WHAT OF THE NIGHT?

Tue night of tyranny is casting its porten-
S0us shadows over the land of Washington.
The sun of American freedom rose grandly
tc the zenith. throwing food of light upou
the world. The victims of oppression saw
the light and for more than an hundred years
humanity in all lands, taking fresh courage,
has been struggling TO realize the fruition OF
freedom and independence America is the
chosen theater for man to assert his divine
right to rule Washington and his compatri-
OTIS, after an eight years war against those who
claimed 10 rule by divine right, proclaimed to
the world that man had at last reached that
high elevation, and heneeforward would
by divine right rule himself. This has
been the theory and practice for more than
an hundred years. But now the PROPOSE
ton is to reverse the decree. 1t has been

.trolled by the dyedin-the-wool politicians,
the same who have headed Indiana democra-
News.
This is the same fool talk that the Cincin-
natl Commercial uses in every editorial no
tice of democratic gatherings, and our little
News starts it over as ponderously as if it
had struck new vein, just as if leaders
sprung up every time a convention was
held. Besides, it is not true. Twenty
years ago Mr.. Voorhees, had just made
his first and extraordinarily brilliant
race for congress in the old Charlottesville
district. willard had just got through ex-
hibiting O. p Morton to the people Of lndi-
ana and whaling him badly for the COVER
norship. Mr. Hanna was perhaps repre-
senting Vigo county in the legislature. Mr.
Julian was a republican, Mr.. Gooding was
democrat. but not at that time leader.
so the News had better leave the Cincinnati
Commercial to itself, and not pick up so
many of its foolish ideas. The old Comfy
of states gag, brought forward
again in yesterdays News. is another
STAKE old joke taken from the same paper,
when used frequently TO apply it to Mr..
Hendricks, but for the life of us we never
could see the point to it, and if Halstea6
had been getting Ii off on the stage,
he would have looked as foolish as Dun
dreary who thought be was saying
good thiag, when he WAS simply making q
fool of himself. What nonsense to talk
about the democratic leaders having headed
it for 'its hurtl" They led us grandly
through the last campaign, and we are not
much hurt The other side are 'hurt"
We believe our. leaders feel more
respectable than If they had been called
upon by their party TO indorse such hell
born rascality as the southern returning
boards, as John Hanna, Ben Harrison and
others of the smaller fry were called upon to
do few weeks ago. We know they feel more
respectable. and the party is not "hurt'' as
mach as this Indiana radical party is, who
stood by and yelled its assent The light
ming is not done striking yet for that ratify
ing radical rascality meeting.
