cost of construction and equipment was $1,418,591.39. Since these institutions were opened up to Oct. 80, 1890, the coat of maintenance was $503,729.79, making a total of $1,955,883.18, and which the state had to borrow. Then the legislature of 1887, with a Democratic senate and Republican house, authorized the erection of the Soldiers’ monument and the Feeble Minded school at Fort Wayne. The monument has already cost $169,219, and an additional tax of one-half cent on the $100 valuation has been levied to raise enough money to complete it. The Feeble Minded school has already cost the state over $400,000. Up to 1887 a state house tax levy of i two cents was levied each year. The ! failure to renew the tax made it neces-; sary to borrow $700,000 to complete and equip the state house. State Debt.

JAMES il’CABE. James McCabe, condidate for judge of the supreme court, Third district, was raised on a farm in Indiana, engaged sev'eral years thereafter as a common laborer, until his earnings in that tray enabled him to go to school, and acquire a common school education. Ue afterward taught school a year or two, married young, and aftcrwurd studied law without any preceptor and was admitted to the bar. He has been successful in his practice and has accnmmulated thereby enough of this world's goods so that it jn*7 he said he is in easy circumstances. His raising and tastes naturally incline him to the'farm. So, after over twenty years’ active- practice and residence in Williamsport, the county seat, in 1881 be purchased and moved to a farm, where he iiow lives, within two and a half miles of the court house, and carries on his farm. Pe is now fifty-five years old. He walks every morning two and onehalf mflps to his office in preference to riding. i. ' ■ i Mr. McCabe was twi<» the nominee of his party for congress, \and both times made speeches in every township in the district. Fifth District.

TIMOTHY E. HQWAKD. Timothy E. Howard, candidate for Judge of the supreme court, Fifth district, was born on a farm near Ann Arbor, Jan. I 27, 1837. He was educated in the common schools a$d University of Michigan. He; lived on a farm aud taught common schools until twenty-one years of age. In 1869 he removed to South Bend, studied law and was engaged as professor of rhetoric and English literature in the University of Notre Dame. He enlisted in the Twelfth Michigan infantry soon after the outbreak of the war. He was severely wounded at Shiloh April 8,18«2, and lay for two months' in the Marine hospital at Evansville, where ho was discharged as unfit for further service. In 1878 he was elected a member of the common council at South Bend; was re-elected and served three terms. In 1818 he was elected clerk of the St. Joseph circuit court. In 1886 he was elected to the state senate from St. Joseph aud Stark counties, aud was re-elected in 1890. He is the author of the Momence bill.for, the drainage of the Kankakee valley and | was chairman of the special senate •committee in charge of the senool text-book law. 'j*1 ■ | He secured the extension of .the new election law to township and city elec;, tionsnud drafted the new revenue law. : He also introduced the bill for the establishment of the appellate court. He had' charge in the senate of Indianapolis’s city charter, also of the suburban street railway bill. He is at present city at* torney of South Bend and county attorney of St Joseph county. APPELLATE COURT. Fifth District

G. E. ROSS. George E. Ross, candidate for judge of the appellate court from the Fifth district, is a native of Peru, Ind., and son of Judge N. O. Ross. At the age of fourteen he entered the Wabash college, where he pursued his, studies three years, almost finishing the sophomore course. On quitting college he entered the law department of the state university, where he t v mained a limited period, and then read law with his father until 1871, at which time he was admitted to the bar, being then hut nineteen years of age. His first case, that of Harvey vs. The People’s Bank, waa tried in the superior court at Logansport in the fall of 1878, he appearing for the plaintiff, and Judge Oyiceinan, Windfleld, McConnell and ids own father for the defense. The jnry failing ui agree upon a verdict, the case was taken onchange of venue to Miami county, where the young attorney gained a complete victory for his client. The case was then appealed to the supreme court, which also rendered a decision in his favor. Mr. Ross has made a creditable record as a lawyer. Millionaires ami the Tariff. The New York Tribune la printing what purports to be a- complete list of millionaires in the United States by States and territories, with a statement of the lines of business in which th^y have made their fortunes. The avowed object of this publication is to prove that only a small Dro portion of our wemeuy men are indebted to protection for their riches. The first installment oovers eleven states and the District of Columbia. Following is a general statement complied from the detoila given by The Tribune, showing the number of millionaires in each who acquired their wealth iu protected industries, unprotected industries and the manufacture pf patented articles respectively: Alabama. Arkansas Protected. .. S California.............. 33 Colorado.... .....I.,... 1 Connecticut,.......'.... 83 Delaware.. 10 District of Columbia.. • Florida.8 Georgia.9 Idaho. J Hnois. M

, not extensively pursued. Nearly all are rather agricultural or mining than manufacturing, rad yet 23 per cent of the millionaires are admitted io have acquired their wealth in protected industries. In the second place, the showing for Connecticut, the only strictly manufacturing state in the list, is thirty-five who made their money in unprotected industries, thirty-two who made theirs in protected industries, and twelve who got rich manufacturing protected articles. The Tribune admits that these last may be tariff protected, and classes them separately for that reason. In point of fact they are protected by the tariff, for machine is admitted free of tax. Beally. therefore, forty-four of the Connecticut millionaires are, by The Tribune’s own showing, indebted to the tariff for their fortunes. Tnat is. 55.7 per cent, of the whole number aro tariffmade millionaires. Such are the conclusions from The Tribune’s own classification. But that classification is not to be accepted without question. Upon examining the list one quickly discovers that very many of those placed in the category of the unprotected are admitted to have made more or less of their gains out of "investments," - ‘•securities,” and "etceteras,” which may easily mean protected manufactures. It is a fact that a great many merchants, railroad officials and others who are not known as mannfactr urers are in reality largely interested as stockholders in protected manufacturing enterprises, and may have derived the greater part of their wealth from these sources. *' A great many people who are known to the public as lawyers, merchants, officers of railroad, insurance and other corporations, or as men in other unprotected occupations, undoubtedly got their start in such occupations, and yet acquired most of their wealth by investment in the shares of protected industrial enterprises. The Tribune's classification is therefore very defective, and its lesg list of millionaires proves nothing. Senator Sherman has grown rich in office. So has Secretary Blaine. We are not to infer that their wealth is only what they have managed to save out of their salaries—Chicago Herald. JBv.n Ohioan* Couldn’t Do It The failure of the Ohio Republican state legislature to secure an indorsement at the hands of the Republican state convention ig the first time in history that the Republican party in any state in the Union failed to indorse the corrupt acts of its servants.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

Labor Dissatisfaction Spreading Notwithstanding the McKinley Tar Ilf. Judging from the editorial page of the Indianapolis Journal, there are no classes of people in this country more Eospevoaa and better contented, than e American workmen. But if the .readers of the state organ of the G. O. "P. will thra to the telegraphic reports they will find a long list of strikes, lockouts, etc., to demolish the prosperity manufactured to order in The Journal's editorial rooms. For example: The Journal of May 1. nnder the caption, ‘•The Annual Strike Fever,” summarizes the labor trouble as follows: About 400 hundred house carpenters went on strike in Baltimore May 9. The lumber shovers on Chequanegon bay, Wis., were getting forty cents an hour, but 6truck. Eight hundred coal-handlers are on a strike at Cleveland for fourteen cents per ton. This is an increase of two cents a ton in some cases. Boston boiler manufacturers have voted to refuse their employes a reduction of hours to nine a day. they threaten to lock out every union man. Building operations at Saginaw,Mich., are at a standstill. The bricklayers,who have been receiving $3.50 per day, have struck for an advance of $1 a day. Nearly a thousand workmen employed in the quarries in and near Stony Creek, Conn., are on strike for a nine-hour day and an increase of one cent per hoar over the rates now paid. Over 600 employes in the Boonton (N. J.)iron mill were notified that if the Since was to continue in operation nnder ae present depressed state of the iron market, they would have to accept a 10 per cent, reduction in wages. The iron workers on the manufacturers’ building at the world’s fair grounds,1 Chicago, are on strike for thirty-five cents per hour. Tho present rate is' thirty cents. The workmen on the ad-1 ministration building were granted thir-ty-five cents, after a fonr-hour strike. Two hundred men on the Kentucky Central and Louisville and Nashville roads, including transfer hands, switch-1 men, yardmen, sectionmen and laborers,! have struck on account of a reduction in wages from $1.65 to $1.95 a day. The'predict all the men along the line will join the strike. - The united’ German and English carpenters, of New York, went ou strike May 9 because of the failure of- the; master framers and carpenters to sign an j agreement fixing a schedule of prices for labor. This agreement has been made every year, but this year, when it | was presented, only nineteen ont of the ' forty-five bosses signed.

the citizens to turn out en masse, farm bucket brigades and light the conflagration as best they could. Others were busily engaged in saving all movable goods possible, and this reduced the losses many thousands of dollars. Tire fire started in Frau): Harris’ restaurant and swept everything before it from Frank Casey’s north on Main street to the Evansyille and Terre Haute railroad, qrhioh proved a barrier that the fire was unable to cross. The loss cannot be estimated at this time, but will reaeh several .thousand dollars. Tins buildings destroyed were mostly frame and burned with great rapidity. Only a portion of the stock in each business concern was saved. The insurance on buildings will amount to $2,GOO, and probably an equal sum on stock, household goods, etc. The losers are: - F. A.
