The Franco-Prnssian Trouble.

jft iThc ©auWiahinent of a Prussian We apon the throne of Spain Would be a menace to France, just 'Mi the establishment of Maximillian in Mexico would have been • menace to the United States, and Napoleon was Justifiable in demanding that Hoheasollern withdraw from the candidature. As a Frenchman, jealous of the honor of France and watchful of the interests and welfare of the nation, Napoleon is also justifiable in demanding that Prussia should enter into a treaty never again to favor the pretensious of a German prince to the Spanish ciou n. As a measure of national jmliey this was wise and patriotic. France and Prussia are the rival powers of continental Europe.— Their ratareftts must ever conflict. Whateter the one can do to cripple the other is so much strength gained. Had Prussia tamely submitted to the demauds of France she would have been humbled in the eyes of all nations and the French would have gained a great victory. But however much France may desire the humiliation of Prussia, she is not strong enough to accomplish it without assistance from her neighbors, and hence, as a diplomatic measure the demand of Napoleon was miwisc and savors of madness. Coming as it did from a rival, the demand was insolent and insulting and Prussia had no choice as an honorable people, hut to decline the proposition. On her part this aclion'wus wise and patriotic. It was wise in the Frenchman to desh-e the humiliation of a rival, and it was wise in the Prussian to refuse to be humiliated. France has gone too far in this matter. She has acted with basic and shown that she was frightened. Her diplomatists and statesman, hot-headed and impetuous, have been outwitted by the cool impurtubility of the Prussians. {She is taken at disadvantage, nervous, excited and with the sympathy of two-thirds of the civilized world against her. Under her excitement, France has demanded more than was necessary, more than she can compel, and the result will humiliate her eveu if war is avoided; if war is not avoided loss of territory seems inevitable.

Anti-Progressive Democracy.—Mean Trick of a Candidate.

The anti-progressive spirit of democracy was never better exemplified than in the caucussing at Remiogton before their senatorial nominating convention was convened. About threo months ago the neighbors of Mr. A. W. Reynolds, of White county, started a movement to have him nominated for State senator. Their endeavors were seconded by his friends in Pulaski county, which placed the result beyond doubt, as under their apportionment White and Pulaski have a clear majority over the three counties of Jasper, Newton and Benton. Seeing their helplessness the three smaller counties acquiesced in the arrangement with the usual submissive grace of democralic minorities and Mr. Reynolds had no competitor. But this did not exactly suit Mr. Reynolds. The thing, though deftly cut, was a little too dry. There was no sclat in such an arrangement The submission was too tame. There would be no enthusiasm. The republican candidate had a clean 450 majority and this could not be overcome without he inspired enthusiasm sufficient to make all his followers work. So a few days before tlie convention was to meet he resolved to imitate au illustrious example and decline, and published a card in the Monticello Constitution-

mlitt stating that his private business would not permit him to make the canvass and that he would not be a candidate before the convention. This he caused to be put in circulation throughout the district. As soon as they received this notico the friends of Mr. I. M. Stackhouse, in this county, went to wbrk to obtain the nomination for him and met with such favor that by 10 o’clock on the morning of rention the sacoossful result of their efforts seemed to be placed beyond contingency—there was no Other candidate in the field. In a few minutes however the tide begin to ebb and soon the young democracy were hopelessly beached. The eastern train brougbt down Mr.'Keynolds and the working men at the White and Pulaski county delegations, who soon ascertained how matters stood and struck the jrand coup d'etat. ISgPIksL threatened event would

never do. barnacles of would never permit such a departure front “ancient landmarks and established customs.” Mr. Stackhouse was too thoroughly imbued with the pfogresslve ideas of the age/to suit their slowcoach opinions. He was too freo from bigotry, his mind was too active, his thoughts too expansive, l.is feelings too refined, they could not comprehend such a man, there was no sympathetic bond hniting them and they mistrusted and feared him. Another argument was set at work which found peculiar and characteristic expression in the forcible language of “Hon. Thoipas R. Barker, of Newton.” who remarked “Let them powcomers wait awhile, by God, sir!” Everything had worked as was anticipated. Mr. Reynolds saw his opportunity and with the air of. a martyr, announced that at the earnest solicitations of friends from Pulaski county, who had been instructed for him, and who represented that he was the only man in the district who could carry the democratic vote, he had concluded to sacrifice personal interest upon the alter of party fealty and accept the nomination if it was the desire of the democracy outside of hiH own county. The ruse was successful. Newton and Benton counties were won over through sheer admiration at such wonderful self-abnegation and Jasper county was left to console her mortified pride with the empty honor of furnishing the chairman and a secretary for the convention. This was a mean littlo trick, and through its operations the democracy neglected au opportunity to nominate a gentleman of culture, refinement, comprehensive intellect and progressive ideas, one who would have been an honor to his constituents, if he had been elected —and selected in his stead—Alfred W. Reynolds.

The Calumet Bill.

Our representative in congress succeeded before that body adjourned in putting through both houses a special bill by which the Calumet Draining Company of Lake and Porter counties “gobble up” 4,000 acres of government lands. he reconciles this act with the 7th article of the Indiana republican platform which was repeated in the Cth resolution adopted at the 'Wanatah convention, we can’t see. If it is wr«ng for congress to grant donations of public land to railroads it is just as wrong to grant them to draining companies. Our • representative knows that his party constituents are opposed to this policy and said in his speech accepting the renomination “if they further complain that congress makes land grants to railroads, we shall show them that the system was originally invented by a democrat,” thus condemning the policy. The Calumet draining company is a twin sister to the Kankakee draining company and was organized under the same obnoxious act 6f the Indiana legislature, and although the Calumet bill of congress does not in so many words give the land to that company it subjects it to the provisions of sections 6, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 16 of our draining act. It does not say “gentlemen we make you a present of 4,000 acres of land” but it does place this property in a position to be stolen and provides that the thieves may go unpunished. We quote one of the arguments used by a correspondent of the Crown Point Register in justification of this particular wrong; “No person has assumed, ownership of these lands, or acknowledged it by the payment of either township, county or State tar. The question of title was, I understand, yaised in committee, and congress decided it belonged to the United States. Should this land be drained and made valuable by the settlers and owners on the Calumet, and pay nothing? The hill passed by congress and advocated by Packard says no! It shall pay its just proportion of the cost ot drainage, and it shall be sold and thus have an owner, and subject to taxation. Packard in this has done tis duty,”

The same argument would' bold good against every foot ol public land in the United States and not only against the land but also the public buildings, money, shipping, and all other property, for not a single dollar’s worth can now be taxed. Let it be understood that we are not opposed to selling government land to individuals and in this manner making them liable to taxation but we are opposed to subjecting it to the provisions of an aet by which a corporation may assess the general government to pay private speculation.

The next session of the Grand jLedge oi the Independent Order of Odd Fellows of the United States toil! be held in Baltimore, Maryland, on Monday, September 10th, 1870. The representatives from Indiana are: Wm. M. French, of Indianapolis; G. W. Jordan, of Attica; John T. Sanders, of Jeffersonville, and Thus. Underwood, of Lafayette. Grand Sire Farnsworth u at present detained in France on account of.the political troubles which renders it difficult for a foreigner to obtain a passport. It is mentioned as a singular coincident eonneoted with the preparations for war in Europe, that the nations which sympathize with France are those whose state religion is the Roman Catholic faith, while the allies of Prussia are Protestant countries. Many talk of the war as likely to result in the destruction of the temporal power of the Pope, soon to be followed by the obliteration of his spiritual influence. Considerable activity begins to be manifested in the cattle market and speculators are scouring the county for stock thinking the war in Europe may increase the demand for beef and yield them large margins. We see no reason why our farmers need be in a burry to sell for a few weeks, at least, as there is plenty of feed now, and splendid growing crops. There is talk of a re-union of the 9th Indiana Veteran Volunteers, to take place the 19th day of September noxt, the 9th aniversary of Jtheir organixation as a three years’ regiment, to be holdcn at Laporte, where these old soldiers first pitched their tent. Wc hope that success will now crown the efforts being made. —Mishawaka Enterprise. : - ts-- .. - While at Wanatah last month we had the pleasure of meeting with several of our old comrades and found thorn unanimously in favor of are-union. We heartily seoond the proposition. Editors Union: Will you please insert the following questions for some of your readers to answer? Why is it that when a man is elected to county office twice or three times he is an aspirant for any office, especially for treasurer? Would it not be a good thing for the people of Jasper county to create an independant treasurer’s office on a small scale for the benefit of retiring county treasurers? Enquirer. - We give the foregoing questions publication simply because the author appeared anxious to sec how they would look in print. We think any voter has a right to be a candidate for office and his friends may vote for him if they see proper.— The propriety of seeking re-election to office is dependant upon the aspirant’s popularity. Artemus Ward would have called the last question “sarkasm”—it amounts to nothing.

Beautiful Pinks.

This item is written. Wednesday afternoon, while the thermometer on the side ot the wall in front of ns shows 98° of heat. A man who will write when the heat is that thick must want to write badly, and so we do. The subject is one which has to be written about when the weather or something forbids us to write about anything good. What we call “beautiful pinks” is the young man who lounges on the streets, m the stores, at the hotels and saloons while his father is away at work. There are several of them in this city. While their fathers and mothers work hard every day of their lives the “pinks” are never seen earning one cent.— What a disgrace! Let these young men be spurned. Let them be hissed until they will leave the city or go to work. A young man, in good health, too lazy to work is about the meanest thing that breathes. A kicking, balky mule, a dog covered with fleas and too lazy to scratch is not half as mean as a tobacco-chewing young man who sits on the corners all day while his father is hard at work.— Anderson Herald. Just so! You hit ’em square that time, Hardesty, but “pink” or no “pink” who wants to work with the thermometer at 98°? Your “beautiful, pinks” are also sensible pinks this hot weather whether they chew tobacco ©r not.

IbMe Hoofland’s German Bitten, Hoofland’s German Tonic, Hoofland’s Podophyllin Pill, Hoofland’s Greek Oil. HOOPLAND’S GERMAN BITTERS, A Bitters without Alcohol or Spirits of any kind Is different from all others. It Is composed of the pure jnices of vital principals of Roots, Herbs, and Barks (or as mediclnslly termed, extracts), the worthless or inert portions of the ingredients not being used. Therefore, in one bottle of this Bitters there is contained ns much medicinal virtue ss will befonnd in several gallons of ordinary mixtures- The Roots Ac., used in this Bitters are grown in Germany, their vital principles extracted in that country by a scientiflc PDemist and forwarded to the manufactory in this city, whero they are compounded and bottled. Containing no spirituous ingredients, this Bitters is free from the objections urged against all others; no desire for stimulants can be induced from tbeir use, thoy cannot make drunkards, and cannot, tinder any clriumstauces, have any but nbenflllcial effect. HOOPLAND’S GERMAN TDNIO, Was compounded for those mtinclincd to extreme bitters, and is intended for use in esses when some alcoholic stimulant is required In connection with the Tonic properties of the Bitters. Each bottle of the Tonic contains one bottle of the Bitters, combined with pure Santa Cruz Rub, and flavored in Buch a manner that the extreme bitterness of the Bit’crs is overcome, forming a preparation highly agreeable and pleasant to the palate, and containing the medical virtues of the Bitters The price of the Tonic is $1.50 per bottle, which many persons think too high. They must take into consideration that the stimulant used is guaranteed to be of a pure quality. A poor article coild be famished at a cheaper price, but is it not better to pay a little more and have a good article? A medicinal preparation should contain none bnt the beat Ingredients, and they who expect to ob tain a cheap compound will most certainly be cheated.
