A PIKE ROAD.

A meeting was held at Reiners-
vile of the farmers OF that vicinity,
on Monday evening, the 9Th, to
consider the advantages that would
accru to our citizens IN general
from the building Of a pike road
from MCOnnelsville to Caldwell.
This movement on the part OF our
farming population is indicative OF
the intense feeling hat the bad
roads Of the past winter has crea-
ted on this subject. Farmers arc
disposed to DO disguised with the idea
that they r to be housed up for
four months IN the year by impas-
sable roads. 1t now only needs q
little energy on the part Of our
busincts men, who are interested
equally with the farmers in having
good roads, TO have pixies running
through all portions ofour county.
Another meeting will be held AT
Reinersville On next Monday ov-
ening. Would it not be we'll for
some Of our business men 10 attend

The Evansville journal. [volume] (Evansville, Ind.) 1866-1870, 1869-11-30

WE were greatly surprised to read
the attack on Judge ROBINSON in
the Courier of Sunday. We copy the
article in another place. That paper
for the past year has been the particu-
lar champion of the Judge, and its
somersauIt from an enthusiastic ad-
mirer and -panegyfist to that of an
enemy and denunciator, is so sudden
as to almost take ones breath. As
an Indication Of the high opinion the
Courier entertained Of the Judge, as a
well-posted lawyer and a man Of
answering integrity we copy an
article from its columns, dated April
3Oth, 1869, urging Governor BAKER
to appoint the Judge to his present
position. That paper was greatly
elated over the fact that its recon-
mendaticns in this particular were
endorsed by the Governor, rather
than the recommendation of the
JOURNAL proprietors and other lead
ing Republicans. We submit it is in
exceeding bad taste for the Courier
to go back" on its own appointee,
and abuse him as it has done. Did
: that paper have any regard for con-
sistency, it would keep silent.
The truth is, the indictments which
have been found against saloon-keep-
ers can in no sense be charged as q
partisan matter. The Grand jury
finding these indictments includes
several of the most Influential Demo
Gratis in the city, and Judge ROBIN
SONS appointment was advocated sc
strenuously by the Courier, that Gov
BAKER no doubt thought that ht
would be able to restore the era O
good feeling between the two par
ties by giving him the Commission.

There is now living in Terfe Haute.
Ind, colored man named John
Waller, commonly called Jack Wal
Ter, who moved from this place about
four years ago. He was recently
giving testimony in some important
Vincennes land case, dating back to
the year 1904, when his age became
known. He was born in Prince Viii
liam County, Virginia, in 1862, show
ing him to be now one hundred and
seven years old. He was brought as
a slave to Vincennes, but was set free
by the famous ordinance which made
free territory of the Northwest. He
was forty years old when he arrived
at Vircennes, where he resided until
he removed to Terre Haute. - I'm
