REPUBLICANS ATTENTION! As this is the last issue of the TxLBPHOXs before the election of township officers, we desire to urge upon all the necessity of electing the Republican Trustees thronghoat the eeuaty. This is the first great step that should be taken in the great campaign of 1884. A pure

ballot is all that the people want. Neither party oaght to want success by unfair means. Why is it

that Chairman McDonald wants the Democrats to be sure and elect the trustee? Why does he attach so much importance to the' office of Trustee? Why doos he not issue orders for the election of justices of tile peace? Why limit it to trustees? Clearly there is an ehject in view, and that is to manipulate the trustee's office for political purposes. This shoald be sat down on by everybody, irrespective of party.

It has labored hard tbeir production? jMatson knew he to secure a fair ballot in tho . South was playing the tractor to his con- here a Republican for in of govern-

sutnents. i - In another column of this issue is published an article on the political sentiment in Southern Indiana. From the article and from general observation there seems to be no donbt but that Hon. James G. Blaine is the choice for President this year, as he was in 1876 and 1880 after Indiana men are oat of the race. The Tjslepuokb was for Blaine in laeo. is for him to-day, and is for J31aue in 1838 if he is not nominated in Chicago, June next. In the last

two conventions Blame was the choice of the delegates from Republican States, and it now looks as t'loneh he '.vould be the choice in 1S84. The Democratic Central Committee ntet last Saturday and organized for the campaign of 1884. An effort to repair the damages of two weeks ago was partially successful, and according to the Telephone's advice. Bro. Feltus was again brought into the fold and made secretary of the committee a necessity, as there was no member of the committee who knew how to write to the bosses. Lon. Rogers was chosen Chairman over Eli Millen, who received S3ven votes. Though the efforts at harmonizing look successful, vet beneath the surface the battle of the "ring" and "anti-ring" rages. The fact that this committee, constituted by amass convention, took it upon itself to add anew man,(JIr. Feltus) repudiates the action of two weeks ago. jx committee is generally considered the creature of the assembly that ippointed it, and if it has a right to add to, has it not the same right to take from, or entirely re-constitute? The fact is, the Democratic Central Committee, like everybody else, saw that their convention of three: weeks ago was a mistake, and that its ''snubbing" Bro. Feltus, one

Let every Republican go to the polls on election day. Don't fail to be there. Remember that important interests are at stake. Remember that a pure ballot is at stake.

Mr, Worral further says that "the people's interests have been grossly neglected by men who were elected to look after and guard them," of course referring to Graham, Buskirk, Miers, and others all Democrats who have been elected to look after the people's interests in the Legislature, much more than a Republican paper has ever charged. M r. Worral al so deals a hard blow at three Democratic treasurers in Brown county (in this district) who succeeded each other and were all defaulters when he speaks of "a defaulterer of the people's sacred, sweat-stained taxes, who has desDoiled vour treasury
