Terre Haute on Saturday on any other afnoon, which conluins live telegraphic matter. It publishes also each afternoon the markets as sent to it, and to it alone, from Chicago, St. Louis, Cincinnati, Toledo and New York. These facts it will be well for you to bear in mind and \vi en you are in town and want to know what the latest news from aay point in the country is, or what the markets are, to buy a GAZETTE. Buy all the papers if you have the money to spare, but if you •can only afford to buy one and want tin that one to get live and fresh local, telegraphic and market news, then wait lor the GAZKTTEto be issued, ask the news boys for that and take no otLer, for in it and in it alone you will find all the news •up to date. If you have any doubts on this question buy a G7.ETTE the next time you are in the city and compare it with any other afternoon paper ar,d see it it is not the one that has telegraphic and market and local news up to dale, live and fresh. If this is as we state it act in accordance willi this suggestion and tell your neighbors about it, for the news of a good thing is worth spreading.

We will also be obliged to our friends if they will let their neighbors know what the Weekly GAZETTE really is as compared with any other papers printed in Terre Haute?

A vciy interesting article by ex-Senator Newton Booth of California on the ques4ion of "Presidential inability" will be i'ouud on an inside page of this issue of the GAZETTE. It was printed in the San Francisco Argonout, which is a Pacific coast counterpart of the New York Nation. Readers ot the GAZETTE will find it exceedingly entertaining. A parall el is drawn between the piescnt emergency in this country and a somewlia1 similar ca^e in English history during the time of George III. No one into whose hands this paper conies should fail to ail it.

REAR THIS IN MIND.

To its country friends the GAZETTE desires to say that when they are in the city in the afternoon they will find it to their interest to purchase the daily issue of the GAZETTK. It is printed at 4 o'clock *ac,h afternoon and contains not only the local news of the day but the full tele graphic dispatches of the Western Asso ciated Press—the greatest and uiost coin plete news-gathering agency in the world On Saturday a multitude ot papers are printed and hawked about the streets These papers arc printed for the most part during Saturday morning, and are made up of matter varying in age from one day to one week old. The GAZBTTK is the only paper printed in the afternoon in Terre Haute, and especially ilic only one of the many printed and sold on Saturday afternoon that contains the telegraphic news. It is printed later than the others in order that the latest telegraphic news as it comes over the •wires from Washington. New \ork and all important placcs in this country and in Europe may appear in it, and it is tin1 ,only paper offered for sale on the streets of

SENA-

In this issue of the GAZ.KTTK will be found full and satisfactory interview with Senator I). W. V'»orhees which that distinguished statesman very kindly accorded to a repiesenlative of Ibis paper The impoilance ot the questions discussed and the prominent part which Senator Voorhess, by virtue of liis office and his standing among his Democratic associates in tne Senate, will be called upon to take in the settlement of some ot them, combines to make his views a matter of universal iutere&t. As was to have been expected the Senator stales his opinons with a frankness characteristic of him and with an explieitness which leaves no doubt at* to his meaning.

Executive inability is a question of great moment. At any hour it may be nesessary for the power lodged with President Garfield to pass to other hands. How to determine ihe inability of the President, by whoai it shall be declared to have begun and ended, if happily the inability should i« temporary, are questions to which in Ihe-iiTst place the Senator makes answer. "While ilic reader is referred to tlie interview itix ihefuil stateirer.t of his position it is not in opportune in this place to refer more paitRular'y his lel'iuition of the.uionslrous assumption that the VicePresident is tlte judge of the President'? inability. It seemed at first as if Senator V-orh'-e* was unnecessarily elaborating his denial of (hat position, but the zeal with which in the past few days exSecretary «f the Navy Robesou naa maintained that idea, justifies his argument.

His e-timate of Chester A. Authur, •coming as it jes fiom one who has had an opportunity by personal contact and familiar knowledge of his histoiy to form an intelligent opinion, will be read with wide interest. His belief that in the event of his becoming President Mr. Arthur would be the tool of Mr. Conkling, J8 the deliberate Judgment of the GAEBTTB, and is doubt-

Mil

less a well deueloped fear on the part of all classes of the community—a fear which at times, when the President seems to be sinking becomes a nightmare and which very materially adds to the general alarm.

On the mooted question of organizing the senate and the election of a President of that body, which person will be Vice President of the United States, Senator Voorhces has very decided opinions These opinions will not only be eharcd and endorsed by ali Democrats, but as be fortifies them with argument, must convince the great mass of intelligent and conservative Kepublicans. A great deal has been said of late by emotional and unbal anced people about the Democrats in the Senate uniting with the Republicans to elect one of the latter to be presiding officer of that body. Senator Voorhees .shows that the first duty of the Senate upon assembling will be to elect a prescting officer. This is on the assumption that Arthur would then be President. Thij must be douc upon the first assembling of the body and must precede the swear-ing-in of Miller and Lapham. The Senate will at that ime be DemocraticThat majority will have been brought about, if the contingencies assumed happen, by the folly of Conkling and Piatt, Republican ex-Senators, and the crime of Guiteau, Republican campaign orator of last year. Senator Voorhces does not see, and it is difficult to understand how any one can pretend, that it would not be a premium specimen of imbecility lor the Democratic Senators to throw away the power ot their majority and elect a Republican to the presidency of the Senate. It does not occur to him, aDd it will not occur to any intelligent member of the Democratic party, that the best interests of the country can be subserved by their voting for a Republican. It would seem especially foolish for them to do so now, with a view to repairing an injury done to the Republican party by a pair of Republican madmen like Conkling and Piatt, and a Republican scoundrel like Guiteau.

If haply President Garfield shall live, as now seems altogether probable and as every patriotic citizen, in fact every decent man not a murderer in his heart must fervently hope, this phase of the question will come to naught. But should he die and Arthur succeed him, the successor of that person as presiding officer of the Senate will be a Democrat aud in all human probability will be Senator Bayard, whom SenatorVoorhees designates for the place by-virtue of seniority of service.

SECRETARY THOMPSON ON EXECUTIVE INABILITY.

In this issue of the GAZETTE will be found an inteeview had by a reporter of the GAZETTE with Secretary Thompson on "executive inability." No word of ours is needfed to commcnd anything Col Thompson may say to the attention of the reader. His familiarity with all questions ot constitutional law and political history clothe his utterances with an authority almost equal to law. In this interview he speaks of the much. mooted question of executixe inability and developes a fact in the history of Washington's administration, no publication of which has hitherta been made, and which is both curious and interesting. The critical condition of the President health makes this expression of opinion by an honored cabinet officer of the Dreviona administration, both timely and impor taut.

SUHSCUIISEKS of the GAZKTTK are requested to aid us in extending its circulation by getting their neighbors to take it. We will also be obliged to any of our subscribers who will send us the news from their neigliborhexxl so that it will reach here not later than Wednesday noon.

The GAZETTE'S market uy telegraph from Chicago, New York, Toledo, Cincinnati and St. Louis, the Indianapolis live stock market and the local markets are all features whieh are almost exclusively fouud in the GAZETTE and which are of valae to you. Will you tell your neigh, bors about these things and help us improve the GAZETTE, which is already the best weekly paper published in Western Central Indiaua or Eastern Central Illi nois.
