< ulp. Ind., September bth,-82 Editor Republican:—\ iee,by reference to your notice in last week's isnue, that you bare a misconception of my meaning. In *y letter in tbe Sentinel I Lad two objects iu view: First, to exculpate the writer of the s4l article; and,second, to impress upon the minds of tax payers the awkwaro manner of Nichols doing business. I presume the S3O was paid by Nichols, but I presume it was paid on some other job of work, which in hisitemixed report should have so stated. Eldridge took the bridge at a stipulated amount, and to furnish all material, therefore his repor comes before the court in bad shape, viz: s4l for Superintending bridge. I had no intention to misrepresent •nythimg. Jobs G. Culp. Mr. Culp says that we are under a misconception as to what lie , meant in his letter in the Sentinel If Mr. Culp did not intend in that letter to lead people to believe that Nichols received s4l, when he received but $lO, then it is our opinion that he did not understand the meaning of the language he used. Culp says he had two objects in Writing his letter, one to '‘exculpate” “Tax Payer”, the other to impress upon the minds of tax payers the awkward manner of Nichol’s doing business. Now, John, don’t you know, fora fact, that you was very angry at Doc. because he would not let you have the contract to build that same bridge 2.-Ei for S4OO. tiias ferSOOO?

And are you not aware th«t he saved the county over SIOO by building the bridge .in the way he did instead of giving you the contract as you wished? And is it not true that throu h somebodj’s “awkward way in doing business’ three that were no braces mentioned in the orginal plans and specifications of that bridge furnished by the county Auditor, and that Nichols, with the consent of the parties had the same inserted? And you wish to call the attention of the tax payers to his “awkward” way! Yes, but by that same “way” over SIOO wap saved to the county, and you, John, are SIOO poorer, because you did not get the contract A speech like that of Capt. C. A. Edmonds at the Blue Ribbon meetin 4 last Saturday would be excusable at a democratic political gathering, but at a temperance meeting it was a good deal worse than in bad taste. The remarks in part consisted of an “out and out” anti-prohibition argument. The cases of Michigan, of which he may have some knowledge, and of Maine, of which he evidently has none, were cited as instances of the failure of prohibition. Of Kansas and lowa he was too discreet to speek. But this anti-prohibition speech a piece of mere special pleading, was the least of his offence. In the hope* probably, of getting in a little work for his party, he had the effrontery to assure his audience that the supremely adroit, but lying and in. famous peice of political chicanery, the amendments plank in the democratic State platform, gives to the people-squally with the Republican platform-assurance that the prohibition amendments will be submitted to the people. There is no dear and honest meaning in that plank of the democratic platform, unless, indeed, we except the declaration the democratic party is opposed to pro-hibition, and that though clear enough in expression, is an absolute falsehood in point of fact; for existsng party lines do not separate prohibitionists from the anti-prohibitionists. If Cadt. Edmonds hopes to promote the interests of his party by deluding people into believing in that plank, then let him go before the political meetings oi his parly, and not again outrag® common decency at the same time that he insults common sense, by attempting to do that kind of work at the temperance meeting.

PERSONAL LIBERTY IN POLITICS.

The safety of a State and Nation demand that personal liberty “to do evil as the sparks fly upward,” shall be grounded by a consideration for the rights of those who “do good and not evil,” and for their sakes be hedged by law. Man, endowed with reason and judgment in bis choice of action, readily yields to the restraints of law, and does not desire the freedom of a fish or bird. As a rule in social, religious and political progress the individual man can do more as a member of a party, sect or fraternity than when “going it alone”. The methods, ways and means of a party may not tally with a man’s sense of right, but a wise man looks beyond, and enquires whether the leading doctrines of the party tend to ultimate good, The following political postulates are pertinent to the campaign of 1882. ’ 1. Either the Democratic or Republican party will prevail anci give tone to legislative and administrative affairs. 2. —The only way to judge of future partizan action, is in the light of the party’s past history. 3. —The voter who opposes th.

Democratic and yet Votes that ticket, is either non-compob or void of political integrity. 4. —The voter who favors the Republican platform, and refuses to vote that ticket, is an anomaly. 5. will and pleasure of the party controls and ■ conforms that of the individual voter after uleotion. Any other pretense before election by a candidate is practiced to deceive. 6. —ls a majority of the next legislature are Democrats the pending amendments will be strangled in caucus. 7. If a majority of the legislators are Republicans, the pending amendments will be submitted to a popular vote. 8. The Democratic candidate for legislator who personally favors submission, will change his views in pariy caucus. This change is sure to follow after election. The party lines in this State are drawn on the questiop of submission; and any candidate who appears across the line, and not in the uniform of his party, may be regarded as a spy. •

The Democratic party, as a party, opposes all amendments to the State or National Charter, and have for fifty years bitterly fought against change. A Democrat who runs for office, as a democrat, and yet pretends to favor the submission of the amendments, is merely a vote hunter. A score of years ago the renouned “X roads, P. M.,“ spoke of the Democratic Party as “Slavery at the bottom. Stink in the middle, and whiskey on top.” The party was pro-slavery even beyond the “last-ditch,” and now worships st the shrine of that “lost cause.” As an advocate of secession and the line, the party ran very low, and now seeks to crawl along depravities pitas a pro whiskey party. A pretended republican and loud temperance advocate electioneering for the success of a democrat candidate, is a dough-face, and is either weak or lacks probity.

The personal history of each man on the republican ticket may not show life-long sobriety, but the ticket representstemperenoe sentiment, aud favQj submit-, sion should vote it streight. The democrats demand a party cdntest over the question, and true to their instincts take the pro-whisky side; while the Republicans ask that tin matter be decided in a non-partizar way. A man who has a desire b see the question tested by a fair vote, can be a consistent republics! eventhough against the adoptioi of the amendments; bur how can. fair minded man, who favors letting the people rule, vote with the de mocracy? Look out for “wolves in - sheeps’ clothing.” Principles and not tin “honeyed phrases” of office seel* ers should control our actions. The seed is being now sown—the people have an opinion—and what shall the Aovemi er harvest be?
