A. Ktefer A Co.: Gentlemen—For some time my hair hasbeea falling out, threatening me with baldness. I used Ayer's Hair Vigor, Hall's Hair Renewer and other remedies, with no effect. My scalp has always given me trouble, being covered witli scales, the result of a scrofulous affection. Recentl was prevailed upon to try Lyon's Kozothium/ The effect was wonderful. Not only was the falling off of the hair arrested, and anew growt dair stimulated in its stead, but the scales i-^iwere removed from the scalp, which is do longer feverish and uncomfortable, but cool and healthful. My hair which -was exceedingly gray has resumed its natural color, and is soft and glossy. I am aow using it upon beard, to which it

Is restoring its former natural color, though more slowly vbau to my hair. I '.•.•recommend It with confidence as a medisine for thescalp and a hair tonic and a ijair restorer, R. E. BKARDSLEY.

Jeff Davis, the patriot, and Ulysses Grant, the scalawag, is the way to put it nowadays.

The southern brigadiers in the senate yesterday: told the country that they consider the election, of Cleveland a confederate victory.

Mrs. Belva Ann Lock wood is certainly not making a bigger fool of herself than the Indiana Democratic electors made $ themselves when they furnished her the opportunity to do what she did yesterday.

We had to grin and bear the assertion from all over the south immediately after the election, that "the war ended November 4th," but we protest against the claim that Jeff Davis and his followers were the patriots in that war.

The Indianapolis papers report that th» movement to amend the metropolitan police law so that it will include Terre Haute has been abandoned. Even Democrats know enough to know that a red hot poker is not just the thing to trifle with.

The Fee and Salary question is already before the legislature and several bills have been introduced to regulate the pay of county officers. But it is said Speaker Jewett" having received the support of couiity officers will reciprocate by using his influence to prevent the passage of anv of these bills.

Mrs. Susan B. Anthony is in Washington for her annual' effort to get the sixteenth amendment before congress .for debate. She says she does not expect its adoption but is working to secu^ that agitation of the woman's suffrage question that will eventually make it the leading issue before the people.

Among the many very sensible recommendations made by, Governor Porter was one to investigate th5 condition of the state treasury. It is in the line of Mr. Hendricks' suggestion about examining the books, yet we find Mr. Hendricks' political friends raising a terrible row over the proposition. As everyone knows it has been a custom for state treasurers to loan out the public funds, this unusual opposition to a showing of the actual condition of the state treasury will naturally create a suspicion that things are even worse than supposed.

Governor Porter retires from office with the respect and esteem of men of all parties. He has been not only a pains taking official, but has evinced a high plane of statesmanship, best shown in his recommendations to the legislative branch of the state government. His last message is a model public document, and, in a sense, may be said to express his views upon public measures after four y^|p' study of the necessities of the state. In it will be found the matured thoughts of a man who has in the four years of his administration given repeated evidence of his ability The legislature, without regard to its political complexion will do well to act upon his adviae.

President Cleveland is very lucky in taking office just as a period of extraordinary commercial depression has reached low-water mark. The change of the tide is at hand, and the flood of returning prosperity will add to the credit of his administration. It will tend to make him popular.

It is true, on ths other hand, that he has to bear the responsibility which will attach to him if the crisis is much prolonged, just as he now has to bear the responsibility of the increased hard times, which in many quarters, and especially among ardent Republicans, is believed to have resulted from Mr. Blaine's defeat. "NTn (Innht. the revival.nf buu:,Y"",,T* have been quicker

When a "bear" yells out from the pit of aboard of trade, "I'll sell 5,000 February wheat," and a "bull" responds, "take it," that is a species of modern com merce. When a man, neither a "bull" nor a,"bear," says, "I'll open that pet for $10," that is a species of gambling, both ancient and modern.—[St. Louis Republican. 3

Governor Brown, of Georgia, is a business man—a railroad business man—and offered a little amendment the other day to Mr. Reagan's railroad bill, that means business and made music. His little amendment was, "That no merchant should sell larger packages of goods at a smaller percentage of profit than that upon smaller packages of goods of like ii 1 itv Commercial-Ga-quality,:''—[Cincinnati zette.

What is the reason there is such a tremendous flutter because Governor Porter took occasion to refer to what everybody knows is a dangerous condition of the state treasury? To call attention to this confessed evil does not necessarily impugnJMr. Cooper's integrity. It is periectly understood that the st^te money is loaned out to banks and, possibly, to private individuals. Mr. Cooper does not deny that, and does not care to deny it. The state is a party to the violation of the law, and Mr. Cooper is in no danger of being proceeded against fordoing what all the people understood is done, and which the legislature has winked at. But the people are interested in knowing the real condition of the treasury. Governor Porter did not oversate the necessity or propriety of an examination. Why is there such a fearful squeal?-—[Indian-jTteWlw^ournal m!he= _de Awakening.

^Harriet Jay's Legs.

New York Herald. Mr. Buchanan's Lady Clare was played at Niblo's Garden last night. His sister-in-law, Miss Harriet Jay, assumed the role of the youth, The Hon. Cecil Brookfields In the first act she wore loose white trousers and the venerable gentleman in the front row took very little in terest in the play. The rear view of Miss Jay's legs was. certainly very unsatisfactory, for they seemed to be bulky and given to inclining inward at the knees. There was a pleasant surprise in the second act, when Miss Jay's legs appeared in velvet knickerbockers and black stockings. They were plumpish, light comedy sort of legs, but very vague in the region of the knickerbockers, where the general appearance was that of decided stoutness. Miss Jay is two inches taller and a. few pounds heavier than Lord Ambermere, and when she cried defiantly, "Hit one of your size," she made a fine comedy hit Throughout the last act her legs were clad in light grav stockings and shooting breeches. In tliis she made her best points tell.

M-

Imposing Ceremonies Attend the Passing of the State's Affairs Into Democratic Hands.

Indianapolis News. The ceremonies attending the inauguration of Isaac P. Gray, as governor, and Mahlon D. Hanson, as lieutenant-gov-ernor, of Indiana, were of an imposing character. The senate and house of representatives assembled at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon, and immediately adjourned and marched in a body, preceded bj Beissenherz's band/ to English's. Opera house, where the two bodies met in joint convention, occupying the parqnette in the center of the lower floor. The interior of the theater was tastefully but not profusely decorated with evergreens, stars and stripes, and tlfe flags oi all nations.

On either side of the stage" were portraits of the governor and lieuteinant governor, and handsome pictures of President-elect Cleveland and- Vice president-elect Hendricks. The private boxes were used by the incoming and outgoing^ governor and lieutenant governor and their families, while the -stage seats were reserved for the state officers, ex-officere and other prominent personages. Mr. and Mr.?. T. A. Hendricks occupied chairs to the left of the presiding officer. In the audience, aside from the legislators, were to be seen the faces of well-known politicians of both parties from all parts of Hoosierdom. Every inch of available space in the immense building was taken, and hundreds were compelled to stand. Preliminary to the proceedings of the joint convention, the band played .several patriotic airs, including tho "Star Spangled Banner," "Yankee Doodle," and "Dixie."

At 2:30 o'clock, Lieutenant Governor Hanna, as president of the senate, called the joint convention to order. .The Rev. O. H. P. Abbott, (who prayed at the Democratic state convention) then sought the Divine blessing upon the new officers and upon the legislature, the benevolent institutions, the educational system, etc. Without any further delay or ceremony, the oath officS was administered separately to Governor Gray and Lieutenant Governor Manson by Judge Niblack, of the supreme court, as follows: "You do solemnly swear that you will support the constitution of the United States and the constitution of the state of Indiana, will faithfully discharge the duties of your office, so help your God." The appearance of each gentleman was greeted with prolonged and hearty applause. After the legal prdceeding Governor Gray was introduced and delivered the following inaugural address: 'Gentlemen of the General Assembly.

To be chosan

chief

magistrate of the state is

an honor that impresses me deeply, and for which I am profoundly grateful. I approach the discharge of the labors of this high trust with a full sense of the responsibility involved, but with a determination to perform the duties of the office faithfully for the publio good, and to that end I solicit your. earnest co-operation and support.

You are convened by,, virtue of the constitution to enact suoh laws as will promote education, suppress vice and immorality, punish crime, protect the rights of person and property, advance the general welfare of the people and the prosperity of the state, thus continuing to exalt the renown of this great republic of which Indiana is so conspicuous an integral part, ever mindful that a republican form of government can not endure longer than simplicity, integrity, and economy characterize its administration, and fidelity marks the conduct of its publio servants.

The political struggle, state and national, through which we have recently passed stirred tho ocean of our politics as a mighty storm, and like Nature's provision for purifying her great bodies of water by agitation of the tempest, it is hoped will eliminate the impure elements from our political sea, purify the body politic, and record in the history of our .government once more, the commencement of an era ot x»w~^.hmant. «nd reform.

The principle upon which our government is founded and under which we Wve increased from thirteen to thirty-eight states, -rritu large areas yet unorganized, creates vast and varied interests which naturally divide public opinion as to tho policy of the government. -Y:'

4--'rY

OUB GOVEKSMKST.

The continuance of Our national existence and prosperity, depending upon a wise and honest administration of tho powers and duties of the government, will always develop political dissentions and create party divisions, thus periodically rousing tho masses to pass judgment upon alleged evils of legislation and deviations from constitutional princiules, a check is put upon mal-administration, reforms are peaceably brought about, the government policy as to great political questions is directed and determined as a majority may demand.

The present depressed condition of the business apd industrial interests of the country invite the careful attention and study of the legislator.

The earth has yielded bountiful harvests, produce is abundant,' all the material for active business and increased prosperity seems to exist. Yet the last year has witnessed a succession of failures and disasters among the commercial, industrial, and financial institutions of the country, that have shaken confidence and seriously disturbed the business interests of the whole land.

LABORING CX.A8SES.

The rapidity with which colossal fortunes have been accumulated in late years by private individuals, the developing and fostering of railway and other Corporate bodies of vast wealth by government aid, the aggregation of •the money of our country in various combinations of power, and tho influence which they exercise in shaping legislation, raises tho inquiry whether legislation has not been too much in the interest of capital and wealth, and against the industrial masses of the coun try.

The laboring classes constitute a great portion of our population, and to this element we are largely indebted for our prosperity.

They comprise in a great measure the honest, intelligent, thinking citizens, who, l#y their suffrages, seek good government- and rightfully demand recognition of the feet that labor is honorable, that employers shall not be discriminated in favor of as against the employed, and such protection under the law as will enable them to assert their rights when endangered by combination of capital. The general welfare of the state is largely dependent upon the individual success of its citizens, and we should always bear in mind that the sure. avenue to competence and wealth is not by the inflated bubble of speculation, to which in the main our periodical disasters to trade and commerce are attributable, but by honest toil, patient industry, and a legitimate exchange of actual values and products. The passage of laws having in view the foregoing objects and conditions of capital and labor and the abolition of unnecessary taxation which eats up the fruits of labor, is in the interest of the ty reforms demanded to give substantial iiness prosperity. I am aware that these can only be generally and successfully through the exercise of the government but do not refer to tham upon this

There is not much danger of J*-.

Qn (he

side of too little law. The governed

too mud), and that was undoubtedly the principle that governed the framers' of our constitution in restricting the length of oar legislative sessians.

The feet that such provision has bean so long sanctioned by the people without an effort to change it, argues well its wisdom as a measure tending to serve the best interest of all the people of the state. Hence it becomes a matter of duty for each member to diligently and earnestly co-operate with his fellow members in perfecting and advancing the most important measures, and among the most important are those needed for support of the state and its institutions. The passage of the general aud specific appropriation bills should not bo left to the uncertainties attending the closing days of the session. To provide for the public wants of the state is the paramount duty of the legislature. To wifely and economically expend the means provided is one of the most important trusts confided to those clothed with the management of state affairs.

CHANGE OF JOAWS.

Laws that by long existence have become familiar to the people, and the observance of which is established, should not be changed without reasons that are cogent and unquestionable, as frequent alterations and amendments tend, not only to confuse the publio mind, but the learned professions of attorneys, counselors and jurists are often at a loss to agree upon and determine what the law really is, and the practical application and observance of it fell by reason of its uncertainty.

Changes in the laws are frequently made at the solicitation of an inconsiderable portion of the people and in the- interest of localities, without being demanded by the general publio or of general application, the principle of which is prohibited by our constitution.

It is to the repeal, modification and judicial construction of this class of hasty and impracticable legislation, that so much of th time and attention of our legislature as we] I as our courts is given. The supposednecea sity for a change in the law is often morv imaginary than real, as exemplified by 8 camparison of the legislation of different states.

In an adjoining sister state, the constitution of which and the occupation, commerce and business of the people being similar to our own, no stay of execution on judgment ill court of record is allowed, all property sold' at judicial sale must bring two-fcirds of tho appraised value, and no redemption of real estate

after judicial salo is permitted while in Indi ana we have a general provision for stay of execution on judgment in court, law authorizing a provision, contracts waiving the benefit of valuation and appraisement laws, and aright of redemption of real estate

Bold

on execution.

Most of these laws have been in force for over a quarter of a century, and notwithstanding so very different seem to be well settled am, accepted as satisfactory by the people of each state. To do away with the stay of execution and the right of redemption in our state would undoubtedly be regarded as oppressive by the debtor class, and the repeal of the act authorizing a waiver would be considered by the creditor as an impediment to the collection of debts. Upon the- other hand the people of our sister state would undoubtedly consider a law authorizing a s'tay of execution and the right of redemption as unreasonably delaying' the collection of debts, and the sale of property without appraisement unjust to the debtor class.

The biennial message contemplated by the constitution, touching the condition of the state and recommending measures for your consideration, having been submitted to you at tho opening of this session by my predecessor, it will not be expected of mo to make specific recommendations in this address. But during the progress of your deliberations, whenever the occasion for such action arises, I shall communicate the same to you by special message.

ALIEN LAW,

I would, however, invite your attention to the act of onr legislature of 1881, giving aliens the right to acquire, hold and convey real estate. This is such an innovation upon the spirit of our institutions that the same is open to criticism, and in my judgment demands your consideration as to its neoessity, and, if deemed necessary, provisions to prevent vast landed monopolies by aliens, which by slow and insidious growih may become detrimental to the interests of tl state? coram

Section 1 of Article VII. of bur state constitution provides that ''The judicial power of the state shall be vested in a supreme court, in cirouit courts, and in such other courts as the general assembly may establish."

The amendment to. this section adopted in 1881, by which its provisions were enlarged, was clearly the result of years of agitation brought about by the limited judicial power of the state, and a demand for relief from the delays attending the constantly increasing business of the supreme court.

The act of the general assembly of 1881 in creating the offices of supreme court commissioners, and re-enactment of 1888 oxtending their term for two years, were both-legislative expressions in response to the requirements of this amendment of the constitution in 1881, which was undoubtedly adopted to give the legislature constitutional authority to establish othor conrts than tho circuit and supreme in order that the administration of justice might be facilitated and the business of the supreme court thereby lessened to suoh an extent as would enable it to promptly consider and decide, as contemplated by the constitution, the questions appealed to it for judicial determination. in -vi«w of the fact that nearly seven hundred cases arc bow pending in the supreme courts after four years asBldoouB aid dt the supreme caurt commissioners, I submit for your consideration -he question of the expediency of continuing the commission as means of accomplishing the judicial relief contemplated by the constitutional amendment, and earnestly invite your attention as to whether or not the practical working and effect of the commission is not in violation of tho intendment of sections two and five of article 7 of the constitution. ,It Seems to me that litigants are entitled to have their matters in controversy decided by the court established by the constitution. In many cases they do not get this right under the working of rules 2 and 8 of the supreme court for the government of .its commissioners. The supreme court under those rules decides causes referred to the commissioners upon the opinion rendered by the commissioners, and not upon the questions arising in the record as required by the constitution. I am aware that the supremo court is compelled to such a course in order to nake the labors of the commissioners availiable, but it raises the query whether practically it does not make the supreme court to consist of ten judges, when the constitution says it shall not consist of more than five.

INDIANA UNIVEBSITT.

The educational interests of the state ere worthy of your careful consideration and generous snpport-. In addition to the ordinary and necessary needs of our educational institutions, it would not be improper for me to call your attention to the great loss sustained by the Indiana university since the last meeting of the legislature. One of the main buildings, as well as the library and museum, has been destroyed by fire. The extent of the loss, as well as the and hopes for the future of that institution, is set forth in the report of the trustees to the governor. The state can afford, by a reasonable appropriation, to second the efforts of the trastees to bnild up a university, as the head of our common school system of the state, whose position of usefulness will be extended and perpetuated.

PLEUBO-PNEUMONIA.

Your attention is called to the alarming spread of pleuro-pneumonia among the cattle of our sister states of Ohio, Illinois and Kentucky, and that our own state is threatened with the invasion of said disease, which is said to be both contagions and infectious, and has already caused disastrious losses to the live stock interests of those states. Timely precautionary measures may to a large extent save the cattle interests of Indiana from the ravages of this disease. The consideration of the same is submitted for such action as in yourjudgment it may demand.

OSTTYBBtmO.

I am advised that several of the states" which furnished regiments of volunteers in the fedejal army that participated in the battle of Gettysburg have made appropriations for the purpose of erecting tablets to mark the positions occupied by their troops in that great and decisive event. Indiana had five regiments of infantry—Seventh, Fourth, Nine*teenth, Twentieth and Twenty-seventh^*fid two companies of the First

andsix

carfpanies

of the Hurd oavalry that were engslied in that, perhaps the greatest battle

fought

by the army

of the Potomac, and it is eminently proper that our state should do as much as anyother to commemorate the heroism displayed^by her sons in defense of the Union npon that mem

orable

battle field. I therefore invite your atStottis subject for such action as you

deem proper. WORLD'S EXPOSITION. I am informed that of the sum of $5,000, allotted to Tndinxm by the commissioners of the World's Cotton and Industrial Exposition,

now
