$2,61340 from the treasnry of Johnson county', $290, on an for. each township, for tuition alone for two scholars. In lact, we conkT never get', it into our bead that members who voted these appropriations made good legislators, The San Francisco Alta says: Vice President- Hendricks, is coming to California, may depend upon receiving a royal We dont often catch either a President or a Vice President on this side of the continent, but when we do wo insist that he shall have good time, as California understands that term. A Democratic Vice President, however, has never jet crossed the, Rocky Mountains, and that is another rcasun why the uproar pver Mr. Hendricks will be made shows bis good senso in abandoning his first intention to go to Europe, where he might catch jtlm cholera, and in poming to California, where there are so many who wish to sec him.

It is charged that Jndge Foraker has so far forgotten bis religion as to swear fearfully at the Prohibitionists-Four years, ago Charlie Foster "damned the Dutch, but then lie in very sinful man, Forakerj ought to keep his temper. The Prohibitionists are doing now what they have done lor years, except that they are voting their own instead of the Republican ticket. Dayton Democrat.

Then why did Gen efal Grant mass the army around Washington to forcibly- inaugurate Hayes? The list Democratic Legislature rfide debts due for labor preferred claims over all others. This is more legislation in favor of the laboring classes than they ever got from the Republican iiai ty during its twenty-five years existence. Under (lie new law the Cutsingcr bridge, if it was to be built now instead of last yeaf, would have to be paid for by Bine Rivet township, and would Lave to be. voted for by sixty per cent' of the voters of that township. If the feeling over thb country is any index of the future, the Presidential nomination will be tendered Mr.

Hendricks in 1888, as unanimously, and with the same joyful emotion, as was bis nomination for the Vice Presidency in 1884. Pinkertons band of Chicago de tectives have been employed in both Ohio and Michigan to shoot down 'dissatisfied laboring men. It is a disgrace to American civilization. Nothing can be more dangerous to populaOlberty than the existence of an armed band of hirelings. We called on Vice President Hen I drieks a few' days g0 and found liim putting up his fences.

All mugwump is, good for In Ildiana; is to make trouble among Democrats. In all of the counties i-the Stale there were not three lb tin. dredof them- at the last eleation.

Francis, editor of the Michigan City Dispatch, in bi address on tbe political duties of editor, before -the editorial association last week, voiced sound ideas, as follows: Some mav say that it is the duty of a political writer to do whatever his party may see fit to dictate to lake the meal as it may be prepared by the party leaders, as it were, and swallow fl ns au entirely, witlr eyes closed, and still cry for more, or to subvert all honcat opinions and feel iiiga of conscience lo enjj that the party may he auccessful, or, la other words, to allow the bosses to select the programme io suit themselves, and then compel the pour political editor lo furnish the music for the entertainment, without consults- lion orcousidvraiion. Such are the ideas that many people hold as the field to bo occupied by a political editor, and such, it Is needless for me to say, are entirely fallacious. To my niiml thu political editor, if he be au editor in fnct, occupies a position far above tbe men has so largely contributed to make. Ilis position, if honestly used, is that! of a dictator, a molderof healthy political opinion, au open warrior upon all demogogiiery, an enemy of the trimmer end time-server, the defender or.houest 'Utterances boncst party. declarations.

iSnch to my. mind, is the ideal political If he be honest, brave, fearless and po iitically pure, he is to the 'profession and rf treasure to his patty, and is truly editor. Bill II he be simply a talking or. writing' machine, to be used at the convenience of tin i rupnlous end ambitious politicans who Anger the keys, then it twere better that ho never, were boru. Further on he esys; i i Ido not lielieve that tire exigencies of the party can ever; arise when a political editor will be justified hr defending an unworthy candidate-! If he is unworthy bo should never have been nominated, and deserves lo be It is not the Iduty of a 'political ctlkor to dofend him, but to defeat him.

Hie election would result in no good to the party, consequently -a fearless political editor would simply be ftlfllling hia duty as an editor in contributing bis share- to his defeat. v.TUere is no excuse for committing a wrong; to elect unworthy men to office is wrong, and those who tnbw jt arid nasiat in thpv election of such mien are doing; a1 wrong which cannot be eatUfadtory explained 'And lo'uao an old bet bomei phrase, Vlt sometimes' becomes necessary td kill the pups. to preserve the breed.

FRANKLIN, INDIANA. Paid up Capital, $250,0001 i- V- jS WV Officers: Can Bicycles Beat Horses "I' see -great' possibilities in the bicycle, say's L. V. Moses, the well-knuwnorse fancier at Indianapolis. "The machine is not perfect yet, but is already a wonder.

Its reputation as a long distance traveler, is established. There is now no horse that, hitebed to an. ordinary vehicle, can go iith them twenty miles, and it will not be long before the bicycle wiU beat everything in, the way of horse flesh at ten miles. I believe that on a specially-prepared track within a very short time, hey will beat eyenJLba best time. of oyf horse to liarnfrsV Willi regard to very long, distances.

there are no thiee-h6rses'tbt Io relays; can go as for in twenty four hqurs as one man can on-a bycicle. Two hundred and fifty-two or 253 miles have been discovered by a bicycler In twenty-four hours, and he tode 22D milss of that distance without dlsmounlirfg. There has been 100 miles done in ten hours or a little less than by a horse, jrat no horse could begin t. cover 250 miles. -r Over the exposition track at tbe resent bicycle tournamen end the road was not well prepared, a bicycle rider made ten I miles In jhlrty-two miuuteeaiid a few- seconds.

Now, thereVpot a horse In this city tbst could draw a man that distance lu thirty-two minutes.
