A FALLDN HERO.
The Tall Sycamore, under whose umbrageous branches the Democracy of Indiana have (or many yeare sat is blissful repose, worshipers as it were of a political idol, is at last a prostrate leader. The Washington correspondent o! the New York Tribune draws this pathetic picture of this onoe proud but greatly overrated man:
As for poor Voorbe»9, once one of the most popular men among bia party friends In the Senate, he Is rarely the recipient now of a courteous word. He dallr comes Into the chamber unattended save by his clerk, and steals into his seat as If he were a culprit. Everybody seems to avoid him. He busies himself with his correspondence, reads the papers, occasionally crosses the chamber to ecu for with so Be Republican friend of the bill, 'but rarely turns to engage in conversation with one of his Democratic associates. Oorham,hls
Immediate neighbor, is the only one that once In a while seems to whisper some vords of consolation into the ear of the unhappy leader. Kor a time It brightens the features of the representee of the Admlnlstraton. It is not for long, however. Presently he relapses into lib old condition of listless apathy,he mechanically lingers the papers upon his desk, he looks despairingly at the clock, and giglia for tbe hour of relief to strike. Under the strain ol the last few weeks the furrows of his forehead have deepened, the color of his face has assumed an ashen hue, and his walk has become that of an old man. He is the'picture of abject misery.
A .cader in name only, he is made to feel the bitterness of a defeat he could not avert while tbe real leaders of the majority enjoy his discomfiture and are securely intrenched In temporary obscurity. Through the irony of fate placed In a position where talent and aptitude might have supplied. If he had possessed them, the lack of training and previous experience, he realizes his Incompetency, his utter inablllty to rise superior to such obstacles and the hopelessness of the struggle he is engaged In. There is nothing more pathetic than the picture of this old Democratic swash-buckler, who probably fancied that he would spend the evening of his life in the quiet of the Senate chamber, amid congenial surroundings, and resting upon the laurels of a stormy past, tossed about helpless as a child in a fierce struggle pf contending factions, the football of exulting rivals, an object of hatred and contempt, forsaken by friends and riuioaled and despised by enemies.
IT will be remembered that one of the earliest acts of the Cleveland reform administration, contemporaneous with pulling down the flag at Honolulu, was to pay a couple of millions to the Chootaws and Chickasaws on a claim the payment of which had been forbidden by President Harrison. Of course everybody knew the Indians would get very little if any of the money. That there was a $700,000 clear Bwindle was the Btory at the time and the probability. It was not supposed Cleveland would allow, this job to be made a decoration of his administration, but a correspondent says: "Before three months of the new administration had expired the claim was paid, the 2700,000 divided between the howling combination who claimed partione of it, and the residue sent out to the Choctaws and Chicka saws. Some 81,400,000 went into the hands of Treasurer McCurtain tor the Choctaws." And just now the Treasurer of the Choctaw Nation is an ab sconding defaulter to a large amount, perhaps $400,000.
HKN'KT W ATTERSON is not pleased with qtie outlook. "If we cannot repeal the Sherman act we cannot pass a tariff bin," he says in the Louisville CourierJournal. "If the silver Senators Bre able to prevent a vote on the Sherman act the Republican members can prevent a vote on the federal election repeal bill. If these three Democratic measures fail, from any cause, good-bye to the Democratic party."
LOUISVILLE has already sent a train load of 6chool children, under the care of teachers, to Chicago to see the Fair. Joliet and other towns in Illinois have done likewise and now that the opportunity is presented to the children of Crawfordsville the parents should strain a point to enable them to go. It will be to them a memorable holiday.
THE Chicago Inter Ocean estimates that the hard times have postponed 500,000 weddings. This in turn shuts off preachers' fees and paralyzes the infant cradle industry. A Democratic administration is an expensive luxury.
NEW YOBK bets are freely made that McEinley's majority will be 50,000.
