Them is plenty law against gambling. E-iforcu the law.

Mayor Kolsein rises t^ual to the cow situation. Why not gambling?

We've got the track and the horses, too, ami we will have the best racea ever held in Indiana.

Will Mayor Kolsem wait until the Ml regular meeting of the police board to take a stand on the gambling ques* tion

The president is a truthful muti. He docs not conciiipts his enemies by cccepiing invitations unreservedly. He always makes the reeeivation, "If business will permit'' and it seldom docs.

Senator Voorhees thinks that the blunders of the administration may be traced to tho baleful influence of the Mugwump. Tho Mugwump peses as the only purely pattiotic character of tliea^e. Yet he is politically, neither fiili, (ifiih nor foul. Tho JX-mocrats ro fuse l-.im and he is declined with thanks by Republicans'.

Tho lover of the present age sccmd to be a pugnacious b'ioody-njinded erca!!! re who goes about armifd with a bowis and a seven shooter ready to remark to the o! jeet of his attention?, "your aflections or your life.'1 S:vcral mniJciu have perished, and ethers have escajfd through the metallic portions of thebuctle and corset, which fortunately are bullet proof.

1 he cows are not seen so frequently abcut thestreets sicce the Express poinied out to Mayor Kolsein the way to abate the nuisance. There is an occasion now for a Ifader in the work of taking down the fences. At Indianapolis after several years of sgitalio.i ?o protection was obtained until the people took the cow by

the horns, so to speak, and tore down their fencts, »fter which it was'^ound to be much easier lo enforce the ordinance, Who will lead in Terre Haoie?

The ec'ence cf war is to be revolutionized. There are all sorts innova tione, that axe likely to effect as great a change rs the discovery oi gunpowder bicoght about in the middle ages. Ge/manv has a pick of blcodhcnnds, a batallion of aeronauts skilled and drilled like dr«gcons in the art of manipulating air-skips that are propelled by steam a new explosive will succeed powder which does away with smoke, and last of all the bicycle will be utilized, in what manner has not been defiaitely slated. These could, in one event, faciltate a hasty retreat, and there are crises wb?n this must be considered.

Mr. C!e/eland is not particularly interested in 'any porticn of the United .^tate? lying this side of the Alleghaciea. About all he knows of it is thiough the votes that it gave him two years ago, c.r from visiting excursionists and office seekers. He could, not tell if he were in Cincinnati or Chicago, should he visit either city, unless he were informed of the fact, tince the pictures in geograpt ies and railroad gnidts sre not sum-ciettly-realistic to msfee a man certain of his whereabout?, and it is not certain that he ever consults either, even if they were relia'1 He has, however, made a break and haviag set bis foot within the sacred precincts cf Mt. Vernon he may venture still further from home. But it is hardly likely that he will ever visit Indiana if he should come wesh

The fit. Louis and Indianapolis fchool boards crs of tha usual kind, mposed of men with a ho'„by for costly high schools. The £t. Louis Post-Dispatch says St. Louis is "the only great city in the country which rej )ices in the simullar.eons contemplation of a half mil'iion-schiol-h(.u?e going up while there is not money enough in the treasury to pay the eai.iries of tho teachers." The Indianapolis newspaper"! iof several years have called tftSntibii to the same policy there, and without exception the CLK ,T press hss sounded a^.ain and again a warning aiainstthe high school hobby. We've ha it here in Terre Haute. The city was forced into debt beyond the consti tuiional limit, teachers' salaries scaled and children kept- oill of graded schools i.ir want of acoomiSodations that $s0,000 or §90,000 might be iven to the pet. ggg

It is question if the new methods cf education are an improvement upon the old. It is certuin thatin allolher fields nothing of value can ba acquired exespt by bard, unceasing labor and by the closest application. What is lasting in literature is not the result of intermittatil, crratic flashes of genius, but has bron created by effort as exhausting as that of Ihe mechanic or the professional man. Clubs and sccielies, now a day, pi jfess to have invented easy molhcds jf mi king scholars out of people who have no natural tRcte for bctjkB, beyond a desire t? keep in the new fishioa of being well-read. This is to take the place c-f theoid fashioned digging cy which oldfashioned scholars were made. We may bccome a people as Gail Hamilton terms if, ''well smattered,'' btit it is icot probable that a higher standard of intelligence will bo created by easjr and edpcrucial means.

In Indanapolis already there is a pro test against the Standard Oil company's prtsence in the g« development. A mcetinp of citizens has been held and long resolutions adopted. The council has betm asked to give a home company with ?o00,000 capital exclusive rights, and the conncil is being pulled and hauled by both sides. The truth is that the S'.audard company has made itself so obnoriens that no matter how innocent may be its entry in a city, as at Indianapolis for instance, its methods everywhere create alnrm for the future. It hesitates at nothing to secure ft monopoly. At Buffalo it burned rival oil refineries and t\fro millionaire members of the greaL company have jint been can vicled of the crime. It has the money and experience to do what Indianapolis now wants done, to bring gas to its doors. The local capital hesitates in ouch a big undertaking, and unless the $£00,000 company i3 formed soon the Standard will capture tho town.

Dr, Talmage advises that money be given tho poor rather than tracts. He migii'. have gone a Step further ahd advise that fiey be given work fud adequate wages. No poor man who is worthy of assistance wants charity, tie is more than williGg to give au equivalent in labor for all that he gets. He desires to do this, and bis own dignity, honesty and self respect would .-ern It him to do nothing lesa v.bin aby one induces a man to accept something for nothing an-! makes hirri believe that he is entitled to EUjiport wi'hout work, he star's hitu o: the down grade to pauperism. This is the whole secret of vice and poverty. The classes who are maintained at public expense are almost invariably waulina'in moral sensibility, and have been made more determined in their wortl.leesuc-i by injudicious sentimentaiiMn. There are, now ar.d thei', cases where men h?ve been overtaken by misfortune, and after long lives of hard work have been unable to make provision for their sdppotl iii old age. Such men will receive the help they deserve, while others Who come to want through idleness and vice art fcet greatly fo be pitied.

It Will now be made kno^F.i wbitiwrr the fraternity dining the two weeks have been able to tighten their grip on the mayor to the extent of securing further immunity from the officers of the law. It is very well known JW that his hor or has said the faro tnfes should ba closed, but un less he doe? something to that end immediately it may bs taken for granted thst he has succumbed entirely to the influence of the men who spent hundteda

the great difficulty with the gamblers arLse from the fact that if tley were given an inch they took a mile. It begins to look ss if they had taken the town, the mayor and the Gazette included. The latter a week ago said the question was to come up then in the police board. Since that announcement our contemporary has hsd nothing further to say on the subject. It has every appearance of one suffering from a fit of deep dicgost. The Erpres, has hopes that it wiil yet unburden its mind.

The Commercial Gazitto has givsn up crit icizing prominent historical characters &sd has tarcod its attention to hotel salad. It has at last bit npon a eobject which it can discus* severely and at length without hurting anybody's feelings.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.

tbe Colored School Facilities. To ih'c Ediior of the Eiv'rces: Slit:—If you will ploaoe allow me to something tnrough the colamns of your paper, my race will feel grateful to you. Do the good people of Terre Haute know, do tho people who are in favor of a liberal education to everybody, know that the poor downtrodden and oppressed colorol peoplo are withou school advantsRes, and never had any? A visit to the schools will verify what saj'. Let the poople of tender henrti vitii tue colored echaols. in tho Third ward tho school board, because they are politically opposed, took away our school. Thuy placed nr children in a litt'e rented shanty on Becoid afreet that had, for ten years, been a houao of prostitution. They made two dark rooms in thin shanty, that has windows only on one side of each room, and pat in a large stove, nearly as large as the room. Here Professors Stewart and- JncksiA ar» asked to eko out a miserable existence. In the fifth ward tfcey did no bett-r. ^The board rented a shati'y on i?oiiri&ent!i etlect. tliat naa a yard eifihteeen feet wide, between Main and Ch^Btnut streets in the middle of the strefit for our chi'dron to attend school. Thr people of the neighborhood got mad because it was in the middle of tho square, and limit a high board fence covering all tho windows on one side. When it rains and gets cloudy the children can not seo to do anything. In this placo Prof. Meyzaek is a?ked to teach. He has onlv one little room, and is compelled to teaoh all the grades'in the whole Byetfm by himself. How he maneges to do all this, enough for five teachers, tho Lord only knows, I don't. In Bagdad otir colored schoolj the bast colored school we have, is given to white teachers, jind yet, th9y 'call it s, Eejisrato schop}. Why are not all colored schools tAnght by colored teachers, or why is any tanght by colo.od teachers? If the schools are to be ni'ied why not mix I t\em in the righ manner? The co'ored people will not continue to enbmit to this inja6tiee. Our,children ara taking su'.k from being compelled to be crowden in noorly van tilated shanties. Onr colored teachprs are' good teachers but they ar? not supplied with things to teaoh with. Is it ri«ht that we should be so treated? Lit the ciod people driro by the colored school buildings and sop for themselves. Still this Is a christian Ir.nd, If some missionaries would help our schools along wo Would be grateftd.

The Boom Crank?.

To the Eflilovof the E.virrs?:

SIB:

Every organization, religions, political, labor, and law has its cranks, and each department lias its fools that tho fool-killer has beau unablo so far to ranch and impound, and thsy are at largo deprodating on the sr citable soft-hoads and the unwary and credulous of ths community. Among the latest ar. rivals are the Salvation Army and the boom cranks who are doing up oar city in great style, bn.t the lesser lights are being overshadowed I the greater, and the boom cranks aro on top, and are doing as much damage as their limited vision can take in Of tha true situation of tho business affairs Of out ciy actuated by thnir insatiablo desire to get something for nothing find leave tho victims of their avarice to hold tho snck. What honest man with brains above an oyster can see any boom in Terre Haute ovor and above a legitimate improvement in tho very dull times onr coxmucity lias been Kuffrrirg under for somo time patt. If these boom cranks are honest but ignorant of the damages they are doing A onr city they should stop and ask their better informed neighbors how by their attempt to get up a boom in business that does not exist, they aro assisting in creating false impressions that are disturbing the legitimate business of onr city, creating an Unrest in all the depaitmentsof labor, making the relations of the employer and the employee very nnplaasant and that will ond in evil to all parties. Some time since an attempt waa made to boom the city, tho result of which was bad, very bad. The city was flooded with moohanioi and laborers, sfi9king tho adrsntage of the boom, bnt no boom came. 0: the contrary a greater depression in bnsiness, hundreds of incchsnicsand labororors ont of employment and want and destitution afar than JU the face. The benevolent of tho city, as well as ttio dty and conntyanthorities, wero importuned and appealed t~ to furnish means of subsistence to the laboring arid industrial class for the time being. Such wiil be tho inevitable roeiilt of the present insane attempt to create in ths minds of the paople great prosperity In our city, for already meOhailifis sad laborers are coming to this place from other toWfca ib expectancy of large wages and great expectation to como of tho boom in Terre Haqte.

Will some ofio of ths boomers rise and tell the people what the boom !s to liotfie from. Certainly not in the building business, for with all the blowing about tho gror.t amount of bnilding to bo done in his p'ace, an experienced bnil.lersajs the work at present oy which the big boom is tasod, will Jast, but little, if any, over thren months, with enough mechanics und laborers in t1 city now to do doubls the work that is in progress or talked about. Th'ii what doe8 it consist of or in? few sherpers buying and selling real estate lo one and other or options (all getting rich in a dayl for !h« purpose of exciting the real estate business tt:at they may make a profit thereby from 'he unwary honest man. Bo not deeeived. Let the people wait and see ths bottom drop out of their misorable, unholy schemes.

GAS VS. COAL.

QM in Tern. Bant* Would tiaiitbsite! iAuinaa*. Mr. L. F. Perdue has just returned from a trip to the gas fields of northern Indiana. He spent the greater part oi his time at Kokomo, and speaks in high terms of the sights there. He Mys that he thought that the coal business was "done for" in Kokomo and othef cities where gas has been strnck in payio# quantities. He expresM* the opinion tbat if gas is found in this c'Jy it will put a Ooiettis npon the ooal trade within a very short (imfi. "I tell TOO," said he, "there wouldn't be a coaf deiilet in Terre Hatate in two yean after gas is struck. There- wouldn't be anything for them to do." Mr. Perdue stated that he was informed that already two thirds of the residences of Kokomo an using natural gas for fnel. It answers all pnrpcs?s. It is conducted into cocking stoves and heating stoves alike. The streets are all torn up, workmen are engaged in putting in pipes as rapidly as possible. Every thing is booming. Real estate has ad vanced wonderfully. In some instances property has donbled in value. "I saw one piece cf properly," said Mr. Purdue, "which was ofiered for sale at $7,000 a few months. It is now held at just $14,000."

Mr Perdtie takefl a somewhat gloomy view oi the sitdatiofi in Terre Haute as regards the coal business. The feuorter suggested that if the coal trade is to be utjuelched in this city by the finding of gas that it would be well for the cosl dealers to organize a company and drill for gas. Mr. Perdue replied that he was already a stockholder in a new company. Not all the stock has yet been subscribed but will be within the next few days. It is the intention of the new company to begin boriig for gas as soon as it is possible to get the company organized and the machinery here. The exact pbcp Where the well Is to be sank has net been determined-upon. It is probable that it \H11 b'c located some distance away from the city. A ntimber of places have been suggested. One pilace named is in the bluffs beyond Macksville. It ia said that the conditions in this locality are favorable for the finding of gas. Mr. Perdue is not at all sangnine about finding gas in paving quantities here. He says that gas will undoubtedly be struck but he i? not confident by any means that the flow will be of any practical Value He believes that the only way tc test the g:S ciae«tion is to u?e drils.

An Express reporter visited the gas well the other morning and found the workmen just lowering the drills, #h:ch had as renal been taken ont after borine a f«w feet. Mr. Diall said the drills were still working in the layer of hard limestone, and were progressing slowly, at the rate of from fifteen to twenty feet p6f daj'. A sample of the litne rock had just bfeefi piliapeil ttpj acd was found to b« dafkef fn cpl^r than that taken out at the prev'oiis i^et. The depth of the well is now about one tliotlSana tefit and barring all accidents the workmen expect to make fcood progress from now on. Mr. Diall gave his opinion of tfce Clinton well, which he vieited one lay last week. He said: "I don't think it amounts to ftsuch i', indeed, anything. The hole is small, only one anti three-quarter inches, and with the gas there issues from the well a strong Salt water. This sites the g£S a chlorine tioier afld #heh if is lighted the flame is a bright orange fioiof IVhplly flnllke any gas coming from deep veils!. I.beJlBtfe it is the same aa the explosive fire daiiif.' found in mines, and is wholly unlike natural gas. The gas and water alternate in coming frorp the well. When the water gains the ad ant sue a stream spurts tip for four or five feet, atid i*ben ths gas overcomes the water a flame cf about the same height shoots up. the water was confused the pr esure might be sufficient to carry it up thirty or forty feet, but at present it comes from the mouth of the well. ''Mow are gas tfells rated?'' "A. l0,000,OOtl. foot Well Is consid ered first class, a 5,000,000 foot well sec ond clsfss, .aiid all under 5,000,000 are considered light." "Do you atill have as many visitors as when the drilling was first commenced?"

Ob, yes we have almost no end ot visitorp, and anions them two or three committees a week. Many of these committees afford much amusement. Nearly every one has the same old story to tell of a man digging a Well and striking gas. A committee of two from a neigh boring city came here and wanted the men- to sign a con tract to go to work in «five days. The old story was gone over, and they said the men would have easy work at their plage as there was not much rock in the earth. Another committee wanted the drillers to guarantee either gas or coal at a depth of 1,000 feet or

Another came here at night,

and about twelve o'clock traced the drillers to their boarding house, roused them out of bed and wanted them to sign a contract to go to work in a week. All want wells put down immediately as they are sure of striking gas, and desire to make wonderful terms with the contractors.

Gas Notes.

Martinsville has granted an exclusive franchise to the Martinsville Natural Gas, Oil and Water company for ten years.

Mr. B. V. Marshal and Mr. Horace Smith will go to Indianapolis to-mor row to consult with the gas drillers there as to the advisability of opening up the two oil wells in this city.

All of the so-called big wells of the state have been successfully packed with two-inch packing, but so far the Dunkirk well is flowing out of the five-and-three-quarter-inch tubing. Practical men, who have charge of the well, have so far been unable to cope with the monster. The company will try four-inch packing.

Seven gas wells are runnina night and day in Muncie, wasting eas as there is now no demand for it. Display arches of gas pipes are built across the streets, and at night *re lighted up, one arch containing fifty burners, each burner throwing a flame of three fett. The heat from these arches is intense and can be felt half a block away.

The gas well at Y,aFontaine, Wabash county, was drilled in and the workmen were rewarded with a splendid showing 200 I gas at a depth of only six feet in 1 Trenton rock. The flow caused a flame twenty feet high. The well is 900 feet 775!,deep. The owners in the afternoon de-

When withdrawn a column iof broken rock, water and gas shot nearly a hundred feet in the air and over the top of the derrick. The well is the equal of any yet found in Indiana.
