THE STATE PRESS

The Evansville Journal says, in relation
to Mr.. Heilmsn's candidacy for the Repub-
Lcan nomination for governor:
He has no ambition In the direction of the
governorship, and would much prefer to be
satisfied where he is. and is in position OF
much greater usefulness than he could be In
the chair of thechief executive of the State.
They will come, singly at times, and occa-
sionaIly IN this way, as chronicled by the
Marion Democrat:
had twins within As hours, which is regarded
by the Portland Sun as one of the primary
effects of the Ohio nomination of Ewing and
Rice.
Guetiss sentence seems to give general
satisfaction throughout the State. One
opinion, as a sample, we take from the Con-
nersville News as follows:
Guetig, the murderer of Mary McG1ew, was
again convicted of murder in the first degree,
our hat and say "Amen!s The insanity dodge
didn' work, and we congratulate the citizens
of Indiana that hanging is not played out.
The Auburn Courier signs for q brass band
1t says that almost every cross-road town IN
the country has one, and sweet Auburn
must go to the rear. 1t won't be sweet
Auburn" during the time the new band does
its practicing. A tom cat hgot Is softest
music, to a new brass band getting ready for
its first public appearance.
The Anderson Herald is ION its ear" re-
ferring to the Sentinel as copperhead, ETC.,
because the latter takes interest IN the Ohio
campaign and General Ewing. 1t says that
General Ewing will not be allowed ITO COM
promise the American eagle"-whatever
that may mean.
The Boonville Enquirer flies Hendricks
and Hancock at the head of its columns
for its presidential ticket.
The Peru Republican has conferred the
degree of doctor of divinity upon Rev. n. A.
fho clever and n0nnlar naStOr of
the enterprising Mayfower church, OF this
city.
There comes through the State exchanges
an almost general complaint of swindlers OF
all kinds getting in their work" among the
farmers of the State. We noticed several
new lodges last week, and now the Marion
Chronicle has something to say about
another as follows:
Swindlers of all sorts are working counties
adjoining Grant, and it wonld be well for
seems to be to go to a farm where all are busy,
and demand a royalty for the infringement OF
cases the hhf farmers e viii come down with S. or
$40 rather than suspend work. These fellows
are swindlers, and If the farmer Will jam the
toe of his boot vigorously up under the fell
lows coat tail he will lose all interest in the
business that called him on to the farm. Try
it once, and see.
The Vevay Democrat while watching home
affairs, keeps an eye open for other matters
and says:
The committee appointed by the Pennsyl
wanna Legislature to go to San Francisco &c
welcome Grant upon his return failed to gel
free passes and will not go beyond the limit:
of their State.
The Terre Haute Express says that
Blaine, of Name" will be in that city or
the 4th.
The Mount Vernon Democrat says that
Miss Laura Ream, of this city, had very
select party given to her by Mrs. Senator
Menzies at her residence in Mount Vernon
on last Monday evening. General Hovey
was one of the guests, and Miss Hattie
Spencer is particularly noticed by the Dem
ocrat for her sweet and excellent singing.
The Pike County Democrat has a cool
head on most points, and especially on this
1t says:
The lunatic of the Okolona States still prints
his rawlings at so much per yard. The Repub
licans had better shut down on him and Gu
off his supplies. 1t will do them more harm
than good in the long run to hire such ar
idiot to manufacture fuel to "fre the Northern
heart"
