The order of the Blue and the Gray, a polities! prohibition organization, ostensibly composed of soldiers of-the late war, of either side. It is a fact easily noticable, however, that the Organization is only being pushed actively in the states of New York, Ohio and Indiana. It is easy enough to see why that is so. The organization is, like the Prohibition party of which it is an adjunct, merely a democratic Aid Society, and is being worked to take temperance Union soldiers away from the Republican party, and in the states where their loss will be most injurious to the'Republican cause. Here is another little trophy to Mr. Allen G. Thurman. It has been discovered that the following plank of the democratic platfOTm of 1864 wbß wrifteh by the present democratic ranfliiWc for Vice-President The fact will still further endear him to the soldiers, Who were then in the field figktrttff for the -preßefvaCroti Union: ~ •‘Resolved.,Artist this convention does eiplicitly declare, as the eenee of American people, that

Sheriff Burfob, of Pulaski county, has sued the Winamac Prefect, anew Democratic paper in that town, for SIO,OOO damages. The Prefect felt aggrieved because the sheriff gave nil his legal printing to the old Democratic paper, the Journal, and gave expression to its wrath in a paragraph, which is the cause of the suit, and which rtfads as follows: “It is rumored that Sheriff Burton and the proprietor of the Democratic Journal share the printer’s fee for the publication of the sheriff’s sale notices, hence their appearance in that paper. Mr. Burton is now on his last term as a public officer and it looks as if lie is making all the money he can out of the position he holds.” J. H. Reddick and Frank Brown are the publishers of the Prefect. Mr. Reddick, the principal editor, is superintendent of schools in Pulaski county. Burton has engaged a formidable array of legal talent to push his suit, in fact all the lawyers in Winamac, and it looks as though he meant to make the dossal vertabrge of the Prefect exceeding weary, before he is done with it.

OUR NEW CANDIDATES.

The Republican candidate for prosecuting attorney for the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, nominated at Goodland, last Tuesday, i 3 Capt, Ralph W. Marshall, the present incumbent. As to his availibility as a -eanclidaje, The JReppblican needs to say UP more than to refer its readers to the many “hearty commendations of his official course, lately given him by the Republican and Independent press of tbe circuit, many of which were republished in this paper; and to ada that we believe that in this respect the newspapers only gave voice to the overwbelmning sentiment nf the people of the circuit. Politically, Mr. Marshall is a true and most zealous Republican and we believe will always be found ready to do share for the success of the party. Mr. John TV Johnson, the Republican candidate for Representative, is one of Newton county’s best known and most honored citizens. ? He is a farmer, by vocation, but has seen much of public life, and knows the wants of the people, of all classes. He is considerably past tbe middle point of life, but is still hale and vigorous. He is well read and possessed of far mor 04k an an ordinary share of brains and intelligence. Personally he is one of the most pleasant and genial of men. His name on the ticket will be a source of strength, in the campaign and when elected, as he of course will be, he will be an able and zealous legislator.

The American Policy.

Chicago Current ' ' Another important consideration is presented by the comments of the English press. England desires free trade in America. She has long desired the advantages of our market. Here is the finest field for the sale of her manufactures iu the world, and she wants to enter it through free ports. It is almostnnnecessary lo- say that whatever benefits England in this regard will injure the United States. Protection is the American policy. Our institutions were -fonnded and have flourished under that policy, and a change could not possibly be made without Borl»~ ous effects if not complete rain to oar iodaetrial interests.

The Absolutely Protected Industries.

The industry and adroitness of those who have undertaken to force upon the United States the British system of free foreign trade are worthy of a hetter cause, A favorite practice of these men has been pointing to certain trades not exposed to foreign competition, and citing the comparatively high wages paid in tljem as an argument, for withdrawing protection from all industries.

While it is true that wages paid to carpenters, masons,.house painters, blacksmiths, etc.,, are high as,, and in many instances higher than wages paid workmen in a majority of the mamufucturing industries, the deception practiced by free traders lies in their claim that the class of mechanics named are not protected because their trades are not enumerated in tariff laws, The fact is they are protected by uat. -aml-oonditions Htroiiger ihan any law of Congress, and it is in consequence of this absolute protection that they ’Rre enabled to demand and secure better pay. Bricklaying, carpentery, house-paintiDg and tinning cannot be done in foreign countries and houses be brought here ready for occupancy. Nobody knows this better than the free trade attorneys, else they would be found quite as strenuous for free houses as they are for free ships, free wool and free lumber. The village blacksmith is absolutely protected by the donditions which render it impossible for the farmer to send his horse abroad to be shod, or his wagon or plow to be repaired, otherwise the vigilant free trade advocate would not long permit his protection to stand unassailed.

However adequately defended against foreign competition in these particular lines of work they may be, the class of mechanics referred to cannot afford to pverlook the importance to themselves of securing adequate protection to all other industries. Every man in the country kept steadily and contentedly employed in some other industry lessens the danger from over crowding in the naturally protected trades. Every dollar kept in the country which, under a free trade policy would go abroad, enables somebody to spend that much more money, which may go into building or repairing houses, shoeing horses, or some similar work necessarily done by mechanics at or near home. These in turn will have the additional dollar to pay the farmer for bread, the gardener for fruit or vegetables, or to otherwise spend for family comfort or convenience. Thus it is that the maintenance of our protective policy appeals directly to those voters whom the promoters of free trade are seeking to enlist m their vrork of repealing existing tariff laws with a view to replacing them with laws dictated in the interest of England, a nation at once envions of our growing wealth and jealous of our greatness among the nations of the earth. Our workingmen, of all others, should avoid becoming supporters of free trade, through either the flattery or deceptions of its advocates.
