Republican Plaform.

We. -the Republicans of Indiana, In delegate convention assembled. reaffirm our faith in the progressive principles of the Republican party. We believe its policies, )iast and present, best calculated to promote the happiness and prosperity of the people. The administration of President Harrison and the Congressional legislation of that party were wise, pure and patriotic, and we point to tlie contrast between the home and foreign policies of that administration and the present travesty on government inflicted on the whole people. We believe in the Republican doctrine of protectionjand reciprocity. which furnishes a home market for the productions of our factories and our farms, and protects the American laborer against the pauper labor of Europe. We denounce the unwise and unpatriotic action of the Democratic party in attempting to climate the reciprocity principle from our tariff system, thereby closing a large foreign market to products of American farmers and depressing agricultural interests. We denounce the present attempt of a Democratic Congress to overthrow and destroy the American industrial system, a course that, •with a general fear of a violent readjustment of the country’s business to a free-trade basis, has increased the uatidhai debt and has,plunged the country into the’jnost disastrous business depression of its history, has closedJarge numbers of banks and factories throughout the country, has thrown an unprecedented number of Amier can citizens out of employment, lias comitelled thousands of able bodied and Jindustrious men to humiliate themselves by asking (for charity, and has filled our broad land with free souphouses and food markets. We believe in currency composed of gold, silver and pai>er, Ireadily convertible at a fixed standard of value, and entirely under national control. and we favor the imposition of increased duties ugion the imports from ail countries which oppose the coinage of silver ti|xm a basis to be determined by an international congress for sucii purpose. We denounce the avowed purpose of the Democratic party to restore the era of ’'wild cat” money. We believe la a liberal construction of our pension laws. Mid we condemn the unjust policy .of the presentjndmiulstration of depriving ex-soldiers of •heir pension without a hearing—* policy tn-

tended to east odium ti]x>n loyalty and patriotism, We beiitjvc it to be the *lufy of the State, as well as a nation, to. make-suitablejirdylsion for the earo and maintenance i>f all •lEdigen soldiers, their wives, and widows.

Whealfield Township Conyention. Notice, is hereby given to all the Republicans of Wheatfield town-ship-a®<&M who c ooperate with usjn the welfare of the good old party are requested to meet at the Wheatfield school house in the town of 'Wheatfield at 2 p. in., on SATURDAY, ’JUNE 30th, 1894. for the purpose of nominating the following officers. One Township Trustee, Two Justices of. the Peace. Two Constables. One township Assessor. John Graves, Chairman. Wm. Miller, Secy.

A Kansas man says be left the Populist party because it “is run by lawyers without clients, by preachers without pulpits, by women without husbands, by farmers without farms, by financiers without finance, by educators without education and by statesmen but of a job.”

The Walker tp., Republicans nominated the following ticket on June 2nd at their convention. John F. Pettit, for trustee. John O’Coimer, for Assessor. James Snyder, Justice of Peace. George Hollister, “ “ John M. Wiley, for constable. Philip Kearns, for constable. The attendance was large and the best of feeling prevailed. There was 95 votes cast. *-

The Democratic senators have gone before the people in many campaigns and said: “Only give ns, the Democratic party, a whack at the trusts and we’ll smash them beyond repair.” For the past two months they hive been in a position to whack the Democratic sugar trust, which contributes an immense sum of money to the Democratic campaign fund. In that time the market value of sugar certificates has increased •*3O a share, or more than $lO,000,000 in all. That is the kind of a bold smasher of trusts the Democratic party is.

The platform of the Democratic party at Chicago vigorously denounced the industry of the Sheriff, which, it is claimed, had been fostered by Protection. Remembering how busy a time the Sheriffs have had sitice March 4, 1893, it is well to see bow the Democratic performance has agreed with its denunciation of the Sheriff’s industry. During 1893 there were 11,560 trade failures in the United States, being 52 per cent more than in 1892. The liabilities of those who failed in 1893 were $460,000,000 as compared with liabilities of SIOB,000,000 in 1892, an increase of $352,000,000 in a single year. Was there ever such an arrant humbug and fraud as this Chicago denunciation of the Sheriff?

The “dark cloud that hovered o’er the scene” of The congressional .situation, is still hovering a good many hovers, and as yet the rifts tha-t should show the light beyond are not as numerous as could be wished. A pretty strong sentiment in favor of a new convention is growing up, all over the district, among the friends of both aspirants, and it is not unlikely that the amicable settlement

which, we still believe, will be the final outcome, will come in that shape. Of one thing we feel confident; and that is that if Mr. Landis is convinced that to resign his present nomination and to submit the who'e matter to the action of a new convention, will be the course most likely to secure harmony among the Republicans of his district, be will not hesitate to resign it. In the meantime the more Republicans there are that will try to discuss the matter in a spirit of conciliation and fairness, and with a desire to see all sides of the matter, the better will be the prospects for an ultimate amicable settlement.

Is It Populist or Anarchist ?

Here is the way the Kansas Populist Secretary of State talks. He is even more outspoken in utterance of anarchy than Mrs. Lease. In fact he lines right along up with Gov. Waite, of Colorado, who wants to wade in blood up to his horses’ bridles. Here is what the Kansas secretary says. “I wr>nt to make this prediction: There will be no overt act until the next election, then simultaneous with the returns flahies will shoot up into, the air from the Atlantic to the Pacific and every palatial residence will be destroyed in this uprising of the people. Woe unto them who have sought to stay this tide the past six months. Hie farmers are preparing for this; they are selling a horse or a cow and buying Winchesters, and many other people are doing the same.”

This is Sound Sense.

Indianapolis Journal. It would be a most timely thing for a number of excellent and ambitious Republicans to remember that it is of as much importance to each one # of the 25,000 to 30,000 men who will vote for a good Republican in each of the Indiana districts to have a Republican Representative as it is to them individually, and that no man calling himself a Republican has a claim upon snob candidacy that will warrant him in creating factions and stirring up strife which may jeopardize Republican success in-order to secure it It is all important to the interests of the country that the next House shall be Republican, and no one man's

A Jasper County Protest.

The following 'was sent to C. B. Landis, the nominee of the Hammond convention, the latter part of last week. It was signed by 100 Republicans, mostly of Rensselaer and vicinity. Dear Sir: We, the undersigned, true and loyal Republicans of Jasper County, respectfully state that after due and careful consideration and investigation of the Congressional situation conclude that there has been no nomination for Congress in the Tenth Congressional district, and that for you to accept the nomination tendered by the minority of the delegates selected and present at the Hammond convention will be to insure your defeat at the November election and everlasting retirement from Republican politics in the Tenth Congressional district. Not only will it defeat you but it will endanger the State ticket. We sincerely regret that a condition fraught with such deplorable results will be the reul t of j our acceptance of a nomination of this character. This is from Republicans that have never in the past been guilty of scratching a ticket that was given them 1 by a Republican nominating convention, and who under honorable victory would roll up an old-fash-ioned majority for you. This protest is a specimen of several to the same tenor, that are reported to have been sent to Mr. Landis, from various parts of the district; while on the other hand, he is receiving numerous advices to accept the nomination of the Hammond convention, and make the race. Between the two fires, he can well be granted time for reflection. In the end, however, we are confident that he will decide as he thinks the best interests of the party require.

Rensselaer Mulcted for 8800.

The trial of the disc of Mrs. Mary Dexter, wife of George.J. Dexter, now of Lafayette, against the town of Rensselaer, for damages resulting from personal injuries, from stepping in a hole in a side-walk, was tried last week at Kentland, where it had been sent on change of venue. Mis. Dexter sued for $3,000 and the jury gave her SBOO. The jury were all in favor of giving the plaintiff a verdict, but they varied pretty widely, at first, as to the On the first ballot four jurors favored giving the plaintiff the full amount of her claim, $3,000. The others varied from very small sums up to near the $3,000 mark. The verdict probably represents about the average amount. The case went to the jury Friday afternoon, and they agreed on a verdict early Saturday morning.

The League Buttonier.

Acting under instructions in the form of a resolution, passed at the annual meeting held in Indianapolis on Feb. 13, 1894, the officers of the Indiana Lincoln League has had prepared a button of special design to be known as the official League Emblem. The button is made of bronze, with raised bust of Lincoln in the center and the inscription, “Lincoln League of Indiana” on the margin surrounding the bust. It is one of the neatest and most appropriate emblems ever adopted by any political organization, and will tend to uniform and bring into closer relations the League of Republican clubs in Indiana. These buttons can be secured through R. E. Mansfield, Secretary of the League, Indianapolis, Ind.

He Likes It Mower and More!

Messrs N. Warner A Sons, The six foot cut Standard Mower that I bought of C. A. Roberts four years ago this season, for $65 has given entire satisfaction in every respect. 1 have cut from 140 to 160 acres each year, using my lightest team to do the work, cutting from 12 to 15 acres a day with ease. Expense on mower for four years $1.50. I have been asked if I was to buy another mower if I would buy a Standard. My answer is yes. I think there is none better on the account of its simplicity and durability, doing good work, light draft and no weight on neck yoke.

Memorial Day Observances.

The people of Rensselaer and vi-. ; cinity observed Memorial Day, on Wednesday afternoon, of last week, with all of their old time earnestness and devotion. The people attended very numerously, both in organized bands, and individually. The attendance from the country was especially large, much larger, in fact, than might reasonably have been expected. The procession to the cemetery, under the able direction of Capt. Marshall and his aids, Gwin and Harrold, was extensive and impressive. The organized bodies that participated were, G. A. R. post, Women’s Relief Corps, Fire Company, Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellow s, Boys’ Brigade, and Seifert Light Guards, of St. Joseph’s College. The Rensselaer Cornet band and the College band, furnished the music. The exercises at the cemetery were strictly in accordance with the published program, and were listened to with universal attention. The address by Hon. M. L. Spitler was the principal feature of the exercises. It was a very able iffort, and in every respect appropriate to the occasion.
