FRIDAY. MARCH 12. 1807.

Tun first of May is the time fixed by Secretary of State Owen for the printing1 and distribution of the acts of the late General Assembly. This will be several weeks earlier than usual.

TIIE House made no mistake when it named llenry C. Pettit, of Wabash, as its Speaker. Lie proved to be the right man in the right place. Corrupt lobbyists soon learned that they had no friend at court.

INDICATIONS point to the appointment of A. S. Peacock, editor of the Attica Ledger, as Collector of Internal Revenue for the Western District of Indiana with headquarters at Terre Haute. It is said that Senator Fairbanks has endorsed his recommendation.

WABASH CpLi.KGE is to be congratulated over the termination of the Fayorweather will contest whereby it will come into possession of §150,000, its share of the residue of the estate. This will make a total of §200,000 received by the college from the millionaire leather merchant.

IT is a good deal for the Indianapolis News, a paper that is generally of the opinion that everything and everybody are wrong, always excepting of course, its own egoustical self, for it to say that "In spile of the mistakes and omissions of tho Legislature, we believe that its record will command the approval of the people of the State."

Till". Indianapolis Journal pays Governor Mount the following well merited compliment:

In the distribution of credit for the successful wiudup of the legislative session it should not be forgotten that Governor Mount contributed to the result in no small degree by the industry, alertness and intelligence with which lie disposed of the measures sent to hiin in the last houss. If he had failed in his duty at this critical juncture or bungled the work the record of the session might have been seriously marred, but he was entirely equal to the situation and made no mistakes.

THE merchant tailors are quite right in demanding protection against foreign clothing imported by Americans who travel abroad. If American cloth, made by American tailors, is good enough for President McKinley to wear, then it ought to be good enough for any other American citizen. Those who think otherwise should be compelled to pay, in custom duties, dollar for dollar of the value of the good they import. The same law should apply to foreign wines, foreign cigars, and all other such fads and fancies as well as to foreign clothing. Let us be Americans under an American administration.

A POPULIST legislator sn Kansas has introduced a bill incorporating the Ten Commandments as part of the statutory law of the State. His law ailixes penalties for violations of the Commandments in proportion as his Populistic brain sizes up the offense. For having another God he provides a fine of $1,000 for making a graven image, a similar fine with one year in the penitentiary added for taking the name of the Lord in vain and not keeping the Sabbath, a fine of §500 for not honoring parents, six months in prison and a fine of S500: for murder, hanging for adultery, imprisonment for life, and for breaking the other Commandments, fines and imprisonment in the discretion of the court.

THE new building and loan law does away with the expense fund, fixes a maximum membership fee, taxes paidup and prepaid stock, provides for full withdrawals, and casts minor safeguards about the investments of stockholders in these associations. While in some associations the expense fund privilege was not abused, yet this was the main source of evil iu what are called national associations, and the honestly conducted associations can therefore afford to dispen-e with this fund for the sake of preserving the building association idea and wiping! out of existence these stock-jobbi ng and speculative concerns. The new] law will have the hearty approval of all local afcsociations throughout the State. 1

UEET SUGAR IN NEBRASKA. Thomas 11. Cutler, manager of the Lehigh sugar factory, Utah, has just made a report of the operations for the season. It shows that in 135 days the factory has sliced 43,200 tons of beets and turned out 4,500 tons tons of sugar, the bulk of {..which has been sold in Utah, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming, the prices being the lowest ever known in America. For these 43 2u0 tons of beets the farmers in the immediate vicinity of the Lehigh factory received S3 per ton, or, in the aggregate 8215,000. These surprising, but gratifying results, show that Congress should lose no time in giving encouragement, in some form, to the beet sugar industry in this country. Nothing would do more for the relief of our now depressed agricultural pursuits than to have the United States manufacture all its own sugar and keep at home the 5120,000,000 now yearly sent abroad for foreign sugar. In European countries large bounties have been paid for beet sugar, but the people have been greatly benefited, both by the reduced pricetof sugar and the new demand made for labor in the culture of beets, nnd in the numerous beet sugar factories which have sprung up, in great numbers, under the policy of governmental assistance to this new industry.

IN an article discussing the "Growth of Sound Financial Opinion," Gunton's Mfiijuzinc for March says:

The essential features of the monetary reform to be obtained, viz: the retirement of all government legal tender notes, the provision for greater elasticity and flexibility of our currency, and the constant subjection of all paper money to current redemption in full value standard coin, is becoming generally recognized by the leading journals, statesmen, business men and bankers in short, by the consensus of competent opinion throughout the country. Indeed, there has never before been such encouraging signs of wholesome financial opinion in this country, since the overthrow of the bank of the United States. The evidence of a general growth of an approximately uniform opinion on the essential principles of finance are gratifying, in the fact that sentiment is not peculiar to any class or political party, or geographical section of the country. The leading commercial bodies and influential papers in all sections of the country are steadily coming in line with thissound money movement, The national character of the movement was conspicuously indicated iu the Indianapolis convention which represented every State in the Union, and both great political parties.

WHAT is known as tho anti-quart shop bill is merely amendatory of the act of 187"). 11 simply strikes out th« words "i.i less quantities than a quart at a time," and abolishes tho distinction between the license fee for selling spirituous liquors and only vinous and malt liquors. Heretofore a saloon keeper only paid S50 for a license to sell only vinous or malt liquors. Now there is no distinction. Everybody must pay S100. Wholesale dealers are alone exempt and they cannot sell less than five gallons. There is nothing in the law to prevent druggists from filling prescriptions. It is just the same as the present law. The provisions of the law being understood they will commend themselves to all good citizens, and will be the means of abating the quart shop nuisance with which every town and village in the State is cursed. The law is now in force and the attention of the authorities in this city is respectfully called to the dives at the Monon station and in the classic precincts of Goose Nibble.

UPON the whole the Legislature which has just adjourned has been one of the most industrious bodies which the State has had for many years. Unlike several of its predecessors it can pass into history with blessiugs, not curses, on its head. It enacted many good and wholesome laws, and prevented the enactment of several bad measures. A Legislature should sometimes be measured by what it does not do as well as by what it does. It is largely to the credit of the body which has just expired that it killed many needless, freakish and some of them vicious, bills. No positively bad bill was enacted into law, although a few came dangerously near it. A few might just as well have been indefinitely postponed. The positively good largely overbalances the mildly harmless, and therefoie the Sixtieth General Assembly passes out of existence with the encomiun, "well done.''

EFFORTS are being made to sell the Government for £50,00" the p.r'u of 112 acres near Hodgenville, Ky on which Abraham Lincoln was born. The present owner of the property is a citizen of New York, who bought it not many years ago for 83,000. The little one-room log cabin which for a time served as Thomas Lincoln's home stands to-day practically as it was in lS0'.» butit contains no furniture or other relies dating anywhere near bacu to that vear.

IT is said that tlie general appropriation bill is the most economical that has passed the Legislature in ten yearn, thanks to Hon H. Wilson Smith, the indefatigable watch-dog chairman of the House Ways and Means Commit tee. Mow refreshing it wouid be to nave an entire Legislature made up of such men as Smith and Pettit Of course these men had ubie assistants.

TOWNSHIP TRUSTEE HILT,. One of the most salutary bills enacted into law by the present Legislature, and one which came near the verge of defeat, b.it which was rescued at the last moment, was the bill providing for the auditing of township warrants by the Board of Commissioners. A strong lobby of school supply men used every means both fair and foul to kill the measure in the last hours of the session but their efforts proved fruitless. The margin in the vote by which it passed was not as deep as a well nor as wide as a barn door, 54 for to 37 against, yet this was sufficient. Tne Governor clinched it by atlixing his signature in approval. The new law constitutes the county commissioners aboard to audit the warrants of the township trustees of the county. It requires them to meet the first Tuesday in each month and audit these warrants, examining them and satisfying themselves that they are legitimate and proper expenditures, and that 'the goods thus purchased have been delivered and are as represented. The commissioners are required to report to the Circuit Court, and all disputed warrants are tried by the court. The law permits any taxpayer to recover for the county twice the amount of a fradulent warrant and attorney's fees and expenses for himself in addition from the bondsmen of the trustee. It is needless to say that the school supply lobby left the State House Monday with hearts all broken up.

COI.ONEI, WATTHRSON is in despair regarding the fate of the Democratic party. With intense solemnity he declares that "a whole tierce of goose grease will not suflice" to save it.

A FAT PLUM.

AV. V. Sliiirji,of this City, A^pointed Arrliiteet for Ihe Improvements at the Northern Prison.

The Indiana State Prison Board met Tuesday at the Denison House, Indianapolis, to decide upon an architect to carry out about 875,000 worth of improvements appropriated by the Legislature. Architects from Lafayette, Fort Wayne, Indianapolis and thiscity were in the contest. After duly canvassing the matter, the board unanimously agreed to the appointment of Architect W. F. Sharpe, of this city, who prepared the comprehensive report on the prison last full and upon whose estimate the appropriation was made. Mr. Sharp is already so thoroughly conversant with the problem to begin the work without delay •and will next week go to Michigan City to direct the tearing down of the chapel preparatory to the construction of a new one on a safe plan. The work will be planned and directed mainly from thiscity.

(ioveiiior Mount'* lOstiniate. Governor Mount bays concerning the session of the General Assembly just closed: "It has been an industrious and a good Legislature, and I believe that the judgment of the public will be that its servants have done the public business well. There have been a number of excellent laws passed, some that were not so good, but, on the whole, the work isof a high character. There were some measures that I would like to see passed that were not, notably the bill throwing greater safeguards around the collection of road tax from the railroads. As that business is conducted now, the State gets vary little of this money. There was a good bill regulating this matter passed by the House,butit did not get through the Senate. I notified the Senate that 1 would wait for it and accept this bill if it wouid pass it, but it decided that if it opened the gate for this one bill, it would be unable to shut off the Hood of bills that were waiting a chance."

A Cloud Firm.

The Frankfort Times commenting on the JOURNAL'S statement relevant to the removal of Shafer fc Company's wholesale grocery to this city says: "The Times is sorry to say that the statement is substantially correct. At least the probabilities are very strong that the firm will move to the Hoosier Athens. Frankfort will suffer no small loss in this removal. The firm is composed of business men of first class ability aud personally very popular. The house was opened right in the midst of the panic yet it enjoys the distinction of having increased its business every month of its existence. The Times does not hesitate to recommend W. M. Shafer & Co. to the favorable consideration of Crawfordsville grocerymen.

A Sensation For Tully.

Tully Crabos was caught in southern Ijdiana by the floods and had a severe time of it for several days. On Tuesday, however, the E and T. IJ. trains were running, so he came up from Terre Haute on the train which left Evansville at 12:48 Wednesday. He got through all right, but on reaching home had a sensation when he learned that the south-bound Nashville ilyer, which his train had passed between

Terre Haute and Vineennes, had gone througn the White River bridge below Vmcenries The train on which Tully rode was the last one to cross the bridge and had done so onl} about an hour bt-fore the ill-fated train went down. j.

A SPLENDID RECORD

PASSAGE OF SEVERAL IMPORTANT AND VALUABLE MEASURES.

Prison Reform, Labor Laws, Compulsory Education, ItuiMini and Loan and Othor Measures Mark tho Work of an

Intelligent Majority—l'ruisn of Members Who Wore Active In the Interest of the People*

Bpecial Correspondence. INDIANAPOLIS, March 10.—Tho general assembly has closed it work and it will go down in history as one of tho best Indiana has ever hud. There were iu it a few corrupt men, as thoro arc in every legislature—aud neither party had a monopoly of them—but their iuflueneo was very slight, and if they got auy private schemes through that wero not proper it was because tho majority did not know what tho bills contained. Tho majority of the members worked very industriously in tho effort to understand every bill. Occasionally, however, a bill that looks perfectly innocent upon its face will havo an effect undreamed of by any body else than those immediately interested in getting it through. It is possible that among tho bills passed are two or three of this character. One that I recall was entirely innocent on its face, giving a poor person tho right to contest a will without filing a bond. Not until long after it had been passed did anybody understand that Senator Newby had introduced it in order that tho alleged heirs, for whom ho is one of the attorneys, could undertake to break tho Ilerron will by which a large sum of money was bequeathed to the Indianapolis Art association. Every effort to get through a "steal" was usually knocked in tho hoad in which ever house it happened to be discovered. When any such did slip through, however, Governor Mount was waiting in his office with an ax, and he had no hesitation about using it. There wero a few people about tho legislature iu whom tho governor had much confidence, and he had asked them to keep a closo eye out for legislation that they regarded as vicious aud notify liim. When bills upon which tips of tiiis sort came to him he did not take tho word of his informer that they wero bad, but made extra efforts to fully investigate their purposo and probable effect. I venture the assertion there has not been in 20 years a legislature in which less of vicious or worthless legislation was enacted. ,. •.,! a

If tho assembly wero to be judccd simply by its negative work, in refusing to counreliance many things presented to it, would be judged a good body. Hut its record in positive legislation is even better. Its apportionment bill, its building and loan law, its antitrust law. its general medical law, if child labor law, its labor arbitration law, its eompulsorv education law all mark the record of a body of industrious, intelligent aiki upright men. Hut more important then any of these, I believe, is the work that this body has accomplished iu tho way of prison reform. It converted the prison south into a reformatory, to bo governed along the lines of tho best modern thought and experiment on urison reform. It passed an indeterminate sentence bill, making the term of imprisonment depend largely upon the conduct of tho prisoners. Its most important work in prison reform was the passage of the contract labor bill, which abolishes the contract system in the prisons and provides for the absorption of prison made goods by state institutions, thus taking them out of competition with free labor iu the open markets. The appropriations made were oven more economical than those of two years ago, and a bill was passed establishing such a thorough system of public accounts that hereafter tho people of the state will be able to know precisely what becomes of tho money appropriated to state institutions and the various state departments.

The list of labor legislation mentioned above is worth a chapter in itself. The arbitration bill is a great and intelligent step forward toward an end of costly labor disputes. It is voluntary in its nature and imposes no hardship upon either side. The child labor bill prevents the employment of children under 14 years iu factories, regulates the employment of older children aud female labor, throws great safeguards about factory employes, and provides for a system of factory inspection to see that the law is enforced. Tho abolition of the contract system in the prisons was something that organized labor hardly hoped to be able to get through. It removes tho disastrous competition of prisonmade goods, and does it without loss to the state or injury to tho discipline of the prison. Asido from these, the miners of the state succeeded in getting through a number of measures for their bettor protection. Yet this legislature did not contain a single agitator. The only members of organized labor in the body wero Messrs. Hubbard and Hicks in the liouso and Senator Johnson in the senate. Nono of them were in any senso labor agitators, but simply sensible men who went about their business and earned the friendship of tho members. In tho liouso .Mr. Jernegan, not a laboring man, but the editor of a country paper, was tho most active in getting labor measures through, and the child labor bill and that abolishing tho prison contract system bear liis name. Mr. lloo.se, Mr. Henderson and Dr. Thornton in the house and Senator Horner were also active iu pushing labor measures. '4 9

Mr. Pettit has unquestionably made tho best speaker tho house of representatives has had in a number of years. Utterly fearless in everything, ho was as honest as ho was fearless, aud when his influence was cast in favor of any measure it was usually a good

measure. This was not done from the ehair. Tliero his rulings were impartial. But ho represented a constituency, and as such representative ho felt at liberty to go upon the floor aud speak for or against a moasuro. This occurred bur, seldom and only upon measures of large importance whero he felt that the reputation of the house was involved. His training at Annapolis gave him a preciseness and a coolness that stood him well in hand on a great many occasions in tho chair. Ho was never hurried or flurried for a moment, but his rulings were always clear and logical aud made in a clean 'ait fashion that carried convictionjis to their correctness. «t

During the early stages of tho session there was some ouestion as to who was the Republican leader on the floor, but the latter days, when the important business was done, demonstrated the fact unmistakably that Mr. Nicholson held that position. He goes out of this legislature with a very different reputation among average Republicans than followed him two years ago. They could not get. over the idea then that ho was simply "a temperance crank" and nothing more. Time lias vindicated the wisdom of the measure that bears his name, and the enormous inflnenco he has exerted in behalf of good legislation iu this session is recognized by everybody who has observed the legislature from day to day. Always moderate and careful in his statements, ho has impressed the house as being thoroughly honest in his views. Ho has also an enormous capacity for work and a persistency of purpose that make him a winner. One of tho surprises of tho session has been tho zealous Republican partisanship ho has shown during tho session. As chairman of the "steering committee" ho has been unfailing in his efforts to push through such measures as had been adopted by tho Republican caucus, and this was no easy job with the extremely narrow majority the Republicans had on tho floor and tho difficulty ahvays experienced iu keeping members in their seats. «a

There was a little more horse play in tho house than is usual at tho end of tho session. Members always indulge moro or less in tossing of phamplets, howling each other down and acting like schoolboys at tho end of each session, but that sort of thing is usually reserved for the last day, when tho assembly can transact, no business except upon messages from the governor. The fact that it began a day or so earlier this year wa* due to the fact that the liouso had finished with all the important measures and, except for the necessity of concurring in tho appropriation bill, it had finished all tho work it cared to do by noon of Saturday. There were still some bills pending that wero regarded of gr-iat impo.tfauee by those interested in them, but the house did not want to pass them. Among these was tho measure ro give county clerks and sheriffs aper diem, addition to their salaries. Had this ever come up it would have been defeated in the house, but it was simply crowded out. "A 'a. 'a

The only point OL general regret about the session is the fact that it was compelled to waste so much time over the Indianapolis street railroad light. Hut it did the right thing on tho streetcar bills, and tho people of Indianapolis havo reason to be eternally grateful to it tor freeing them from the bondage they have endured for years iu the mattor of streetcar franchises. &•*»»»

Down in the nort heast, corner of the house, to the left of the speaker, sat during the session a bunch of members who havo given to that section of the house the name of ''Honesty Corner." In the front seats wero Messrs. Habcoek and Canada, immediately behind them Messrs. Harlow and Knepper and in the next seat Mr. Hlankenship. These men very seldom if ever went, wrong on any propoition. .Most of tlieni fortunately came near the head of tho roll, and thus tho voting on all questions usually started out right whether it ended right or not. All these wero industrious and valuable members. It was hard to fool them about tho provisions of auy bill, and thev had tho habit of making UD their minds about it unaided bv suggestions from tho outside. Of those Mr. Blankonship was most frequently on the floor. Ho had a rapid, vehement method of speaking that sometimes brought cries of "louder," usually from the Democratic side, whero ho was hated because he is an intenso Republican. But th fact remains that Mr. Blankenship was the most active man in tho house in watching for little schemes and steals and in seeing that they were smashed.

Mr. Canada was another of this group who occasionally talked. He is a keen lawyer and could not bo fooled upon any legal proposition. Ho was always dead iu earnest when he talked aud impressed tho house with his sincerity. Mr. Babcock talked but seldom, but when he did it was to the point and what ho said never failed to carry weight. Mr. Barlow aud Dr. Knepper were on the floor exceedingly seldom, but it would be difficult to find a rollcall where their votes were not recorded on the right side. «FT 3*

Governor Mount has- earned the thorough respect of the legislature, as he has of the people of Indiana. He used tho veto power sparingly, because most of the measures passed wero honest and proper bills, but the members understood thoroughly well that ho would have no hesitancy iu using it when measures did not meet his approval. In bin ono instance was ho shown at a disadvantage. This was when tho metropolitan police bill came before him. It w.as a caucus measure and vet'it was upon a principle that ho did not approve. It slipped through the caucus without anybody paying any particular attention to it, and had the governor's viows on tho matter been generally understood,I doubt very much whether the caucus would ever have taken it up.
