THE

Japanese dropped the old ratio

oi 10 to 1 without a hit of sentiment, and made the new ratio 32 to 1 without any speeches predicting' national ruin.

THE Democrats are now admitting that they had last fall the largest campaign fund that the Democratic party ever distributed in a political campaign. And everybody knows that the silver ring put it up.

THE report of the Massachusetts highway commission 6hows that last year forty-Feyen miles of modern highway were built, making the total amount of completed State roads 101 miles. The commission wants an appropriation of §800,000 for the work this year.

THERE were no fewer than twelve good roads bills before the legislatures 'of as many different States during the winter, and in all the bills the creation of a State highway commission is provided for. This show6 that the continued discussion of better roads is leading to an era of action.

WOOL, wheat and corn, those three staple agricultural products, are feeling the effect of renewed confidence and renewed prosperity which have followed the inauguration of McKinley. The standard commercial authorities report higher prices for wool, wheat and flour, and other articles of agricultural production, and show that the wheat and llour exportations of the week just ended are greater than those of the corresponding week of -last year, and those of corn three times as great as those of the corresponding week of last year. The farmers of the country are finding no occasion for regret that they voted for McKinley and prosperity.

IN naming a new board of control for the Southern Insane Hospital at livansvilla Governor Mount has disappointed several politicians but doubtless has satisfied his own conscience, lie has adhered to the policy so often proclaimed by Republicans in their platforms that our benevolent institutions should not be made the football of political parties but that they bhould be made to conserve the best interests of the institutions themselves and thereby the interests of the people of the State. Governor Mount evidently believes that the Republican platform mean1- more that a mere contrivance to get in on. lie believes that it means a policy that should be faithfully carried into execution.

THE divisions in the Democratic ranks are as strongly marked on the tariff question as they were in the currency discussions of last fall. The recent debates iu Congress have shown a very rapid growth of protection sentiment among the Democrats and a growing hostility to the extreme freetrade and free-raw-material views of the Cleveland wing of the party. Numbers of Democrats declare their hostility to the free-trade theories of Cleveland, Wilson, et al., while others denounce in their speeches the free-raw-tnaterial proposition, a few of the most independent thinkers going so far as to vole for the Dingley bill, although their parly associates had denounced it as the most radical tariff measure ever offered in Congress, not excepting the McKinley law

OKMOCKAT.S in Congress and elsewhere are greatly disappointed with the sugar schedule of the Dingley tariff bill as well as other features They are especially disappointed regarding the sugar schedule as they are unable to find in it any opportunity to charge that the bill is advantageous to or in the interest of trustb. They remetn ber with great bitterness the fact that their own law which now stands upon the statute bonks, was condemned by the public genera l.v as framed in the interests of the sugar trust, and they had tioped to find some opportunity to make a similar charge against the

Dingley bill, bul in this they have absolutely failed, and those of them who are frank enon^h to confess the truth admit that it wipes out lie a! vantages which the sugar trust has e. ,y.-d under the present Democratic Uw

A PARALLEL CASK.

"For want of a nail tli.- ti-rse lost his snoe—for want of a dmc tiie horse became lame and could not tr*vel for wanl of a horsM that could travel, the rider.wtts overtaken by his ene-

-i

mies and Blain." Such is the old story of poor .Richard. And now, for the want of a shovel full of gravel at the proper time a deep mud hole was worn in the gravel road—on account of the mud holes the teamster's wagon stalled, the harness was broken, and the teamster failed to get his produce to market in time to fulfill his contract, and lost the profits of his bargain, besides the damage done to his harness. All for the lack of a shovel full of gravel which could have been put on the road at the cost of a few pennies. But there was no one to put on the shovel full of gravel.

TO MUCH BOSSISM.

The result of the municipal elections held this week in Cincinnati, Chicago and elsewhere, where Democratic victories have generally been recorded, cannot be construed to mean a reversal of the principles of the Republican party in a national sense, but they can be construed to mean a rebuke to what is termed boss rule. There had grown up in all these large cities, largely the outgrowth of big majorities, political machines which undertook the task of ruling the party as with a rod of iron. This machine set up the primaries and named the ticket to be nominated regardless of the wishes and desires of the masses of the party. The rank and file chafed under this dictatorial method of running the party machinery. They felt that while ieaders were desirable, they had no use for bosses. The result should serve as a warning to the managers of the party everywhere. Even in the rural districts the people are growing restless under the dictation of men who exercise more or less the province of a city boss. In the machinery of a political party leadership is necessary, and this fact the masses recognize. But there is a great difference between leadership and bossism. People can and are willing to be led, but they rebel when a boss undertakes to drive them."

TIIE HIGHER PURPOSE. In closing an article on the need of integrity in the tariff discussion Gunton's Magazine for April, after showing the shortcomings both of the tariff laws of 1890 and 1894, has this to say of the higher purpose of protection:

The object of statesmanship, and hence of protection, is to promote the social and political develop nent of the nation. This does not depend so much on the mere price of commodities as upon the character ol occupations. National development is impossible without manufactures, commerce and general urbanizing industries. Agriculture, mining, forestry and ruraliz ing industries necessarily have a stereotypic and de-socializing influence upon the people, aud hence a stultifying influence upon civilization. History does not record a single instance of a nation making great progress in civilization, cu lure and freedom, which was dominated by ruralizing in dustries—witness the backward countries in Europe. Africa, Asia and South America. Where manufactures nourish wealth accumulates, culture spreads freedom increases and civilization advances. We want .progress in all the phases of higher civilization more than we want'clieap things. The very object and justification of a pro teciive policy, whether it be in restricting immigration, increasing popular education, or in a custom's tariV is to promote the development of higher social and political life in the nation. For this we need to increase the proportion of artistic industries as compared with ruralizing industries.

Gossip from tlio National Capital.

From Our Special Correspondent. WASHINGTON, April 7.—The Dingley bill having been sent over to the senate (when aud in what condition to return no one can tell) and tlxe house having adopted a policy of meeting aud adjourning every three days during the interim, a number of the Indiana congressmen have returned home, the Democratic members to enjoy a season of rest and recuperation after the struggle over the tariff bill and tho Republicans to wrestle with warring factions over local patronage. The Republican members will be in and out, pursuing the few places iu sight at the departments and helping to maintain a respectable attendance in the house, but the Democratic members will have nothing to call them to Washington until the tariff bill comes back to tho house. The Iudiaua members divided exactly on party lines in the vote on the bill. Three of tho Democratic members, Zenor, Robinson and Holman, and two of the Republican members, Steele aud Johnson, participated in tho debate. Mr. Johnson had more objections to the bill than any member on the Republican side. The member from the "Burnt district" has ideas of his own on every subject, which he expresses without reserve on the floor of tho house, and he declared in tlio closing hours of the debate that were he not convinced that the senate would amend the measure materially he would vote against it. On another occasion ho called it "a crude measure."

Harry Furniss, the English cartoonist, referred to Mr. Johnson in a recent article in a New York newspaper as "Henry Rapidtalker Johnson," and ho is all of that, for when tho belligerent member from the Quaker city turns loose in earnest he is the despair of the official reporters. He has an unusual facility of expression, and when his ire is aroused, as is often the case, his sarcasm is something which members prefer to avoid. The scene in the house three or four years ago, when Mr. Johnson shouted defiance at a southern member until hostilities seemed imminent, is well remembered. None the less exciting was the incident, during the last day of the Dingley bill debate, when Mr. Johnson arose to protest at the continuance of the discussion at a time when he was anxious to introduce some amendments to tho measure. Mr. Slierman, who was in the chair, and with whom Mr. Johnson has previously had some sharp controversies, attempted to shut off his objections. Mr. .Johnson, with rising anger, held tho floor in spite of the chairman's merciless mauling of the speaker's desk and commands to take his seat. Tho chairman of the committee of the whole has no authority to invoke the aid of the sergeant-ac-arms, and the house was soon in a turmoil, above which rose the voice of the member from Indiana,, demanding his rights. Chairman Sherman, declaring his inability to quell tho disturbance, announced that tiio committee would rise, and sent for Speaker Reed. A moment later the doois flew open and the bulky form of the speaker appeared. Instantly the house was in order, the attitude of Mr. Johnson had changed aud he was explaining, in a dispassionate way. tho origin of the difficulty. As illustratiiii.' the unusual power of Sneaker Koed tho incident was remarkable,

"Tho episode reminded rne," said Congressman Landis to your correspondent, "of an incident which happened while I was a boy attending country school over in Butler county, O. Wo had an unusually unruly school and they sent us a teacher that could lick the biggest boy in it, and wasn't at all averse to doing it on the slightest provocation. Nevertheless we decided to make him 'treat' at Christmas time, and on the day in question when he stepped outside to ring the bell at recess, the boys who had remained inside shut and bolted the door. We were having a real good noisy time inside, waiting until the master should get sufficiently frostbitten to beg for terms. To our great astonishment ho simply walked out into the road, picked up a 'darnick' as big as his head, sent it crashing through the door aud then calmly walked in through the hole. There was a general subsidence of disorder and a rush for seats which I have never seen so perfectly reproduced as when Speaker Reed stalked upon tlio floor of tho house iu the midst of the confusion created by Mr. Johnson's outbreak."

Mr. Jesse AYeik of Greencastle, who assisted Mr. Herndon in the compilation of his "Life of Lincoln," called at white house a few days ago. Mr. Weik was for a time considered a candidate for the revenue collectorship of the Terre Haute district, but is now thought to be seeking restoration iu the postal service, he having been an inspector during the Harrison administration. Mr. Weik brought with him an interesting Lincoln relic, which was presented to him by Mr. Hero don, the law partner und intimate friend of the martyr president. It was the notebook which Mr. Lincoln used during his famous scries of debates with Douglass, containing many newspaper clippings touching upon the great'questions debated and notes in Lincoln's handwriting.

g|The fight over the Sixth district revenue collectorship, by the way, has been about the most interesting bit of political warfare developed by the struggle for patronage in Indiana-, with Nicholas R. Filbeck. who is vice chairman of the Republican state committee, and Judge David W. Henry as the principals. Colonel "Dick" Thompson made a personal appeal to President McKinley in behalf of Judge Henry, and now ,t appears that there is )Vracfi-:iily uo noal-t conecrninsr his appointment. iienrv

arrived on the scene Friday evening ana is satisfied that he will be appointed. Al Higgins, president of the Indiana Lincoln league, was here to second his efforts. Another Terro Hautenn who is here in his own interests is George Allen, editor of the Terro Haute Express, who was one of Mr. McKeen's most prominent supporters in hi6 fight for the senatorship. Mr. Faris has been awaiting the settlement of the collectorship before making an appointment to the postmastership at Terre Haute, which Editor Allen is after. His principal opponent is Frank Benjamin, chairman of the Vigo county Republican central committee. '••!•••••.

Colonel Holloway seems to have better staying powers than any of the Other Indiana candidates, for he is still in Washington waiting. The president has told tho colonel, however, that he will be taken care of wheu tho time comes to award consulships. "Hod" Pugh of Terro Haute, who was here the other day, wants the consulship of Havre, France, a very comfortable place. He is a son-in-law of Riley McKeen, and it is understood that the only request which the ex-president of the Vaudalia will make of his successful opponent for the senatorship will be Mr. Pugh's appointment. John W. O'Hara of Peru, president of the Indiana Hibernians, who was exceptionally effective on the stump during the last campaign and who would like to be consul to Belfast, found 35 applications on file for that place at tho state department.

When Francis T. Roots of Connorsville called'bn President McKinley the other day to disclose his ambition to be United States treasurer he proved his claim to being an original McKinley man by showing the president a clipping from a New York Tribune over two years old in which Mr. Roots, over his own signature, advocated the nomination of Mr. McKinley and predicted his triumphant election. Having witnessed the effect of this bit of prophecy on the appointing power, Mr. Roots went over to tho treasury and called on Mr. Morgan, whom he hopes to succeed.

Mrs. Fairbanks, who has made a wide circle of friends during her short stay here, found Washington hotel life not at all to lier liking, aud has returned to Indianapolis for the spring and summer. Later iu the year tho senator will buy or lease a house in Washington. Senator Fairbanks was a guest at an interesting dinner which was given at the white house the other evening in honor of Mrs. McKee, who with her children has been visiting friends in Washington Mrs. Hastings, who was lady of the white house during part of the Hayes administration Mrs. Garfield and Mrs. Grant. The other guests were Senator Fairbanks. General Miles, Senator Foraker and Secretary Bliss. CongressuPMi Steele was one of the guests at a "stag dinner" given at the white house oil Friday evening.

It is generally conceded that General Foster, the Evansville savant, will be tendered an •important foreign mission. As minister to China Gleneral Foster could render the United States invaluable service, for his influence at the Chinese court is greater than that of any other foreigner, as was shown by his selection as one of tho representatives of the Chinese government iu the peace negotiations with Japan after the late war, a service for which he received, it is said, nearly 8100.000. He has been talked of in connection with the Turkish mission, but it is claimed that ho would not accept the post unless it should be raised to the rank of an ambassadorship. In a lecture on Hawaii, delivered before a large audience the other evening, General Foster enthusiastically advocated the annexation of that republic, a position which has attracted much attention in view of tho impending effort to secure the indorsement of the plan by the present administration.

Joseph I. Irwin, the well known Columbus politician, came to Washington to protest against tin appointment of Mr. Stevens as postmaster at Columbus, which Senator Fairbanks has recommended. There have been several instances where an attempt has been made to overrule senatorial or congressional recommendations of postoilice candidates, notably, that of Mr. Durbin and Mr. Gowdy to reverse Mr. Henry's decision at Anderson, but all have ended and will end where Mr. Irwin's did, in failure. There have been a few instances where presidents have "turned down" congressmen and senators in such matters, but, tiiey are few and far between. They will be especially few under the present administration, for Mr. McKinley's long career as a congressman has made him especially punctilious in the recognition of the demands of official courtesy. The president, having referred these matters of local patronage to congressmen and senators, there must be something extraordinary in tho situation to cause him to diregard the decision. Candidates for postmasterships who have not the indorsement of their official representatives at Washington mjght as well quit the field, and in consideration of the limited amount of general patronage at the disposal of the administration candidates for consulships and departmental positions who have not the activo support of the state organization, the senator and their congressman should not entertain great expectations.

..-•

So many applicants for office have been referred to the civil service commission during the past three months by Iudiaua congressmen that there iB likely to be something of a crush at the semi-annual exaininstions to be held at Evansville and Fort Wayne on April 19 and at Indianapolis on April 26. The examinations on April 1!) will cover the departmental and printing service, and that at Indianapolis will be devoted largely to the Indian, agricultural and scientific departments. Full information can be had on application to Hon. John R. Procter, president United States civil service commission, Washington. Congressmen and senators can do applicants no good until after tliev have reached the eligible list, but when tue canuiu.ne reai'iies mat point tnere are some thiuirs about the operations ox the civil service law which do not appear in print, but which go to show that polni':' influence srill .counts for something in Mie selection of government employes.
