THE COMMENTATOR.
DIVERS AND SUNDRY MATTERS OF INTEREST TO THE
PUBLIC.
A Column Devoted to Caustic Comment, News, Criticism
and New Ideas.
CRAWFORDSVILLE, IND., Jan. 28, '99. The late race for the United States Senatorship in Indiana developed the fact that tht-re iB more in buncombe than there is in bocdle, with some Legislators. 1 1 1
The proprietors ot, THE NEW REVIEW have been Democrats from childhood's hour.

General Miles has so far not been worsted in the controversy over the conduct of the war.
The proposition made by soi^e members of the State Legislature to pension the widow of the late Governor Morton is vicious. It is not in accoid with the spirit of our institutions, and smacks of a maudlin sentimentality. It is a precedent which it set will be a constant drain on the resources of the people of the State, and ehould be promptly put to eternal rest. Granting all to be true that Governor Morton's most ardent admirers say as to his services to the State uf'lndiana in the dark days of civil strife, and no one will dispute the truth of a single proposition no one has any desire to do so, and withall, we can see no reason for the State of Indiana going'into the pension business. If the State owes the estate of Governor Mor ton anything, pay it no matter how much it is, pay it, and cancel the obligation but to pension bis widow at the rate of $100 per month is something the people of the State will object to, and the sentimentalists who are urging it will so discover. A pension to Mrs. Morton lays dowu a precedent to pension the widows of all Indiana's great men,—Colfax, Hendricks. McDonald, Pratt, Orth, Calkins, and later on Har rison, Fairbanks, Turpie, Beveridge and the Lord knows where it would stop. Again we say, if the State of Indiana is indebted to the late Governor, make an appropriation covering it and pay it promptly, but in the interest of future generations do not
Bet
a vicious preced
ent which will entail on unborn generations a pension roll of widows ot the State's great men. Everyone of the men named have followers a6 maudlin in their sentiments as the friends of the late Governor, and a precedent once set will continue on and on. With all respect to the dead Governor and bis surviving widow we protest.
There is a very decided sentiment in favor of relieving judges of the responsibility of riding on free passes. Every possible safe-guard should be placed about the wearers of the ermine.
The vexed question of convict labor
is again calling for legislative action. To leave those men without work is the refinement of cruelty. To place them in a position to compete with free labor is not to be considered for a moment. Why ehould not a system of public improvement be inaugurated which would solve the problem for all time? The demand for better roads has in nowise abatud. Roads could be scientifically constructed by convict labor at a minimum cost, each county receiving a proportionate allotment of time each yrar, the county commissioners directing its expenditure. That which is now a burden might thus be turned into a real benefit. It is a question that demands an immediate solution.
There can be no doubt but Hanley is now busily engaged in whetting up his snickersee and getting ready to insert it between the political ribsof W.SHaggard two years from now. When he launches his gubernatorial boom, he will find it full of punctures.
It is related of Dr. Tharn, of the Christian church, that he is trying to Dreak the attendants there of the habit of turning around whenever any person goes out, or in reponse to any commotion in the rear of the room. May his laudable efforts 6ucceed, There is nothing eo annoying to a person who is ill and has to leave a crowd ed room, as to have a few hundred pairs of cur.ous ejes locueed upon them. This is a much needed reform in every community and the efforts of Dr. Tharp should be crowned with success,

Democratic candidates. '&ii A close observation of human nature as seen in politics aud pncial life causes one to become a firm believer in the remark of an old philosopher that too many men mistake gall for ability.
"Gov. Hageard," was the way our antiquated Lieutenant-Governor had fondly expected to write it after the caiicus for United States Senator. The outcome is a sad blow to the hopes of the Wababh statesman. He never gave up the idea that Gov. Mount should consent tojjratify his ambition to become chief executive, by himself becoming a candidate for Senator. At last when Mount gave up the chase the judge pinned his faith to Beveridge. He was looking ahead. Haggard is a sly old fox, and has his lightning rod up expecting to catch a bolt of the electric fluid two years hence. But "there's many a slip etc."
Crawfordsvilie should be proud of the fact that she iB the best lighted city in the State. There may be some few things to criticize in the lighting plant, etc., but they can be remedied by the by the exercise of common sense, and they must be approached in the, right manner. 1 1 1
Crawforaeville is a Labor Union city. While the great manufacturing interests of the country are organizing into trusts and combines, crowding all smaller concerns to the wall. While the Standard Oil Company like a giant octopus ie spreading out its clammy tenacles over every oil field in the land, and choking valuable franchies and property out of the hands of smaller operators, the laboring men are noiidle. They are organizing for better protection. While the combines are Lying to force wages down to a bare existence for those who labor, the muscle and brawn of this country are also heard from. They are organizing also. The battle is on between protected capital and unprotected labor. God is on the side of right and justice alwajs. The struggle may be long but labor will win in the end.
John D. Rockefeller has given Franklin College $50,000 of Standard [Oil hard earned cash, on condition that the college raise $50,000 in addition. This is mighty kind in Mr. Rockefeller. He is building monuments to himself all over the country, out" ot the earnings of other men. We say this for the well known reason that no man ever born had the capacity to earn five million dollars in the channels of honest business. It must come from the labor of other men. So has the millions come to eo many men. Sharp practices and cutting with a two-ed^ed knife, and rising to affluence over the wreck of human hopes.
Many are inclined to criticize Gen. Shatter for his statement that io the assertion of dominion over the Philippines by the United States, we would probably have to kill off half the population ot the Islands. To be sura this is a proposition revolting to the Christian civilization, which we are supposed to have in this country. But Gen. Shatter is a soldier, and he speaks as a soldier. He knows what the couree of imperial colonization always has been and always will be. The only way hostile savages have ever been tained and made to wear the Caucasian yoke has been by means of sword and gunpowder. There is no use in criticizing Shatter for speaking the truth. The history of the world proves what he states. We have had to settle the Indian question that way. England settled it in India by the same process. It will so happen again in the Philippines unless wisdom and not greed sways the powers that be.

A divorce trial at Lebanon this week revealed the fact that the man in the case had been drunk on an average three times a week for 30 years. His wife has grown just
a
little bit tired of it.
This beats the record. 4,689 times drunk is enough to irritate any wife and she is entitled to freedom ..v.-
Terre Haute is to have a new distillery which will use 1,000 bushels of corn daily and turn out 5,000 gallons of ceain lightning whiskey. Terre Haute is bidding for the crown of Peoria.
Senator Quay cannot yet see the end. He stands between the penitentiary and the Senate, with the odds much in favor of the former.
MARRIED.
Wedding of ban C. Stover and
Miss Helen Watson.
At the residence'of H. C. [Watson on east Wabash avenue at 11:30 Tuesday morning occurred the marriage of Urban C. Stover, an Anderson attorney, well konwn here as a student of Wabash college, and Miss Helen Watson. There was no elaborate preparation and the only witnepees were tha immediate relatives of the contracting parties. The ceremony was performed by Rev, L. E. Murray, of Ladoga, a brother-in-law of the groom. .Mr. and Mrs. Stover, left on the Big Four west, on a short bridal trip, after which tbey will be at home at Anderson. The groom is a son of Daniel Stovor of Ladoga, and nephew of Judge Harney, of this city. The congiatalatione of TIIE NEW REVIEW follow them to their new home.
The New Review.
Beginning with to-day," the management of the oldest paper in Montgomery County changes. It will be democratic to the core. It will be honest in the discussion of all public questions. Alwajs plain and never abusive, treating all men as having equal rights before the law, and entitled to respectful treatment at the hands of a public journal.
Ihe mechanical force of the concern will be 6trictly union. We believe in organized labor and the paper will be the outspoken friend of the laborer in all departments of work, and will speak in his behalf whenever it can legitimately do so.
The paper will be materially improved from time to time, enlarged, redreesed, made handsomer, and filled brimfull of all the news of the county, gotten up in readable shape, well piinted, well edited, clean and wholesome, in fact a family newspaper in,the highest meaning of that term.
With experience, mechanical and editorial, brought to its aid we expect the NEW REVIEW to become a welcome visitor each week in the homes of three thousand Democratic families in the county and district. In a short time the weekly edition will be augmented by a daily, in all respects equal to any ever published in Montgomery County. We call upon the friends ot Democracy and good government, and' all who desire a good wholesome, clean family newspaper.to lend us their aid and support. The latch string is out, frienda. Come and see us.
