FRIDAY, APRIL 2. 18H7

THE voice of the assessor will soon be heard in the land.

THK disposition on the part of the sugar trust to fight the new tariit' bill •will not weaken its popularity among the people.

THE Democratic party joined hands •with the 6Ugar trust in passing the "Wilson Gorman tariff law, and now the sugar trust joins with the Democrats in fighting the new Dingley tariff law. ,W"

THE indications are that the war at Terre Haute over thecollectorshipand the postoilice will temporarily come to an end by the appjintinent of Judge D. W. Henry to the former position and George M. Allen, editor of the Express, to the latter.

A JOINT resolution was introduced in Congress on Monday for the annexation of the Sandwich Iblands, to be known as the State of Hawaii. Before the present administration closes the Islands will be annexed, but more probably as a territory.

"IK the Democrats can not unite -upon the tariff, then upon what can they unite?" asns the Louisville Cour-ier-J ourt ia I. That paper is correct in thinking that unless its party gets together on this issue it will have to remain split.

THE unearthing of the rascalities among county oflieers in DeKalb county has led to a general demand throughout the State for an inquiry into county accounts. An honest investigation would doubtless reveal in many counties a seething pot of corruption.

A WASHINGTON special to the Indianapolis Journal says: "Frank Sice, of Crawfordsville, is in town, camping on the trail of one of the audiiorships of the treasury." There must be some mistake about this as Mr. Dice is at home in Crawfordsville and has not been near Washington.

THE April Century is a "Grant Memorial Number," signalizing- the dedication of General Grant's toiub. General Horace Porter, who was President of the citizens' association that raised the money for this magnificent memorial, and who will deliver the oration at the dedication, contributes an article descriptive of the tomb and of its building

THE editor of the Review of Reviews passes suggestive comment on the latest phases of the Greco-Turkish question. He holds that the only reasonable solution of the Cretan diiliculty is to place Crete definitely in the keeping of Greece. His theory is that Russia is playing .. waiting game, and that the other great powers are playing into her hands

THE quarrel in the Democratic ranks at Washington goes beautifully on. Some of them are making a per.unctory opposition to the tariff bill, while others have announced their intention to vote for it. It is to be observed that even those who are opposed to it have not offered any substitute They simply content themselves with playing the dog in the manger. One Democratic Congressman from Texas says the number of sheep in that State decreased 4.G91 000 in 18S4 to 2,140,889 in 1896. His vote, for this and similar reasons, will be cast for the new tariff.

THE sixteen-to-one silver proposition is evidently weakening, even in its most favored localities. A Denver paper, commenting upon the organization of the "Silver Republican" party, eays that there is no re-'son for such an organization, because the true friend of silver is the party which inaugurated its eighth President on the 4th of March last—the Republican party "It has,"says this paper, "done a great deal more for the si.ver West that the silver West has done for it. The Republican silver party is also the Eepublican gold party, and the Republican grain and cntton'party, if you like It is the party that gave to the United States a third of a century of •unprecedented-prosperity and progress, and again assumes triumphant sway and heralds the dawn of new and better things." This is good doctrine to come from Colorado, lbe birth place of the attempt to divide the Republican party on the silver issue

MORE MONEY REQUIRED. Those who are criticising the Dingley tariff bill on the grounds that it will raise too much revenue seem to forget th it it will require more money to run the country now than it required during the administration of President Harrison while the McKiuley law was in existence, not only because the country has grown in population and the demands-upon its public service during four years, but because the Democratic administration has fastened a new debt ot S202 000,000 and raised the annual iti charge over half, or312,127,184 ilie postal service has been enlarged within the last four years by laws which President Cleveland signed, and the naval service and many other branches of public business have been by law rendered more costly. In order to provide for the necessary expenses of government and for the Democratic increase of interest, the country requires a larger revenue than it re quired when President Cleveland wa elected. This can be said in favor of the bill aside from the feature of protection which is of equal importance with that of the question of revenue It will give employment to labor, and start anew the busy hum of industries and will bring a degree of happiness and prosperity to the people such as they enjoved under the McKinley law.

UNDER the new indeterminate-sen-tenca law in this State the right is taken from juries of determining the length of sentences, as well as the guilt of the prisoner, and leaves them only the power to decide his guilt or innocence. The court simply sentences a convict to prison or to the re formatory, stating at the time what the minimum and maximum period of punishment is for the crime, but it will impose no definite term. This will be decided later by the conduct of the prisoner himself and by the belief he awakens that his after life will be free from crime. Whether it will stand the test of the courts remains to be seen. Two years ago the Illinois Legislature enacted a similar law, but by a recent decision of the Supreme Court of that State the conclusion is reached that the law will ultimately be declared unconstitutional. The law in Illinois seems to be unpopular with the officers, as having a tendency to increase crime. The workings of the law in Indiana will be watched with interest.

THE Indianapolis News thinks the JOURNAL takes a "low view" in the matter of the. election of a State Librarian. It may be a "low view" to think that an inexperienced man is better qualified to discharge the duties of the office than an experienced woman, but its "low view" is right in line with the civil service idea, of whicl. the News is such an able champion—at times. Why apply the civil service rule to other departments and not to the State Library? As we understand it a librarian should be possessed of a technical knowledge coupled with experience that peculiarly fit him or her for the position. The appointee has neither, his only qualification being that he is a mugwump in politics, a virtue in the eyes of the •News. Of course he can learn the business, but it certainly would have been the proper thing for him to have served an apprenticeship and earned his promo tion. There is politics and politics, the politics of political parties and the politics of educational institutions, and the natural deduction of the appointment is that it had behind it the poli tics of the State institutions of which he is the creature/

As to Governor Mount's intentions to remove Dr Thomas from the Superiutendency of the Southern Insane Asylum for the reason that he drinks too much whisky and cites an ins am that on returning from a State coa vention he took twelve drinks bet ecu Terre Haute and Evansville, the Louisville Times, which is published in the State of Kentucky, is moved to remark: "The Governor should not be too critical. It is at least a two or three hours' ride from Terre Haute to Louisville, and it is not unfrequently the case that a fellow coming from a State convention needs a drink every ten minutes. We have had conventions in Kentucky of such a character that the man who escaped with bi6 life would have been justified in taking a drink every minute Indeed, Chairman Her ry, of the 1895 State convention, had to suspend the proceedings until he could "splice the main-brace" before a free silver candidate for Governor could be hoisted into position on the sound money platform Evidently the backwoods Chief Executive of our Hoosier neighbor has a great deal to learn yet concerning the hard conditions and requirements of practical statesmanship ,s

IF Congress had a few more such men as Henry U. Johnson it probabiy would be better for the country 1'iip people are with Mr Johnson in his fiery pro'est against the dawdling way that the public business is conducted. A Senate made up of such men uid be an ideal Senate

HOME-GrROWN STATESMEN

NATIVE HOOSIERS, SAVE ONE, REPRESENT INDIANA IN CONGRESS.

With Ono Kxoeptiou They Are All lawyers by Profession—Other Representatives Who Were Horn In Indiana—Mr. liyntitn** Visit to the White House—

National Gossip For Hoosier*.

From Our Special Correspondent. WASHINGTON, March 81.—Tho Indiana delegation in the Fifty-fifth congress is a crop of homegrown cteitcsmen. Every Hoosier member of the house is a native of the state from which he hails, excepting only Mr. Landis, who was born in Butler county, O., but who. so tradition goes, sailed lor Logansport on the first prairie schooner 'which passed his birthplace and has made up for liis early breach of judgment by the development of an unusually largo bump of state pride. Even the venerable Mr. Holman, who is in his 75th year, was born at a pioneer homestead called Veraestau, in Dearborn county. So far as the senatorial delegation is concerned, Ohio, which has contributed to Indiana so many of its leading men from the day General William Henry Harrison ruled the territory from the capital at Viuceiiiics, is still iu evidence. Mr. Fairbanks was 22 years old when he went from Cleveland to Indianapolis. It is also claimed that Senator Turpie is a nativo of Ohio, though he became a resident of Logansport in the 40's. It has been asserted that Mr. Turpie was born in England, but it cannot be claimed that there is any evidence of this in the senator's attitude toward Great Britain, as shown in recent public utterances. Mr. Turpie is not given to committing himself as to either the time or the place of his birth, being satisfied to be called a Hoosier and having no ambition to be looked upon as tho "father of tho senate."

It is interesting to note that every member of the Indiana delegation, again excepting only Mr. Landis, is a lawyer by profession, though Mr. Steele had his shingle hanging out at Hartford City but 10 days when he enlisted in the Eighth Indiana regiment on President Lincoln's first call for troops. All but three members of the delegation got their start in life as farmer boys. Seven are graduates of Indiana colleges—Mr. Miers of the State University, Messrs. Faris and Henry of Depauw, Mr. Johnson of Earlhani, Mr. Overstreet of Franklin, Mr. Landis of Wabash and Mr. Crumpocker of Valparaiso. Judtro Holman attended college for a time at Franklin and Majcr Steele was a student at the alma mater of Senator Fairbanks, Ohio Wesleyaii University at Delaware, O.

The Indiana man is proverbially a hustler in politics and has a faculty of "getting on" in whatever locality he may find himself. This is shown by the large number of ex-Iudianians now prominently before the public. Colonel John Hay, the new ambassador to the court of St. James, was born in Salem, Ind., and lived there until as a boy of 18 ho entered Brown University. While yet a young man lie became secretary to President Lincoln, and since that time he has been prominent in both politics and literature. While his home is nominally iu Cleveland, O., he lias long been a resident of the District of Columbia, where he lives iu a palatial home, and has devoted himself to leisure and lettors.

Among tho members of tho Fiftyfifth congress who were Indiana colonists of western states are Senator Wilson of Washington and Senator Spooner of Wisconsin. Senator Spooner was born at Lawrenceburg in 184:5, but emigrated from Dearborn county to Madison in 1S59. Ho is one of the most influeutial members of the senate and his popularity in his adopted state is evidenced by his almost unanimous election to that body. Senator Wilson was born in Crawfordsville in 1850, followed the Crawfordsville custom of graduating at Wabash college and represented Montgomery county iu the legislature in 1880. His appointment by President Arthur as receiver of public moneys at Spokane was tho beginning of his career in Washington politics. It will be remembered that Major W. H. Calkins, who was prominent in Indiana politics in the 80's, was also a formidable candidate for the senatorship iu that state. Mr. Wilson will make a strong effort to save himself from the fate of his colleague, Mr. Mitchell, who failed of re-election this winter, leaving Mr. Wilson to bear alone the honor of representing the state. vp

William R. Ellis, who represents tho Second Oregon district, is another Montgomery county product. He was born in Waveland in 1850, and went west at the nge of 21. Case Broderick, the Kansas Populist, was born iu Grant county in 1859. Charles Hartman of Bozeman, Mont., representative-at-large from that state, is a native of Monticello, who went west in 1882. Representative William Greene of Kearney. Neb., who came within a few votes of being elected senator from that state instead of Senator Allen, whose election he brought about, was born on a Pike county farm. He afterward lived in Dubois county and graduated from the academy at Ireland. Ind. In 187G he was admitted to the bar at Bloomington and moved from there to Nebraska only 14 years ago. Two members of tho Illinois delegation can claim tho honor of being Hoosiera. Andrew J. Hunter of Paris, Ills., was born in Greencnstio in 1831, and Joseph V.

Graf of Pekin. Ills.. is a native of Terre Haute and graduated from the high school there in 1870. Later he attended Wabash collcge. DeAlva Stamwood Alexander, who represents tho Buffalo, N. Y., district, formerly lived iu Indianapolis, where he studied law and formed a partnership with Hon. Stanton J. Peele. now a judge in the court of claims at Washington. Iu 1881 he was appointed fifth auditor of the treasury, and during his residence here wroto an entertaining series of Washincton letters for Indiana papers. Ou his retirement from tho treasury ho went to Buffalo and soon became district attorney for the northern district of Now York. He was elected to tho Fiftyfifth congress as a Republican by a majority or something liko 10,000.

W. D. Bynuin, the Indiana ex-con-gressman who served as chairman of the gold wing of the Democratic party during tho last campaign, and who was recently appointed by President Cleveland as one of the members of the commission to test the weight and fineness of coins at the United States mint at Philadelphia, has been in Washington. He was cordially received at the white house and was iu close consultation with President McKinley for some time. Whether he seeks preferment at the hands of tho administration is not known, but the Washington Post notes that "up to the present time President McKinley has not attempted to throw Mr. Bvnum down and force an office upon him."

Nearly all of the Indianians who were seeking office hero have followed Chairman Gowdy back to Indiana. Mr. Gowdy, who will sail for Paris on May G, will take with him as private secretary Mr. Maguire of Rushville, formerly secretary to Congressman Henry, and a bright and energetic young man. Mr. Gowdy is already consul general aud will receive tho salary during tho next six weeks, while his Indiana predecessor. Mr. Morss, receives tho fees. The salary attached to the office is §5,000 a year, and it is estimated that the fees will amount to as much more. The place is not the good thing it was in the days before Mr. Cleveland's order mado the sweeping reduction in consular incomes. A Washington paper got in its final shot at "Undo Jack" by remarking that there were only two towns ho thought worth living in—Paris, France, and Rushville, Ind.

Senator Fairbanks' postoffico mill, which is grinding out a daily grist of appointments, is choked with business, iu spite of the fact that live assistants are now employed. Tho mass of correspondence has almost overwhelmed the junior senator, bur he is endeavoring to get postoffico matters settled as soon as possible, in order that lie may devote some time to more important duties. Several of tho retiring Republican congressmen offered to assume the responsibility of appointments in their districts, provided their decision should be regarded as final. To this tho senator would not agree, and eStered upon a job which is apparently fully as large as he expected it to be.

It was Representative Overstreet's measure, providing for the payment of pensions by checks instead of in person, which paved the way for President Cleveland's recent order abolishing the Detroit pension agency and combining it with that at Indianapolis. One of President McKiuley's first acts was to appoint a pension agent for Detroit. Whether ho will lose his place when the proposed change is made is a question of some interest to ex-Representa-tive J. D. Leighty of St Joe, who now seems beyond doubt to be slated for the Indianapolis agency, having been summoned to Washington last week by Senator Fairbanks, who will likely coutrol the appointment. Tho place is worth $4,000, aud is one of the most desirable plums which will fall into Indiana hands.

"Hod" Pugh of Terre Haute, a son-in-law of Hon. W. R. McKeen, who was at one time in the consular service, has been in Washington, but contradicts the inevitable suspicion that he seeks a place. Mr. Pugii thinks that if the postoffice and collectorship situation at Terre Haute gets much warmer Governor Mount may have to call out the troops, or "Teddy" Roosevelt, who settled a postoffice unpleasantness there a few years ago, may be called on again. Congressman Faris returned from the Fifth district apparently unscathed, but wearing a worried look.

Representative James M. Robinson of Fort Wayne delivered his maiden speech in the house during the tariff debate. Mr. Robinson is one of the best examples of the selfmade men iu the present house. He began life as a newsboy iu Fort W ayno and at lobecame a mechanic and undertook the support of his mother. While working at his trade he studied law and in 1881 he entered the law office of Judge Walpole G. Colerick, then iu congress. I" 1886 he was elected prosecuting attoi ney of Allen county, since which time ho has been prominent tne politics of Northern Indiana.

Indiana cigarmakers are sending in protests against the tobacco schedule of the Dingley bill. They believe that the tariff imposed will tend to throw the business entirely into the hands of the large concerns which employ cheap labor. Mr. Steele, the Indiana member of the committee, stood out to tho last against this feature of the bill. The tobacco industry is represented by a number of establishments in every city in the state, and it is probable that the pressure brought to bear will result in the amendment of tho measure in this particular, if not in the house then iu the senate, in spite of the efforts of tobacco growers to secure the retention c.f this item.
