1t is now given out that as last desperate
resort the Ohio Democratic Supreme Court is
to prostitute itself to save the State to the
party. In defiance of the merits of the case,
it is seriously proposed to pronounce the Scott
law unconstitutional. This is to placate the
saloon element, alienated from the Democratic
party by its failure to repeal the law according
to promise. The court will find that the
Scott law is '1oaded" if they persist in fooling
around it. 1t was just four years ago last
summer that the Democratic Supreme Court
of Indiana upset the constitutional amend
ments for partisan purposes, and had it "tele-
graphed to the boys at Cincinnati for the
benefit of f1ndiana's favorite son" Thomas A.
Hendricks. 1t not only failed to save his
sinking fortunes in the convention, but so
nightly stirred up the people that they re-en-
acted the amendments by majority Of tens
of thousands. The saloon-keepers and brewers
of Ohio are as keen business men as any in
the State, and they will not be caught in this
trap, set Tor the benefit OF the Democratic
party. Such a repeal, made for the meanest
and most corrupt reasons, would so enrage
the people of that State that another law
would speedily be passed that would embody
even greater restrictions, and no Democratic
Legislature would dare repeal it, any more
than the last Democratic Legislature of that
State dared kill the Scott law. The brewers
of New York understand the situation, as do
those at Cincinnati and are doing all they can
to keep their breweries out of the range of the
political cyclone.

In answer to the proposition that if it could
name one good thing that Grover Cleveland
ever accomplished, the writer would vote for
him, the New York World was unable to
name even one, outside of the one that, ''as
mayor of Buffalo, he aided in breaking up
ring" Grover Cleveland, backed by the best
people of Buffalo, is a very different man from
Daniel Manning and the giant monopoies of
New York city. He has been able to do moth
ing except obey their bidding, and has vetoed
every bill passed in the interest of the work
ingmen in their struggle against monopolies.

chance to defeat Judge Lowry, who is de-
servedly unpopular with his own party. We
need not say what glorious triumph the
election of Mr.. Keator would be. Such a
consummation is worth herculean ex-
ertions by the gallant Republicans of the
district.
The Republicans of the Thirteenth district
should be thoroughly awake to the import
ance of keeping it in line. The resignation
of Mr.. Calkins leaves vacancy that must be
filled by Republican. Mr.. Thayer is worthy
the earnest and sincere support of every friend
of the party and of the principles it represents.
In this, the Seventh district, whose duly
elected representative in Congress was un-
seated in answer to the demand of the million
aire father of the defeated candidate, the Re
publicans and all fair-minded men who believe
in honorable treatment should combine to
make Mr.. Peelle's majority this time of mag
nitude sufficient to compel Democratic seat
stealers from again disfranchising this dis
trict. The issue between Mr. Peelle and his
opponent is squarely drawn and generally un-
derstood Mr.. Peelle has proved himself the
earnest and efficient friend of workingmen and
their interests, while Mr.. Bynum is free
trader and would do all in his power to LET
English mills '1iterally pour their goods into
America" The duty of the voters of this dis
trict is too plain to be discussed.
From this glance over the congressional
| field it is apparent that there is an excellent
chance to gain five congressman from the op-
position. The sympathy of the masses and
the interest of workingmen are on the side Of
the Republican nominees, while the men
themselves are personally popular and will
make a big showing Earnest, persistent
work will win the day in each Of the districts
named, and Indiana will then have done hel
nearest duty toward sustaining American in
dustral interests, thing that intimately con
Germs every man, woman and child in the

AT the eleventh hour the Democrats have
succeeded in bringing Allen G. Thurman into
the State to try and do something to arrest
the disaster that threatens them. His appoint
ments show that he is expected to help By
mum, Holman and Matson. This should be
an Indictment to the Republicans of the
Fourth, Fifth and Seventh districts to ex-
traordinary efforts. 1t is a concession that
Hon. John o. Cravens has at least "a fighting
chance" to defeat the cheapest and tawdriest
demagogue in the State. If it were possible
to retire Holman and Lowry, in the Fourth
and Twelfth districts the victory would be
notable indeed 1t is within the possibilities

GATH writing from New York to the
Cincinnati Enquirer, says he has discovered
that the brewers of that city, taking their cue
from their fellows in Cincinnati, are taking
no active part in politics. ''The German dis
position now everywhere is" says he, Gin
stead of putting beer into politics, to get it en-
tirely and permanently out, so as to avoid
hostility on one side and contributions on the
other" 1t has dawned on the intelligence of
the brewers that it would be the height of
folly to make their business political issue.

COLONEL GRAY'S RECORD.
Chicago News (Dem. }

Ch1cago news tDeM.J
Briefly stated, the career of Isaac P. Gray,
Democratic candidate for Governor of Indiana,
seems to have been as follows: In 1854 and un-
til 1860 he was violent Know nothing in 1860
he was a Republican, entered the army and re-
signed when his regiment was ordered to the
'front.' in 1870 he was Republican candidate for
congressional nomination, but was defeated; in
1872 he was again Republican candidate for
congressional nomination, and again de-
feated, whereupon he sought the nomination
for Lieutenant governor and was defeat
ed; in 1876 he was nominated and
elected by the Democrats Lieutenant-gov-
ernor, and, upon the death of Governor Will
Jams, filled out the term (six weeks during
which time he pardoned sixteen convicts, two of
whom had been his clients. In 1880 he was a
candidate for the nomination for Governor, and
failing to secure that accepted the nomination
for Lieutenantgovernor and was defeated
sbefore the people. At different times
in his life, when not engaged in politics, Mr..
Gray has served as a speculator in whisky, and
was the president of one of those institutions
commonly called graveyard insurance compa
MES" His business and political careers have
shown that he possessed versatility which few
could equal and none could surpass.

Mr.. Cleveland it cites the bills he has
signed. blandly ignoring those that
he vetoed! In this, as in the former case the
Herald casts contempt upon the intelligence
of the men to whom it appeals. OF what i'm
portance is it to workingmen what bills Cleve-
land may have signed, when he vetoed sew
eral Of vital interest to their rights and well
fareG In the interest of the elevated railroads
he votoed bill allowing workingmen to ride
for five cents. Is it any answer in justifca-
ton Of this to say that he signed bill regu-
lating insurance companies7 This is exactly
the Herald's course. 1t is as though counsel
for man indicted for murder should argue
icating liquors! The charge in this case is
murder; that Mr.. Cleveland murdered the in
terests of the poorer people in order to swell
the profits of monopoly. Is the reply
to be that he once passed fountain without
polluting it or poisoning its waters9 What
relevancy is there between the two? The
charge is murder and the reply is that the
accused once saved mans life by not knock
ing his brains out with a bludgeon. The
Herald's methods are beneath even contempt,
and are noticeable only because they come
from source that ought to be above the
petty meanness of mediocrity. The Herald and
the Democratic party are welcome to all they
may make in this way. We misjudge the in
telligence of the American people if this style
harm than good to the party and the paper
that seek to profit by it.

bition of partisan and malicious meanness.
The managers of the proposed parade should
either address or meet the board, and an
agreement be mutually reached where
by the enforcement of the ordinance
would be suspended for that night.
Threats and hard words are both unnecessary
and childish. We have no doubt the Police
Board would readily consent to such an ar
rangement. They do not hesitate to suspend
the enforcement of State law to please sa-
loon keepers, and, of course, the order of the
Board of Aldermen, to which reference is
made, adds nothing to the validity of the ordi-
nance nor to the duties of the board. Should
the managers of the demonstration proceed
upon this suggestion and the board then re-
fuse to accede to this reasonable request, there
will be time to determine what is the best
course to pursue.

the presumption of fraud and force
against it, and the party which has
placed upon the statute books the only laws
that ever were placed there for the preserva-
ton of the purity of the ballot has the pre-
sumption of fairness and honesty in its favor.
When to the presumption against the Demo
cratic party is added such public declarations
as are made by its leading newspapers, and
such preparations fol the use of money as are
notorious all over the country, then we may
well and properly appeal to all who regard the
ballot as a sacred thing, and who believe that
the perpetuity of the government depends
upon a virtuous and intelligent vote,
to use every individual effort to
ward off the despoilers of the ballot
box, and to stand as wall of moral defense at
the back of those officers of the government
who are under oath to preserve the peace and
to protect the ballot. Indiana must and will
have fair election next Tuesday. Demo

Mrs. CAROLINE DALI, of Buffalo, says
Governor Cleveland authorizes no bitter at
tacks upon the character of the Republican
candidate "who is protected from unauthor-
lied attacks by the simple fact that he has a
wife and children" 1t does not seem to have
occurred to Mrs. DALI who, by the way, does
not appear to be reader of the Indianapolis
Sentinel, that Mr.. Cleveland might have been
protected in the same way had he been manly
enough to have married the mother of his
children

UNWORTHY METHODS,

1t is matter of surprise that a journal of
the standing of the New York Herald, occu-
pying position that calls for decency and
dignity in all its utterances, should descend
to depths that would shame the Eatanswill
Gazette. 1t has elected to champion Cleve-
land and Hendricks and "a change" with all
that change implies 1t was reasonable to
expect that it would strike often and hard in
defense of its favorites; but it has out-Heroded
Herod in the baseness of its methods, putting
itself on a par with those infamous Democratic
papers that have not hesitated to strike at Mr..
Blaines wife and children, if thereby they
could aid the dropping cause of "a moral
leper."
Not content with assaulting Mr.. Blaine's
official integrity, the Herald is aiming to beat
him by stirring up race prejudice one of the
meanest, most un-American tricks possible in
the field of politics. Repeated at frequent
intervals through its editorial matter may be
found paragraphs like this;
'FWe are now informed by Mr. Grimke, ed
itor of the Hub; Judge l.. Ruffin j. G. Chap
pelle, Lewis Hayden, j. Fl. Wolff and j. j.
Smith-all leading colored citizens of the
'Athens of America" that the colored vote
of Boston is solid for Blaine"
In other issues was inserted statement of
similar import-that the colored vote of New
York was solid for Blaine The evident inten-
ton of these otherwise senseless squibs was
to stir up the Irish vote against that candidate
who may command the support of colored
men, What kind of estimate does the Herald
place on the intelligence of the Irish that it
so boldly intimates that they are jealous of the
negro, or of any other race, for that matter
What is there in the Irish makeup that
should make them, more than any other men,
fear competition with the colored men9 And
what must be the feeling of Irishmen thus
gratuitously insulted2 Does the Herald place
so low an estimate on the intelligence of Irish
men that it imagines that they will not see
the significance of this appeal to themY
There are two things made plain by this sin
gular and disgracetul course of the New York
Herald First, it is tacit confession of the
desperate strait in which the Democratic par
ty finds itself; and, next, that there is such
thing as a formidable revolt among the Irish
Democrats If the Irish vote could be counted
on, as the Democratic party has been won't to
count on it, there would be no occasion to
seek to infame their prejudices, and if the
party were not aware of the almost certain de-
feat that awaits it, the Herald would not feel
justified in descending to such disreputable
methods 1t is double confession of ex-
pected defeat
In another direction the Herald is as pitt
fully puerile as in this it is base. In giving
its reasons why workingnen should vote for

sings very small as to Indiana. He does not

Though you bray fool in a mortar, his fool
ishness will not depart from him. Oregon is
given up by the Democratic State chair
man. Verify, there is not much comfort for
the Democracy in these "offcial" dispatches
But the Herald also prints the following spe-
cial from Chicago:
eff the election were held to-day. there
would be not 5000 Republican majority at
the most Carter Harrison would run 5000
ahead of the Democratic electors, and would
be elected This statement is very conserva-
tive. A poll as far as poll is practicable,
and estimates where it is not, make the State
stand to-day: Cleveland, 32S, 995; Blaine,
324 768; Butler, $4,000; st. John, $4,000.
Harrison will run 13, 900 ahead of Cleveland
Success depends on the ability of the Repub-
licans to undo our work in the last hours of
the campaign. Serious trouble may occur in
Chicago on election day"
The author of this luminous dispatch should
have been able to remember his figures at
least from one line to the other. In the third
line he says Garter Harrison would run 5000
votes ahead of The Democratic electors" and
in the tenth line says Harrison will run
13, 900 ahead Of Cleveland" Whether this
particular idiot desires us to understand that
Mr.. Cleveland will run 5000 votes behind the
Democratic electors not we do not quite
understand, but certain it is that this sort of
stuff is very poor Cruel for even an independ-
ent mugwump to keep up on. 1t is thinner
than the oatmeal, rice and hominy which In
diana mugwumps prescribe as proper and
cheap diet for workingmen. There is just
one scintilla of sense in the whole dispatch,
and that is that there may be trouble in Chi
cago on election day. In the interests of Car
two thirds of the polls of the city
have been located in saloons and
dago shops Carter Harrison has
control of the police force, and will undoubt-
edly increase the force as largely as he pleases.

his purpose to appoint as many special depu-
ties as may be necessary to keep the peace
and preserve the sacredness of the ballot, if so
many as 5000 be essential. and Mr. Jones is
a man likely to do what he says. The Repub-
licans of the North are not the men to be
"bulldozed" out of a free ballot and fair
count by any sort of Southern rebel tactics,
and if the desperate Democracy attempt that
game they will be met with determination and
authority ample to overcome their wicked and
illegal schemes. The Republicans of Illinois,
as the Republicans of Indiana, are going to
have fair election. Let the Democratic
