Il seems cruel TO prod the Republicans

have occurred from their party and es-
peoially concerning that Of Wayne Mac
Veagh. They seem sorest over that
They are taxing their ingenuity most
severely to prove that Mr. MacVeagh
never was a sound Republican and that
though a brilliant man once, he is an ex-
cessively foolish one now.
One Of the funny examples Of the
food of apologies and explanations is
from an editor who performed a sus-
picious flop himself, accepted an Office

tion whatever. got curiously riled when

Mr. MacVeagh is aware Of the awful dan

shock and shake the Harrisonized editors.
He states, distinctly, that, even the aver

"false alarms" of this campaign. Mr..
MacYeagh is wiser and far more learned
than an average man, hence he cannot be
frightened at a false alarm that should

eEAuTIFuL AUTUMN pIsPLAY.
Hundreds visit the Annual Fall Display

Hundreds Visit the Annual Fall Display
of seasonable Wares of Kennard q Co.
Last evening when Kennard & Co.
opened their doors, which had been
closed at 8 o'clock to prepare for their
annual Autumn display, there were
many women awaiting admission, and
hundreds came and went during the
evening, all feeling amply entertained
by the feast of handsome silks, dress
goods and novelties which had been
tastefully arranged for their inspection.
The first thing that strikes the eye of
the visitor is the counter display of fine
table linen and towels. The table linen
is immaculate The towel designs
are entirely new and very
effective. In this department is a fine
display of down quilts, ranging in price
from So to 500 each, and cotton com
fortables. The ceiling is festooned
with special designs in down
oline pillows. The display in
the glove, lace, fan and ribbon depart
ment is beautiful including everything
new in the lines of trade The dress goods,
coat and blanket displays are very fine.
The general effect is enhanced by many
beautiful tropical plants and still further
at night by the brilliancy of the many
electric lights
A noteworthy feature of this opening is
that no goods are displayed which are
not of Kennard & Cos regular stock,
and the decorations are all also taken
from their shelves The artistic arrange
ment of the wares and the decorations
were all prepared by the employees, nc
outside or professional decorator being
called in, and every one naturally take;
great pride in the exhibit.
The beautiful shades Of the evening
silks contrasted with the heavier tones
of the fall and winter dress goods. com
bined with the rainbow-hued display o.
ribbons and the soft creamy laces, gar
nished with the green of a few palm
and potted plants, makes an exhibition
well worth seeing.
No goods were sold last night, and tn,
display may be seen for the rest of thi
week, with the exception of that spread

George TiclSnor Curtis has formally
abandoned the Democratic party. This
is logical. He has always believed that
it was the province Of the government to
tax the masses of the people for the
benefit of favored few, and the man
who holds 20 that theory is not in sym
pathy with the vital principle of the
Democratic party. If he is so devoted to
this theory of injustice that he can con-
sent TO see state lines obliterated and
local autonomy crushed out that il may
survive he certainly belongs in the Re
publican party. That is Republicanism

A LITTLE HISTORY.

The newspapers have been devoting
some attention to the war record of
Whtelaw Reid, which is calculated to
stop his paper, and the Republican party
generally, from the silly crusade that
was begun against Stevenson.
General Dix was the famous war gov.
ernor of New York He it was who
issued the popular order 'If any man
attempts 20 haul down the American
flag shoot him on the spot. But when
Mr. Reid wrote of him: ''The. warrior
with an epigram for record, was
among the mildest of his sneers. "a
professional oflice-seeker with political
convictions hung on swivel was an
other Referring TO James g. Blaine he
said
In no one Of these vocations had he
made much more than comfortable
livelihood, when in 1862 he was elected to
congress, The pay of that Office was
then, we believe, $4,000 year It has
since been increased. but there has been
no time when Mr. Blaine's legitimate in
come was likely to prove much more
than enough for his style of living. Yet
in 1862 he was poor man. He has come
in 1872 to be reckoned by his friends and
neighbors in Augusta millionaire.
And again in 1872 when General Gar
field and General Wilson were catching
it, he said:
The startling exposure of Speaker
Blaine's venality in connection with the
Union Pacific railroad, Eastern division,
entirely destroys, of course, whatever
credit people may have given to his eva
sive denial Of the Cakes Ames bribery
and puts the whole case OF the Credit
Mobilier upon different basis. Now il
is shown that Mr. Blaine never deserved
his good reputation. He had taken
bribes in another case; he was habitually
for sale he had made a fortune by the
prostitution of his conscience.
These records were probably influential
in causing Mr.. Reid to issue orders that
no aspersions were TO be made against the
record of Mr. Stevenson. He recognized
the fact that a man might not have been
so "trooly loil' as some radicals de-
manded several years ago and still be a
patriot now.
That is wise This is campaign of
reason and education. It is public dis
cussion of the object and purposes OF
taxation and the right of home rule in
which everybody is interested and
everybody is loyal War records
have nothing TO do with the present
issues at ALL Mr.. Reid is as honest and as
patriotic as General Harrison aud neither
one Of them is more honest and more
patriotic than Mr.. Stevenson.
What Mr.. Reid said about General Dix
was true. General Dix was dema
gogue.
What he said about Blaine was alsC
true and Mr. Reid was honest in saying
it, Blaine was dishonest, he could not
have acquired wealth without being dis
honest.
Mr.. Reids record, writing the truth
in those respects is honorable to him as
it is honorable in him now TO refuse tC
impeach an honest and honorable mar
like Mr.. Stevenson for not engaging in
war against his brothers which he be
lieved to be unnecessary and cruel, anC
which he knew might have been an,
should have been averted.

PRESIDENT HARRISON Is most unpopu-
lar where he is best known. He is not
popular now and never has been popular
in Indiana. But the opposition which
will center about Judge Gresham and of
which he is the exponent, is not so per
sonal to General Harrison as II is fatal TO
the prohigate monopoly which he repre-
sents. This opposition is opposed TO the
perversion Of the party into a means to
promote favorites, to punish integrity,
20 repay campaign subscriptions. There
are many Republicans in Indiana who
advocate Judge Gresham as candidate
for the presidency because, as Mr. Bayard
says Judge Gresham is man of
lSnightly character, impulsive, courage
GUS and disinterested. For the cause he
believes to be just he will encounter
