The country wants Reform, but' not after the Democratic pattern. Monday’s e] fiction in Lafayette was a clean sweep for the Republicans. mmmmtmmmmmmKwttmmmtmnm Hon. S. r.

Mr. Thompson will rote for whom he: thinks is the best man before the convention, There is some talk of nominating Simon for t ’engross. — [Fowler Era. * Morrison’s horizontal redaction tariff bill was disposed"of last Tuesday bv a vote to strike oht -the «nacting clause. Three Republicans voted for the' bill, and forty,>ue Democrats voted against it. The total vote was 159 to 14)5. The country is much to be congratulated on the final squelching of this ill- advised and revolutionary scheme. • ■*-•*=«» am «■*■■«"»■■■» i ibib in ■•■wi Sensible democrats have nothing to say in regard to last Monday’s election. The blow-hards claim a great Democratic victory—because of the alleged great reduction in the republican majorities!!! And -here is whore those “Great Rcuuc.ions” come in: Mot counting the vote on Marshal, for both the candidates are republicans, the average republican majority, this year, was/fifty-two, Two years ago, which, was the last time the democrats put up a town ticket, the republican majority was :Tty-one. An actual gain of one. •md a loss-, in proportion to the .v, hol4 number <3f- votes cast,' of gist six votes. “'What are they among so many ?” If that is a democratic victory, • make the most of it.”

The National Convention meets •!due iKi, 1884. Simon P. Thompson was, on the 10th day or April, selgcted, as. a..delegate, Tin* 90 members of the Oohvention at Logansport, after the selection, voted 48 for Blaine and 42 for all -thefs. This vote was not recorded s an instruction.

A Republican Victory.

Tlic Result of The Town Election. - r.' m-g-.,■ The Democrats of Rensselaer held a convention Saturday evemug and ratified the previous decision of their state m akers. William Meyers was nominated for trustee in the First district, and 0. D. Nowels for the Second, John 0. Chilcote fpr Clerk and jerry Healey for Treasurer. .No nomination was made for Marshal. individually their ticket was unobjectionable anil so far as they made any nominations, the result Ijg Monday may be taken as a pretty fair expression of the relative strength of the two parties, although it is a fact generally acknowledged'to be true that many more Republicans voted for democrats from motives of personal friendship than there were democrats voted 'for v republicaMZlQ£Zail like reason. The, vote for Town Marshal resulted in *the election of Chas. Platt, ■ who run, professedly as only Ticket upon which his name was printed being headed publican Ticket” and was an exact copy of the republican ticket, except that his name was substituted for that of Mr. Clark, for Marshal. The following is the. vote in detail : Trustee- Ist District. Vanatta,’ Rep. ... 159' Meyer, Dem 108 Maj 51 Trustee —2nd District “ Ferguson, Rep 100 Nowels, l>em .99 Maj • 07 Clerk.

“In my Mind’s Eye, Horatio.”

•Borne of the Democratic windbags about the town are blowing largely of their great success in reducing the Republican majorities in Uensseiaer, at last Monday’s election. In the characteristic language of one tlie most prominent of them; “We have cut down tire majorities of every G —-d one as them” [the Republican candidates,! .“from 23 to 30.” They osLvnuily claim that the r.noroi;•riONA'TE majority of the Republicans is greatly reduced from what it lias been heretofore. There is no shadow of truth in the claim, and we propose to give a few. figures, to justify our statement.! I Fast year the Democrats made no nominations for town otiicers. !In 1882 they nominated a full ; ticket; In 1882 the total vote for . | trust* Adh' the Ist ward was 281. [v •pn ilman majority was This year; the total vote for trustee t„n t'ho sit me ward Was‘26;, card the :ri pulilmah maj n'lty was 01. Tins, gives an actual increase of the re,:ul dean majority of 12, -and a proportionate increase-of 6. Trustee for the 2nd ward: Total j vote, 1882,' 228, republican major*(ity 58. Total vote, ifeSi, 263, Rehpubiivan majority, “67; actual ; Republican gain, 8. In proportion to the whole-number of votes cast, ] the- majority is exactly the same as two years ago. The average republican majority ;in 1882,Ava& 31, In 1884, it is 52, !an actual gain of one,-,and a pro- ! povtionAfe loss of six. ’ The only actual reduction made iii the Republican majorities, were 16 on Clerk, and 1 on Treasurer. We, of course, have not taken | the vote on town marshal into I cousjdeiatios at all, aa no one will

be more prompt than Mr. Platt himself ip deny that the vote he received shduld be taken as any indication of the strength of the Democratic vote of the town. He is a Republican, and has never claimed to be any thing else.

Secretaru pf State.

State Senator Jacob Reiser, of Pulaski county, is a candidate for the Republican nomination for Secretary of State. He was born in Pennsylvania, of German parents, and at an early age came West, locating in this State iu 1859. lie learned the printer’s trade, and a few years ago became the owner of the Winawac Republican, which, under his "management, became a power for the Repnblicaif party in Northern Indiana. At out of the war he was •• one of the first to respond to the 'Call of President Lincoln for “three hundred hfpn,” and soon arose from the Wanks to a first lieutenancy; Tjpe ifar over, he retired to Pulaski county, and in, 1880 ho was nominated for State Senator' to represent- thp counties of Wbite, Carroll anil J|ula|3ki, a Democratic district. He made a thorough and brilliant _/or||y ass: and notwithstanding' the largo Democratic majority in district, was elected. His record as a Senator is creditable to himself and an honor to Iris comiituents. Senator Reiser lmF always been a staunch Republican and- is popular alike frith Germans’ and all chisses“ oh people. Me-jis a good stumper, anil if nominated will make a splendid canvass .—[Vernon Danner.

Hard on Old Dave.

Those two windy old worthies, Daye Turpie and Bayless Hanna, lately received the following more truthful than complimentary “setting out” in the Chicago News: “tV’e have not yet decided who was the star orator at the Iroquois banquet. The honor lies, we think, between old Boyless Hanna and old Dave Turpie. Both of these venerable barnacles are typical lndianians, and we can conceive no more horrifying situation than to have them both turned loose upon an assemblage of unsuspecting human beings. Old Turpie is an especially vociferous talker. He is one of the ranting, loquacious vendors of oratorical platitudes and boisterous retailers of old political chestnuts frequently mentioned by -crossroad weekly papers as “old men eloquSfft.” He talks as if He were talking in the face of a fierce wind, and Ills gestures ax*e those of an unskilled butcher ripping up the carcass of a beef. Hanna puts his platitudes f at ypu in tin impressive mid solemn way’ but Turpie hurls them around loose, and throws them light and left as if he were at work in a howling alley instead of a /comparatively smallroom. iitipi’cases you us a man who has .always been in the habit of addreHifig v atch meetiugs, whiie. Turpie’s is that Liml of eloquence some of us are in the habit of hairing from the waiter who sails down the main aisle or a cheap restaurant shoaling 'corned beef and cabbage for one.” , y /
