THE MATERIAL FOR TREASURER. The more THE REVIEW attacks the business qualifications of Wm. Johnson, the republican candidate for treasurer, the more votes will he receive, especially iu the south part of the connty. A man who has paid out two and a half million of dollars to the farmers of that section during the last twenty years and made no enemies in all that time may be regarded as a pretty good business man.—Journal.
We have no objuctions to the Journal giving its candidate for treasurer all the long winded puffs it may choose favorable to him, yet at the same time our observation is that such men generally are not the ones demanded in handling the public funds of the county. A man who has little to commend him aside from a pleasant address, or a cordial grip of the hand, or is a successful stock dealer or speculator, is not necessarily fitted for treasurer of Montgomery county. We have heard and seen too many of these styles of candidatesmen who were very shallow in accurate businass accomplishments. Of the 100 or more county treasurers in Indiana in the past twenty years who have been defaulters, and have caused much suffering and distress by their loose business methods, all of them had generally the sole accomplishment of being clever fellows—nothing more—to their credit. When it came to a correct business system, accuracy in figures, the ability to meet each fund promptly with the cash, and the will to say "no" promptly to the numerout dead-beats who are always to be found in every county and are always seeking "accommodations" from the county treasurer, they were utterly deficient. We desire to say here emphatically that not one man out of a dozen seeking the office of county treasurer is at all fitted for the position, simply for the reason that they are lacking in necessary qualifications. The late treasurer of Warren county was a successful farmer and clever fellow, but was S60,000 short in his accounts, and in consequence is now behind prison walls The late treasurer of Tipton county know all about hogs and cattle, and was popular with his neighbors, but was short $40,000, and now takes his lodging and meals regularly in the northern penitentiary. So it has been with scores of other county treasurers. They knew no business methods, were prodigal with funds not theirs, and sowed the wind to reap an after crop of whirlwind.
If the people will not select first-class business men for important official positions then they must take the consequences for their indifference, but sensible people would not give a curse for a candidato whose only passport was that he was a clever fellow, "The south part of tho county1' can do just as it pleases in voting for county treasurer, and doubtless will, but if its judgment is based solely on the fact that a man must be a "clever fellow" to fit him for treasurer, then the Lord pity them, for nobody else will.
iiLEOT THE SENATORS.
The argument that the U. S. Senators should be elected by the people, and not by the legislatures of the different
States ,lB ow is
UNDKH
founded on good sense
and is finding advocates all over the country. The people could surely judge of the qualifications necessary for a senator fully as well and mo6t times better than a legislative body. Tho present U. S. Senate, as the actions of most of its members is observed, has intensified the feeling favoring the election of Senators by popular vote The present Senate is far from satisfactory to the people. It is composed too much of mediocre men. individuals seemingly incompetent to realize the responsibilities of their positions, or a determination to act contrary to the public desire and expectation. To this is added the grave charge of venality and corruption against a number of Senators, and which seems from investigation to be iQ a fair way of being proven. We believe better material could be selocted where there is a "free-for-all" race for the position of Senator. We have no Websters, Clays, nor Bentons now in tho U. S, Senate, and although material like them would be very acceptable now.it would seem far off, and the selection by the people would seem as the speediest way to obtain them.
the McKinley tariff, RAW sugar
was made free, but there was a tax on refined sugar. This tax enabled tho sugar trust to make ?25,000,000 per year in profits.
THE COLLEGE APPROPRIATION, A great many through the county misunderstand the amount of the appropriation ordered to be paid Wabash College, as well as the exact amount given by the county commissioners, aud since that is to be an issue in the county campaign this fall it shouid be thoroughly understood. The commissioners give §10,000 with a proviso as follows: Four thousand dollars to be paid at! once, and the remaining S6.000 in 1S9G.1 if co education were adopted by that time. The county has paid but $4,000 of the appropriation aud never will pay any more, as co-education never will be adopted in the college during the lifetime of a majority of ttie trustees of the institution. They have certain castiron, 'riveted bound opinions on the subject of co-education which all the arguments contrary brought to bear woukl not change, and in consequence the tax-payers need have no fear that they will have a cent more of the appropriation to pay. It is remarkable how cowardly, timid and obsequious many men become after they are announced as candidates. They are ready to yield to any person in order to keep within the line of popularity with the average voter, are ready to express regret for some of their former conduct and beg the pardon of the man who has a vote to bestow. Three of the candidates on the republican ticket, viz: Trout and Harding for Commissioner, and McCrea for Representative, signed the petition asking the Commissioners to make the 810,000 appropriation to Waba&h College, and in consequence many of the republicans in the county hare it in for them, and will aim to defeat them next fall. These candidates are very contrite now and wish they had not done it, but it ia too late. Here is where they show their timidity and aevility. If they were right in signing this petition a year ago they are right now. If it was right to
Tote $260,000 of the county's money a few years ago to help construct three railroads through tha county, aa the people did, is it wrong now to give $4,000 to a home educational institution? There is no politics in this question. It is a matter of right and benefit, or wrong and misappropriation. It should not, we believe, be made an issue, but it will be this year in the county, and candidates who favored it are to be roughly handled. Peterson was iJnocked out of re-nominaton for commissioner on account of it by the republicans, as was likewise Bent. Snyder for Auditor by the democrats.
A VOTE TO BE TAKEN. It would appear that the Senate has about expended all its wind on the tariff bill, and that a vote will be taken now within a few days, perhaps within a week. The bill as it came from the House of Representatives has been so greatly changed that it is not probable that the House will altogether favor it, and that some changes will still further be made. The country, however, will be rejoiced that the end is near, and that a revised tariff law will soon be in operation. It is to be hoped that tariff laws tariff discussions and the like, are settled for the nest decade at least. Thousands have predicted that just as soon as the tariff question was settled business all over the country would resume, that the depressed financial stringency would, to a great extent, cease, and that better times would be ushered in. We trust they aro correct, and that "hard times" will disappear as suddenly as they appeared.
LANDiS "ACCEPTS."
Landis, the Delphi editor, who is poBing as tho nominee of the republican party in the 10th district for Representative in Congress, has written a letter accepting the nomination. Although hundreds of republicans in his district say he was not nominated and will not \ote for him, still ho "accepts." Although accepting he is not aci.eptiblo to large numbers of his party, and if elected he may consider himself indeed lucky. The chances now for a democrat being elected in the 10th district are very bright.
SILVER was the accepted money of this country from the early days of the republic, was satisfactory, sound and current to the federalist, whig, repub lican and democrat, since or until eastern money sharks, through their Congressional representatives, were able to demonetize it. Let us get back to the old silver times and cease further legislation upon financial questions thereafter. If a silver dollar was worth 100 cent? in tho days of Jefferson and Jack son, it surely should be worth that now.
Hr.i'UUI.ICAN papers are making a kick because U. S. Pension Agent Spancer. at Indianapolis, lately discharged ten republican clerks and replaced them with democrats, We sea nothing wrong in this. Spencer alone is responsible for the management of tho offico and should hire whom ho chooses. Had a republican lately taken charge of the office how long would ten democratic clerks have remained there? Xot any longer tirno than he could have consumed in getting in republicans.
CAKNOT, the president of the French republic, was assassinated at Lyons, France, on Sunday last by an Italian anarchist. lie will doubtless soon be treated to the Chicago method in handing Anarchists.
*w"t!r
SENATOR QUAY, a kinar bee among republican political leaders, acknowledges speculating in sugar stock while the sugar question was before the Senate. He may be more frank than most of the republican politicians, but it ia questionable if he is the equal of many of them in rascality. Like most of them he had his eye. it seems, on the main chance.
SENATOR HILL made a iong speech against the income tax feature of the new proposed tariff bill. His views should not and will no? prevail. He represents a constituency that makes the most money but pays the least taxes. The east always has pleuty of money to loau, but none at all when it conn-i to paying taxes.
THE ticket nominated by the democracy of this county is composed of good material. Every man upon it ia able to attend individually to the duties of the position to which he has been nominated, and the ticket should, aud doubtless will, receive the united support of the party.
LONG editorials ridiculing the demo cratic tax law of Indiana are rarely seen in republican papers now a days. It is a matter just now that they prefer not to say anything about.
CONGRESS is in a fair way to adjourn soon, probably within three weeks.
