CHEEHIfttt WOK#*. A Lttur From am 014 SaUier •( the Lute W ur. Rockpuht, Ind , Oct. 12.1894. Mr. Editor:—Allow me space iu Jbe columns of vottr paper to explain some rery important facts, which I hope will prove to be of interest to £ll whom it may concern. 1 do not plaint to be an orator or a poet. I iam an old soldier and a republican served three years and over in jtlic latp war, and I claim that no man ^as a better right to the attention of jju* honest voters of our state than the old soldier. He served the country and saved it, and he is the ruling and controlling power of our government .today, and has hfeen ever since the declaration of our independence. And now,r my dear old comrades of the ^irst district, I call upon you to exercise those glorious privileges that you have sobiavely and honorably won for yourselves by tfu> faithful discharge of your duty in the late war. Now, it is our duty to go to the polls jttnd cast our votes independently and intelligently, regardless of party prejudice toward any man, especially to one that nas been our special friend in the Fifty-third congress, and that gentleman is Hon. Arthur H. Taylor,

who has done more f<>r the old soldier than any congressman ever has done. Now, I feel that it is our duty to stand by him in this election, and do all in our power that is houorable to return him again to congress. Mr. Taylor has an honorable and respectable gentlemen for his opponent, Mr James A. Hemenwav, of Warrick county. I have nothing to say against hint. Now, comrades, do not forget your prompt and faithful servant iu the Fifty-third congress, Arthur H. Taylor. , Sekg't. James Fleming, Co. E., 1st Regt. Ind Cav. Vols. P. S.—I should be pleased to correspond with old comrade-.—Rock port j Democrat. “I would rather trust that medicine than any doctor 1 know of,** says Mrs. Uaitie *Masou, of Chilton, Carter, Co., Mo., in speaking of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. For sale by J. R. Adams & Son, Petersburg, and K. Dillon, ptwell. o

There is no medicine so often needed in every home and so admirably adapted to the purpose for which it is intended, as Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. Hardly a week passes but some member of the family has need ot it. A toothache or headache may pe cured by it. A touch of rheumatism or neuralgia quieted The severe pain of a burn or scald promptly relieved and the sore healed in much less time than wheu medicine has to be sent lor. A sprain may be treated before inflammation sets in, yvhieh insures a cure* in about one-third of the time otherwise required. (Juts and .brumes should receive immediate treatpant before the parts become swollen, which .can only be done when Pain Balm )8 kept at hand. A sore throat may be cured beforjPit becomes serious A troublesome corn.may be removed by applying it twice a day for a week or two. A lame back may be cured and several days of valuable time saved or a pain in the side or chest relieved without paying a doctor bill. Procure a 50 cent bottle at once and you will never regret it.

Adams & Sou, Petersburg, and E Dilloiw ptwell. o “There is a salve for every wound.” We refer to I>e Witt’s Witch Hazel Salve, cures burns, bruises, cuts, indolent sores, as a local application in the nostrils it cures catarrh, and always cures piles R.

WITH INOIANA ORATORS. PttHy. PoHlMat Votato Made by Dnm* •ratio Speakers. If there is anything it this world that is settled forever it is that a high protective tariff for the purposes of protecting classes can never again prevail in America.—Charles L. Jewett. In all the great traits of character, in all the elements of manhood of the world’s famous people, our president is the greatest exponent of manhood in the world today.—John Gil Shanklin. If you will take the statutes of our state and canvass them as I have done yon will find that every law in existence todav upon the subject of labor was enacted by Democratic legislatures.— George W. Cooper., I have that confidence in the intelligence and justice of our people* that they will again confide the destiny of their state into the hands of a party that has been the party of progress and reform in Indiana and that has proven it can be trusted.—Claude Matthews. There is a useful and delightful destiny connected with the Democracy. The good angel of destiny has saved our party tlirough a hundred years. Our nartv has been saved that the masses of

oar people may prosper, and that the cause of the common people may triumph.—E. V. Brookshire. The Republican party in power is a pestilence. In Harrison’s administration there was one long, ceasoless riot in the expenditure of the people’s money. The treasury was looted and a “billiondollar cougross,” under the leadership of Thomas B. Reed, saddled upon a taxburdened land obligations which constituted a monumental infamy.—W. R. Myers. While the continued and enlarged use of silver as a money metal is demanded by every true bimetallist, it is in the interest of tariff reform and freer trade with all the commercial nations of the world that we should have a dollar, in substance and in fact, that will be accepted its such by all the people with whom we trade. Any other policy would be suicidal, and the bimetallist only cuts his throat with a silver knife. —State Senator R. F. Stuart. When the Pinkerton detectives, two years ago, invaded Pennsylvania under the employment of Carnegie & Frick to suppress tho demands of labor and shocked the conscience of the nation with their bloody deeds the workingmen of Indiana rejoioed that by reason of Democratic legislation the importation of foreign assassins to crush out their demands in their state was made impossible. Tho danger had been foreseen and long before forestalled.—Senator Kern. It somehow turns out this year that the mon whom our Populist friends have nominated for congress in this state are men who have Jill their lives held of floe, or all their lives have wanted to hold office, by the favor of one or the other of the old parties, and their fierce denunciation of their former friends is tainted by the suspicion that these candidates might still be under political bondage had the supply of offioes or promises held out.—Congressman Mcxfagny. Thus during the four years of the Harrison administration the diminution of the publio revenues reached the figure of $58,000,000. And here we have a comparison which teaahes a lesson: An increase of the revenues under a Democratic administration of $50,000,000 and a decrease under the administration of the Republican party of $38,000,000. Here is a showing of expenditures during the four years of Republican administration under Mr. Harrison: The first Sar,s $418,000,000; the second year, 55,000,000; the third year, $845,000,000, and the last year, $373,000,000. The surplus during the first year of the Harrison administration fell to $87,000,000; the third year to $17,000,000, and the last year “to $2,000,000.—Congressman Bynum. SAVkD TO PARENTS.

A Tut Reduction In the Cost or School Books. The most substantial reform enacted by the Democratic legislature of Indiana is the new school book law which broke the power of the American school bopk trust and placed the books used in the common schools of the state at a figure that is reasonable and just. The following is a comparative statement of the oost of books under the reign of the book trust with that of the new school book law. It speaks for itself: First Reader.... Second Reader-. Third Reader...... Fourth Reader. Fifth Reader.. Elementary Arithmetic Complete Arithmetic.... Elementary Geography. Complete Geography.... Spelling Books. Primary Physiologies... Intermediate Grammar Complete Grammar...... United States History...

History repeats itself. After one or two encounters with ex-Govemor Gray, when both were holding joint political discussions, Major Calkins found it convenient to fail in health. Mr. Owen succumbed after one engagement with his Democratic opponent, Mr. Myers, Merely a coincidence, of course. — Fort Wayne Journal. Just Getting a Taste. The Democratic boom is fairly on and will sweep the country in November. This may be thought an optimistic view now, but it will be verified. The people are just getting a taste of free trade and the prosperity which is already following. Revolutions never go backward. —Firankfort Crescent. Examination of Havemeyer. “Which do you regard as most favorable to the sugar trust, the McKinley law or the senate hill?” “I regard the McKinley law much better for the sugar trust, of course.” Hot a Homestead Tariff. We hear of no bloody massacres like that of Homestead as a result of the new tariff law.—Evansville Courier.
