The federal election bill has passed the House and will probably soon oass the Senate and become a law. In spite of the prolonged and frantic howl the Democrats are making against this bill, and especially the Southern Democrats. it does not contain a "single provision that in any way can interfere with, or'annoy anyone who is willing to JhifiOiil u> every man the rights grants by the constitution. It is a just and & righteous bill, and no unprejudiced men who favors the supremacy of the Constitution of the United States and of the principles of right and justice, can fed any fault*vith it. ■■if — turn w- mi wm

There are large numbers of old soldiers and soldiers’ .widows and orphans ia this county who are entitled to pensions under the new disability pension act, aud many have already taken the preliminary steps towards securing what they are entitled to. In this connection . The Republican feels like saying to all of our readers who are , contemplating applying f° r P ea_ sions under this or any other Act, that their safest, cheapest, wisest and in every way best course, is to make their applications tbr-rngh the local agents. Their pensions will be just as large and come just as soon, and whatever money is pfel for the service, will be kept at home, instead of bemg paid to non-residents who are already wealthy and whose wealth does no good to any but themselves. Keep the pension agent fees at home, by all means.

We think that the more,folly the old soldiers end their friends learn to understand the provisions of the new pension law the more

[they are dispose l ! to look upon it |as a very liberal and satisfactory | piece of legislation. It is not, by any means, all that could have been desired, nor all that was, in justice, required, but considering the difficulties in the way or liberi ai pension laws, the act as passed was perhaps till that could reasonably have been expected. The Republican majority in Congress , is narrow at best, and especially is that the case in the Senate; and , what is about as' much in ! the way of pension laws |iu that body as the close majority is the fact that quite a number of the eastern Senators, wealthy and half Hugj wumps as they are, are not favorj able to liberal new pension laws, ; and holding the balance of pow.er 1 as they do, their views must, necj essarily have considerable’irttiuence in shaping the pension laws, it is a very liberal law and will put vast sums of money in the hands : of our brave ox-soldiers, or the i widows, paients or orphans, iu the aggregate, and put the money where it is most needed, and thus prove a vast benefit directly. Moreover, in a less direct way, the passage of this law will be a good thing for the soldiers, for it will afford Congressmen an opportunity to see how favorably the people look upon the expenditure of large sums of the public money in pensions, and it will thus pave the way for still more liberal treatment of the Union soldiers, in the very near future.

According to a statement in the ; Logansport Journal, Judge Baldwin makes no secret of the fact that (in his mind’s eye) he could j be nominated and elected toCon-| gress by the Democrats of the Tenth district, without the leaet difficulty, if he would only soy the word. But he won’t because, forsooth. the position of OongresFi man is quite too small potatoes to man of the Judge's great calibre, as measured by himself, and therefore the Democrats of the district must, as Baldwin himself says, nominate one of their own number. The opinion the Judge has as to the ease and certainty by which he could be nominated and elected by the Democrats, does not accord jat all with the opinions of the said Democrats, on that score. Though very ready to quote and compliment the Judge when he made free trade the excuse for leaving the parly whieh had disappointed his aspirations for office, they changed their tone very quickly, wlieh liis name, . began- to be tinned as a candidate foi-Congi'wss J against Billy Owen. When it comes to talk of that kino, then they have no further use for Baldwili. The Demqcfatic papers of; tin* district are giving, very free j ■ exj ressioJi to the views of their party m this respect, ami the tenor i of their remarks is well iliustrated by the Moatieello Democrat, in the following paragraph: “Judge Baldwin says hs§ could be elected to Congress on the Democratic ticket, but he does not wish'to goto Congress. Mr. Baldwin evidently has a very exaggerated opinion of himself. He could not come within 3,000 votes of being elected to Congress on the Democratic ticket and the democrats of the 10th district don’t want to send him to Congress, either. He can rest easy on that score and turn his entire to the suit now pending against him for failing to list property for taxation.’’

A recent decision of the supreme court maintains that if a man wants to go faster than another ahead of him on the rood he is going he has a right to pass, aud if prevented by the other, and an accident should happen thereby, the man thus obstructing the road is reponsible for the damage done. No man has a right io iulriuge on the rights of others in trying to pass however. —Ex. -

It can be said of Hon. E. P. Hammond of Rensselaer, recently nominated for judge by the Republicans of the thirtieth judical district, that no more upright man ever wore the ermine; his ability and learning displayed as a jurist is unquestionable, and his maDy fine qualities of head and heart have

gained him the admiration and rer speet of ail wim know krm. Mr. Haimmutd was appointed, while filling the office feF which he is again a candidate, by Gov. Porter, to sufKfeedr Judge Wood, resigned, on the supreme bench of the state. The choice of John T. Brown, a leading lawyer of Fowler* for prosecuting attorney, nominated with unanimity, also gives general satis-faction-among the Republicans of the thirtieth judical district.—LaFayette Sunday Times.

THE NEW ELECTION LAW.

When Voters Must Register. Under the new law a'voter must register at the county clerk’s office three months before the election — 1. If, having been a resident of Indiana, lie has absented himself from tire state for six months or more. 2. If, having been a resident of Indiana, he has voted in another state. 3. If, having been a resident of Indiana, he has gone into another state with the intention of voting there. . - 1 A - 4. If he has not been abona fide resident of the cojmty in which he resides for at least six months before the election. (This latter provision is one of great importance, as heretofore the law only required a residence of G months in the state, 60 days in the township and 30 days in the precinct.) 5. . Persons who .have registered shoukl take their certificate of registration to the polls with them, as they cannot vote, if challenged, without producing it. The above registration need not be made, if, prior to leaving the state, the person files with the clerk a notice of his intention to hold his residence in Indiana, ~" r ~~

OUR CONGRESSMAN.

Why the Democratic Papers are Seeking to Prevent His Re-Nomination. Logansport Journal. The candidacy of Nelson J. Bozarth, of Porter county, is endorsed by ninety soldiers who sign the following: “Whereas. The Tenth Congressional district has never been*represented in Congress by a private soldier, and “Whereas 4 , the Hon. W. D. Owen has now been in Congress three terms and we believe such honors should be passed around.” This is the awful terms of opposition portrayed by the Pharos [and other democratic papers of the Tenth district], and it is certainly alarming that a gentleman at the other .end of the district should have ninety personal friends. Mr. Bozarth ran for Congress in this district once on the Greenback ticket and was defeated. ■ It speaks well for him that, he now receives the kindly indorsement of ids f iends. Ilis idea however, of passing around "fluT congressional ■>>•urination is not a good one. Ibe Tenth district would not have unv weight in Congress and its tvpi n o-utative would not rernaiu b *ng »-<>• • fgh to get any influence. Ihe th district is stronger to-day io Die Halls of Congress than has any Imliaira district since tin* J *ys of o<>tfax, and the people an* proud of it. The pari* of wisdom is to strengthen that position by the re-nomina-tion' of Hon. W. D. Owen. His electiou will follow. There need be no fear about that. The Hammond Standard says that lie ran 152 votes ahead of the ticket in Porter county and 67 in Lake and that now 500 democrats in Lake county stand ready to endorse his work for them on the Calumet. Every day democratic friends at home speak of their admiration of him and their intention to endorse him at the polls and while disappointments may occasion opposition to his nomitthtion it will not be carried to any dangerous extent. The Journal does not exaggerate when it says (hat he is to-day the strongest Republican in the district by at least a thousand votes and that is the secret of the desperate attempt of the Pharos to prevent his nomination.

Modern Discoverers.

What Bell and Edison are to the teltfTjh‘»r an'! nlectrMty says the Pittsburg News. l)r. Franklin Miles the wellknown specialist in nervous diseases is to the nervous system and nerve fluid. Among his numerous discoveries his Restorative Nervine is undoubtedly one of the greatest. It is unsurpassed in nervousness dyspepsia headache epilepsy neuralgia backache inelahcholly sleeplessness, change of life etc. Free trial bottles of it may be' hud of B. F. Fendig $ Co- Druggists and also Dr. Miles’ new book onNew and Startling Facts for the afflicted. Everyone should, read this very interesting ioructive and finely illustrated book.

SOLDIER AND CHRISTIAN.

A Minister in the Ranks Wl»o Would z - Not Shoot. There is a meriiher of Company I of the Forty-first Ge>. gia .- gimegt living in this county, says the kerafson, Ga.. Banner, who was in every battle fought by his regiment, in cverv skirmish in which his 'company engaged in, in every charge made by his command, and did not - fire a gun. He was then, and is now, a minister Of the gospel, He did not believe in killing men, and frequently charged the enemy with a yell, saw his comrades fall by his side, and whether routing the lb lion soldiers or being routed h ; ot shoot. He was always i >r duty—stood guard, remained at -’ s picket post, and obeyed implicitly < very command of his superior officers except- to draw, cartridges, load his gun ami shoot. At New Hope churiffi, o*i file rStrcat from Dalton, several rounds of cartridges were iseued to Pie soldiers, and he took one. and a short time afti : ward he was struck by a s]>ent ball, but not hurt. This remarkable man is a successful farmer and a splendid Bible Christian preacher, and is named Zachariah P. Hardigree.

What He Would Hf-kt With. Col. Robert Lewis, representative from Hancock, tells the story of a duel in which he was to act as one of the principals,—says. •he rhteon (Ca.) Telegraph. He was then paying devoted attention to a j’C”ng lady, and had a rival as devoted - himself. The rival grew quarrelsome, and his feelings, of which he y< - ’t ns fine an assortment as ary 1 ■; t that ever stood on the Add, - huff bv something that Col. Lewis had said. He sent a “friend’bto see liis enemy. A card was handed t:'ol. “ Lewis, which read about as follows: “You have insulted me and I demand satisfaction. You may cho'ose the weapons we shall tight with. Shali.iv Lv, pistols, shotguns, bowie-knives, or what?” To this card Col. Lewis replied briefly that he would fighThir.. with “what.” “We haven’t fought yet,” said Col. Bob. “I don’t suppose they have yet invented the weapon 1 wanted to fight with. But every ti..,,. T .-oe that man in a crowd I can run him away—we are good friends lioyr —by asking him if ho still wants to fight.”.

Curing: a Hiccough. Mr. Smifhkin had heard that a sure cure for a hiccough was a severe frg-ht. One evening, smoking at his fireside a fter supper, he was mV with a hiccough which continued sh spite of all his efforts £q check it. Presently he got up suddenly from his chair, and called out in alarm to Mrs. Smith kin: ’■l’ve lost my watch! I’ve lost my watch!" ■•John Sm'fthkin!"..said she. ‘-what do you mean? Why. you' Jiaint done any, such a thing. IL As your watch all right, in your vest pocket." «♦Don’t you think I know that?’’ said Mr. Smifhkin. • J was just giving myself a severe fright, you know, tc stop the hieehughs!”

ImycssiWe. There was to be a e ompany at dinner, says thcßinghnmpton Republican, and Bobbie’s mether had cautioned him to be careful of his behavior, especially to eat sparingly, and always to say thank you » hen anything was passed him. The older peep! rather numerous and.-p-crlmps, rather hungry. At all events they kept the hostess so busy that she found no time to-wait upon Bobby. The little fellow grew desperate. ■■Say; ma, " Li. ! h.. 1. after'a time, ’*how can ~ , ingly and say thunk you, If I don’t get any-
