WE have on former occasions pointed out
and given the figures. showing the infamous
scoundrelism of Republican carpet bag
thieves, who were sent South Immediately
after the war to steal everything in sight,
and for the further purpose of obtaining
control of the State government. tia,,5 a
system of robbery might be insti arated,
backed by such legislation as might appear
advisable to cover up thefts and protect
tAieves by statutes. The facts, however,
should be kept prominently before the
American people. The figures showing the
thieving policy Of the Republican party
ought not to be lost sight of. The New York
World brings forward statements (which
were in circulation seven or eight years
ago." and which at that tune
provoked not little comment, and adds
that the figures "showed the debt and con-
tingent liabilities OF the States in 1861 be-
fore, and again in 1871. after they had ex-
perienced the blessings of civil war

incurred for the purposes of the war, the

Thomas A. Hendricks.
South Bend Herald

Every true Democrat in Indiana likes
Thomas A. Hendricks. They like him per-
sonally; they like him politically. They
like him for his socisl qualities. They like
him for his purity of character-that in all
relations of life, public and private, no
scandal or dishonor attaches to his name
They like him for his pre- eminent abilities
the character OF born leader and place HIM
at the head of the Democratic party of
Indiana As governor of the State; as
political adviser in Democratic counsels; as
representative in Congress or United States
senator-wherever ana in whatever capacity
Thomas A. Hendricks has been tried, he
has shown himself "honest and capable"
ciates. Under his lead Indiana has become
the Democratic banner State of the North
west, and by virtue of that position. we'll
as by his eminent fitness for the office, her
chosen Democratic delegates presented his
name to last Democratic National conven
ton as a candidate for the first place
upon the presidential ticket. He was
nominated and elected to the second
Thomas A. Hendricks has now q public
reputation, second to no man in the
United States His name will again be pre-
scented to the next Democratic National con-
vention for the first Office in the gift of the
people, and as he forms one of the small
group of recognized Democratic statesmen,
from whom the call is to be made, the central
figure of which Is Thomas A. Hendricks, we
belive the choice will fall upon him to take
the helm of the Government and bring the
ship of State back to its Democratic moor
iDgs. But should it be otherwise, the Dem
ocracy of Indiana will not only bow to the
expressed will of the majority in the choice
OF a candidate. but will do equal service
under any other lie sder.

Washing Day.
philadelphia Times.I


Whether to soak the clothes over night or
not is q much disputed question with house
wives Where pure cIstern water can be had
it is doubtless an advantage, but to soak
clothes in hard water sets the stains rather
than removes them, and river water unless
filtered when drawn off in quantities, as q
rule, contains so much mud that it is apt to
streak the clothes soaked in il for any con-
siderable time. Wringers are a blessed in
vention on the whole, although hard on but
tons. But flanneis should not be passed
through them, as they rub the wool up into
little nard maps. Clothes should, if possible.
be dried in the sun and in he open air, and
never yet did housewife notably greet with
a smile rainy washing day. But when
Monday is rainy, 1t is not always convenient
to postpone the weekly wash. In that case
sheets and any other large white pieces
which are not to be starched may be hung
out in the rain, which will bleach rather
than injure them. II possible, hang the
smaller pieces in an unused room up stairs,
when the rest may usually be disposed of
by hanging at night on lines stretched
across the kitchen, where the heat of the
fire will dry them before morning. Blankets
ought never to be washed in rainy weather.
Select a bright summer day for the work
aud let it be done and through with. Have
two people to wiring them, and stretch and
pull them carefully when putting on the
lines. Then pull and fold them dry, and
put them under press instead OF ironing.

Hints For Young Houskeepers.

We like once in a while to turn from poll
tics and the frailties Of human nature to
some subject tending to improve the race
and increase the sum OF Happiness. Here are
q variety of hints, gathered from many
sources, that may be Of advantage to young
houssKeepers:
1t is confidently asserted that boiling wa
ter will remove tea stains and many fruit
stains; pour the water through the stain and
thus prevent it from spreading through the
fabric. Ripe tomatoes will remove INK and
other stains from white cloth; also from the
hands. A teaspoonful of turpentine boiled
with white clothes will aid the whitening
process. Boiled starch is much improved
by the addition OF a little spermaceti or Q
little salt, or both, or a little gum arabic
dissolved. Beeswax and salt will make fat
irons as clean and smooth glass; tie Q
lump of wax in rag and keep it for that
purpose; when the irons are hot, rub them
with the wax rag. then scour with a paper
or rag sprinkled with salt. Kerosene VIII
soften boots or shoes which have been hard
ened by water, and render them as pliabie
as when new. Kerosene will make tin tea
kettles as bright as new; saturate a wooden
rag and rub with it; II will also remove
stains from clean Vanished furniture.
