From warrtcix.

a few days since we received large club
of Subscribers for the Campaign Journal, from
a town in Warrick county, with letter from
the friend who got up the club. lie says
sold Warrick is right" and that the right kind
of tale will be heard from her at the cleo
ton. The Wings there are rousing to ac-
on. They have already Ield County Con-
vention, and nominated an excellent ticket,
which they are determined to lend their warm
est support. We appeal to them to set an
example to the Wings of few neighboring
counties. The "Pocket," however, is rising.
From every quarter we receive the most en-
couraging news. The Wings are organic
ing every where. They are forming clubs in
some understanding conventions in other
paces-panting Scott poles here and there
and stirring up that old feeling Of enthusi-
asm, which is torrent locofocoism cannot
oppose. Go on in the good work. Take hold
of the oars, young men, and help the old folks
in rowing the Locos up Salt River.

OTThe editor of the Journals compli-
ments to the editor of the Times" and begs
leave to say the "editor of the Journal" had
mt the slightest intention of insinuating or
charging that the "editor of the Times" was
II the remOtest degree supported by "sub-
scriPtions other than those which strictly per-
tain to newspaper business" or that he is
supported more luxuriously than editors gem
orally by any kind of subscription. The ''ed-
itor of the Journal also promptly acquits the
"edltor of the Times" of having accepted any
"gratuity," so far as he knows, from demo-
cratic friends, and more especially acquits
him OF the charge Of having ever thus been
tempted by the democrats of Evansville
Therefore, the Editor Of the journals pro-
found regrets that the "editor Of the Times
can't understand the English language, as no.
thing else but such ignorance or wilful per-
version of plainly written language, could
have led him to suppose the "editor of the
Journal had made such assertions against the
'editor of the Times" 1t is Row hoped these
two mighty men of Gath will open their eyes
and find out, ''sure enough it wasn't either
of US" The Times man can now 90 to
sleep again.

an CANNON.

Locofoco papers are very fond of publish
ing the names of persons who nine cases out
of ten most probably never existed, or al
ways have been anything else but Wings
as persons who have refused to vote for
Scott and yet call themselves Wings. 1t is
something very singular that IN all these
publications, the persons live in some very
distant places, and never happen to be resi-
dents of near vicinit.es to where the publica-
ton It made Now the fact is, these state
.ments are all humbug, or in nineteen eases
out of twenty they are SO. 1t is raSe OF
Democrats to plant courage in the hearts OF
the Pierce party, and to endeavor to still the
WING enthusiasm now at work over the
country. 1t won't do. The Wing party are
united on Scott, and they will elect him.
Democrats may rave and abuse and Willy
but they might as well give in, for Scott Is
after them.

PORTRAIT PAINTlNG.--We take pleasure
in calling attention to Dir. Poindexter's adj
vertisement of Portrait Painting. The por-
trait of q citizen he has just painted, appears
TO us, who are no Judge of such, work. to be u
at least a triumph so far as the likeness is
concerned. Mr. P. intends remaining here
but short time, and as we have had no pro-
iessional portrait painter among US for long
time, it might be well for citizens to take ad-
vantage Of the occasion. "A good portrait i.
q pleasing possession for any one, and an i'll
valuable "relic of the past" when years have
winged themselves into eternity.

"Bonaparte's" communication arrived too
late, as when received the subject upon which

before pronounced an improbable affair to
the Democracy. We like "Bonaparte's" sug-
gestion at the close of his letter, and we will
back it.

cation enclosing ode on the death of Henry

Quite a Ccntrast.-Readit.

The State Journal in speaking of the ex
travagance of the late Democratic Legisla-
ture, gives these facts and figures. We hope
Wings and Democrats will continue the read
ing of th,se extracts as we publish them:
We have shown by figures that cannot be
disputed that the present revision will have
cost, when completed, Si44,27I ii. Other
items of expenditures are yet to be added to
this expenditure to make out the amount of
the Peoples money used mp by the economical
party in pewer. DR.. Ellis, the Auditor of
State, estimates the ordinary expenses of the
present fiscal year at SlG3,5O0. Sc his Re-
port, page 65. OF this amount $4,000 is put
down as the probable cost of the last session
OF the Legislature. Deduct this amount from
the $4,000, and we have S53, 800, to be
aided for expenditures not included in the
above list OF item. That amount added to
Sl44,27l Al and YOU have ONE HUNDRED
AND NINETY SEVEN THOUSAND,
SEVEN HUNDRED AND SEVENTY
ONE DOLLARS AND FIFY-FOUR
CENTS, as the expenditures of the present
fiscal year!
How do the people like such economy as
that! This is sought to be all covered up by
the syren cry democracy! Democracy!r'
To find out who are the real friends of an
economical administration of State affairs,
turn to page 40 of the report of the Auditor
of State OF 1923, which gives the expen-
ditures for 1912, the most expensive year
under Gov. Bigger's administration, when
the Wings had power. The whole expendi-
ture, including many items growing out of
extraordinary exigencies, only amounted to
Sl0S,S43 u. 1t will be recollected that at
the session of the Legislature of 1912
committee to investigate the transactions of
our Fund Commissioners were raised in the
Senate and House OF Representatives.
This greatly increased the expenses. There
were about one hundred witnesses, summone d
from all paris of the State, examined, whose
testimony and the other documents of that
year made over twelve hundred pages. Of
the course this greatly increased expenses of
the present administration during the present
year, and it leaves S69,427 II, in favor of the
Wing administration.

CRors.-The farmers OF this region are
making no complaints. Their crops are
probably better than the average run in ali
quarters. while in particular localities they
are unusually large The early wheat was
injured by the army worm on some farms, but
all other wheat not thus molested has turned
out excellent The high waters delayed the
planting OF corn in the bottoms, but good
crops will yet be made. Our accounts from
the Wabash betoken bounteous plenty
Egypt can come to us this year for corn.

~ Amt it singular the Locos are busy
trying to prove that the Free Sellers are all
going for Scott, while at the same time Mr..
Pierce has declared he loathed the Fugitive
Slave Law, and used other just as strong ex-
pressons tinctured with abolitionism! How
dare men, too, who make the Compromise
measures the exciting topic of the Campaign,
and swear by the Fugitive Slave Law, give
their votes for Gen. Pierce! That he did use
the expressions imputed to him, and in a
speech delivered only few months before
nomination, is not subject matter for a doubt
We hope these men will now either keep
quiet about this law, or else about the man
who ioaths it-or else yield their support to
Gen. Scott.
