THE CIRCUIT JUDGESHIP.
Tlio circuit judge nominated next Tuesday aud elected next No- . vember t\xll fill out Judge Hammond’s unexpired term, being a Jasper county man, it is in accordance with the fitness of things that Jasper county should have his successor. Moreover, Benton county already has the Prosecuting Attorney and Newton has the State Senator and the candidate for Representative. Jasper county must therefore keep the judge-ahiporhavenothing. We have two good men engaged in open, manly and friendly conI test for the nomination. Both of them deserve well of the people and deserve well of the Republican party. > Either of them will make an entirely available candidate, and, when elected, will —discharge the responsible and onerous duties of the position, -with industry, fairness dignity- and efficiency. Last, but not least by any means, both have that special cljpm upon the gratitude of the which belongs to those who served their country fearlessly and well, in “Those, times that triec men’s souls” the great war for the preservation of our national existence. The respective friends of these two Jasper county candj idates ought to go to Gopdlrfm next Tuesday and do all they honorably can to secure the nomination of their own man, and when it becomes evident that their man can not win, then they should unite their forced and all work for the other. If they do this, their course will meet the universal approval of the Republicans of Jasper county but of the whole people. Stand by Jasper county in this contest It is only asking for what it ought, of right, to have.

Results of the American Policy.
Of the results of the policy of reciprocity and protection, William Eleroy Curtis forcibly says:' It is due to conditions that the rains of the ancient world vibrate with the shriek of a Philadelphia locomotive; that the holy Kremlin at Moscow and the Vatican at Rome are strung with wires that were spun in Pittsburg and are lighted with lamps that Wfere m ade at Lynn; that the murmur o an American sewing machine is heard in every palace of Europe and Asia; that the King of mam communicates with his minister through an American telephone;, that the basement of the Parliament House in London is filled Jwith machinery made at Providence, Rhode Island.
All on Account of McKinley.
The McKinley tariff ,law has reduced the cost of living 3.4 per cent, raised the rate of wages\34 per cent; reduced the annual revenue, $50,0|0,000; raised the'trade balance to $203,000,000. So the Senate Committee reports; and its findings after most careful investigation, were concurred in by the Hon. John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky, and the Hon. Isham G Harris, of Tennessee, two of the leading members of the Senate.
The Sugar Bounty Again.
This [£. e., free sugar] means bo relief whatever from the Protective burdens of the tariff, for we have paid in the bounty as much as we would*have paid for Protection if the duty on sugar had not been abolished, while the Treasury has lost 156,000,000 of revenue, or more. —The Chicago Herald. The sugar-bounty liar seems determined to rival the achievements of the now almost defunct tin-plate liar.. Does not the Herald know that the total amount expended by the government for sugar bounties during the last fiscal year waß only $7,330,044, and that of this sufn $6,8.70,50(5, or more than six-sevenths, went to the sugar planters of Louisiana? Ts it does net then the Southern sugar/ “barons” should send up a Representative into the wilds of Chicago tor the purpose of “educating” - Illinois Tariff “ reformers” on the sugar question. It makes a good deal of difference to the Bourbon Free-trader of the South whether Free-Trade touches his own products or not, a point on which the distinguished author of the Mills bill can give all desired Information.—American Economist
A Hammond Special says that Thomas Hammond, the democratic nominee for congress, is virtually a citizen of Michigan, having the most of his interests there, but as manager of an English syndicate, he has taken up his at Hammond. With his property in Michigan, his residence a few feet from the Illinois line and his occupation managing the business of an English syndicate, he will not be a fit representative of Indiana in the halls of Congress. His English connections however made him a fit candidate for the democracy. The Vidette would suppose the English trait unpleasant to the Irish democrats. , The Hammond Tribune says he is a cleve r busir.f gx ytieirpr tut t 8 no business fitness suitable for congress. Jolmston is admitted to be amply qualified.—Valparaiso Yidette. **' / i . ';*L "
Cleveland Would Carry England
I The Democratic party io tb* States may rest assured that if English sympathy could carry the election ofGrywer Cleveland in No vember the White House would be theirs. We shall watch the struggle with the keenest interest; Audv-even if *the triumph be not attained all at once, lh°re is indeed reasog for congratulation that one of the great American ' parties has made free tjsdv V 1 and simple, the great battle cry of* the future.—Liverpool (Eng. )Courier. » ' :* 'W.'£
A Tariff Object Lesson.
York Tribune.] Tbe>New York World of Wed* paragraps in its news columns! . A local builder of Robertsford, Bergen County, estimates that between $4,000,000 and $6,000,000 will be invested in that town in building * new mills. William Roberts, an English manufacturer of alpacas and mohairs, will establish three large factories there. Fricke Bros, have erected a building at Garfield for the manufacture of essential oils, r and will employ 150 They have removed their entire business from Leipsic, Germany. ~ ■--- The World has been conducting an extremely vigorous campaign in its colmhus'egainst the MeKinly tariff,/and 'the system of protection generally. Will the World kindly'favor us with the information whether, in its opinion, any English manufacturer of alpacas and mohairs could have been induced to plan the building of large mills in this country if it were not for the duties of a protective tariff?* - *.

A Mean Man.
The Warsaw Republican has heard of the champion mean man. It says that there is a business man over at LaG range who is meaner than the man who crossed his bees with lightning bogs so they would work at night. The Indiana man is a merchant, and while driving from Rome City home he lost a wallet containing SB,OOO. A lightning rod agent from Kalamazoo, Mich., chanced along and found the money. The Michigander proceeded on his way and it was three months before heard of the owner, although he made diligent search for him. When the LaGr&nge man got possession of his lost treasure he said nothing, but yrent straightway ' and began suit in the Circuit Court against the lightning rod agent for interest on the money at the rkte of 8 per cent, setting up in his complaint that the use of it waif worth that amount.
