J>r e33 PUBLISHED WEEKLY. DEMOCRATIC PRESS PUBLISHING CO. LEW G. ELLINGHAM, EDITOR -—■ — —— — --- $1.50 PER YEAR IN ADVANCE. THU KSDAY, JANUARY 31. The legislature is going to investigate the officers of attorney pen eral and treasurer of state. This is right. An examination of official atlairsisal ways in order. Let there be light. The Grand Rapids & Indiana rs'ilroad company will elect thirteen —an unlucky number—new directors for the ensuing year. The meeting will lie held at Grand Rapide on March 6. The whiskey trust has gone into the hands of a receiver, and now we wonder what this wide world is coming to. There must be barrels of money in this receiver business for trusts never do anything there isn’t money in. Their property is valued at $35,000,000. The Conn horn factory at Elk hart held its twelfth reception Tuesday evening, at which time $15,000 was publicly distributed among 200 employes. The plant adopted a profit sharing among its employes and this is the result. It is the kindest hearted monopoly we know of. Candidates for war en of the prison north are numerousand now a great three-cornered fight is going on in the legislature. Two year ago the republicans voted to trans mit the appointing power to the gov ernor and now they’ will have to vote to take|it away from him. Whatalovely time they are having, The republican members of the legislature have appointed steering committees, whose duty it will be to look after certain legislation of interest only to republican bloodthirsty politicians, among which is a fee and salary law, an apportionment law, control of the state insti tntions and many other things too numerous to here relate. They are having a hard time of it. Senator Thayer, a representative in the senate from Wabash and Kosiusko counties,diedat his home at Warsaw Monday morning. Out of respect the senate and house both adjourned Monday. Under the law the governor must call a special election to select his succes sor. He was a very enterprising citizen, being connected with the grain and commission business. There is nothing novel in Mr. Cleveland’s recountal of the conditions confronting the treasury, though it is worth noting in pass ing that he officially denies that any lack of revenue embarrasses the administration. Indeed he reports a surplus amounting to $63,000,000 now in the treasury vaults, but this is mere money—money good enough for all the uses of trade and commerce, but not the gold which the hungry brokers of New York are making a counter in their game of freeze-out with the treasury.—Chicago Times. Cat fights of all sizes are arising among the Indiana republican brothers at Indianapolis over the right kind of an apportionment act, fee and salary law, as well as other matters. They all have a variance about what they need, and it’s a pretty hard matter to suit them all. However, there isn’t one of then, who wants a state gerrymander- no not at all, they just want a fair apportionment, one that will retain them in office and keep the demo crats out, no matter how many legal voters are disfranchised inthedeal. They- wouldn't do anything unjust for the world —-no, not if you don't care what you say.

The excitement caused by the president's message among the silver men in congress is somewhat amusing. They denounce it iu the most extreme terms, but they for get that they have for, ed it by their utter refusal to• consider any kind of a compromise on the subject. They have played their role ! of implacables until the finances of the country are in danger and the people are utterly out of patience. It is safe to say that outside of the populist states three-fourths of the people indorse the president’s message. They are tired of this policy of obstruction which permits no re-« lief except on conditions that can not be accepted. They are injuring j their own cause more than they' dream of, and injuring it penna nently. They have insisted on al fight. Let the battle proceed.— ’ Sentinel.

M any exceptions are being taken to President Cleveland’s special message to congress on the currency question. Congress don't coincide by a long shot. Representative: Melendy has now fathered a legislative apportionment bill, the same has been introduced in the house ami is said to have the promised support of thirty republicans when they meet in caucus. It gives Adams one representative all by its lonesome. Eakly Tuesday morning the North German Lloyd steamship, Ellie, bound from Bremen to New York, collided with a small steamer fifty miles off from Lowestoft. The steamship carried 240 passengers and 160 officers and seamen, out of which but twenty two survive to relate their tragic struggle to escape death. Three hundred and seventy eight went down with the ship including Captain Yon Goes sell. Many Americans were among the list of drowned.

President Cleveland has tiansmitted to congress a special message relative to monetary affairs, and beseeches of that body legislative action on matters of finance, which is of relative interest to every American citizen no matter what his political ambitions may be- His words are wise and to the point, ami if the congress in session now at the capital have one iota of patriotic blood in their veins they will cast to the fore winds all political dissentionsand difficulties, and meet for once upon one common plane, and there solve out and legislate a inotielaiy system that would best meet the financial interests of this country. Give us a solid and staple currency. Fix it so the robbers of Wall street can I not, within twenty four hours, drain the United States treasury of I every speck of gold and thereby cause the government to issue bonds Ito again supply it. Fix it now and forever, and don't permit your political ideas to interfere with a solid staple currency reform. Give us good money. Senator Voorhees is not alarmed about the present financial trouble the government is experiencing about finance. He says: “1 am not alarmed on the subject of finances at this time, for the reason that I know, as well as any future event can be determined by the experience of the past and by the most careful calculation, that as soon as the present revenue laws get into operation the revenuis of the government will be amply suf ficient, and, in fact, more than suf ticient to meet the government expenses. I predict that this will oc cur within the next sixty days and that the sale of bonds, avowed for the redemption of currency, but in reality to raise money to pay current expenses, will then cease. Meanwhile it is gratifying to know that there is a surplus in the treasury of over $60,000,000, every dollar of it at par with gold, which can be used to meet every honest and patriotic obligation of the government, thus tiding over the pres ent temporary embarrassment until the treasury is made easy and comfortable, as it will be under existing legislation.” The Second Dose. Senator LaFollette of this senatonial district, craves for political distinction as wdl as many of the other brethern, so he burdens the senate with the following congressional courtesy. He is tryingto surpass the enviable record of Senator Wishard, and we don’t know but what he is entitled to a distinguish able chunk of republican! glory. Here we have it: First District—Knox, Gibson, Pike, Posey, Vanderburg, Warrick, Spencer. Second-—Dubois, Orange, Washington,Scott, Perry, Crawford, Harrison, Floyd, Clark.
