Out of the sixteen prominent Irish Catholic Journals in the United States, eleven are earnestly supporting Blaine and logan; two refuse to support Cleveland and Hendricks, and give the Republican ticket a -quasi support, and only three support the Democratic ticket.

There is no longer room for a reasonable doubt but. that Grover Cleveland is a selfish libertine and debauchee of the grossest and beastliest description. What course his party managers will take in the premises yet remains to be seen, but we believe that they will soon be forced to reraovp him from their ticket; but should they persist in retaining him as their candidate, w 6 doubt not but that the decent, virtue loving democrats of the country will repudiate him in such vast numbers that his defeat will be more universal and overwhelming than any candidate of his party has ever sustained.

Last week some of the democratic papers of this district sent out a supplement containing what was alleged to be the speech Thomas J. <x>d made at Rensselaer, upon accepting the nomination for Congressman. The speech as printed is a labored document, full of long tables and dull arguments, and bears little resemblance, indeed, to the demagogic, ungrammatical and §elf laudatory harangue the honorable Thomas really delivered in the Rensselaer Opera House, on tire occasion above referred to. An abler and wiser hand than his has evidently 7 Been at work upon it and pruned it of its most glaring egoisms and corrected his faulty grammar. Of such sentences as the ones given below, and in which his original speech abounded, we find but few in the revised speech. We quote Mr. Wood’s exact language: *‘l made a speech on the tariff question which I suppose you have all read.” “I made a reputation on the tariff question in the last Congress that extended far outside of my vwu district.”

The Democratic county convention is called for next Saturday, at the court house. It will be quite contrary to established demociatic policy to nominate a ticket before the Republicans nominate theirs, and no one need be greatly surprised should they find some pretext for adjourning their contention until after the Republic an primary election.

The democratic papers of the East are publishing the statement Ohio not one is for Blaine and that of the seventeen German papers of Logan. The Toledo Blade, corrects this palpable falsehood and gives the nanw±jgf_ thirteen German papers of Ohio that are giving a hearty support to BlaineThe Blade’s article concludes with these words: Ibis gives thirteen German papers supporting Blaine. Not' ofc German Republican paper has refused to support him, and theToledo Express supports the Republican ticket for the first time in several year's. The German, Republicans are all in line, active and full of enthusiasm.”

Before and during the war Harper’s Weekly maligned and insult_ed_Abraham Lincoln and his administration as bitterly and as wickedly as it now maligns and insults Mr. Blaine. Even as late as 1863 it published some of the most brutal and libelous cartoons of himself and members of his cabinet, and it was only -when it became certain that the Union cause would succeed that it, at last, gave a reluctant support to that side. Its present course against Blaine is fully as base as its war record. The cause for its enmity has just been clearly explained: About the time that Mr. Blaine was preparing to publish his history, 3. W. Harper, the head of the house of Harper & Brothers, wrote ft letter to a near friend of Blaine’s full of the most fulsome compliments to the latter, and solicting the job of publishing his book; Mr. Blaine looked elsewhere for a publisher and since that day Harper’s Weekly has JyeenJhis unrelenting enemy.'

The Primary Election.

One week from the date of the issue of this paper the republicans of Jasper county will nominate a county ticket by the method of a primary election. This form of making, the nominations was adopted by the central committee, after full and earnest discussion, in accordance with what was thought to be the most general wish of the republicans of the county. The method is not wholly free from objections, nor could any be-selected that is so, but, on the whole, we believe that it is as satisfactory as any other, at least, and if the republicans of the county will generallv attend, with the resolution to do all in their power to make a good ticket, and secure harmonious action, the primary election will prove'to have been the best means that could have been chosen for making the nominations. The manner and form of conducting tlie primary election has been prescribed by the central committee, and in accordance with the demands of the strictest justice to both candidates and people: and at the same time giving full consideration do the - interests of the party and the convenience of the voteis. The ballots to be used are to be furnished by the central committee, and will contain the names of all known candidates, also blank spaces for writing in other names, and certain - instructions the central committee thought advisable to adopt. The ballots will be exact copies of the form herewith given:
