Growing In Popularity.

Ft. Wayne Press: One of the most notable books of the past decade was written by a resident of Indiana. It is tho historical novel of Ben Hur, by Geuerul Lew Wallace.

Its publishers now say that that the remarkable popularity of Ben Hur iB still keeping their presses running, and that there have been a greater number of copies sold in the past six months than at any time since its publication.

Instructions to Enumerators. There seems to be some misunderstanding among the census enumerators as to tho meaning of Schedule No. 2. To ascertain the exact meaning of it, W. H. Mount, one of the enumerators of Franklin township, wrote tht Supervisor and received the following reply:

TEKKE HAUTE, June 5, 1890—W. H. Mount, Census Enumerator,—Dear Sir.—Schedule No. 2 is made for the purpose of containing ten farms. You will see by the instructions that "X" is adopted for use whore the answer is not applicable. I wish you would invite the attention of such enumerators within your reach to tho fact that Schedule No. 2 must be used in enumerating ten farm. Very Respectfully,

Garrett Goes Up.

This morning Johusou Garrett, tho man who assisted in burglarizing R, O. Walkup's residence last month, was brought into court and through his attorney Judge Davidson, returned his plea of guilty. Judge Snyder stated that communication with the police at Muncie and Garrett's old employer had proved that his character there had been that of a harmless, good natured, industrious sort of a fellow,whose only fault was intemporanoe. In oonsideraof these facts he was given the minimum sentence, two years in the State prison with disfianchisement for that period. Judge Snyder said he was glad he had taken the case under advisement, as without a knowledge of Garrett's previous good character lie would have given him at least six years. Garrett still sticks to lus second story,and maintains that he was the mere tool iu the wands of Hudson, who it will be remembered was released on Garrett's first confession. He says Hudson gave him $28 to take the blame upon himself, and promised to defend him if oaught. If Hudson is taken it will be very diflioult to convict liim on acoount of the conflicting confession?,

JUNE MAGAZINES,

The North American Review for June brings to a close the 150th volume of this ably-couduoted and indispensable periodical. It may be describod as an international number in more senses than one. Its most prominont "feature" is a symposium on the question "Do Americans Hate England?" One ell'ective answer to the question is furnished by the fact that no less than three of the contributors to the rich and varied feast which is set before the readers are Britons. Speaker Reed furnishes a striking paper on "The Federal Control of Elections he contends that this is necessary in order to secure fair elections in the South, and that negro domination in national affairs is wholly out of the question.

Scribner's Magazine for June is a Stanley number, containing the only article which he will contribute to any periodical, and the first authoritative word from him on many of the most important features of his great expedition for the relief of Emin Pasha. This article fills thirty-two pages of the issue, and is a most graphic and exciting narrative from first to last. It opens with a solemn acknowledgment of Stanley's btlief in God's help to him when he was helpless in the forest solitudes of Africa. "I feel utterly unable," he says, "to attribute our salvation to any other cause than to a gracious Providence, who for some purpose of His own, preserved us."

Senator Plumb went on to spoak of the silver bill in connection with the question of protection. The Senato had been appealed to by the Senator from Now York (lliscock) against tho bill in the sacred name of protection. Iio would not call it a fetich, although ho did not know what ho would call it befcro ho got through, but in its name the Senato was askedto keep silver dethroned. Silvor was an American product—a much larger product than many others which wero to be protected by duties of -J00 or 300 per cont. under the tariir bill. Ho would like to ask the Senator from New York, who was so anxious about foreign commerce, what ho intended to do with the tarilf bill, which would provent tho United States from having any foroign commerce, lie hoped that he might interpret tho Senator's remarks on that point as a hopeful augury of the action of that Senator in putting his knife into the bill now before the finance committee—a bill which would raise tlio prices of nearly every thing usod by the masses of the people.

The silver bill was then laid aside, and after an executive session tho Sonate adjourned. liot'src.

WASHINGTON, Juno 7.—Tho House met yesterday morning, and debate began at once on the silver bill. Mr. Lind (Minn.) said he represented an agricultural district, the farmers of which woro poor, but not wholly prosporous. The depressed condition was duo to the low prices of agricultural products, which ho bolleved were affected by tho amount of monoy in circulation. Tho increase of circulation advanced prices, the shrinkage of circulation diminished thom. The groat mass of the people demanded thatsilver should be restored to its former position. Tho peoplo understood tho question and could think and reason as woll as members of Congress. He said tho treasury bill was the most objectionable, for under a friendly Socretary it might bo made useful in increasing tho volume of ouriency but under an unfriendly Secretary it might bo dangerous. The least objectionable proposition was tho Republican caucus bill.

Mr. Lacy (la.) said there was an absolute shortage of funds. Tho pending bill, whicli was practically a froo coin ago bill, proposed to increaso the circulation to offset tho contraction. It was a free coinage measure because it provided that when silver was at par tho nrints should bo open to free coinage. Tho country needed an expansion of tho currency in a safe way, which this bill provided.

Mr. Walker (Mass.) spoke against froo coinage. ilci assorted that tho demonetization of silvor was not tbo nause of a docroaso of prices. Pricos

WASHINGTON, Juno 7.—'Die Senato yesterday ordered a now conference on tho dependent pension bill, and then took up tho silver bill. Senator l'lumb (Kan.) thought the chaiu-us for the passage of the bill at tho present session bad not improved by the performances of the last few woeks. lie asserted that the circulation to-day was 5240,000,0(10 less than the fratners of the financial legislation of 1875 anticipated, although tho commercial business of the country had doubled in that time. The pooplo demanded that a very cousidorablo increase in tho volume of currency was necessary. lie believed that the total amount of money which the people of the United States had for the transaction of their daily businoss was loss than ?"0i),00U,000, and upon that narrow foundation had boon built an enormous structure of credit, propped up hero and there by dovices of various kinds, which kept swelling and growing, whilo tho base On which it rested did not grow in proportion to tlio structure. Tho Senator ftom New York (lliscock) had described the great woalth nnd prosperity of tho country, but, if pictures woro true, why was it, Senator l'lumb asked, that that Senator and his cotmnittce, tho finance committee, wero "piling up protective duties?'' If there wero such financial health and soundness and prosperity, why not let the tariff alone and let tho financial system of the country alone? lie was willing to abandon his ideas in favor of tiat money and to widen the base of the credit structure by adding to it all tlio silver that the United States mints could turn out. According to the best data there was loss than 500,000,000 worth of silver mined evury year in tho United States. Of that some S!10,000,000 was coined, §8,000,000 used in tho arts and only $17,000,000 could be usod in free coinage. It was to bo remombored that tho National bank circulation waa being every day retired, the amount to bo retired this year being-S15,000,000. Wo shall therefore lose this year by tho withdrawal of National bank circulation about all that could be got by free coinage.

Mr. l!land (Mo.) inquired whether it .vas in order for him to offor an amendment Tho Speaker replied that it was not. Mr. Bland said that he could only protost against tbo denial of tho right of a member of tho minority to oifer an amondment. Ilo, as a mombor of tho committoo on coinage, weights and measures, had asked whether he would lie allowed to offer a froe coinage substituto. Tho chairman had replied that it would bo so arranged. Ho lid not want to charge any gentleman with acting in bad faith, but ho did shargo that thero had been a neglect in carrying out tho promises of ,tho lato committee.

Mr. Townsond (Col.) said that tho departure from tho bimetallic standard had been the cause of untold misery to the wago-workers and had benefited only those in tho enjoyment of fixed incomes payable in gold. Prosperity would not return and the downward course of prices would not bo arrested until silvor was returned to its proper place. Tho only complote and perfeot remedy was to reverse tho action of 1873 and go back to tho froo and unlimited coinage of silvor.

Mr. Horsey (Neb.) said that if Secretary Windom had purchased and coined the max'mum amount of silvor allowod under existing laws thoro would havo been no neod of this discussion and ho would havo strengthened tbo Administration of President Harrison. To that section of the substituto which provided for bullion redemption ho emphatically objected. That feature should be stricken out, and be appealed to his sido of the llouso to allow a voto on tiiat proposition.

Tho Houso hold an evening session for tho discussion of tho silvor bill. Short speeches woro made by Messrs. Barnos (Ga.), Parrott (Ind.), Ellis (Ky.), Lane (111.), Shively (Ind.), ilolman (Ind.), Wheeler (Ala.) and Heard (Mo.). At 11 o'clock tho House adjournod.

Mr. Perkins (Kan.)—We all love misery. Mr. Blount (Ga.) contended that silver demonetization had cast a blighting curse over overy body oxcopt tho capitalist. This curse was somowhat removed by the act of 1878 and the business of tho country began to grow moro prosporous. The present contraction of tho currency was due to tho demonetization act of 1S73. To incroaso the volume of circulation was tho only way to relievo not only tho agricultural interest, but evory othor interest in the country.
