REPUBLICAN TICKET.
FOR PRESIDENT. JAMES G. BLAINE, of Maine. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT. JOHN A. LOGAN, of Illinois.
Did you hear the news from Maine? The Hon. - XV. H. Calkins will speak at Goodland, on Sept. 24th, .•at 2 o’clock p. m. Senator Hoar, Seator Sherman, Senator Edmunds, Gov. Porter, Petroleum X. Nasby and even Jeff I’a vis, all have something to say, our inside pages this week. “What is one man’s meat is another man's poison,” —when the ”bne man’’ is "a republican and the "‘other man” is a democrat, and the revs from Maine is to be digested. Our political supplement and our inside pages are both full of valuable and suggestive campaign literature. The letter from Senator Hoar, on one of our inside pages, is especially deserving of attention.
A prominent citizen remaiKed, a few days ago that the Hon. J. M. Butler was the only Indiana orator whom he preferred ,to the Hon. W. IV. Curry. Mr. Butler, is, indeed, a “mighty .man of words” and the political supplement, which accompanies this issue of The Republican is of more than ordinary value from the fact that in it is publisher in full one of the best speeches Mr. Butler ever made.
Us all the states which presented candidates before the last National Republican Convention. Vermont was the most bitterly disappointed. The people of that state were terribly in earnest in lheir desire for Mr. lEdmunds’ nomination; as well they might be for. he is a man well worthy o all honor. Under such circumstances, it Would not have been a matter for much surprise had there been a sufficient falling of in the Republican majority in tha state, at the recceut state election, to have justified, iu some degree, the false assertions of the democrats that the state has been earned, “by greatly reduced majorities.” We repeat t hat -under the circumstances, it would not have been surprising had there really lieen a serious falling off in the republican vote; but the facts really are that the majority is only two or three thousand less than it was four years ago, and is many Giousands greater than it was in ’BB2. It is mighty cold comfort the democrats extract from the result in V-drmont.
It is quite ttee common practice for democrats, Y’hen in conversation with temperance republicans, to profess to have great respect for iuen who vote for their principles, and to declare tSiat if they lieved in prohibition t&ey should vote for that palty; but no one ever hears them advancing such arguments in the heaYing of such men, sot instance, as the chairman of their county central ■committee, ft gentleman who has done mole talking in kfavor of prohibition than dny man in the county, as we Mlieve, yet who does not allow prohibition princi■l- interftr- in ihe len-* . kgi-pr-nHMhe zeal with which lit supparty which is the' of prohibition in B platform A ■■ bit ■ « fcmocrats who are so temper;.. the prose.
urn their attentions towards prolibition democrats, occasionally. They ought to remember that so long as they devote all their attenions of this kind to Republicans ex- clusively, that the sincerity of their motives will be quite certain to be called in question. Another and, perhaps, stronger reason why these very di democrats should try to induce Jthe professed prohibitionists, of their own political persuasion, to vote the prohibition ticket, is because the democratic party of the state-is •the avowed enemy of prohibition, and the prohibitionist who votes for the democatic party, stultifies his moral convictions; while, upon the other hand, there is no reason why a prohibitionist republican can uotconsistently and conscientiously vote for the state ticket of his party. It is true the Republican party of Indiana has not taken sides upon the .prohibition question, in either way, but it has declared that if it secures legislative and executive control of the state, it will give the people a chance to form a new constitution, and surely the prohibitionists can ask for no better opportunity for securing a vote of the people upon the question of constitutional prohibition, than will be offered at a constitutional convention.
Hon. W. W. Curry had s splendid meeting at Monticello last Saturday night. There was a'fine torch-light procession, and a "Crowd too large-to get within doorsand the meeting was accordingly held in the open air. Mr. Curry went from this place to Hammond, where he had an appointment for Tuesday night.
The Incarnation of Treachery
Chicago News. jAnd now they are accusing Thomas A. Hendricks of treachery to Cleveland! As if anything but treachery coll Id be expected of this man. whoso career has been marked from Hrst to last with perfidy—perfidy bo his country, his. party and his friends. Men do not gather figs of thorns nor grapes of thistles. Hendricks has always been the incarnation of treachery: he has thrived by it, and he wiR pursue it to the end as the business in which lie has always engaged and prospered.
The Fear of the Democracy is the Beginning of Calamlty.
Butler's Letter of Acerpt-y.nce. , . Who does not kftow that the very fear of the action of the Democracy in C'ougresslfcas so paralyzed American enterprise and business that mills are everywhere closing, mines shut up, furnaces blown out, and every kind of employment so curtailed that the mechanic and workingman are not earning enough to support life in comfort; so that the farmer even, deprived of a home market, and 'crushed down by discriminating rates of transportation, finds his corn, wheat and wool lower than it has been within the present generation. Can the people therefore trust the ina bine Democracy upon a shifting evasive and deceptive platform?
What People Would Like to Hear.
The people would like to bear Cleveland’s views upon The tariff, The Mormon Question. Our foreign policy, Taxation, Revenue. Business interests, The Southern problem; Railroads, National education, Public lands. Agricultural interests. And a few other topics of National concern. They had hoped and exexpected to find them treated in his letter 'df acceptance, but were disappointed. ' 1 " , The people would like to hear from Hendricks in relation to Copperheadism, Repudiation, GreenbackiSm, Whether the war was n failure, It the negroes should vote, If specie payments are a failure, And ttthttt things too numerous to nibotitfn. Many of-thb above topics ate 6Wt. but the pecfplb wodld like to know ft be stands by if is old reeoftl upon those ipiestioM. As the matter now stands, loyal citizens hesitate to ' support him. Let the democratic can* didates come out and show their colors. —(Burling'oo Hawkeye.
Curry at the Court House.
' A Rlftlit Good Crowd fend, a Splendid Speech. ‘ The Hbn. W. W. Curry addressed large audience, at the CeuTt House, last Monday evening.. It was a clear, logical and Convincing speefcV, the wordsofa man who spoke from the honest and earnest convictions of Ms heart, and. who had thoroughly rnastCred and understood the subjects he discussed. His lucid exposition of the tariff question, and of the benefits of American Protection and of the falseness.and the folly of the free trader's arguments, ought to have been heard by every voter in the county, and especially by every farmer. But it was a noble speech, in all particulars, and every word of it the “gospel truth; 14 .That fine old father of republicanism, ■Dr. James Ritchey, introduced the speaker in a felicitous manner. The Cornet Band and the Glee Club, were both on hand to furnish music for the meeting. s .
ROOMS it]-" THE I Republican Stab Central CooiiiGS, IxbiAXAt’oi.is.Sept. 1,1884. To the of Indiana: The 'election will be held Tuesday, November 4th, 1884. No man can vote at that election who is not then twenty-one years of age, and who was a resident of the State on the 4th day of May, 1884, and continuously a resident of the State from thdt time bn to the time of yoting. In addition, he must have been a rtsident of the township on and after the sth day of September, 1885, and a resident of the Voting precinct on and after October sth, 1884. Do not forget the dates. There will be many changes of residence in this State after the sth day of September.

Let every Republican be on the alert and we will win the victory. JNO. C. NEW, Chairman. - L. T. Mi cIiE.xER, Secretary.
On the Death of Mr. Xtiigile-I-ogansport Journal. The death of W. S; Lihgle, bf Lafayette, which occurred at Waukesha, Wis., takes fl'om the ranks of Indiana journalism one of its brightest ornaments. We was president of the Republican State Editorial Association, and during the past fifteen years has been one of the sharpest and most forcible writers in the profession in this state. He was the very soul of good humor, geniality and unbounded hospitality. He was always able to detect the bright side of every thing and every subject, and seemed always to move in an atmospere of mirth and good cheer. The history of Indiana and Indiana journalism would be-incomplete without prominent and honorable mention of his career and character, Dr, J. W. Hamilton of Merrillan, Wis., says, I have sold Warner’s White Wine of Tar Syrup for years. It is the best cough medicine in the world and has no equal for asthma. Sept.
