NOWHERE outside of Kentucky could
such a horrible crime 6ccur as the kill
ing of a bridegroom, bride and clergy
man while standing at the marriage
altar. The assassination was simply a
renewal of the Hatfield Mccoy vendetta
which has been waged so long and with
such terrible results. The world would
be the gamer if every member of the
two families should suddenly find ropes
around their necks.

. CIRCULAR addressed NaTo the color,

A CIRCULAR addressed "To the colored
voters of indianapolis" has been widely
circulated. 1t informs them that now is
the time to assert their independence
and prove their power, and that the way
tn do it is by voting the straight Demo-
cratic ticket in the city election. They
are told that the colored people have no
show under the present city govern
ment, and that their only chance lies in
Democratic success. This is important.

For Mayor of Indianapolis, the Senti-
mel said recently, was needed ga man
who is thoroughly identified with the
interests of the city; a man of good abil-
ity, high character, broad views and
progressive ideas; a man of life and ac-
ton, physically as well as mentally;
equipped for the multifarious and i'm
portant duties which devolve upon the
chief executive of such a city as Indian
apolis. Above all, we want a man who
cannot be controlled or managed by the
corporations and rings; a man of SO much
uprightness of purpose and force of
character that he al be depended upon
to rise superior to the influences, the
more dangerous that they are often ex-
erted so insidiously, which such combi-
nations always bring to bear upon the
head of the municipality"
General Coburn might have sat for
that photograph. He fills the bill per-
fectly. Hisproved ability, his long identi-
fcation with the interests of the city, his
large knowledge of public affairs, his
incorruptible integrity, his indomitable
energy and public spirit all mark him as
the man for the place. By the way,
what record has his opponent?

So far as the personality of Mr.. Coy is
concerned, it is. of course, not involved in
the campaign to a greater extent than that
of any one of the other twenty-four Demo-
cratic nominees for the Council. or of any
one of the actual or prospective Republican
nominees.
This is the Sentinel's way of opposing
Coy. 1t has always opposed him in the
same way. From his entrance into pol
itics to the present time, during the
prosecution of the tally-sheet forgeries
and after his conviction, it has never
opposed him in any other way. All its
opposition to Coy has been to the effect
that he is a much prosecuted man, and
if he has done some bad things in poll
tics, Republicans. have done much worse.
This is the position of the News also.
1t is the keynote of Democratic reform.
