Senator Voorhees pledged Cleveland to free coinage in the last campaign. How is it now, old political blowhard. Won't some one that has the money to spare, pay the Tribune its price, so it can stop its tirade against the use of silver as money. The Rossville Journal says the "drummer is a commercial superfluity, a barnacle, and must be scraped, he is too costly," and the people said, “amen.” Cleveland is working hard to have the Sherman silver law repealed, and old John Sherman is helping him with all his might. How beautifully those old frauds dovetail into each other. The thinnest argument we have yet seen why the public printing should not be given to the lowest bidder appeared in the Republican last week. A ten-year old school boy could do better. Try again, Bro. Marshall. Indiana lawyer politicians got up a bill especially for their interest and worked it through both houses, but Governor Matthews righteously vetoed it. It is a good day for the people when lawyer politicians get knocked out. Tally one for our governor.

We are glad to see that able and fearless champion of the people's rights, the American Nonconformist; placed on a solid financial basis. Now, boys, let us roll up our sleeves and go to work and never stop till the Non Con is the house of every man in Indiana that is worthy of political salvation. Eieht years ago, Cleveland rent his duds and bewailed the land for the immediate calamities that would befall it if the Bland-Allison act was not repealed. It wasn’t repealed nor did the predicted evils come. Notwithstanding that false alarm, he is now yelling louder than ever and all at the bidding of Wall Street. A correspondent of the Rossville Journal, says the Farmers’ Institute of Clinton county was given a wide berth by the farmers of that county. That farmers regard them as first class humbugs. Whenever those who have the management of these Institutes learn that distribution and not production is before the house then they can be made profitable.
