THE OONOEA.LED WEAPON LAW. The law relating to the carrying of concealed weapons should be made much more stringent than it is. If it were, homicides, manslaughters, and even suicides would be much less frequent than now. The murderous affray at Danville, Hendricks county, a few days ago, between an attorney and a witness is a fitting instance of the dangers to arise and crimes to be committed by the carrying of concealed weapons. Here were two old and well known citizens between whom an enmity had existed for some time. Both went armed and both it would seem had anticipated trouble between them. They at last met in deadly conflict, one possessed of a revolver, the other with a dirk. The result—a murder was committed. Borrow hangs now over the home* of both families. The head of one is in his grave, the other in his lonely cell, awaits for trial for murder, all from carrying concealed weapons. There are hundreds of similar instances in this country every year, and more will follow. Had they have taken nature's weapons, their fists, the result would have been fully as satisfactory to the public and their honor been estimated fully ai high. The man carrying concealed weapons, aside from he who by law may be so edtitled to do so, and there are rare instances where this is necessary, should be placed on the same plain as any other criminal, the forger, the thief, counterfeiter and the like, and receive a punishment of so many years in the penitentiary, at the discretion of the court. He

entitled to no more

consideration than most criminals. Generally speaking the man who carries a concealed weapon to attack some one with is a coward. He has no physical nor moral courage. The punishment of a fine for carrying concealed weapons is nothing, amounts to little and does not prevent the evil. Give them & four or six years' sentence to the penitentiary, enforce the law, and the number of homicides will be greatly diminished in this country. The mtfn of true courage rarely needs a revolver or a knife, and the coward should not under any condition be allowed to handle them.

POPULAE CHOICE FOE POST MASTEE. Experience heretofore observed in the selection of post master by popular vote has proven that it is far from satisfactory in most cities where elections for the purpose have been held. There is as much trickery and unfairness in the management of them by many of the candidates as was ever noticed at primary elestions or many county conven tions. The patrons of the post office rarely by this means secure the man of their choice. There are, we understand fourteen candidates for post master of Crawfordsville. Three-fourths of them, we understand, do not desire

any

popu­

lar election, and their wishes in the matter will probably be heeded. The remaining fourth may each think they have "a pull" on the office and each probably thinks he will secure a majority of the votes and his name recommended to Congressman Brookshire for appointment. But there is many a slip between the cup and the lip, and Brookshire when here last week was shrewd enough to sayjnolhing positive to any of the numerous individuals importuning him. Who he will recommend not one of these fourteen candidates know, and neither will they know until announced from Washington. It can easily be assumed that there will be thirteen mad fellows at the end of the contest.

AN ANCIENT CUSTOM-

The late convention of State Funeral Directors in this city was imbued with several very progressive and sensible ideas regarding the management of funerals, the preparation of bodies for i»terment and the cenduct of those most interested in such affairs. The convention by expression was opposed to the wearing of all insignas of mourning after the bodies of deceased friends or relatives had been interred, which is an advanced idea but a very sensible one we consider. Of all the ancient humbugs come down to us from former gen erations the wearing of a huge piece of black crape around a hat by a man or the carrying of a six foot black veil from the head of a woman, aimed to donate sorrow or grief over the death of friend, is the most meaningless and nonsensical. It is Bimply as advertisement to the public that the wearer thereof has lost a friend, occasionally feels gloomy over it, and would have th&pub lie know it,

DWIGGINS, the Chicago man, who wrecked lately a number of banks in Indiana by his peculiar system of business belongs, it is said, to that peculiar religious denomination kdown as "Soul Sleepers," He seems to have mesmerized the depositors in his banks inte the same belief.

EEV. HOWE AND FREE SCHOOLS. Rev. Howe of the Christian church has for some weeks past been delivering a series of lectures on Sundays somewhat anti-Catholic in tone, particularly on that part regarding the position held by the Catholic church in regard to free schools, and it is reported has re. ceived a letter or two from some over zealous Catholic, threatening him with bodily injury if he does not at once ceaBe from his talk in the matter. A representative and well meaning Catho lie will not make nor countenance any such business, but will be content to let a»y attacks on his church or his system of religion and mode of worship remain unanswered. The element that make such threats or conducts itself as did those in their attacks on the ex-priest, Rudolph, at Lafayette, must not be taken as representing the best of the Catholic profession, bet as the riff-raff, the disorderly, the unthinking. Free schools, free speech, and a free press must continue in this country so long as the present form of government of the United States exists, and any attempt to suppress any of these is the sheerest folly. When they cease to exist a monarchy will at once arise. The best element of the Catholic church here we know would not countenance for an instant any attacks or threats toward any public speaker or minister who differed from them on any religious or political points. For instance what would it particularly concern John M. Schultz, Morris Lee, John Johnson and others of the best known Catholics of this city what might be Rev. Howe's opinion of their religious views? Not anything. They would simply

consider

they, as well as he had a perfect right to differ, and as long as uninterfered with, would care little what was said.

THE OiSE OF THE CHINESE. The Geary law, so called from Congressman Geary, of California, a democrat, who championed it, was enacted ostensibly to prevent further importation of Chinese contract laborers.

As a means to this end and in view of the ease with which Chinamen are smuggled into the country, the law provided that all who were in the country before the law was enacted must become registered before the 5th of May, 1893, Each Chinaman who registered was required to have his own declaration supported by that of a Caucasian witness to the effect that he knew the Chinaman to have been in the country before the passage of the law. It was also required that each Chinaman registered should be photographed as a means of identification. Any Chinaman not BO registered is to be assumed to be a contract laborer brought into the country since the enactment «f the law and must be sent back to China, but may be impris oned at hard labor for one year previous to deportation.

Of the 100,000 Chinamen in this country not more than 5,000 have complied with the provisions of the law, and are therefore subject to deportation.

MUCH feeling has been aroused by the failure of the G. A. R. here as- in many other cities, to invite the members of various Catholic societies to take part in the exercises pertaining to Decoration Day. Why it was not done we are unable to answer. It should not be forgotten that many Catholic soldiers gavt up their lives in the defense of the Union in the war of the rebellion, that many prominent officials of the army were Catholics, that the Sisters of Charity, a Catholic organization, were to be found at the bedside of many wounded, sick and dying soldiers, during the long struggle. If this failure to invite the organization known as the "Knights" was purposely done it was assuredly in bad taste.

THK Presbyterians of the country, through th«5ir delegates to the General Assembly at Washington City, have been affording the outside barbarians the spectacle of a religious quarrel. It orthodox Presbyterianism vs. Dr. Briggs. Briggs has been disposed to be somewhat hetrodox in his opinions regarding the faith and has some followers, yet on the other hand is fiercely denounced by many of the straight laced Calvinistic members of the Presbyterian church. If they would infuse more religion and

lesB

contention into their dis­

cussions they might carry more weight with the people in their wrangle o' what Briggs believes or disbelieves.

EX-GOVERNOR CHASE has furnished another instance that the pulpit, and not politics or anvjcommercial pursuit is what he should adhere to. He was connected with a bank at Greentown, Howard county, as a director and stockholder. This bank bursted a few days ago with liabilities of $18,000, and assets not half that amount. The depositors are, of course, angry, and ChaBe comes in for a share of their maledictions. He was really only a figure head in the management of the bank but promises to be more than that before the depositors are through with him.

REPUBLICANS are opposed, of course, to the proposed income tax law. By this law it is proposed to tax every man with an income of $5,000 per annum and upwards a certain per cent, say 2% cents upon it, to be paid aB a tax. As it now is thousands of men in this country escape their just share of taxation, and the burden of it is bourn by the middle and poorer class of citizons.

ASSIGNED.

Ex-Governor Charles Foster, of Ohio, prominent in the republican party, and a treasury official under the Harrison administration, seems to have had too much business on hand and last week was compelled to make an assignment. His liabilities are placed at $800,000 and will not realize for the creditors onehalf that sum. The same reason given for the failure attributed to numerous business men in the United States for three months past is said of Foster— astringency in the money market.

WORLD'S FAIR EXPENSE. The cost of everything relating to the World's Fair up to the day of the opening, is said to lack only a few thousands of dollars of nearly $20,000,000. The daily expenses we have not seen stated, but are enormous enough no doubt. Can the daily receipts from now until November be made to reach the enor mous expense? Very doubtful.

This new remedy has beea thoronghly tested by learned physicians and fonnd far superior to any medicine yet discovered for quickly relieving all weaknesses, aches, pains and distresses arising from diseases of any part of the arinary passages. It is a great relief for the old, middle aged and children, male or female. It relieves at once retention and pain in passing water, and it is very effective in relieving prostratic troubles in the old, and for nightly incontinence of water in children, or others, caused by weakneBsof the bladder. It may be worth to many a hundred times itB cost.

This is a remedy of great value to ladies, because they are very liable to weakness and pains peculiar to their sex.
