LOST SPECTACLES.
Our erring brother who officiates as editorial writer on the Crawfordsville Journal, 111 yesterday's issue shows himself decidedly precipitate in his editorial in dcfen.se of the Caraway election law. We are perfectly willing that the Crawfordsville Journal should enter into editorial .'ontroversy with each and every correspondent we have, individually or collectively, as best suits its taste ami purpose. But it is a well known article of the code of newspaper ethics, that the paper is not held to account for the opinions correspondents may advance. THE
HI:VIEW has never expressed itself editorially on the Caraway law. but it has a correspondent who has, and this communication the Crawfordsville Journal characterizes as the "hypocritical cant of the Review.-' If the Crawfordsville Journal dislikes our correspondent's ideas of things, the correspondent is amply able to take care of himself, and we would enjoy seeing the dance commence. I11 this case the infallible judgment of the editor has suffered a severe contusion. Maybe he
mark more soft than the correspond-1 is eut. We cau assure him that we are not willing to take up a controversy for a correspondent who is as able? as this one to handle the Crawfordsville Journal. We have a very decided opinion on the election law. When we express it in the editorial columns, and it fails to meet the approval of the Crawfordsville Journal then we expect the sharp, withering blasts of his sarcasm to play about our heads. But until it effectually disposes of our correspondent, we will have nothing to offer. We are astonished at the amount of crookedness with which the editor seems familiar, in this locality. It is an astounding revelation of corruption in the municipality. It is a confession that he knows, yet as a good citizen, and good Republican, lias kept to himself until now, information which would have landed the "stinking herd of disreputable unscrupulous, and importunate curs" of whom he speaks as residing in this community, together with the "men with pockets full ol money and smooth tongues tempting men to vote against their sentiments" behind the bars of a state prison. If the editor of the Crawfordsville Journal knows that of which he speaks so openly in his paper, he has been at fault in not letting the information loose long since "when it would do the most good."
No wonder the Crawfordsville Journal favors the Caraway law. We should too, under the circumstances. A man can know too much sometimes. It becomes a burden. The Wandering Jew come again!
CAPTAIN HUSTON, in charge of the company of engineers at Havana, is reported by recent dispatches to haYe discovered irrefutable evidence in the fortress prison of Cuartel de Fuerste
that the Maine was blown up by the Spaniards. He is now following discovered electric wires which he believes will lead to the wreck of the Maine. If true it can but pile "Ossa upon Pelion" as far as the belief of any American is concerned. Not one doubts that the fiendish treachery of some Spaniard officials destroyed the vessel. The Maine will l© remembered here, but also in the land of Castile and Leon whose swift and just punishment meets the approval of the greater part of the world. Justice is well beloved, and justice was the portion of Spain.

DROP .IN THE nERCURY. When an editor endorses the sentiments of an alleged correspondent he may expect the same criticism, especially when there is every reason in the world to believe that editor and correspondent are one.—Journal.
Thus speaks our esteemed evening contemporary whose recent editorial revealed, with amazing and unblushing candor the grievous state of political putrescence existing in this "state of Denmark."
Alleged correspondent" foretooth! Wise and discriminating use of the adjective!But dear, doubting Thulium, the allegation may be easily substantiated. Come, put your finger on the print of this man's signature, and be convinced. Do it but "for the satisfaction of your thought," and '"make assurance doubly sure,'" since '"seeing is believing." If barbed shaft ol argument ma}" pierce the armor of that correspondent, he will cheerfully abide by the consequences, and heal his wounds as best he may. •'Every reason in the world" indeed! In whose world, pray? The editors? By what system of logic does lie draw conclusions, since his "e\ ery reason" plunges him into error? Has he reasoned in circulo. until 111 a dizzy state of mental turmoil he ends ad absurdum Are we to infer from the above extract that the editor of the Journal and Ins numerouseorrespondents. who write 011 current topics under various names, are
THE Standard Oil Company suit now 011 trial in New York. 111 which the trust is promiscuously mixed up with shady business transactions is developing more and more rottenness as the days pass by. Thieves are falling out they are threatening each other with exposure calling hard names swearing at each other and in various ways exposing a great lot of dirty linen to the public. It is to be hoped that there will be a vein of honesty struck at last, but. the work of excavation will have to go deeper than it has so far. Such things as these are the foster children of the Republican party, and from them is drawn each campaign the boodle for the corruption of elections. People, it is time for a rattling up of dry Ijones.
HENRY WATTERSON feelingly and sarcastically commiserates the Sentinel 011 the strained relations which now exist lietween the latter and a large portion of the Democratic press of the State. Henry has been there himself and knows just how it feels, and to judge from his remarks one might conclude that the sensation is not altogether pleasant. Just now they are companions in sorrow, and a common sorrow makes them "wondrous kind."
THE California General Assembly too, has adjourned without electing a Senator. Isn't there something too much of this? There must be some radical defect in a system that produces so many conspicuous and painful failures to elect, or which elects so many painful and conspicuous failures.
THE appalling disaster at the Windsor Hotel in New York, whereby sixty persons lost their lives, is a strong argument for the fire proof building. When too late the Corporation Counsel has commenced drafting a bill which will refuse license to all hotels not fire proof. *X 7,

dead: one of the officers who was with him also died, and the other is 111 a mad house as a result of that fall. Too much praise has not been given to Hohson. His laurels were well won. But these men were not less brave. Why should less honor be theirs? The exposure of the aerial vessel to shot and shell was fully equal to that of Hobson's boat, and after came the deadly plunge to earth, with scarce a single chance for life. While we laud the living, shall we forget the dead? Upon the tomb of these heroes tried and true, lay too the immortal wreath of honor and let their names be writ not alone in water.

Gypsy Hypnotl/.ers.
A gang of gypsies have been working Terre Haute to a finish lately. Their great scheme was fortune telling. Many young, love lorn maidens visited them to learn more of things matrimonial than they could discover for themselves, and as a result two young women of prominent familes asked the police for aid. They had been to the gypsv camp where one had given up and a gold watch, and the otherS'2.~ to the fortune tellers, and then gone home to sleep 011 eggs under the mattress. The next moiling when they went to tin* camp to have the dreams interpreted, the whole push had decamped. These girls and others claim to have been hypnotized as they cannot tell why they gave up their money and valuables. The police have telegraphed all surrondmg towns to watch for their coming. They are headed this wav, and mav reach us at anytime.
They will probably not find suckers as plentiful in Crawfordsville as at Terre Hauta. The average Crawfordsville girl can manage her love affairs usually without the aid of wandering hypnotizers.
Telephone Talk-
Almost everyone is having a few words to say just at present 011 the telephone situation. There is broad and extended ground for discussion. There have been many and devious winding paths traveled to reach the present state of affairs and it has been '•First one 011 top, then tot her chap,
And then they chewed a bit: They heeded not the thunder clap But fit, and fit. and fit." And still it goes on. There are charges and counter charges, criminations and recriminations, many grand stand plays, and soft speeches. Now is the time for a thorough discussion of the matter in all of its phases. The public is the interested one in the business, and all should be heard. Let the discussion be full and free and all the facts presented to the people for consideration. Those who use telephones art' not the only interested parties. The many rumors which are afloat, should be traced to a foundation in fact, or forever silenced. The truth is good enough for anvbodv.
flasonic Building,
For
SOUK
time the Masonic Order
here has lieen agitating the question of a Temple. The work is a large one. and will probably not be undertaken for sometime. The various Masonic lxxlies in this city have been cramped for room for somotime, and the proposition is now being agitated to make extensive improvementsin the building now occupied as a Masonic Hall. It is proposed to extend the space now occupied over the storerooms 011 the east of the present hall. These are to be converted into reception rooms, library and banquet hall. When this is done the Masonic lxxlies here will have as fine quarters as any lodge in the state.
A Pathetic Incident.
A pathetic incident occurred at the funeral of little Esther Cohee, at Frankfort, as told by the Crescent: '"The casket had been lowered and the final scene about closed, when the heart-broken parents knelt beside the grave and in concert repeated the prayer they had taught their child. When the baby had been taught to say "Good-night, Papa,'"Good-night Mamma," the parents said, "Goodnight, Esther." It was and goxl-bve."
PETTY PILFERERS
Crack Carver's House and Hold High
Carnival Therein.
Neal Carver lives on the Ladoga road, south of town. No particular trouble has been experienced from thieves in his vicinity within recent times. The fewness of depredations bred a confidence such as is sometimes betrayed. Mr. Caiver, in common with his neighbors, felt that confidence. A few days since all the members of the family serenely absented themselves, confident that everything would be well. When they returned to say that they were surprised would be to express it mildlv. They had had callers who I though they had failed to leave cards left abundant evidence of their pres1 ence. The whole house was 111 a terrible state of dismay. It had been ransacked from top to bottom in a I most earnest search lor valuables.
They exhibited quite a variety of taste and seemed to think that anything which could be carried was good enough to take. The house was terribly disordered, the furniture being tossed about, the bedding scattered and even the carpets torn from the floors. Among other things Mr. Carver misses his shot gun and lver. His razor is not in eviticks 110 as reguthe household tasks. The

thieves also bore triumphantly away the tidies from the favorite rocker and enriched themselves with $10 in C011 tolerate money which Mr. Carver had held as a cherished souvenir. He estimates his loss at about $10. He has very grave suspicions as to the identity of the marauders, and if a little more evidence can be accumulated it will go hard, but they shall be brought to well merited punishment. Such land pirates should be run to earth and at once. ws
"Aguinaldo Sympathizers." The Crawfordsville Journal 111 a headline announcing the defeat of the Filipinos at Pasig, denominates the catastrophe as a "sad bit oi news for the Crawfordsville amalgamated association of Aguinaldo sympathizers. This is an unkind thrust given to men who are not favorable to the expansion policy of the administration. These men are in favor of their country right, or wrong, but honestly differ with the administration, and think that it is wholly wrong. They are not sympathizers with Aguinaldo in his ill-starred rebellion, but Christian gentlemen, who object to gunpowder gospel and cannon tracts being used to end a war which we declared was for humanity's sweet sake, and for liberty, and entering 011 which, we pledged the world that it should not be a war of conquest. This is the basis of the opposition, not sympathy with Aguinaldo. Such flings are not becoming in any way. when hurled at tin.' heads of men who have grown grey in the service of their country, and have its best interests and its honor at heart. Coming from some sources it would have received no attention. but coming from the Crawfordsville Journal, a paper long noted for its conservative course and litter absence of "slang'' and "roasts" we cannot but apologize for it, and think that the

St. Patrick's Day.
St. Patrick's Day was observed by the Catholics of this city at St. Bernard's church. High Mass was held early in the morning, and later Rev. Father Dempsey preached an appropriate sermon. Many green riblxms, and shamrocks were seen in the button holes of citizens. The native of Ould Ireland will never go back 011 St. Patrick, and as "Kelley an' Burke an' Shea," are found under every sun, the green ribbon and shamrock were in evidence yesterday the wide world over.
Judicial Jollity,
Judge. West gave the jury a res from their lalors by taking them to see "True Americans.' The jury was much pleased with the kindness of the Judge, and a note was handed him by the foreman, signed by every member of the jury, thanking the Judge for his entertainment and the kindness with which he had treated them during the term of court just closed.
fo' ,' Damage Suit. From the Kankakee. (111.,) Democrat we get the information of a suit for damages to the amount of $2,000 being filed by the "Peoples' University of the United States" against John L. Goben. This institution is located at St. Annes, 111., and Mr Goben was connected with it for sometime after his removal from this city.
