correct methods and unassailed integrity.
The entire Democratic campaign has seemed
to turn upon comprising the defeat Of
"Rhody" Shiel, because he is an Irishman,
because he is Catholic, and more than all,
probably, because the possession of the money
of the State is all-important to the Democrat
ic party. In the person of Hon. Barnabas c.
Hobbs the educational system of the State
will not be in the hands of tyro who never
taught school, or knows nothing of the prac-
teal workings of education, or who went into
education because he had failed in other
things Prof. Hobbs is a man of the largest
experience in educational matters; repre-
sentative of that denomination which posi-
lively stands for all that is advanced
in moral worth and political thought.
Mr.. w. NJ. Hoggatt, for Reporter of the Su-
preme Court, is a lawyer of ability, culture
and character and is, BESIDES a representa-
tive of the extreme Southern parto the State.
Hon. William c. Wilson, for Attorney-gen-
eral, is lawyer of brilliant attainments and
of large and distinguished service at the bar.
Hon. Edwin P. Hammond is candidate for
reelection to the judgeship of the Supreme
Court, position he so worthily and satisfac-
torily fills. The ticket is essentially State
ticket. 1t represents the north east, south
and west; it represents the younger, the mid
dle-aged and the elder in the party; it repre-
sents its moral, aggressive and conservative
elements; it represents the agricultural, the
business, the professional, the moral and the
religious elements of society. The Journal
can cordially, and without reservation, appeal
to all the people in hearty, earnest, unani-
nous support of the entire State ticket.

TO YOUR OARS.

Let Republican workers now bend to their
time but for few. A race is often lost by
inattention at the last squirt on the part of
the enemy might carry him to the goal ahead
of us. Let every effort be put forth from now
until the polls are closed tomorrow night.
Nobody is too good to enjoy good govern
ment; nobody is too good to owe
it to society and to his country to
work for its honor and welfare. A
serious and imminent danger threatens
the political fabric of this country; grievous
disgrace would be put upon it in event hon
orable and good men fail to do their duty to-
ward warding it off This is no time to
argue. You know what the danger is; you
know the threatened disgrace. Both may be
avoided, though desperate and determined
effort will be made on the part of the enemy to
win for free trade and to place dishonorable,
unclean man in the high seat once occupied
by Washington, Lincoln and Garfield. The
conscience OF the Nation revoltS at the sug-
gestion, but the danger is real, none the less.
To-day and tomorrow are left for work-not
day not an hour more. Wednesday morn
ing will find the financial and industrial sys-
TENS of the country assured, Or in the hands
of the party that despises nationality and all
things suggesting union between the
States That day, but forty eight hours
away will find the American people
honored by the election of an acknowledged
great and patriotic statesman, in the person of
James G. Blaine OF disgraced by the elevation
of his opponent, confesaing sins that should

utmost vigilance should be exercised to insure
a fair and free election. Overconfdence
might lose victory well in hand. Imbecile
supineness is equally dangerous. Let the
best men in the State turn out and
take hand in working for the public welfare
and honor. "A grand pull all along the line
will do much to convince the old South of the
error of its ways and to extend helping hand
to that new South rising from the ashes of the
DID, and which is doing much noble work to-
ward effecting complete reconciliation,
and joining in the grand march
toward greater national prosperity. Let
every citizen intent upon the national
and moral progress of the country come to
the front while the last grand charge is made

MR.. HENDRICKS DBMORAL1zED.

From his first speech at Connersyille, in
which he abjectly begged for votes, the posi-
ton of Mr. Hendricks has been pitiable to ais
friends, and a dishonor to himself and the
State. Tied to man in every way his in
ferior, mentally morally and politically, Mr..
Hendricks was unable to conceal his disgust,
and to friend in Dubuque acknowledged that
the propriety of removing him from the head
thought advisable at that stage of the canvass.
Mr.. Hendricks, of course, greatly desires to
carry Indiana as personal trophy, and to that
end does not hesitate to abase himself, and to
do anything that will contribute thereto.
The Lafayette Courier of Saturday evening
has the following:
ga gentleman in this city, supposed to be
an independent, received by mail this morn
ing ticket direct from Mr. Hendricks, at the
head of which are the Cleveland and Hen
bricks electors, but below these the full Repub-
lican State ticket This ticket, trading off
Gray for Hendricks, can be seen at the Courier
office by any one interested 1t shows several
facts very plainly:
lndU MI WILL SttCIllCo
anything and anybody for his own self-ag
grandizement.
80. That the Democrats have given up all
hopes of electing their State and national
tickets
IS. That Mr.. Hendricks in his despair, is
clutching at the idea that honorable men will
aid him in his efforts to trade his associates
for himself"
1t may be said that in doing this, Mr.. Hen
bricks is doing nothing more than are all
other of the Democratic candidates. The
Democratic canvass has gone to pieces, and it
is every candidate for himself. Particularly
is this true of John J. Cooper whose election,
for some reason which may not be so hard to
guess, seems to be of the utmost import
anee to certain leading Democrats. But
for a candidate for the presidency to
engage in such methods is certainly new
feature in national politics. 1t illustrates Mr..
Hendricks desperation. Said Mr.. Hendricks
at Fort Wayne-'1f I must be defeated, let
it be so; but for Gods sake, do not let the
blow come from Indiana 1t will be seen
that Mr.. Hendricks is ready to do all he can
personally TO avert the inevitable

Democratic enterprise of very extensive
proportions. The $1,000 men employed
in the mills and factories of this district need
a friend at court and have had one in
the person Of Mr.. Peelle, who has ever proved
himself a reliable ally, an able advocate in
that great body of awmakers for the Nation.
These two reasons ought to give Stanton J.
Peelle majority that will admit of no over
throw by hostile House, anxious for an ex-
cuse to again disfranchise the people of this
district. The next House will either be Re
publican or Democratic by very mar
row margin. The Indiana delegation
will be greatly changed by the
return of several Republican members in
place of Democrats now in office. The peo-
pie are aroused to the importance of having
national representatives that shall represent
national interests in the way they should be.
The capital district should see to it that its
great industries are represented by man
who believes in putting American men and
American mills beyond the danger of dis
astrous pauper-paid British competition, and
the name of that man is Stanton J. Peelle.

BLAINE OR OLEvELANDq

Taking the Democratic estimation Of Blaine
and Democratic admissions concerning the
character Of Cleveland, which should be
elected There is but one thing, upon which
changes have been rung brought against the
Republican nominee-that he was engaged in
questionable railway speculation, but which
has never been brought home to him as an
official. His life as public servant is i'm
pregnable; he has never been guilty of using
his office to advance private interests, and no
one has been able to even make it appear so.
For the sake of argument let it be conceded
that Mr.. Cleveland is equally free from
official untrustworthness. The two men,
then, must be compared in their private char
actets. Are the alleged speculations in stocks
made by Mr. Blaine as hateful to the people,
as inimical to the interests of society, as are
the acknowledged seduction and abandonment

stripe, who carry their convictions to the best

THE VETO OF THE AhTl-CHlkESE
BOOKKEEPING BILL

Was announced in the Assembly last
night. This is an illustration of the
warm and hearty sympathy which
exists between the King and the
cabinet, since all the cabinet favor
ed and voted for the bill, and Neu-
mann staked his reputation upon
upon it's passage. Poor Paul AT
ter the announcement Of the veto,
he wandered out into the hall and
gloomily contemplated the shadows.
His emotions well nigh suffocated
him as he thought of the vast horde
of fraudulent chinese who would stick
their tongues into their cheeks and
wag their tails and sweetly smile,
and keep on keeping their accounts
in hieroglyphics. The thought
was to much for him, and he went
out and leaned his curly head against
concrete pillar and wept. poor
Paul, we feel for you.

WHAT THE OPPOSITION HAS ACCOM-
PLlSHED.

The Organ of the Government
ring declares that the Opposition
has accomplished nothing; and
sneeringly asks what measures they
have passed, and what captives they
have brought home to Rome bound
to their chariot wheels. In the sense
that the Free sSSoilers of the United
States failed to accomplished any
thing in 1852 and 1856, the Opposi-
tion has accomplished nothing. In
the sense that they have been able
to stem the torrent of extravaganza,
collusive raising of salaries, and
corrupt buying of votes they have
accomplished nothing. In the sense
that they have been able to arouse a
sense of honor, Of decency, of
loyalty in the breasts of the office
holding assemblymen, they have ac-
complished nothing. In the sense
that they have convinced the King
that his present course is impolitic,
unconstitutional and suicidal, they
have accomplished nothing But
what the opposition has accom-
plished, is, the demonstration that
among Hawaiians and foreigners,
men Of honor, men of principle who
can not be bought with money or
office, still exist in the Kingdom,
and are willing to sacrifice their time,
their money and their personal com
fort for the public good, 1t has
succeeded in unearthing and bring
ing light more illegality, more scan
dals, and more dishonest jobbery than
has disgraced the history of the
Government from the time ofKameha-
meha l. to the initiation Of the Kala-
kaua-Gibson combination. 1t has
succeeded in arousing public atten-
tion and public opinion from the
lethergy which has bound it for
years, and focused it upon the nest
of corruption which poses under the
name of the Hawaiian Government.
As the party Of freedom sustained
defeat for years in the United States,
but was finally triumphant, and as
the people Of Norway have for
seventy years struggled for constitu-
tional liberty and conquered it from
an unwilling sovereign, so is the
independent opposition to day,
although not yet triumphant, undis-
couraged and ready to continue the
