PRESIDENT HARBISON AS AN 0BAT0RThere are but few things in the life of a public man that President. Harrison has not mastered. Noticeable among these is his power of extemporaneous speech—his command of language mosl suitable for the occasion. At all times and with all elassee of people he has shown his command over the English language by having upon his tongue's end the very words for the occasion. In this respect the gifted Ingersoll has never surpassed him and very few have shown themselves to be his equal. Now that the courage and bravery of Richard Neff, the Lake Erie trainnmn in the Peru wreck is fresh upon the public mind how vividly does his act of bravery call to mind the eloquent wordo of Pres ident Harrison delivered to the railroad men of Indiana. He said: 'The necessities and responsibilities of the business of transportation have demanded a body of picked, faithful and courageous, sober and educated men—and the call has been answered as your presence here tonight demonstrates. Heroism ha6 been found at the throttle and the brake as well as on the battle field, and as well worth of song and marble. The trainman crushed between the platforms, who used his last breath, not for prayei or message of love, but to say to the panic striken who gathered around him, 'Put out the red light for the other train', inscribed his name very high upon the shaft where the names of the faithful and brave are written." ...

THE Catholic Cuion, an influential journal of the Roman Catholic church, had this significant and patriotic utterance the other day: "People coming to the United States to better their condition and with a view of making this land their home owe il to the country, to themselves and to their children at once to shake off tne stacklesof foreign nationalties and to become American in everything that con stitutes that term in its highest signification. This need not prevent then from laving the olden land from which they came and always rejoicing in her weal. But America is their country now. To it they owe supreme temporal allegiance, and the man or clique that would seek to prevent this Americanization should be regarded as an enemy to this country UB well as to immigrant progress and prosperity."'

THE electric railroad between Chicago and St. Louis will be built. The road is now being constructed and it is be lieved will be completed before the com ing summer is over. Several power houses will be built between the two cities. A mile a minute for express press trains is confidently counted on bv its projectors. Electric experts do not hesitate to predict that within a decade electric power will supersede steam power on all the important lines in the United States. What electricity has in store for us it is idle to predict. It will not only furnish light but it will give us heat for warming our houses and cook ing our food beside power for our railroads. Electricity is not only light but it is life.

SR.NATOII SELLER yesterday introduced a bill in the Senate providing for a Board of Pcrdonp, to be compog- o( the Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Attorney-general. It provides that th.Board shall meet four times a year that prisoner may be returned if he violates the terms of his parole and that no prisoner may be paroled who is charged with treason or murder until he has served ten years. The Governor's clerk is made the clerk of tho Board at a Biliary of $'2,000 a year. This is certainly a good bill and ought to beeotr.e a law.

A bill has passed the Senate making it obligatory on County Commissioners in towns of 5,000 inhabitants to establish work-houses. It authorizes the Commissioners to purchase property, erect buildings and pay for the same. This is a most commendable measure and should receive the sanction of the House by a unanimous vote. The fellows that are sent to jail at the public expense should be compelled to earn the board and lodging.

"THE growth of many of the textile industries during the year just closed was most remarkable," says the free trade Philadelphia Times, in noting that 202 new mills, employing 31,000 hands, were established in 1892. And this growing industry, it might be added, is among those marked for slaughter by a free trade Congress.

CONGRESS bos been in session over six weeke now, and with a Democratic ma jority of 140 in the House only three of the annual appropriation bills hare been passed. The session is more than half over now, and yet the House has been at work about 100 hours altogether and shows no disposition to average more than an hour a day.

THE anti-prize fight bill has been killed in the Senate. it was a drastic

mensnre aa provided that, principals should be Sued 85,000 and sentenced to imprisonment for ten years seconds and bucket men, $100 spectators, S"0, and owners of newspapers who publish advance notices of prize lights, $3,000. The average legislator's ambition is to regulate the newspapers, notwithstanding the tact that he owes his position largely to the newspaper of his o. untv. The newspnper that made Magenity .n exclaim with King Le :r, "llow sharper th:i" «•. nerncnt's tooth tt is

To huvo ti thuiiKk'ss child." But seriously, the death of the bill is to be regretted because just so long as such publications arc tolerated by law all newspapers, no matter how moral their management, will be forced to give the disgusting details of brute struggles, in order to satisfy the depraved appetite of a large und active patronage. The passage of Magenity'e bill would have been a defense to the respectable newspapers.

THE Senate LLIS passed Senator McHugh's bill which extends, after the the next election, the terms of Mayor, Clerk, Treasurer and other city oflicers from two years to four years. The city council is so classed thut one half'go out every two years instead of every year as now. Wo see no reason why it is not a good bill as it is in line with the policy of making State and couuty officers four years instead of two. If this bill becomes a law the city officers of Crawfordsville will be extended two years, except the Couricilmen whose terms expire next May. The Councilmen then elected will hold for four years.
