(JP TO ANANIAS Aminins Baker declared the other day to a o jrre»p indent of the Chioag<> Chronicle that "there's going to be Home reform in Indiana If the people don't want it they should not have elected me." It wan said once, within the memory of Ananiae, that the way to resume specie payment was to resume. And so the way for the Rochester legislator to bring about reform is to get at it. According to hie own repeat ed statement.* Mr Baker could tmve made |sWhl in the legislature if ho had wanted to. ,'Uu he has asserted that he earned letters in his pockets ( that would create a sensation. But the trouble seems to be that he is afraid of "traps. ’’ His chief anxit ty just at this time is that some body will try to surprise him into divulging information which be is tugging so closely to his bosom To the average p rson it would appear to be the natural and proper thing to tell whd he knows before it is "trappid” or "surprised" out i ot him without bis knowledge <r Consent If such an nnlncky thing should befall him it would dim tue > glory of his achievement. There-. fore, let him set about his reforming before it is too late—before bis brief career as a repairer of public morals comes to an untimely end through the machinations of tbe ungodly who want to know whai Ananias says be kn >ws. Let there be an end to oorrupiion in Indiana. —Sentinel.
