THE PANAMA SO AN UAL.

Representative Brookshire Does l)ot Believe Teat ex-Secretarv Thompson is Mixed Up in It.

There has been a good deal of talk about the possibility of the Panama canal scandal, which is agitating France, extending to this country says, the Washington Star. Col. Richard W. Thompson, who was Secretary of the Navy under Hayes and who was president of the American branch of the Panama Canal Company, lives in Representative Brookshire's district. A Star reporter asked Mr. Brookshire, who is friend of ex-Secretary Thompson's what he knew about hie connection with the affairs of the company. "I know only," replied Mr. Brookshire, "what is generally known to the public, that is to say that he was a mem ber of the company, as I understand, and has been for several years. I believe he became a member of the company during the administration of Pres ident Hayes. Mr. Thompson is a man now 83 years of age, I think. He is singularly well preserved and thoroughly well informed. I don't know a man anywhere who possesses so much general information and such a remarkable knowledge of men and their history as does Mr. Thompson. I think there are only two men beside himself, who are now living, who served in Congress with him. He was in Congress with the old masters, Benton, Clay, Calhoun and Webster. He served in the House of Representatives before Abraham Lincoln did. He is a staunch Republican, makes as good a Republican speech, in my judgment, as any man in Indiana, and always takes an active interest for his party. He has the universal respect of our people. He certainly holds a very enviable place in the affection and confidence of the people of our country and especially of the people of western Indiana. I never heard a man in my life call his integrity in question and I am sure that the people who know him best would be very slow to believe him guilty of any wiong in the discharge of the duties o! a high trust. In fact, I do not believe he has been guilty of any intentional wrong, because he is a plain liver and I do not think he has been ambitious to be wealthy. He is a magnanimous, clever man, and I not think that he is sufficiently selfish to be influenced to do wrong for money. It may be, however, that he is the victim of a combination of unfortunate circumstances. Of course, the Panama canal scheme is one of large proportions, and all people who have been concerned in the management of that project are liable to be wrongfully accused, directlv or inforentially, by things occurring in the newspapers, but for the reasous I have stated cannot believe for a moment that Mr. Thompson has been guilty of wrong. I hardly over go to Terre Haute without calling upon him and am always treated with great courtesy and respect and I find no one more entertaining. He has an inexhaustible store of reminiscences running through an active political experience of more than fifty years. I doubt whether there is a man living in the United States to-day who is more familiar with the incidents in the lives of our public men living a ad dead."

Honor Without Remuneration Sheriff's ovtr the State who have guiiw into office under the new law are raising a great howl and declare that unless the law is repealed they will be bankrupt. Marion county furnishes an excellent illustration and the following from he Sun illustrates the sheriff's position:

When Robert Emmett was nominated and elected Sheriff of Marion county he had no idea what he wouid have to contend

Avith

under the law which was

passed by the legislature of 1891, making the sheriff's office a salaried one instead of a fee office as before. As the law now is the sheriff receives a a salary of 813,000 per year, but before ho gets this amount he must turn in the treasurer over S13,000 in fees, which is impossible to do, as the fees, such as serving processes, taking prisoners to jail, attending court and sheriff's sales amount to ouly about $9,000 per year.

There cannot possibly be enough fees collected under the new law to make the required $13,000. The expenses alone of the sheriff's office will reach more than S9,000 per year. To conduct the business of the office properly it requires nine deputy sheriffs, who are paid by the sheriff. The sheriff is also compelled to furnish, at his own expenses, vehicles used by his deputies in serving papers, and there are other expense which would leave the sheriff considerably in debt at the end of a year if he got only §9,000. In

Bpeaking

of the matter

Wednesday morning Sheriff Emmett said to a Sun reporter: "For the life of me, as things now stand, I cannot make expenses out of the office. My salary is SI3,000, but before 1 get it I must make it out of fees in Marion county only, and that cannot do. Mileage for taking prisoners to the penitentiary has been cut off and 1 get nothing but my expenses. It requires two days to go to Michigan Citv, and if I received mileage for this it would just about make up my salary, had to lay off two men Tuesday, because I am not making enough to pay them. I will contest the law, as it is unconstitutional. If I am not allowed mileage for the cransjjortation of prisoners to the penitentiory then I will be compelled to resign my office, as I would only get deejily in debt."

Death of Oapt. R. W. Ooolman. Capt. Robert W. Coolman, of Thorn town, and father of Henry Coolman, of this city, died last Saturday. He was a soldier in the Mexican war and was present at the surrender of the city of Mexico. While enroute to Mexico Mr. Coolman was taken sick and it was supposed that he died. His remains were clothed for the grave but after the body had been placed in the coffin signs of life were shown and he was resuscitated. He was also a soldier in the civil war and served as Captain of Co. F., 86th Regiment, Indiana Volunteers.

THAT $4,000 DONATION.

A Plea For Liberality Without Extravagance Expending Public Funds. To Editor tho ol' The Journal.

Wo all want tho taxes kept down to the lowest point possible by a careful scrutiny of every demand made on the treasury, but we do not expect them reduced to so low a point as to impair the efficiency of government or to stop the wheels of progress.

The charge was made against the Democratic party in 1860 that they had carried the expenses of the government to an extravagant point when they spent §60,000,000 a year in all departments. The present administration is spending 375,000,000 a year on the Post Office Department alone, but there has been no charge of extravagance on that account and there will be none if the incoming administration shall carry the expenses of the Post Office Department to more than 8100,000,000 a year if by the increased expense we shall have mail delivery in the rural districts. But if the Post Office Department or any other can be made just as effective as it is now with a less expenditure, it is that economy that the people want in all departments, whether National, Statb or county.

The question is now up in our county whether the Commissioners have been extravagant in the use of the public funds in the aid given to Wabash college.

We have given $4,000 by which we

The School Director Speaks.

To tho Editor ol' the Joui-iial,

In your Friday's issue was a brief notice of Lhe Teachers' Slate Convention voting to ask tho Legislature to abolish the office of school director. No doubt there were reasons given Dut not having had the opportunity to hear or see tbena, I would ask for myself and fellow directors, what their reasons are, if any. It can't be on the ground of economy, as there is no salary. There was an effort a while back to abolish the office of countj superintendent. Is this in the same line, or is it to put part of the duties of the director on the superinhim more to do and a better hold on office?

The attempt to abolish these two offices looks very suspicious. No doubt most teachers would like it, as they are very restive as a class, under control. The law places teachers under both class of officials. No doubt teachers would like to deal with the trustees direct, and the practice, though contrary to law in some respects, is too common now. iS'itSW |§l|

A school director is required by law to visit the school often. What amount of visiting could be done by Trustee Hartman to the numerous schools of Union township? The director is elected by his neighbors for his fitness and proximity, which is an excellent plan and if he is not satisfactory he can be replaced by the patrons the next fall. But if a trustee does not manage to suit patrons thev have no redress for four years and then only by a fight at the polls of the township in which the other numerous school districts may have little or no interest. When the patrons of school districts become dissatisfied with the director part of our school system it will be time enough to ask a change. But when teachers ask for the abolishing of the director's office, it is reasonable to believe the office is necessary if it does hustle the teacher. If there are any good reasons for its abolishment, please let us know and oblige. A SCHOOL, DIKKCTOH.

The State Charities.

The annual report of the State Board of Charities was submitted to the Governor to-day. The censws shows that insanity is rapidly increasing the ratio is one person to each 545 people in the State. In the hospitals of the State arp 2,767 cases of insanity. The report urges the Legislature to make appropri ations for needed improvements which the reports of the institutions have suggested, and also recommends several changes in the laws relative to the charitable institutions. The number of county asylums and jails throughout the State have increased, and a great majority of them are in good condition. The expenses of the board for the year were $4,000. It recommends that the amount be increased to $5,000 a year.

A Change In Firm.

The well known firm of Swank Clark has been changed by Thomas S, Clark assuming the entire business. Mr. Swank, however, will continue in the store as cutter. This firm started in business ten years ago in the rear of the First National Bank, moved to 206 east Main street a few years later, and in 1890 to the present location. It has had a most prosperous career and the junior member who now comes into full control is amply able to take care uf the business.

THE VILLAIN STILL PURSUES HER.

have secured for the college $35,000 that she has rejoined the recreant Elmer outside capital. Now let the individual tax payer see how this affects him. Less than three cents on the $100 of taxables is all that is required assuming that the taxable property of the county amounts to $15,000,000, 30 cts. on the $1,000 of taxables. Can we,if we desire our city to advance, afford to refuse this amount of tax. I think we could well afford to pay $4,000 a year if by doing so we could secure the college outside to the amount of $35,000 a year. To secure the co-education of the sexes in Wabash college, the city of Crawfordsville and the county of Montgomery might well unite and make an annual contribution to tho college of $5, 000, if so much would be necessary for a given number. We Lave frequently offered to give large sums to secure manufacturing establishments because they would increase our prosperity, but they would not bring it to any greater degree than a large number of students to the college. Every student would bring a contribution from his home to spond among us just as well as the employe of a manufacturing establishment would spend his earnings among us. SAMUEL B. HOICFCEN.

Elmer Marsh Again Gets Gay and Plays Hob Generally. Mrs. Elmer Marsh is over from Danville, 111., whooping about and trying to discover some trace of her husband, the fascinating but erratic Elmer. It will be remembered that about a month ago Mrs. Marsh brought Elmer and his mistress, Ollie Mills, home from St. Louis, where they had been leading the gay for some timti Ollie went home to her mother and wanted to shoot Elmer when she learned that he was living with his wife. Elmer and wife resolved that although snow was on the ground that the air of Crawfordsville was close and stuffy, so they hied themselves to Danville, 111, to live in the tranquil quiet of the vine and fig tree of that peaceful oasis, yea, to bathe in the incorruptible waters and rivers of milk, thereof, the taste of which changeth not. Elmer had $785 which he put in the bank in his wife's name, keeping along red string to the wad, however, by leaving it subject to his order. Several days ago he drew the pile, with the exception of S50 and left for Chicago ostensibly. When

Mrs. Marsh discovered his disappearance with the money she lifted up her voice and wept. She boarded the train and arrived in Crawfordsville full of grief, rage and lamentation. Here she discovered that her rival the fair, frail Ollie, who a few weeks ago was threatening to put a pill in Elmer's biscuit, had likewise disappeared. It is inferred

in other pastures green and new. It is an affair that is fast becoming as ridiculous as it is scandalous and if the foxy Elmer ever again puts his foot in the corporate limits of this fair city, a committee should take him in hnnd and given him an "eider down party."

A Peculiar Oase.

Mrs. Pack Wilkinson, of north Green street, is evidently of the ojMuion that her little nine year old son will be stoop shouldered if he persists in sticking his hands in his breeches pockets and running on to school. Accordingly she sewed the pockets up and Tuesday morning the youngster started for school without mittens. On his way he fell and his hands, getting covered with snow, was frozen stiff when he reached the engine house. There the men took the crying urchin in and his hand was rubbed with coal oil and other remedies. After receiving treatment he was taken to his home by his father, who had been sent fur. The poor little chap suffered considerably.
