INDIANA STATE SENTINEL.
PROSPECTUS FOR THE
COON SKINNER. VOLUME FOUR.

OOON OAlNNEn, AU1OmE IOOu'
The undersigned propose publishing another volume
of the Coon Skinner commencing about the first OF
May next, and continuing until the August election.
The Democracy of Indiana must remember that 1t
insufficient TO gain great victories, and take no
means to secure them good general will not allow
his soldiers to sleep upon their arms in the flushed
of success and be surprised by vigant foe,
their laurels torn from their brows and themselves
driven from the field In disgrace, scorned by ALL Our
last great victory must be secured and to tins end
exhort the Democracy of Indiana to be up and
doing" Of our own knowledge, we assure them that
we shall have not only the common home enemy to
contend WITH but their cohorts to be strengthened
by Hessian egions hired by the money robbed of our
own people. The latter viii be poured out with an
unsparing hand, 10 again throw our State into the
hands of the pluuderers of her means and integrity
Z We speak by the book.
The people of the country have elected President
Beyond doubt one branch of Congress viii be OF
complexion to operate with the President 1t now
lays with the people of Indiana to assist IN having
the other branch Of the political CASTE that all
branches Of our government may operate in unison
We have all seen aud felt the evils arising from df-
ferent state Of things and we have it in power
10 state that know Of large number of our oppo-
nents who have declared their desire TO see the whole
administration act together. While we admire these
professions, we must be nary. Promises made are
too often violated and while those of 1910, whose
name is legion, were so little needed, remem-
Der also that of that grea. Mexican Whg Santa An
ma while in the power of his enemies, and has ercUSe
afterwards made, viz "A promise made while in du-
rance Is void" We must then depend on ocn
strength, and, thank fortune we have it.
Among other issues to be decided at the next Au-
gust election, we may mention
Ist The election of United States Senator, in the
place of A s. White, whose term expired on the 50
OF the present month. Shall the State have voice
in the u s. Senate by electing democrat to act with
her present Senator! Or shall it be entirely hushed
by eectng one who will always vote opposingly and
against the administration This matter Will be
treated at length in the Coon Skinner
ID. Shall the next legislature, by having %hig
majority be enabled to extend to the Bank power to
issue shinpasers of small denominations during the
continuance of its charter! Or shall we have mix.
ed currency Of gold, silver, and 50 notes We car
prove that the Bank makes out of the people by
those shinplastcrs than by any other portion OF he
circulation.
Sd. Supreme Judges are to be elected, and al
averse to life Offices, must be that they only
be abolished BY electing Democratic Legislature
While we would intimate nothing against either the
qualifications, honor integrity of the old Judges
how humiliatng it is to suppose that the State o.
Indiana cannot produce their equals
18th. The aPpraisement laws viii no doubt bt
considered Those in favor of them only referred
here to whom and TO what party they indebted fo
the timely relief they have afforded to the honest poor
This subject VIII be discussed in the coming canvass
9TH A new apportOnment of the State VIII be made
All who are disposed to see justice dDne viii not b
inclined, hope, to sanction second edition of th
last vile and infamous gerTymandering. Let there b
no Parkcrs and Judahs In the next Assembly.
9th. The State Debt. This viii be one Of th
subjects earnestly to be considered. Shall we agar
place the State in the power of those who hayr
brought her to her present humiliating position
Who fsttened plumber derived from the toline
sweat and blood Of our laboring population Wht
have but to signify to their Wing friends desire 70
relief from paying their just obligations to th
State, and 10 they In the councils Of the Stat
voting in their own favor Who that had tn
management of the affairs have brought us to b
bye-word among States and Nations but is nov
rolling in wealth Are they Democrats or Wings
1t easier destroy than to build up If then it
the leading Wings some six or seven years to rui
the State, surely it is not asking too much t
desire halt of that time to remove the rubbish an
show the progress of operations.
In addition, the Coon Skinner win confirm Ii
current news of the day, and such selections as
be instructing and amusing.
