e|a|,0I,t, improninaib without mcreasing the tax levy for state purposes, •or borrowing the necessary moneys to meet the additional cost of such improvements. Considering the excellent credit of the si ale, have no hesitation recommending '.lie boi rowing of the iiccessary funds in preference to increasing the rate of taxation. The rate of inter

cat which the state would he required to pay would not excecd one-half of iu.KiMrlnol famavfirs of

the the

rate which individual taxpayers state would be compelled to pay, and sinking fund to nay the bonds as rapidly as the state would have the right to redeem would finally liquidate the stales indebtedness.

The ntt receipts lo the general fund from all sources, exclusive of §257,036 75 advanced by counties and §(i79,-lo to received on loans for the fiscal year ending October ,il, ISSo, were tl ,421,240.10, while the expenditures from the same fund, exclusive of advances returned to counties during such year, puisnant to appropriations, were $2,083,085.61. The net receipts of the same fund, exclusive of advances by counties, for ths fiscal year ending October ol, 1886, were SI,421,350 84, while the expendi. tines from 'the same fund, exclusive of advances returned by counties, dur iog such year, pursuant to appropriations, were $l,fiI9,53/.73. The expenditures of the last year are not eqaal to (hose of the former year, because the revenues of the state have not been uuf ficient to meet the appropriations.

The state is paying annually abont one-fifth of its entire revenue as interest on its domestic debt, which consists of non-negotiable school bonds of

$3,904,-

783.22, issued in 1867 and 1868, bearing 6 per cent, interest a non-negotiable l'urdtie university bond of

$340,000,

issued in 1881, bearing per cent* interest, and a non-negotiable state university bond of £60,000, bearing 5 per cent, interest and 1 earnestly recommend a reduction in (lie interest on the $3,004,786.22 school bonds to 3 or ''h per cent., as I believe the revenues to the sjhool fund will still continue to be sufficient. If. however, il should be deemed preferable, inasmuch as the state can borrow money at a much lower rate of interest, a lom could be authori/.ed to pay off the entire non-negoliable school bonds, and ."\lter the payment thereof, provide that the money shall be distributed to the counties in the manner heretofore provided by law, and that all school funds lis loaned in the manner now directed at a rate of interest not exceeding (i per cent, per annum, blither method, 1 believe, would meet v.itli •'popular approval, if a funding loan for 6ucb purpose were negotiated at a rale of interest not exceeding 3 per cent, which 1 believe to ba possible, it would suit in annual saving of interest of 177,1 13 50, besides providing a large amount to be loaned to tho people of the slate at f-tir rate of interest.

It is evident that the revenues are hirtily .sufiicieut meet the current expenses of the slate government, and with decreased appraisement of nearly S51-. 000.000 of the property in the state subjoi.l to taxation, rJiows conclusively that the jiioiuy necessary to complete and »-jtiij) now puplic buildings must be raised either by increated taxation or the negotiation of a temporary loan, in order to provido for the wants cf the hislearid ilm cm.jileiion and pijnipment of Use public buildings now in

As a means of crating siukiii^ fund for the final exi.ip.^iishment of the state debt, 1 would recommend that iho present tax of (wo cents, levied l'or state house purposes, he continued permanently, and llie proceeds used in paying \T of or purchasing tho state's bonds tor tMfi V..IKJl«tion and destruction, thus liq•j'datio" the state's indebtedness, caused by tiiKConetN.clion of the new public 1 uiUiin^'j, without iuc.vasing the p.esenl l-ate of taxation. With ths siuns of increased prosperity, 1 trust that we may reasonably anticipate some increase in the value of tile personal property of the slite, ami that the current receipts will bo ample lo discharge alt current expense^ nlior providing for the present contingencies. But 1 assur you this can not be done without your assistance in /.eitlotisly protecting the treasury from doubtful ciairas and extravagant api'roprialions.

INDIANAFOLIS January 7.—There

was a large attendance of visitors at the

capitol to day, although nothing pa

Oa

ticularly exciting was expected. Thursday the senate adopted a resolution

to meet with the house this morning to

hear the governor's message read, but

when the senate assembled this action

was reconsidered, the protests ol Tlepub

licans being unavailing and the message was read in the senate by the clerk of that

body. The refusal to go into joint ses

sion caused much comment, and

was accepted as meaning that the

Democrats will not consent to

joint sseeion for any purpose. This surmise wss strengthened at the after noon session when the senate passed a resolution declaring there was no vacancy in the office of lieutenant governor, declining to go into joint session for the purpose of canvassing and declaring the result of the vote at the November election, and adjourning until luesday. Hie day appointed for canvassing and announcing the vote for lieutenant governor is Monday.

In the house to-day the Republican majority, in retaliation for the extraordinary rules adopted yesterday by the senate, a set of regulations fully as arbitrary as those of the upper body. The eflcct in either bouse wilf be that the majority can summarily and |uickly unseat any member of the minority, rightfully or wrongfully.

The governor's message, owing to the refusal of the senate to participate in ioint session, was laid on the lable without reading, and the house adjourned until Monday.

It is now understood that the speaker of I'ne house will, on Monday, declare and publish Ihe result of the election for lieutenant-governor, and that when the senate assembles on Tuesday ho will appear antl as?«rt his rights as presiding officer of that body. His claim will be ienied, and what resources he will take is as yet a matter of conjecture. The air is full of surmises and rumors, and quo warranto proceedings are suggested and also a possibility of two legislatures.

Tho Senatorgbip,

Special to tlia E*pre6e. INTHASATOLIS January 7.—The arrival of Congressman Holman, and the official announcement that he is a candidate for United States senator, has stirred up the animals on the Democratic side. The friends of McDonald claim that he will be the caucus nominee, but that is not so certain, "l.lolman is a hustler, and he has several of his heelers and backers here, and they are not slow. W. D. H. Hunter, the collector of the Lawrenceburg district, and Holman's chief wire-puller, is here. Ilolman gaya the important question is not "who shall be elected senator?1'but "can the Democracy hold their majority of two on ajoint ballot?" But Holmanis sly. and while he is talking this to the candidate he is at work for Holman. The News says this evening: "If Governor Gray were free from the lieutenant governor complication, he would make the race exceedingly lively for bis ,"3inpetitora, and a gentleman who ought to know told a News reporter last night that .Mr. Gray, at the present time, had an "absolute majority of the

Democrats, and could gel the nomination without the least trouble. It is by no means improbable that he will yet do so, and if he thought the field was clear he would. It is'understood that the governor thinks that there will be no dec lion of a senator, but he has not yet determined, from studyiog the law and the authorities, whether it is in his power to appoint, should thcrp be such a contingency. In the'meantime, the Republicans are sticking to Senator Harrison, and appear to bf confident thathewill be elected ultimately. He in consultation with the party leadeis, in and out ol the legislature, at the Dsnlson last evening."

The reports of this committee kre given priority over svery other business, including motions lo adjourn, to lie oiMhe table, for the previous question, et The report of this committee rn^y be taken up at any instant, no matter what the senate is considering, Moreover, tbe committee's report is subject to no amendment or discussion, except by the chaimiso, for 10 provides that the chairman may spesU cn hour on his report without beiog subject to interruption. The previous question only can be offered in interruption. The purpose oi ^11 tbic is patent. If the senate finds it necessary to itre out' republicans, it maj drop all business ln«!.a.ntly, call up tbe re("**' til? ejection iion?rjjittee, and adopt a report seanug contesting Deifiocr^.',® without delay or opposition. It votes *e u.efcdedi therefore, to elect a T'nitcd Stales senator, when the house has passed upon tbe various contests, the Democratic senate can furnish them from among its contesting brethren in a jifly. The handwriiiagon the wall is Jim Rice's.

To provide for the contingency of success on the part of Colonel Robertson, lieutenant governor, securing ths presidency of the senate, it ia made the duty of the secretary—who, of course, is Democratic, whatever may be the late of tbe presidency- on tbe demand of two senators to put the question, in esse the president does net promptly do so. The majority, of course, will recognizj the

secretary rather than a Republican president. The general direction of the senate chamber is given to the keeping of the door-keeper, instead of the president, and the right to name senators to bear messages to the house is taken fiom ihe president. In a word, the Democratic senate is prepared, by ils new rule to support its president so long as be is Smith, and to leave him a mere figurehesid—and a disfigured one at that—as soon as he becomes liobertson.

The Senate.

After ilia preliminary political struggle in the senate yesterday morning, in which the Democracy accomplished their purpose of keeping Mr. Green Smith in the chair and of making arbitrary and unusual rules for ihe government of the body, but more particularly to further their political purposes, the proceedings were uneventful. At liie afternoon session a number of bills were in troduced, among them the following: By Mr. Bailey, providing for the appointment of a state boiler inspector by Mr. Anderson, providing for the erection of a stale soldiers' and sailors' monument by Mr. McDonald, of Whitney, to establish and maintain the sol diers' and sailors' orphan home by Mr. Rahra, to repeal the intimidation laws by Mr. Tnompson, of Marion, to authorize the erection of a Hendricks monument upon any grounds belonging to the state by Mr. Trippett, create an ap. pel late court, the state to be divided in three districts by Mr. Schloss, to regulate dentistry in thestate and by Mr. Dresser, reducing the compensation of the reporter of the supreme court.

The proceedirgn in the senate to-day ware relieved from monotony by outbursts of politicil feeling, but nothing particularly eventful occurred, aside from the action taken regarding the governor's message. Yesterday the_ senate adopted a resolution to meet with the house this morning to hear the message read, but immediately after the opening exercises this morning a change of front __i. 4 L«i Uh Q*nntna T? SllAtl'fl

wa3 indicated that by S3nator Bailey's motion to reconsider this action. It was carried by a parly vote, and upon the order of President Srailh, tbe clerk reed the message to the senate, the protests of the Republican members against euch a course being unavailing, all the proceedings being under the operations of the previous question. This action was much commented upon, ami it is understood to mean the Democratic majority in the senate are not willing to take chances on a joint session for any purpose for fear that during its cont nuance the vote for lieutenant governor may be canvassed, and it indicates a determination not to go into the canvass of Ibis vote on Monday next. This compli catcs matters considerably. One of (be Democratic members this morning said there would not be a joint meeting Ihip session, and if this should prove^to be true, there will be no election of I'nited States senator, ftate librarian or e.ny of the offices controlled by the legislature.

The lime of the senate was largely taken up with this mailer this morning. When the reading of the jourcal was dispensed with, Senator Campbell offered a esolution lo change the record so as to make it read "Senator Smith," instead of

President Smith," but this was defeated by a party vote, "in fact Ihe "piily vote" did about everything that wa done tc-day.

Mr. Morse, of this county, introduced a bill lor the appointment of a boiler inspector, and Mr. Grave 1i\!l for the mainienance the Soldiers' and Sailors' Orphans' home. The latter also introduced a resolution deploring the death of John A. Logan, which was passed, _fter Mr. Patton, of Sullivan, had moved to lay it on the table.

The house had scarcely been called to order this morning when the Republicans, following the illustrious example of tbeir political opponents in the other end of the 'capitol, teok decisive steps to fortify their rights of the majority by tbe passage of rules almost identical in substance and effect with those adopted by the senate yeelarday, giving the committee on elections extraordinary rights and privileges and^tbeir hesinets precedence over p.lt other. Tbe .^solution incorporating the rules was offered by Mr. Buckles, of Delaware, who moved the previous question, and pendiug its second by tbe house. Mr. Jewotl moved that when tbe house adjourn, it bo be until Monday afternoon Speaker Hay re ruled him out of order, from which decision he innde a persistent but unsuccessful eflort to .peal, but it wa3 not carried. Mr. Kellison asked for a reading of the resolutions, but this was denied him by the speaker and he appealed from the decision. An acrimonious discussion ensued, in which Mr, Jewett defined the Democratic policy by saying "We have no disposition to interime with the majority in the legitimate exercise of their power, but if they are going to resort to •'.nnnliamentsry, unconstitutional and outrageous actions., we will oppose them in every way possible.'' when the speaker fiuggf«ted thai it was "too for a motion."

Thesrtick embodies letters from Dr. McGlynn, John McMackin, Ihe executive head of the Labor bifiliO them. archbishop charges that Henry George tried to approach him politically. The article is written in a strong vein of denunciation of Rome charges that Ro ne has always been leagued with the rich against the poor says tbe most Catholic people under (he sun—ihe Dish— have always held !o Ihe theory that tha land was for the people and not for individual ownership that five yean sgo. Bishop Duggan, ol Clonfarl, said *s much to him (Henry Georg") and bles«ed him that he (the bishop) said that, when a hoy, silting by a turf fire in the went of Ireland, he heard tbe sitpe doctrines from the lips of men v.ho never spoke a word of hiiighwh.

A like title for a similar oflsns' will be assessed in the United Stairs district court at Indianap ol is if il ha3 not already been done, and then the operators will have to face the music in Coles county where the grand jury returned an indictment against them for violaling the slate law and perhaps obtaining money undei false pretense.

each met at a point of rendezvous at the same hour. The plan was will carried out, for none of the government or police officials had received any notice of ti*e demonstration and were only mr.de aware of the fact by the sudden sppearance in the uroetfl an immense army of unemployed workmen crying "Give us work, or give us bread." A committee of the unemloyed waited on the Rt, Hon. Charles

Ritchie, president of the lccal governuianl board, and detailed their grievances to that official, rcqucaiing the government to adopt measures for the employment of wor!:m?u on public works. Mr. Ritchie itceived the depuu-.ti kindly, but said he was unable to romise them any thing. He would •jowever, place their grievances ?fore tho cabinet at is iscsl leeting. The crowd then repairoc' to rafalgar square, where p.:i indignation meeting was lit Id and resolutions adopted protesting against tho apathy of the government. Many shopkeepers in and around Trafalgar square, hastily put up their shutters and closed their ores, under the lclki thai another1 icialist demonstration was about to take place. The crowd, however, was rlerly, and after the adoption of resoitions quietly dispersed.
