Indiana, as second-class matter,

FRIDAY, JANUARY" 25, 1895.

TnK Treasury deficit for December is $5,260,324, making an aggregate of $27,564,465 for the first half of the current fiscal year. These figures show at a glance what Democratic rule does for the Government.

HON. LUCIEN BAKER, of Leavenworth, has been nominated for United States Senator from Kansas. Mr. Baker is an Ohio man, but for the last twentyfive years has been one of the leading members of the Leavenworth bar.

HON. JOHN L. WILSON is the leading man for United States Senator in the Republican legislative caucus of Washington. At the end of the sixteenth ballot the vote stood: Wilson 27, Arkenny 16, McMillen 12, Allen 11, and Jones 1. What the result will be cannot be determined.

THE insurance trust lobby, as usual, seems to be holding the Legislature up by the tail. The trust can make it own laws and defy the Legislature t( change them. Some members have the idea that they are there to look after the interest of trusts and not the welfare of the people.

JOHANNISBEHG, in the Transvaal, a city of 40,000 [inhabitants, hardly known ten years "ago, stands upon a gold reef where 37,000 miners are employed. The streets are wide, the stores and residences are well built, there is water and gas service and there are lines of street cars besides a steam railroad which runs the entire length of the mining region.

THE Lafayette Coil sensibly says that the biil of Senator Sclienck, introduced the other day for the establishment of five new penitentiaries, to be used for the incarceration of young convicts so as to keep them away from the influence of seasoned toughs, is not looked upon with much favor. It is generally regarded as a move to make some more jobs for some more people, and it is not likely to amount to much.

to! THE Democrats abolished the reciprocity policy simply because of its Republican origin. They supposed in their eagerness to destroy protection that foreign nations would welcome free trade conditions and go on buying our products in the absence of the special favors that had been granted to them under the McKinley law. But it is now evident that these nations are not going to continue the plan of giving special privileges to our commerce when we refuse to do as much for them.

PROF. EMMONS, of the Geological Surrey, calls attention to the fact that in the Leadville district the output of gold increased from $500,000 -in 1893 to $2,000,000 in 1894, which goes to show, he argues, that from a mining point of view, the repeal of the coinage law was not a bad thing for Colorado. "It has caused labor and capital to seek new enterprises," he says, "and has been particularly effective in promoting gold mining," which is steadier than silver mining, and while it is fully as profitable, there is less speculation in it.

WHAT now costs Indiana$0,000 could be done for $180, and it is to reduce this expense that Representative Moore, of Montgomery, Putnam and Clay, has introduced a bill to change the section of the election law providing for canvassing boards. Ilis bill provides that the County Commissioners, previous to election day. shall ap' point a commission of one representative from each "party to canvass the vote. While it is true that the item saved will be small, yet it must be re membered that these small items in the aggregate make-one big sum. If we had voting machines a still larger sum could be saved.

ACCORDING to all the reports received from Nebraska, both by newspapers and private letters,Jthe distress among Che farmers in that State has reached appalling proportions. Hundreds of families, it is stated, have nothing to eat and no fuel, gand there is a most pitiful lack of clothing. It only needs we believe, a plain statement of the facts to induce people enjoying com fort and plenty in other parts of the country to share their substance with those who are in so sore straits in Nebraska. Food, clothing and fuel are the things needed, and they are needed at once. The sufferers must have help without delay, or their death by starvation and cold will be inevita ble. The pressing appeal in their behalf cannot be in vain.

TO PURIFY ELECTIONS. The bill of Senator Stuart,of Ma,rion, to prevent corruption in elections is receiving favorable consideration at the hands of the members of both Houses. It is a drastic measure and if enacted into law its effect cannot be otherwise than to reduce corrupt practices to their minimum if not entirely wipe them out. It prohibits and punishes bribery of whatever kind and -nature, even including the promise of any candidate of a deputyship. The election expenses of a candidate are fixed. He is limited to $100 in counties of 5,000 votes or less, and $2 for each 100 voters up to 10,000 voters. As Montgomery county has 8,000 voters a candidate from Congressman down to Constable cannot put into5- the campaign fund, either directly or indirectly a sum not exceeding $160. Any expense in excess of the amount named is declared to be unlawful. A statement in writing must be filed with the officer who issues the certificate giving all sums of money he has disbursed, and no certificate of election shall be issued until this statement is filed. The bill has twenty-four sections and is a compilation of laws governing elections in several other States where it has worked admirably.

TEMPERANCE LEGISLATION. The temperance question will not down, and there seems to be a disposition among a majority of the members of both houses of the Legislature to provide a way fpr abetter enforcement of the law regulating the sale of intoxicating drinks. iRepresentative Vanarsdall, of Manon, has introduced a bill in the House which provides that no license shall be issued to a man who has been convicted in any .county of the State of violating law. It provides that saloons shall not be conducted in connection with other business that tables shall not be in saloon rooms nor shall there be amusements of any kind. On prohibited days and hours persons shall not enter the saloon, and curtains shall not obstruct the view from the street. It ako provides that liquor shall not be sold in houses of ill repute. Violation of the law is made punishment by fine and imprisonment in the county jail not to exceed six months. The revocation of license ls-provided for. About the only difference between this bill and the Nicholson bill is that it does not include a locsl option feature. There are arguments both for and against local option, and even if this feature is omitted it would not mar its many other excellent provisions. If THE JOURNAL were to suggest anything additional that should be in the bill it "would be that the license fee be increased from $100 to $500.

MACHINE VOTING.

Representative Card well's resolution proposing a constitutional amendment looking toward machine voting has been favorably considered by the Judiciary Committee of the House. Mr. Cardwell in explaining his resolution said that in Floyd county the average cost of a precinct under the present election law was $69, while under a system of machine voting the cost would be $34 less, and only half the number of precincts would be needed. The cost of the machines, which are now on exhibition in New York, is about $200 each, iand Mr. Cardwell thought it might be possible to get one of them here for exhibition purposes. A test was recently made in New York with a ticket containing sixty candidates, and it is said the machine worked admirably in expressing the voters' choice. THE JOURNAL has herefore spoken in favor of this method of voting, and it is to be hoped that Mr. Cardwell's resolution will pass both Houses.

A STATE ARBORETUM. A bureau of forestry, horticulture and irrigation is what Mr. Van Arsdel contemplates in his bill introduced in the Legislature authorizing the government to appoint three commissioners, who shall inquire into the character and extent of the forests of the State, the cause of their waste and decay, and to suggest legislation necessary for their preservation and further development. Any person planting and cultivating for a period of five years a tract of timber land between thirty and forty acres will be entitled to a bounty of $3.33jj for each acre so planted and cultivated annually for a peried of five years. The second Friday in April is set apart as Arbor day. A tax of five miles for the years of 1895 and 1896 is to be levied for the support of a State arboretum, This arboretum is to be a tract from 320 to 640 acres, and is also to be used for military encampments and for a State park.

SENATOR CRANOR'S Congressional Ap portionment bill, introduced in the Senate yesterday, makes the Ninth district to consist of Warren, Tipije canoe, Montgomery, Boone and Hamilton. Its shape is not dissimilar from one of the worst gerrymandered South Carolina districts. If this is the best Senator Cranor can do the present dis graceful gerrymander should be per mitted to stand. The people are not in a humor to endorse such daraphool ishness.

LEGISLATIVE GRIST.

INDIAN^ LAWMAKING MILL IN FULL & OPERATION."

About 800 Bills Alrendy Introduced. Taxation Measures a Leading Feature. Apportionment Legislation Receiving

Considerable Attention—Gossip.

[Special Correspondence.]

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 22.—The legislature has finally gotten down to work, and it is possible to form an opinion as to the character of its labors. Thus far there seems a lack of the usual disposition to flood both houses with bills on trivial subjects. The body has been in session two weeks and only about 800 bills have been introduced. Ordinarily by this time the calendars of the two houses show 500 or 600. The tax law Baems to be the most popular product for the statesmen. More bills have been introduced on this subject than on any other. None of them attack the vital features of the law and most of them deal with very small details, such for instance as putting the road tax on the second instead of the first installment. Three or four bills have been brought up to put greenbacks among the taxables, and it is probably safe to say that this will be done. Some representatives say that the most thorough bill on the subject is one introduced by Representative Remey of Columbus, and it is the general understanding that he was assisted in preparing the bill by Congressman Cooper, the author of the bill which passed congress recently enabling the states to tax greenbacks. Another subject of taxation which is likely to receive considerable attention is the proposition to exempt mortgaged real estate from taxation. Representative Newhouse has such a bill pending in the house. It avoids cutting off railroad taxation by providing that the exemption shall only apply where the indebtedness is owned in this state and provides for the taxation of such indebtedness in the county where the property lies. Dog laws are conspicuous by their absence and there is a great falling off in the quantity of ditch and road laws.

Before the session began there was not a little comment on the probable need of a fool killer to kill off a whole lot of unnecessary legislation which it was thought would be brought forward. Members of both houses contend that no need for any such official has yet developed. Barring a disposition (always apparent at the beginning of a session) to waste valuable time in the discussion of trivial matters, both houses have started off smoothly.

This is the comment of a recently defeated candidate for speaker: "It is evidently the intention of Speaker Adams to make the cleanest possible record in the chair. I noted this first when I studied the makeup of his committees. On the committee on fees and salaries he has placed men of the most unquestioned integrity. On the committee on natural resources, which will have to do with any natural gas legislation that may be proposed, he has placed excellent men, mostly from the gas belt. In fact, wherever there has been dai«ger of the lobby getting in its work he lias placed his strongest men on guard. This is noticeable in the committee an corporations, at whose head lie has placed Merritt of Lagrange. This committee will have some very important questions for regulating building associations to consider, and the state and national associations which have sprung up like mushrooms within the past two years will have a strong lobby to look after their interests. "I notice this same disposition on the part of the speaker in little things. For years the joint rules have required that communications from the senate as to the passage of billq, etc., shall be read before the house, but the rule has invariably been violated. The messenger of the senate would invariably come up to the speaker's desk, leave such bills as had been transmitted with him and take his receipt for them. The house knew nothing about it and the speaker could pocket any bills he might see fit. When the messenger first came at this session the speaker informed him that he must make his announcement to the whole house until that body might order it otherwise."

The house and senate have an apportionment bill before them. Both bills are the same and are the product of much thought, for this is the most interesting subject in the session. Senaator Wishard and Mr. Newhouse, who head the legislative apportionment committees of their respective branches, introduced them. There are a number of particulars in which all the Republicans do not agree. They have held one or two conferences and are endeavoring to harmonize their differences. When this is accomplished it is likely that the bill will be submitted to a joint caucus for approval before an effort is made to pass them.

Neither of the congressional apportionment committees have progressed very far in this work. About 20 different bills have been submitted to the chairmen of these committees, but none of them seem to be entirely satisfactory. This question is certainly going to be one of the most difficult the general assembly will have to deal with. Not only are all the newly elected congressmen and their friends vitally interested in the matter, but there are a dozen or two aspiring statesmen in the legislature who are lying awake o' nights trying to figure out schemes by which each of them caq have a district carved out that would enable him to go to congress in 1896.

The "third house" has not yet gotten in shape for action. The paid lobbyists for the various corporations have not as yet made themselves conspicuous. The railroads have a man employed in each house to keep them posted upon all legislatioh affecting their interests that may be introduced. A few of the building association men have turned up just to get acquainted with the members and

it»

learn the ropes. The most persistent lobbyists of the session, the superintendents of the various state institutions, have not yet appeared to make their wants known. It has been the habit of past legislatures not to start the general appropriation bill through the house until after the middle of the session. It is the intention of the ways and means committee this year to get the general appropriation bill in shape as early as possible, in order that both houses may have ample time to consider it carefully.

No man in the senate has a keener tongue than Senator Kern. The other day the youthful Senator Boord arose to explain that he had been excused by the chairman of the Rennblican caucus from voting with the caucus on the question of purchasing statutes, and that therefore the statement of a morning paper that ho had ^5ted in the caucus was incorrect.

Senator Kern heaved a mighty sigh as he arose. "Now that the public has been relieved of a terrible strain," he remarked sarcastically, "I hope the business of the senate may proceed."

"Harry" Adams, general manager of the famous Baldheaded Glee club and all-round joker and story teller, happened to see "Jim" Mcintosh, the representative from Fayette and Wayne, standing near the Denison House elevator the other day with his- hat off. Mcintosh is comparatively youthful, but was born bald and deolares he has been that way ever since. Adams did not know him personally, but knew who he was. "Young man, I want to see you," he remarked solemnly, and seizing MclnSosh by the arm, he led him through 'the crowd to a quiet nook back of the office. The victim was mystified, but followed submissively. "Now sing!" said Adams. "Go 'Ta, ta, ta,' and he ran the scale. "Ta, ta, ta?" went Mcintosh, by this time thoroughly astonished. "You'll do," said Adams. "Henceforth you are a member of the Baldheaded Glee club," and the initiation was over.

Mr. Stutesman, one of the bright young members of the house, also came to grief while arising to a question of privilege. His resolution to increase the number of revised statutes to be purchased from 8 to 24 had just been defeated, much to his disgust, and he rose to a question a personal privilege and ironically demanded that one of the books be placed upon his desk. "Out of order!" shouted the speaker. "Some of us have personal privileges and some of us have personal grievances." And the business of the house proceeded.

A lot of time was spent by the house during the past week in squabbles over what should be the proper number and compensation of house employes. It was a regular thing for the bouse to wrangle an hour or so on this subject every morning, and the week ended with no definite conclusion arrived at. The matter had finally to go before joint caucus.

The majority of the senate is accused of having a "steering committee." The Democrats are not sure as to who compose it but they feel very certain that "Czar" Wishard is at its head. They also opine that Senators Crumpacker, Newby and Haggard have more or less to do with it. The senate caucus has no regular steering committee, say these senators, but there has been a disposition on the part of other members to rather leave the direction of affairs to these lour gentlemen, and they have not been at all slow in assuming the burdens of leadership.

The suggestion has already been made that such a committee be selected for the house, consisting of seven members. It will never materialize, however, for nearly every member of the house majority would think that he ought to be on the committee.

ffThe assertion that the County Officers' association has levied a 1 per cent assessment on the incomes of its members, the fund to be used in carrying to success the desires of the county officers in the matter of a fee and salary law, is the subject of considerable gossip. The purposa of the assessment is alleged to be for legitimate expenses (printing, postage, hotel bills for officers of the association, etc.), but since it has been figured out that response to the call for 1 per cent of salaries would raise a sum almost equal to $12,000 there is a strong suspicion that some of the fund is to be used in influencing members if it can be done. Considerable indignation has been expressed by some members on account of the alleged purpose to control legislation by this means, and it is even asserted that county officers will fare better if they withdraw lobbyists and allow the members to handle unhampered the proposed new law.

The first distinctly partisan bill introduced thus far, unless the legislative apportionment can be called a partisan measure, is the bill of Dr. Porter changing the time of election of county superintendents from June to August. At present the majority of township trustees of the state are Democrats and should the election of county superintendents occur at the usual time, the majority of these will be Democrats, but in August the present trustees will be succeeded by the newly elected ones, an overwhelming majority of whom are Republicans. Hence, there is not a little politics in the effort to postpone the election of superintendents.

Indiana has had as yet no primary election law, but one was introduced into the housa last week by Mr. Van Arsdel. A bill that would properly regulate political primaries and prevent fraud there would be a step in the purification of politics second only to the Australian ballot law, for there it is that most of the trickery work in politics is done. Mr. Van Arsdel's bill covers only the primaries for the eleotion of delegates, but if the subject is taken up at all and enacted into law it will probably cover nominating conventions as well. At present the only preventive of fraud in primaries and conventions is the fear that the victims may bolt the party and thus weaken it. UNO.
