T11K ONt.UKS-lONAI. ll.V.1 K. So far but little has been said by P.e

and whose names wiii be presented to the convention which \yiil bv held at Terre liaule probably about, the first week in ..August. Among the active candidates are Hon. Geo. W. Buff, of Sullivan. Hon. E. S. Halliflay. of Clav, Hon. James T. Johnston, of Parke and Hon. Georg-e W, Faris. pf Vigo. Dr. M. L. TIaU, of Vermillion and lion. Frank Sargent, of Vigo' have also been mentioned as possible candidates. Neither Montgomery nor Fountain are in the race with men whose names will be presented to the convention. So far as this part of the district is concerned the Republicans will cast their votes in favor o£ the 'candidates who will alike run the strongest race and make the most creditable representative in Gontrress. These two elements. the elements of strength and ability, mast be combined. Notwithstanding we are in a gerrymandered district. with from X.-CK) to 1 .5h Democratic majority to overcome. it is believed that with a candidate possessing these, two elements the district can be redeemed and a Kepublican representative »ent ko Ci»nirress. Without any dis[iaragcment to any other of the gentlemen named Thk Joi knal believes, .'judging fn-icu tne expressions of leading llepub'r.cans. tlvat the concensus: of opinion is favorable to the candidacy of Hon. lieorge W. Faris. of Vigo. ,.Mr. Faris is a native of Jasper county, this Mate. He was reared on a farm where he worked until he entered college at GK-encastle. After graduating with -high honors he entered the office of Judge Claypooi at Indianapolis, a.s a law student, and. in '1M located in at Terre Haute. By his untiring efforts he lias acquired a lucrative practice: but amid all the multifarious du ties of a busy lawyer lie has ever taken an active interest in politics and his iabors have been iuce.^saiu for the success of the Republican ticket.

He is a gentleman of ne presence, jrood address and is a speaker of no mean abniiy. Take it all in all. we believe Mr. Faris is the proper man the Iiegublieans should nominate as their candidate for Congress.

Ues. C. H. (iii'isvKS'iin. of Ohio, was on Monday renominated for Congress by acclamation. In the course of his speech of accepiance he said:

This Administration has made unceasing war upon the old soldiers. It struck from the pension roils, by suspension or otherwise, nineteen hundred names in the State of Ohio alone in the eariy summer of last year. For political purposes. I am bound to believe it. it, reinstated l.^'i of them during the month of iii-tober last, generally." and almost entirely without evidence or sug-e^tion t»eyond political necessity, Following the election, and the. triumphant vindication of McKinlejv the work of removing thee men from the pension roll or cutting down- their -pensions has gone steadily on. until a high authority" states -that they \viU reduce the pensions s3'J,i"si.Ofxj this year. They will subtend and cut down to the extent OF S'" (VO.uai No leg:slat,on in tr.v interest-of the soldier has ie«n passed, nor will there be. '.

Six of Secretary "iresham's decision* were recently overruled by the -supreme Court. But they were not decisions he made in poker.—''in'-innuti Trdiiuic.

We believi-it will be generally conceded that Secretary (Jrcsham. too. knows more about poker than he knows of foreign diplomacy. He imagined he held a "royal ritish"' in the Hawaiian game but it proved to be only a "bobtaii dush."

Thk Marion county bar has taken steps looking to a non partisan beneh for the Superior court. The plan provides that a Republican and a (lemocrat shall be placed cn the Democratic ticket, and that a Republican and Democrat shall be placed on the Republican ticket, as the opposing candidates. In the event of the election of either ticket the court would be divided, politically.

COVETED ISLANDS.

Interesting Pacific Group Whlob Mexico Is Said to Claim.

Santa Cntalin* and Other Islets Tpoe Which Va»t Herds of Sbeep Are Halted—C haracter of the

Inhabitant*.

The story told by special dispatch from the City of Mexico that the Mexican government would probably soon lav claim's at Washington to Santa Catalina. Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa islands has elicited considerable comment. By most persons who reside in Santa ltarbara, Ventura and other coa.-.t counties contiguous to thesa islands, says the San Francisco Chronicle, it was not believed that Mexico could make the claim stick. While •otne Mexicans have resided on these islands, the islands have, it is stated, been held mainly, when at all. by Americans who were interested in sheep raising and puano. Mexico has never, in all the years since the cession °f California to the United States, made ar.y claim to them, and it is claimed that they were nominally included in the treaties of iSIP and 1S4S, if not. in fact, stated in detail. On this ground it is urged that Mexico cannot rightly claim them.

This was the substance of a statement of William

l'f

Mondeson,

an old

resident of Santa Barbara county. It is said that James Lick once laid claim to Santa Catalina island, and that for a lorur time he had a larire band of sheep there.

The islands claimed by Mexico belong to the channel gTonp, so called, which numbers seven distinct islets, lying off the coast below the sharp turn of the mainland to the southeast, Geologists have a theory that these channel isles are the mountain summils of a peninsula that once extended

the mainland g"ive justification to

this surmise, although Catalina has many specimens of flora plainly showing drift from the south to her peaceful shores.

Cabrtllo discovered" and named Catalina in 1542, and speaks of the bronzed hair and -ruddy complexion of the natives, thus showing their differentiation from' the black-haired, dull-brown races on the California shore, and suggesting the same northward emigration that can be proved of the flowers. izcano later spoke of the houses thatched with shells, the temples where graven images were worshiped and birds were sacrificed. This superior form of worship indicates, too. a vast improvement upon the Digger huts of reeds and filthy fetich worship, with the covote for a god. The islanders were water-farers and workers in stone, another point in which they excelled the landsmen. Their canoes were of hollowed logs, made watertight with apha'uim. The Smithsonian institution has removed over thirty tons of relics of stoneware excavated from these islands.

Jsoon after the early Spanish visits the .northern seal hunters sailed down upon the unoffending islanders, and with Tartar rh'ndishness killed or aimed to kill every male inhabitant along the channel. The race languished anu the progeny of the few who escaped were taken from the islands to the missions at anta Barbara and Purisaima early in ISCK'i, all but the poor forgotten woman, whom Nldever found years after a gibbering idiot.

Santa Catalina is one of the best known of the channel islands, particularly since the establishment on it of a summer resort. Avaloa. with a hotel and regular steamer service in the season. Santa t. ruz. is the largest of the Santa Barbara channel group and lies twenty-one miles off shore. Fast and west its length is twenty-one miles, and it has an average width of four miles. Its coast line is about sixty miles. The eastern portion is irregular. barren and waterless, while the northeastern part is covered with large rocks. St-veral species of cactus and coarse grasses flourish in this region. The shores are bold and rugged, bordered with a dark gray sandstone. The elevation of the highest point is 1,520 feet, and it is visible for a distance of forty miles. San Pedro point is the name of the eastern extremity. A mile or so west is a rooky ridge known as Cavern point. Other portions of the island are known as Diablo point. West point and Frazer point. Small bays and coves which afford anchorage for small craft Indent the shore. These are known as Prisoner's harbor: Chinese harbor, Pelican bay. Tyler cove. Scorpion harbor, Tinker harbor. Piatt's harbor. Smuggler's cove. Shaw's anchorage, Vallcy anchorage, Albert anchorage, Alamos anchorage, Posa anchorage and Fowey's cove.

Santa Rosa island is a landmark bold in contour, though it is not so high as Santa 'Cruz. Motlerately round hilltops are Irdble on all sides. The greatest elevation is I.•"-! feet above the sea level. There are no large trees on the island, although it is well watered, but scrub oak and pine in small clumps are to be found in the gulches. Grass and heritage grow in great abundance. Along the northwest side is an indented shore line ten and a half miles long. There is a plateau arising from the water edge to the foot of the mountains. It is 3+0 feet above the sea and is traversed by numbers of narrow gulches. The south side is also bordered by bold, straight bluffs. The area of the island is about one hun-

dred square miles. Along the shore at a distance of four or five miles apart good boat landings may be fonnd. tanta Catalina lies off San Pedro bay and San Pedro hill at a distance of nineteen miles. The passage between the island and the mainland is called tan Pedro channel. Santa Catalina is eighteen miles long, with an extreme breadth of seven miles, and an iverage breadth of four miles in the southeastern part and two miles in the northwestern. The narrowest p6itit is at the ithmu, which is half a mile wide

KNOWN OF ALL OBSERVERS.

The Rr!de and lirtwm Unable to They Attract**! S«» Much Attention. One stormy day recently a handsome carriage came dashing down Fifth avenue. New York, with a yard of white ribbon flying at the pole, says a correspondent of the Pittsburgh Dispatch. Everybody paused long enough to take a second look at it, and everybody who did saw more white ribbon tied in the door handles. As it went bv the cabmen congregated in front of the Fifth Avenue hotel turned and stared, and the gentlemen loungers within rubbed their noses against the piate glass at the curious sight. Behind the carriage and pendant from the axle swung a dainty white kid slipper by a white ribbon. And the wind blew and the snow and rain swept, by in vicious gtists. and the mud and water splashed the white ribbon and flecked the delicate little slipper but the bright young couple, snugly wrapped t-o the chin on the back seat.-were blissfully unconscious of all. It is possible they may have wondered how everybody seemed to know that they were just married and on the way to the railwaystation for the happy wedding tour. Perhaps they marveled that one carriage on Fifth avenue among so many should attract so much attention and why everybody smiled and beckoned to his fellow and smiled again. "We're married." was thus daunted in the face of all New York. The street urchins shouted a wild approval as the carriage passed, ami some of them yelled: "Git on to the bride'*' "Babv mine.'*' "Oh. my eyes'." "Good-by, darling!" and so on. after the fashion of the gamin world, while the big black coachman on the box grinned from behind his rich astrachan livery and was the envied of his kind. If that young couple entertained any doubts as to the reason for all these unexpected demonstrations they were probablv duly enlightened when they reached the station. Their friends who sent them thus gayly heralded on their wedding journey possibly enjoyed the joke better than the newly made bride and groom.

Decorated French omen.

Among the persons upon whom the order of the Legion of Honor was conferred recently was Mme, Koeeh-lin-Schwartz. president of the French Women's union. At the present time about twenty women are entitled to wear the red ribbon. Most pf these are Sisters of Mercy or women who have been decorate.! in times of war. For services in "civil life." in addition to Mme. Koechlin-Schwart. Rosa Bonheur. Mme. Furtado-Heine, and Mme. Marie Laurent, who founded the artist orphan asylum'of Paris, have received the decoration:

A T1 inr!v Warning.

An innocent little fellow, to whom intoxication was an unknown evil, went out for 3 walk the other c.ay and, as he was returning, saw before, his own house a man whose curious lurches and stacgering compelled an explanation from an accompanying nurse, and seeing at that moment a younger brother running to meet him. he waved him away into the hall door: Go back. Harold." he cried excitedly, "go back. Yciu might get druck!''

THE BIG STORE

Alpha and Omega

The3e two words perfectly describe the events that will take place this week in the lives ot twenty-one of our rising generation. This week twenty-one young ladies and gentlemen bid adieu to school life and push out into the cold and merciless world to earn their own living. Let us hope that their fondest expectations may be realized and more. That they may be model young men and women, ornaments to society and shining lights each in their respective vocations. From earlier times than the date of the Roman Empire it has been customary to have ceremonies of pomp and splendor to usher new warriors into the battle of lile. So it will be this week. We will each try to out-do the other in attendance on the entertainments given honoring

The Class of '94.

This is as it should be. Let us give them the freedom of the city. Let us give them such god speed that it will encourage them for many days to come.

Now! A Word
