"When Greek Meets Greek then Comes
the Tug of War"

''When Greek Meets Greek then comes
the Tug of War;
The heading of our advertisement is
very appropriate when applied to our
trade, for there is constant war among
clothing dealers, especially this season of
the year. One will claim to do more than
the other. 1t is needless tor us to say that
we are the cheapest and most popular
Clothiers in the city, for our past reputa-
ton speaks for our future, as we have
never failed to do what we say. We will
now inform the public that for the re-
mainder of this season we will offer great
inducements in the balance of our Sum-
mer Stock. Straw and Manila Hats we
will sell at New York cost price, and
Clothing at a very small margin. All
those who wish to avail themselves of this
rare opportunity will find it to their in
terest to come early.

Is a very good thing, and where real merit
is advertised success is assured, but in
our days every little shebang with no adj
vantages to back it, advertise, and if you
believe everything you read you will GER
taiUly get left. Here is a case in point:
If you read all the advertisements of the
Savannah clothing stores, you would
think that they must be almost giving the
goods away, but if you try every one OF
them you will find that the Famous New
York Clothing House will give you better
goods and lower prices than all others.

All the settlers of the land are carpet-baggers,
but one class of foreigners objects to another.
When the Mongol comes to our occidental coast
the Irish cry out: ''The Chinese must go" All
the printers leagues and labor leagues of all
kinds among men of mechanical pursuits are con-
sentative of their selfish selves, and they
apply the law of force to all outside of them
selves, They combine so that no man can have
a chance. Carpenters and brick-layers combine
so that no one can learn except acertain number
of apprentices; they combine for defense, and
also for assault. The radical vice OF all sociology
is organized sefshness. The law of love is not
known in it, All the social theories Matched out
in France and all that come to us from England,
the land of grumblers and all the little sets and
circles of socialists here teach people to take
care of themselves while protesting to stand for
liberty and rights. It's handful of rights to

POLITICAL NOTE AND GOSSIP.

nounce that Hon. John H. Baker will not be

Party, Defense of Its Policy, and the Reasons
Which Justify Its Continuance in Power with
Biographical Sketches Of the Republican Candi-
dates" 1t will be volume of about 150 pages
WASHINGTON Special: Postmaster general
Gresham told friend day or two ago that he
would remain in President Arthur's Cabinet
until next March, when he expected to settle in
Indianapolis and engage in the practice of law.
Meanwhile he will take the stump, and make
campaign speeches in favor of Blaine and Logan.
ALTHOUGH not in any sense a candidate for
the position, Hon. Barnabas G. Hobbs, of Parke
county, has been widely mentioned in con
nection with the Office of Superintendent of Pub
lie Instruction on the Republican State ticket
Professor Hobbs's long services in education, his
high character and well-known abilities, would
make him not only a strong candidate, but
capable and honored officer.

Emery storrs as an Orator.

"Gath's" Notebook.
The best speech made at the Chicago conven-
ton was not reported. II was by Emery Storrs
the night after the nominations were made. 1
had never heard this celebrated stage talker be-
fore, and listened with some curiosity to what
he might have to say. He is man by no means
of an imposing appearance with a rather hol-
low stomach, a face somewhat turned to one
side, a sallow skin, and his voice is pitched in
conversational tone At first he seemed a lit
tie embarrassed, spoke with his eyes on the
floor, was turning from side to side, but in few
minutes he got the gauge of the audience, and
from that time onward every sentence that l
heard, and 1 remained there perhaps half an
hour was full of meat, thought, sarcasm and
philosophy. He announced that he did not be-
heve in the remnant that he thought everybody
was better than somebody, and in this line he
proceeded 1t seemed to me that the matter of
his discourse was better than Ingersolrs. Inger-
soil is a little of demagogue the platform,
and for an effect will smirch fact Storrs
spoke like a lecturer, and worldly philosophy
was broad and abundant in him.

A LIFELONG Republican" urges Mr..
Blaine, through the accommodating columns
of the New York Evening Post to step out of
the presidential race. By doing this great act,
the patriot says, Mr. Blaine would not only
cause himself to be greatly loved and es-
teemed by the country at large, but would de-
prive the Democratic party of all hope and
comfort because they desired his nomination
above that of all other Republican candidates.
Should thisingenuous suggestion reach the eye
of Mr. Blaine, he may be expected to take the
matter under immediate advisement. "What
fools we mortals bel"

The lines of the campaign are rapidly forming
The Republican phalanx is already coming to
Fright dress" An appeal is being made to
those who falter to reconsider and to 'fall in
quickly The way of return is yet open, but
the day is not far distant when all who are not
for us must be classed as against us.
The question once more is whether
Republican or Democratic ideas
shall prevail. The Republican party
is again determined to win, honestly believing
that Republican principles are the nations
safety. There has not yet been campaign in
which some few, more OF less, did not ''flock
by themselves" but the party as body al
ways went on, and left the 'stragglers' to
take care of themselves. In six campaigns the
Republican party has triumphed, and in the
seventh it will not fail The nation cannot
afford to abandon Republican principles, and
the people will not suffer it.

'THE indianapolis Journal makes the ap-
pearance Of Mr. Tilden's letter declining to be
considered a candidate for the Democratic
presidential nomination the occasion for an
indecent and vicious attack upon that great
statesman-a man who has done more to
purify governmental methods than any other
person of this generation, The conduct of
the Journal, violent and preiudiced partisan
newspaper is in marked contrast with the
course of both the Herald and the News, of
Chicago, which are fair organs of the Repub-
lican party. The Chicago journals referred
to speak in the highest praise of Mr.. Tilden S
public services and accord to him the merit of
great and deserved eminence in statesman
ship"
The South Bend Times would show itself
to be more honorable and less INSCRIPTIONS
were it to indicate wherein the journal was
either ''vicious' or 'indecent" in what it
said of Mr. Tilden and his letter, instead Of
talking of the Chicago Herald and the Chi
cago News as ''fair organs of the Republican
party" The Herald is distinctly Democratic,
and the News is not Republican, never has
been, and opposes Mr.. Blaine. To talk about
the debaucher of New York ballot-boxes in
1868, and the author of the cipher dispatches
of 1876, as man who has done anything ''to
purify governmental methods" is to talk
driveling idiocy and to insult the common
sense of the people.
