IN 1869 the annual interest charged on the great war debt was $125,532,998.34. In 1S92 the interest charge was only $22,899,883.20. This great reduction is due to the tariff and financial polioy of the Republican party.

SOUTH GAKOAIKA, or rather the Governor of that State, has promulgated rules to govern the barrooms which will be established and opened under the new law. Each county will have one barroom, and the hours for business will be from 7 a. m. to 6. p. m. But one drink per day will be sold to each custjneer. Old topers will note that "one b.irroom in each county" and "but one ink per day."

IT is stated that Secretary Carlisle will request all the Collectors of Internal Revenue to resign during the coming week, their resignation to take effect June 30, the end of the fiscal year. That being the case the Collectorehip for this district will be disposed of within the next week or two. We shall soon 6ee whether after Senator Yoorhees' connection with the Terre Hante poatoffice scandalous affair he still retains aplace in the President's affections.

REV. THOMAS SHERMAN, son of "Old Tecumseh." is a Catholic priest.' In a lenture at Omaha last Thursday night on "True Americanism" he denied that the Roman church asked anything inconsistent with loyalty to this government from its adherents, and for himself he said: "The papal power is a spiritual power and not a political power. If the pope imagined that he had political power and called upon uie to renounce my allegiance as an American citizen to the President of the United States, the elected chief of the American nation, I would resist the pope. If President Clevelond called upon mo to renounce my spiritual allegiance to the pope as vicar of Christ and head of the church, I would reeeut such an interference." These are patriotic utterances, and Father Sherman recognizes the factjthat when the Roman Catholic church or any other church attempts to assume political power, that moment they begin to lose ground. The union of church and Btate in this country is an absolute impossibility.

IjtDiANAroLis ii not unlike smaller towns in many respects. No improvements of any kind can be proposed but .there are people who will object and protest. The city needs a better system of sewerage, but the following from io Ncwh would indicate that there pre citizens there who should move out to Clermont:

It is singular that there should be protests luminst sewers. Just as certainly as we live In a city we must have sewers. Farmers do nut. need them. Hut where mauy people are epuhcred witlitn a narrow area they need sewers us they need pavements to walk on and as a matter fact, they need sewers more than they ried pavements. Indianapolis Is almost without a sewer system. We have grown here to lie a city of 123,000 people and almost no sowers. It is an Inevitable as the suceession or day and night that the city must have a lli.trough sewer system. The utter folly that would protest utrain.St tills an 1 would rather run the risk ot being dceimated by disease is Its own comment. It certainly should not l»e allowed to prevail.

The necessity for sewers ssists in this city to as great an eitent as it exists in Indinnnpolis. The dangers which lurk in our villianous sysiem of "cesspools" are just as menacing to health as the slip shod system of sewerage at Indianupolis.

ALEXANDER RUSSELL WEBB, of Missouri, who was appointed by President Cleveland as Consel to Manilla, Spain, during his former administration, four years ago embraced the religion of Mohammed. He has now in New York and has established a newspaper, the Moslem World, which to be the organ of Mohammedanism in the United States. In an interview he states that a large number of Mohammedans are planning to emigrate from India to this country and that they will probably form colonies in several of the Southern States. "The idea of the wealthier and more prominent Mohammedans was," said by Mr. Webb, "to be to form in every town and city of the United States circles to study the Mohammedan religion. The primary purpose is not, however, to seek converts, but to soften the prejudices of Christians in America against the great religion ot India.

Already three of these circles have been established—two in New York and one in Woodbridge, N. J. Charters have been applied for by the secretaries, and it is believed that many more circles will shortly be in operation. Americans will not find the Mohammedans to be beggars or charity seekers, but on the contrary valuable workmen in many industries." In view of the fact that we are having so much trouble with the

Chinese it probably would be well that this move of Alexander Russell Webb should be nipped in the bud.

Borne Will Choose as Usual. The successor of the late Rev. Joseph Dwenger, Bishop of the Ft. Wayne Iioceee of the Catholic church may shortly be appointed. If not before the last of June, however, the appointment will be deferred until fall, the cardinals going into retirement for the summer about the first of July. At the meeting of the diocesan council in Ft. "Wayne in February the names of three clergymen were selected. Their names were sent to Cincinnati where action was taken upon the selection by the council consisting ot the Archbishop and the ten bishops of the province. This council has the right to reject any and all names submitted and to substitute new ones. Just what names were accepted or rejected may not be known to the laity. However, it is now known that the names sent to Kome, together with the recommendation of the council nro us follows:

Worthy—Very Rav. E. P. Walters, pastor of St. Mary's congregation, LaFayette, Ind.

More Worthy—Dr. J^hn Sohoonboeft D. D., pastor ot St. Lawrence congregation, Price Hill, suburb of Cincinnati.

Most Worthy—L)r. H-nrv Mo-ller, D. D., Chancellor of the dioceee of Cincinnati and secretary to Archbishop Elder, of Cincinnati.

The recommendation of "most worthy" falls to Rev. Moeller, and it is considered as not unlikely that the Vatican will indorse the recommendation by the ap. poiutment of Dr. Moeller.

ha\ to say of

DR. GEORGE B.

M'CLELLAN,

"DIAMOND DICK,"

After his stay of three months in

that city, whire the patronage given him was enormous.

A picturesque figure that has been several months in our midst, one afternoon appearing on horseback, again driving four-in-hand and then enjoying an afternoon stroll on foot, is to leave as on the last day of this month to go to the World's Fair city. We refer to Dr. Diamond Dick, tvho has made so many cures in onr midst, and who will leave many friends behind him, deservedly won by his bearing as a man and his skill as a physician. The Journal uuites with others in wishing Dr. Diamond Dick every success in life.—Morning Journal.

Dr. Geo. B. McClellau, "Diamond Dick," is now in the last days of his three months' visit in Lafayette, and will positively close his engagement May 31, going from here to Orawfords ville for a few days engagement and thence to Ohicago, where he has a suite of rooms and will remain until after the world's fair. Dr. McClellan's visit to this city has been a most phenomenal success, his rooms having been crowded from the first, and all who have come in contact with him have found him a polished, genial gentleman, and an accom plished and talented physician. The success ot his work here is best shown by the fact that the standing offer he has given ont to refund money where treatment was riot satisfactory, has not been taken advantage of in a single case, and is certainly a high compliment to his ability. The Courier bears testimony to Dr. McClellan's business promptness promptness and uniform courtesy on all occasions.—Evening Courier.

A word for Dr. Diamond Dick, Dr. George B. McClollan, better known as "Diamond Dick," who has been practicing in Lafayette for several months, and by his skill as a physician, his dignity as a man, lavish expenditure in adver tising, which he says tells every time, and prompt payment of all bills incurred, he has won the admiration and respect of all who have met him professionally and in a business way, and now that he is leaving lis for a broader field in Chicago, the Call wishes for him every happiness and prosperity.— Evening Call.

When Doctor Diamond Dick leaves Lafayette on the 31st inst. he will oarry with with him the best wishes of the 1 lines, and the nnmerons friends ho has made during his stay in our midst. As a healer of diseases the doctor has made a phenomenal success, while he has won a national reputation which cannot be but gratifying to him. Though he has had an enormous praotice among paying patrons, he yet has found time to attend to many who were too poor to buy his medicines, and he has been most generous in this respect in bestowing his time and treatment upon the poorI est. Generous in his nature, square in his dealings with business men, devoted to his practice, he has deserved and won I success and may long life and prosperity be his.—Sunday Times.

Dr. Diamond Dick, at the so-

licitation of many people, has re-

3 3 turned to Crawfordsville for a
