We shall not ssoop TO handy ePi'hets
with the editor of The Journal. II lsc Is
gentleman he will no, hesitate 10 repeat
to our own face what he sneakingly IN
sInua,es in his paper abou. our ''Purctas-
ed opposition to the democracy ;and IN
that case We guaranty that he viii not
have to do it a second Time 10 ensure an
appropriate answ'r.
We also take the liberty TO inform the
editor Of the Journal that our "balliwick"
is the whole State Of Indiana. We rec
ognize no light il any one TO cut US off
by boundary lines from the privilege Of
speaking as We think proper OF public
men and public issues in whom and IN
which the entire people Of the State are
interested. Our paper circula,es all over
the Stale, aud largely in the 6sst, third,
seventh, eighth. and eleventh Congress
ional Districts. However much our
course may annoy such whiting time
servers as the conductors of the Terse-
Hsute Journal have proved themselves
TO be, we have the most gratifying evi-
dsnce that il is approved by the great
mass of our democratic readers.
Since the Journal anl one or two other
papers of that district have SO far forgot
ten what was due TO their own self re-
spect and the couriesies of the press, as
TO meet with volleys of personal abuse
and low bIackgarjism statements made
by the Democrat which Ct themselves
afforded not the slightest ertext for any
such displays of i'll blood and i'll breed
/ ing. they must not complain il hereafter
they find thai there are blows TO give as
well as 10 receive.
We shall urge democrats Of the sew
en,h district 10 work early and late. and
with al their might. TO roll up John &.
Davis such majority as shall be Arebuke
TO the corrupt and treacherogs ooaclaYe
who seek To oStracise and disgrace him.
As will never be forgotten. Of his dec
ton there is not The shade 81 s4aHow ~
dosjt. He is just AS sure 10 be elected If
he lives. as is the election to take place on
the second Tuesday Of October But to
; be elected Is not enough. The result
should BE- such as TO make IA example OF
the vile nest Of ingratis who have
sought to make an example Of him.
