A Grand Ratification.

PERU, Ind, July 5.-The campaign opened
here Saturday night under favorable auspices.
Judge Turpie addressed large crowd of DEM
ocrats in the Court House. His speech was
mastery exposition of the principles of the
Democratic party, and scathing arIaignment
OF the corrupt policy OF the fast waning Repub-
lican party. He was repeatedly interrupted by
storms OF applause from his enthusiastic audi
ence At the conclusion of his remarks Han
cock and English Club $50 strong was formed.
We intend to have the Judge address US again
at no distant day, as he is q great favorite in
this his old District, where he castigated Col
fax so numerically when they ran for Con-
gress.
A statement appeared In the Journal some
days ago to the effect that the Catholics were
opposed to Hancock. There is not Demo-
cratic Catholic in the County who is not en-
Enthusiastically for Hancock, and q celebrated
clergyman OF that denomination who has al
ways been Republican announces that un-
der no circumstances could he vote for Gar
field, and intends to vote for Hancock and
English.

The Candidates for Vice President.

The Candidates for Vice President.
Frank Leslie's Illustrated Weekly
The tendency of our politics in recent
years has been to belittle the Office of Vice
President. The standards of capacity by
which nominees for that Office are measured
have bten steadily lowered until now the
politicians hold anybody who can control
votes to be ''good enough for Vice Presi-
dent" There could be no more grievous
mistake. The office is in point OF fact
one of vast importance. The incumbent
is liable at any moment, in the hazards
OF human life, to be called to the
Chief Magistracy, and be should be equipped
in the largest sense for that possible exigen-
cy. Under the present method of counting
the ectorsl vote, be exercises an authority
and influence as TO the determination of the
Presidential issue which are practically alb
solute. In an evenly balanced Senate, his
vote msy finally decide questions sffectiDg
the interests OF millions OF people. Surely,
no man without experience in affairs, or
destitute of capacity to grapple with the
broadest and weightiest issues. should occu-
by place at once go dignified and so i'm

OF the candidates now in nomination for
the Vice Presidency, Mr.. English, the Demo
cratic nominee, Is rquestionabIy the more
worthy of support. He has ability, expert
ence and marked independence of character;
be is without unsavory partisan entangIe,
ments, and he is more truly abreast of the
dominant opinions of the country than the
great msjority of the Demo ratic lead
ers. When, during his Congressional career,
be was called TO face the question OF
the admission of Kansas under the Le-
compton Constitution, which did not pro-
hiblt slavery, he coursgeously opposed the
policy OF his party and 6pally, by his reso-
luton, secured the passage of q bill under
which the people of the Territory, to whom
the whole subject was referred, voted to as

During the recent war, Mr.. English was

be said, comprehensively, that his public
career has been in every way honorable. ex-

1t will not be pretended by the most pro-

Republican candidate for the Vice Presi.

on considerations Of peculiar fitness, expert
ence or sympathy with the higher politics oi
