WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 31,1872.
Yice President Colfax.
We give in to-day's issue two articles from Indiana papers in favor of Mr. Colfax for the Presidency. The article from the Indianapolis Journal, the able and independent organ of the Republi can party in this State, is rather signifi cant. It has been asserted that the Republican party of Indiana is for the renomination of General Grant. If the organ of the party] is a fair index of its wishes, then General Grant is not the first choice of the Republicans of this State. And we are fully satisfied that he is not the first choice of the party in In diana, and we do not believe he can carry this State should he be nominated by the Philadelphia Convention. And if he can not get the electorial vote of Indi ana, can he be elected? This is an im portant question, and one which should command the present attention of Republican party leaders everywhere?
There are, most certainly, other men in the Republican party who can get more votes in this State than President Grant, and Schuyler Colfax is one of those men. Should he be the standard bearer of the Republican party in the coming contest, he would get, perhaps every single vote of the party in the State. No man is more popular, and none more deservedly so. Having passed through many years of political life, he stands to-day an upright, pure and honest man, without one stain of corruption or wrong on his garments. He is uncontaminated with the corruption of rings or lobby influences has neither taken nor given presents has thought more of his country's good than that of his own household has neither speculated in stocks or stone quarries does not spend his time at fashionable watering places, or with fast man, behind fast horses. As an Indianianj we may well be proud of Mr. Colfax, and the Republicans of Indiana, and of the nation, can do no wiser thing, than to make him their party leader for the great campaign of 1872.
Bill for the Improvement of the Wabash. The following is the full text of the bill introduced in Congress, by Judge Nib lack, on the 22d inst., for an appropriation to improve the navigation of the Wa bash river. The bill has been read twice and referred to the Committee on Com merce:
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That tbe sum of two hundred and fifty thousand dollars is hpreby appropriated out of any money in the Treasury not otherwise appropriated, to be expended under the direction of the Secretary of War in the improvement of the channel and tbe navigation of the Wabash river, including the purchase, repair and reconstruction of the locks and dam on the same near the mouth of White river Provided, That said locks and dam can be purchased at a price not exceeding their fair value, to be ascertained under such rules and regulations as may be prescribed by the Secretary of War.
SEC. 2. That a detailed statement of the several sums of money which may he expended under this act shall be communicated to Congress.
If that is all there is in the bill for the improvement of the Wabash, it is just as well that it be smothered in the committee where it now is. "Two hundred and fifty thousand dollars!" Why that will not draw half the snags out of the river bed will not repair and reconstruct the locks at the mouth of White river, and will only be flitted away, without doing the river, or the people in this valley one particle of good. If the Government intends to do anything for the Wabash river, let it be done well, and enough money appropriated to make a complete and finished job of it. $250,000 would no more than get ready to do the work. Don't tickle us with your penny whistle, Messrs. Representatives, but give us a full blast from the brazen coffers of the Treasury, or nothing. If the river is to be improved, let it be done properly—if a few politicians want a good fat job, why give it to them, but don't charge us with it.
THR approaching Republican State Convention in Indiana is generally regarded as one of the most important gatherings of the year, and the Indiana papers go so far as to say that it is only exceeded in importance by the National Convention. Its chief importance is due to the fact that sweeping changes are to be pressed on tbe old political machinery, and the Reform element demands thorough work and effective measures against' those men in the party who have, by dishonest practices, brought reproach to the Republican organization in the State. A dozen rings are to be broken, and new and pure men brought to the front.—N. Y. Tribune.
What the Tribune says in the above may be correct, and we hope it is. There are "sweeping changes" that ought to be made in the "political machinery" of this State, and old and well established rings should be broken up, and better men than those heretofore selected as leaders "brought to the front." To be certain that Indiana will cast her electoral vote for the nominee of the Republican party in November next, there must be an unexceptionable ticket selected for the voters in October. A few thousand votes lost to the Republican party, and the Democrats will carry the State and as the party has not one vote to throw away, the leaders had better act with great caution and ciiare ifa the coming State Convention. Thfcre must be a step taken In the
for
in favor of reform—reform in men and measures. No milk and water reform, but the genuine pure milk and pure wa. ter unmixed. No quibbling or deceptive sayiugs, but clear, explicit, positive declarations of what the party believes and intends to do. If this is done, the ticket will sweep the State if not, the State will be swept by a counter movement.
From the Mississinewa (Indiana) Monitor, J. 8. Jenning*, editor, January 26.
FOR
PRESIDENT—SCHUYLER COLFAX, OF INDIANA.
Colfax and the Presidency. In hoisting the name of Schuyler Colfax, at the head of our columns, for President in 18?2, we wish to do no injustice to General Grant, neither disrespect for his Administration. Grant mar.-haled his hosts and gave victory to our arms in the time ot our nation's peril. He was promoted to the highest rank of Generalship, and our National Congress even instituted a higher office (that of General of tbe armies of the United States) to do him special honor. Having honored him to the greatest extent as a military leader, tbe great Republican party, not satisfied with this, promoted him to the highest civil office within the gift of the people. These honors were bestowed by a grateful people, grateful for the services rendered in time of trouble. These should satisfy the craving of the most ambitious.
We are of the opinion that a single term in the White House is enough, unless the incumbent be one of exceeding great merit, as was the case with the lamented Lincoln. We do not know that Gen. Grant has any special claim on the Presidency for a second term. We believe that it would be no discredit to him to retire from the race and favor the promotion of Mr. Colfax. More especially do we favor the selection of Schuyler Colfax as our standard bearer in the coming campaign because he is an Indianian, and his reputation as a statesman is not confined to the State of his nativity, but he is a man with a national rep* utation. His popularity is not confined to a State or to the United States, and we are of the opinion that we do not exaggerate when we say that he has a worldwide reputation, and one that is unsurpassed By any man of the present day.
An article in another column, from Mr. Colfax's home organ, the South Bend fiefjister, appears to insist that Colfax again accepts the nomination for the Vice-Presidency although in so doing he binds himself to a position that is a constant drain upon his resources. To force a poor man" into a position that fail3 to pay expenses, just because he is a faithful servant in that capacity, is certainly a doubtful compliment, to say the least. Better give him the Presidency, and permit Mr. Grant to retire with the honors aud competence already acquired by his prominent position. Unless we mistake our man, we are of the opinion that Mr. Grant would willingly retire and give place to so worthy a successor. If the people say nominate Colfax, Grant will say amen to it and so will Sumner, and Carl Schurz, and Trumbull, and Greeley, and Tilton, and B. Gratz Brown and Dana, and all Republican malcontents. With Colfax for a leader, we have a reunited Republican party in all its former glory and grandeur. We have a candidate of whom not even his enemies can utter a word of discredit. We have a candidate of whom Indiana is proud, the Republican party is proud, the people of the United States and the world are proud. We have a leader who is said not only to be an "honest man,"but a Christian. Who will be so unreasonable as not to favor tbe nomination and election of such a man to the Presidency at the next election? We are for Colfax, first, last and all the time, and until the National Republican Convention has decided otherwise we shall consider it our duty to urge his claims upon the people. Should the National Convention see fit to nominate him, the final result will be as sure as fate. Nothing but death can prevent his election.
We wish it understood, however, that we are not one of the number who propose to "go back" on General Grant, in case he receives a renomination. He would probably te triumphantly reelected, but the name of Colfax would harmonize, and control a support that Graut's would not, and we think his claims on the Presidency far superior to those of Gen. Grant for the approaching Presidential term.
ELSEWHERE we 0opy from the Mississinewa Monitor a strong article favoring the nomination of Hon. Schuyler Colfax as the Republican caudidate for Presi dent in 1872, and ask for it a candid reading. We have so frequently expressed our preference for General Grant, as matters now stand, that we can not be charged with the intention of creating any dissension in our ranks by giving prominence to the arguments which have led acotemporary to the conclusion that some other would be a preferable candidate, especialy when that other is an honored citizen of our own State, and one whom we so greatly esteem as we do Mr. Colfax. In the matter of selecting a candidate for the next campaign, as in every other item of party policy, there should be allowed the largest liberty of opinion and freedom of discussion. We can not, if we would, shut our eyes to the fact there is a determined and bitter opposition in certain quarters to General Grant's renomination. It remains to be seen whether those elements of opposition can be so organized as to endanger his election should he receive the nomination at present the peril does not seem to be imminent yet we know not what a day may bring forth, and a good many days will intervene before the meeting of tbe Republican convention in June next. The Monitor urges the fact, which will be conceded, that Mr. Colfax's nomination would harmonize all the seeming differences in the Republican ranks. For him the out-and-cut Giant men, the Trumbull-Schurz-Sumuer faction, and even the few so badly disaffected as to listen to the ravings of the New York Sun, could cheerfully and heartily unite. For him we should have tbe powerful aid of the NewYork Tribune, the Cincinnati Commercial, and other influential newspapers, which would be strongly tempted to oppose Gen. Grant, or at least refrain from giving him support, if Democrats should present some man not utterly odious to them. Tbe Cincinnati Commercial of yesterday, in an editorial commenting upon the article from the Mississinewa Monitor, says: "The question arises whether it would not be well, before permitting Mr. Colfax to retire to private life, to promote him to the Presidency just once. Would not the Presidential caudidacy of Colfax harmonize the Republican party
The suggestion is thrown out to tbe country for its consideration, and we can do no less, nor more, than to give it the benefit of a presentation to Indiana Republicans through our columns. We are certain that if Gen. Grant should see his way clear to withdraw from the canvass, as has been intimated he might do, the name of no man for his successor would awaken more enthusiasm throughout Indiana than that of Schuyler Colfax —an honored, beloved and trusted servant, who has been often tried and as often found faithful. The ovation he met in his canvass of the State during the campaign of 1870, as a candidate for Vice President, is an index of the estimation in which he is held by those who have known him longest and best.—Ind. Journal.

for
boys
who use
tobacco: "It has utterly spoiled and utterly ruined thousands of boys. It
t#nds to the softening and weakening of

the bone, and it greatly injures the brain, tbe spinal marrow and the whole nervous fluid. A boy who smokes early and frequently, or in any way uses large quantifies of tobacco, is never known to make a man of much energy, and generally lacks muscular and physical, as well as mental power. We would particularly warn boy?, who want to beanything in the world, to shun tobacco as a most baneful poison."
To those who are Bowed Down by Nervous Debility, and despair of ever recovering the vigor aud mien of manhood we earnestly recommend Dr. Walker's California Vinegar Bitters. Before they have finished tbe first bottle, they will feel the restorative principle at work in every portion of their broken-down systems and hope will spring up in their hearts. No case of Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Intermittent Fever, Rheumatism, Gout or Kidney disease, can resist this unequaled vegetable tonic which is unpolluted by any distilled or fermented iquor. 8dw4w

OUR POLICY FORESHADOWED.
It Means Complete Annihilation of the High-priced System.
I S O A A I N N
We have bidden farewell to the year 1871. We saw it die with many regrets. It was a good old year, lor it gave us
A Complete Yictory Over the Dry Goods Ring!
Still, with faith in 1872, we welcomed the new year and entered into the field strengthened by the prestage that always comes in the wake of
A A I O I
Determined that the High-priced Dry Goods System should never rear its head again in the city of Terre Haute.
Nearly Two Years of War Lie Behind.
Overmatched and exhausted the opposition stores have about deserted the field, and no longer attempt to follow us in prices or to dispute our leadership.
FIRST FLANK MOVEMENT FOR 1872.
Another Startling Reduction in Prices!
MT1BE STOCK!
It seems to be as well known to the public as to ourselves that our store, though fitly enlarged last fall, and now running back a depth of one hundred feet, LL INADEQUATE TO ACCOMMODATE OUR MAMMOTH TRADE.
SOMETHING MUST BE DONE
To enable us to obtain sufficient room tor our Spring Goods, else when the season opens we shall be so badly crowded as to be unable to do a profitable and satisfactory business. We have therefore decided to place on sale immediately our ENTIRE SOTCK of
Winter Goods at Less tlian Present Wholesale Prices!
There seems no other way out of the dilemma, and we invite the entire population of Terre Haute and the surrounding country to this

Our prices for Winter Goods will be the lowest ever known in Indiana, since the close of the great rebellion, and sale will be one of the heaviest blows the Figh-priced system has ever received at our hands.

In December last we bought a little too heavily ot Sprague, Merrimack, Pacific and Cocheco in dark colors. While they are just the tiling for winter wear, they are not light enough lor our spring trade. We have, therefore, decided to place on sale our ENTIRE STOOK of
Cocheco, Sprague, Merrimack and Pacific Prints at 9c.
Yard-wide English Prints, worth 25c, at 12^c. Common Prints, 5c. Fast-colored Prints at 8c. We shall lose considerable money on these Prints, and other kinds of goods not suitable for spring wear, but we are determined not to be overloaded with winter goods when the spring opens.

THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE
FOR 187S.
The consolidation of Italy, so long fragmentary and Impotent, into one powerlul State, with Rome us its capital the humiliation ot France through a series of crushing defeats, ending with the siege and capitulation of her roud aud gay metropolis the ex|.ulsion of the tourbons Irom the Spanish thione, auu the substitution lor them of a scion of he most liberal among royal houses the virtual abs-orp-tion «f the kingdoms of Saxony, Wuittemberg, Bavaria, with Baden, Hesse, the JBanse Towns, &c., under the lieadsnip of Pi ussia, into the tilumphantaud powerful empire ol Germany and the armirg of Russia to reassert her preponderance in the councils of Europe, or to prosecute her oiten po&tpor.ed but never relinquished designs on the gieai city founded by Constautine and the vast but uecaj iiig aud anarchical dominion of the Sulian,all combine to invest with profound interest the everchanging liases of our t.dli gs iiom the Old
World. THE TKIBUNE, through trustee coriespondents stationtd at ail points in Euiope where great movements are in progress or imminent, aims to present a complete and instructive panorama of events on that continent, and to mirror the priODg«-d struggle between middle-aged Feudalism and Ecuiesiasticisin ou the one hand and .Nineteenth Century skepticism and secularism on the other. Recognizing a ldvine Piovidence In all that proceeds and Is, it lcoks h'opefu'ly on lhe great conflict as destined (like our own recent convulsion) to evolve fiom stiife, disaster, and seeming chaos, a fairer future for the tolling masses of mankind.
In our own country, a war upon corruption and rascality in office has beeu innuguiuted in our city, whereuy tne government, ot our State had been revolutionized tnrough an Initial triumph of reform vmch surpaases the most sanguine anticipations, li ia morally certain that the movement tnus inaugurated cannot, in its progress, by circunibciib.u tu any party, bHt lhat ltd purifying innuence i» ue»« tined to be felt lueveiypait oi Uie'linlon, lebuking veij«iit, exposing loubery, wiesung power iiom poiiticia.s uy aue, ai.u coi.iiaiLg it in those worthiest aiiu fltte to wieiu It.
