bauch the morals Of a patriotic peO-
pie hy inducing thep To repudiate our
national obligations-these and much
else i'm the past and present of that
party, should make il an unccngenial
refuge for disaflected Republicans.
Let Us settle our differences among
ourselves without the aid Of the Dem
ocratic Solons who have ruined their
own party and would gladly assist in
the destruction of ours.
The JOURNAL will be the earnest
and faithful SUI porter Of the National
Administration in its efforts to carry
out the pledges it has made TO the
country. We have seen no cause for
Republicans TO waver in their faith in
the great leader who led us To victory.
The fidelity with which President
Grant is redeeming his promise TO col
lect the revenues and reduce the public
debt naturally excites surprise in the
Democratic mind, which has never
been refreshed with the spectacle of a
Democratic administration redeeming
any pledge whatever"
Them's our sentiments exactly.

CONGRESSIONAL NOMINATIONS.

With the exceptions If the Fifth,
Seventh aud Eleventh Districts, the
Republican nominations in this State
are all made. Five nominations " uere
made last week. In the First District
Capt II. C. Gooding is the nominee.
Capt. Gooding serTed during the war
i'm one of the Illinois Regiments. was
good and brave soldier and an sffl-
cient officer. He is "a brother Of the
redcubtable David s. the Democratic
nominee in the Fourth District, but is
far his superior in point of ability, both
as lawyer and public speaker, and
has none of the low demagoguery that
characterizes Dave, his political record
being clear. The Capt. is our warm
personal friend, and we hope and be-
lieve that he will redeem his dist.ict.
In the Second District, Hon. Geo.
w. Carr, the nominee, is we'll and
favOrably known all over the State.
He is of great persona! worth and
popularity. The Republicans of that
District are hopelessly in the minority.
but will present an unbrOken front To
their opponents.
Hon. Henry II. Pritchard is the
nominee of the Third District. Mr..
Z. is a minister Of the Gospel, is Il man
of strong and vigorous mind a we'll
as in body. lie has been identified
with the politics cf his district for
several years, and is thoroughly ac-
quainted in every county in his dis
trict. He will make IA thorough can
vass, and will doubtless be successful.
judge j. NJ. Wilson, Of Connersville,
i the Republican candidate in the
Fourth District. The Judge is very
popular man, uneXceptional in his
private and public life. His opponents
have selected GOoding. Andy john
sons bottle holder, who Is personally
unpopular, and whose record is so in
consistent, that the Judge will have
clear sailing.n
In the Sixth District the choice of
the Republicans fell upon Hon. Moses
+. Dunn. Mr.. Dunn is "a young man,
being only % years old. He will
make strong canvass, giving the
"tall sycamore" Voorhees,, some
trouble To retain the seat so long dis
graced 10y him.
In the Eighth District. Hon. James
y. Tyner, present incumbent was re-
nominated 10y acclan.atiOn. His cleo
ton is certain.
In the Ninth District we have Cen
Shanks, our own John Peter Clever,
whose merits and demerits were So
thoroughly cusscd and discussed dur
ing the canvass for the nomination
last spring. that it's useless for us TO
speak of him at length. There were
some differences among Republicans
before his nomination., but there are
none nop. and he will be again tri-
umphanly successful.
In the Tenth District, Maj. Williams
was re-nominated, although there
was bitter opposition to him. His
opponents withdrew from the Con-
vention, and nominated Gen. Hascall
as an independent candidate, who ac-
cepted aud promised a thorough cam
vass. We fear this course of action
may imperil one of the old reliable !
Districts of this State, and can but
regard it as an unfortunate affair.
The nominations are all good ones,
and it is hoped Republicans will lay
aside their personal feelings in these !
matters and work harInOniously for
the right.

REDUCTION OF DEBT.

The Dem ecracy feel very much an
moved at the steady reduction Of our
debts, both State and National. The
| figures do not suit them, they are as
| thorns i'm their flesh. Evere suhter-
fuge at their command is resorted to,
to explain away the plain showing of
these figures. Some shrewd Demo-
cratic mathematicians prove success
fully (in their estimate) that the
national debt is constantly increasing.
! Mr. Hendricks acknowledges the
fact that the State debt under Repub-
lican control has been rapidly reduced +,
it has been doEe, he says by large
increase of the taxes, 1t is quite
natural that i'm order to pay debts
money must be raised somehow.
Governments raise money by taxes,
and the only difference between the
Democratic and republican control Of
the State il, that the former assessed
scarcely sufficient TO meet the current
expenses, permitting the State To sink
deeper into debt yearly, making there
10y taxes easy upon the people for the
time being; all well enough for politi-
cal ends, but debts must he paid TO
sustain public credit. Republicans re-
leeived large Democratic debt as a
/ legacy when they came into power,
and in their management of affairs
they determined To pay il off as rapid
+ ly as consistent with good manage
ment. The work is about accomplish
ed. 1t is true the people paid increas-
! ed taxes; how else can ten millions of
I debt be paid?
But the work is done. and taxes will
as "A matter of necessity be reduced for
STATE purposes. The question ROW is,
shall the Democratic party 10 which
the people are indebted for that boon
of State debt, be again reinstated ms
soon "a the score of their prodigality
has been paid?-E. Wayne Journal.
