PERU. lad, Aug. 26-Hon. John L.
Farrar, of this city. ex-judge of the Circuit
Court, lifelong Democrat and one of the
ablest attorneys In the State, being we'll
known over Indiana. created consternation
in the old Bourbon ranks of this city yes
terday by the announcement that from
now on he was in favor of protection and
the principles as advocated by the Repub.
lican party 1t was as unexpected to the
Republicans as to his former friends the
Democratic Repu blicans are jubilant,
while Democrats are correspondinely de-
pressed. MIR. Farrar is too we'll known to
require detailed mention. as his name has
been leading one among the attorneys OF
Indiana for the past thirty years, and
veritsble household word In not only this
county but in those adjoining. The ao-
that all his lifetime Mr.. Farrar has been an
ardent Democrat, and at one time was
solicited to run for Congress in the Eleventh
district
Hesgives his ideas and principles as fol-
lows: That while he is Jeffersonian in
feeling, the course of the party in wander
ing away from those principles has con-
strained him to advocate and embrace the
cause OF protection. He is further willing
to assist the Republican party In series
of speeches to be given during the CAM
paign. which will begin on Saturday, Sept.
g. 1t 10 o WE'LL known fact that Democracy
of this county il in q bad fix. Constant
assertions, the revolt of tho Irish faction,
the hard work being done by the Repub-

sensions ali combine toward making them
desperate. The expose of . deficiency in
the county treasury and money being bor-
rOwed in the banks at per cent to tide
over unto November, as given by the Peru
Republican. is making them more nervous
than ever. Taken 10 whole, the prospect
for success of the Republican party In
Miami county was never better.

bility for tho exclusion of Mr.. Labouchere
from the Cabinet. More than this, rs to
the contents of the letter. Mr.. Labouchere
declined to divulge, but he added that the
letter would be published in next weeks

that he has not altered, and will not alter
his opinion OF the influences which caused
his exclusion from the Cabinet There is q
growing opinion that Mr. Laboucherc is
making fuss in order to add to the profits
of his paper. which has greatly increased
its sales this week.
The Times this morning suggests that
Mr.. Labouchere pleaded to be excluded
from the Cabinet to enable him to pose as
q martyr and adds: 1T is possible that
Mr.. Gladstone. finding Mr.. Labouchere dis
inclined TO join the Ministry, desired to
have his nom acceptance recorded In writ
ing. Mr.. Labouchere might at least re-
member that the Queen is precluded by her
position from defending herself. The
