The Newport Hoosier State says: The Express thinks that Terre Haute is destined to be the cheapest point in Indiana for manufacturing purposes. It looks sorter that way. Its: facilities for obtaining cheap fnel are not exoeiled in the state. It is situated on the west border of the ooal belt, and has six lines of roads leading to the great coal fields of Clay,: Greene, Sallivan, Farke and Vigo counties.. There is nothing to hinder Terre Hants from becoming one ot the greatest manufaotnring towns in the west.

A Washington correspondent gives "Major Kelley, of Terre Haute, chief of assignment division of the patent office," much credit for favors shown to ex-soldier applicants for patents. The "Major" has gained a repuattion with his office. Strange as it may seem, no opposition has been manifested by the kickers to the appointment of Kelley, As one democrat expressed it, all factions are willing, if his salary in Washington is not sufficient to keep him there, to raise a fund here to make up the deficiency.

Wm. O'Brien, T. P. O'Connor, T. M. Healy and Justin McCarthy, Irish leaders, being interviewed give it as their opinion that the nueen must send for Gladstone, who will form a strong cabinet and bring about home rule for Ireland. jO'Connor makes a good point when he says: "The English constituencies have never* had the case against the act of anion presented to them, and that case is so overwhelmingly strong that, especially when Gladstone advocates the measure, it will torn the tide completely

Secretary Manning has a "Manning crest," Official carriages are beipg used for social purposes by the wives of mem beralaf the cabinet, and the president has an ai-mv officer in full uniform at his side on state occasions. There never was so much of the "court circle" idea at the capital as nnder this administration, which was to be characterized by its Jefferstaian simplicity. It is not strange therefore that the president should set hiidself above the requirement by which he shall obtain the adyice and consent of theisenate to nominations to office.

The eulogies of Mr. Hendricks in the senate, delivered by such men as Evarts, Sherman, Voorhees and Spooner, all expressed contempt for the narrow-minded vi^w which holds that a man must be better than his party. WJhat a reflection it iis upon the pretender in the White House, who sets himself up as better than these distinguished men, whose experience in public affairs is measured in y^ars where his is counted by dajs. The ablest and best men of the country have been partisans. The Indianapolis Journal well says:

It does not hart a man to be a partisan. Uhe two men whom the people of Indiana .ost delight to honor, and whom the nation ilds in remembrance—Oliver P. Morton and omaa A. Hendrioks—were distinguished for intensity of their partisan conviotions, nd the tenaoity with which they adhered to tjhem. A milk-sop dees not live long in anybody's esteem.

The administration has decided not to comply with the senate's request for information regardiog removals. The president cannot find excuse for thus taking a stand against all precedents on the ground that the senate is hostile to him and iR maliciously antagonizing hjs course in filling the federal offices with democrats. The figures show that the proportion of confirmations is as large as it was under Grant, Hayes, Garfield or Arthur. Indeed the senate has been very yielding in its treatment of the president in its capacity as a co-ordinate branch of the government The fact that the president declines to furnish information raises the suspicion that in some cases where removals have been made there is no good excuse except the one that the official was

a republican and suchreason is barred' the president's official communication congress that removals sliould riot', made on partisan grounds. The New York World says:

SATUBDAY, OTTTABY 30,1886.

Republicans should arrange their busi ne3S affairs for to-day so that they can attend the county convention at the co art house at 1 o'clock.

Judge Stotsenburg has treated of an important subject in his comments npon municipal misgovernment. The municipal indebtedness of the county is afar more serious matter than the national 1, 'WM debt. ,-Jk

Congressman Glover (de'm.), of St. Louis, charges the recently appointed surveyor of the port in that city with being a blackmailer and selling nominations for local offices in that city. Turn the rascals out. si

The state officers and leading democrats at Indianapolis are busily engaged trying to escape responsibility for the appointment of an ex-convict to office. The administration finds excuse, in the recommendations given Conroy by the state officers, all of which suggests that the democrats are worse than novices in the art of government.

•be

The constitutional powers of the president to nominate or propose and ol the senate to confirm or rejfect are co-equal. The former can do nothing in the way of filling offices without the conynt of the senate while the latter is session, and the latter can only act on the president's selection. There is no ohance for a deadlock if both obey the clearlj expressed laws. There is meral obligation in the present situation, however, since the president has stated that .he would make no removals without cause. A removal, therefore, places some go it of stigma on the individual removed, and under the circumstances the senate may ask for information before seeming tx sanction the president's condemnation by con firming a successor. There is no law to make the presidett tell his reasons. He can do or not, just as he pleases. This is a very different thing from furnishing papers from archives whioh are publio property.

MUNICIPAL REFORM.

A FLAK TO GHAH6E CITY GOVBBH MEHTS.

Three Trustees or Commissioners Selected at Large—City Debts Growlog Larger In Defiance of the

Constitutional Frohi-

The following from the New Albany Ledger is particularly interesting to the people of this city, which now has a debt beyond the constitutional limit:

The recent publication of the-finding of Judge Lafollette in the case of Sackett against the city of New-Albany has set the citizens to thinking about municipal indebtedness and heavy taxes. Our reporter called Saturday on Hon. John H. Stotsenberg, and asked him what he thought of the present situation and what remedy should be adopted. Mr. Stotsenburg said: ''The people have the remedy in their own hands, and they ought to instruct the next legislature to take positive action. My views are radical. I believe that violent diseases require violent remedies. "The present city governments^ in Indiana must be abolished, and that speedily. Common council? seem to have no business capacity, and when coupled with them boards of aldermen are created to divide, shift and shirk responsibility, the evil is increased. Of course you understand that I am speaking of the legislative and executive bodies, and not of the particular individuals composing them. The general assembly should provide for the election at large by the voters of each city of three trustees or commissioners, who should manage the executive, legislative and judical affaire of their respective municipalities. They should receive adequate compensation, and the law could be so framed that men Of good business habits and who have prudently managed their own affairs could be placed upon the board of trustees. The plan works weli in Wash ington, D. C., and in Memphis, Tenn., and the people must adopt it in Indiana or some of our cities will be bankrupted. Of course the details of such a law can be readily prepared. "If any man thinks that my remedy is too severe, I point him to the municipal governments of the Falls Cities. "Take New Albany, for instance. The city is a very beautiful one, and ad' mirably situated in many respects. There is no better sits for manufacturing or residence purposes. But people who seek sites for either purpose ask, first of all, the questions: "Are your taxes high or low? Is your debt increasing or diminishing?" If our citizens could say, "The taxes are very low and we have no debt," or if they could even say, "Our taxe* are high now, but they are getting lower every year, and our city debt is be ing gradually reduced," the population of New Albany would steadily increase. But the truth is that our taxes, as well as the debt, are steadily increasing, and this city is drifting steadily and surely into bankruptcy.

Have you thought of the fact that in addition to the increase of the debt, the common council has persistently violated the fundimental, sovereign law of the state! Yes, our rulers have deliberately violated the express letter of the constitution and the people are expected to sub mit quietly. Let me give you the facts. "Article thirteen of the constitution of Indiana, which was adopted March 14, 1881, expressly prohibits any increase of the city debt in any manner or for any purpose, beyond two per centum of the value of the taxable property. On the 17th day of January, 1882, the city of New Albany owed $301,708.55, much more than the two per cent., and the debt has been steadily increasing ever since. This increase has been made in palpable disregard of the expressed will of the people of Indiana as embodied in the constitution, and what makes the matter more glaring is that the Supreme court in a suit in which our city was a party, have broadly stated that it was clearly the intent of the legislature in submitting and the people in adopting article 13 of the constitution to arbitrarily restrict the power of^cities to contract debts to a limited per centum of the taxable property and to require when that limit of debt, 2 per centum-, is reached, that they shall be prepared to pay the cash for whatever of value they may obtain, without incurring any further indebtedness for any purpose whatever. "What surprises me is that on the one hand the common council having express notice of the opinion, will go on from month to month in hard times voting to make the debt larger, and on the ouier band that people will take the bonds and obligations so issued, when they are presumed to know, and must know, that the constitution expressly declares that all bonds or obligations in excess of two per cent, given by the city shall be void. Somebody is bound to be the loser by these illegal proceedings in the long run. At the present time the city debt foots up as follows: Air Line B. B. bonds, 2c $166,500.00 Bonds for borrowed money (1878) 7 cents 40,000.00 Bonds for borrowed money (1880) 6 cents 60,000.00 Loans to Elizabeth Turnpike, bauds for 60, 4,800.00 Bonds for borrowed money, 6c.... 20,000.00 Note to Amos Hewitt 500.00 Bill of Sameweil Fire Alarm company. 8,825.00 City orders outstanding 75,000.00

Making a total of $460,125.00 "The monthly expenses of the city aggregate $7,000. Ten per cent, of the present levy goes for school purposes. Allowing for losses on the duplicate, as in former years, we shall find ourselves at the end of the fiscal year at the very least $415,000 in debt, without money in the treasury and without any sinking fund.

The chief justification or defence for all this fearful waste, this reckless «nd illegal system of financiering, is, that New Albany is no worse than her neighbors. That may be. The case of Jefiersonville is quoted in palliation. She owes, they say, nearly $400,000. She has loaned money to individuals and taken stock in manufactories, in violation of her charter, and besides her resources are smaller than ours. She needs then the same violent remedy. Evansville, groaning and travailing under a heavy debt, needs the same active medicine. To be governed and controlled by three business men on business principles won't hurt any city in Indiana. It would be good medicine for our neighbor Louisville, which has been badly managed^ heavily indebted, and needs municipal purification and cleansing. I have no doubt that Cincinnati could be much better controlled and governed and purified in the way I suggest. "Perhaps what I say is not very popular, but it is the honest truth.

The

people have no right to expect that some particular individual will champion their cause by bringing injunction suits and fighting their battles at his own cost. One man ought not to bear the whole burden of resisting the attacks of treasury wasters and plunderers in apy city. The people ought to speak out. They ought to petition* to remonstrate, to expel the men who mismanage their affairs. They .ought to demand a new: system of municipal government.

COURT BUSINESS.

Verdict for PliUntfJT in the BementAllen Salt—Several Interesting Oases. Judge Mack rendered a decision yesterday in the case of Geo. W.Bement vs. S. Allen and wife, deciding in favor of the plaintiff. This decision gives the title to the Allen homestead on north Sixth-and-a-half street to Mr. Bement.

Yesterday W. P. Diamond, arrested for stealing a cheap diamond pin from the room of a dead man, was brought before Judge Mack. The judge said he had examined the case, and would fix the punishment at one year in the penitentiary, disfranchisement for one year and a fine of $1 and costs. "Much obliged to you/' said Diamond, as he took his seat

Frank Felton was called beforfe the judge on the charge of the larceny of some clothing. The judge said he had examined into his case, and found that his parents were respectable people. The prisoner had acknowledged that he was intoxicated at the time the act was committed. In consideration of his' former good conduct, the respectability of his parents, and that he had been in jail for some time, the court would discharge him. "Thank you," said Felton, and he left the court room.

The case of Kaufman vs. Harris was called. This case involves several hundred dollars, and* is the outgrowth of a misunderstanding growing out of the transfer of elevator A several years ago. The judge said the case was complicated, one of long standing, and about the best way to dispose of it was to "split the difference," and give each party half. "My God, judge, I can't stand that 1" said Attorney I. N. Pierce, who appeared for pl^intifi^ "There area thousand or twelve hundred dollars involved in the case."

The court eould not see there was that much, and thought his proposition was the best. However, no ruling-was made.

Judge Mack called attention to the Brown baby case, and thought it ought to be disposed of. It had worried the justice's court, had two trials in the Circuit court, and was not at an end. The case will probably come up again at the next term.

The case of Adamson vs. Krietenstein, to settle a difficulty growing but of the dissolution of partnership, was called. One of the attorneys in the case announced that the principal points at issue were settled, and the only point in controversy was a division of the profits for about fifteen days' business. This point will also be settled by arbitration.

Judge Wilkins, of Danville, and Col. VanSellare and Mr. J. C. Ficklin, of Paris, were in the city yesterday. The judge met Messrs, Van Sellars and ficklin here to hear argument in an injunction suit. The case is that of Arnold vs. Arnold, Edgar county parties. The plaintiff ^nd defendant were divorced, and the plaintiff gave defendant a note as part payment For support. Plaintiff now brings an injunction suit to enjoin defendant from collecting the note.

Wm. Needham, charged with the larceny of a shovel, waS" released by Judge Mack.

The present term of court ends today. The February term begins Monday, February 8th. The new grand jury will also convene on that date.

GIVE US BREAD.

The Laborers' Cry Echoed by Stock Brokers in a Mimic Commaiilstlc Parade on 'Change. Special to the Commercial Gazette.

New Yobk, N. Y., January 28.—Fun is often directing us toward serious things. I am reminded of this fact by the scene which took place to-day down at the stock exchange. When the business get dull a number of the younger brokers formed themselves into a miniature commune and went around the room howling "Give us more room." A moment later they took the laborers' cry of "We want more bread, give us bread." Of course there was an irony in all this that has far deeper meaning than the brokers intended. These men who simply stand at the table every dav and deal off a chance have little understanding of what the cry of a citizen in want of bread means. Their menace was for pastime while the boss gamblers were resting. But the man who works clamors for something to eat for himself and family that shall keep life within him. Of course this little scene at the stock exchange was simply pleasantry vet it has a harsh sound, and calls up reflections for the future that may be worthy of consideration. The market was dull. People who bought for a January rise have not had their expectations fulfilled, and there is a weight in nearly all financial speculations. Most brokers think there will be a strong market within a month, but generally operations seem to be short. That is why the thoughtless members of the exchange clamored for something to eat Beading general mortgage bonds was a great purchase, and went up two points. George A. Huhn, of Clendenning & Co., bought a half million. Other operators went in for them quite heavy.

1 Cost ol Lighting Streets. Electric lights have not taken the place of gas in lighting the streets of leading cities to ny great ex tent. New York has 23,038 gas lights and 647 electric lights its streets. Philadelphia' has 13,555 gas lights, Boston has 9,781 gas lights and 401 electric lights, and Baltimore has 5,191 gas lights and 2h3 electric lights.

The cost per annum of maintaining a street gas light varies considerably in the different cities, as is shown by the comparative summary which follows of the amounts paid by each city named:

New Orleans.,.. .$24.00 Washington .... 22.00 Dayton 21.11 Rochester. 18.12 Cleveland 17.50 Anbnro 17.50

Baltimore. $46.19 Bichmond...... 44.00 Boston........ 81.85 New York 25.08 Jersey City .... 25.00 Burlington 25.00

From this table it appears that neither the size nor the location of a city has anything to do with the cost of its lighting facilities. The average cost of a single tight for the twelve cities given is $28.44 per annum, or a little over seven cents anight.

BLANCH ARD.

IhBttt

Daniel, JESvWns, of OreeMbastl*^ I Blancbartf for $8,000?Yesterday Daniel Evans, ofQreetf&stle, through his attorney^ Mr. 13. A. Hays began suit in the Vigo Circoit court on note against Ben Blanchard, as principal, and James E. McGrew, as surety. The plaintiff alleges that on the 25th of September, 1885, Blanchard borrowed from him $2,000, giving his note maturing in four months, 8 per cent, interest The same remains wholly unpaid. The plaintiff asks for judgment for principal and interest and $125 attorney's fees.

The giving of this note caused oniB of the four indictments against Blanchard. In consideration that McGrew become his surety Blanchard agreed, it was alleged before the grand jury, to give McGrew deeds to land, and that Blanchard never owned the lands or had authority to dispose of them. Democrats Condemned by Their Own

Press.

Washington Poet (Bern.) The offense of die political methods of Ohio democrats "is rank and smells to heaven." Instead of the plans which experience and sagacity suggested, the devices of the forger and the thief have been adopted. Corruption has stalked about in hideous nakedness and has not been ashamed. And the grasp of a mercenary hand has been so laid on the springs and mechanism of party action that the purposes of the state democracy have been discredited and its methods involved in indelible disgrace.

This downward tendency in Ohio politics has recently reached" the zero point. Those who have betrayed the best interests of the democracy must-be awarded the treatment and doom of traitors. But'should^ nothing be done (by the Ohio organization)— should the evil influence which has blighted ttie party remain unchecked, then it will be strongly felt_ that it may be the duty, as it is the right, of the, national democracy to condemn and disown all affiliations which wbuld draw to it disgrace, humiliation and defeat ».

The Latest Photographic Discovery. With a lens made of rock salt it may be possible to photograph in the dark I The Photographic News states that Abnev has succeeded in preparing plates Which are sensitive to the rays lying beyond the red end of the spectrum—the dark heat rays—and with such plates used with a rock salt lens there should be a possibility of photographing bodies which possess a high temperature, although that temperature may be far below that needed to render them self-luminous.

Nonsense in Court Oireles-

Chicago Tribnne. It is asserted that the business of calling in Washington has beoome so thoroughly a business that two-thirds of those who exchange cards are not sufficiently acquainted to recognize each other on the street This may be "Jeffersonian simplicity" or it may be a fad of the season, bnt whatever it is it deeerves to be classed as a royal idiocy. A great deal of nonesense is developing in "court circlee."
