NOT A CANDIDATE.
The Hon. 7, X Cobb's POsIiion-OnIy Two
AvOwed Candidates for Governor.


iNincepnes News.l
The frequent mention Of the Hon. Thomas
Il. Cobb's name with the nomination for
governor, and the desire on the part of dis
Trends that ne cross swords with the able
and distinguished gentlemen DOW in the
fieId-the hon. William r. Myers and
Congressman Matson- led the Nelrs to seek
an interview with Mr. Cobb and ascertain
his views and feelings.
Since the public announcement made by
Judge Niblack, in which he stated that be
did not desire bis name TO be used to Mr..
Cobb's prejudice, it was thought by Mr..
Cobb's friends that he could be induced TO
enter the list.
In brief interview Mr.. Cobb stated his
position, 1t clearly shows to his friends
his feelings in the matter, but whether
they will cease to push his claims remains
to be seen. At any rate, the following
plainly places Mr.. Cobb in the position Of
q non-aspirant for gubernatorial honors.
Mr.. cobb, your friends over the dis
trict and state are anxious that you enter
the contest for the nomination for gov
eTnor. Have you anything to tell them
through the columns OF our paper?' asked
the reporter.
MIR. Cobb said that his friends for many
Weeks hsd spoken and written to him re-
garding the nomination. To all he had
said that he was not seeking the nomina-
tion, and that is my position now. / was
and am thankful to my friends for their
endorsement, but am not and will not be
q candidate for the nomination for gov
ernor."
Should circumstances existing at the
state convention cause Mr.. COBB to be
named as the standard ,bearer, he will then
resume active political life, from which he
retired at the end of his successful con-
gressionsl career, and do battle for the
cause of democracy However, Mr.. Cobb
does not regard such a contingency as
likely to arise.
Mr.. Cobb is not an aspirant for the nom-
ination, as the above indicates and this
leaves Mr.. Matson and Mr.. Myers the only
aYoWed candidates now in the field.

directors, who are asking the appropria-
board of commissioners that stock in the

In an Old New England town
A truthful tale is handed down
About one Burke-the name he bore
once brought him fame il nothing more.
This fellow late one summer night
Was Keeling home IN sorry plight;
a rustic bridge was on his way,
Which in dark willow shadows lay.
He, lurching as a tippler can,
Within the shades his walk began:
But while he pitched from side TO side
A voice close by him ieering cried:
'Burke's drunk in hosrse, loud tones twas
said.
And then another lust ahead
Called out the same, till all around
"Eurke Is drunk" was heard in mocking sound.
No wonder angry wishes rose
Io clutch and smite these hidden foes,
But all his limbs had lost their might,
ills tpsy form refused 10 fight.
But something from his coat he drew
And liercely at the shadows threw.
IL was his precious bottle, worth
Far more TO him than all on earth.
He risked his Joy, his hope, his all.
Bat louder still "Burke's drunk they cali.
His courage lost, his spirits gone,
There's naught TO 10 but struggle on.
But who are they that boldly dare
The mUcdIed wayfarer TO scare
They are a Etaunch cold-water band,
AND they are known through all the land.

White County Democrat.
One of the most recent foul falsehoods
set afoat by that prince of liars. the India
nspolis Jotn0i, is to the effect that the
democratic board of commissioners OF
Marion county re-appointed Bernhamer
and other election inspectors concerned in
the election frauds at Indianapolis in 1886.
Nothing does the little one-horse mud
singers of the republican press more good
or causes them more Joy, however, than TO
reprint these shiny falsehoOds for the edit
cation of their readers. They seem consti-
tutionally built that way and have become
90 used TO lying that the truth would give
them the nightmare.
