PROHIBITION.

The 6erman Banner Expresses Its Opinions. Tbe Terre T'aute Battier, the German paper, pt iuts the following article concerning the ltrtier of Mr. Lee, one ot the Republican candidates for the Legislature, defining his views on the prohibition question:

This letter of Mr. Lee is certainly plain enough. It is, like the one ot Col. Hudson, a declaration that a majority, and should it consist of a single vote onty, has an absolute right to rob the minority of its personal rights. The two Republican candidates for the legislature in our county make the assertion, that tbe socalled popular sovereignty had always been a Republican principle, and thereby either expose their ignorance or the desire to deceive the people. Popular sovereignty never was a Republican principle, and had it been, the states of Kansas and Nebraska would have become slave stales. When Douglass attacked the Republican party, then in its infancy, with the cry, "Popular Sovereignty," it looked for a while as though he would succeed with his doctrine, as many Republicans, who were weak in their kne^ declared that this doctine was fa^ Horace Gteely, the gree abolitionist, showed a disposition for some time to join Douglass, ft was Lincoln who succeeded ia Overthrowing this false doctrine, by declaring in his debate wilh

Douglass that slavery was a wrong, and therefore, no new e'a'e with slsvery should be admitted to the Union.

There is a limit to popular sovereignty. The people have a right to decide certain doubtful questions but in regard to personal liberty, in regard to the question what one shall eat or drink, they have no right to make a decision. They have a right to enact license laws, to regulate the sale of intoxicating drinks, to fine dealers who sell to miners, habitual drunkards, etc., etc., to also fine heavy all persons who are found drunk in public. But they have no more right to stop the manufacture of intoxicating drinks and to prohibit moderate drinkers from using suoli beverages than the people of KansaB or Nebraska had to introduce slavery. If the people Ind a right to pass such laws, they .would also have the right to say whether a man may kiss his wife on Sunday, or decide other nonsensical questions. They would also have the right to take a vole on the question whether the two Republican candidates for the Legislature are sorcerers and should be burnt or not. What an unjust thing it would be to expose these two gentlemen to the daneer of being burnt, because we are sure that neither of them is a sorcerer.

After the explanations of Col. Hudson and Mr. Lee there is nothing left to tbe friends of personal liberty Who belong to the Republican party but to vote, man to man, for tne Democratic candidates, Messrs. Kester and Schloss. We admit the possibility of a Democratic Legislature to also pass the amendment, but even if this should happen, we will at least have the consolation that we have not been betrayed, like we were two years ago.

A MAN NAMED THOMPSON.

Who Attempted to Swindle Local Grain Dealers by a Bungling Scheme. From the Indianapolis Journal.

A very bungling swindle luis been at tempted in the lafet few days by a man named Thompson, living between Worthington and Terre Haute, but yesterday the scheme was discovered. Thompson is grain dealer in a small way, and has been accustomed to ship his grain to larger dealers in this city. The modus operandi of disposing of a car-load of wheat is this: The shipper gets the bill of lading, with duplicate, from the freight agent at the shipping point, and sends that with a dratt on the buyer for tbe value of the produce. If everything is all right tbe draft is paid at the local bank through which it comes, and returned. It seems that Thompson's plan was to draw for the amount with the original bill of lading attached, and then erase the word "duplicate" from the duplicate bill, and draw a second time for payment for the same wheat- In the case in question, consignments of grain were made to Closser & Co., and one or two other dealers in this city, and after receiving his pay Thompson attempted the "altered duplicate" dodge, but with poor success. The book keeper at Closser & Co.'s fortunately remembered tbe number of the car on the original bill, and noticing the number on the bill attached to the second draft to be identical with the fiist, refused to honor it. Because of legal requirement the Worthington bank brought a friendly suit, yesterday, against Closser & Co., for tbe second draft, to prevent its being paid at the wrong place. At latest accounts Thompson had not been arrest ed.

NOBODY WILL BELIEVE THIS.

But it is True.

Noah Hall dug out 1,137 stumps in eighty-seven days on Christ. Mayor's farm, seven miles east of town. He did it all with a grubbing hoe and ax without use of powder. This is an average of 140 per day. He received four cents apiece for them and earned $5.00 per day. Most of them were hickory stumps and required lots of work. Many men would starve to death digging stumps at $1 per day, but this man made money at' only four cents. One hundred and forty stumps per day would be big work for a party of men with liercules gunpowder, but one man unaided did that much. The giants of the past could have done no more and Noah Hall can go up to the head of the class. "V"

An Old Coin.

Henry Graham, the florist on south Fifteenth street, has an old Spanish coin bearing date of 1781, (a century and one year ago) minted during Ibe reign of Charles III. Mr. Graham found it thirteen years ago while digging in a garden he was tending in Philadelphia and has bad it ever since. How long it had slept in its gard bed in the City of Brotherly love, and JW it came to be there in the first place are mysteries among the many oihera belonging to tbe coin since it was minted over .a century ago.

VIGO'S GRADUATE. W

Bill Hicks Takea to Bnuil—Something Absut the Case Agaiaat Ma. An officer from Clay City brought op Bill Hicks late Saturday night and put him in jail for two or three hours while he was waiting for the train for Brazil. Hicks didn't like the Idea of being locked up in a cell (like a common jail bird!,) but the officers had little respect for his feelings and put him in by force. Bill is liable to catch it this time. He is under $1,000 bond and the Clay county officials show a disposition to push the case like a case against a criminal .ought to be pushed. Hicks was taken away on the earlv train Sun* day morning and is probably behind the burs by this time, wishing that he had confined his little pecularities to Vigo county and let Clay county alone.

Further particulars of this last robbery have been obtained. Hicks had iu his possession wb^u arrested bills of the exact denomination that Mr. Poney had previously described as being stolen fr^~ur him. Hicks roomed about a square from. Mr. Ponev's residence. ground

soft that nlfbt tracks of a I man's bare feet

dis&riirf the next

morning leading from Mr. Poncy'o porch out on the street and up to the very room of the noetural* visitor. Another negro, who roomed wilh Hicks, will testify that he awoke altout: 1 o'clock without Bill and that the latter came in shortly after, seemingly in a great1 hurry and very much clullui.

MR. TUELL BEATEN.

The Supreme Court Says He Will Hava Vi To Move His Road. The appeal case of "The T. H. & S. E. Railroad Company vs John F. Roedel," sa which has been in the Supreme Court for 4 a year or more, was decided yesterday.r The opinion was delivered by Justice Elliott. The suit was originally brought in the Circuit Couft of this county by John F. Roedel for the purpose of compolling Mr. Tuell to move his road off of First street. The judgment of the lower court was for the plaintiff. The supreme court has now affirmed this docision and the road will have to be moved. The residents of First street are very much interested in the final termination of the suit, as they have been laboring for years for the result that was attained yesterday.

Four houses were burglarized at Clay City last night. Clay City is a station on the T. II. & S. E. road, and is south of this city. One of the houses so bur-** glarized was the residence of C. W. Poney, from which $70 in money and other articles were taken., Three $ persons were suspected of the robbery and those three persons were promptly arrested this morning. They were Bill Hicks, who is slightly known here, another darkey, and a whit* man. The names of the latter we have been unable to learn. Wlion Bill Hicks was ar-, rested he had $18 in bis possession and a knife. Mr. Poney identified this knife as being tbe one "$ which was taken from his lionse the night before. In Hicks' room was

found $40 more, making a total of $58. He is now in jail and will be tried at Clay City. With the brazen effrontery?: ,!, that he probably has grained by his Vigo county experience he demanded a A speedy trial, and it is safe to say that he1 will get one and get his deserts, too.

Bill hasn't been so anxious for a speedy trial of his case up here, but then he probably has forgotten all about that, as% our courts have done nothing to remind sr him of it. We hope tbe conrts of Clay rv county will not fool with him as we have 'f been doing.
