In order to place The Democrat in every home in Pike county during the coming campaign we have decided to make an exceedingly liberal offer for new subscribers. The paper will be s'ent from now until the first of January, 1895, for fifty cents. Each subscription must be accompanied by the cash. No name will be placed on the books where the money, does not accompany the order. Any postmaster will receive your subscription and 6eud the same to ns. This low price for the largest paper in 'pike county should secure us a thousanu new subscribers during the next thirty days. The campaign is coming on and the people of Piko county ohotild bo informed as to what is going on in the county and to then vote for their best interests. No other paper in the county will give you the figures and facts as they exist at the present time. Friends of this paper should speak a good word to their neighbors and get them to send for The Democrat at ouce. Have them send for a sample copy or let them have yours. Fifty cents from now until January first. John W. Paris, the man who wrecked the Cfteeutown bank, was given a seutence of six years for obtaining money under false pretenses, at Frankfort *last Friday. Parson Chase; the ex-governor of Indiana, is also implicated in the same job aud will have his trial at Kokomo in September. It will be remembered that the parson spoke iu this county during the campaign of 1892, aud grew very warm over some charges that had been made against him. A little later on the parson engaged in banking and is now under bond for his appearance at court. He operated with Zimri Dwiggins, the Chicago banker, who started several banks in Indiana, and all collapsed about the same time last year. The parson should be brought to trial without auy further postponements. ^

The reed'd of the decision of the supreme court of the United States in the tax case will soon be judicially knowu to all the counties iu which suits were brought by railroad comi panics to enjoin county treasurers from collecting jjutes under the law • of 1891. Attorney-General Smith said that every railroad delinquent would be required to pay at once. (‘Everybody who owes anything has g6t to walk up to the captain and Bay,-’ said he. Under the decision of tfje suprem court the road delinquent pust pay a penalty of }ti per ceut. The Attorney-General says about $350,000 will be collected from the delinquent railroads on accouut of penalties. Persons sending communications to this office will please sign their names to them. We will no! publish them unless this requirement is fulfilled. We have been the recipient of several during the past tew weeks from various parts of the county on various topics concerning Pike poo Mi politics, but which we have itot published on this account. The columns «*l this paper are always ppen tor discussion of any subject £nd are now ready to receive them.

USE PEACEFUL METHODS The following is from the’St. Louis Republic and is well to the point, and might be heeded in all strikes: “Officers of th* American Railway Unions promised that the strike would be free from lawlessness of any kind. The order wilt have cause, for regret that the promises are so soon broken by the seizure of trains and interference with the rights of travelers and shippers. “As long as any body of Americans confine themselves to their >ight of working when aud for whom they please, not eveu those who suffer from their action can justly do more than discuss the wisdom of their course. When they interfere wjth other rights the sufferers can appeal to the law aiid deipand its strict enforcement. “The president of the Railway Unions says that this strike is a contest between the producing classes aud .the money power. Few will agree with him. There does not seem to be any contest at all between railway employes and railway managements. There is a dispute between a car-building company and its workmen- Between that company and the railroad companies there is little sympathy. The railroads would be well ehough pleased if the Pullman Company could be dislodged from its mouopoly. Since most ol the roads have no sleeping cars except Pullmans they must carry Pullmans or do without sleeping accommodations tor their passengers. * “There is distress in the town ot Pullman. Meu have been poorly paid of late and have not had regular ^employment. The Pullman Company may havp oppressed its employes. The public does regard that corporation as too liberal to take advantage of any circumstance for its own profit. But if the American Railway Union has undertaken to produce good wages and steady employment inj every ear-building shop, every rolling mill,every coal mine,every factory and every farm that furnishes material to, a railroad company or ships commodities over a line, it has grappled with more than the Czar of Russia could accomplish in St. Petersburg. “This is a test ot strength between the American Railway Union and the roads. The union has the right to make the test. The roads have the right to resist. There is in .it no contest between labor and capital, or betweeu producing classes and the money power. Producing aud allied classes are the chief sufferers from the stoppage ot transportation. The money power will draw juterest on its bonds just the same. “The test of strength is on, Whichever side wins, let it be said, if possible, that the law is supreme and property rights safe from all unnecessary injuiv.”

SAip a farmer the other day. “I think the cduuty should put a stop to the town of Petersburg from using the county bastile as a\ calaboose for their vags and drunks. They make us fellers pay to keep up their town.” That’s just about the size of it. Prisoners are put in the county jail by the town’s afficers and the county pay for it. The town dads should build a calaboose. IIow quick some parties are ready to drop a question when they realize that they have got the hot end of it. There are several questions that will come up in the J*ike county campaign that the boys will be rpady to drop at the first stage ot tfie game. That’s a sure thiug. but the people will see that they stand up to the trough and drink whether it tastes good or not.

Republican* newspapers of Indiana are maintaining a digntied silence on the supreme court decision on the new tax law. Every republican editor in the state, save one exception, pronounced the law “infamous,” and yet the highest, court iu £the land reverses the opinion of these nin-compoops. ....■■■—. The democratic county central committee meets at Winslow to-mor-row, at which tiate a date will prob ably be named for the nomination of county candidates, and for the transaction of such other business as may come before that body. Every member should be present on that day. The Duke of Pullman should rei duce the dividends he pays his stock1 holders, and not the wages he pays h^8 employes. As for reducing the price of births, that is not to be considered as a part of the Pullman policy of “the public be damned.” Thu racket still continues in certain republican quarters. The gag rule will not always work with some men. Oh no, they are not built that wmy. / :

THE CH.4PPEL CASE. Me is PemilM te u* Os Hie Own HMSfniseece. Deputy United States Marshal T. J. Groves arrived Friday night from Pikeville, Pike county, with Henry Cheapen, who was arrested on the charge of violating the postal laws. He was formerly poet master at Pikeville and while in that position, it is I alleged that he made false reports, in which be showed a much larger cancellation of stamps than the business would warrant. At the time when ! the irregularity is said to have been ; made, the salaries of the postmaster in small towns were regulated according* to the amoaut of business done in the office. H. B, Broad well, formerly deputy postmaster of Yelpen, was a witness, as was also Deacon G. B. Campbell, the present postmaster" of Pikeville, who appeared with his cancellation record, so that the business of the postoffiee tor this year could be compared with that of the year previous, when Chappell was in the postoffice. On accouut of the absence of Postoffice Inspector W. J. Vickery, the government was compelled to postpone the examination <^f its witnesses. United btates Commissioner Wart man continued the case nntil July 9, and the prisouer was placed under a bond of $200. ^Chappell is a j married man and has a family ot six j children. He is a cripple and is tillable to do any work, aud, was permittee to go on his own recognizance. —Evansville Courier.

It had been weaned at tour months old and being sickly everything ran through it like water through a sieve. I gave it the usual treatment in such cases but without benefit. The child kept growing thinner and thinner until it weighed but little more than when born, or perhaps ten pounds. I then started tne father to give Chamberlain’s .Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy. Before one bottle of the 25 cent size had been used, a marked jjuprovement was saen and *its continued use cured the child Its weakness and puny constitution disappeared and its father and myself believe the child’s life was saved by this remedy; J.T Marlow, M.
