PKCUL1AB VKKDICTS.

Near Batavia, Ohio, several law suits have been Instituted by colored people against prominent white citizens who have been instrumental in preventing the children of these colored citizens from attending the schools of the whites. Quito an excitement and much feeling has Leen aroused in consequence. In the two first trials the verdicts were in favor of the defendants, the juries sustaining the action of the whites. The county iu which these troubles have arisen was the hot-bed of the abolitionists, later it was largely republican at all State and county elections, and these verdicts, under such circumstances, appear peculiar. Yet these men are only demonstrating what is the feeliug of most white men all over the Onion, that the two races must be kept separate, and that their union at any time for any purpose is unnatural. The aim of some to amalgamate can never be a success. It is entirely undesirable for both races. Although the late civil war did away permanently with slavery, it did not fix the status of the colored man. While it way have permitted him to vote aud hold office, there are certain social barriers which he will not be allowed to over-leap. He must, to a certain extent, always remain to himself and with those of his own color. This school trouble in Ohio is only one of many which will hereafter occur. In tho Southern States, for years to come, troubles between whites and blacks will be chronicled, also in the North. It may, to a certain ex tout, be termed prejudice, but all the statutes that can be enacted will not remove it.

ABOLISH THK OFFICE.

While tho school book system is up would it not be a wise plan to abolish the office of county school examiner? Such a thing has occasionally been discussed at former sessions of the Legislature, and a growing sentiment exists all over the State that educational interests can be subserved without this office, if uot better, than with.

Indiana

the office is little less than a political machine, managed generally by county officials. Its average cost in most couuties is $100 per month the year through. Most school superintendents now are chosen for their skill in political jujjglery—-not for peculiar fitness in school inauagement. The office now is greatly changed from the original ideas of those first advocating its creation. It's politics now not educational fitness that generally wanted of the incumbent. Some plan much cheaper and with less political cast about it can certainly be originated for county school management than at present exists. If there is to be a change in the text books by which they will be less expensive to parents than heretofore let there be reformation in other educational interests of the State. Of course every school examiner in the State, many of whom are hardly competent to manage a district school, would oppose the abolition of the office. This would be expected, but there are many more interests to serve than theirs.

THE SCIIOOTj-BOOK TRUST. As is known to everyone a school-book trust or ring has existed in this state for years. Every mau sending his child to school is indirectly compelled to support this school-book combination. Many principals of schools and county school examiners are believed to labor in the interest of this lhr'®lug school-book ring. The firm of VanAntwerp, Bragg & Co. are the peoplo to whom the parents of school children have been compelled for years to pay this tariff duty on books. An effort will be made at the present term of the state legislature to change the order of things regarding school books to see if they cannot bo obtained cheaper and not changed as often as heretofore. If the members of the legislature adjourn without accomplishing something beneficial in this line they will receive the strong condemnation of the people of the entire state. Of course, as is to be expected, the school-book crowd will have a strong lobby ou baud to counteract, if possible, all efforts made in behalf of the people. The lobby will like all such gangs bo amply supplied with tho "munitions of war," to work in the interest of the ring, but it is hoped iu tho interests of honor and the future welfare of the state that It will bo defeated in all its undertakings. AYo need cheaper school books, less changing of them and less authority given to principals of schools in this matter, aud if the legislature so wills it these things can all be brought about.

A N i:\V KMCCTION' UW!™**

0£Givo us a good election law aud there need be no fear of radical boodlers and ofllce seekers again very soon carrying tho majority of the votes of Indiana in their favor. Leave men of all classes to think and act for themselves, throw out no tempting bait of $10 and $20 or the promise of something for their suffrage, and the day of republican triumph is over. For a quarter of a century that party has triumphed by the use of money whenever they have triumphed at all and not by the merits of the principles of their party. Tho disreputable schemes of their party, of the Dudley and the "Slick Six" hue, have won their victories for them, not by the advocacy of honorable and enduriug principles but almost solely by the use of boodle. A law similar to that of Australia would do away to a great extent at least with the men that make it a husiuess to carry elections by dishonorable means. Their occupation would be gone and we could for a time at least expect a fair expression of the people at elections through the state. There is a fair prospect of a better election law being created by tho present legislature than that which now uselessly encumbers the statutes, and honest voters will hope that it may uot prove to be a failure.

THE CRAWFORDSVILLE WEEKLY REVIEW

editor of tho White connty Democrat being couuty superintendent, is in a position to know considerable of the school-book monopoly and no doubt writes understanding when he says: "The Idea of General Hovey being in favor of making war on bcok monopolies is simply a ridiculous joke. The success of the republican ticket In tills state in 1886, as well as a large share' of the victory at the lecent election, was due to tho valiant efforts of one of these concorus in the U. S„ that was then and Is yet to-day doing husiuess at Cincinnati. In 1886 agenta of this firm swarmed all over this state in the interest of Bruce Cair and Lafollette. Since the election in 1886 this firm has doue a land-office business in this state and when the campaign of 1888 opened, campaign documents and personal appeals to vote for Carr came from Cincinnati, showing conclusively that this firm had not forgotten their old agent

THERE is a vast amount of humbtiggery, snobbery aud foolishness in the iuauguiatlon business. Why the newly-elected president cannot proceed qusetly to the proper official, take the oath of office and get right down to business, without so much fuss and feathers, puzzles many people. The fellows prominent in inaguural ceremonies are geueraily those looking out for offices aud the larger the crowd they can manage to draw out the more zealous they desire to seem to those from whom they expect favors. This was the case four yeais ago when Cleveland was inaugurated and the Harrison claquers are following iu the footsteps of their predecessors.

THE grave closed over Ben Hopkins, of Cincinnati, last week, whose navue, iu connection with the bursting of the Fidelity Bank of tbat city, became known far and wide. He and Harper both received penitentiary sentences from the court for their crooked transactions in the management of the bank. He was reprieved only about two weeks ago, went home and died within two or three days. It matters not the amount of wealth a man may have. It is the use he makes of it which is to redound most to bis honor or disgrace. But no truer wordB come from tho Bible than those which say, "A good name is more to be desired than great riches."

INSTEAD of patronizing home talent Presi-dent-elect Ben Harrison has had a Chicago tailor to call upon him lately and take his measure for a suit of clothes to be worn on inauguration day. The Indianapolis tailors probably feel that in the future he should also send off for votes, should ho need them, or they, no doubt, will want more protection and less free trade in order to keep out these foreign tailors. But in either condition it is evident that Harrison did not think there were mechanics iu his city of sufficient ability to rig him up in good style, and bis example may be contagious.

Two women, one of Ohio, the other of Pentsylvania, have been sentenced to be bung Within a few weeks for murder. Both murdered members of their faui'Ues, the Pennsylvania womau poisoning her husband and children to secure a small life insurance. A woman was hung last year in New York, Gov. Hill refusing to interfere with the sentence of the court. Tho execution of women appears to be rare in most states of the Union and it Is probable that the two awaiting execution will have their sentences changed to life imprisonment.

Gov.

GRAY

delivered his last message to the

Legislature on Friday last. The Governor recommends a revision of the election law, speaks also of the movement made by himself and the Attorney-General to suppress the White Cap outrages in the South part of the State, and which indicate .a successful termination. A large number of figures are given indicating the indebtedness of the State to various persons and corporations. The debt of the State is given as about $6,700,000.

THE Attica Ledger is hauling the commissioners of Fountain county over the coals for the awarding of stationery supplies inado by them buring the ensuing year. They advertised, it seems, for the lowest bidder for the contract but failed to award it accordingly, Counties that let out contracts for stationery it is said always pay more for it than thoso that do not. The contract Dusiuooa as managed by county commissioners in the past few years is a fraud.

MARK it down as a fact that no President of the past thirty years will assume more style aud lordly airs than tho incoming Ben. The amount of dignity he will throw into the matter will be worthy of the highest-toned monarchy of Europe. He has already order8(1 $7,000 worth of carriages from the Studebaker establishment of Chicago, aud the populacB at "Washington may expect to be dazzled with the grandeur of the equippages belonging to the White House.

"LIKUT.-GOV." Robertson again made an attempt at the convening of the legislature last week to install himself as presiding officor of the Senate until the uewly elected LieutenantGovernor, Chase, should take hold, but was repulsed again. Robertson has bad an unusually hard lime trying to hold an office and unless Harrison gives him something when the new administration conies in he will faro badly, of ficinlly.

THE New York World recently asked an employe of a carpet factory "Why did you not vote for Cleveland?" Ho replied, "Because I was a fool," A good many other worltiugmen wi'l be prepared to answer the question in tho same way before many months have passed. Especially if they have tho same experience as did this one, whose wages were cut down soon after the election. 'r

Seven trustees for Purdue university. Six nieuibeis of the board of health. Four commissioners for each of the metropolitan police boards of Indianapolis and Evausville to he appointed by the governor, secretary of stale, auditor and ti epsurer.

Four stall house commissioners whose office will cease to ex-st as soon as the stab'-house is accepted by the legislature.

Acquitted of Murder.

¶ Thomas Fitzgerald, marshal of Carbon, was last week acquitted of the charge of murder. Feb. 20, last, he shot and killed John Goeschbraska, a miner, while discharging his duty as an officer. A gang of toughs had engaged in a brawl on the street and when commanded to disperse by Fitzgerald they turned upon him with clubs, rocks and knives. He warned them but they persisted and he killed the foremost The rest fled. For this he was bound over to court but the jury unanimously acquitted him. The Australians, a colony of whom had located at Carbon, while celebrating a wedding a few weeks before, had rilled [killed] one of their number. In the carousals at other weddings fights ensued, knives, revolvers, clubs and rocks being used freely. A through mail train was fired into. The town was under a reign of terror and authorities from Brazil were called upon to make arrests. Fitzgerald was afterward elected marshal and he restored order though prosecuted for murder.

•'Doubting- Thomases."

remarked an eminent divine, "must exist in ratio to the too credulous." Tho habit of cautiousness is not, as a general thing, inborn, but ia the result of a naturally generous and confiding nature repeatedly victimized by the cunning and crafty. So the many disappointments and o'toa injurious effects arising from the use of various vaunted remedies have induced an undue cautiousness and in many cases entire abandonment of the use of any. We call attention to the remedies of Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, that physicians are employing in their practice with the most beneficial results. His 'Golden Medical Discovery," for diseases of the lungs and kidneys, heart affections, fever and aguo, dropsy aud all diseases of the blood, has never failed when put to the teal.
