ballot box there shall be absolute
equality. No interest can be truly sub
served, whether local or general, by any
envasion of this great principle. The
wise work of our fathers in constructing

internal dissension and all. tests of ex-
ternal assault, if we can only preserve
pure, free ballot.-IndianapOlis, July

hope the time is coming, and has
even now arrived, when the great sense
of justice which possesses our people
will teach men of all parties that party
success is not to be promoted at the ex-
pense of injustice to any of our citizens.
There is sense of
justice, of fairness, that will assert itself
against attempts to coin party advan-
tage out of public wrong. The day when
men can be disfranchised or shorn of
their political power for opinions sake
must have an end in our country.-In-
dianapolis, July 9th, 1888.
Any disturbance of the suffrage any
where affects us all.
If the debate upon public questions is to
be of value, the voter must be free
to register his conclusions. The trl-
bunal which is to pronounce upon the
argument must not be coerced.-In-
dianapolis, July 2Sth, 1888.
Citizenship has its duties as well as its
privileges. The first is that we give our
energies and influence to the enactment
of the just, equitable and beneficent
laws. The second is like it-that we
Loyalty reverence and obey the will of
the majority enacted into law whether
we are of the same majority or not.
There is an open avenue through the
ballot-box for the modification or repeal
of laws, which are unjust or oppressive.

THE MINISTER KNEW A JACKPOT.

THE MINISTER KNEW JACKPOT.
The minister of Western church not
long ago preached sermon on card
playing, and at its close he remarked:
"Will the brethren now in the house
who know how to play poker hold up
their hands?"
He waited minute and not hand
went up.

then, "but l did not think so many of
you knew how
There was sensation in the church,
but the preacher concluded the services
quietly, and afJerward committee
waited on him.
1--WE come to ask what you meant by
saying that we all knew how to play
poker, when, in response to your inquiry,
not one of us responded" said the
spokesman, hOtly.
The preacher laughed soothingly.
Don't let your tempers get the better
of you, brethren" he replied; ''any man
who knows how to play poker isn't going
to show his hand unless he is forced to,
and you know it as we'll as l do"
The committee apologized and report
ed to the other members and the preach
ers salary was raised.-Detroit Free

The Republican party has walked in
the light of the Declaration of indie
pence. 1t has made the Union more per-
feet by making all men free.-IndIan-
apolis, July 4th, 1888.
The success of the Republican party
has always been identified with the glory
of the flag and the unity of the Govern
ment.-Indianapol July 9th, 1888.
The Republican party has walked up
on high paths. 1t has set before it ever
the maintenance of the Union, the hon
or of the flag and the prosperity of our
people. 1t has been an American party,
in that it has always set American inter
ests at the front.-Indianapolis, July
25th, 1888.
The Republican party has always stood
for election reforms. No measure tend
ing to secure the ballot box from fraud
has ever been opposed by its representa-
tives.-Indianapolis, August 18th, 1888.

The American Dollar.
THE SAME FOR ALL MEN AND AT ALL
TIMES.


TIMES.
This Government of ours cannot do
everything for everybody. The theory
of our Government is large individual
liberty. 1t is that we shall take out of
the way all legislative distractions to
the free, honest pursuit of all human
industries; that each individual shall, in
his own place, have the best chance pos
sible to develop the highest prosperity
for himself and his family. Some fHnc-
ft " hmnuSt provide currency for the use
of our people, for believe the time has
gone by which we will be content to re-
turn to the old system of an issue of
money by State banks. But l will not
discuss such questions. I only desire to
say this, which is common ground upon
which we can all stand, that whatever
the Government issues, paper or coin, it
must be good money. l have an idea
that every dollar we issue should be
as good as any dollar we issue;
for, my countrymen, paper or coin, the
first errand it does is to pay some work
ingman for his daily toll. None so much
as the laboring man and the farmer re-
uuire a full-value dollar of permanent
value the year round.-Omaha, Neb.,
May -, 1891.

ONE MAN, ONE VOTE; FREELY CA

ONE MAN, ONE VOTE; FREELY CAST
AND FAIRLY COUNTED.
The theory upon which our Govern
ment is builded is that every qualified
elector shall have an equal influence at
the ballot box with every other. Our
constitutions do not recognize fractional
votes; they do not recognize the right of
one man to count one and half in the
determination of public questions. 1t is
wisely provided that whatever differ
ences may exist in intelligence, in

JOSLIN.

JosLIN, Nov. 15.-Democracy, dem
ocracy, What hast thou done, democracy
The corn crop on the whole is q very
light crop.
Everything is reported to be quiet
along the Potomac, and at the white
house. Bahy Mckee seems to be vis-
ibly affected.
We do not expect to hear the mocking
bird or the sweet song of the nighting ale,
but on Thanksgiving day the marriage
bells will ring.
The democrats are celebrating their
victory by the booming of cannon. which
is very tantalizing and rather provoking
TO the republicans.
If any man thinks q original thought
and is brave enough to tell it to the
world he is termed q crack. We have
been called crank hundred times.
And in that connection the republicans
are sttributing their defeat to the pro-
hibitionists, that the prohibition party
is simply one wing of the democratic
party and that its speakers have been
paid by the democratic party.
The republican party is alone respon>
sible for its own defeat ard may be at
leyism, second to replacing such men 8
Logan, Garfield, Sumner and Garfield
with such men as Carkson, Quay and
Dudley, whilst the Australian sbsilot
system of voting has put the last nail in
the republican ccfin.
There are some republicans round Jos
in that are very angry at their defeat
and VOW they will Dave the Australian
ballot system repealed. Then at the
next annual election they will sock it
to 'em.
Miss Nan Clark and Mrs Z n Se.rle
and family from Ssc county, Iowa, are
| visiting with their relatives and friends
and will stay over Thanksgiving,
1t is thought By some that the republi
can party will now disband, and that h
liquor element of the psrty will attach
itself to the peoples party, while the
temperance element will join the Drohibi-
tiOnists.
Some of the leading republicans of
this locality are taking their defeat very
philos ophically, while others are vowing
vengeance, claiming that their overthrow
has been brought about by "blasted cor
ruption'' in allowing Han lrchists and
Hightalians TO vole."
We have tried to console several of
our republican friends by quoting pas
sages OF scripture hearing upon their I'D
versity, but they refuse TO be comf0rted .

Uses of Wire.

A few figures may be cited to illustrate
how Important a part wire plays in our
leading industries and manufactures. Tns
output Of coal in Great Britain alone,
which may be taken at fully 100000 .OGc
tons per annum, is mainly raised by the
agency of wire ropes. The Importance of
carding wire may be appreciated from the
fact that Great Britain's woolen export
trade Is worth 927, ,000.00 per annum The
consumption of wire netting is enormous.
and the annual output in America and
Europe of the one item of barbed wire for
fencinS-a comparatively new adaptation
is estimated to exceed 100, 600 tons.
The world wide use of wire for tele-
graphic and other electrical purposes is
