Because Of imperative engagements which
call for even more time than he has-the
preparation of venezuela's boundary case
for arbitration General Harrison cannot
make campaign speeches this year. His
letter, printed this morning shows how.
ever. that he is deeply interested in the
result for the same reasons that every
other man should be. The reasons which
he gives should have weight with every
voter who desires prosperity for himself
and the country. The friends of the free
coinage of silver for the owners of silver
bullion and silver mines have forced that
to the front as an issue. Those who are
leading in the movement in the country
are not all Democrats, but, rather, those
who are interested in silver production as
industry. General Harrison shows in a
few brief words that the defeat of the 16-
toll heresy is more important than any
thing before the people of Indiana, as was
the case two years ago. Side issues or per-
sonal disappointments should not obscure
the Importance of this issue.
Next in Importance is the support of the
administration in securing the fruits of the
war. A large majority of the Intelligent
people of the country believe that President
Mckinley has the craftsmanship necessary
to deal with these important affairs. Why
should they not express confidence in him
by their votes? A few days since Lord
Rosebery. the leader of the party in Great
Britain now in the minority, made a speech
declaring that the Ministry should have
the support of his party while the settle
ment of important foreign disputes was
pending. That should be a lesson to US.
AT least, Republicans, to a man. should

The Poseyville Qnd.) News is in state of
mind 1t seems the Republicans in one OF
the townships of Posey county have noml-
mated a colored man for township office,
whereupon the News says:
The nomination is an insult to every white
man in the county. Friends, has the time
come when the people of Posey are to as
sumo negro rule? We ask our readers TO
think of the matter seriously. Would you
like to have negro stand before you and
give you orders? The thought is enough to
make the blood boil in ones veins. Posey
county is a white mans home yet, and the
party that would attempt TO establish negro
rule should be buried under such an ava
lanche of votes that it would take it gen.
Grafton to reach the surface.
This has a fine old Bourbon ring about It..

the women to organize against colored hus-
bands. Negro rule in Posey county as

The Peru Republican prints letter from
Mr.. John B. Joyce, who two years ago
withdrew as a candidate on the Democratic
ticket, in Miami county, because he differed
with the party on the money question. He
is still opposed to the Democracy on the
same grounds. After referring to the busi7
ness conditions preceding the election of
1896 he thus pictures the results that fol-
lowed the victory for sound money in the
election of Mckinley:
Panic no Logger labor employed. interest
lowered substantially, farm lands becoming
desirable Investments, and If wages have
not been advanced steady employment and
general Improvement have taken the place
of idleness and inactivity, and hope and joy
have displaced gloom and despair. These
are Self-evident truths to every one who
does not deliberate ly shut his eyes and re-
fuse to see the better conditions in which
he finds himself and his friends Do
you want to send to Washington a Congress
that will stop and turn back the wave of
prosperity that is now spreading over our
country? Do you realize that you do not
have to vote for those conditions in order
to bring them about? You can bring them
simply by neglecting to vote against them.
Therefore, it is the duty of every one who
desires better times and better conditions
for this country to beStir himself, because
it is to his own interest to see that every
vote in the country that will be cast against
reaction and obstruction gets into the ball
lot box on the 8th of November.

Democratic candidates for Congress and the

of opinion that the Democratic party will

In the number of men employed some fac

others have more and some the largest
number in their history This latter is true
of several of the largest plants. An in
creased number of men at work means an

show that South Bend is very prosperous.
and the Tribune says, editorially: THE
business conditions at South Bend indicate
the situation without, because the city
sends its manufactures into every part of
the Union. Consequently judging from the
prosperity which the city is enjoying. the
Nation is prosperous" AS this condition is
general why should the people vote for a

There were no girls schools in
Corea until lady missionaries took
up their cause; Tor woman in that
land occupies, at least in theory,
the subordinate position assigned
her in the Orient at large, based,as
in China, on strange dualistic
philosophy, according to which all
nature is ranged in contrasting
heaven and earth, light
and darkness, strength and weak
ness, virtue and iniquity, male and
female. A bride may be pur-
chased for few dollars. a visit
from her suitor on a white horse,
and four genuAexions. Yet does
the Corean woman occupy a very
important place in domestic life.
Her natural character is marked
by energy and perseverance.
While her husband sits and
smokes and "koo-lIng" ("enjoys
scenery") she swings her washing
sticks, cooks the family rice, works
at all needed tailoring while the
house rings with her CHEEKY voice.
Never does she lose heart, as does
her liege lord, in the struggle with
starvation, and often her industry
sustains the ruin-threatened home.
Recent statutory changes have
wrought some improvement in the
Corean woman's social lot; she
cannot be compelled to marry
under sixteen years of age; and
while the ladies OF higher rank go
forth only in the well curtained
palanquin, the common women
now walk about freely, though all
but the humblest class have the
lace partly screened.
