A3 TO STATE FINANCES.'
The Journal makes a most malignant and unjustifiable attack on Governor Matthews in connection with his remarks on State finances in his address before the#itate convention. Governor Matthews slated the simple truth in that speech. The larger portion of the State debt was created by the republicans and their predecessors, the whigs. When Governor Hendricks came into office, in 167:, the State debt was c'l,8i0,S30..'?7. He was the first democratic governor after the war. The figures given by the auditor for that year are less than that amount, but the Journal knows, or ought to know, that the audi tor's tigures did not include 6712,852.IS of old internal improvement bonds which were, in fact, paid by Governors
Williams, Porter and Hendricks. Gov ernor Baker referred to this omission iu his message of Jan. 10, 1S7H, and said they should have been included. There wns no increase of debt whatever during the administrations of Governors Hendricks and "Williams. When Mr Porter was inaugurated the debt stood at 64,876,( 0S.31.
In Porter's administration the contracting for necessary public buildings was begun, and these were all completed and paid for by democrats. The party has no apology to make for this work. On the contrary, it points to these buildings as the full value of all tho debt it created, and to their use' to the State as full compensation for overy cent of interest that has been paid on that debt. Look at the list:
Insane hospital at Evansville. Insane hospital at Richmond. Insane hospital at Logansport. Insane hospital for women at Indianapolis.
Soldiers' and sailors' orphans' home at Knightstown. School for feeble minded children at Ft. Wayne.
New building at institute for the blind. Now building at institute for the deaf and dumb
New buildings at Purdue university. New buildings at State university. Furnishing anil equipping State house (6707,500).
State soldiers' and sailors' monument. No question has ever been made as to the strict honesty and economy with which all this work was done. No question has ever been raised as to its necessity.—State Sentinel.
Oxr. Stephen Elkins. a noted republican corruptionist, says: "General Harrison is the American statesman living With a stub of a pencil two long he can write State papers that are models of strength, clearness of expression and literary excellence. He talks as well as he writes."
ablest to-day. inches
Elkins is the only man heretofore accusing Harrison of bein? a statesman. Here in Indiana whero he is known he is considered simply a politician of good luck, nothing more, and it is remarkable that if a statesman how many of tho leading lights of tho republican party such as Qua}-, Clarkson and others, were so anxious to prevent his renomination at Minneapolis. Tho only persons landing him as a statesman are those expecting political advancement by or through him.
HON. JIM JOHNSTON has, it seems, recovered from the "sourness" which he exhibited at tho late republican district convention and is to assist Faris, the republican nominee for Representative, in opening the campaign in Parke county. Doing this Faris has probably agreed not to be in Johnston's way for the race two years hence. This would probably be the only thing that could cause JohnBton to recover from the disability which he exhibited at the convention,
SPECULATION IN GOLD. We read almost daily that tho gold in the U. S. Treasury in reserve is only S55.0C0.000 or ?5i!,OOO.UOO, or some tigurcp similar to these. The amount ot gold in the U. S. Treasury would seem to be held to make a showing or exhibit as much as anything else. hen the goid lessened in amount below £100,000,000
they draw. That was all there was in it. It this government was now entirely out of gold and thero was no reserve, pe»ple would live and eat three meals a day. It is a matter of great regret that the money power in this country has become so strong and dictatorial within the past thirty years in this country. Republican legislation assisted in ereitinc this during the wr The government needed money to prosecute the war and turned to the money loaners as a supplicant The money sharks were protected equally with the masses yet demanded big interest for their money and its exemption from taxation, It imply meant that because they were so fortunate as to possess money they were ntitled to more consideration than other classes of the people, and tho government so treated them. There must be sooner or later a cessation of this yi-.-lding to wealth, or we will soon drift into the cendition of the people of Ireland. A tenth of the population wiil soon own the country. The amount of wealth concentrated into the hands of a few in this country is already astonishing. If, at the suggestion of Wall street, this or that financial movement must be made, where will it end? The
Secretary should issue no more bonds at the suggestion of a money clique, come what will. Thero is certainly some other way out of a financial muddle than to be borrowing continually of those who have money to loan, and whose sole business is to speculate olT of the country's necessities.
PULLMAN INVESTIGATIONS. A committee has been in session at Pullman. 111., for some days past investigating the mode and manner of doing business by the Pullman car company with the men and women laboring for that corporation. The testimony brought out in many instances is start ling. Reductions of wages were made as often as three times in a year. While wages were reduced the rent of houses rented by the company to tho men never were lowered at all. In evidence it was brought out that in neighboring suburban towns rents vvere from 25 to 30 per cent, lower than at Pullman. Many employees who had recoived from £1.50 to 61.75 per day had their wages reduced down to 75 cents and 63,K cents per day, Another case was brought out where tho company forced a female employee whose father had died owing them for rent, to have so much of her wages deducted monthly from her salary to pay the rent remaining due. There were many other instances of downright tyranny and petty exactions bv the Pullman company toward its employees that is most surprising and contemptible. Mind you this is tho work of a corporation that pays dividends of S per cent, per annum upon its stock. Is it any wonder that the employees strike for higher wages? Is it any wonder that a corporation can pay dividends after paying starvation wages? If there are many such companies as the Pullman in existeuce, Lord help the men who earn their daily bread at such places. One can have a satisfactory explanation why disgust, dissatisfaction and even anarchy itself should exist in this country by reading the testimony of men before this committee regarding the treatment received at the hands of the Pullman company.
THE Journal believes that the solution of Hie troublesome question is in the entire abolition of separate schools —Journal.
That may be the Journal's opinion, but it is not that of nine-tenths of the people of this city. The mixing of tho two classee is not a popular move now nor never wi 1 be. Although philanthropists may desiro it. the sensible thinking poople of both races do not, Keep them separate as now, hire competent colored teachers to teach colored children and tho difficulty will be overcome. It is best for all that this plan be adopted and made permanent.
THE most welcome intelligence that wo hoar now is that further discussion of any consequence on the tariff is through for some years to come. If ever any public question became tiresome and nauseating it is certrioly tho tariff. Tho people and the politicians have had enough of it for a long time and will welcome any new political agitation in preference to it.
JOINT REPRESENTATIVE, Hon. D. E. Williamson, of Grooncastle, was on Saturday last nominated at the joint democratic convention for the office of Representative for Clay, Putnam and Montgomery counties. The nominee is known as an old and experienced lawyer, a politician of ability, and a citizen of excellent standing. He should and doubtless will be elected.
A GRAND EE00RD-
Hon. \V. S. Holman, or the 4th Congressional district, was last weoi. again re-nomiuated for Congress, this being, we believe, the sixteenth tune he has thus beeL :omplimentPd by the democracy of his district. He h«.
the Secretary of the Treasury was urged a Congressman has been pure and unto issue bonds to tho amount of §."0,000,- sullied. In the great miasma of cor000 and did so. It was a scheme simply ruption in politics and governmental urged by money sharks by which they management that has existed more or could speculate and make money olT less in this country for thirty \eais government securities. The sharks at past, no charges of corruption, briber} onee produced the gold, bought the bouds and hold them for the interest
served
longer as a Representative than auy other man now living, and his record as
and fraud could be laid at the dour of llolmau. He has been a vigorous opponent of hundreds of corrupt schemes during his long career as Congressman, and no Congressman, living or dead, from Indiana, has been of more benetit to tho country iu this particular respect that he opposed and prevented many raids upon the treasury and saved to the country millions of dollars, lie has been termed by many whose anger he incurred by smashing their schemes for robbery of the government the ''cheese-paring statesman." A such attempts at ridicule, irony and sarcasm aimed at him have fallen harmlessly to the ground. We need more "cheeseparing statesmen." Wo want more 'watch dogs of the treasury," and it is to fre hoped that. thi race of such men will not become extinct in Congress, Indiana will revere lloltnan for his use fulness in the past, and the democracy Of the 1th district can do no mure !itt'r.g work than to continue to Hokuan to Congress so long as he ably fills the position as Representative
NO FUSION.
Democrats who favor a union with populists now or at any time hereafter are of a time-serving class that should not have any attention whatever. There would be just as much reason in uniting with prohibitionists. A. P. A. or any of the tom-tit organizations that arise during every political campaign, and die soon after. Democratic principles are for the people and of the people, and it is nonsensical to go over into some new tingled party to aim to bring about something impracticable, or if. not on that line something that can be brought around in time by remaining with the old reliable organization. It matters not that some bad men may be at the helm, that unwise legislation may some times be enacted, the principles of the democratic party must exist if the country is to exist. So long as we have a free government, a government of the people, so long will the democratic party be a live, conservative political organization. Populists, prohibitionists with a big or a little p, are but temporary affairs, the work in most instances of disappointed and malicious ofheo seekers, and in no instance should the democracy fuse with them. Go down in honorable defeat at any time rather than lay aside life principles in political matters.
UN D0IN g'REPUBLLOAiT CORRUPTION. It is an enormous undertaking to undo the corrupt work of republican legislation for thirty years past, but the new tariff law is a great step in the right direction and will be of vast benefit hereafter. The only complaint is that not enough has been done with the opportunities presented, but democrats had not counted on tho corrupt schemings of Gorman, Brice and a few others of the party. Had it not have been for these men we would have obtained all we aske in the way of tariff reform, and the party would have been that much farther advanced in 6entiment ffith the people. Tho majority of the voters of this country are with the democracy in their desire for tariff reform and will not desort us because wo have failed in doing all that was promised or expected. The work of a few corrupted scoundrels can bo but temporary,-
Deafness Cannot he Cured,
By local applications as they cannot rcach the diseased portion of the oar. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inilamed coidition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inilamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is the result, and unless the inilamation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever nin" cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inilamed condition of the mucous surfaces.
AVewiilgive One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness caused by catarrh that cannot he cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars: free. f. J. CHENEY A Co., Toledo, O. Cirsoid by all druggists, 75c.'
