WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 1,1871.

A Movement in the Right Direction Below we give a very significant telegraph dispatch of this morning: "The Daily Enquirer of Cincinnati, the leading organ of the Democracy of Ohio and a recognized representative of the uncrompromising wing of the party, will to morrow publish an article expressing its preference for Hon. Thomas A. Scott, of Pennsylvania, as its candidate for the Presidency. The article discusses Mr. Scott's peculiar fitness for the candidacy at length, the principal point being as fol lows: "In order to succeed, the Democ racy must select a man who can obtain a largo vote outside of the party, and at the sarno time receive the cordial support of the organization. The Eastern, Southern and old Border States can bo carried for any fair man, but some of the large Middle and Western States must be secured in order to succeed. Colonel Scott, being strong in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, may be said to occupy a position analagous to that of James Buchanan in 1857 Pennsylvania holding the key to the Pres idential position must, therefore, be consulted. Colonel Scott having never been closely identified with politics, would neither awaken resentment nor arouse prejudice if placed at the head of the Presidential ticket."

The Enquirer argues that Colonel Scott's particular fitness for the Presidency is manifested in the wonderful executive ability which has made him the most successful railroad manager in the country. It assumes that Edwin M. Stanton was a good judge of men, and that his selection of Colonel Scott, in the most difficult and trying part of the war, as his Assistant Secretary, indicated a high appreciation of his fine and unequaled administrative talent. It believes that Colonel Scott thoroughly sympathizes with the movement to restore the Government to its old Democratic constitutional basis, and concludes by saying that it has no feeling in the matter, save that of securing a victory fortho friends of constitutional liberty, and unless Grant can bo beaten in 1872, tho cause of free government in tho United States may be considered lost."

The Indianapolis Sentinel, in referring to this, uses the following language in its issue of this morning "The Cincinnati Enquirer, as will be noticed by the telegraphic column, comes out rhis morning in favor of the nomination of Thomas A. Scott, of Pennsylvania, as the anti-Grant and anti-Administration candidate for the Presidency, upon the grounds of his remarkable executive ability and great popularity in tiisown State. The Enquirer says that in 1856 the vote of Pennsylvania was necessary to secure the election of a Democratic President, and that that necessity nominated Mr. Buchanan. As in that year, the vote of Pennsylvania is now necessary for tho defeat of Rudicalism in 1872, anc\ with Scott for a candidate, it thinks that vote can be secured. There is no doubt of the ability of Mr. Scott to successfully discharge the duties of tho Chief Executive of the Nation and, although a Republican, ho would subordinate partisanship to the faithful discharge of any public trust confided to him, looking alone to the public welfare, tho interests of tho whole people and the honor and glory of the nation."

Thomas A. Scott, thus starts in the Presidential contest with the influence of two powerful Democratic organs. Always a Republican, and a man distinguished for great administrative ability, he certainly would make a President that an American citizen, the American Government, and the whole American people would not be ashamed of.

Having felt, in a degree unparalleled in the history of this Republic, the want of Executive ability at the White House, the time has certainly arrived, when a man of commanding talents should be selected to be the chief officer in this Government. We have had a surfeit of second-rate men, aud men having not one particle of fitness for the places they occupy.

If the Democratic party throughout the entire conntry, will show such willingness to act in the future for the public good, as is now shown by the Cincinnati Enquirer and Indianapolis Sentinel, the time is not far distant when a man of intellectual qualifications, and one who thinks more of his country than of party, will staud at the head of our National affairs.

The Democratic State Ticket. With roforence to the coming State Convention tho LaFayette Dispatch, in answer to a ootemporary which asks what the party is going to do about the renotnination of some of the present State officers, says: "Weli, tho best thing to do about it is to make an entire change in the pro-

ftranuno.

Let ns have a 'now departure

is about time that we had oeasod sterotyping the State or any other ticket, aud return to the good old Democratic rule of rotation in office. How will that work?"

We do not know whether it is necessary to have the change entire or not, but unless the Democrats make some changes in it we are persuaded that the Republicans will change it entire for us, whether we are willing or not.—Evansvitle Courier

We agree with the Courier. A partial change is necessary to the success of the Democratic party at the ensuing election, aud in view of the effort that is beiug made in certain quarters to blind the peopleas to the true condition of affairs, we conceive it is our duty as a Democrat honestly desiring the success of the party and its measures, to enter our protest to the nomination of at least two of the present State officers. It is charged and generally believed that Mr. Shoemaker, Auditor of State, was instrumental in defeating the law enacted by the Legislature for the distribution of the School Fund to the several counties of the State. The fund" amounting tor* nearly $700,000. He is now drawing interest on that money, appropriating it to his own selfish use, instead of hon« estly accounting for the same. Pocketing annually between §25,000 and $30,000 that rightfully belongs to the school children of the State. Mr. Shoemaker's excase, the only one that he' can possibly give, is that his Republican predecessor did the sauie thing. He evidently forgets that the Democratic party was placed in power to remedy such abuses. If the Democrats of Indiana bad known that Mr. 8hoemaker proposed to follow in the footsteps of his Radical predecessors, in ap-

undoubtedly have been defeated in the nominating convention.—Mount Vernon Democrat. ,j sjNo party In this State can reasonably aW 1 H,

hope tosucceed with any candidate who, while holding an official position which enabled him to do it, loaned the school funds of this State, and put the accumulated interest, or any part of it, in his individual pocket. That is an unpardonable sin, for which the people of this

after understanding it, have no forgiveness. That fund is too sacred, has been too long in accumulating, is of too much importance to the children of this State now, and to those who are to come after them, to be suffered for one moment to be trifled away, and fall stealthily into the pockets of dishonest officials. The man into whose purse one dollar of this money can be traced, be he high or low, must stand aside in the politics of this State.

We have it from Attorney General Hanna's own lips, that the papers are about completed, and in a few days he will arraign before the judicial courts of the county all those irrespective of persons or party, who are accused of appropriating to their use, any part of this sacred fund. To this court we may then shortly look to learn who those dishonest officers are, and if Mr. Shoemaker is one of them, he must stand aside, or the people will push him aside.

THK Express has a three-column communication this morning from "Jennie Ferris," in which the GAZETTE comes in for a little abuse.

The other day we received the following very interesting epistolary communication from the same source:

TERRE HAUTE,

Oct. 30, 1871.

Messrs. Hudson & Rose, Proprietors and Publishers of the Terre Haute Daily Evening Gazette: biRS—In your paper of about the 15th of August, 1871, there appeared an article slandering my character, under the caption of "That Bright Summer J^and—The World, the Flesh and tho Devil."

What I want at your hands is, that you, in as public a manner, and in a proper way, retract the slander, and thereby save me the trouble and expense of vindicating myself through tho legal channel, as provided by the laws of the land. An immediate reply is expected.

JENNIE FERRIS.

As Mr. Dickerson, the city editor of the GAZETTE has been absent from the city since we received the above and will be absent some days yet, the Madam will have to content herself with our silence until his return, for we are not in the least posted in relation to her grievances, as Mr. D. has had the entire handling of that thrillingly interesting subject. When he returns, however, we pledge the fair medium that her case shall be fully and properly attended to. In the meantime we hand her prayfully over to the tender mercies of Dr. Von Vleck, who, we understand, will attend to her case, with special and peculiar interest at Dowling's Hall to-morrow evening.

Law Libraries Burned at Chicago. The Chicago Tribune says there is probably not a single collection of law books left in that city which has any pretension to be called a library. It is doubtful if even in the whole city a complete set of the Illinois Reports could be gathered together. All were swept away by the flames. The Tribune adds, and its confidence is doubtless well founded:

:iWe

have no doubt if the profession at large knew of the utter and universal prostration of the Chicago bar, in regard to libraries, the bar of the country would only be too ready and willing to come to relief, and contribute books or money toward founding in our city a law library to repair our loss. The Law Institution, an incorporation under the management of the most reputable and responsible members of our bar, would be the means of making such liberality most secure, permanent and effective, and of the most immediate and general service." An appeal issued by ex-Chief Justice Wilson, of the Superior Court of Chicago, says that the legal profession of the city includes about five hundred members, most of them young men with small means, devoting from year to year their surplus earnings to forming a law library. A large number of libraries thus collected were worth from ten to twenty thousand dollars. He also suggests that the bar of the country contribute law books for the relief of the uufortunate, and that the bars of London, Edinburgh, Dublin, and other cities of Great Britain correspond and act in concert in procuring English, Scotch and Irish reports and legal publications.

A Blessing on Churches and Theaters. O for a diamond-pointed pen to catch up all the sweet truths, the noble selfsacrifices, which this fire has brought to light! What heroic achievements More than we know—not more than angels chronicle. Let us waste no more tears over Chicajp. She is not dead but sleepeth. Hope is characteristic of that community. Manhood is struggling up in Chicago to-day. Men are digging through ashes to lay hot foundations Is not manhood better than gold? This spectacle is making the country rich and oh the noble examples of love The Queen of England, from her imperial throne, flashes an order to Canada to empty the storehouses of blaukets and send them to Chicago. That touches my heart. There is more in those blankets to bind Cauada and Great Britain to our hearts than all England's muskets, and her ships of war. In our late war there was some feeling aroused between England and this country. She has tendered the other sides of the cord now. The city of London gives 1,000 guineas from its own treasury. Thank God, there's one city in the world that's got 1,000 guineas to give whose treasury is not completely empty. Churches aud theaters combiue in the noble work. God bless the theaters! The whole world is marching to one tune, the drum stops, and the heart of love beats, and that's the music we're marching to to-day. Henry Ward Beech er. I

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 38,

We shall throw open to the public, the large extension to our store which has been in course of construction during the past six weeks. Upon the morning of that day we shall inaugurate

A GRAND OPENING CELEBRATION SALE

that will eclipse anything of the kind ever before heard of in the West. As we say this our minds naturally run back over the eighteen months of struggle with and triumph over, the outrageous Dry Goods Monopoly with which we have had to contend. But under the banner on which we have written, "All goods sold for Cash," "No High Prices," No big profits," "Courteous and Honorable treatment to all," and through the splendid support given us by the people, we have not only triumphed in the contest, but our business has increased so rapidly that we have been compelled to build up the Entire Depth of our lot, thus giving us in our three floors and basement, by far the largest Dry Goods establishment in this part of the State. It is clear that the masses of the people are with us and that they appreciate our efforts to give them the

BEST OF GOODS AT TIIE LOWEST PRICES!

This great growth in our business has been right in the face of the most pessistent and malignant libels in the power of the "Dry Goods Ring" to utter. In recognition of our unparalleled success and, as an expression of our confidence in the future, we shall upon

SATURDAY, OCT. 28,

make afresh onslaught upon high prices. To this end we shall place on sale over

25,000 Spools of a celebrated make of Spool Cotton at 3c a spool. 25,000 Spools- of Coats9 best six cord Spool Cotton at 5c a spool. 5,000 y'ds of genuine Merrimack Prints atst and lOcts. 5,000 y'ds of genuine Cocheco Prints at 9 and 10 ets. 5,000 y'ds of best Sprague Prints at 9 and 10 cts. 5,000 y'ds of best Pacific and Garner Prints at 9 and 10 cts.

The above stock of the very best prints, are the most beautiful styles we have ever offered. Every new and pretty pattern of the season is among them, including an elegant assortment of English robe figures. These handsomest styles of the best prints we could not now buy ourselves, for less than 12£ cts. at wholesale in New York. The other stores are not generally keeping them, but where they do they are usually charging 15 cts. a yard for them. 5,000 y'ds of good Common Prints at 5 cts. 5,000 y'ds of Better Prints at 6 cts. 5,000 y'ds of Fast Colored Prints at 8 cts.

We have been preparing for this great sale for more than six weeks, aud our New York partners have been scouring the market for special bargains in new and ele gant goods with whicly to inaugurate our opening. Our entire stock of JiEW FAIL. DRESS GOODS,
