A OQpy of the Indiana Almanac for 1893 has just been received by us. It is without question the most complete and be3t work of its kind that has been issued in the State. The main features of the work are deserving of extended notice. The World’s Fair, which is to be held this year, will no doubt be visited by almost every citizen of Indiana. This important subject is fully outlined in twenty-eight pages of printed matter, showing cuts of the buildings and descriptions of all the interesting features and exhibits. Complete tables and Tariff Duties and increases are noticed. A reliable table of the Indiana Post-offices, with their salaries. This constitutes reference volume for those interested in the new appointments expected after March 4th. The United States Government, with the names and salaries of every official thereir , from President down, are given A full list of United States Senators and Representatives are furnished. Tables of population of States, cities, etc., and other matters of paramount importance are also set fully forth. A concise collection of general information on the recent political revolution is perhaps the most interesting featu eof this work. The vote of Indiana by counties on both State and National tickets is scheduled, and separate tables are friven on legislative districts. The great result by popular vote an ! electoral votes is also sLown For the benefit of handy reference the platforms ofthe four leading parties in 1892 are appended.
John C. New, Harrison's oonsnl general to London, and at one time connected with the Treasury Department, says concerning the financial situation: “I have no knowledge of the policy of the administratiod, bat it ought to occur to anybody that the cause of the gold stringency in this country is due to tee policy of purchasing silver bullion and paying gold for it, fer the plan of issuing silver certificates, amounts to the payment direct of gold for silver.” This is an admission that the feverish financial situation is attributable to te. publican legislation, and is a hard slap at the Sherman silver purchasing bill.
