FRIDAY, AUGUST «t. 1895.

As a hair splitter, Judge Taylor, of Terre Haute, is an eminent success.

THE Shanks affair in Fountain county is assuming the proportions of the Holmes mystery.

SINCE Mr. Cleveland was inaugurated the second time the wool clip of the United States lias fallen oft' 100,000,000 pounds.

THE amount of national bank notes in circulation on July 31 was 5211,2*1,008, an increase during the year of Sli,836,419.

GORMAN'S victory over the reform branch of the Democracy ought to make Maryland a Republican state this year.

A win.i. KNOWN writer in the North American Review says the Uuited States is increasing in wealth at the rate of $7,000,000 a day.

TIIE July deficit is nearly 820,000,000. The "bill of party perfidy and party dishonor" is still .getting in its work on the revenues.

TIIK yield of gold in the South African fields this year will make S?."0,00(),000 and much higher in 1S90. South Africa seems to be on a gold basis.

COI.ORAIK) claims to have discovered "a gold mine that yields Si 10.000 to the ton."' No wonder they want the Government Mint located at Denver.

Axii now the Populists are booming "Coin" Harvey for the Presidency. From this it would appear that they intend to pitch the irrepressible Weaver overboard,

THE deficit in the treasury for the first thirty-four days of the present fiscal year amounts to S10,S55,29n.33. At this rate it will reach S100,000,000 by the end of the year.

THE Democrats who are now shouting the loudest praises of the present tariff policy were the very ones who had nothing but abuse for the Gorman amendments to the Wilson bill-

IT is said that the full report of the Horr-Harvey debate will make a book larger than Webster's Unabridged Dictionary. Neither of the contestants will make a fortune from its sales.

ONE sensation at a time, please. First it was Trilby. Next came the Horr-Harvey debate. And now come Jackson's Hole and Holmes at the same time. During dog days it's more than newspaper readers can digest, ... lo'V miki

COMMENTING editorially on the Ilar-vey-Horr debate the New York Tribune says that Mr. Harvey never met, and never really attempted to meet, the one question toward which the argument was expected to tend, namely, whether the United States alone could safely revive the free coinage of silver, making sixteen ounces of silver equal in value to one ounce of gold, when the value is about thirty ounces of silver to one of gold. The Tribune adds:

One fact will strike every candid person who reviews the discussion, namely, that the entire silver argument turned upon viliifying and belittling the American people, their condition and progress, their industry, their practical sense and their sense of integrity, and particularly their Government. Something like three millions of them are paupers and tramps, Mr. Harvey thinks, and their buisiness is ruined, and their farms are mortgaged and going rapidly to money-lenders, and their homes are destitute and their cities the worst crowded in the world, all because they stopped using the money of Mexico and China and preferred the 'money of England and Germany. Mr. Horr's repeated exposures of this chronic weakness in his adversary will have some effect, and he was rightly indignant when it appeared that, in order to bolster up a cause for which he had no direct argument to offer, Mr. Harvey persisted in representing Congressmen as venal scoundrels, and bankers and business men as sharks and knaves who live by robbing the people. Harvey overlooked the inevitable corollary, that if so the people are fools, consenting for a quarter of a century to be robbed. The fact is, that they have more practical sense, and the bankers and business men have more honesty, than Mr. Harvey, who villifies them.1 His state of mind appears to be such that he would refuse to enter the city that "is pure gold" or to walk the golden streets, because they were not of silver.

JUDGE TAYLOR, of the Terre Haute Circuit Court, has decided that the Nicholson temperance law is unconstitutional and cannot be enforced. His point is that the sections embody two or three offenses each, and that inasmuch as the penalty clause provides for the punishment of any violation of the section, the penalty cannot be enforced unless the whole section is violated, or unless all the provisions of it have been violated. This is not splitting a hair "'twixt north and north-west," but it is the most utter nonsense that ever found its way into a judicial opinion. To violate any part of a section which part defines an offense, is to violate the section, as much as to punch a man in the eye is to violate his person. You don't have to strike a man all over in order to commit an assault and battery. It cannot be supposed that the Supreme Court will ever affirm such balderdash as law.

ST. LOUIS Glohc-Democrat: The pernicious vagaries of State Legislatures are a peculiar feature of American politics. The Indiana Legislature, at the last session, repealed the law allowing a discharged convict §15 and liberty to depart at the doors of the penitentiary.. According to the new law the Sheriff of each county takes the convict back to the county jail, where he is discharged in convict garb and without a cent of money. The Sheriff is allowed full mileage and fees for his own services. The devil himself could not have conceived a more inhuman piece of jobbery than this, By its operation the State brands a man who has paid the full penalty of the law and leaves upon him its badge of crime until he is relieved of it by the hand of charity. A Legislature that would pass such a law would steal a nickel from a sick widow with a family of starving children.

THE Noblesville Ledger calls attention to what it terms a "gouge" by the Circuit Judges of the State. It makes the charge that they take advantage of the law which allows them S5 a day for sitting as a special Judge in other courts than their own, and illustrates its point by citing the instance where a Judge from Indianapolis went up to Noblesville on the 11 o'clock train, called court at 1 o'clock, heard a motion, adjourned court, drew his warrant for Sir., three days' pay, and returned home with the money, having been absent from Indianapolis just four hours, and his regular salary of per day going on just the same. It says some Judges have held court in as many as three counties in one day and returned home at night with §45 as the result of the day's work. If all this is true it is an evil that calls for reform.

THE Republicans of Indianapolis met on Saturday evening and placed a municipal ticket in the field headed by Preston C. Trusler for Mayor. Judging by the big vote he received he is a very popular gentleman, and his record in public positions is such as to commend him to the favorable consideration of the voters. He is conceded to be a man of much personal integrity and of great business ability, just such a man as is required to be Mayor. That he will be elected goes without snyincf*

THE United States Mints seem to be coining gold» and silver right along every month, notwithstanding all the agitation. During July the coinage in the aggregate amounted to 83,235,800, as follows: Gold, 82,910,000 silver dollars, 8277,000 minor coin, 848,800. §11®

THE total number of Indians, according to the estimate of the Indian Bureau, is 348,253. exclusive of those in Alaska. In 1829, before the annexation of Texas and New Mcxico, the Indian population was estimated at 400.000. In 1855 the number was 350,000, a similar estimate being made for 1871. The decline in numbers has been very rapid in the last quarter of a century. The Cherokees and Cliippewas have increased their numbers, while the principal loss has been among the Sioux and other Northwestern tribes. In 1S71 237,478 were on the reservations, and at. the .beginning of 1895 this number had decreased to 133,417, or about a third of the total number. Less than 30,000 of these support themselves, the government issuing supplies to most of them.

Ma.IOR HANDY, in the Chicago TimesHerald, says: "Politicians out West are very much surprised to find that New York Republicans are so much in earnest about entering Governor Morton for the Presidential nomination. They have thought, and were at one time assured, that the Morton boom was simply a matter of compliment, and have made all their calculations upon New York's having no real candi. date. Now, however, they see in Morton a candidacy of prime importance. He stands high in the estimation of Republicans all over the country, and with New York giving him an enthusiastic backing his chances of success will be quite within the range of probability.

THE negro commissioners to the Cotton States and International Exposition through the chief of the colored department, 1. Garland Penn, have issued an address to the colored people of the United States, calling upon them to redouble their efforts to make the display of their lives at Atlanta's great Exposition. After citing the fact that the Exposition Company has complied with their promise, the commissioners call upon the negroes to do their duty because North and South will be to see them, and they should make their utmost endeavor to have such an exhibit as they are capable of making. The address urges every negro who can send anything of credit to the race for an exhibit to send it directly.

THE Indianapolis Journal says that fifteen years ago one-fourth of the world's wheat came from the United States. Now only one-sixth ot' it is grown in this country. Fifteen years ago all the world's wheat was grown in the north temperate zone. In the last six months nearly one-fourth of the British imports of wheat were from Argentine and Australia. Fifteen years ago two-thirds of England's foreign wheat came from the United States: in the last six months onty a little over one-third was from this country.

ACCORDING to orders issued by Secretary Morton, of the Department of Agriculture, the free see 1 distribution at government expense will be discontinued on October 1. This reform will save 8200,000 a year. The Secretary believes the money formerly spent on seed may be utilized to better advantage if applied to the publication and distribution of bulletins showing how chemistry and other sciences may be applied to agriculture. The garrulous Morton has one good thing that can be set down to his credit.

LAFAYETTE Call: The Courier is very anxious to find out what good the Horr-Harvey debate has done. Well, probably not much but for the life of us we cannot see what possible harm has been done and so, if nobody has been harmed, what of it".' And then, dear brother Courier, it afforded our ex-Senator, Francis Johnson, a chance to go up and fget pointers for use in his speeches in the coming1 campaign as the Republican candidate for (iovernor. That is one benefit, certainly. The Courier should not overlook it.

COMMENTING on the demagogic assertion that in New York the rich man on Sunday can get ail the brandy and champagne he wants, while the poor man cannot get his beer, the Watertown Times says: "Well, that will balance things up. II the rich keep on drinking champagne they will become poor, and if the poor stop drinking beer they will become rich." There is a volume of philosophy in this and the poor beer drinkers should ponder it well.

THE monthly Treasury statement of the public debt shows the total debt on July 31, less cash in the Treasury, to have been 8940,10S,905, an increase for the month of 838,435,938. This increase is due to the delivery to the London syndicate during the month of §31,157,700 in 4 per cent bonds, together with a loss of 86,090,822 in available cash.

THOSE who are resting in the belief and assurance that Mr. Cleveland will not accept a nomination for a third term should not forget that in accept ing the nomination the first time he declared in terms that could not be misunderstood that the Presiden should be made ineligible for a re-elec tion, and irapedly declared that, he would not be a candidate even the second time. Mr. Cleveland's letter contained these striking sentiments "When we consider the patronage this great offitfe. the allurements of power, the temptation to retain public place once gained, and, more than all the availability a party finds in an in cuinbent whom a horde of officeholders, with a zeal born of benefits received and fostered by the hope of favors yet to come, stand ready to aid with money and trained political service, we recognize in the eligibility of the President for re-election a most, serious danger to that calm, deliberate and intelligent political action which must characterize a government bv the people." Notwithstanding these declarations Mr. Cleveland twice afterwards accepted the nomination for reelection. From all appearances he is now doing what he did during his first term, manipulating "a horde of office holders" in ways which constitute "a most serious danger to that "calm, deliberate and intelligent political action which must characterize a government by the people." Mr. Cleveland's adorers should be watched.

THE Democratic tariff law is still doing business at the old stand, and the trade is increasing each day.— Frankfort Crescent.

Yes, the "bill of party perfidy and party dishonor" caused a deficiency of only about §45,000,000 during the last fiscal year, and $10,000,00 during the first month of the present fiscal year. It is still doing business at the old stand.

THE pension payments last month amounted to 8)2.755,427, a reduction of about §147,000 from July, 1894, which shows that Lochren and Smith have been getting in their work on the "reissue" scheme. Nearly 8150,000,000 has been saved by the method of reduction.

THE United States treasury contains 8155,354,065 in gold, 8512,746,14!) in silver, 8123,376,791 in paper,-815,920,823 in bonds to disburse officers' balances, a total of 8807,397,830, against which there are demand liabilities amounting to 8020,248,300, leaving a cash balance in the treasury of S1S7,149,530.

THE engineers' estimate of the cost of the Nicaragua canal was 864,000,000 in 1S88 and 890,000,000-in 1891. The commission just returned from a journey along the route place the figures at 8110,000,000. The canal should be built at whatever cost.

A NEW mint is to be established somewhere in the West, and Director of the Mint Preston is in Denver now where he expects to select a site. The Centennial State is desirous of securing it that it can the more rapidly coin its surplus of gold.

T'be Tools Found.

About three months ago the Valley mill was burglarized, mention of which at the time was made in THE JOURNAL. At this time there disappeared from the blacksmith and repair shop of Buck & Donohue a brace, sledge hammer, monkey wrench, chisels and other tools, but they could not be found although diligent search was made at the mill and in every nook and cranny where they would likely be thrown. They gave them up as entirely lost when a man was seen passing the shop Monday with the tools in his possession. They stopped him and made inquiry as to the manner in which he obtained them and were told that he fished them out of the creek. They demanded the delivery of the missing articles when the gentleman quietly turned them over to the rightful owners.

«e Vindicated.

John Vyse, charged with suborning a witness to commit perjury, had a preliminary heariug Monday before 'Squire Ilanna. The only witness for the State was Bodkins, an acknowledged perjurer, so as the defense put up some rather stiff evidence the court refused to bind Vyse over. The case ends here.

Insurance Paid.

W. W. Morgan, of the Northwestern Life Insurance Company, Monday paid to Mrs. Martha Truitt 82,929 insurance on the life of F. A. Truitt. The policy was for 82,500, the remaining 8429 being returned premium.

Resolution* of Thank*.

"Busied with the body politic," writes an Arkansas editor, "I neglected my own, till malaria swamped me, alternately chilling and consuming. I had more headaches than a barrel of Jersey dightning. An old medical friend advised Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and it cured me. Then there was a ratification meeting up at our house—resolutions of thanks to Dr. Pierce and my medical friend wene unanimously adopted- Both of them can always have oesv position in this paper, next to reading matter." The medicine cures and expels ague and other miasmatic diseases by rousing^ the torpid liver to activity. It purifies the blood, so surely and cercertainly that, once used, it is always in favor.

TRILBY ON'HORSEBACK.

Ihe Beautiful Heroine Klegaiitly .Represented in the Circus.

The rage for Trilby has even struck the circus. Mr. J. A. Baily has reproduced the famous heroine of DuMaurier with all her original, charming and chaste beauty, and placed her on the back of a speeding horse with Svengali as the ringmaster. It makes an exceedingly pretty and delightful equestrian act, and appears simultaneously with two other long skirt riding acts—the serpentine and skirt dance, both of which are also performed on the backs of running horses in the Barnum Baily show. A lady clown too, and a lady ringmaster are two more decided novelties in the circus this year, while the grand Water Carnival, with tremendous dives from lofty heights into shallow depths of water, with champion log rolling, fancy swimming and pother aquatic feats, is not only a conspicuous novelty but contains some wonderful and thrilling sub-aqueous performances. In the water circus »are two wonderful and remarkable acts. The first is a tremendous head-foremost dive from the roof of the canvas into less than five feet of water, and the other is what is called the Monte Cristo.drop, In this feat a man is tied in a large bag and hoisted to a height of thirty feet and then dropped into the water. While underneath the surface and entirely submerged, he changes his clothes, unties the bag and reappears dressed only in tights. The whole aquatic entertainment is filled with comic and ludicrous features. Boats are upset and the occupants seen floundering in the water, while funny fishing and bathing scenes are plentiful. Many of the strange people in the Ethnological Congress also give exhibitions of swimming skill in the lake of water. In the two menageries are actually 24 elephants, a 'greater number of those beasts than were ever seen together before in this country, and Johanna, the giantess gorilla, and fifty cages of other rare beasts. In the Ethnological Congress are representatives of all the strange people of the world, which offers a strange and weird sight to the student of Ethnology. The whole, undivided show will be here on Friday, Aug. 1(, and will present its novel attraction in four rings, one of which is filled with water, on two elevated stages, in an animal arena and on the hippodrome racing track. One hundred acts will be given and sixty-four cars and 400 horses are necessary to transport it. The great street parade will take place in the morning.

Fine Kacing Assured.

Secretary Morgan, of the fair association, reports that the racing here this fall will be by far the finest ever witnessed here. Horsemen all over the country are writing for information and the owners of two famous horses, one with a record of 2:07 and another with a
