Addison Hartley's Gift.
iNWANAroLis, Ind.. Oct. 29.—Tuesday was a great day at Hadley, the Quaker villago twenty-four miles west of this sity. Addison Iladley and Martha Jane, his wife, a well-to-do couple just past the meridian of life, deeded as a free gift to the' Woman's Christian Temperaace Union of Indiana a Bne farm of 110 aeros, to be used as the location of an industrial school for twirls. Tho only condition imposed by the donors is that the Woman's Christian Temperance Union shall have in hand a funil of not less than 550,000 by February 1, lS'.U, with which to erecft and suitably equip buildings for the school. Over S'."\«.'00 is already subscribed, and there will be no difficulty In securing tho cash by the time set. The formal transferor the property was made the occasion of a celebration and Jubilee.
Mr. Hadley sent word to the Woman's Christian Temperance Union leaders to come from all over tho State and bring their friends. They need not bring lunch baskots, ho said, as he would see to all matters pertaining to dinner himself. It was the original plan to have the celebration in the grove on the farm, and with that view long tables were constructed. When tho visitors arrived they were taken first to the grove, where they shivered about a huge bonfire for awhile. Then all repaired to the comfortable brick school-house in the village, and there the exercises of the day, including the fine country dinner, were held. Aboard of trustees composed of the following persons was appointed to control the property:
Mrs. Mary E. Haggart, of Indianapolis, President: Mrs. L. M. Beck, of Bloomington, VicePresident Mrs. l: E. Reed, of Indianapolis, Corresponding Secretary Miss Alice V. Hastings of Kiohraond, Recording Secretary Miss Mary G. Hay, of Indianapolis, Treasurer Mrs. J. K. Nichols, of Indianapolis Mrs. Caroline Eilyorton, or Dunrelth Miss Mary Hadley, of Bloomington, and Mrs. C. C. Hodjjin, of Richmond.
The purpose of the Woman's Christian Temperance Union is to make the Hadley school most comprehensive in its scope. Instruction will be given not only in all kinds of house-work and sewing but in small|fruit-growing, floriculture, gardening, dairy work, poultry' raising and other farm pursuits adapted to women. The school will be open needy girls from all parts of the State free of charge, and girls who are able to pay will be admitted up'6n the payment of a small fee. ^Indictment Found Against Wood.

Governor Hill's Charges Against the Gensua Bureau.
THE SECRETARY'S CAUSTIC ANSWER,
The Head of the Interior Department Uses Strong Language In Rep ylng to the Imputations of New York's
Executive.
HE NEEDS NO ADVICE.
WASHINGTON, NOV. 4.—It will be remembered that several days ago Governor Hill, of Now York, addressed a letter to Secretary Noble complaining of the incompleteness of tho oflloial enumeration of tho city of New York during the taking of the census and demanding a recount In the course of his letter tho Governor said: "Your conviction as to tho completeness of the Federal count Is undoubtedly based upon your confidence in the thoroughness of the work done by the Federal employes, but the same oonfldence does not seem to be Bhared, I regret to say, by any considerable portion of the people of New York. Nor do the people of that olty appear to share your belief in the unimpeachable character of the Federal enumerators. This is a time for plain words. Every enumerator selected to count the Inhabitants of that great Bemooratle city waj a partisan of the party now In (Xmtrol of the National Government appointed for past political service and upon the reo. ommendation of local party leaders. Many of them were notoriously inoompetent, ignorant and oareless. It was to their polltioal Interest that the party from which they had reoelved patronage should be the beneficiary of their labors. Under these conditions the susplolon Is hardly unjustifiable that, dlreotly or Indirectly, political motives to a large degree explain the defectiveness of the Federal oount."
Secretary Noble has mailed the following letter to Governor Hill: "HON. DAVID B. HILL, GOVERNOR O* THB STATE OP NEW YORK—Sir: Your communication of the 3lst ult. was duly recived. There had already been delivered to me a letter from the mayor of the city of New York on the same subject—tho claim of that olty to a reoount of Its population by the United States census authorities. While you have added the weight of the Governor's office to the oomplaint, you have failed to add to that already presented by the mayor a single suggestion of the slightest value. 1^ wholly unnecessary for you to remind me of the provisions of the constitution of the United States relating to enumeration ar.d apportionment of representatives or the Electoral College or the provision of the tensus law allowing amendments and recounts. All of this was very famil lar law to me and your quotation it might have been copied from my last opinion delivered to the mayor, and which you say you had read in the newspapers. "Neither did I need any exhortation upon the subject of fair apportionments, as an equal apportionment throughout the United States and the perfect freedom and equality of the individual elector is a reform to which I have given my earnest support and which is worthy that of every public officer and every Indvldual oiticen. Had you read the correspondence with the mayor, whose immediate concern this business has been, you would have found your topic already exhausted. "It 1B much to be regretted that in a letter to me when acting upon a purely official matter you, as Governor, should speak as a partisan and impute a corrupt purpose to the census enumerators to secure party advantage by diminishing the count of the city of New York. Your imputation against the enumerators and the oensus work is so entirely gratuitous and unfounded as to be slanderous, as you should know that your abusive course could not tend to promote that fair and judloial oonBldiratlon I have been disposed to give to the application of the mayor. Your charge imputing fraudulent motives toothers rather suggests that as your party thinks an Increased population would inure to Its advantage, the oount of the police (taken as it has been since the police board of New York has been made partisan) needs the very closest scrutiny and analysis. The charges now being made in New York against the city government by Democrats are not of a kind to relieve any work done by it from tho gravest suspicion of reckless partisanship. "Your accusations, heretofore confined to interviews and stump speeches, began even before the enumeration was announced. Some of the Democratic newspapers in New York and elsewhere piade the census enumerators' work vary difficult by cxciting the prejudice of ignorance, and it is to bo remarked that you as early as the 1st of July last mado an address before the Hendricks Club at Indianapolis, Ind., in which you bitterly assailed the Census Office and its work, and asserted, without any knowledge whatever, the same evil purpose you now send to nie officially. You then repeated the newspaper criticisms and spoke of the •great army of inquisitors sent prying into our houses asking impertinent Questions, making false records,' eZe., and you did not fail to notice the vossible effect «f all this in raising popular distrust and disinclination to respond to the enumerators. Yoi. did not succeed in these efforts to any considerable degree, but you are largely responsible for any inaccuracies that may exist. You set the example by denouncing a law of Congress and the suggestion of its violation by your less acute political followers. Your early and continuous partisan assaults upon the census have had necessarily a motive which is easily discerned. That motive points to an unjust end which I certainly shall not promote. It is but just that there should be no delay in completing the oensus, that the purposes for which it is intended may bo accomplished. "You further asserted in the speech mentioned that it (tho Republican party) will not repudia'e that even more plainly declared policy breaking the power of the solid South in Presidential as well as Congressional eleotions by deliberately ignoring the vast increases of population in that section of the country dnrlng the last decade. The truth Is no complaint whatever has boon received from any Southern State, as a State, against the oensus, and the only serious claim of an erroneous diminution of population and representation by a State came from the Republican Stato of Oregon. Out of the 8,781 counties in all the States and Territories there has been no complaint whatever save from Multnomah County in 'Oregon. There has not been a complaint from any Southern city that has not been pivmptiy and satisfactorily adjusted without a rac-mut save at Columbus, Ga., and there was foj:id an increase of 1,191 only. "You seem to be against a census to be taken even by your own S: ate, for you vetoed a blLi passed by its Legis.utura in 1885 and which wa» required by Its constitution. It is reasonable to suppose that the patronage you seem to think so influential in political affairs would not have falU-n into your hands, or, judging you by the standard you apply to others, your official action would have been just the opposite of what it \vd». "As I havo demonsl' iited, the general body of the people of the I'tnied Statos aro content with the census and are uninfluenced by partisan assault such as yours. Sustained by their confldcnce, I'shall proceed with the dlsoharge of my official duties in this and other business oomlng before me, carefully and justly, correcting what I may be convinced is wrong and fearlessly adhering to what 1 believe to be right. "I regret the necessity of addressing the Chief magistrate of tho leading State of the Union in tho terms I have employed, but I find my justification in the reckless intemperance of language you have seen fit to use—language which is laoking as muoh In truth as it is in the dignity befitting your great office, which la the past has been filled by eminent men of both politioal parties of New York. "Upon the merits ot the mayor's application I shall reply to him."
