FAIR FRIDAY.

The one this week prom
ises to be this, so far as the
weather is concerned. But
whatever it is without, it
will be fair and pleasant
within. We have discovered
the secret Of it, and apply it
every week. It is to set
aside in some departments
special bargains in goods for
that day only. The result
to us has been a vast trade;
to our friends, vast saving.
Be sure and come early to
avoid the rush as much as
possible. But if you can't
the
SALE GOES ON ALL DAY!

BOYCOTTING the cheapest meats in the country
in order to get even with their producer would
seem to be biting off ones own nose to spite an
other mans face. -Philadelphia Times.
MASSACHUSETTS once had a prohibitory enact

THE growth of the opinion that has abolished
hell from the after-life has been marked by an
increased Indifference to moral responsibility in

OUR impression is that in the United States

THE Mormons will send back Game as Terrific

WHEN an effort is made by a bloody-minded
minority to o%verturn the government by vio-
lence, or to resist with force of arms the lawful
authority of its appointed representatives the
persons so arraying themselves against the Con-

most odious form. Chicago Tribune.
THE Republican party makes no ostentatious
pretensions, but is the real friend of labor in
every way. The Democratic party vociferates
all kinds of misleading expressions concerning
its friendliness to labor and laboring men. but
rests upon a platform every plank of which is
hostile to the interests of tho wags-workers.

The third party is an enemy not only of Re-

even that end. and that it's wish is simply to at

THE MEETING.

No urging will be needed to fill Tomlinson
Hall tonight with a representative audience
of the citizens of Indianapolis-of all classes
and of all political beliefs. Hon. John Sher-
man is a man that has a word to say to all
the people that is worth listening to and
worthy serious consideration. No public
man stands higher than he does in the public
esteem; none, certainly, have rendered more
substantial service to the country in the halls
of Congress and in the councils of administra-
ton. After a full third Of a century of pub
lie life-a life passed in the fierce light that
beats about the throne-he stands before his
fellow-countrymen with untarnished reputa-
ton, and with ever-increasing respect and
regard.
Mr.. Sherman will arrive this morning at
11:45 o'clock, and. be escorted to the Denison,
whence he will 60 to Hon. c.. L. Holstein's for
lunch. Between the hours of 3 and 4 o'clock

present at the meeting tonight.

THE Indianapolis Sentinel adheres to its
idiotic lie about Colonel Robertson's remark
at Portland, Jay county. The Fort Wayne
Sentinel, a Democratic paper published at
Colonel Robertson's home, under date of Mon
day, Oct. IL, said:
can item is going the rounds of the press,
criticising Colonel Robertson, of this city, for
making remarks about the beer-drinking Ger
mans of Allen county and the Prohibitionists
of Wayne county. Colonel Robertson never
made the remarks, and twelve of the most
prominent citizens of Portland, who heard
the speech, so state in this mornings Indian
apolis Journal"
The Fort Wayne Journal of Oct. 10, another
Democratic paper, which copied the foolish
ness from the Sentinel, of this city, in print
ing a card from Colonel Robertson denying
the report, says:
"While the editor of this paper is a Demo
crat from principle, he will not allow the col
umns of this paper to TEEN from day to day
with low lying and billingsgate for party ad-
vantage or political success"
1t seems that there is a good deal of differ
ence between Democratic papers published in
Indianapolis and in Fort Wayne.

THE Philadelphia Record, a wildly enthusi-
astic advocate of free-trade doctrines, insists
that the Democratic party is a free trade party,
but, being in the Hon. Samuel Randall's dis
trict, has the honesty to concede that there
may be a good many Democrats who cherish
a belief in the benefits of protection. To
such the Record offers a bit of advice, which
we commend to the attention of members of
the party everywhere as most excellent, and
which they will make no mistake in following
to the letter.
This is the conclusion the Record has
reached after what must have been a painful
course of observation of the uncertain hold
the average Democratic Congressman has
upon his principles:
"When the question to be decided by Il
true Democrat is whether he shall vote for a
Democratic protectionist, or for a protection
list Republican for Congress, he should cast
his ballot for the Republican candidate, for
he will always know where to find him."
A good many true Democrats in Indiana
will do well to consider this advice in all it's
bearings.

sober, unbiased men in the city of Indianapo-

prefer that Sim Coy and his kind should have
absolutely nothing to do with public affairs.

Of Sim Coy and his kind the better for every

ments that ever disgraced the county.

THE Indiana Advocate alludes to the fact
that no third-party Prohibition paper OF
speaker pays any attention to either the Liquor
League or the Democratic party, but all Energy
is devoted to the smashing of the Republican
party" There is nothing new in this. The
Journal has frequently called attention to it.
There may be, and doubtless are, many hon
orable, candid, sincere temperance men in the
third party, men who believe that there should
be temperance reform, and speak for it and
think about it; but the men who manage and
control the third party never think about that.
They care only to wreak their petty malice
and soothe their wounded vanity by attacking
the Republican party and the men with whom
they formerly acted politically.

OWING to the reduction of fares asked by
the elevated roads of New York city the cars
are crowded as never before, the companies
are making more money, and the people are
the gamers as we'll. More roads will have to
be built to accommodate the masses that wish
to get up and down town. The same thing,
on a smaller scale, might be experienced in
indianapolis. The fare for street-car transit
should be reduced. The expense of the COM
pany enjoying the monopoly of Indianapolis
streets is light, and the fare should be re-
duced. Three cents is enough for a ride
without a conductor, with five cents, perhaps,
for a ride that includes a transfer.

Of being so applied, it has been employed no
one knows how, and the treasury is empty.
The Sentinels readers are easily satisfied if
they do not demand a little more sincerity
and a good deal more truth from that paper.

The last license to sell liquor in Atlanta
has expired, and the Mayor has supplemented
this by vetoing the ordinance passed allowing
local breweries to supply private families with
beer. This makes the place practically prohi-
bition, and it is said that the city officials are
in the majority for that policy, though it
would not appear so from the action taken in
relation to the breweries. From this time
forward the friends Of prohibition expect to
see the law rigidly enforced. 1t probably will
be. for a time.

CONSIDERABLE talk has been provoked
among free-traders that all three men nom
mated for Mayor of New York city are free
traders, and from this it is argued that free
trade stands well there. How comes it, then,

mated for Congress in one of the city dis
trictsG AS Mayor, neither of them can hope
to do much for the cause.
