LII General Harrison is not the nominee of
the Chicago convention the blame will not be
hard to locate, and it win rest with those who
are working to create division and diversion
in this State. What Republican of Indiana
will be willing to come back from Chicago and
face the people with any responsibility for
such RESULT It is very evident that Gen.
Harrison can be nominated if he is pressed
with the earnest. enthusiastic, united support
of his own State. Every Republican of Indiana
should consider it his duty to contribute to
such a contamination by every means in his

IT seems that the tail as we'll as the head of
the Democratic ticfet is on record against
second presidential term. In speech at
Columbus, o., Sept. 2, 1872, Judge Thur.
man said:
my friends, you will never have any gen.
uine reform in the civil service until you
adopt the one-term principle in reference to
the presidency. AS long as the incumbent
can hope for a second term he will use the
immense patronage of the government to
procure his denomination and secure his re-
election"
The speech was hitting at Grant. then, but
the words fit the present case to dot. Per-
haps when the old Roman goes to Washing
ton next week Cleveland and he will exchange
apologies-the former for having sent. de-
tective to investigate Thurman's personal
habits. and the latter for having denounced q

THE Republicans of Hendricks county, in
their county convention, adopted the follow
ing resolution:
Resolved, That We believe majority of
the people of every county. township, ward of
a city or town in the State should be empow-
cred by law to prohibit the sale of intoxicat-
ing liquor within its limits. and that where
majority favor saloons in any locality the
tax on the same should be placed high enough
to make the liquor trade contribute its full
share of the extra cost it occasions the people
of the State. and we hereby instruct our rep
resentatives this day nominated to vote and
work for the passage. of such q law"
1t does not require State convention to
let the people know, substantially. what will
be the attitude of the Republican party upon
the question of legislation upon the liquor
traffic. The Republican platform will declare
for local control, and such taxation of the
traffic where it exists as will lay upon it an
equitable share of the extraordinary burdens
it imposes upon the people. The Republic
an party will take no backward step, and
make no equivocal declaration on this SUBJ
ject. This may be depended upon now.

EFFORTS to enforce the Sunday closing law

stood long time looking in a dazed
way, then faced the central figure of
the painting, dropped on his knees and
began to pray. Suddenly he rose to
his feet and shouted. "Satan is
trying to mount with the angels" He
then drew a revolver and commenced
roof. Two policemen entered and he
fired at them, saying that unless he
killed the first FIVE policemen he saw he
would be hurled to hell. The insane
man was overpowered and taken to
the armOry.
