SELFISH MILLIONAIRES. 0y? Ono of the Astor family, William, of thu second generation, we believe, of New York, died in Paris, France, last weok. The only thing to distinguish him was his wealth, which is estimated at 670.000,000. He did nothing in his life tinib for tho benefit of mankind. No donations for the indigent, no gifts for tho benefit of science, nothing for churches or benevolent organizations, are known to have been provided for in his will. His lifetime appears to have been spent in self-gratification and his departure causes no sorrow. It is remarkable that bo many of the numerous wealthy men of this country should be so selfish in their possessions, that they should do so little, when able, for future generations that are to follow. Occasionally some one blessed with plenty of this world's goods will found an institution of learning, a school of art, or make a donation for the unfortunate with which the world will always be more or less peopled, but in most cases they are not inclined that way, and since by nature's law they are unable to transport their wealth with them, leave it to relatives to ijuarrel over and scatter to the wind generally. Charity nor liberality does not seem to increase with the increase of wealth among any of the immensely wealthy of this country, and few in departing leave behind anything to call fourth the esteem and praises of the world. There arc a few grand exceptions to this. Rock afellow, the Standford oil king, has given over ?'2,000,000 to establish a 13abtist university in Chicago. Leland Standford. one of the wealthy men of California, has erected and equipped a large institution of learning in that State, at his own expense, but he is about the only wealthy Californian that ever has exhibited an unselfish disposition. What has Jay Could ever done for the benefit of mankind? What have the Vanderbilts. or many others of the numerous millionaires of the east done?
Very little, if anything for the world at large. When they have put down one dollar, they have taken up two. There would appear to be too much concentration of wealth in this country, and too little of the spirit of benevolence.
Tun republican nominating county convention occurs to-day. Tho opposition is much givon to ridiculing the qualifications of many persons nominated on tho democratic ticket, but an unprejudiced person has only to look at some of their own specimen bricks, especially some offering for representative and Sheriff to-day before their convention to satisfy himself that their like cannot bo soen any where. Wecannot recall in year« whore the democ-acy have erer presented such inferior material for the support o£ the people.
THE democratic district convention will be held at Terre Haute on tho 19th. Tho indictaions are that Mr. BrooksV.ro will be nominated again without much strife from other* for the position.
THE POLICY ELEMENT. NOTHING in later years is making tho quiet, considerate and well meaning voter in politics more warish and rebelious to party ties than the policy so often adopted by the politicians of selecting this or that candidate for office on account of his nationality, or his alligrance to some church, or for some other equal unfair reason. The time is coming when those qualifications if used in favor of an individual will work to his injury instead of his benefit. Tho majority of votors of both parties do not approve of it. For the 6ake of naming and electing their ticket, as the politi cians seem to think, it will in time aljj by men against it if a church or a nation choose to clan in politics then the voters .not so deeply interested will clan against them. A candidate to bo satisfactory to the party should be chosen for his ability, business qualifications, sobriety, honesty and fealty to the party—not because he belongs to a certain church or to a nationality that has many voters. Yet party policy too often seeks the last named qualification and pays no attention to the former. Said a well known democrat the other day, in speaking of this system so often pursued by each party, "I would rather we were defeated at every election for ten years to come than truckle|to this element that says we must support so and so because he belongs to church or to a nation that clans together when the voting time comes around," That man voices a sentiment that is growing rapidly. Voters are becoming dissatisfied with nominations made on such grounds. Both parties in this county have to died to that sentiment heretofore, They are doing it this year, and the result will be shown in November, and it will not be. we believe, such as they will in most cases desire. They will tind we believe, that the cool, disinterested, quiet voter will gauge a candidate more from his ability than his religion or nationality.
CHANGES IN THE ELECTION LAW. THE following is worthy careful study by every voter.
Many changes have been made in the law, and some of tho provisions regarding the stamping of tickets have been so amended as to make it neccessary for the voter to study the matter thoroughly before entering the booth.
Section 42 has been so altered that nyone with ordinal intelligence can understand its workings, as it restricts and specifically defines tho *ode of stamping the ticket.
The large square su'-rounding the device may be stamped to rote a straight ticket, and for this purpose only. If tho large square is stamped every name under it is voted for. If the large square is stamped a stamp else-where on the ballot makes it void. This leaves but one method of ''scratching." Tho voter who does not desire to vote a straight ticket must stamp the square in front of the name of each candidate for whom ho desires to vote. A stamp that touches a squaro must be counted on that square. A stamp that touches no square makes the ballot void. Also, a voter who folds his ballot improperly, but does not disclose the face of tho ballot. must be sent back to the booth to fold his ballot properly.
The affidavits made to swear in votes, under the provisions of the law, go into tho hands of the Grand Jury. Ponder this fact.
FOUR YEARS AND NO MORE. One of tho most beneficial laws that could be enacted and to be applied to every incumbent of a public office from President of the United States down to constable of a township, is that limiting the time to holding the position to four years and no more. It would save a vast deal of scheming for place, would insure much better service from the occupants of ollice and prevent much less competition than is now seen. Few offices are so complicated in their various branches but what any man. when of average sense, can fill them. By permitting the President to hold his office for eight years, observe the dirty scheming and low truckling now going on to insure his re-nomination. The same thing was witnessed during Grant's first term. There should be a general house cleaning and removal of the old pantry furniture every four years. It is better for the nation's health. In this state a county clerk, auditor, and recorder are eligiblejfor eight years, and these officers are always scheming for a second term. A. treasurer and a sheriff can hold office but four years. This difference is unfair, unjust, and should be changod. Make them all four years and no more. Offices are the gifts of the people and each incumbent should be treated alike, and ono man should not be given advantage oyer another.
THE action of a few delegates from this county in voting for Lamb for a delegate to the national convention has created some dissatisfaction. Ninctenths of the democracy of this county do not admiro the man at all and would favor him for nothing. Those delegates have misrepresented the sentiment of the party in this matter. Their votes secured him the plan, and cast for any other individual would have defeated Lamb.

A WESTERN MAN.
A well posted politician of New York gives it as his opinion that neither Cleveland, Hill nor any man from that State can be nominated, but tho nominee must be selected from the west. They have too many quarrels and wrangles in the party in that State to win, too many divisions, too many prominent men wanting the nominination for President. Just as soon as any prominent man is nominated in the State, he antagonizes at once some other wing of the party which is generally as anxious for his defeat as the republicans. Therefore the selection of any eastern man for the Presidency should cease for many years, until the democracy of that section show some disposition to harmonize. If Cleveland or Hill is nominated, we care not what their seeming strength may be, we doubt very much their ability to carry enough electoral votes to secure the olection. Therefore the desire for a western man to be nominated is growing, and there is a reason that it should.
IT hasjbeen learned by an investigation of the facta that forty counties in Indiana, under Republican control, have increased local taxes over a million dollars as compared with former years. Of course everybody knowB why this was done. Local burdens were made heavy with a view of creating a prejudice against the new tax law. Those in authority in theBe counties will bo held responsible for the needless burdens they have imposed on the people. It becomes a patriotic duty on the party of every officer entrusted with power of levying local taxes to make such taxes as light as possible until the finance's of tho state are in better shape. Tho present levy for state purposes will afford sufficient revenues to place tho finances of the state in good condition and materially roduco the state indebtedness.
The next legislature can make a material reduction in the state levy. The loyal people of Indiana should cheerfully respond to the call for more state revenues. Indiana has a lower state tax than any of her sistor states.
A CORRECT DEFINITION. JC.ST what tho tariff is under theMcKinley bill cannot be better defined than tho following extract taken from the resolutions and platform of the Illinois State democratic convention:
We recognize that tho tariff is a tax and that all taxation is a burden. Where it is imposed justly and fairly to meet the neccessary expenditures of an economical and prudent administration of public affairs, it will be cheerfully borne by tho people. Where leviod upon the suggestion of private greed to promote monopoly and extortion, to build up the fortunes of a few beneficiaries and favored class at the expense of tho general welfare, it is leavened with injustice and oppression and is a a burden intolerable to free and inconsistent with every principle of sound government. The republican party has sought to fasten an iniquitous and oppressive system of taxation upon the American people. The cffect of its legislation on this subject it is to fetter trade and commerce, thoso swift agencies of civilization, and discourage and disarrange every element of industry to foster iujudious discrimination and to demoralize the public confidence.
IF a protective tariff does not add to the cost of imported goods, thus enabling our manufacturers to charge higher for their goods by reason of the handicapped competion, how|does tcoine that our manufacturers can and do contribute millions of dollars to protection campaign funds?
THE McKinley bill offers a handsome premium upon smuggling. Ton thousand miles of seacoast and four thousand miles of land frontier. Uncle Sam is a pretty big fellow but ho nor his officers can guard every point at once. Tho arorasjo profits of smuggling is not less than 00 per cent. •'HOME market"! Well, the high taxers have been telling the farmers that the protective tariff was to insure a ••homo market"—and now reciprocity (limited free trade) is being played by g. o. p. For what is reciprocity? To open up foreign markets! Of such is the consistency of the blocks-of-five party.
THE THIRD PARTY HERE. THE third party here, supposed generally to be in the interest of the farmers, have made a bad start in the political field in this county. The first move was to fuse with the Prohibitionists. Very many of the farmers take no stock in the Probhibition question, consider it impractical, foolish and nonsensical. Instead of placing farmers at the head of their meeting Ballard and Elter. prohibs., ran the thing. Ballard cannot manago anything of a political nature, and in all the years he has been at the head ot the prohibition party has never been able to increase the membership in the least. If the Alliance people expect to do anything this year they should rid themselves of all thor old barnacles at once, and strictly run their own boat, regardless of any of the other parties.
GRANT'S MONUMENT.
THE ceremonies incidont^to the laying of tho corner stone of the monument to Gen. Grant took place on Wednesday last. The monument is to be erocted on a spot of ground known as ''Riverside Park," overlooking the Hudson river. It will be 150 feet in height and will cost 500,000.
