Editor and proprietor pm. Office no. 23 n. Meridian Street Sun Corner of Circle. Indiana Polis ind., August 2. 1879. The weak Side of the Sentinel. There is much in the conduct and management of the Sentinel to commend. An Independent paper like the people not blinded by partizan Bias and party Hotia can perceive the Merit in a contemporary. But the same spin it of Independence and liberality enables the people to detect weakness As Well As strength in the Sentinel. The chief weakness consists of too serious sundness in its partisanship. In its Issue of july 28th an article headed Quot Chastine Cox As a Radical Quot from the Petersburg a Index is copied without comment. Usually the copying of an argumentative political article by a strictly party Organ without comment is considered tantamount to an endorsement of its sentiment and position. Does the Sentinel endorse this Balderdash and pretend to set Forth the ridiculous absurdities of this Petersburg emanation As a truthful arraignment of the Northern people and give countenance and currency to this blackguard Batch of silly falsehoods for example read from the Sentinel selection in fact although we had just been arraign ing the Radical party of new York for making an organized Effort to protect Cox from punishment because he was a negro and h s victim a White woman we had no serious thought that the depravity of his sympathizers would proceed to such audacious lengths. But the sequel has shown that we underrated the mawkish and morbid disposition of Radical fanaticism to everything in the negro s favor and that we allowed too Little for once to the usurping tendency of the corrupt and partisan United states courts. The most idiotic partizan to urbanized Booby knows if he knows anything that the Radical that is the Republican party is making no organized or any other Effort in the negro Cox s favor. The Confederate Virginia sex slave driving ass who adds that the Republican party is organizing in this grand Cox Boom because Cox s victim is Quot a White woman Quot exhibits a Power of brainless gibberish eminently suggestive of the prevailing editorial Flap Doodle grown in the South. Of course there Are no White women in the Republican party of the North and these fiendish Quot radicals Quot have nothing but contempt and Abhorrence for White females. The Index idiot is nervously apprehensive lest these fanatical radicals assume everything in the negro s favor. Of course in his chivalric Section where his High Southern civilization buds and blooms nothing whatever would be assumed in the negro s favor but simply because god created him a negro this Petersburg editor and our neighbor who endorses him would pronounce Cox guilty and condemn him to death proof or no proof. Do not the Index and Sentinel know the simplest Rudiment of Law which assumes everything for the person charged with crime under the Rule in civilization As old As the Hills of old Virginia is not the accused entitled to every presumption of innocence execution of his sentence All a Lement Sof new Ywit radicalism have rallied to the Comfort and Protection of this most Hearse so and vulgar Assassin. Does anybody ask the reason Why there Boid have of ii such an outpouring of feeling the answer a Fotima in the fact that Cox is Black. A contrast of the course pursued by the Northern people in the cases of homicide usually with that pursued by the souths is example in the cases of Cox in new York and Curry who Ungro jokingly and fiendishly shot to death the actor Barrymore. In Texas and tried to murder actor Porter. There never was a Moi a Wanton or cruel murder than that. It May be Cox feared discovery in his thieving raid and thought to smother mrs. Hull in silence. He committed no bloody brutal violence on her like cutting her Throat or stabbing her to death would have been. But Curry a Type of a Large element of Southern chivalry first insulted most grossly a Northern lady then when her gentleman protector resented the outrage by reprimanding the texan he Drew his bloody weapon and proceeded to slay. Will he Ever be tried convicted and punished never if the usual custom of the South in Quot assuming everything Quot in the Southern White Man s Yovor is adopted. So far in the Curry Case the Law s delay Quot is working admirably. Has the Sentinel copied anything showing the Texas plan of sym Patli zing with bloody murder editorial etchings. The Bryce family to say the least most be a thriving one. We mean of course our City father from the i7th Ward. He has got a Mammoth bakery the Brush factory with the efficient and Good looking John Stewart As Foreman a turning factory under the management of or. Arthur Robinson a former attache of the people and has the lease of the Large building on the Corner of Meridian and South streets with All of its Power Etc. Now comes the juvenile Bryce s and not to be Idle starts a lemonade stand under the Steps of the Brush factory under the superintendency of Robinsons where they sell two glasses for five cents and a lottery ticket thrown in for which a Quot picture or a chronic can be drawn. It is said by some envious democrats that City father Bryce is already getting ready for the Campaign next year and with these proceeds will go heavily into politics. Some say that the stand is started in opposition to the saloons in that neighbourhood so that the boys can be induced to get a Temperance drink instead of the foaming lager Etc. But for All of this we wish this enterprising Bryce family Success. The experts claim that up to Date the new two million Dollar court House has Cost but one million four Hundred and Twenty two thousand three Hundred and seventy one dollars and seventy nine cents. We Are afraid the experts have let some of the items get away. They find that architect Hodgson has received g36,261 30�?$2,000 More than he is charged with receiving on Oriff Nal contracts some one has doubtless blundered. Of where Tell us where has the Brand new Coal Road gone Camp meeting at Acton will begin on next wednesday. Sunday trains As usual. The ministers talk was All wind. The Hon. Mayor Caven is still a sufferer but Hopes to be Able to resume his duties shortly. He has had quite a serious time of it and has been sadly missed. From the miserable punning in monday s mail one would suppose that Frank Scott was editing it. The boys should Quot Reform it altogether Quot and shoot the editor or reporter guilty of a Pun. The High joints have thought better of it and reconsidered their action in reference to inviting president Hayes to visit the City during state fair week. We thought they had mistaken their hand. We acknowledge a very pleasant hour with j members of the municipal legislature should fir to Reform themselves before they attempt to Reform their officials. If a City officer is removed for getting drunk a City father should be twice removed were it pos sible for the same offence. And we have understood that one or two of the fathers were quite drunk recently. Remove the beam before endeavouring to remove the Mote gentlemen. What does the City attorney intend to do with the Case of Alderman Coburn accused of Selling lumber to the City contrary to charter is it not about time for Hirn to make his report Alderman Coburn should t rest under a Cloud unnecessarily he either committed an offence against the Law or he is innocent. The experts were unable to find a single error in the accounts of or. Hamilton auditor of Marion comity for four years this Speaks Well for or. Hamilton. Such men deserve to be retained in office. Congressman de la mater whom the journal Lias been so Wor Ritin Over has re turned House and threatens a speech in the Circle on monday night it will be a Green Back Boom. J. W.

They keep it supplied with valued info Maxion from All Wrt ions of tie City. Quot Duke Quot it it of you suit us. Grading and contemptuous charge Quot corrupt and partisan Quot do the Index and Sentinel suppose that their candidate for president governor Hendricks who is an Able lawyer and acknowledged statesman would endorse this description of to e Hig Liest tribunals of our government neither Hen Dricks nor Bayard nor Tilden nor Thurmar would be capable of entertaining such a Hothouse opinion of the general government courts. The Index idiot descends to personality. Judge Noah Davis on the u. S. Bench in new York who is not Only a Quot malignant Radical Quot but Quot personally one of the most unworthy men Quot has granted a writ of error in Cox s Case. Both the Index and its endorser the Sentinel May be utterly ignorant i of judge Davis and in thus classing him May be Only guilty of a species of unworthy blackguard ism. Judge Davis served along time in Congress leaving that service with a spotless reputation to take judicial service. He has always been known As a conservative not even a Radical. Republican but the terrible crime this terrible Quot Radical Quot has committed is in according to the accused and convicted Cox the same Benefit of a writ of error that every criminal or alleged criminal however inhuman the crime committed or horrifying and diabolical the circumstances j is entitled to under the Law. It is of course to any other thana base and prejudiced mind full of rancor utterly preposterous that judge Day a would Bare his judicial act to censure by granting a writ of error in Cox s i Case not warranted by sound Law. But the i loveliness of the pabulum upon which the Sentinel feeds its readers must be seen in full to be heartily appreciated obviously the motive that operated with or. Davis was exclusively political and fanatical. He is satisfied a a to know that Cox is a negro and a Radical. Davis is Quot ave a rest on this also a Radical fanatic and he takes it for granted that Cox can live done no wrong. His conduct is in keep Drivers were required to endure so much unnecessary fatigue and suffering. To commit adultery in Marion county and get caught at it costs 25 cents each and imprisonment in the body of the jail twelve hours. At least this was the decision of the jury in the criminal court in the Case of John Gasper and Alice Knox t to cheap by one Hall. Why did t mayor Caven give Ridenour president of the Board of aldermen a Chance to play judge in Case of the death of his Honor which heaven forfend a tue president of the Aldermani Board becomes acting mayor and acting judge of the City court. John Henry the City attorney has a cow John Henry s cow runs at Large. How can John Henry City prosecutor consistently prosecute other people for allow their cows to run at Large when John Henry s own cow has the Freedom of the City this is a conundrum. It is a damned shame that Geise Dorrs dam has not been lowered before this. That it is a disease breeder any one can see with half an Eye. There is no water running Over this dam which has been so often damned and a Green scum rests on the top of the stagnant drink. Lower the damned dam the great Irvington cases or the Irvington great cases in which a school a am accused a couple of directors with forcibly ejecting her from the school room is not yet satisfy in Toily settled. The jury could t agree when it finally agreed to disagree being 11 for a f quintal and one for conviction. Can t we Rev. A. N. Bali and or. A. B.

Just How it can be made Clear that it would be a logical process in just a Davis mind spontaneous from his political and fanatical feelings against negro or any other form of human slavery to Quot take for granted that Cox can have done so wrong Quot is submitted As a problem in argument to the Index and the Sentinel endorser. Were he upon the Earth the late sole Of the journal frets his soul and rends his most intimate Linen concerning the running at Large of cows. He thinks it a terrible thing that the cows of poor people Are allowed to run the streets because some Rich Man s Gate might be left open and injury done to his palatial grounds. Better keep the Rich Man s Gate closed than county ky., died the Day previous to the demise of the judge. Corbin the jew hater turns out to be a brother in Law to Grant. The sex president should have taught brother in Law Corbin better manners. But then if we remember rightly Grant set the example by proscribing jews during the War. He expelled them from the department of the Tennessee Fred Malc Iio who murdered two persons near Vandalia 111., last fall and escaped from jail about two months ago voluntarily returned to his Home on last monday night. The news of his return spread through the neighbourhood and a posse of neigh banded together for the purpose of Lynching him but Malcho seeing them coniing deliberately shot and killed himself. Preside i Havko has threatened to desert the City during the month of september on count of the Tot he a us lbs to any iinds less developed and her a sible one my make a Fortune in gambling for thai capital. Quot Quot Quot now you see if tie High joints had consented to invite the president to visit us during the fair week in All probability he would have accepted the invitation and we should have had a bigger crowd in our midst than on the late occasion of the rifles picnic. Here was a president waiting for an invite. Tion to come West and the High joints refused to extend it to him. Carrying of All the mails in the United states he has displayed a greater executive ability than any Man who has Ever filled the of Leo and while the service has been constantly increasing he reduced the Cost of the whole nearly 31,000,000 under that of the last years of his predecessor. The transportation of All the malls of the United states belongs to his department a from the Ocean steamers and great postal trains on the railroads Down to the lonely postal rider on the Frontier Are All under control and he knows just what they Are doing and when they fair in the per Fona auce of their duty. His popular it qualities Are manifold. He never forgets or neglects a Friend and never pursues an enemy. He is a first class organizer and always gives his whole attention to the subject in hand. Being one of the people having been reared on a farm he knows the poo pc the masses. Any Man can see him he is always accessible. At Washington no janitor guards is door for fear some honest tax payer might venture into his presence unannounced. His door stands wide open and the Plain people who Don t a ire about Cooling their heels in the Ante room of some incompetent snob while a Lackey carries in a card always drop in to see Quot Tom As a Soldier his record is first class which Means that he stood High with his comrades. All in All he is the strongest Man the republicans can nominate. And yet i am of the opinion that he has never even thought of such a nomination certainly has never spoken of it. It is Seldom that any business or commercial Enterprise so completely fulfils the expectations of its pro Jector s As have the Belt Railroad and Stock Yards of this City. When that Enterprise was first put on foot Many shrewd business men were incredulous As to the merits of the scheme and did not believe that either Branch of it or both together could be made to Jay. The result has proven the sagacity of the pro sectors of the Enterprise and the error of those who reused to put Faith in it. Both branches of it the Belt Road and Stock Yards now do a business far in excess of the expectations of their projectors and Are yielding Large dividends on the investment. The Belt Road has proven of the greatest advantage to the City in every Way and it is now Plain that the increased freight business of the roads passing through the City could scarcely be handled without it. The wonder is How the roads Ever got along without it As Long As they did. The business of the Stock Yards already very Large is steadily increasing and beyond any doubt is destined to become one of the largest inter Essof the City. Though still in its infancy it has developed sufficiently to demonstrate that it has a great future before it and cannot fail to contribute very largely to the business Prosi Jority of the . And the journal was one of those who had no Faith in the Enterprise. The projectors could not get a favourable mention in its columns unless they paid for it. The journal has changed its tune with a witness. It was hardly As Rabid in its opposition to the Belt Road and Stock Yards As the news but gave them the cold shoulder upon every convenient occasion. In speaking of probable democratic candidates for governor the Cincinnati enquirer pays the Privette poor Man and his family of a deserved compliment to an estimable fellow and too it is an entirely novel explanation their milk and butter.

Old times. Lafayette ind., july 28,1879. Editor people a i told you some time since that i contemplated a travel through the Northern portion of the state to try and find a people who could appreciate my labors in saving the Early history of the Central part of the state and the peculiarities of the pioneers from oblivion. As i told you i had Given my labor and my Means for this purpose and those most interested had refused to some extent to respond. I had to seek Sale for my work among strangers. In this i feel proud to say i have been successful and have demonstrated the Bible adage that Quot a Prophet is honoured save in his own people who never saw Indianapolis buy my Book As a source of instruction to their children of what the county was in primitive times and the peculiarities of the pioneers. Lafayette is called the Quot Star it is truly a meteor of no mean pretensions in a business Point of View. I contrast its present appearance with what i saw it in september 1828. It was then a Cluster of log. Cabins with Otie store kept by a Man named Hollo Way who was a son in Law of Samuel Mcgeorge one of the Early citizens of Indianapolis. Or. Mcgeorge came to this county about the year 1824, and settled on wild cat Prairie seven Miles from this City. He soon ingratiate himself into the Good graces of the indians and through the influence of Longley and other prominent men of the Pottawatomie tribe was granted six sections of land on wild cat Prairie he subsequently through the influence of general John Tipton received a Patent for the land which has been subdivided and now forms one of the finest portions of this productive county. The Quot Star City Quot Lam told is the wealthiest Ity of the state. I am sure its appearance indicates it. While Indianapolis perhaps outnumbers it in Fine buildings and population we must remember that the Grain grown and cattle raised upon the Prairies of this Beautiful country has built up Lafayette and its property is owned at Home. While our own City has to too great an extent been built by Eastern Quot shylock i Quot who Are watch no their Opportunity to foreclose and reap the labors of our citizens Alvo built up the capital City. I am Sony to say we have those among us who Are the agents of these Eastern capitalists who will stoop to any mean and Low Rasca Lity to further the object of the sharper for the Sake of tie commission they receive for this purpose. As our courts May Revea 1 some of these nefarious transactions and the villains engaged in them i will wait for an Opportunity to give names. In travelling i always look to the Comfort of my laborious companion Frank my horse and see that lie is Well provided for. I therefore avoid what is called first class hotels and livery Stabler and seek the Plain a pretending hotel where Quot horse feed is furnished for Man and without a great display of table furniture which cannot be eaten but plenty of tie Best the Market affords prepared in the Best style which might be considered a Dainty dish to set before a King. In this Point 1 have been eminently successful Here As i have stopped with mine Host or. Rudolf be Rena proprietor of the Farmers Home where i found everything that necessity or luxury would require. I must not neglect to say that of Lafayette is not without its people or Herald. There is a paper Here called the sunday times conducted upon the same Independent plan of the late times of our own City giving facts and news with out fear or favor. What i have read in the times i have come to the conclusion that it strikes at monopolies and corruption of i it sequences to itself. The people Are always wit a ugh papers and they Are bound to succeed. I Hope Success May attend the it shall have my , which is what the Church gives to the poor. A. H. B. N.
