UTTERANCES OF A CRANK. A great many hereabouts know Rev. Win. Hickman, the Methodist minister, in tact we believe ho was born and reared in this county. lie has charge ov\ of a church, we believe, at lorro llaute. By some he is considered very eccentric in his sermons and writings- by others as a very bold and talented minister: and still by others as a crank r.r.d fanatic. His utterances th« other day on amalgamation stamp him aiU. most, people as belonging to the latter class. He presented a long :.rray of arguments before a literary club of that city in favor of solving the negro problem in the so^th by amalgamation of tho two races, the abrogation of laws prohibiting miscegenation and the intermarriage of the two raei s. He laid down, as a fundamental principle, this: "A mixed race in competition with a pure race, other conditions being equal, will bo the intellectual and physical superiors."
May be Bro. Hickma: used the above reasons simply to be ••eccentric," but int.st people may consider him a damphool. '1 hese may be his ideas, his a one, for few white people will agree with him for one instant. He may consider it all right to take some colored Sambo to his busom.or allow some colored people to mix with his as it is a matter of taste solely, but it may safely be alleged that no" a twentieth part of his congregation believes in such notions or would tolerate i. all. By the way, would it not be a wise idea for Brother Hickman to tell the public why he resigned the presidency of the negro college at Atlanta, Ga., two years ago. The impression around here is that he withdrew from tho institution because neither he nor his family desired the society of so runny negroes that they were compelled to tolerate. It may ave been somewhat "eccentric" on his part that he got worried over seeing so many negp es, but nevertheless it would be somewhat natural.
KNOWN BY ITS WORKS. The State legislature adjourned this week. By its works it must hereafter bs known. It was known as a republican political legislature, having a majority for its party of about 80, and had matters its own way from commencement till close. Its immense majority with every man having an ax to grind, rendered most of its work useless so far as the public was concerned. What measures it passed and became laws were ol minor importance in most instances. It came to the State capitol in .January swelled with the idea of its vast importance, and with the determination to revolutionize matters in general throughout the State, and effectually as possible destroy anything whatever that might bo of advantage to the opposite political party. Itadjourned this week disappointing its friends and the people at its attempts at reform, the little benefit it did, and creat ing at its departure a general disgust and contempt for it. Very few laws of lasting benefit were enacted. No great reforms such as the election law, the assessment law, tho school book law, can adorn the pages of the "Acts of the General Assembly of 1895." Most of the legislation could be denominated petty work. It failed to benefit its party, and failed also to satisfy the people. It has been clearly demonstrated that any party in the legislature with a big majority cannot be expected to do little else than fritter valuable time away.
THE DRUG CLAUSE.
The clause in tho Nicholson temperance law which prohibits drug stores from selling liquor in a less quantity than a quart at a time, unless by order of a physician's prescription, is correct. There are drug stores in Crawfordsville and in hundreds of cities and towns in Indiana that for years have done a quiet retail liquor selling business in fact aside from this kiad of trade their business would amount to very small proportions. They have assisted in making drunkards and producing poverty and want every bit as much as many of the saloons. Lot them be regulated by law as well as the saloons. Let them be fined for infractions of tho law as well as the man standing behind a bar and retailing ardent spirits. They are entitled to no more respect. One is as good as the other.
Senatou John L. Wilson, of the State of Washington, and a native of Crawfordsville, was visiting friends here last week. He began on his term the 4th of this month, and continues in office six years. Whatever there is particularly brilliant in tho Senator is yet to be developed. He seems, however, to be a victim of good luck, so far as securing offices is concerned.

TOOL OF THE LOBBIES. This last republican legislature seems to have been bound soul and body to
have become laws. ever, were on hand and prevented it iu almost every case where it was inimical to their interests. A bill '.vas introduced e.irly in the session to regulate the Building and Loan business to the extent that -.nicer? of such associations should not rob stockholders to the extent it is alleged they have been do for some years past. But the lobby its --inHuer.ee" downed the L.ili after somo vigorous wort\,••• A bill to pay countv other- bv s^hir^ only, and not fees, was introducei! and passed the
House, but the Semite greatly altered it in the interest »f olVicor," aiut it was boldly at-serted by leading republicans of the House, tl.at many Senators had been "seen" by the county officers' lobby and the hill winch ".was in the interest of the people, was lost. So much for the work of tiie lobby. The Nicholson bill while far from perfect, can assuredly be of no disadvantage to a majority of the people, yet a lobby bad it greatly moditied. Throne 11 conniving and secret means, known only Jp the v-nal law makers and Uie paid agents of those determined to defeat it. it came very near being lost So with many other bills introduced, a paid lobby came near defeating them, and did in many instances. It should be remembered in in reviewing the work of this legislature that it was strictly republican. so far as the making and un-mak-ing of laws wat concerned, am! that it had 80 majority or joint ballot By its works shall you know it.
THE NEW SILVER PARTY. Next year at the opening of the campaign a new party, known as the Silver party, will be on hand to contend for the suprt macy against tho democratic and republican. The money question will undoubtedly be a leading issue. The American Bimetallic League, in session at Washington City last week, issuod the following- manifesto:
After declaring against a singlo gold standard, and iu favor of the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 1G to 1, the manifesto says: "We hold 1 hat the power to control and regulate a paper currency is inseparable from tho power to coin money and hence that all currency intended to circulate as money should bo issued and its volume controlled by thegeneral Government only, and should be legal tender. are unalterably opposed to the issue by the United States of interestbearing bonds in time of peace and demand the payment of all coin obligations of the United States as provided by existing laws, in either gold or silver coin, at the option of tho Government and not at the option of the creditor. .''On ihese ihsuts we appeal from the dictation of the money power to the intelligence and patriotism of the American people.''
DROP THE WORK.
Gov. Matthews very sensibly vetoed tho measure introduced in the legislature establishing a board of regents to carry on the further work of the Soldiers' and Sailors' monument. It would perhaps bo fully as well if the entire business was abolished and further work abandoned. It seems to be tinaim now to simply make the business a sinecure for politicians, and that is about all it has been for the past few years. Tho sentiment creating the monument was correct enough, but politicians now run the business of the structure, put money in their packets at tho expense of tho people, and care for it only so far as it pecuniarily benefits ihero. It should be stopped, and further expense cease from that source.
oomk sentimeni a! he last legislature introduce I biH inquiring the State to expond '-for the purchase of flags to be raised at every school house regularly every -lav during the session of the schools. The bill was probably in tho interest of an eastern house engaged in the manufacture of flag6, but even if it were not, the idea that school children must have flags shaken in front of them to instil a love of country is the vagary of a crank and will soon become obsolete. The soldiers of the late civil war when boys at school knew nothing of such foolishness, and rushed to the front without this instilling flag business. It is a very cheap display of patriotism to have flags run up in front of school houses. It maylook patriotic even if you don't feel particularly that way.
Thk bill introduced in the legislature and which passed both branches, changing the time of electing the county superintendent fro-n June until September, v.'es vetoed by the Governor and will not bo a law. The main reason given is tho great inconvenience to tho running and management of tho schools of counties by tho change. This is a sad blow to Maxwell, Walkup, Ewing, et al„ in this county, each one of whom very probably was secretly feeling that he would occupy Supt. Zuck's shoes long before the leaves would fall. Had the legislature have abolfshed the office altogether it is probable that a bill to that effect would not have boen vetoed.

The bill was iken from the tiles in order, if possib.'.-. to prevent its passage, but too late. Sena'* tor Seller happened to be in the rooni where the bill was at the time it was missed and hence the suspicion against..] him. His friends here do not for ai. stant think he had anything to do .villi the missing bill. The purloined bill was subsequently f»»pd

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up tho constitution and assisting naturo in doing its work.
