Hon RI. KerehnYnI.

Our Republican exchanges, in vari-
GUS parts Of the State, are suggesting
the names Of gentlemen whose friends
will advocate their claims to different
positions on the Republican State
ticket at the approaching Convention,
on the I'D of February. Thus far we
have heard of no aapirant from this
Congressional District, who manilests
any disposition to thrust his claims
upon the attention of the people. En-
tertaining, however, as we do, the
opirion that the old, fashioned custom
Of having the Offices seek tho men,
ought rot to become altogether dead
letter, we bring forward the name of
r. Z. KERCHEvAy., of Spencer County,
for the Office of Treasurer of State.
Mr. KERoHEvAL is we'll known
throughout the First Congressional
District as a firm, active, and inauen-
tial Republican. He is an excellent
oanvasser, a good debater, is man of
pleasing address, and will make a
candidate of whom the party would
never be ashamed. Mr.. KERCHEvAL
has filed the Office of Treasurer of
Spencer county for two terms. He
is a member of the present State
Leg!slat are, and at its last session
gained tive respect and esteem of all
his associates, by his urbanity, atten-
ton to business, and sound Judgment.
1t is especially important that at
least two men be placed on the Re-
publican ticket, who will be able to
canvass the State efficiently and sue
cessfully. Ofall the candidates men
toned thus far, but one or two make
any pretensions whatever to public
speaking. On the other hand. we no.
tice that majority of the Democratic
aspirants arc men who have had more
or less experience as public speakers.
The battle to be fought next year
will be hard one, and if our State
ticket is not composed of men who
will be both willing and able to dis
cuss the questions at issue in an intel
igent manner, the party may expect
defeat. Prominent among the ques-
tions to be discussed will be that of
Finance. This branch of American
politics, Mr.. KERcHEvAL has made
special subject Of study, and We think
he will be found able to discuss the
complex question with as much abili-
ty, if not more, than can be done by
any one spoken of thus far in con-
nectiOn with any. of tho offices to be
filled at the next election.
Mr.. KERCHEvAL' s friends from this
part Of the State. will present his
name to tho Convention, conscious
that his name will add greatly to the
strength of tho ticket, and that, if
nomir ated, his election will be to the
advant age Of the State as well as cred
table 50 the party.

TIE Courier speaks Of the " learned
gentleman who writes temperance
articles for the Evansville JOURNAL.
As there has not been a solitary edi-
toriaI in the JOURNAL on the license
law but what was written by the edi-
tor, he feels al loss how to return
the compliment of the Courier, unless
it be by suggesting that the display Of
q little learning in its editorials would
materially improve the character and
standing of the paper.

10 reconcile the fact that nine-tenths
Of the Democratic members Of the
Legislature voted for The present
a. compulsory temperance law" with
it's declaration that tho Democratic
partv through days of darkness and
sunshiae, have opposed compulsory

ENTERPRIsE. = The Washington
Gazette of this week says: Steps
have been taken to organize a com-
pany for tho manufacture of gas In
this place. A rolling mill company
has also been organized. The articles
of association of both companies were
forwarded TO the Secretary of State 3
Office during the week" The talk of
gas at that place is all gas, we should
guess. -EUdasUille Courier.
That Is IN bad taste, coming from

have more pride for tina place Of his
nativity than to make fun of it. But

THE Terre Hautc dry goods men
know how to do the " big thing" in
the way of advertising. We notice
that the advertisement of w. S. RYCE
& ECo. occupies three of the large
columns of the Express, and the ad-
vsrtisements Of TUELL, RIPLEY &
DEMINa and WARREN, HoBERG a.
Co. each two columns of the same
paper. These advertisements present
an appearance of thrift and energy
that is very attractive to the people,
and We have no doubt the gentlemen
comprising these business firms real
ize that advertising pays, and pays
well. It is by the public spirit of
such men that the reputation Of Terre
Hauto for growth and enterprise has
been so greatly increased within the
past four or five years.
