He has gpno over to the penitentiary. ggggaag*.. ..Li j—i—ss Tiik United States supreme com I have held that the election law's of Michigan are good and that the electors shall he elected by congressional —districts.

It wiU be ihe light capper this election for the republican election inspectors to open the polls op lime ami not wait until nine or ten o’clock in the forenoon. Open up on time tliat every .citizen may vote. SBgF'JJ-"!1.1.. ■ Jl-Jt Tiikiik is a certain republican who once held Ihe office of sheriff that is working mighty hard for* a couple of candi4gtes that he may act as deputy in both positions. He is always looking for the soft side «»t a board.

Jf (he farmers of Pike county want commissioners who will look after tlioir interests they should yote tor Abbott and Duckworth. They are well qualified and will make excellent guardians of the interests of the people of Pike county. It will be eitlier Cleveland or Harrison. Choose ye. Waller Q. Gresham, the jur|st, statesman and gallant soldier, has declared that Grover Cleveland is his choice. Thousands of other independent voters of lids country are doing likewise. It would be a wise thing for some of our republican exchanges, and the Press of Petersburg, Pike county, Indiana, to publish the speech of Gen. Sickles, which apjsears in another column, giving his reasons whv hois a democrat and for that prince of all statesmen, Grover Cleveland. They publish the other report of the General, and shouldmow return the favor. The voters irrespective of party have a chance of electing a giod and sound board of commissioners at the coming election. The expose given in The Democrat of the way in which lire republican board of commissioners have raised the lax levy in Pike ■county have set them to thinking that “republicanism in Pike county is a tax.” Look to your interests and vote for Duckworth and Abbott. The following appealed in the Indianapolis Nows of October 12th, in regard to governor Chase. We give it tor y/hat it is worth as it appeared in a republican naper; His general utility was well shown one day last week In Petersburg, said Secretary Roberts; “lie baptised a baby early In the morning. made a speed) an conducted a funeral In the afternoon and married a couple la the evening. The trouble is that the people ask him to fip too much. He can not possibly make all the speeches asked for.

There are a few republicans who are posing as people’s party men, but { will never yote that ticket. Oh, no, that is not in ihelv line of business. They are working under the advice of the republican managers, and their sole purpose is to get as many democrats to vote the people’s party ticket as possible and have the republicans vote the g. o. p. ticket straight. Don't be led off by these snappers but give them the laugh. James Bhumfield, chairman of the republican central committee, has had printed and circulated sample ba'lots of the local ticket. The local ticket has not yet been made up by the election commissioners appointed for that purpose. The ballot shows on its face the name of William J. But hell for representative. This local ballot is not vet made up, but shows the way in which the Bethel! gang are working. It is not an official ballot. It is extensively rumored that one of the campaign tricks protected bv Republicans is for a lew ot their number to feign favor for the People's party and to preteud to support Weaver to fool democrats into doing likewise; but when election day comes and they go into privacy of their booths they will every one stamp the eagle and thus yote for Harrison, iju democrat should be deceived by suuh a shallow trick. The colored people of Rvansville held a meeting in that city last Monday evening in which they denounced tho republican party and A. P. Twineham, republican candidate for congress in this district. I>r. Buckner in Dial meeting said : — The republican candidate for congress of the First .district of Indiana— Kon. A. P. Twineham is his name, a man whom you ap called upon to vote for-ls accredited with making the following remark to a merchant of this city: “We republicans could get uloug much better If we could get rid of the nigger,” 1-Yes,” said the merchant, “there are two or three men In my store who would vote the republtpan ticket if the nig, gers were not )u tl)p way ” . He we men and stiller such Insults? From : the very men, ttfc, that wo have tylwaya voted for and helped Into office? I, for one, reject the trou pot on my head or the padlock on my tips. This county will be flooded, by republicans, within the next week or tWQ with representations of the money issued years ago under tho “wildcat” system qf state currency. They plain} tl*e democrats propose to reissue this saipe tpotiev. Republican leaders resort |p this bob] lie, because they have to defend tho McKinley tariff, and Force bills. Democrats '»!•! pot be fooled by this surf of a campaign. Qn this question the Kokomo Dispatch asks: “Opn nay democrat, In the light of Ids par, fy‘s history on the money question, a party that has afways stood for u safe und holiest d frqm h)s alleglcnce hy any man who, answering 1ms determined to y of honest govhg stayed by the

Republican papers have been howling themselves hoarse lor some lime over th.c fact that Gen. stickles made a speech at Ihe national encampment which praised I* some extent President Harrison. They were dead sure that the general would vote the republican ticket, but It hardly looks that way. This is what he says of Grover Cleveland; Now os to President Cleveland’s record In behalf of the soldiers. They charge that he f etoed a good many pension bills. So he has. I hove rend bta views. I mil a sgl<|ler. X love my soldiers. Had I been President and a Congress had poised such bills for my soldiers I should have vetoed every one of them, too. They were mostly all fyands and shams, and I had no frauds under me. --tup right-minded man ftoorn to discharge his duty would have signed these vetoed Vs President Cleveland did. General Sickles, continuing, gave President Cleveland's rycord regarding pension bills, and said: “1 think the republicans should hang their heads In shame In the presence of such a record.” The following is a partial list of men of prominence who have made known their intentions of voting tor Cleveland and Tariff Reform. Wayne McVeigh, of Pennsylvania. Gen. Gresham, of Illinois. Otto Gresham, of Indiana. Gen. J. 1). Cox, twice republican governor Of Ohio, and brigadier-general under Sherman and Graut. W. K. Moore and Wm, A Meese, formerly city attorneys of ltoek Island, Illinois. Ex-Mayor Uardtng, of Fort Wayne. Ex-Congressman White, of Fort Wayne. d 1 on T.R. McDonald, of Fort Wayne. , Hon. Andy Purmnn of Fort Wayne. J ndge Cooley, of Michigan. Bishop A. M. Brown, of the Afrloan M. E. church, Nashville, Tennessee Dr. Monroe, editor of the Seymour Journal.

James Yrtder, John and Thomas Bolting, old soldiers of Nashville, Indiana want Geu. Black back again In the pension office. John Cadwullader, Madison. • C. A. Coffey, Spencer. Dr. Morrison, an old soldier of Churuhuaco has taken the stump. Hon. John Overmyer, Seymour, former chairman of the republican central commit-, toe. I voted for Harrison Inst time, but when the republicans have had chances to benefit the working classes they have allowed tbe opportunities to slip. To crown all, they have ta-keU a man to the ticket who has always been opposed to organised labor. So I have mode up my mind this time to vote for Cleveland—James Mortimer, of the Hew York Car Drivers' Union. George Hippie, Washington Adkins and Frank Norton, supertntoudeut of rolling mil s.ANew Ibany. J. W. Hall, of New Albany. He says: ”1 have been a lifelong republican I cast my first vote for Lincoln and the last ouo for Bon Harrison and protection, and the reelcoilon of Mr. Harrison means starvation to the Inboring classes.” Judge Hare of Oregon. Col. Wesley Seaton, Grantsburg. George Brooks, ol Frankfort, Ind., an old grand army man who campaigned the state four years ago for Harrlsoh, says: “I’ve been a republican for twenty-five years. I am a veteran and fought Tor the freedom of the people of this countryi but I don’t want any force bill In my polities. 1 am out for Cleveland and Stevenson and democracy.” Hon. Delano E. Williamson, a former at-torney-general of Indiana. Henry George, tbe great reformer of New York, has taken the stump for Cleveland. District-Attorney Green, of Fulton county, N. Y. Col. K u nez, of Buffalo, N. Y. This is only a sample lot of the many ' thousands of soldiers and statesmen who have signified their intention of voting for tariff reform and the democratic ticket. There are thousands of citizens In Indiana who nil! walk lip to the polls in November and vole their sentiments. They are not saying a word now, but wait and hear the returns. The people favor a revision of Ihe tariff, and they also believe in giving (o the defender of bis country bis just duos—that which rightfully belongs to him.

If you want to vote a Sthaight DkmocitATlc Ticket, stump \vitbiu the 914 squ auk containing the Koostku at the top of the ticket. If you stamp within the big square yog must not stamp any where else or yog will lose your vote. You must not mark 9.11 the ballot with anything but the stump. You must not stamp except on the squares. If you accidently stamp off a square, return your ballot to the troll clerks and get a new one. Don’t stamp inside the square but once. You must Told your ballot before coming out of the booth, so that the face will not show and the intials of the poll clerks on the back will show. The following information will help the voter. 1. If the voter wishes any information as to the manner of voting he may ask the poll clerks. 2. There are tw,o ballot boxes and two ballots to be voted. One ballot box is painted red and is for the state ballot,which ballot is on redpaper; the other ballot-box is painted white and is for the county ticket, w bich ticket is on white pnper. 8. The voter enters the room, tells the poll clerks his napm; the clerks give him the two bmlots to be voted and a stamp; (the Rtamp is a little stick with a rubber on the end oi it;) the voter goes alone into one of the booths with the two ballots and the stamp; in the booth on t little shell be will find au.ink pad^lhls a cloth saturated with ink;) the voter touches the ink pad with the stamp and then stumps the ballots. Let the ballots dry before folding. 4. After stamping his ballots and the ink has become dry, the voter then folds each ballot separately before leaving the booth; ho must fold them so that no one can see how he has voted, and so that the initials or first letters of the polls clerk’s name can be seen on the backs of the ballots; he then goes and gives the stamp back to the clerks and hands the two ballots to the inspector; then he leaves the room. 5. ' Alter the voter comes out of the booth into the room be must be careful uot *0 let any one see tbe inside ol bis bn'lots; if be exposes his ballot so that it can be knowu how he votes, his ballot will be rejected. 0. If the voter can not read Knglish or Is blind, or is physically tillable to stamp his ballots, he has a right to call on tbe poll clerks to stamp his ballots for bipi; this must be done in bis presence and in the presence of both poll clerks. 7. The voter must vote tho ballots given by tbe poll clerks and none other. 8. The voter must not put any mark or sign on his ballots; if ha does his vote will be counted. If by accident he blots his ballot, in stamping or makes a mistake, let him return the ballot folded to the poll clerks and get another. Heart Disease Curable. The truth of this statement may bo doubted by many, but wlteu Dr. Franklin Miles, tbe eminent Indiana specialist, claims that heart disease is curable and proves it by thousands of testimonials of wonderful uures by his New Heart Cure; it attracts the attention of the millions suffering with short breath, palpitation, irregular pulse, wind in stomach, pain in side or shoulder, smothering spells, fainting, dropsy, eto, A.

At Large, October 15, 1892. Mu. Edytur—Semes quere tliet the boys are gitiiu mad kause I hev bin filing a tew artikles for your paper. Those two fellers from Patoka are awfully worked lip. Yu know when the truth is told tha squirm like fiihwcrms. Let ’em squirm. Tha must take the medicine tha make, and in big doses. { bey bln perambulating a little since the last time, and 1 her cum to the konkluston tliet wo hev made a largo mistake in wurking in this kampane. Yu see when Chase wuz here he called on the boys to put up fer his spences in the kampane. All the boys hed to put up. Yu see Chase he holds a high hand iu the penshun business, and he made a gud many of us old boys knock down tu onct, and ef we had refused he wild nock us out. See! In tliet way it lies hurt us a gud deal as it took lots of money to pay the guvernoroff and hold him steady. With what he got we cud hev bought several votes. Yu know wo are great fellows on spending money in eleckshun times. When i wuz on the sentral kommitty we made the kandydates krack down pretty lively. En I herd as how the boys hed tu put up lively this yere. Some of them kicked a little, but the chairman sed thav must come down with the gelt—tliet’s muney. The “Old Chief” hex bin in a sweatfer sum time about certain matters which I will rite in the nere future. Yu see I uo more than the boys give me credit with, and I intend tu tell them. The “ring” In z hinted pretty strongly that if ever I kutu out fur oflis tha wud jest simply scalp me. Hut thel’s what tha do whenever our township lies a kandydate. I hev bin tu Jefferon township kaliiu on mi ole frends. I hev got a slew of them (liar. Gud workers iu our kause. They are real sly. 1 sene my ole co-wurkers Thomas J. Traylor and William Garrison. They are posen as wurkiti for the people’s party, but never vote it. Oil, no. Tliay are under instructions from the'“Old Chief” to git ez nieny democrats to vote tliet ticket ez possible and hev the republicans lo vote fer Harrison and the state ticket. Tliay never voted anything but a republican lickel and never will, but tliet is the game we are wurking on yu democrats tins yere. Then thare is Nimrod and Unklo Bill, tliay are wnrken the same thing but vole tlio^fepnblicau ticket. Tliay never fail. I Thomas told me he expected in fool a hole lot of dimmierats ititu voting the Weaver ticket this time. Us fellers hev bin telling the people as how Weaver is a gnd republikan, en is still laborun fer them tu beat Cleveland. None of us are going lo vole (or Weaver or any of the other kandydates. We just let on to catch the fule dimikrats by the game. Don’t you see ? Tliet crowd thinks they're prottv smart, but I think the boys will get outu them iu Ihe sun* by and by. I sene sum of mi fronds trum the south end and they told me as how a certain insurance agent from Petersburg hed bin down in those sexions elecksliuneering fur Bethel with all his power. I ulso herd sum things which como back from there tu, and I want tu say that tliay are lies of rlie wrankust kind. I wuz latkin tu sum of our boys Ibis a. iu. bout the leckshun and tliay thought Bethel wud git about 55 votes ni mi township. They wont miss it fur. Next weke I will give yer readers

But it’s out now and you are to blame for it.” Of bourse tbet wuz a stunner tu me, and I sed “I reckon.” Of course if a man makes a mistake a few hundred times it should be looked over. Aiut tlmt so boys? The boys no more about it than 1 du, cn they no how to flx up matters in general.

The most interesting and significant of the Tammany nominations for congress made Monday was that of General Daniel F. Sickles, the hero of Gettysburg, lie was nominated by acclamation by the Tammany organization of the Tenth Netv York District. This nomination sets at rest certain absurd reports that have been circulating in republican newspapers questioning the general’s loyalty to his party. In accepting the nomination General Sickles said: “I have several times in the past been urged to return to congress. but 1 have always refused. This time, however, I felt eouslralned by the circumstances to accept, because I saw in my nnmlnaton the opportunity to quiet once for all the misrepresentations of the republicans regaoijog my alleged opposition to Mr. Ch^^roid. They have studiously placed me in hostile towards the democratic Normal ticket, and have twisted all my utterances to suit their own purposes. In view of this I realize that only the strongest possible action could re.futetlieircontinued assertions, and! think I have token this action in accepting the nomination so kindly tendered me. I am like a »o dlcr I have enlisted, and now goto the front. “I never do anything by halves, and 1 will conduct my canvass on such dines as will convince the most skeptical that I am for Cleveland and Stevenson, first last and ali the time. I will give proof of my loyalty. There has been absolutely no excuse from the start for putting me In a false position toward the National democracy. It is true that 1 did not favor the nomination of Mr. Cleveland, but this'was simply on the ground of expediency. X considered that a man who had carried the state time alter t*me, as Mr. Hill has Uosre, would be absolutely certain to carry it again. lint pe’sonnlly I have the hlgliest regard for Mr. Cleveland, and during all the years I have known him our relations have always been of tire most pleasant character. “And since the nomination I think he has considerably strengthened his position. For Instance, lift letter of acceptance shows that he is not the enemy- of ttie obi soldier, as his enemies have sought to make him out. I regard that section in his letter referring to the services of the men who fought for the preservation of the Union as ah acceptance of the established policy of the Government to grant liberal pensions to t he men who are entitled to tbein. I think that his utterances should be accepted us a declaration to this Regarding his alleged utterances against Mr. Cleveland made at lire recent reunion of the Third Army Corps at Washlntion, Gen eral Sickles made the following explanation: ■*Anv statement that I oast reflection of any kind on Mr. Cleveland are as untrue us they are unauthorized. 1 made a campfire speech to my old comrades, and In the course of m.v remarks I offered resolutions of sympathy for Mrs. Harrison, who was very 111. I explained that if was due to this fact, to the sickness of his wife that the President was not on hand to welcome them to the White House in person, and I added ' hat he would, no .doubt, have been veiy happy to meet t hem, as he had always been a bravo soldier liimseir, a fact that I could testify to, as I had personally seen him lead his regiment against the enemy." “But somehow these random expressions were attributed to me. Unfortunately there were no reporter's present, and the story passing from mouth to mouth grew till it became a generally accepted fact that 1 was opposed to the election of Cleveland and Stevenson. Tilts Impression was carefully spread by the republican managers until 1 suppose many of my personal friends have come to believe In It. The cartoons that have been put out on the elevated railroad showing a picture of me and the words underneath. ‘No old soldier will vote for Cleveland,’ was only one method by which the enemy nought to put. me in a false light, presumably to Influence sorae of my old comrades in arms. Now t hat I have give r absolute proof of my loyalty to the democratic ticket, t hope that this sort of falsification wili he stopped. Through General Butterfield i seat word totlre republican national committee requesting that they refrain hereafter from libeling me, and 1 hope they will comply.”
