Meredith and Juli,n

E We'clip the following from the
kokomo Tri5ane, one of the ablent ana
most influential papers in Indians:
Ii may not be our .put in, it in quite
likely the funeral is not ours, but it does
seem that it would be pleasure TO US
inst now 10 publish paper in the Burnt
District. Gea- Meredith and Geo. W,
Julian are candidates for Congress and
the nomination of one or the other will
be made at the April election by vote
OF the people. All the papers we see
from that District are for Julian. We
should heartily and zealonsly espouse
the other side if we were there All the
stuff about Julian as representative
man is bosh. Meredith has proved
himselfa soldier, and in this crisis of our
country il is enough to make one sick to
hear a man spoken of as embodying the
public idea who never went to war; who
never got n recruit, who never encourag-
ed enlistments and hasn't done anything
for the Government except To hold civil
office We always admired the talent of
Julian but if he is not cold hearted
man, if he is not for himself and nobody
else, if he was ever accused of liherality
or public spirit. then our information is
precisely wrong. Meredith has favor ably
disappointed his best friends in his ability

has fought bravely has been wounded

ent emergency is our idea of a represen-
tative man. Julian served his country
As a veteran" with the writer in the pur-
suit of Morgan, but he looked sour and
out off fix all the time and his sourness
eliminated in anger when one of the
boys, on our return, turned the contents
of a water tank in his face and all over
his stove pipe hat and suit of black. But
this is none of our business, still. we re
peat, were we in the right District We
should go heart and soul for Meredith as
the man pre- eminently entitled to the
nomination he asks.

Answer and Question.

We very seriously protest having the
photograph of our character taken by the
gentlemanly professors of the Are-par-
ticuiarly so, as the camera and the new
~ discovered chemicals they use, only
bring forth reflections of their own char
acters and natures! However. we can
see no objection to answering the ques-
ton they ask us in regard to supporting
the individual who shall be selected at
the April nomination election as the can
engaged in a nominating election, we
have always considered that we were in
honor bound to support the nominee.
We have not deyiated from this rule and
although the pill has been bitter one
on two occasions, we have swallowed the
dose for the sake of the cause Should Mr.
Julian be again chosen next April, whic
we have reasonable grounds to hope will
not be the case. as much as we dislike the
taste of ipecac and aloes, and worm wood
and gall, we shall gulp it down. Wehope
never to be guilty of doing as the Hon
NJ. c. himself did when Gov Morton
was first nominated, write n letter to the
National Era, expressing the desire that
the ticket nominated ,coltid meet wiM an IN
glorious defeat, and then carry out the
principle at the election, by scratching lis
name Of tie ticket
Having now, we think satisfactorily.
answered the question of the Broad Axe
we beg in turn to PROFOUND to that pa
per and other Julian organs of the dis
trict, this question: Do yoa pledge your
selpes to rote for, and adroeate tie election
or Gen. Meredith an case he is nominated at
the approaching elections And inasmuch
as it is currently reported and believed,
that Mr.. Julian has privately announced
his intention to bolt the nomination. we
demand that that gentleman himself.
shall also give an explicit answer to the
same question. We shall adopt the anne
rule of construction that has been applied
to US, and ask the public to construe the
silence or eqniroeation, OF either of these
parties, as negatire answer to the ques-
ton on their part.

so profanc and vulgar as not to be fit to

is great State, and has sent her thou
sands of brave and gallant regiments in
to the Union army. But the Copperheads
of Indiana are a meaner, baser and more
detestable set of traitors, than those Of
Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, or any Of the
North western States. They are even
more corrupt, and more villainous than
even the Secessionists of South Carolina,
Georgia or Alabama.
