THE BLAINE LIBEL.

LOUISVILLE, KY, August 18.--Mr.
Wattersou returned home from Virginia
Beach yesterday and wrote the following
double lear ID editorial for this morning 8
Courier-Journal: ''The Democracy OF
the Union and especially the Democracy
OF Indiana, should and will promptly
and equlvocally disown responsibility for
the assault upon Mr.. and Mrs. Blaine
made by the indianapolis Sentinel. We
war not ON women. The Indianapolis
paper represents anything but itself. Mr..
Blaine has instituted a suit at law, and
thereby hangs an issue between him and
his assallant. In the meantime the great
Democratic party will not be diverted
from its pursuit of Mr.. Blaine's public
career by any private scandal whatever.
TO the integrity OF the good woman who
for thirty years has preslued over MIR.
Blaine's household--recognized by all
who knew her. to be the best OF wives
and mothers-an entire generation OF
testimony may be called and will conf
IDENTIFY and cordially answer, and the
only effect of the senseless and wicked
invasion of the home life Of the eminent
and corrupt statesman who heads the
Republican ticket-the one redeeming
feature OF his career-will be to furnish
him an opportunity to pose in the char
acter of defender OF the treside and
heArthstone and his own honor, a char
acter offering special opportunities for
hislrionic display, and driving directly at
the most susceptible corner OF the popu-
lar heart. 1t is the purpose to advance
this wanton attempt to destroy an honest
domestic fabric as an offset against the
personal attacks made by the Republicans
upon Governor Cleveland. Two wrongs
do not make right, nor are the cases IN
anywise alike, the one case involving
nothing more important than the chastity
of a bachelor, the other the foundations
of family. We turn away with scorn
and loathing from an inquiry which
right-thinking Democrats everywhere
will denounce equally with right think
ing Republicans as the emanation, not
20 much of partisan malice and rancor, as
of newspaper recklessness and sensational
blackguardsm."

Grover Cleveland made New Year
gifts to the Buffalo newspaper carriers to
the amount of rs cents, when he was
Sheriff of Erie county, N. Y, and charged
it to the county. He also purchased for
his private Office brush and comb, with
which to keep his oiled locks smooth and
nice. and charged it to the county. The
Democratic Board of Supervisors paid
both these items and many others just
like them. These little incidents are
mentioned by the Buffalo papers merely
as samples to illustrate the generosity
and the frugal, thrifty instincts of the
'sreform" candidate. Chicago Journal

JEFFERSON.

IT will he remembered that the sheriff,
iustices of the peace, marshals and con-
stables in this county appealed from the
decision of the county board last fall, in
regard to the fees allowed in criminal
cases. The Board employed Col. G. w.
Bird.to assist the District Attorney in de
Tending the county on the appeals.
When tie cases were brought up in the
circuit court in June counsel for the
county demurred to the complaint. and
upon stipulation the demurrer was ar
gued before Judge Bennett, in GAINESVILLE,
last Monday. After argument the de
murrer was sustained, on the ground
that, "the revised statutes contain no
provisions for paying officers fees in
criminal cases of any kind" This decis
ion disposes of the cases on appeal and
the appellants have no redress, but have
to pay the costs already made.

THE N. Y. INDEPENDENT BOLT.

The New York Independent, which
has vigorously supported Cleveland
since his nomination takes it all back,
and bolts the Democratic candidate open
ly. The Buffalo business on Cleveland
is SO clearly defined that the Independ-
ent can have nothing more to do with
him on purely moral grounds. Follow
ing is portion of its article:
"We hence desire to have all our read
ers plainly understand, once for all, that
whatever has been said in the editorial
columns OF the Independent favorable to
the election of Grover Cleveland was said
prior to the recent sickening disclosures
in regard 10 his private character which
have Justly shocked the moral sense of
all pure and right-minded people. The
attempt now to force such candidate
upon the people would in our opinion
disgrace the party which nominated him,
and the whole Nation if he should be
elected. We have no hand or voice in
helping on this matter, let the conse-
quences be what they may, and we will
not advise the readers of the independent
to smother fheir consciences and disgrace
themselves by engaging directly or indi-
rectlv in any such movement.
ave are now in serious difficulty as a
Nation III regard to the uncheck ed pro-
gress of Mormonlsm; and shall We now,
in the face of threatening evils and perils
plunge into deeper gulf by any SEEM
ing Indifference as to the private charact-
er of one who has been nominated to fill
the highest Office in the gift of the pee
pie? We say no! thousand times no!
Governor Cleveland should positively
decline to be candidate and withdraw
Immediately from the canvass and be
compelled to do il if it is necessary. The
party which nominated bim through Its
chosen representatives should then re-
convene and select new ticket that will
comman the hearty support of the peo-
pie OF all parties There is time enough
to do this, and there is no hope or safety
in any other course. To stand still now
or to attempt to go blnd!y forward with
| the present ticket would in our judgment
be an insult 10 the Ruler OF nations,
sure death to the Democratic party,
including also its leaders, and an ever
lasting disgrace to the Republic"

During the storm on Tuesday morning
VIM. Hake, who lives south of Jefferson,
lost his barn and grain stacks; the fire
was caused by lightning.
On Sunday morning last mar drove
up to the Newton bouse and told the
landlord he would like to stay until
Monday morning. He had his horse put
in the barn, took breakfast, and remained
until after dinner, since which time he
has not been seen. He left horse, top
buggy and harness for Able & Kretlow
to take care of. The man said he was a
farmer and lived in Aztalan. There is
suspicion that the property was stolen
and the suspicion is grounded on the
appearance of the horse, which was well
wearied and showed saddle gals, which
indicated that it had been ri dden long
distance before the harness and buggy
were found.-Ledder. \.

BLAINE In THE SoUTH.-Azariah
Boody, who is for Blaine, says that he
was lately speaking to Mr.. Johnson
from Macon, Ga, and asked him why
the Southern States did not break up
their solidity. johnson replied that there
were great many men in the South who
would not feel distressed if Blaine was
elected. Boody says that when he began
to build railroads in this country there
were not fifty miles of road running. He
took the first large contract in the coun-
try, considered stupendous i'll its day, to
build the railroad from Springfield to
Worcester, Mass. He also built the
railroad from Lockport to Buffalo, which
became part of the New York Central.
He built the railroad from Atlanta to
Macon, employing 1000 men, somewhere
about the time of the Mexican War
