Turpie and Voorhees, the Copperheads and traitors to their country, and Gray, Matson and Myers, the rengade Republicans and traitors to their paity, are the men whom the Democracy of Indiana delights to honor. Loyal Democrats, like McDonald and Manson, can take back seats. When Republicans have spoken the truth about Gov. Gray, the Democrats have been ready with their omnipresent chorus of “liar! liar! liar!” but when ‘old saddlebags” McDonald, the most generally honored and trusted living democrat in the state, says that Gray’s cry is that of the horse-leech and his plate, like Oliver Twist’s, is always held up for “more,” they ‘maintain a profound silence. W. J. Huff, late of the Monticello Herald, in company with Edward Welty, lias purchased the did Valparaiso Vidette and issued the first number under their management, last week. Mr. Huff is one of the ablest newspaper men in Northern Indiana, and as may well be supposed, the Vidette presents a wonderfully improved appearance. Newton county lias two avowed candidates for the Republican nomination for joint representative for Jasper and Newton counties. We refer to Mr. Wm. Cummings and Mr. D. L. Bishopp. Both would serve their constituents with credikaiid... ejflier..Would,, receive the hearty support of the Gazette if nominated. Newton county is entitled to the nomination and we can look for a lively race between these two candidates. —Kentland Gazette. ■

THE COUNTY CONVENTION.

We publish this week the complete list of delegates to the Republican county convention, to be held next Saturday, with the exception of the two from Milroy tp. whose names have not been reported. The delegates are a splendid body of men; men well known throughout the county; men of intelligence, influence, strict probity, and genuine Republicans. That such a body of men will well and wisely perform the work before them, next Saturday, goes without Saying. They will nominate a good ticket, one that every true Republican in the county can heartily support, and they will do the work in a seemly and harmonious manner, without wranglings or illfeelings. Of the work before the convention, the choice of a candidate for Sheriff will, doubtless, be the most onerous. Five good and popular men are in the field and a somewhat protracted contest may ensue before a majority of the delegates unite upon any one of them. It is not unlikely, either, that the convention will be obliged to spend some time in settling the claims of the rival con test ants for the nomination for Commissioner in the ! First District For Commissionjers for the Second and Third.._Di&--tricts and for County Treasurer, the present. ly avowed candidates. They are all serving their first terms, and having, as wo moat earueLitly and" sincerely believe, served the people wisely, honestly, faithfully and, at all timesT with an eye single to the public good, we presume the convention will re-nominate them, without serious opposition. Foi Surveyor, that good old man and thoroughly competent civil engineer, James C. Thrawls, is the only candidate and will, without doubt, be re-nominated, without any opposition.

INDIANA DEMOCRACY.

Indiana, although no longer an October State, is still seoond in importance only to New York, and in the altogether probable event of a solid Republican vote from New England it would be of equal importance to New York from a Presidential point of view. The Democratic State Convention which met at Indianapolis jliursday may prove to have determined the result in November next. It was certainly fraught with deep significance. * The notable feature of the proceedings was the unconditional surrender of the party to renegade Republicans. Gov. Gray, who belongs in this category, yyas put i forward as the “favorite son” of Hoosierdom and a formal candidate for the Vice Presidential nomination. In this he find to ride, rough shod and ruthlessly over the natural leader of the party in that-state, ex-Senator McDonald, and disregard the known but hardly suppressed ambition of Senator Voorhees. Notice was served upon the old- timers that they must go to the rear and abandon their, ambitions. This notice was doubly emphasized by the nominations made for Governor and Lieutenant Governor, both Matson and Myers, the nominees for those offices, being also renegade Republicans. Obviously it is a disqualification in an Indiana Democratic convention to have been an original Democrat The policy is to put a premium upon desertion. The resbrutions were “reported by William H. English, and they bear the- ear-marks of Democratic platforms. They see nothing good in the Republican party, nothing io critise in the Democracy, together with the usual demand for free trade and free whisky, with certain shallow and sham endeavors to so hedge as to give a double meaning to the platform as a whole. There is a suggestive silence on State matters, and an evident desire to divert attention from home politics. Considering the frauds perpetrated in the interests of the Democracy and the criminal conspiracy formed, as shown by court proceedings which are still fresh in the public mind, this disposition to turn the attention of the public in other directions can occasion no surprise. The resolutions go so ‘far as to bring up again the contest of 187677 with its sequel. Do the Democrats of Indiana propose to drag the late Vice President Hendricks from the grave and rattle his bones over the corduroy road of politics? That thing has been harped on until, it can move no responsive chord. On the contrary political fraud, in the present dictionary of Indiana, means the rascality by which Senator Turpie came to occupy the seat which rightfully belonged to ex-Senator Harrison. Indiana is really a more hopeful field for Republican work than New York. The present Congressional delegation from that State stands six Democrats to seven and this division fairly indicates the-chances of[the two parties.' The Republicans are just a little ahead iu the line of probabilities. They carried the state in 1880, and again in 1886, losing it in the intermediate year, 1884, but their majority in ISSb'was nearly three times larger thau that of the Democrats in 1884. Now that the Democratic convention has been held, and has antagonized the McDonald element of the party, the outlook is peculiarly encouraging, especially if the National Republican Convention should, as it is likely to do, place an Indiana man in nomination for the Presidency. —Chicago Inter Ocean.
