Terre Haute offers manufacturing In dustries unequalled Inducements. Fuel Is cheaper than In any city In the west, so

cheap

that flour is manufactured at less cost for power than prevails anywhere else In the country. There are nine rail roads leading into the city, making freight rates cheaper than for any city of Its slie In the west.

The Express is in daily receipt of many complaints concerning the stealing of papers from door yards. It is difficult to prevent this annoyance entirely, but as a means of preventing it as far as possible, the Express offers a reward of five dollars for the detection and conviction of any person stealing oopies of this paper from the premises of subscribers.

Whatever else may be said of Mahone, he is not afraidof the bulldozers.

The Indianapolis Journal says complaints of the inefficiency of the police force in that city continue to increast.

The Indianapolis Sentinel, in calling attention to its account of the lynching of Jake Nelling, refers to the mob murder as "an unpleasant aflair."

The policemen were the original blunderers, the police board surpassed them, the Gazette next achieved the championship, but Dr. Swafford now lakes the cake.

The Grand Army Post of which Paul Yandervoort is a member, has denounced the action of another body of the Grand Army in passing resolutions supporting Vandervoort in his warfare on General Gresham. A man is best known at home.

The Gazette is engaged in the very preposterous task of trying to convert the Montgomery arrest into a general quarrel on the part of Terre Haute with all the surrounding towns, forgetting that every one except itself has long since concluded the grievance was merely with a blundering policeman and a shortsighted police board. The effort to summon all Terre Haute to the side of the police, and in this way lose sight of the true situation, is merely a bit of very ordinary political manouvering. That it is not a happy solution of the dilemma in which the police department lias been placed iB fully attested by the two columns and over of very fiery editorial in yester day evening paper.

We say frankly to the Gazette that we never thought it endeavored to apologize for Officer Welch, and if any sush impression has been conveyed by the Express it is a matter of regret to this paper. To accuse a man or a news paper of apologizing for Welch would be making an accusation of both a lack of decency and common sense, and of course the Express does not desire to accuse its evening contemporary of be-, ing indecent.

But the police board condoned the conduct of Welch, if its official action counts for anything, and the Gazette defended the police board. How' ever that may be, our contemporary does not make a good appearance riding the high horse in this instance. The Express is always willing to te convinced of an injury done, but it insists the Gazette shall in this Welch matter acknowledge that it did wrong in telling the public that Welch was "dismissed" or "discharged" when it knew the police board avoided doing anything of the kind. The Gazette insulted the citizens of Marshall, saying they were persons liable to arrest. These and many such statements have been made, and the Gazette never gave space to a word of explanation even. "We hold it is manly to make the amende honorable in the newspaper, and do not want to believe that a contemporary who can show so much indignation as displayed yesterday is still pursuing a former practice of apologizing by postal cards and personally

for

done in the newspaper.

The St. Louis Republican is strongly anti-Randall. In an editorial under the head, "The Issue Cannot be Evaded," it says "the opponents of further tariff reform," meaning the supporters of Randall, who is tactitly pledged to prevent any tariff legislation this winter, "do not present in plain terms the issue which now must be met." The Republican then proceeds to an argument to show that a revision of the tariff is demanded by the condition of the revenue of the government. We

-•3J *f

call attention to this merely to^nakr the point that the I^B^racj|is|coni-, ing into contitkl oftdSe bj*ncK

gress sorely divided upon one of the great issues of the day. There have been weak attempts to make it appear the party is in baitnbny regarding tH^issue arid that at the utmoat there but the difference of opinion that can hinge upon the word "only" in the proposition of a "tariff for revenue only." This,,however, is not true.. There is within the party a very large following of free traders, pure and simple. This class intends asserting itself at the coming session. A free trader, next toaGreen* backer, is the most positive supporter of his belief of any adherent of a cause, and he neither considers policy or party when pursuing liis hobby. Between the Democratic free trader and a ttpridnll protectionist there is as much contention as there is between a Bourbon Democrat and a Mahone Readjuster. Ranging from the free trade Democrat to the Randall protectionist there are several tenets of belief, and if this winter does not witness a very lively row among the Democrats iu congress we are greatly mistaken in the outlook.

There ia in the disposition of Dr Swafford a sly homer that is inimitable He was inoneot his happiest moods at the ineeting of the council last night, and in extravagant fun his speech and resolution have never been equalled. The es^n^eOf' fan is recklessness, and the doctor gave evidence of a full, appreciation of that fact. The occasion for the hilarity was furnished by the report'of the police board of its socalled investigation of the Montgomery arrest. The doctor made a speech. He ostensibly

:used

the report as a source of

in formation, but no doubt realizing that it was based upon only a partial hearing of the caw reported upon chose to draw upon his imagination entirely for focts. Of conrte the doctor pretended to defend Officer Kunz, otherwise he would have had no play for bis sarcasm. The doctor told the story of the anest, and We feel warranted in saying that despite the many ways in which it has heretofore been described the doctor's was an entirely original narration. By great ingenuity he got Station Master Likert on the scene and engaged in the 'scuffle when Mont gomery resisted arrest. It doesn't matter that Likert was not at the depot at the time, because, as we said, the essence of humor is exaggeration. But the doctor's speech merely served to bring his wit into good play and later on in the proceedings he fairly overwhelmed the council with a burst of merriment, We can see the sly twinkle in his eye as he wrote the resolution which he offered. It will be found in the report the council proceedings this morning. Don't overlook it. It will be remembered the citizens of Marshall held an indignation meeting and passed resolutions in respect of the arrest of Mr. Montgomery. The doctor's whereases and resolution proceeded upon the assumption that the citizens of Marshall had met to pass resolutions denouncing Terre Haute because some of the merchants of this city had capiased certain citizens of Marshall and the neat inanner in which the doctor let his sarcasm have full play Upon that assumption, can only be appreciated by reading the resolutions.

As a matter of course the doctor knew that all this talk of resisting an officer and this clatter about capiases have nothing to do With the case. He knew that, as does everyone else. The police board even knew that much. The doctor, like all the rest of us, knew that Kunz, the vigilant, arrested as he thought, a thief. It was the night the three cracksmen were taken and Kunz was full of envy of his brother officers who, through the aid of a newspaper solicitor, made those arrests. -He surpassed them and captured a thief who had $400 in his possession, and properly enough placed the charge of "suspicion" against his man. When the thief turned out to be a reputable Citizen of Marshall the humorists began their labore, and much of the results bore Bigns of great labor. Since then the doctor has observed the various pleas that have been manufactured He felt that he was put upon his mettle, but he had confidence in himself and knew that he could triumph.

Churchill and wife. This lady is some years Mary's senior. Mary is aged seventeen, and between her and the other children is a lapse of ten or twelve years. She became impressed with the false idea that she also was an adopted daughter, and this, coupled with the distasteful piano practice, and the belief that she had no particular claim upon Colonel Churchill, led her to leave home and take service elsewhere. The superintendent of the insane asylum now reports that she will not return to her old position in the Indiana institution.

NEW REIGN'OF TERROR.

$That Some Prominent Think of Mahone'a Manifesto.

Mm-

The South to be Made Solid Again— Ko-Kluxism and Murder in Tlrgiaia and Mississippi.

Special to the

WASHINGTON, D. C., November 19.— The National Republican has received a number of specials from persons of prominence-in regard to. Mahone's address. Among them the following:

Senatar Sherman said: "I have read the address, and think it an honest and manly statement. I think when chairman of a democratic executive committee can shoot a man Sown in cold blood and then boast of it can tell the coroner that there is no need of an inquest because he was ready to avow the killing when the sheriff don't dare to arrest the murderer, and when such things as the murder of those negroes in Danville go unpunished it is time the old war cry was raised. The men who are doing these things are fast stirring up the public feeling of the north to fever heat. I am not a very excitable man myself, but when I learn Of such acts as these, I am not disposed to look with any degree of complacency Upon a prospect of Democratic ascendency next year. I believe that the perpetrators of these outrages are sowing dragons' teeth." "Then you do not believe that they strengthen the Democratic party "I know that if they continue it will make the entire north solid against them, and that means the success of the Republican party. If we forced a sectional issue when there was no cause for it, we should gain no advantage but if they force that issue upon hs, as they are doing, it will make us victorious." "Do you think that the financial affairs of Virginia have anything to do with the present fight "I don want to discuss that question. Virginia's finances are a local matter. 1 am not so much in sympathy with Senator Mahone upon that matter as I am with his position upon the national question of a man's right to vote, but I don't care to discuss that. The question is whether citizens are to be murdered on account of their political faith." "Do you think that these outrages are likely to be made the subject of a senatorial investigation?" "I should not like to give an opinion on that point. I may be called to act upon it. "Have not similar outrages been investigated bv the senate in previous years?" "Ku-klux bands and other eucji organizations have been investigated by the senate, but riots have not been, Unless they could be shown to be part Of an organized plan to disfranchise voters. I give no opinion on this case, however, and shall not state what course I shall take if the question comes up in the senate."*^ -r

Governor Foster said: ,, 1 "His case is admirably put and it will make a profound impression upon the public mind the triumph of Bourbonism, by the means used, is a serious blow to the prosperity of Virginia, and is a terrible shock to conservative masses of the North, who Were fast becoming satisfied that the days of Kukluxism had been numbered. The fair interpretation of the Bourbon success in Virginia is that they intend to stop at nothing to secure a solid South for the candidate of the Democracy in the presidential contest next year."

Governor Rusk, of Wisconsin, telegraphed "The result of the recent election in that state is indictive that the south intends to stand solid in 1884, and thinks that the north will do the same."

He says, further, that as Mahone is in favor of a free ballot and a fair count, and the education of blacks 'as well as whites, he is for him, as opposed to bourbonism, which is synony mous with bull-dozing. He regards tbe Danville riot as apiece of bourbon intimidation, whose influence it was meant should be felt throughout the itate.

Lincoln on Clay and Taylor. The Chicago Inter-Ocean prints the following letter written by Abraham Lincoln, when a member ef congress, to JudgeaA. Williams, of Quincy, 111, a personal and political friend:

WASHINGTON, April 36,1848.

DEAR WILLIAMS: I have not seen in the papers any evidence of a movement to send a delegate from your county to the June [Illinois state] convention. I wish to say that I think it all-important that a delegate Bhould be sent. Mr. Clay's chance for an election is just no chance at all. He might get New York and that would have elected in 1844, but it will not now because hemustnowatleasthave Tennessee, which he had then, and in addition the fifteen new votes of Florida, Texas, Iowa, and Wisconsin. I know our good friend Browning is a great admirer of Mr. Clay, and I therefore fear be is favoring his nomination. If he is, ask him to discard feeling and try if he can possibly, as a matter of judgment, count the votes necessary to elect him. In my judgment we can elect no one bnt Gen. Taylor, and we cannot elect him without a nomination. Therefore, don't fail to send a delegate. Your friend, as ever, A. LINCOLN.

Jndge A. B. Norton, of Dallas, Tex., has a cane given him by Henry Clay in 1844. It is made from an ash tree that was felled in that year on Clay's groonds.

Martin, the discharged manager of the lioston Ideal Opera frith pany, was put upon the witness stand to-day in his suit against Miss Ober, the proprietress of the company, for breach of contract, ke said that Miss Ober, paid him $200 a Week for three weeks, and then stopped because, as she said, he had Embezzled funds of Ihecompany. One of the items of his account complained of was .for extra advertising in Philadelphia in February of last year. Business was bad, he explained iuid he and Foster, who is now with ^be Ideals in Chicago, spent considerable money treating the newspaper men to wineB and cigars. The bill of Foster's' expenses amounted to $165,

When asked if he was not on a spree in Chicago, the witness excited jy exclaimed: "Bring it up! My father died of delirium tremens at 35, and may die. I have had it harped at me by "that woman ever since our differences began. It is disgraceful, after all the money I have' made. for her." Witness claimed to have found the Company in a bankrupt condition, and he put it On paying basis.

Testimony was introduced tending jto show that Martin, just before his discharge, had entered into a scheme With Foster and Barnabee, both of hom are still with the Ideals, to organize another opera company. The .rial will be resumed to-mOrrow.
