THIRD PARTY CONVENTION.

A conveution of over 1,400 person?, representing about all tbe parties and isms in the United States met a', Cincinnati last .week to inaugurate a tbird party movement. There were present prominent representatives from the Farmers' Alliaace, Knights, of Labor, Womans' Suffrage, Prohibition and other organizations. There were, however, no representations from the Anarchists, of Chicago, or Mafia, of New Orleans, although we do not know but they, of course, like all the rest have grievances, are not satisfied with the management of affairs iu this country and desires a change. The thud party proposes to revolutionize matters very generally when it succeeds in control. It will have au entire change in the money system and financial management if tbe government, will see that laboring men have fewer hours for toil and better pay, will step the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors, will allow the female portiou of the country to vote and bold •ffice, iu fact will thoroughly renovate and completely change the past and present plan* of doing things, will make in fact, this country au earthly paradise, when it assumes the reius of government— yes when it does.

We doubt very much about the permanency of this new party movement. It is composed of too many discordeut elements, has too many impractical leaders, is undertaking entirely too much to succeed or have long life. It is toe much under the control of brokeu down or disappointed purty leaders—men who having out lived their usefulness iu the other old political parties are seeking to instal themselves iuto something new. The names of Weaver or Iowa, Doutelly of Miuuesota, and Streeter, of Illinois, are among those mentioned a» prominent in this new third party movement. All these men have no longer any standing with the old political organizations. Hence they seek new fellowship without qaestioaing tbe practabllity or benefit to ba divided therefrom, or its absolute necessity. A man practically played out in his own neighborhood is very apt to remove to some other locality. There is nothing iu their just demands but what sooner or later can be sutitlied in either of the old politieal organizations, and so soon as the people are ripe for it. Hence the uselessness of the third party, and likewise tt indications all things considered, as to its permanency as a power.

REVISION OF FAITH.

The Presoyterian denomination of Christians have for a long time been discussing the matter of the revision of the faith tbey profess. Heretofore a part of their profession was the belief iu the utter loss of infants who died unconverted, uubaptised or unregenerated. Many of them have changed their opinion and do not believe auy such heathenish, unchristian doctrine auy longer. The general assembly of the church at Detroit last week had this question before it, but postponed final decision until the next annual meeting. From tbe old faith which they have heretofore held regarding the existence hereafter of infants, it is proposed to change the discipline to read as follows:

All infants dying iu infancy, and all other persons who, from birth to death, are mcapable of being outwardly called by the ministry of the world, are redeemed by Christ and r( generated «y the spirit, who worketh when, where and how he pleaseth.

This is a radical alteration, differing from the old confession in the insertion of the words "all," "from birth to death," "are redeemed," and "and are regenerated by the spirit." It in quite probable that a majority of the Presbyterians of the world art* beginning to realize that they are living in the 19th century, and that the doctrine of hellfire and brimstone, Jonah swallowed by the whale, and many other matters taught and told for centuries past, together with the infant damnation business, will not lu this day of advancement, civilization aud true Christian enlightenment do to tell the people. They won't believe it. It is contrary to their ideas of (Jod's will toward bis creatures, and the Presbyterians are takiug a great step forward iu adopting this new and humane doctrine regarding the future of infants or those dying, or being incapable of being oulwardly called by tbe ministry of the world."

PENSIONS AS VIEWED BY A REU-HOT PUBLICAN PAPER. The Chicago Tribune is the recognized and leading Republican paper of the west. Commenting on "pension frauds" it says: "The abuses of the pension system are illustrated by the manner in which 115 one-hun-dred-day men from Ohio have been reinstated on the rolls. Their scheme to get a pension was carefully organized, and they succeeded in getting one some time ago. From evidence furnished him. Gen. Black ordered these claims held up pendiug an investigation, which was still pending when Corporal Tanner came into office. As tho result of the investigation they finally were dropped, but now tbey have managed by some kind of iniluence to get back on the rolls again. They are to draw pensions for the rest of their lives for one hundred days' play in Washington, in which they never fired a shot and never saw a rebel, and in which not ono of them was even sick. By fraud and deceit tliey got on the rolls originally. Then they were hung up and rejected, and now here tbey are again in some mysterious manner

from the Treasury to pay them for

their bundred-day picnic. Tbey are patriots for revenue only. It is just such outrages as this which have brought scandal on the pension business. If the rolls were investigated and cleaned up under a fair construction of tbe law, fully one-fourth of the names would be taken off as having no legal right there."

OUR State taxes for 1891, will be 24}^ on the $100.00 our national taxes are 60 cents on the dollar, under the new McKinley law. Radical politicians are kicking harder on the State, than they are on the national tax. Something strange aboat this, too. ... .... ....

THE CRAWFOKJDS\ JLULE WEEKLY REVIEW,

EVEN as bitter a partisan TS President Harrises condemns the unseating of Governor Boyd, of Nebraska. In speaking of the action of the Nebraska supreme court he is reported to have said: 1 do not kuow of ttu) trtbui which 1 so deeply regret as the displacement of Mr. Boyd. I do not pretend to be able to •peak of the situation, as it might effect the business Interests of Nebraska. But speaking merely as a Republican, I regard it as one of the heaviest blows which tne party could possibly suffer. I don't doubt that the supreme conrt took the course it recognized as proper, but it is, indeed, unfortunate for the Republican party that the necessiiy arose for the displacement of a Democrat elected by the pevple by a court eoustituted solely of Republicans. It would have been far better for Mr. Boyd to have served out bis term of offite unchallenged than that the party should bear the charge of having ousted him fr«m office. The lawyer is quick to perceive a legal technicality, but it is quite a different thing to impress upon the people the equity of a technicality which practically disfranchises the po-ular vote. Should it happen be any Strang-: 11'« that Mr. Boyd should recover the office in the federal court the populaee would at ouce accept such a decision as a complete ondorsomeut of the suspicion that the decisis.. us

NO LO: GER A BLAIM.

It formerly was the c-iitu »ue «f the inducements to reside in Crawfordsville that taxes were low and the ci. ..ce from debt. We can make this eluuu no longer. The electric light plant, tne wisdom of the purchase of which is very much doubted, has fastened a debt upon us which will require years to pay, ami the taxes must of necessity be considerably higher thau heretofore. The establishment also of this plant has likewise created the establishment of a number of petty official positions, which the tax-payers will lixve to par, aud which will always be the source of political couteution. An eleetrician, au engineer and a lineman are all made political positions hereafter, and tbe tax-payers must pay for the services of all these men. The time for reflection on the wisdom of the purchase of the electric light plant will come as each citizen pays an increased sum in taxes, but then it will be too late. He will then think the powers of a city council should be abreviated, should be lessoned, but what benefit will this be? He can only pay the increased taxes and bear the burden as best he can.

EX-CONGRESSMAN OWKN, well known here, defeated at the election last fall for Congress by a democrat of the Logansport district, still bankers after office. He is now iu Washington City. A correspondent says: "It is understood that the object of Mr. Owen's visit is to prevail upon the President to appoint him to the position of Superinten dent of Immigration, one of tbe numerous new offices created by the "Billion Congress. Tbe bill creating this position was introduced and engineered through Congress through the efforts ef Mr, Owens. It is worth §4,000 a year and the official will hare to reside in Washington.

Mr. Owen called on the President this afternoon and bad a long talk with him about his ambition. He wants tbe place badly, and urged the President to give it to him. Tbe President, however, wanted to appoint a gentleman from Buffalo, who has achieved some reputation as a labor agitator, but tbe impression and strong belief is that the President has concluded to waive his personal preference and that the Logansport gentleman will secure the prize.

MANY democrats in favoring ex-Pretident Cleveland as the nominee on the national democratic ticket in 1892 for president do so on tbe ground of bis former position against the present tariff law. They seem to opine that no other candidate would assume similar action. This is an error. Plenty of thein would be jast as outspoken against it. It waj the high station Cleveland occupied that directed attentention to him in hii message in 1887 denouncing the tariff laws. There were and are many other prominent democrats who think just aa he did. It was the circumstances and the position that made Cleveland so prominent on the'tariff question. The idea that all the good qualities for high official positions of any kind are concentrated in one inan is preposterous and delusive. Let the democracy seek elsewhere for a candidate for president than New York and their wisdom will be shown.

The iniquity oi tne law will be felt in the State tax, which will be increased from 100 to 150 per cent.—Journal.

The Journal probably believes in the practice if you tell a falsehood at all tell a big one. It says tho State tax will be increased 100 to 150 per. cent. According to this a man charged on the tax duplicate, heretofore say with a State tax of $5 will hereafter be compelled te pay $10 or $12.50, as incorrect and false an assertion as could well be started. The additional State tax as the Journal well knows is per cent.—no more no less. The increased taxation as all fair minded men are aware is necessary to pay for new asylum buildings, State Hoeus, Soldiers' Monument, etc., the building of which was strongly urged and favored by scores of republican legislators.

REMARKABLE ENDURANCE.

The endurance of some human beings under constant strain and tension of muscle, nerves and brain is oftimes remarkable. The prize fight between Jackson and Corbett at San Frp.ncisco last week is a fitting instance of this. Both of these men weighed near 190 pounds each, were in the best of condition and both fought with the determination to win the championship and the $10,000 that was put up for the purpose, yet neither of them was successful. Tbey pounded each other for four hours, and yet were compelled to hear the referee decide it a draw. Occasionally other contests in the prize ring havo been of equal duration, yet it is astonishiug what men will endure for a little doubtful glory and money.

THE enumeration of school children at Indianapolis, just completed, shows 13,500 less than last year, and in consequence there will be about $40,000 less of the school fund to run the schools with than heretofore. The assertion that in many cities of the state the enumeration of school children was Incorrect, was padded, etc., in order to give the school officials the use of that additional sum of money more than they were entitled to, is proven correct so far as Indianapolis is concerned, at least.

AN Indianapolis firm paid $525 for choice of seats at the May Musical Festival consisting of three nights only in that city this week. It is probable that none of the firm had seen any May festivals heretofore,

IT is the acme of meanness in the Cincinnati Enquirer to aim to work up a feeling against Gov. Campbell, the present democratic executive of Ohio, solely on personal grounds, as it seems to bo iloiug. It did the same thing underhnnded'y when Allen G. Thurmau was a candidate for senator against Coal Oil Payne. The Enquirer is occasionally termed a democratic newspaper, but has a decidedly peculiar way of exhibiting its democracy. Regarding the war on Campbell it all appears to be the result of political spite work. He seems to have made an excellent executive, and if he is not elected we doubt vory much if any other democratic nominee can be in a state as changeable in the matter of governers as Ohio has been for twenty years past.

EX-TREASURKR HOUSTAN, who lately resigned his $6,000 position and was succeeded by Ene Nebaker, of Corington, is, it is reported, soon, in conjunction with others, to start a daily newspaper at Indianapolis, which is expected to be decidedly anti-administration in tone. Houstan, who war, previous to the advent of Harrison's nomination, an ordinary country politician at Connersville, imagines, perhaps, that his great qualities hare not been appreciated. They will be, howerer, after he is well in the harness as boss of a daily newspaper. He will rery gladly be willing to let go after a brief season in the field of journal" ism.

As republican administrations find it impossible to ran the pension department of the government without having some dishonest scoundrels to manage it or to be in some way connected with it it may be well to abolish the office altogether, or place some good square man like Gen. Black at the head of it. The scoundrley and dishonest transactions arising from that department are disgraceful to the nation and to those for whom the offlee was originated and for whose benefit it exiBts.

Some one drawing a salary, no doubt, is sending out from Chicago every week from three to four columus of printed circulars relating to the world's fair to be held in that oity, to newspapers all over the west aud asking that they be republished free. This is the height of gall and publishers should consign them to the waste basket as soon as they ar_ rive. Unless there is a cash consideration for their publication no attention should be paid them.

THE billion dollar congress should put the people to thinking. Fer extravagance, it has no equal in American history. How the Republican party ean go before the peepie asking their support, with an extravagance record, is a puzzler. The Republican party has had control of the law makiug power, of the national gorernment for thirty years and the people are oppressed more every year. Tne people can not get any legislation in their favor until the Republican party is turned out of power.

REPUBLICAN paper* through the State have been entirely too perinature in aiming too gather political capital, out of the enactment of the new tax law. By the time its benefits and advantages are thoroughly understood, which will be long before the next election, their present efforts will amount to nothing and something new will have to be sought Why not attack the school book law er tbe

THEY might accuse Mayor Carr of nepotism, but all the same he is not geing to for get a friend er relative when there are any soft places to hana out. It was noticed in the appointment of a lineman for the new electric light plant a brother-in-law of His Honor was appointed to the position, whereat some of the disappointed accuse him of nepotism and are mad.

Human Instiact.

So powerful is human instinct, that some of its suggestions become embodied social aud household customs. The people know and feel that at the begining of the spring season the system needs an alterative and a purifying touic and stimulant. Iu all parts of the country it is the custom for the housewife to dose her brood with ei^afras tea. Among the simple remedies that our ancestors employed, this decoction has continued to hold its own. The demand for a spring alterative and tonic, however, is filled more efficaciously by S. S. S., which is itself as simple as nature's remedial medicine should be. It purifies the blood, cleanses the system, and prepares tbe human machine to stand the ware aud tear of the summer months.
