THERE is scaroely any need of going through the formality of an election for County Treasurer, for it is conceded*by nearly everybody that honest, plain, oldfashioned Jimmy Cox will get a seoond term.

A Sound and Brilliant Speech From Him Last Night.
The Issues of the Campaign Presented by Coi. Maynard and Mr. Debs.
Mr. Debs' Words of Advice to the
Laboring Men of This City.
from Saturday's Daily.
There was a large crowd at Dowling Hall last night to hear CoL J. B. Maynard, of Indianapolis, and Hon. Eugene V. Debs, of this city, Grand Secretary and Treasurer of the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen, address the citizens of Terre Haute on the political issues of the day. The large audience was composed principally of laboring men from the various shops and foundries of the city, and the organization of the meeting was composed almost wholly of laboring men. There were a number of ladies present. The Young Men's Democratic Club made a splendid appearance and turned out in unusually large numbers, there being about 300 persons in line. Capt. W. P. Hoctor commanded them, ana for a club that has had no experience at drilling they marched exceedingly well and kept good time. The Ringgold band headed the escort and, under the leadership of Prof. Breinig, furnished some of the best music ever heard on the streets of Terre Haute. The escort marched to the Terre Haute House and escorted the speakers of the evening to the hall.
The following is the organization of the meeting: PRESIDENT.
Jasper Ward.

The appearance of the speakers on the platform was greeted with applause. S. R. Hamill, chairman of the Democratic county committee, introduced Mr. Jasper Ward, a well-known and prominent cooper and a representative of the industrial classes of the city, to preside. Mr. Ward on coming forward
waB
received with loud applause. In a few neat words he introduced Col. Maynard to the audience. The Colonel is a man of nearly three score and ten and was formerly one of the principal editorial writers on the Indianapolis Sentinel. He has a strong voice and his speech abounded in statistics and facts going to show that the Democratic party had given power and wealth and territory to the country when it had control of the government and that it was a friend of the laboring man. Under Democratic administrations the United States acquired 2,084,479 square miles of territory. CoL Maynard devoted himself to the land question and declared that it could not be unduly magnified. He spoke of the vast domain of territory voted away by Republican Congresses in the past and to the good work of Democratic Congresses in reclaiming the land back for the people. The Democratic party was a poor man's party and was of necessity the laboring man's party. The laboring men of the country are the poor men of the country. He would say to the working men of the people: Organize. They should organize so as to better their condition. The Democratic party was in favor of the repeal of all laws restricting the free action of labor and the enactment of laws by which labor organizations may be incorporated, and of all such legislation as will tend to enlighten the people as to the true relations of capital and labor. The Democratic party in its platform declared that it was in favor of all legislation "which will tend to the equitable distribution of property." He held that the labor organizations of the country were animated by a desire for
the It was "the keynote of every labor organization in this broad land. The equitable distribution of property meant equitable wages. Labor is organizing to better its condition and to secure a more equitable share of the wealth it creates. As President Cleveland had well observed: "The laboring man, bearing in his hand an indispensable contribution to our growth and progress, may well insist, with manly courage and as a right, upon the same recognition from those who make our laws as is accorded to any other oitizen having a valuable interest in charge, and his reasonable demands should be met in such a spirit of appreciation and fairness as to induce a contented and patriotic co-operation in the achievement of a grand national destiny."
Col. Maynard also discussed the tariff question. Tariff meant tax. He never heard of a man complaining that his taxes were low. A low tax was preferable to a high tax. Men are universally opposed to taxes. To avoid taxes men list their property at half what it is worth, thinking thereby to escape tax ation. Men commit perjury to escape taxation. What was the Republican idea as to taxation? It was for high taxation. It taxed the millionaire's diamond stud 10 per cent, and it taxed the poor man's salt 100 per cent. The Democratic party said put more tax on the rich man's diamond and less tax on the
SRepublicansalt.
oor man's They tell us that the high tariff keeps wages up to a satisfactory point in the United States. Has a Republican high tariff maintained wages in this oountry at a point to satisfy laboring men? Every labor strike, every labor disturbance, gives the direct lie to that statement.
Col. Maynard devoted a considerable part of his speech to state politics, defending the present Democratic state administration as one that should be retained. He also attended to the liquor question.
At the conclusion of Col. Maynard's speeoh Mr. Ward introduced HON. EUGENE V. DEBS, 's and as that gentleman*—in whom every Terre Hautean takes an honest pridestepped forward he was loudly and enthusiastically applauded. It was a little while before he oould proceed on account of the enthusiasm. It could be seen that the audience was impatient to hear him through Col. Maynara's speeoht The audience gave Mr. Debs the closest attention and what he said made a grea. impression, as his high and important relations to the laboring men of the comutry would justly entitle him to receive. Mr .Debs said it afforded him great pleasure to meet his fellow-townsmen of Terre Haute on that occasicfn to discuss with them a few important issues of the present canvass. The most important of these questions, to his mind, was that in reference to the state government. It is now in the keeping of Democratic hands, and the question was, shall it be retained in their hands or shall it be turned over to the Republican party?
IF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY
had mismanaged the affairs of the state he was willing to concede that that party should be turned out of power. But if it had been faithful to its obligations to the people if it had enacted wholesome and good laws for the benefit of the great industrial classes of the state, then he would insist that it was only right and proper for the Democratic party to be kept in the administration of state affairs. [Applause.] The best way to determine that point was to examine into the character and kind of laws that had been enacted by each party when it had control of the state legislature. In 1874, for the first time in ten years, there was a Democratic legislature elected and the General Assembly of 1875 was Democratic. The legislatures of 1877 and 1879 were likewise Democratic, so that the Democratic party
RETAINED POWER,
so far as the law making went, for an uninterrupted period of six years. If the Democratic party had been such a vicious party as Republican campaign orators and organs charged anyone would admit that then the Democrats had the occasion and the opportunity of demonstrating that fact. In 1880 the Republicans elected a majority of the General Assembly. It was his intention, Mr. Debs said, to briefly review the acts of these legislatures with a view to showing which party was most favorable and friendly to the workingman. [Applause When the Republicans took charge of the General Assembly in 1881, after the Democrats had had uninterrupted control of it for the six years preceding, they practically ratified and indorsed the work of the Democrats, for they did not repeal a single law passed by the Democrats in those three Legis-, latures. That was doing pretty well for a visions party, wasn't it. [Laughter and applause.] A higher compliment could not be paid the Democratic party. Now, let us take a look at the
REPUBLICAN LEGISLATURE
of 1881. That legislature passed at least five odious and unjust laws which subsequent Democratic legislatures were called upon by the people to repeal. [Applause.] The first of these five was'tne law known as the "circuit court ditch law." Under the operations of that law a large assessment was levied on lands without the 'owner's knowledge and in such an unjust manner that many poor persons were rendered houseless and homeless under the operations of that act. The Democratic legislature of 1883 modified and at last repealed that law altogether. [Applause.] The second of the five was the act
ENABLING ALIENS
to acquire and hold lands in the state. That law was a most odious one and was in the interests of the large landowners of Great Britain and the old countries. It was a law in the interests of the same men who today hold Ireland helpless in their clutches. The Democratic legislature wiped out that obnoxious law and it Will never again appear on the statute books while the Democrats retain ascendancy in the legislature. [Loud applause.] The third of the five laws I will speak of is "the road supervisor law." That was a law that took

roperty." {the road work out of the hands of the people of the several road districts and placed it in the hands of a salaried official. The Democratic legislature 7 REPEALED THAT LAW and put the road work back into the old hands. [Applause.] The fourth was an act providing for the settlement of decedent estates by law and was so constructed that estates had to be settled in a so-called legal manner it took every dollar in the estate to do it. The Democrats changed that law. [Applause.] The fifth was the fee and salary bill. It is strange to hear Republican orators and organs loudly denouncing this law today, when it is
THEIR OWN OFFSPRING, ..F
[laughter when it is a Republican law, put on the statute books by a Republican legislature. [Applause.] I wonder if these men ever stop to think of this. I suppose not They are so hard up for campaign material this year that they actually attack their own flesh and blood. [Applause.] Well, I want to Bay that the Democratic legislature amended this act in a manner that materially reduced the fees of officials. [Applause.] Now we come to the Democratic legislature of 1885. I say here tonight that that legislature did more for the suppression of monopoly in the state of Indiana than any previous legislature in the history of the state." [Applause.] Mr.^Debs went on to enumerate the
VARIOUS MEASURES ENACTED
for the benefit of the laboring man, the mechanic, the railroad man and the miner, giving fourteen bills that were passed that directly affected and helped their interests. That legislature, he showed, made a law making laborers' wages a preferred claim making a rigid law for the protection of the miners working in the mines of the state, under the operations of which the liability of accidents and loss of life is greatly lessened making it an offonse for corporations to compel employes to contribute for the support of libraries, etc making it an offense for a telephone company to discriminate in favor of one person as against another prohibiting the importation of
CONTRACT LABOR
into the state from the old countries to compete with home labor making it a penalty for any one to employ a child under twelve years more than eight hours a day making railroads fence their tracks [James T. Johnston voted against a measure of this kind when he was in the State Senate] making it an offense for telephone companies to cnarge more than a certain fixed price for the use of their telephones, thus striking down one of the most gigantio monopolies ever known in the history of the state an act providing for the enrollment of all the soldiers of the state who served in the late war, and an act giving to persons a
LIEN FOR CLAIMS
for work performed on companies. Continued Mr. Debs: "These are some of the laws passed by this Democratic legislature. The other night Col. Thompson—the "old man eloquent"—a rn»n for whom I have the kindest respect—made some statements in this hall that were calculated to mislead the public as to the condition of the state treasury. By imputation, at least, he placed the present State Treasurer in the attitude of a defaulter. I was a member of the last legislature and I know something about this matter. There was not one word of suspicion breathed about the condition of the state treasury until Gov. Porter read his farewell addiress retiring from office. Then he insinuated that perhaps something might be wrong in the state treasury. Now the law gives the Governor power at any time, and without the knowledge of the State Treasurer, of entering his office and demanding that an investigation take place. But Gov. Porter
DID NOT COMPLY
with the law. He waited until the last moment of his term as Governor and then he took occasion to cast some reflections on an honest and capable official. I will say that the Democratic legislature, on the motion of a Democratic member, appointed a committee to investigate the condition of the state treasury and that that committee found every dollar belonging to the state, either in cash or in collateral, in its place. [Loud applause.] I have the honor of a personal acquaintance with Mr. John J. Cooper, the official named, and I will stake my reputation on it that when his term of office expires every dollar will be accounted for. [Applause.1 I do not believe that such unfounded charges as these are right, even in politics. Now we hear a good deal about
THE GERRYMANDER
also. I am one of the criminals who helped to enact that law. [Applause.] I confess that it isn't exactly a checker board. Col. Thompson made some allusions to the gerrymander in his speech here recently. He denounced it and called upon all the people to rise up in their might and rebuke it at the next election. Now, let us consider the source that this complaint comes from. It is the Republican party. CoL Thompson made some referenoe to the Republican gerrymander of 1873, but he said nothing about the Republican gerrymander of the state in 1867. What a strange oversight. [Laughter.] I happened to see a copy of that gerrymander the other day. It looked as if the state of Indiana had entered the prize ring against a South Carolina cyclone. [Laughter.] It looked as if the Republicans were trying to shove one end of the Democratic party in
LAKE MICHIGAN
and the rest in the Ohio river. [Laughter.] Senator Harrison makes the gerrymander his principal issue. Where was Senator Harrison with his denunciation of the Republican party in 1867 and in 1873? [Applause.] What Senator Harrison is kicking about is that he knows that his term as United States Senator is soon to be cut off short. [Laughter and applause.] Just look at New York state. Why the Republicans have gerrymandered that state so badly that although the Democrats have repeatedly

carried the state by overwhelming majorities they have not had the legislature in years, and New York is represented, and has been for along time, in the Senate by Republicans." On the
TARIFF QUESTION
Mr. Debs spoke at some length and his remarks were followed with the closest attention. He said he had formerly been inclined to favor a high protective tariff such as Mr. Blaine advocated, but investigation into the subject had convinced him that a high protective tariff was good for one thing—protecting the rioh man and making him richer and making the poor man poorer. A high protective tariff was a protection to monopoly. Under its operations the palace and the howl grew up side by side. Under a higfi protective tariff the tramp era was inaugurated. Under a high protective tariff, from 1873 to 1878, there were 51,264 failures in this country, aggregating $1,320,964,132. The men who make this country great and glorious are the men
a

and make their earnings by the sweat of their brow. They need protection, and they need it badly. For himself, Mr. Debs said he wanted to see the time come when the laboring men would reoeive a just and fair proportion of the wealth and comfort of this country. He wanted every laboring man to have his own home for his wife and children and to be comfortably clothed. He believed that after a little while, when the Democratic party got thoroughly in possession of the government—that these inequalies would be righted. [Applause.] Mr. Debs then said he wanted to say a word or two about
THE CANDIDATES
on the Democratic ticket. The state ticket is composed of good men. The county ticket presents some of the strongest and best men that we have among us. They are all thoroughly competent men and well-qualified for the duties of the various offices. Mr. Debs said the legislative ticket was particularly a good one. Mr. Kester would well represent the farming interests, and Mr. Con Meagher was taken right out of the hot furnaces at the rolling mill. When Mr. Debs mentioned the name of Hon. John E. Lamb the audience broke into loud cheers, which were renewed several times. As soon as Mr. Debs was able to proceed, he said: "I can say that
JOHN E. LAMB
is as sure of being elected as that the sun will rise tomorrow morning. [Loud cheers.] He has once represented us in Congress and while there I can say for him that he stood up manfully for the laboring meD of this district. He is the laboring man's friend and they should be true to him. [Loud applause.] In this brief speech I have endeavored to present to you my views on certain important questions. When you cast your votes cast them on the merits of the candidates and the principles they represent, and when the evening of the 2nd of November comes along let the news be that will be flashed over the telegraph wires that the Democracy of the great state of Indiana have achieved a glorious victory. Ladies and gentlemen, I thank you for the attention you have given me. [Applause.]

This is a feature of the book worthy of special attention—a feature peculiar to this book. Any good medical work will tell you what to do, if you know what the disease is, but the difficulty is, you cannot tell from the book what it is. To find out, you are obliged to send for a physician! The books are written with this view written generally in the interest of the profession. With "Our Family Physician," you can tell, yourself, what the matter is,just as unerringly as a doctor could. In this respect the book differs from all others nd even if you have others, you need this book also.
It is a book that, after using six months, no parent would part with for $50.
It will save from $5 to $50 every year in any family. We have had a ppecial edition of this standard and well known work, elegantly bound, 544 pages—the same style in which in book stores it sells for $3— printed for use by this paper as a premium. During the coming four months we shall offer this valuable book, together with a year's subscription to the WEEKLY GAZETTE for $2.00.
In other words, we will sell you the book for two thirds its regular established price, and give you a years subscription to the WEEKLY GAZETTE for nothing!
We do this of course to build up the circulation of our paper, which we are determined shall go regularly into 20,000 families before June 1, 1887.

If the book saves calling a doctor only one time, that one saving will amount to more than both book and paper cost you!
You cannot afford to be without such a book! If the book is to be sent out of Terre Haute 20 cents extra must accompany the order to prepay postage or express charges.
Old subscribers paying up all back accounts can get the book with their new subscription at $2. We propose to give our old friends the benefit of every good thing we have. We wish each one of them would lend this copy of the pa|er to a neighbor who is not a subscriber.
