FRIDAY, OOTOBER 13, 1899.

MB. BBTAN'S statement that "our energies are dammed up by unnatural restriction" should not be construed into meaning impediment of speech.

N©BLE8vrLLE Ledger: Congressman Landis was one of the principal speakers at the opening of the state campaign in Iowa on Saturday. The people of the Hawkeye state know where to to come for orators. Indiana iB always to the front.

IT will be noted that Admiral Dewey speaks of the Filipinos as insurgents. He also declares them incapable of self government. These statements are interesting as showing .the vifews of the American best capacitated to speak of the Philippine situation.

Sc tAR less than 5 per cent, of a total of 900 cases of yellow fever in Key West have resulted fatally. Either the germs of this disease are becoming less virulent or the methods of treatment have been vastly improved within the last twenty years.

A DELEGATION of Creek Indians who went to Washington to aBk for changes in the Curtis law, have been informed that changes in the law can only be made by congress. The Indians claim that the law conflicts with the treaty made with them by President John Quincy A,dama in 1825.

THE last of the volunteers-regiments for the Philippines are nearly recruited to their full strength. War department officials are confident that they will be able to carry out Secretary Root's announcement when these volunteers were called for by getting them all to Manila by Christmas.

SBNATOB KYLE, president of the industrial commission, who at one time tendered hiB resignation because of failing health, but was persuaded to withdraw it, is now presiding over the daily seBBioins of the commission, which .have \een resumed in Washington. Transportation is the present subject of investigation.

THB Democratic LouiBville Times, which has been enthusiastically advertising Bryan's promised visit to that state, does not take kindly to his Bickness. It says: •'In undertaking to deliver an average of about six speeches a day, even Mr. Bryan has 'bit off more'n he canj chaw.' Like unto all other mortal thipgs, the tongue has its limitations."

INDIANA has several members of congress who will do honor to her name if the voters have the good sense to keep them in office, says the Fowler Republican. Among these are the two senators, and Representatives Crumpacker and Landis. No two young congressmen at Washington are more sought for than the two latter and their judgment on all political questions is given great consideration. They lose no time from their duties.

GEN. FDNSTON, the Kansas fighter, endorses what Admiral Dawey has to say of the fight in the Philippines and caustically remarks: "I have never for one minute had «ny qualms as to the justice of this war. We are right and they are wrong. I hope that when they are conquered they will be made to ieel for many years' the iron hand of military rule, the only kind for which they are suited. I think the islands the rnoBt valuable acquisition. Their natural resources are almost beyond computation. From a strictly money standpoint they are great."

THE only thing that could possibly cause this government to offer to mediate between Great Britain and the Transvaal republic, would be for the former government to join in the request already indirectly made by the latter. If there is war, as now seems probable, this government will maintain a strict neutrality. In notifying the government of the Transvaal republic that the United States could not recognize Gen. James R. O'Beirne, of New York, as its diplomatic representative, the department of 'State simply followed a rule as old as our government—not to allow an American citizen to diplomatically represent a foreign country at Washington. This rule was emphasized by the secretary of state &as early as »when that portfolio was held by Thomas Jefferson, and later by Secretaries Fish and Evarts. General O'Beirne is now in Washington. He haB been recived at the department of state, but simply as

any other American citizen would be received, not as the the diplomatic representative of the Transvaal republic. Ex-Secretary Sherman said of the suggested mediation of the United Sates: "I do not think the United States ought to seek in any way to interfere. We are too far away, and we should not involve ourselves in a controversy that might lead to -war," and Representative Burton, of Ohio, said on the same subject: "I think it would be' a very serious mistake for this government to offer mediation under existing circumstances."

Lecture Course Dates.

The committee in charge of the educational work of the Young Men's Christian Association feels that there is an opportunity to do much good in Crawfordsville by a first class course of lectures and concerts. AIBO the committee feels that there is a demand on the part of the public for such a course. Eor these reasons the entertainments of the past two years have been presented and for the same reasons a course has been arranged for 1899-1900. In the judgment of the committee the very best talent obtainable has been secured and we think no city in America will present a better course in six numbers than will be given Crawfordsville this winter. In Prof. John DeMotte, Dr. Jas Hedley, and Rev. Robert Mclntyre we have three of the most prominent lecturers to be secured. The music will be above par. The Temple Male Quartette and Miss Burnet created unbounded enthusiasm last year and because of the popular demand will be repeated. Hitherto we have had no' organization composed- entirely of ladies and so this year the Appleton Ladies' Quartette comes to us as somewhat of a novelty. We are sure there will be no disappointment connected with this entertainment. But of all three concerts the one to be given Nov. 1, by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra will no doubt be the most enjoyable. This orchestra is composed of 46 men under the leadership of Adolph Rosenbecker. It is beyond question the best orchestra now appearing upon the concert stage. The strength and pleasure of the entertainment will be greatly enhanced by the presence of Heinrich Meyer, baritone, Mme. Ragna Linne, soprano, and Wm. H. Sherwood, pianist. Further comment is unnecessary. We know that no such musical attraction has appeared in thiB city for years.

Season tickets for this course will be $1 each with a reserved seat fee of 10, 15, and 20 cents, according to location. Tickets were put on Bale Saturday at Lacey's book store, Brower Bros., and the Y. M. C. A. They will also. be in the handB of canvassers. Let all who are interested in maintaining a lecture course in this city buy tickets at once. It is well known that this is the only way in which the lecture courae can be maintained and its continuance made possible.

Happily Wedded.

On last Sunday, Oct. 8, occurred the marriage of Ambrose Campbell, of Alamo, and MisB Ethel Livengood, the youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T. R. Livengood, of this city. The marriage was solemnized by Justice Stilwell at hiB home in his most happy manner.

The groom is the son of Andrew Campbell, and is an exemplary young man and should be congratulated for winning the hand and heart of so fair a young lady.

The bride was attired in a suit of army gray, while the ^groom wore the conventional suit of black. The young couple departed immediately after the ceremony to spend their honeymoon with the bride's sister, Mrs. Epbie Gooding, of Warren county.

They have a host of friends in this euid adjoining counties, who join with us in wishing them a happy and prosperous married life.

They will make their home for the present with the bride's parents on Meadow Avenue.

CHATTEL MORTGAGE LAW.

Act of 1897 to Protect the borrowers Held to Be Valid.

The law passed in 1897 for the protection of persons giving chattel mortgages on their household goods ia valid. The Bupreme court has BO held in the case of William A. Zumpfe against James H. Gentry. The law provides that the mortgagee of household goods shall not be entitled to possession of the mortgaged property until after his mortgage has been properly foreclosed by a suit in the circuit or superior court, unless the mortgage specially provides for such possession, and the gooda are turned over to him at the time the mortgage is executed, and he continues to hold them afterward. All provisions in any mortgages of household goods, by which the mortgagee receives the right to take possession of the property in case of default in payment of the mortgage debt, are declared to be void. The law also requires that whenever the holder of such a mortgage receives a payment thereon he shall give a receipt stating the amount paid and the mortgage debt to which it iB to be applied, together with the amount of money that

waB

actually loaned when

the mortgage was given, the sum that was charged for making the lbau, what payments have been received, how much is still owing, and wiheh it will become-due. If Buch a receipt is not given the law declares that the mortgage shall become void.

Green—Breakers Ahead.

London, Oct. 18.—Great preparations are being made at Southampton for the departure on Saturday of General Sir Reivers Buller, and a great demonstration is anticipated.

It is announced that the fleet of transports conveying General Sir Redvers Buller's army corps will be escorted by Warships, while further dispatohboats and gunboats will be sent to South African waters.

The government has already expended £5,000,000 in naval and military preparations, the orders placed with contractors this week amounting to £600,000. The authorities, anticipating a serious reduction in the output of the South African coal mines, have ordered 6,000 tons of English steam coal to be sent to the Cape for the use of the warships.

The outbreak of the war has sent the price of English wheat up, and on various country markets the farmers have refused to sell wheat under 30 shillings per quarter, in some cases even holding out for a still higher price.

AMEKICAX FRIENDS

President Kruger of the Transvaal Thanks Them. Chicago, Oct. 12.—The following cablegram was received last night by the Chicago Tribune from Pi-esidetit Kruger of the Transvaal republic. The cablegram was sent in answer to .a message, requesting a statement of the positionof the Transvaal in the present crisis. It is dated Pretoria, and is as follows: "Through The Tribune we wish to thank our many American friends for sympathy in the present crisis of the republic. Last Monday wffgave England 48 hours notice within which to give assurance that the dispute will be settled by arbitration or other peaceful means. The notice expires at 5 today. The British agent is recalled and war is certain. "This is the fitting end of British policy of force and fraud which has marked all South Africa with the blood of Afrikanders. We must now make South Africa free or the white man's grave. The republic's forces include all nationalities, among them a strong American corps, showing its not a case of Boer against Uitlander, but all nations against the English. We have full faith in freedom and republicanism, and in the righteousness which guides the destinies of nations.
