No mistakes Are made at the great drug Emporium of Browning a Sloan apothecaries Hall 7 and 9 East Washington Street. The most careful pharmaceutic a in the West Are found behind their counters. All week the trial of the Baker s dozen indicted and arrested democrats of Jackson Brown Bartholomew and Jennings counties has absorbed the attention of the u. S. District court and throngs of interested spectators. Judge Gresham on the Bench looks Placid and Serene. He has a deep judicial voice and seems to Vertre to be amp in and impartial things most confound edly hard to be under such trying circumstances for the Jain features of the Case re As partizan As politics them selves. Yet As no political principles Are at take and Only methods or alleged methods of Campaign work Are involved Why judge attorneys and jury could not afford to sink the political wranglers smother partizan prejudice and rising above these narrow feeling demand that Justice be done though the heavens Mil and that Law Breakers be Piini shed though parties be disgraced and crushed forever is not complimentary to our character As a people. The rulings of judge Gresham Are mainly fair and unbiased but they Are so delusive and so versatile from the standpoint respectively of the leading counsel for the government and the defense from the views of Gen. Harrison and gov. Hendricks that they Are amusing to the disinterested Spectator. In fact the rulings appear to be the result of an honest Effort of the Bench to decide Quot turn about Quot with each contestant and As Quot turn about s fair play Quot in the philosophy of the old adage it is presumable that Gresham finds that the Only method of doing about the Square thing in so puzzling a situation. Gen. Harrison leads the prosecution for the government. He is special Council aiding col. Trusler and major Charley Holstein. Just now the Dapper Little big brained general is a melancholy victim of Ivy Poison his eyes and face resembling a fellow who has graduated with eminent Success from the prize ring. This intolerable Poison nuisance has an evident tendency to make him a Little irascible and petulant and it is no wonder. The wonder is that he can maintain any composure at All under a such a physical perplexity. Notwithstanding this trouble he manages to squeeze out of each witness about All there is vitally valuable to the Case. As these old and Young Moss Hack democrats too honest to perjure themselves and too Good Andy Jackson democrats to believe in the modern methods of bulldozing fraudulent voting expound fact after fact of this Damnable conspiracy to import voters into Jennings county to carry the democratic ticket there the spectators can perceive the facial Muscles of the accused elongate and the outward indications of the Workings of an inward consciousness of guilt. Gov. Hendricks leads in the attorney work for the defense. In this Peculiar Case he is doing himself personally no credit nor giving to his political prospects any strength. It is questionable whether a discreet policy would have permitted i presidential candidate on the eve of the National convention to become the defender of a gang of unscrupulous men charged with conspiring to commit that crime which is More heinous than treason raping the ballot Box. Every honest Patriot not insensible to the Dierst Dan ger menacing the Republic and Liberty should As vigilantly guard the purity of the ballot Box As he would the Honor of his wife or Mother. There is no surer indication of paralysed patriotism than a decay of this Universal demand for pure and honest elections. To accuse gov. Hendricks of defending importing bribery intimidation or any other corruption of the ballot Box would insult him to the Core yet he stands Here in the attitude of defender of these conspirators. The proof is already indisputable. The Case against the accused is already made out by democratic witnesses alone. The evidence discloses a deplorable depravity in political methods and gov. Hendricks and judge Turpie should be loudly condemning it. Or. Turpie does not keep As Cool As his colleague Hendricks. Jason Brown of Seymour is also one of the counsel but he does not take an Active part. One of the parties interested in the proceedings is or. A. G. Smith perhaps As a defendant. Or. Smith is Gental intelligent humorous member of the great Smith family and edits a paper at Vernon or Columbus. The Jur it is a Quot distinguished Quot body containing some extraordinary faces one of them being the Webster Ian header Uncle Sammy Beck. Or. Bowen of the Book House is also there and others Well known to Indianapolis. The tout ensemble is a picture worthy of an artist. Politically divided the jury is said to be Alf and Alf. Where the Liberal the National the Confederate brigadier the conservative the Independent and the Granite parties come in for a reasonable share of representation on that jury is not made apparent. If Gresham intends to Quot drink fair Betsy Quot in this business he should have Given All parties a show. notes. East and North end a Tes. Clint Mason still remains in the City. Doc Many is acknowledged As being one of the Best of Deputy assessors. Since last sunday night Ben Brown is continually singing Quot we Are a Happy Way does a certain East end clerk carry Cotton in his pockets is it to make him look fat who Are the Young couple that Quot hold tip Quot the Bridge Over Pogue s Bun on East Market Street every night till quite a late hour. Chas. Worland will be the next Park policeman of University Park. Who was the Young Man that showed Quot Jack snipe Quot a couple of horse pistols and at the same time told him Good Nat redly not to put his name in print that serenading Narty headed by Charlie Railsback met with rather a warm reception on North Illinois Street on last monday night. All the Loose furniture and crockery Ware up stairs came flying promiscuously out the window. Charles became As wet is a d owned rat although the weather was As Clear As Crystal. Won t the new Council perform an act that will do them great credit by placing a policeman or something that looks like oae in the neighbourhood of Roberts Park Church on sunday nights. This religious Sanctum is disturbed every sunday evening by crowds of boys and even Young men who frequent it to Quot Mash Quot but to Nain on the outside and raise Harry Parker was fined 810 for fast driving on last sunday evening. This was done on complaint of the owner of the horse who will find it rather difficult to hire to our City Quot bloods Quot in future. Who were the six Young Quot bums Quot who attended the met on last monday night and left totally disgusted with the drama Henry James and Billy Anderson and George Langham fished at hog Island on wednesday with Good Luck. Quot Reddy Quot the East end cop and Jack Sloan experienced rather an unpleasant time in arresting a Drunken Man on Street on last sunday afternoon. The Day Benig very warm Jack sweat like the Devil. Jack snipe. With snacks on the journal the other local editors will have to Hump themselves. Charles h. Pulham for Many years City editor of the new York times died on last tuesday afternoon. Gen. Reub Williams of Warsaw the Lone Fisherman of Kosciusko county and Well known editor of the Northern Indian Ian was in the City on last wednesday. The editor of that truly wicked paper the Seymour times which his name is or. J. R. Monroe was in the City at the Occidental on last monday and the City has not so domed nor the Occidental Gomo Rahed Jap Turpin formerly the Tipton Slasher and the Only Man who Ever edited a democratic in Kokomo has sold out the Herald at Hutchinson Kansas and has gone to new to Bune. The journal copyrights Riley s tales. What s the use if they Are really meritorious the journal should be delighted to have them republished with proper credit if of no account other papers will hardly waste space in their republication. Mrs. James , wife of the general agent of the new York associated press died in new York on monday evening at the family residence on Twenty fourth Street. She had just returned with her husband from an extended trip to the Pacific coast. The National police Gazette has an illustration of Harding s attempt to shoot Light in his office. Light is sitting at his desk with scissors in hand while Harding is represented As shooting at him with his pistol in his left hand. There is no likeness in either of the figures. The shears and the waste Basket Are the Best features in the illustration. We reckon it must be infectious John m. Higgs of the Connersville examiner the other Day knocked Down and thrashed Al James of the Connersville times. The affray took Plack in a clothing store. Higgs said he could t stand it and went for James in a Way the latter must have despised. It is said that this is not James first and Only experience. Or. Perry Tuttle a we known newspaper correspondent of Terre haute is in the City discharging the duties of Foreman of the grand july in the United states court. Though his hair and moustache Are of a snowy whiteness his genial disposition and rather plump figure would indicate that Perry had hardly attained his majority. For a brain inv orator he prefers Corn beef and potatoes though a dish of Fried potatoes has been known to put him in an ecstacy of Delight. We did not know that will Nicholas of the journal had any intention of leaving that paper or the City until we read in one of our exchanges that he had gone West to grow up with the country. Will is a great Deal More ready Svith his pen than he is with his Tongue and was really a very efficient local editor and we cannot for the life of us divine Why like the Arab he should All of a sudden hive folded up his journalistic tent and quietly stolen away. Success to him in the future. Col. Maynard goes for Henri Watterson of the Louisville courier journal after the following vigorous fashion he is the ringer pop journalist of the West a shooting Cracker in politics and a fire Fly in literature. Tilden seems to have trained him As Hunters do Point Al s and setters to run around and push out nose or Paw in the direction of game for others to shoot at. Henry May have instincts but he has neither judgment nor reason. He has the erudition of a Parrot without the profundity of a in owl. He chatters like a Jaybird and soars like a Bat. He fertilizes himself by absorption and then vomits like a Leech in warm water. ,. There is an old saying Quot you cannot teach Char Branch of the dramatic profession.
