TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 13,1872.
THE musty old journalistic antique specimen on the cornerof Sixth and Ohio in its issue this morning says: "The effort of the Democratic press to make it appear that the Convention oflast Saturday was unfriendly to Grant, can only be successful with those who are Ignorant of the facts."
By the "Democratic press" it was intended to refer to the GAZETEE. Our dear old neighbor has persisted in calling! us a Democrat ever since we started the Daily GAZETTE, and uttered an independent thought. All its stock in trade against us has been"Democrat,Democrat, Democrat." Well, we were a Republican in this city, when such fellows as control the columns of the Express, and f?it on its tripod, were in their political swaddling clothes, ami had not the courage to open their mouths and bray.
But the Terre Haute Journal of this moniiug declares, on the contrary, that we have gone to the Republican party, "horse, foot and dragoon." Which is right of those two eminently wise and peculiarly smart journals, we will let our readers determine. No'one can ever accuse either.of them of changing one way or the other. Meu who have no opinious of their own, never change. The old adage that "wise men change their opinions sometimes, but fools never," seems to fit their case to
i*
dot.
The Journal would butt its brains out against a stone wall for the mere love of doing it, and because no other person in the world would be fool enough to do so while the Express, not having much brains to butt out, will stand still and refuse to move fvrn. century, thereby hoping to win the reputation of being consistant. Neither of these journalistic fossils have the least idea that the world moves that the times are progressive that men are progressive that paries are progressive that many of the old party issues are forever settled that new issues are springing into life that the mocratic party is about to take a forward movement, and that the Republican party of Vigo county has taken an advance position, and shaken from its soared and war-worn garments a clique of political barnacles who have, step by Btep, dragged her down to her present weak and enfeebled condition. Under their mismanagement the Republicans of Vigo couuty have lost eyerything. The Congressional district has been secured to the Democracy, and they have both the judicial districts. There is but a shad of the old Republican strength left in the couuty,and the little ring which has heretofore endeavored to hold it together, have become so odious, that under their management it was disintegrating every day. At last, however, the time come, and on last Saturday they were overthrown, and the Republican party of Vigo county is much stronger to-day, by reason of it.
Terre Haute and Brazil,
while they are doing their utmost to dis courage the construction of our road, are boasting daily of their immense advantages over us in the matter of cheap luel.— 2nd. Journal.
You are in error, Mr. Journal, when you assert that Terre Haute is opposed to your narrow-gauge railroad. Instead of being opposed to it, we are in favor of it, and by the time you lay the last rail at the point you intend to stop over the coal fields, we will be there ^fth a road from this city, to meet and connect with you. We are a railroad people, and if a narrow-gauge can be built by which coal can be furnished cheaper than on a wide gauge, you may rest assured we will appropriate that advantage also. You build your road from Indianapolis to the coal fields of Clay couuty, and we will extend it from there to this city and then if you can carry coal fifty miles as cheap as we can fifteen, Indianapolis is as good a point for the manufacture of iron as Terre Haute, but if you can not, then it is not. Do you understand that logic?
IT is said that some Republican friends had to set up with the "proprietor" of the Express all Saturday evening and give him small doses of Mother Winslow during the night. He, however, prefering something stronger, whisky was substituted, and he is now able to s?t up. If he is not put on the Executive Committee again it is thought he will relapse, and if he is, the Republioan party of Vigo county will be greatly the loser "Wnether he is or isn't, the amount of brains he brings to bear on anything he takes hold of, can be easily crowded into the skull of a deceased snipe.
MR. LUCIUS RICE now has it in his power to do great service to the Republican party, by selecting first-class and popular men to act as the County Republican Executive Committee. The great complaint has been of the utter inefficiency of some of the old Committee, and the unparalleled selfishness of others. We hope the "Deacon" will not underestimate the importance of this duty.
Now,IF the Republicans of Vigo county will make an entire new Executive Committee, and place its destinies in the hands of entirely new men, it will stand a fair chance to again come into power in this county. (Jnder the old regime there is not the least possible hope. 1
WE heard one of our most far-seeing citizens say this morning, that were he a large real estate owner here, he would advance the price on his property fifty percent, and he would get it in a year or two. He says Haute were never so flattering, and no city in the West presents so many inducements to men with money, to invest. There can be no doubt but our city is on the eve of a giant stride forward, and that man is a fortunate one who takes "time by the forelock" and pitches in.
thVnrosnPPts" 7,t Terre
THERE was much cross firing on the streets yesterday between the Grant and anti-Grant
Republicans. The little ring
who have heretofore endeavored to control the political affairs of the county, and have successfully controlled them in favor of the Democracy, And that they have lost their grip, and feel much like the boy who let the bird go.
THEcommuflication of "Ex-Mechanic" in to-day's issue, is quite spicy. He defends his side of the case well. Our columns are open to all who have something to say in relation to the action of the Republican Convention, or on politics generally. We may, in a day or two, review "Ex-Mechanic" editorially.
A LIVE Hoosier Republican expressed himself, yesterday, as decidedly in favor of Gen. B. F. Butler, as his first choice for the Presidency. He said he intended to vote for a man of brains for that exalted place, or not vote at all.
Eair Play.
Editor of Terre Haute Gazette: I read with some surprise your editorial in yesterday afternoon's GAZETTE, and regret as much as you possibly can your inability to be present on that occasion. If you had been there you would never have written your yesterday's editorial, as I cannot think you would willfully falsify the action of the Convention, as your want of knowledge of the facts in the case led you to do. You state cor rectly that the Convention "refused to in struct delegates to the State Convention in favor of President Grant, and also refused to declare that he was the first choice of the Republicans of Vigo county." But you convey a false impression in regard to that refusal by your subsequent remarks. The reason why the Convention refused to instruct delegates was the fact, as there stated, that such a course had never been persued before—that the delegates should be left, untrammeled and free to act as their best judgment should dictate when the Convention assembles at Indianapolis on the 22d of February.
Well and eloquently did Colonel R. W Thompson express the sense of the meet ing, when he said "If I were called on to express my sentiments to-day, as to the best man to select as the candidate of the Republican party, General Grant would probably be tnat person but what would be my opinion in one week, one month, or next July when the Convention shall meet in Philadelphia, is another and differeut thing. Mighty changes and revolutions of sentiment may take place in that time, and an entire change of programme and leaders might be necessary, under the peculiar circumstances of the political necessities of the hour." Most of the other speakers' remarks were to the same effect.
The "ins," as you are pleased to term them, had nothing to dowiih thelastresolution that was presented for the action ot the Convention—as their whole programme of resolutions was unanimously adopted by the Convention without one dissenting voice. Mr. Minshall himself having previously assented to them as "perfectly satisfactory." Every oneought to know that your presumptions "about orders" are all bosh. A further proof that you misrepresent the feelings of the Convention is shown, in the full endorsement by the Convention, of the administration of public affairs by General Grant and his Cabinet,as is shown by the passage, by the Convention, of the last resolution as amended, as follows: jResolved, That the Administration of Grant and Colfax has fully redeemed all its pledges and has proved a complete success in every respect.
What General Grant or any other man if he had sent "orders" could have asked more full of approbation than that, I am at a loss to say. I do not think words could well be selected to express a sense of approval more strongly. The puff to C. W. Barbour, Esq., is entirely out of place, and be is clear-headed enough to appreciate such bloviating in reference to him, at its true value, for he felt when he saw how flat and dead bis proposition fell iu the Convention, that it was "too late" in the campaign for that plea to have a feather's weight.
As to "makiug a virtue of necessity," the first resolution amounted to nothing, as it was fully determined before the meeting of the Convention, that those great bug-bears, the Federal officeholders, should have nothing to do with the movements of the people in the Convention. If my statement is questioned Mr. Minshall, who brought forth so many imaginary d—ms, according to your editorials, can answer whether my statement is true or not. Mr. Burnett was compelled to act to acertain extent, as he did, from the fact that he was Chairmau of the County Executive Committee, and by virtue of that position had to take the initiatavive in the Convention until a change was made by the Convention it self. He could not well do less, aud certainly demeaned himself in a manuer to command the respect of ail rightthinking, unbiased men.
EX-MECHANIC.
Patronage, Ignorance a: Reform.
and Civil SerVice
A private letter to the New York Eve ning Post from a gentleman now in the Government service at Waehington, makes the following prediction: "I fear that Civil Service Reform has already been condemned to death, and patronage and ignorance will be its ex~ ecutioners. Patronage will not give up its privilege of appointing ignorance, and ignorance will not forego the right of being appointed."
Napoleon remarked that in every great battle there was a critical moment when the troops of each side were disposed to believe them elves beaten, and when victory depended entirely on the tenacity with which the respective forces are held up to their work. The Civil Service Reformers, after six years of agitation, have gathered considerable strength, and have made an armed reconnoissance. The movement has developed an enemy, intrenched and in considerable force, in both houses of Congress, in the departments, and among professed politicians. The enemy is not found in any one man, or set of men, so much as in the desire to buy and sell office for political services.: Whoever becomes tainted with this itching to make merchandise of the public offices, whether as vendor or purchaser, may be counted on as instinctively a foe to Civil Service Reform. Every man who wants to get an office, for which he is unwilling to contend on the ground of fitness, but demands as pay for political services, and every man who desires to give the office to him without hindrance, as a means of compensating for political services, are alike against Civil Service Reform. name of these is legion.— Chicago Tribune.
IN discussing the Geneva arbitration question, the
tone
mark sorae
prospects of Aerre
march
of the German press is
decidedly in favor of the American view. In case England goes to war with Uncle Sam, what will become of the island of Heligoland, which she filched from Den-
hundreds of years ago? Bis-
will b© likely then to call the at
tention
of her Majesty's Government to
his rather peremptory note of a few months since, on the subject of that little rock-bound island.
THE Hon. Lyman Trumbull, who is a native of Connecticut, spent two years in Portland, when a young fellow, engaged in teaching a district school. It is said that he was enamoured with the grace of ayonnglady of that town, but her father, a man well-to-do in the
worlH,
would not
consent to let his child marry a young man whose prospects in life at the best were then but ordinary.
Progress of the Revolution.—A new light dawned upon the world with the introduction of PLANTATION BITTES twelve years ago. Drastic purgation went out—restoration and renovation came in. The eyes of the people were opened to the great fact that the way to cure disease is to strengthen and support its victims, not to place them at its mercy by depriving them of the little strength they have. It soon became evident that as a means of infusing vitality into the feeble sy-stem, regulating the secretions, curing indigestion, and reforming a uilious habit of body, no medicinal prepara tion then known was at ail comparable to the new restorative. Since then hundreds of attempts have been made to rival the Bitters. They have all failed, aud the GRAND REVOLUTION IN MEDICAL TREATMENT, which was commenced in 1860, is still iu progress. Nothing can stop it, for it is founded on the principle, now universally acknowledged, that physical vigor is the most formidable antagonist of all human ailments, and experience has shown that PLANTATION BITTERS is a peerless invigorant, as well as the best possible safeguard against epidemic diseases.
A Beauti.nl Woman.—The perceptive faculty of women is usually keener than the same phrenological organ iu men. Women know that beauty rather than genius is worshipped by the sterner sex. A man may talk of the latter to his ladylove, but the keenness of the woman knows that he is thinking of the former. Women are fond of admiration hence one of their longings is »o be beautiful. The grand secret of female beauty is health the power to eat, digest and as^ simiiate a proper quantity of wholesome food. Take VINEGAR BITTERS. It will cleanse the stomach, tone the vital organs, give a peafect digestion, purify the blood, clear up the complexion and produce a state of mental and physical electricity, which gives symmetry of form, bright eyes, white skin, glossy hair and a genuine type of female lovliness, which no cosmetic can produce.

It Means Complete Annihilation of the High-priced System.
I S A A I N N
We have bidden farewell to the year 1871. was a good old year, lor it gave us
A Complete Victory Over the Dry Goods Ring!
Still, with faith in 1872, we"welcomed tbe new year and entered into the field strengthened by the prestage that always comes in the wake of
A O E I O I
Determined that the High-priced Dry Goods System should never rear its head again iu 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!
It seems to be as well known to the public as to ourselves that our store, though creatly enlarged last fall, and now running back a depth jof one hundred feet, 1S STILL^INADEQUATE TO ACCOMMODATE OUR MAMMOTH TRADE.
SOMETHING MUST BE DONE!
To enable us to obtain sufficient room lor our Spring Goods, else when the season opens we shall be so badly crowded as to be unable to do a profitable and business. We have therelore decided to place on sale immediately our ENTIRE SOTUK 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
GREAT MARK-DOWN SAIE!
Oar 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.
EJfTIKE STOCK! KOTHItf© HELD BACK!
In December last we bought a little too heavily ot Sprague, Merrimack, Pacific and Cocheco in dark colors. While they are just the tning for winter wear, they are not liubt enough ior our spring trade. We have, therelore, decided to place on sale our ENTIRE STOOK of
Cocheco, Sprague, Merrimack and Pacific Prints at 9c.
Yard-wide English Prints, worth 25e, at 12}£c. Common Prints, 5c. Fast-colored Prints at 8c. We shall los»e considerable money on these Prints, and other kinds of goods not suitable tor spring wear, but we are determined not to be overloaded with winter goods when the spring opens.
