There is a movement in Indiana
to bring out Schuyler Colfax for the
United States Senate. This is en-
tirely fitting. Mr.. Colfax was just
as guilty and no more SO than Gen
eral Garfield in the Credit Mobilier
business. Mr.. Colfax took no De-
Goyler corruption fee nor did he take
part in the theft Of the Presidency.
His record as a public man is much
less smirched than that of the Re-
publican President. The party that
honors General Garfield has no right
to condemn. ColflX. The simple
truth is that, in nominating Garfield
and Arthur, the Republican party
condoned all the crimes that any of
its disgraced public men have suf-
fered for. Not one of the Republi-
can statesmen who have gone cut of
public life in disgrace is left under
a cloud.

JOHN KELLY intimidated the Dem
ocratic party of this country and
drove it from nominating the man
for President to whom it honestly
owed the position, and then sold it
out in the city of New York to keep
his place as Comptroller. Think of
the great Democratic party of this
country allowing itself to be dictated
to and controlled by ono man! Such
cowardice deserves nothing better
than defeat.

Some of the Republican journals
are raising a fearful howl because
the Democrats intimate that they
will investigate the New York cleo
ton. They object of course, and
whine that it is q scheme to throw
the Electoral vote to the Democrats.
They claim the election was a fair
one. Perhaps it was, and perhaps
it wasn't. There are more reasons
for thinking it was not fair than that
it was fair. But if it was a fair one,
and the Republicans did nothing
dishonest, why object to an investi-
CATION? If there were no frauds, an
Investigation won't show any. Why
do the Republicans object to having
the matter inquired into if it is all
straight and no frauds were commit
ted? Why do they howl so loudly
when it is announced that an inves-
tigation will take placer 1t looks
rather suspicious. 1t looks as il
there were a well founded fear that
somebody would be hurt. The in.

whether the Republicans like it OIL
not. We are not aware that it is in.
cumbent upon the Democrats to con.
suit their opponents as to what shall
be done in matters of this kind. We
have not heard that the Republicans

So long as money is the chief fac
tor in American politics, MS was
clearly demonstrated in our October
and November elections; SO long as
employers are permitted by their
employees to decide for them how
their ballots shall be cast; so long
as young reprobates and ~scallawags
are quietly permitted to crowd the
voting precincts, and badger and
challenge the right of suffrage of cit
liens who exercised it long before
they were born to degrade manhood;
so long as interlopers and carpet
baggers are allowed to usurp power
and crowd out the maner born of
your homes; so long as men high in
position, from the head of church
down to the lowest position of re-
sponsibility or trust use their relig-
ious, political or financial influence
to degrade the right of suffrage by
intimidation, actual purchase and
every other device known to the
scheming and u%nprincipled politi-
clans and office-seekers, just so long
will our elections.be a farce. When
we see for ourselves men who have
been placed by their fellow citizens
in positions of high trust, using
these places in their party to bull
doze and dragon men into voting
against the principles that are as
dear to them as the tenderest ties OF
home, we despair for the future of
our Republic. If fraud and corrup-
ton can at one time rule elections
and place in power o party whose
record and candidates have been un-
occasionally condemned by the
overwhelming verdict Of the people,
why may not these same influences
continue this corruption at the head
of National affairs until the grave
elimination of all this much to be
regretted, unkallowed influence will
be an Empire in the near future,
with Grant as the Emperor?

CHICAGO.

The sales of Bromoline in the city of
Chicago, last year, was thousands upon
thousands of bottles. Chicago is a first
class city. Bromoline is a tirst-class
medicine. Do you see the point? If
Bromoline had not been n good medi-
cine for the Blood and Liver, the lead
ing citizens of Chicago would not en-
dorse it by using it as a family medi-
cine. We mention Chicago, particu-
larly, it being a Western city and
Bromoline a Western medicine. When
your Blood is out of order, your appe-
tite gone, you feel weary and listless,
then try Bromoline and be helped.

The question of corporal punish
ment in public schools continues to
excite occasional discussion in vari-
Gus localities as a use of the power
to infict it is INDUCED. Boston has
it now, caused by q recent report OF
the Superintendent to the School
Board in which he states that in one
school, the number of whippjngs in
ficted on the scholars reached in 8
single month as high as 24l per cent
of the average attendance, and that
in other schools the percentage was
nearly as great. In consequence o.
public excitement, the Board decid
ed that hereafter corporal punish
ment shall only be inflicted by prin
cipals of schools, and then only OF
the day after the offense decided
worthy of such punishment shall
have been committed. Discussion
of the question has elected many
statistics, from which it appears tina
in France corporal punishment wa
abolished by law in 1850; HOLLAND
and Prussia followed suit a littl,
later; the same law exists in Aus
tria. New jersey. whose schoo
standard is high, passed p~rohibito

The election is over and we are

The election is over and we are
defeated again, but we think with
the Cleveland Plain Dealer that, so
far as the Republican party is con
cerned, it has been q campaign of
fraud and deception from beginning
to end. Its victory is not the honest
expression of the peoples will, but
is one that has been reached by the
most shameless political methods,
fraud, intimidation, falsehood, de
ception, bribery and infamous pro-
ceedings generally. 1t was the pow
er of a vast political machine, in the
hands of inscriptions men, the pow
er of monopolies, great moneyed
corporations, and big bosses against
the people. The Republican party
did not appeal to either the intelli-
gence or reason of the people; it ap-
pealed to their passions, their pre-,
judices and their fears. Its argu-
ments were sophistries and its ora
tors demagogues. 1t aroused sec
tional hatred; it stirred up religious
prejudic:s; it deceived the people
with lying promises; it illuminated
the Democratic candidate; it falsi,
fed it's own record; it did everything
that is base and mean and low in
politics, and succeeded by practices
that ought to disgrace it in the eyes
of good citizens. So far as the Dem.
ccracy are::concerned, they made an
honest straightforward fight for
worthy candidates upon issues that
embody the eternal principles Of
right and justice upon which all
good government is founded. They
have more honor in defeat because
their cause was just than, their op.
ponents have in their victory in an
unrighteous cause, obtained-b by dis.
honorable methods.
