SENATOR SHERMAN'S book is at least affording an interesting subject for discussion.
THE publishers of Sherman's book are getting plenty of advertising without paying "next to reading matter" prices.
ENOUGH energy has been expended in talking about the Corbett-Fitzsim-mons meeting to make a dozen firstclass fights.
NEITHER Calfornia nor Italy ever had brighter skies, softer breezes or lovelier sunshine than Indiana is having just now.
SENATOR SHERMAN has written a book and the people are now trying to find out what he means by some of his statements concerning promiment persons.
THE difference between Senator Sherman and his brother, the General, was that General Sherman, when he wrote for publication, never left the people in doubt as to what he meant.
THE last Kentucdy Legislature enacted a law permitting any county, upon a vote of the people thereof, to purchase the toll roads 'therein and make them free, and in many counties the fight for free roads is now on.
SENATOR CHANDLER, of New Hampshire, has written a long lettei to the Colorado Republicans, in which he advises them to stand by the Republican party, as it is the only political organization that will ever secure a bimetalic standard of value.
IF the mourners over "the enormous pensions" paid to veterans will be patient time will work the changes to please them. In 1880 there were 3,020 deaths of pensioners. In 1S95 there were 7,368. The old veterans will go fast, from this time on. The grumblers enjoying the fruits of their toil and patriotism can well afford to quiet down
CARROLL D. WRIGHT, commissioner of labor, in his annual report devoted to labor troubles, attempts an estimate of the loss cauoed by strikes in the United States during the thirteen and a half years ending June 30, 1894. He computes the loss from strikes and lockouts to employers at S94,82-5,837, and to employes at more than twice as much—$190,439,382.
THE London Financial Xcwn makes some remarks on the workings of the Gorman tariff law which ought to make genuine Americans think seriously. It says with truth:
The lowering of the American tariff has been our salvation, and it cannot be said that we have shown much re
ciprocity, for, instead of taking the increased value of our shipments across the Atlantic in kind, we seem to have bought less American produce. It is needless to go beyond our own li"ard of Trade returns to find an explanation of a good deal of the monetary trouble in the United States.
The London Economist, is no less happy over the working of that law for it says:
While our exports of woolen goods were somewhat larger to most other countries the great increase from U'.il,(149 in September, 1894, to £424,391 last month in the shipments to the United States overshadows every other item. ....Our trade in metal goods with the United States shows considerable expansion on account of the high prices now quoted for all classes of iron in America. The demand for pig iron from there has recently been so strong that nearly 6,000 tons, valued at .£33,300, were shipped from this country last month... .Owing to the recent rise in the price of raw material in America, it is anticipated that our tin-plate makers will be able to compete on better terms with the protected native industries in the future.
No doubt this is gratifying to those who have longed to see imports expand at the expense of home industries. What do the wage earners of America think of transferring the work across the waters?

SENATOR HILL SPEAKS.
Dccliirrh for "I'*ionul Liberty" ut a New York MUHK Meeting. New York, Oct. 24.—Senator Hill was the central figure in the great democratic mass meeting under the auspices ol the state committee which was held at Cooper union Wednesday night. Fred I?. Coudert acted as chairman and with a few complimentary remarks introduced Senator llill. The senator declared that the principles of the democratic party are so plain and explicit that they do not need to be avoided. "We have dodged nothing in the campaign and we are attempting to deceive 110 one. 1 we are right, we want to win if we are wrong, we deserve to be defeat .-d."
Speaking of the tariff bill enacted in 1S94 by the democrats,Senator Hill said: "Sufficient time has not elapsed to determine accurately whether its reductions were all wise or justifiable, but It is believed that in the end it will be proved that they were not unreasonable. It is possible that in the anxiety to relieve the people from the enormous tariff taxation, largely prohibitory in its character, imposed under the McKinley bill, the reductions were pressed too far, but that fact lias not yet been established."
As to the Sherman silver law the speaker said: "The democratic party may not nlways have acted with entire wisdom in regard to silver, but this much can be said, that It was not responsible for the Sherman silver law. That law was republican in its inception, In Its enactment and in its enforcement. The law had ceased, but its mischief remains, because there had been issued under its provisions 5150,000,000 of legal tender paper money, with substantially no available assets with which to redeem it, and which to-day is disturbing the treasury and embarrassing Its operations."
The senator devoted a considerable portion of his remarks to what he regarded as one of the principal issues involved in the campaign—viz: "Personal 1 iberty." Personal 1 iberty meant liberty regulated by law—reasonable law. Continuing, he said in part: "The democratic party has always been the consistent champior of personal liberty. It will not change Its attitude by reason of misrepresentations or the threats or tha boasts of purltanlsm. The persistent misconstruction of the Sunday provisions of the existing law and the difficulties of securing the same without long and expensive litigation render some additional legislation desirable. It may be that if the excise law waB enforced alike In all the municipalities of this state—enforced liberally, charitably and reasonably—there would be no necessity for new legisaltlon. ^The people demand It and popular sentiment should be respected in that regard. Upon this question the two parties have declared themselves. We have not said we favor the opening of saloons upon Sunday throughout the state, neither have we said we are opposed to it. We have simply declared that the people of each municipality Bhould be permitted to determine that question for themselves. This is a safe and just and a satfsfactory disposition of the question."
REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
National Committee to Meet to Fix Place mid Data for 11. •\ew York. Oct. 24.—lion. Thomas H. Carter, chairman of the republican national committee, has issued the following: "The republican national committee is 1. ere by called to meet at the Arlington hotel,Washington,at 2 o'clock p. m.,December 10,1S95, to designate a time and place for the meeting of the national convention in 1S36 and to transact such other business as may demand consideration."

The arrival of the Cincinnati and Morrow engines, however, saved the town. Loss, $40,000.
Killed Himself In Paris.
