WE have largely given up thib issue of the GAZETTE to the consideration of tlie really important question of what men we shall have to rule over us as city fathers. It has been said that it is a wise child that knows it own father. The experience of dwellers in cities has been that very frequently, the people knew comparatively little of the men whom they elected for fathers of the municipality. We have done our best to give an account of all the men who are candidates for the City Council We have not black washed any of them, for the reason that we believe, without exception, every single individual who is a candidate, is a gentleman, in the fullest and fairest sense of the word. We do not believe the city would go to the bad if either set was elected. Wherever there are no decided personal prferences for tlie Republican candidate, the GAZETTE'S advice would be to vote for the Democratic ticket. We advise this because the city election will have some s%ht effect no •lie National election next fall, and wc presume the
THE LITTLE .JOKER I3f POLITICS.
A very r^reat deal of useless twaddle has bee*, given publicity "through the press ©mHhe-' alleged duplicity of j.Landers towards'Uie independents, sir of the Independents towards Landers, 'ar of each to batik, ©r of both to cadh.-as the reader may jttefer to have it. There is somethimgaaiiazing in the way some people havew. sticking tlieir heads in ash heaps, iiaafl .sfifecting not to 1ivve seen what thervftsid their heads'to 'lieep from seeing. 'Starting out with a '"tilare of trumpets 'about ifts m'.mense burden (of pfincipie, which, doifbtless, deceived a .few -simple-minded :an3 honest-hearted fftreracial philosophers«ft" the future, the •greenback Independerir movement was a !barre-faced and brazen attempt to procure :a p»litical abortion. It was conceh-ed iinttirickery and brougUi forth for a trade. 'Bh«y sought in their mteeting to nominate: for Governor s. possible candidate the DemocraSic convention, hopiing that their nominee would, by hook or by crook, receive ne^wectable indorsement Shcre. Then tbeai .expected to strut dbout the State House as il he was their Governor and had teen elected by them, us an impecunious free lunch fiend will pick liis teeth bcii*t a first-diiss hotel t© delude passers-by auto a belief that lie, has had his dinner lii/ere, and so prop a waning credit. A dhance to pick a few crumbs of comfort tfrotn the public table ni^ht also have biooxaied and blossomed in their yearning breasts.

JUDGE BILLON'S SENTENCE OF McKEE.
Persons who were present at tfee tencing of McKee. say that the scene was one wheh Nast's pencil should perpetrate. As Judge-Dillon proceeded to state.succwiEvely the various mitigating circumstances in the crime of McIGee the friends of the prisoner began to take heart. When he spoke of the lightness of his crime as compared with that of tire Government officals who had of of-
Without a Democratic indorsement, riiaey knew their candidates, one and all, wiefe still born. If tbey did not, everj--' ifcody else in the State #id.
Aside from this, the foe ad center of the .movement, Mr. ''Jeeni*~ Buchanan, other•srise, "The Plan," hoped by having nomjj-/ jsated the Indianapolis tCongreasrna^&r Governor, he would be elected„®jiK successor in Congress.

and two years imprisonment in the county jail, the very highest penalty allowed by the law. The effect on McKee and friends is said to have been like that one would notice in a Turkish bath room the attendant should make a mistake in turning the stop cocks, and shower the parboiled bather with a froez" ingmixture instead of hot water. udge Dillon, we'have our misgivings, is something sf a practical joker, and like Joey Bagstock is devilish sly"' about it.
A LETTER FROM LADDERS.
He declines the Iiil«iilcnt Nomination and Defines His Positien.
The Indianapolis papers of this morning contain tlie following correspondence between the Hon. Franklin Landers, and the Chairman of the Independent State Central Committee. The Independents have been nervous ever since the Democratic State "Convention over the attitude of the "Ptg Sticker," and have been anxiqus to know whether or not he was really their candidate for governor.
Out of-this anxiety grew the following correspondence. It is severely formal, and explains the situation of affairs to a nicety. But we detain the reader.
RT ss' LETTER TO LANDERS.
ROOMS STATE CENTRAL COMMITTEE, OF THE INDPPEXDENT PARTY. INDIANAPOLIS. IN». April 24, 1S76. To the Hon. Franklin Landers:
DEAR Sir—Since the Democratic Convention of last Wednesday, the 19, some doubts exist in the public-mind a* to your attitude toward the Independent party of Indiana as its nominee for governor. I deem it but just to yourself and to the Independents that such public assurances be given by you as to your status and intentions as will relieve both yourself and the Independents of this state of all reasons for embarrassment or misunderstanding.
I am very-truly yours, GEORGE W. RT ss,
Chairman Independent State Central Committee. LANDERS'S L-:TT!:R TO RI\SS.
IndianAPoLts, April 24, 1S76.
Major George W. Russ Chairman Independent Central Committee: DEAR SIR—I beg to acknowledge recept of your note of this date asking wlieth er I desire still to remain at the head of the Independent state ticket as the nominee of that party for governor, and' wlieth er I will make the race as' its standard bearer in the coming campaign. While profoundly grateful for the confidence reposed in me by the Independents of.Indiana, who honored me with their nomination for governor. I must say that as I chose to submit my claims as a candidate to the convention of the party with which 1 have been identified all my life, in justice to the many friends who so earnestly supported me in that convention, I can not now consent to run as the Independent candidate. Permit me also to say to you, and through you to the Independents of Indiana, that had I received the nomination of the Democratic convention, I should have made my canvass, so far as the question of finance and currency are concerned, upon the declarations of the Independent platform, and upon my past record upon those questions, rather #ian upon the declarations of the late Democratic convention, which I can not indorse. Mv well known views upon tlie currency question I believe to be grounded qn true Democracy, and of those views I abate nothing. I ain, with great respect, your obedient servant,

feeling is all-but universal that Grantism needs a rebuke that will niade thieving and thieves unpopular for a generation to come. -Again it is in a measure incumbent on Republicans who desire to have the Na: tiorfai party ^purity itself and put hones :men forwtu'd, to vote the Deruocratk cirt" '•tioket.

In writing up tlie advertisers in Terre Haute who can pen something attractive, the GAZETTE of Course devoted -some considerable space to W. W. Payne, of Foster Bros., but the item was unfortunately "pied" in the forms and did not appear. It is produced below:
Prominent in this circle of gentlemen who wield facile pencils aye, and bloody ones, too, for they are always slaughtering prices, is Mr, W. W. Payne, the gentlemanly manager of Foster Brothers extensive dry goods house in this city.
Mr. Payne has, indeed, a difficult position to fill. Mr. D. N. Foster, former head of the house, now the editor of the Grand Rapids Post, Mr. Payne's predecessor, is a man not only possessed of considerable literary ability, but of native talent for this particular kind of literature. He made a reputation for the house and it takes a very strong man to step into his shoe?. It is sufficient encomium to Mr. Payne to say that he has done this successfully, llis advertisements are sharp and pointed.
D. C. Greiner, of Terrfr llaute, forBially of this county and vicinity, is a Republican aspirant for the nomination cf Clerk in Vigo county.

If there is such a thing p^rfectioiv in the butcher twt. Joe Rupp h:is certainlv attained that distinction. lie has spent many years at his calling^ and his wide experience enables him to judge of the quality of beef or mutton which an animal intended for slaughter will yield, at a glance. Thus is why his patrons never find any thing but the tenderest and sweetest and best of meats at his market.
Ruppp is always supplied with the best of everything in his line, and his prices are as low as it is possible to make them. Everybody knows where his place is located, on Main street near Sixth.
The trains of the past few days have brought to J. B. Lyne, wholesale liquor dealer on Main, opposite the Terre Haute House, a qurntitv of the best and purest whisky from Robinson countv, Tennessee. In addition to this, which is an extra fine lot, he has some Tennessee Peach and apple brandy. Lyne's established reputation for selling the best article in quantities from a few gallons up, will be sufficient guarantee of the excellence of this last invoice.
The soda fountain at the establishment of Mr. N. Katzenbach, on Sixth street, opposite tlie postoffice, is by all odds the largest and most expensive in the city It occupies as much i*pace as an ordinary house, and requires the constant attention of one or more -clerks. The soda water from this fountain is always cool and fresh and as the warm days approach, the number of people who visit this superb establishment grows constantly greater. You who are fond of a good cigar wiil be interested in the fact that Mr. Katzenbach keeps the very best cigars of all grades, which he sells at marvelously low prices. Give him a call.
By the middle or last of next wftk, W, S. Grant, the proprietor of the Terre Haute House bar room and billiard hall, will be able to remove into his new room, one door east of where he now is. His quarters will be fixed up in elegant style. He will "be pleased too see his old friends in the new place.
On this evening, the Tputonia saloon and billiard hall, C. A. FERA, proprietor, will indeed be a festive scene. A free lunch of rare excellence will be spread and the stoppers drawn from the best liquors. The proprietor cordially invites the friends of the house and others to be in attendance.
Notwithstanding his troubles with the Ku Klux, Captain Sejlers, the east end stove merchant, is able to pay strict at tention.to his business. -. His. assortment is, at all times kept well up. East end ers, and others, will find it to their advan tage to buy theiir stoves and tinware and get their guttering done with him.
Sixth streeters are very fortunate' in having Jho. Chambers there with his grocery. Chambers sells for cash, strickly and as lie has an excellent trade he is enabled to sell cheap and dovote much time than formerly to keepe his stock up and in always securing the bst patroniges Chambers when you ..want to buy cheap for cash. ,.
The improvements on the soda fountain at BUNTIN & ARMSTRONG'S drng store are almost completed, and it is expected that next week the machine can be started to work. This fountain is justly celebrated in TeJre Haute. The apparatus provided for washing and keeping tumblers cool, is admirable. Vichy, Bethcsda, Blue lick, and, in fact, all well known mineral waters, both foreign and domestic, will be placed on draught.
Ladies are invited to call at the retail branch of T. H, Riddle's wholesale millinary, see the low prices on hats, the taste and beauty in trimming and we feel assured their judgement will lead them to purchase their hats, and also their notions and fancy goods at 151 Main street.
