ONE PER CENT. DEDUCTION. AUGUST 25, IS!''2. MR. EDITOR:

From compulsory work I was unable to attend regularly at the teachers institute held in Crawfordsville last week. I understand, however, that the county school board, which is composed of the for every day's absencelfrom flii° li&fttute. 1 per cent. of wages would be deducted from the salary of tbe teacher at the close of the term. With many teachers this would take 85, 610 and 815 f.'om their wages and with those of us who aro poor this is a decided hardshipWhile I with many others consider the "Institute" business a farce, a chestnut, a humbug, I am willing to attend at all times when convenient, yet I do rot consider it honorable, fair nor equity, to fine a teacher for not doing so when other mattors of as equal importance demand his or her attention, and 1 desire to ask it trustees can legally iriforce this rule. A TEACHER.

We believe it is the custom with all trustees to enter into a contract at the opening of the term, i'i which it is stipulated what wages are to be paid, the number of days to bo employed, etc., with all their teachers. Now unless the "one per cent." is included in the contract it is questionable if trustees can inforco it. and if even then is included, wo do not believe good law would say that the trustees could exact it from the teacher's wages. The providence of a teacher is to teach school and bo paid for his services— not to attend school and be lined on failure to do so. If at the end of the school session your trustee insists'on deducting the" one per cent." it may be well both for yourself and others like situated, to make a test case of the matter before the courts and set it at rest permanently. The mere dic-

turn of a trustee or school official is law unless he has the law with him.

TIN PLATE "INDUSTRY." Among the many pet schemes of the republicans for upholding the present iniquitous tariff law, tho enacting of the tin plate "industry,'' and represented to bo strictly home erown in every respcct, is tho biggest fraud of all. Investigations into the alleged tin plate business show everything about it to bo foreign. Tho iron sheets on which tho tin is rolled or dipped is foreign make, tho tin itself is imported and most of the workmen employed in its manufacture are foreigners. Tho tin turned out in most of these alleged home manufactures is generally of an inferior quality. It is right and proper to give home manufac tures preference all tho time, qual. ity and price being considered, but why such deception by corrupt, lying politicians? Tho truth should bo told even if it injures protected interests. Tho tin plate industry, as it is termod, with all tho protection given it, cannot furnish as good and cheap articlo of tin as that manufactured abroad.

00NOENTRATION Of WEALTH. Can you maintain a republican form of government in a dense population where wealth is rapidly accumulating in the hands of the tew as in this country? A good many people doubt it. Wealth breeds an aristocracy that is at war, and has no sympathy with, democratic republicanism.

In spite of the rapid increase in the number of millionaires in the United States in recent years, the popular notion is that wealth is yet very much more evenly distiibuted in this country than in England. Mr. Thomas G. Shearman, the well-known New York statician, was engaged for some time in collecting facts to show as precisely as possible the proportion of the country held by a few rich men and families, and he found a greater concentration of wealth hero than in any other country. The results of his investigation were published last year, from which the following facts are taken. Mr. Shearman makes the following enumeration of owners of more than §20,000,000 each: 8150,000,000: J. J. Astor, Trinity church.

S100,000,000: C. Vanderbilt, W. Iv. Vanderbilt, Jay Gould, Loland Stanford, J. D. Rockefeller. 870,000,000: Estate of A. Packer. 860,000,000: John I. Blair, estate of Chas. Crocker. $50,000,000: William Astor, W. W. Astor, Russell Sage, E. A. Stevens, estate of Moses Taylor, estate of Brown & Ives. 840,000,000: P. D. Armour, F. L. Ames, William Rockefeller, H. M. Flagler, Powers & Weightman, estate of P. Goelct. 835,000,000: C. P. Huntington, D. O. Mills, estate of T. A. Scott, J. W. Garrett. 830,000,000: G. B. Roberts, Charles Pratt, Ross Winans, E. B. Cox, Claus Speckels, A. Belmont, R. J. Livingston, Fred Weyerhauser,, Mrs. Mark Hopkins,

Mrs. Hetty Green, estate of S. V. Harkness. i?. W. Coleman, I. M. Singer. 825,000,000: A. J. Drexel, J. S. Morgan, J. P. Morgan, Marshall Field, David Dows. J. G. Fair, E. T. Gerry, estates of Governor Fairbanks, A. T. Stewart, A. Shermerhorn.

S22,500,0c0: O. H. Payne, estate of F. A. Drexel, I. V.Williamson, W. F.Weld. 820.000,000: F. W. Vanderbilt, Theo. Ilavemeyor. II. O. Havemeyer, W. G. Warden, W. P. Thompson, Mrs. Sclienley, J. B. Haggin, H. A. Hutchins, estate of W. Sloane, E. S. Higgins, C, Tower. Wm. Thaw. Dr. Hostetter, Win. Sharon. Peter Donohue.

These seventy names represent an aggregate wealth of 82,700,000,000, an average of more than 837,500,000 each.

Mr. Shearman's conclusion is that 25,000 persons nvn one-half the wealth of the United States and that the whole wealth of the country is practically owned by 250,000 persons, or one in sixty of the adult male population: and he predicts, From ine icip'.-t tration of wealth, that under present conditions 50,000 persons will practically own all 'the wealth of the country in thirty years—or less than one in 500 of the adult male population.

The question is a pertinent one:— Whither are the American people drift-

SECRET ORDERS.

It would seem that the secret and social order business in this country is being greatly overdone, and how many members of these orders can attend regularly, pay dues, and at the same time attend to their regular business pursuits is a puzzle to many. Some men belong to as many as three secret organizations. Why. it is impossible to tell, as one is enough with most persons. In fact there is much foolishness in the wholo thing. What citizen of standing has any trouble in netting along in the world without attaching himself to some secret oath-bound organization?

Is there not a vast amount of time and money squandered in them, which might otherwise be employed to better advantage? In all the pomp of knodding plumes and gold laced regalia what particular permanency or glory is there in it? It soon becomes stale and commonplace, and many members drop out, although their time and money is gone. The younger members aro charmed for a time and become enthusiastic in the work, but soon tiro and give place to newer ones. A man's time and money is generally his own to do with them as he desires, and a vast amount of it is being thrown away just now in secret organizations.

LEFT to a decision of the people there is little question but what they would favor tho opening of the World's Fair on Sunday. If properly managed, as it will be, there can result no moro harm to tho moral susceptabilities of those attending the Fair on Sunday than there would bo in listening toa discourse from Talmage, Sam Jbnes or any other sensational preacher, while there would bo much more practical instruction. Tho people will liavo much less faith in those superlatively pious people, who would closc an institution ot practical use to tho whole people on Sunday on tho plea that it is wicked and unchristian, whilo thousands of saloons and places of evil resort are running in full blast to at tract the people to them.

PRESIDENT HARRISON has not yet ac cepted the Minneapolisnomination. Ho probably considers it not necessary to be in a hurry about such an empty honor

0ITY FINANCES.

The management of this city baa always been under the control of republicans. Whatever of good or bad may have resulted they receive the pra te or disapproval for it. There is no question that for eighteen months past the financial management of the city has been in bad hands'and from it a debt has arisen which it will require years to extinguish. The electric light business has floored them, has become a matter of vital importance to the tax-payers, and which from mismanagement will require good financial work hereafter to prevent increase of debt. It formerly was a matter of boast that the city had no debt and tkxes were low. It can bo said no longer. We used to frequently hear it said that so many thousands of dollars were in the city treasury, no bonds to be paid, and no increase in taxation. Do you hear it now? A member of the city council said laBt week, that the city would in a short time be compelled to issue bonds and borrow money. It resulted, he said, through the condition of the electric light plant. It was to cost originally about $30,000, but already with the additions of new machinery had cost over 800,000, and more will follow. Our light is a great luxury but it is costing much nevertheless. It may be a great thine and doubtless is, yet pay day always comes. It may be time to call a halt to the amateurs who are running tho financial portion of the city's business.

They have, no doubt, got into deep water. and are as wreckless as children with the tax-payers money. Retrenchment should now set in. Not another dollar should be expended except for matters absolutely necessary.

WANT MOKE OF THE KIND. It is a pity that the race of men tho Hoiman style in Congress is so scarce. It is to be regretted that the "watch dogs of the treasury" is of a breed that is so rare. They have been badly needed in Congress for thirty years. Consider for a moment the vast amount of foolish appropriations that have been made within that time, the mountainous sums of money that have been squandered, and the vast amount of extravagance in Congress that has reigned within that time, and say that men of the Hoiman stripe are not needed Good financeering would have found this country out of debt by this time, nearly thirty years since the war, yet it is doubtful considering the extravagant methods that continually prevail if the books will be clear in thirty years more. Extravagance prevails in all departments of the government. Nonsensial appropriations are'made for this or that thing, and money used as free a water. Hoiman has continually fought this, and in the years passed has saved the government many millions of dollars by the determined stand he has assumed. He

of

than any fifty Congressmen sent to Washington City from Indiana within that time. The fact that he is now serving his fourteenth term in Congress proves that his constituents appreciate his work, whether other people do or not.

ASSIST IN THIS OBJECT. It is proposed to raise 830,000 in behalf of Wabash college, much of which sum it is hoped will be donated here. This sum with a like amount which is to be donated by Mr. Simon Yandes, of Indianapolis, will be used in the establishment of two additional chairs of history and elocution, and to place the institution on still higher ground of usefulness. Donations should be given freely for the purpose. Not counting the moral influences which accrue to the community from the location of Wabash college here it is of wonderful advantage to us in a pecuniary sense. The college and those connected with it spend from 875,000 to 8100,000 per year

Crawfordsville. Jt is a great advantage in many ways tous. It attracts yearly to us hundreds of strangers. It 'as given us a splendid reputation ibroad as a literary center and the home of men eminent in letters. Morally its influence is far reaching and pormanent. 10 very property holder here is interested in the upholding of Wabash college. The committee having in charge the matter of raising this money should everywhere be received cordially, and tho amounts given for tho purpose be donated freely.

THE terrible fate which overcame young Elbert Scott last week by jumping upon a railway train whilo it was in motion and falling under tho wheels, should bo a solemn warning to everyone of tho danger so often accompanying such an undertaking, yet with thousands it is heedless in its warning, and we read every week of just such tragic a (Tan's. Railroad men themselves mi dertako this practico daily, often successful and often not. If. after the constant warning, men will not hood it then tho misfortune and sorrow which so often follow should not rest with those more timid and cautious.

BLAINE intends doing somo stump speaking for the republican mirty this year. Distastoful as it is toliim, no doubt, he is compelled to do this to keep up his Btanding with tho party. It is a splendid illustration of crow eating, but an easy thing for most republicans to do.
