tears up the earth in his behalf, sheds
great gobs of eloquence and tells
slanderous falsehoods in its frenzied
effort to elect him to Office.
Like Judge Lippy, Mistah Putrid
Hallucination Van Duce was himself
raised somewhere up North in com
munity of pul1es who consider the negro
their equal. And being a negro-lov-
ing Republican himself, he very nat
turally falls in at the heels of Judge
Lippy, the only man in Jackson coun-
ty who ever had the gall and the lack
of decency to try to put negro in
authority over white people in a white
mans country.
The Journal has nothing whatever
against Judge Lippman personally.
But his political record is public pro-
perty and a fit subject for public dis
eussion. And when man spends the
better part of his life in mereiless
fight upon the Democratic party, and
then, when he sees he following a for
lorn hope, aops over and wants the
same party which he has fought so
bitterly, to elect him to Office, how can
he expect to escape criticism?
The Journal has told nothing on
Judge Lippman but the plain, simple
unyarnished truth. He knows this is
a fact, and every one of the Older
citizens OF Jackson county know it is
a fact.
But the Judge lodges, paws the air
and brays, and tries to befuddle the
minds of the people by charging his
opponent, John Keel, with having been
the author of the editorial in this
paper which brought his record to
light. But a baser falsehood was
never uttered. John Keel never wrote
a line for this paper in his life. We
challenge Judge Lippman to prove to
the contrary, and will forfeit to any
church, fraternal or benevolent or
ganization IN Jackson county one
hundred dollars in cash if Judge Lippy
or his little hand organ, the Indepen-
dent, will prove by competent witnesses
that John Keel wrote the article or had
anything whatever to do with writing
it.
Now let Judge Lippy and his friend
Van Duce prove their charges, OF
stand branded as common liars.

CAN LIPPMAN PROVE IT?

We notice that Judge I1ippy, who
seems to think be is running for state
senator over in Jackson county, oc-
easionally dfons a penny in the slot
and his hand organ, the Newport In
dependent, proceeds to grind out a
tune" in which The Journal is
made the special object of their abuse
and ridicule.
There are four papers published in
Jackson county, but the Independent
is the only one that will stoop low
enough to publish the Judges rot, or
that has SO far forsaken the principles
of decency as to espouse his cause.
No real newspaper, or one that cares
anything for the best interests of its
community and the welfare of the peo-
pie, will ever allow itself to become
the hand organ of any man. The real
newspaper fights for principles.
and lets individuals take care
of themselves. The real newspaper
man knows neither friend nor foe in
the advocacy OF measures and princi-
pies of right. He hews to the line, let
the chips fall where they may: gives
facts and figures, is ever ready to up
hold the principles of right. keeps
close to the path of duty and persues
the even tenor of his way, regardless
Of the praise of friends or the criticism
of enemies.
But as the Independent and IT'S sour
Wy little Republican editor have never
been able to attain the above level, it
IS not surprising to sec them trailing
at the heels Of this arch enemy of the
Democratic party of Jackson county.
The independent and It's NANCY little
Republican editor were never known
to espouse a good cause during the
whole of their puny existence If Van
Duce should think one pure thought.
or give expression to one noble idea,
itwould astonish the good people Of
Jackson county as much as it would
to. see White river turn its course and
run upstream. Corruption, rotten
ness and moral decay may run ram
pant, crime go unpublished, the best
interests of the people and every
principle of right may be ruthlessly
trampled under foot, and yet the indie
pendent never raises its voice in pro-
test. But let some old broken-down
Republican politician, whose whole
life has been spent in a merciless war
fare upon the Democratic party, enter
the race for office and the Independent

New THEORY SUCCESSFUL
IN INDIANAPOLIS
L. T. Cooper Makes Many Converts During
-SI
Stay i'm That CITY.

k.The new theory (backed up by his
preparatory advanced by l.. T.
Cooper with regard to the cause of
most i'll health of the present genera
tion is being sown broadcast by this
young man.
Cooper believes that the human
stomach has become degenerate in
civilized races and claims that good
health is impossible unless the stom-
ach is re-vitalized. This he claims to
do with his preparation.
An article from the Indianapolis
Star during Cooper's stay in that city
has this to say of Cooper and his prep
aration: Residents of this city are
being astounded by l.. T. Cooper and
his new preparation.
Reports that preceded Mr.. Cooper's
visit here told of his success in other
localities, but the immense success of
his medicine and the general belief
in his theory was wholly unprece-
dented.
so great is the rush of the public
to this young man that people stand
in line waiting their turn for hours in
an effort to see him. The most inter-
esting feature of this is statements
made by reliable citizens as to the
actual accomplishments of Cooper's
medicine. Among recent statements of
this character the following is fair
example: 80
