Ex-Gorohov Hendrick* baa ao repeatedly and w eiuphartcaCeO-werted that he will not attain aeeepf the second place on the Democratic presidential ticket that we begin to believe him, though hfc veracity has always been somewhat qikwtto liable. • ■ The Indiana polb .lourual Is antagonizing Colonel the people’s candidate for governor, should the Colonel be nominated, which now •re-ms highly probable, the State organ ran devote a few weeks to invoking Ha stock of influence. It to very evident that Poole Jimmy's'legs are too short to ride a Greenback and a Democratic nag a! the same Ume in this political race. Furthermore there to 100 mneh slack in the seat of hto breeches, and Jimmy would cut a sorry figure. in lights. The leading Democrats of Jasper county have long been dtogwted *kh the old fossil who so imsjjroemfully manage* their party organ, and talk Of dusting the stark in the seat of his breeches if li, continues to follow the dictates of a few renegade Republicans. Tlie New Albany Ledger-Standard. a Democratic Journal, say*, “It seems that some of lhe alleged Democratic papers of the State think more of old broken down. Greenback, independent. radical hacks in the shape of politicians than they do of the great Democratic party." That strikes Unde Jimmy. Voters should hear in mind that the constitutional amendment No. I. recently adopted, requiring a residence in the township sixty days ami in the ward or preetnet thirty day*, by an act «f the last tegtotature. to now in force, and should Iw carried out at all munciple elections which are to take place on the 3d and 4th of May. . Jimmy say*-Bitier* may presume to be smarter than people of this locality, but be really to not." We lay no claim to great intelligence, but every reader of the Democratic Sentinel will bear testimony that Jimmy is incapable of conducting a party organ, and if be win place one of hto earn tothe ground he will hear the rumbling of Democratic curses jnlngled with hto name. The Reitblicas may say some hard things about the average Greenbaeker wbo deserted hto former political associates became they failed to appreciate hto abilities frn office, big it has a respect for a sqttaie-loed citizen wbo to not constantly nosing around for position. We can endure manly opposition «ith a good grace, but I warm deliver us from a chronic politician “who runs with the hare and barks with the bounds. *

The publisher of tlial political hermaphrodite* the Democratic Sentinel, is wrifleing hb manhood (if he ever had anyX his party principles (If he ever had anyX his srlf-respect (If he ever had any' and the pood trill of his neighbor* through a tain hope of mUuritng aitfe the Greenbarkens in the capture of a county office, that he may share In the spoils. But it Is ail a delusion, a chimera of a muddled brain. A great majority of the Republican Greenbnekct* who have for some time acted ■with the mongrel party, have determined they will no longer support an organization devoid of principle, wlttrno higher atm than to get office. Judge D. 11. Moore, of Napoleon. Aik., an exConfederate soldier and a Southern Democrat, who has heretofore worked exclusively within the lines of the Bourbon party, declare* his intention* through the columns of the Inter Ocean to support Grant for the presidency because the Democratic party North b no longer worthy of Southern mnfidence. He say*. ••WithGrant we believe sfc can carry Virginia, North ana Botith Carolina, Florida. Louisiana, and Mississippi, while Arkansas^ 1 Tennessee, and Alabama may be safely put down as doubtful State*. It b very evident that Grant would receive more Southern votes than any other Republican candidate.

The colored refugees ht Putman county, this Slate, are doing excellent missionary work among the Democrats in that section. The Journal says “Some of them have hired to Democratic farmers, and the accounts they give of their treatment in the South are having a visible effect. The strong and simple iterative* which they relate of Southern persecution*, and the letter* which they receive. are opening (lie minds of Democrats to the fact that they have been deceived and mbied in regard to the condition of things in tbe South, and are gradually preparing them to welcome the ' gospel of political truth. Thus these fugitives from Democratic-injustice in Hie South may. by a beautiful dispensation of Providence, become a means •ts illuminating the Democratic dark places of the North." The gulf stream, which washes our own shores with such good results to fishes and fishermen, bows hence from our northern coasts to mitigate the rigor of chill wind* that Mow down from the frozen seas of the north of Europe towards the British Wes. Home smart Yankee has discovered that we have only to eliange the course of the gulf stream after It leaves our coast to enable us to freeze our English cousins out. To alter the direction of thi* venerable aad highly respected current we hare only to tamper with the moon and “fix" the Mm up there to modify ids Influence on the tides: and In a coentry where the art of consulting the Interests of those in power b perfect, the work of corruption la the locality referred to should not be attended wtth any dbcouragißg difficulties. A* a new administration of affairs b about to be Inaugurated In England it would be well for ore State department to notify Mr. Gladstone that In the event of tunable between his country ana ihb we shall fight him with the weather, kfil all the crops and starve the J. B s into submission.

We punctured the rhinoceros hide of the Democratic Sentinel, but week, by the remark that the Green backers "have obtained control of the Democratic organ.” The editor (who ever he b) switches hfa iterative and snorts oof : "The Independent manhood of true Democrats and true ‘Nationals wfD assert its superiority over (be device* and tactles of the common enemy.” What an aheurd statement. There b no manhood in Democrats and Nationals who In colluding sacrifice party principles for poaitiou and the spoib of office. It b a system of party warfare that is considered disgraceful by every parry patriot tn the land, and history rtwuld class such political pirate* with trait on and rebels. We repeat that the voter who barters hfe principles tot posit ion has no manhood, and should be known and recognized as a freebooter. The "common enemy” of Democracy b loyalty. Christian principle*, the good of the whole people, “without regard to color or previous condition of servitude,” fair election*, free speech and the freedom of the preaa The unprincipled manner in which the Sentinel * pandering to the Green backers dints the contempt of old line Democrats and the Indignation of every honest politician. There are honorable men tn «g p*ffiical orgaatzatioas supporting certain party maasoras through personal eoovictioae, who dbpise such exhibitions at tobtoreas.principle* and therefore are occasionally found Bewnoaemg American politics as a delusion and a fraud, and through fear of tupporOng some diabolical scheme frequently refute to exetebe the right of Iraadibc.

He always takes the rear seat in the oar, sits with his back to the pas* sengers.chews his tobacco solemnly and makes a target of the wood* box, while he shows a strong disinclination to talk politics.->-Bar* lington Hswkeye. —r A large number of whites have and arc coming Into Indiana, and among the rest are Gov. Black* burn’s pardoned penitentiary birds. Thera are already mere voters of this elaas than of negro exodus tern. Yet the demagogues raise no howl about them. When it is an honest, hard working class, then there is “no room,” but thieving, murderous whites that vote the Democratic ticket are ever welcome. Such is Democracy.—Fowler Era.

The bravest man in Indiana lives near Hartford, this State. His name is Austin Dollar, and one day last week he took his life in his hands, as it were, and presented a piatol at the head of his mother-in-law and threatened to seatter her brains to the four winds if she did’t immediately pack her traps and get from ander the roof of his domicil. The ride of the“ Six Hundred” into the jaws of doath was a very tame piece of business oompared with Mr. Dollar’s conduct on the occasion mentioned.—Wabash Courier.

Last week there was filed in the Recorder’s office what is perhaps the heaviest lien ever given in Carroll county. It is a deed of trust given by the Chicago, and Indianapolis Air Line Railroad Co., to the Central Tract Company of New York, in which the former pledges entire property, rights and franchises now owned or hereafter to be acquired to secure the papment of bonds to the amount of $1,800,000, which will fall due iu the year 1910, or thirty years hence. The money thus secured is to be used in completing and equipping the line between the two terminal points.— Delphi Times.

Simon P. Thompson, the most prominent person whose name is mentioned in connection with the office of Congressman on the Republican ticket in tbia District, is in town this week attending to legal business. Simon is thoroughly Republican in the broadest and best sense of the word. Genial and easily approached, with that rare quality—strong common sense, combined with legal and literary attainments of a high order, together with enterprise and industry that would shirk no duty however onerous—we know of no man in his party who would fill the office to which he aspires with more credit to himself or advantage to his couetitueuts.—People’s Press.

Oar Washington specials report that the feeling in favor of a national bankrupt law is growing in Congress, and that a strong pressure for its enactment is being bronght to bear. It is the only means by which an uniform bankruptcy system can be established, and seems also the only one under which the rights of non resident creditors have ever secured fair protection.’ The bill introduced by Mr. Conkling in the Senate, and which, it is understood, was drafted by Judge Loring, of the United States District Coart for Massachusetts, will doubtless be made the basis of.legislation upon the subject, and the indicationspoint to its enaclmeut, with some modifications, before adjournment.—lnter Ocean. ,

Even an anti-Sherman paper, the Inter Ocean, one of Grant's strongest advocates, has this to say: ''Secretary Sherman electioneers by reducing the national debt $10,000,000 per month, and its by no means a bad recommendation.”—Leavenworth (Kan.) Times. The Inter Ocean, although "one of Grant’s strongest advocates,” can not close its eyes tothe truth, that John Sherman stands among the foremost men in the ranks of the Republican party. In the darkest hour of our history he was ooe of the great leaders upon whose judgment the loyal people leaned, and were never disappointed.— While we have honestly differed from him in some of hia- financial measfires, and hare not advocated Lis claims for the nomination, yet, we, in common with the masses of the Republican party, have never ceased to remember the debt of obligation the nation is under to men like John Sherman.—lnter Ocean.

On ’Change we have the bulls and bears; in polites of the present canvass we have the'Mfs and buts.” We learn that Groesbeck will accept "if Tilden pulls out of the raee.” Jewett says "if,” and still a third Ohio man, Thurman, and a fourth, Payne, says, "If I will unit* the party I am at their service.” Then comes the Illinois statesmen, Palmer And Davis, and, aa we move eastward. Bayard and Hancock are all candidates "if” they should hear even a small voice calling. Every one would answer, "Here am I, take me." But Uucle Samuel aits back and smiles at the boys without an “if" He does not know the meaning of the word. The "buts” are the Republicans, and they have pitched their gauntlets in the ring They “if” at nothing, and "but” at everything that stands in their way. The friends of each stand like enraged rams, surveying the green fields and tba feeding flocks. It will be well if tbe "bits’* are a little more playftii;. time will come for.this amusement after the 3d of Jnne, and plenty of it.—lntor Ocean.

From Kansas City, Mo., Times,Dem. —lt was a large and intelligent audi ence that greeted Schuyler Colfax at the Secoud Presbyterian Church, last evening, to hear him lecture upon "The Life and Character of Abraham Lincoln.” One rarjly sees an assembly of hearers, all of whom seemed so interested and attracted, and gave such undivided attention to the speaker. Mr. Colfax was introduced by Mr. John Doggett and the audience responded 10 bis bow with loud applause His manner of address, so pleasant and free, seemed to captivate bis hearers at once. He began his address by touching upon the humble birth of Mr. Lincoln, and passed rapidly over his earlv life, barely mentioning bis rise and sucoess to the time of his election to the Presidential chair. His remarks were replete with interest, humor, pathos, and admirable sent! merits. Tbe entire lecture was au ex cellent delineation of the life and character of the man who had “mal ice toward none, but charity for all.” The lecture was given under the aobpjees of the T. M. C.IA., and it is safe to say that all present were highly entertained and pleased with Mr. Colfax as a gentleman and orator. From Bt. Paul, Minn., Anti-Monop-olist.—Ex-Vice President Colfax delivered three leoturei last #eek, in this State, as follows: at Austin, Rochester and Lake City. He wqs well received at all those places, havingA larger house at the latter place than any speaker that ever visited the city. His lecture is entirely devoid of pot-. itics, the subject being the “Life And Character of Abraham Liocoiu.* From the Bt. Louis, Mo., Democrat: As a whole the lecture was a most remakhble one, worthy of the fame of • the man to whose memory U was de voted.

ADMISSION: - - 50. RaservedSsatTicketsatTßADEPAUiCE!

From Christian at Work.—Our former Vice President, Mr. Colfax, delivered an eloquent, unique and rousing lecture to a large audience at Brooklyn, last Saturday night, the stormiest night of the season. His theme was “Abraham Lincoln.” Mr. Colfax for four years was in Mr. Lincoln's most intimate confidence. The lecture is not a bash ol ole stories, but a new revelation. It is the heart aud home of Abraham Lincoln turned in* side out. The lecture is worth fifty ordinary lyceum lectures. It ought to be heard in every hall, church, town and city of the oountry. From Springfield, Mass., Ropubliv can.—Schuyler Colfax, in his lecture upon Aoiaham Lincoln, at the City Hall, last night, met a notably cordial welcome. Springfield gave him a substantial responsive audience, noticeable for its diversified, respectable character. The lecture was, of course, in the highest degree an Intimate, appreciative review, full of intelligent discernment of the character, life and labors of President Linooln, brim* ming over with those famous “stories.” Many people pressed forward to greet Mr. Colfax after his talk; and the succeeding Odd Fellows’ reception at their hall was an enthusiastic compliment to their distinguished brother, as the rooms were completely filled by the members of the order and their invited friends. Frpm Burlington, la* Gazette, Dem: Mr. Colfax’s lecture wae a magnificent one, and listened to most attentively by his auditory. It was such a lecture as every school boy In the country ahoold hem:—one that would cause the youth to revere and emulate the virtues of Abraham Linooln. The speaker’s words recall many sad images or the war to dvery heart—but through all, the central figure was that plain, blunt man whose tender hcartednees shone out In every aot— The lecturer wae frequently interrupted by applause.
