Time About

There 10 an old adage which says Time
about is fair play" The Indiana Democra.
cy are about TO experience the value Of this
wholesome truth, and the philosophy that's
in it.
Last winter, u. s. Senator was to be
elected. The Republicans had a majority
on Joint ballot, but the Democracy had con-
troll of the Senate, and refused to 90 into
an election. This winter the Democracy
have a majority on join, ballot, and great
have been the rejoiciDgs over the prospect
of electing Simon Pure Democrats to the
U. q. Senate.
But now alas, the Republicans have q
majority in the Senate and refuse to go in.
To an election. This is tit. for-tat, and no
one has a right to complain. The Indiana
polls Journal says:
The Senate is now organized, and the
opposition have majority Of four, tried By
Are and found true metal. every one. We
don't believe that there is money enough at
the disposal of the Democratic party to buy
one Of them, and buying is the only med
now left to get them. The aspirants feel
gloomy, and curse bitterly. Their chances
are hundred per cent worse this morning
than they were yesterday, and they feel it.
