THE TAX LAW.

No law passed by a democratic legislature has been more severely criticised and condemed by republican speakers and ftewspapers than the present tax law of Indiana, yet at the same time a fairer one could cot be enacted or'one more just in its aim to equalize taxes aDd make the burdens of taxation fall equally upon all classes of the people. The taxpayers upon investigation find this to be the truth in spite of all misrepresentation by republican newspapers seeking political capital. Below we furnish a few specimens of the working of the new law:

J3S

1891.

For school purposes, paid.... .$69,319.00 For school purposes received.. G2.34G.00

8 6.973.00

Marion county received in 1891, the sum of §6,973.00 more for school purposes than was paid in by her tax payers, the other counties furnishing the difference.

MONTGOMERY COUNTY TAX IN 1891. For school purposes, paid $16,345.01 For school purposes received.. 12,524.19

3,821.82

This county received $3,821.19 less for sceool purposes than was paid by her citizenB, in the apportionment made for all counties of the State.

MARION COUNTY TAX IN 1892.

For school purposes paid 8137,940.12 For school purposes received. 77,399.49

$60,540.63

MONTGOMERY COUNTY TAX IN 1892. For school purposes, paid $18,3S0.G4 For school purposes, received. 19,233.39

853.25

Heretofore the fund for school purposes for large corporations of the State owing to the inequalities of the old tax law have-been paid by other counties of the State. Indianapolis, for instance, has paid the expenses of running her schools to a large extent by money from smaller populated counties. This can not be said hereafter, as the new law compels her citizens to pay her expenses for running her schools. By the new law Montgomery county receives more from the school fund than she paid in— the first time such a thing has occurred in years. In 1891 in this county the amount of school fund per head was $1.32 in 1892 the amount per head is $1.67, being 35 cents more per head this year than last. Another thing is true. Every farmer in this county pays less taxes on the same amount of land under the new law than ho did under the old. Our neighbor of tho Journal which with other papers of its party has aimed to ridicule tho new tax law should make some thorough investigations regarding it and its operation, and his opinion might undergo a decided change in its favor. It is a good law and is here to stay.

CHEADLE, ex-member of Congress from the 9th district, an individual of considerable ability as well as independence, has foolishly allowed the hangers-on of the administration in the district to scare him off from a race for tho nomination and withdrew last week. He would probably have been nominated in spite of the various political rings to prevent it," and has undoubtedly missed a good opportunity for the position which may not come again.

THE 00HTE8T DEEPENSThe contest between the anti-Harri-son crowd of politicians lead by Piatt, Quay, Dudley, et al., and those favoring the re-nomination of the President, increases in interest as the time draws nigh to make the selection. The clans are gathering at Minneapolis aad by next Wednesday probably we will know who is who. It ts very hard to defeat any President for second re-nomination with all the immense power behind him of the administration to assist him Notwithstanding this fact the leaders now opposing Harrison are the strong est, most energetic, most influential of the party. They are the men who mould sentiment, platforms, and carry on the aggressive portion of the campaign. Piatt, of New York, Quay, of Pennsylvania, Clarkson of Iowa, Dudley, of Indiana, Farwell, of Illinois, are 'giants in a political warfare, and all of them are anxious to defeat Harrison for renomination. The effect of their woik will be seen now 6oon. The Harrison wing will be under the command of John C. New who has come all the way from England to lead them. Steph. Elkins, said to be the ablest politician of the republican party now living, and at this time holding a government office, will, of course, be on the side of the adminis tration. The anti-administration crowd are Beemingly for Blaine and would be no doubt if he were a candidate or would consent to be. We don't believe that under any circumstances he will be. The antis we think will concentrate on John Sherman, of Ohio, nnd if Harrison is not nominated on the first ballot his chances will at once fade away. Sherman is just as strong with his party as Harrison, Blaine or any republican living, and would poll just as many votes. The enemies of Harrison know thiB fully, and have their plans well laid. There will, of course, be many foolish rumors between now and the time the nomination is made, but we believe if it is not Harrison it will be,Sherman, and the final result will be awaited with much interest.

OPPOSED TO SUNDAY 0PEMJT&. Tho general conference of the Methodist church at Omaha took up the question of the closing of the World's Fair on Sunday. It favors the closing, of course, and adds that congress make no appropriation for the fair unless with the understanding that it be closed on that day. It is well that the majority of the people of this country are not so straight laced, so pious, so orthodox, so narrow minded as this conference combination is at Omaha. If it were there would probably be no exposition at all neither of Sunday nor week day. It is well that people are yearly becoming more liberal in their views regarding the well fare of the human race, and that Blue Laws, Salem Witchcraft, etc., cannot exist in this enlightened time. That is the age better suited for the enforcement of the views of those constituting the conference. That assembly will do well to remember that whether any Methodists attend the World's Fair or not, it will likely be opened on Sunday, and with the omission on that day of music and machinery working. People can see and be benefitted by attending the exposition, and will commit no wrong in the sight of Gob by so doing.

THE SEASON.

Thoss democrats who do not join in the hue and cry for Cleveland, should be thoroughly understood, as their reasons for opposition- to him are as sound as those "who favor him. They consider him politically as reliable as any democrat in the party, that his administration was in every way creditable to himself and the country, and that on many questions of state ho is in advance of his party. Why he is opposed b.v large numbers of tho»party is because they do not believe him available, that the result in November next will be the same as four years ago—defeat of the party they do sincerely believe, however, that a ticket with any sound, well-known democrat upon it from the west for president, with a New York man for vice-president will win, but different from this it will be defeated. Tho people cannot be educated any more thoroughly on tariff matters in '92, than they were in '88, and the democrats cannot labor any more energetically this campaign than that of four years ago, yet if we have the same ticket what is there to prevent the same result.

THE HAEEIS0N MEN.

Reports regarding the candidacy of Blaine for president at the Minneapolis convention are very conflicting. In the meantime it is said tho Harrison men are determined now that no one shall take the nomination from the president without a fight. They say that Mr. Blaine's resignation from the cabinet at this time or even an open and direct declaration from him that he would accept the nomination would not influence Mr. Harrison's course, and that the only way Mr. Blaine can get the nomination will be by riding ovorl*Mr. Harrison after a hot fight. They say, speaking for the President, that if Mr. Blaine had said several months ago that he would accept the nomination Mr. Harrison would have written a letter declaring that he (Harrison) would not accept a re-nomi-nation.

HICKS, the weather prophet, did very well regarding the weather prognostications for May. We are promised considerable rough weather for Juno.

JUDGE D. P. BALDWIN, who was elected attorney general on the republican ticket in 1880, contributed a valuable paper to the Indianapolis Sentinel, Monday, in which he compares national progress under a high and low tariff. The following is the concluding paragraph:

Finally, a great moral question comes in. Does prosperity—$67,000,000,000 of it—justify robbery? If so, Jay Gould is, as his soft shelled pastor claimed a few weefcs ago, "the loveliest of men." The great masses of our poor are so by reason of their honesty. Rich scoundrels usually die in their beds. The real question is, "Who owns our great wealth?" No man ever yet earned $1,000,000, OOOyet 250,000 men own $40,000,000,000 in the United States. There must be something inexpressibly wrong in an industrial system that in thirty-one years has created 5,000,000 tramps and consolidated 80 per cent, of our vast national wealth in 250,000 hands. No wonder the high tariff advocates are doing their best to shoulder this monstrous fact upon coal oil, railroads and speculation in city real estate.

ANTI-SILVEB PLANK.

It is quite probable that in the Chicago platform of the democracy one anti-silver free coinage plank will be constructed if Cleveland is to 6tand upon it. It is correct, we believe, that it should. Good financeering will say that our present monitary system shall remain as it is. Nevada and Colorado and some other western states may strongly oppose this, and may threaten that their entire vote will in November eo elsewhere, but there are other and many times larger interests to be looked after than theirs, and if they cannot go with the majority "f the party on this question they will have to seek other company. Reflection upon the part of the best man of the party is against ab solute free coinage of silver, and an expression to that effeci wo believe will be clearly and unequivocably set forth the platform.

THERE does not seem to exist any where near as much uncertainty as to whom the nomination for President will go to at Chicago by the democracy as to who will be nominated by the republicans at Minneapolis. Cleveland we think will again be nominated, but whether Harrison will be is questionable. There are many big- gun republicans who want to throw Harrison, and from now on the contest

SAM SMALL lately stated that Sim Coy, the ex-democraiic politician, but now understood to belong to the g. o. p., was organizing the liquor dealers in the State in the interest of the Harrison crowd for the next election. Nothing improbable in that, as Small has accurate sources from which to draw his information. Coy has been promised probably something big in the way of an office if Bennv is re-elected.

THE American people will soon get tired of the phrase "Reform of the Tariff," and after a few years more will desire the tariff done away with altogether. If every tub cannot sit on its own bottom let it go to pieces. Protect nothing, and lot the race be free to all.
