Editors Courier =. GENTS - Last
Saturday evening the Hon. J. w. Dix
on and I. 7. Flint ESQ.,, held forth in
behalf of the democracy, at this place.
Mr.. Dixon made tolerable speech,
in point of matter and delivery. He
seemed to level his batteries chiefly
against the republican party, calling
them in substa nee pack Of thieves.
We were particularly struck with one
remark he made and that was hil
statement that the last republican
speech he ever made, he believed wal
made in this place In 1883 and that Il
nearly killed him to do II, and he
did not know but 1t ought. We Ger.
tainly agree with Mr.. Dixon, that II

The poetical editor of tho Dallas
Center Globe says:
How many husbands there are who
would rush Into . burning bnilding,
to rescue the wife Of their bosom
from the flames--all for love--but
who would let this same wife almost
freeze her feet and hands trying to
build fire with green wood, while
they remain snugly covered In bed

REGISTRATION.


The law Of this state requires that
tho township trustees shall meet to
revise the register of electors, on the
Tuesday preceding the general cleo
ton. This year 1t will be on Tues
day the 3lst day of October and
Wednesday tho 1st day of November.
The law says, "They shall revise, cor
erect and complete the register Of cleo
"tions and shall hear any evidence that
"may be brought before them in ref
ference to zach correction. Their
"scssion shall be from 9 A. NJ. to s r. n.
ANY person appearing to register
"his name, may be challenged by any
"elector or member of the board"
Now we want to say that we have
the very best evidence that the names
Of voters have been placed mp
OH the registry, not entitled to be
there. It is absolutely necessary for
the protection of every legal voter
that this registry should be accurate.
We therefore say that in our judg-
ment, the only safe way TO correct
this registry is, for every roter to APP
pear in person and see that his name
is registered on one of the two days
named, unless he has examined the
lists now in the lobby of the post
Office and knows that his name Is on
the same. Republicans, VIC beg of
you all to attend to this matter and
we warn you that unless you do
your names may not appear. If we
desire to have pure elections and no
Illegal votes cast, let u all help to
make it SO, by giving the matter the
small attention Of seeing, each for
himself, that his name is registered.
Earnest republicans, will you see that
your neighbor too. attends to being
registered,

Saturday night the Democrats In
this city had what was intended To
DO . jolliflcation meeting over the
loss Of nine Congressman in Ohio
and Indiana, all tho state officers OF
an entiro state including boil,
branches Of the Legislature, and both
branches Of tho legislature in one OF
the great States Of this Union.

To the Republicans Of old Wapello:
Waterman tell 10 Of tho night"
You may ask how does the matter
stand, now that Harrison 10 defeated
in Indiana? At best It 10 merely 1
drawn battle. While we lose the Gov
ernor we gain four Congressman, ana
have . majority in both branch
es of the Legislature. Two years ago
the democrats elected eight out Of
thirteen Congressman, with a net
majority Of over 1900, and elected
their state ticket by over 1900 ma
jority. This year they lose four Con-
gressmen, the Legislature, and only
elect "Blue Jcans" by about 5000
majority. For twenty years Indiana
has never cast her electoral vote for
o democratic President. In 1856 she
gave her electoral vote for Buchanan.
Since then she has been the great CEN
trail battle ground Of each Presiden-
tial campaign, and she has been true
to the republican party. In my opin-
ion, had republicans in that state, at
an early day taken positive stand
for sound financial doctrine and
stuck to II, and discussed tho right
doctrine, with the record Of the DEM
oeratic party as to greenbaeks and
"wild cat" and fred dog" state money,
tho great part Of the Indiana people
would have stood solidly on the re-
publican doctrine Of national paper
money and specie payments. I am
firm in the conviction that no party
can stand in this country If it pandcrs
to the soft money sentiment. 1t was
the imitation folly that demoralizcd
popular opinion in Indiana. People
may love to wander amid the vagaries
of the imitation scheme, and dream of
picking "rag money from every
bush, but when they rightly come to
themselves they find that there is but
one way to get money, and that is,
"work and save" The democratic
majority in Indiana, to be of any
service to the "Lost Cause" should
have been sweeping and heavy. Not
withstanding the state has a large
number of people to whom the "Blue
Jeans" demagoguery would commend
itself, as being in some way o cham
pionship Of farmers and working
people, the majority did not pan ont
as they expected. The real test Of q
party's strength is found in the Con-
gressional districts, and when the
Republicans elect nine out Of thirteen
Congressman, and secure . good
working majority in both branches Of
the Legislature, I think we can count
on the result In November as secure.
