THK New York Sun's advice to it» party ill Congress is ''Democrats, get together" and the country at large last fall, said, -"get out."

THE House committee has reported in favor of abolishing the State Gas Inspector's office. That is proper. It is a useless and unnecessary office if it is to be •conducted in the future as in the past aud only made a place where some man could draw a salary without rendering au equivalent service.

THE action of the State legislatosr in allowing themselves 20 cents a mile, is nofc in the way of economy or cutting •down expenses. The majority of the members, no doubt travel on passes and if compelled to pay fare, it would only «ost them six cents a mile, counting one way or less than one third of what they .allow.

THERE is considerable talk of reducing vfche number of employees about the legislature and also of reducing their pay. The number should be reduced by all means and $4 a day would be adequate pay for a majority of the clerks and doorkeepers. Tlie Republicans promised to reduce expenses all along the line, let them do so.

THE teachers legislative committee of •which Quitman Jackson, our County Superintendent of schools is a member was in session Thursday. It recommends that the election of County Superutendents be postponed until June 1st, 1896 and then the trustees elect for a four year's term. Tbat would give present incumbents an extension of one year.

THE Democrats want harmony in the party. If Cleveland will read up on Col. "Watterson's formula he can see how it can. be secured. Tt is even easy—that is Cleveland and all the Washington bosses should leave the party and allow it to recover. The difficulty in the case is that they have no other place to go. No party would make a bid for such a job lot of wreckers.

IT is said the county officers association has raised $8,000 to be used in looking after their interests before the Legis.ature this winter. Are legislators to be corrupted? It will be well to look with suspicion on all men who are ardent suppoicers of big fees and salaries. Let men Tbe paid for public business as well as they would be paid for tbe same talents aud services in the private affairs of life, Ibut 110 more.

IT is not always the articles that costs the most that is tbe dearest. It is not always the administration that spends the least money that is the cheapest to tlie people. That management of public alTairs which shows the nearest equivalent for every dollar expended is the best for the people. In public expenditure it should not be a question of how little or Stow much, but a question of how well it is expended. This applies to National, State, county and municipal affairs.

THURSDAY $1,450,000 of gold was drawn from the U. S. Sub Treasury to be sent to Europe. This reduces the gold, x-eset veto $71,312,126 and makes certain tlaafc another issue of bonds will have to he sold. Just think of it the government Iiaving to sell $150,000,000 worth of bonds fn a year to pay current expenses. It shows the utter incapacity of Cleveland, Carlisle and the Democrat majority in Congress to mauage the affairs of this [Nation. The people so decided last fall and they will stick to it for years to come.

Now COMES the information that the Eastern insurance companies are becoming alarmed at some threatened legislation. by some of the Western States. The companies have notified their agents in some of the States to use all their endeavors to prevent the passage ef the legislation not desired by the company. We «re of the opinion that it would be a perfectly proper thing to pass a law prohibiting insurance companies from combining and rating tbe property of a city or town at an exhorbitantly high rate and tbesi grubbing the people or compelling them to go without insurance. Another good law would be to make companies, w'.ieii they take premium money and insure property for a certain amount, pay tbe full amount of the policy. If they saspect fraud let them investigate before tiiey write the risk. They escape too frequently on technicalities and some smooth agents are able to over reach awme simple minded insurers who are unused t* business. When some insurance companies can show, as several do, a surptus and capital greater than the com$»§n«d capital of all of the National banks fn Indiana it looks like some, at teast, of tb© insurance companies have been faring fafctfv well. The legislators, when they •attempt to pass some laws which will ptrPfe6ct the people may expect some of these big corporations to howl, that is €h«ir 'business. The people, however, Iwwse'fioafie up their minds t® protect l»e($n6$wes as best they can from grasping «i©«K»polies, corporations and fee gjr&foifeifv, and v\oe be unto the legislator seMe himself and his constituents

He will be branded.

THE pension question continues to get up considerable feeling occasionally in Congress. Friday Geo. W. Cooper, of this State, Democrat and Jerry 8impson, Populist, of Kansas had some hot words with some Southerners when the bill to pension the widow of Genl, Abner Doubleday was being considered. Mr. Jones of Virginia, obstructed its passage and Mr. Cooper accused him of being without chivalry in attacking a woman, and the fight opened up. Cooper accused him of fighting against the same principles he did thirty years ago when he struck at the flag. Mr. Simpson said that he was both surprised and ashamed that a man should now come from the South and say that he still believed in the lost cause.

Mr. Talbert, of South Carolina, at last came to Mr. Jones's rescue. He was white with rage, and while deprecating the continual appeal to sectional passions asserted that such appeals usually came from men who were invisible in time of war and invincible in time of peace. "As to the 'lose cause,'" he shouted, "it is the everlasting cause and never can be lost, because it is the cause of liberty." Mr Jones got the floor just before the time for adjournment was reached. He branded Mr. Cooper's language toward him as language unworthy of a gentleman. "I want to say," he added, "that when the question was asked me last week, I answered that I was proud of the lost cause. To say I believed my cause was not right was a slander, I always siid and maintained everywhere, as I do now, that I know that is the cause of liberty." It looks like Jones and Talbert need reconstructing. We can not understand why men are allowed to stand in the Halls of the American Congress and use such language. They should be expelled.

Mary Vawter ts Uead.

Mary Vawter was born in Virginia Nov. 14, 1868 and died from consumption in this city, Jan. 20 1895.

Mary Vawter was the eldest child of Dr. L. A. and Emily Vawter, and came to this city with her parents-from irginia when a small child and passed the remainder of her life here. She was baptized by the Rev. C. T. White, pastor of the Presbyterian church, when a small girl, and a few years later united with that church. Rev. White is now stationed near Cincinnati, and only last week came here to see Miss Vawter, as he knew her to be in her last. sickness. She went through our public schools, graduating with the honors in the class of 'S3. Since which time she studied and became quite proficient in music and stenography and was well prepared for a long, happy and useful life but her health failed and thus early in life she was called to a better world. She has been struggling with disease for the past three years, but always kindly, patiently and graciously until the end when she peacefully' passed away. Mary Vawter was a good, kind, sweet, Christian girl, who leaves a father, mother, sister, two brothers and numerous friends to mourn her loss. Her funeral occured at the residence on South street Wednesday afternoon at 2 p. m. conducted by Rev. E. W. Souders the Presbyterian church.

BELIEVE IN HANGING.

Indiana Will Not Abolish Capital Punishment.

BILL KILLED IN THE SENATE.

The House Discusses the Bill Regulating tlie Number and Pay of the Legislative

Employes—Fort Wayne Millionaire May Be Jailed For Discharging Union Men. Other Indiana News. INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 18.—The feature of the legislature's work yesterday was the introduction of the legislative apportionment bill in both houses, Senator Wishard introducing it in the senate and Mr. Newhouse in the house. The bill is very equitable. On the vote of 1S92, wheu the Democrats carried the state by 7,000, the house would contain 52 Democrats and 48 Republicans, while the senate would have 20 Democrats and 24 Republicans. But should the state go 7,000 Republican, the conditions would be precisely reversed, the Republicans having a :»ajority of four in each branch.

Legislative Employes.

The session of the house openod with a report from the judiciary committee upon a bill regulating the number and pay of the legislative employes, which proved to be something of a bombshell, This bill had been introduced by a special committee appointed for the purpose, and was referred to the judiciary committee. The latter committee brought in amendments cutting down the force of the house employes to eight

doorkeepers at $4 per day, two janitors at $3 per day, four pages at $2 per day, 10 assistants to tlie ji-incipal clerk at $5 per day, eight assiaSants to the assistant clerk at $4 per day. and four committee clerks at $3 per day. The size and compensation of the senate force were proportionately reduced.

There was a sharp debate on the amendments proposed by the c»ui»iir,tee, which finally resulted in r^ri'ng the bill back to the special committee that framed it.

To lteimburse the Governor. The bill to reimburse the governor for the pay of the militia daring the strikes last summer was taken up by the house and passed under a suspension of rule upon a favorable reporc from the comline tee on military affairs. The bill appropriates $48,513.09.

latter requires the sinking fund commissioners of the city, and county corporations to give bond simply for twice the amount of the fund under their control instead of the amount of debt.

A number of bills were introduced. Senator McCutcheon introduced a bill to reorganize the state militia on a larger scale and make an annual appropriation of ^7^,000 lor it.

Senator JNicCiain introduced a bill appropriating $35,000 to the state normal school to complete a building.

Capital Punishment.

At afternoon session of the senate a couple of unimportant bills were introduced and cho body took up the question of capital punishment arising upon the two committee reports ou Mr. Clifford's bill to abolish the death penalty. The question before the Eenate was the adoption of the minority report favoring the bill, and nearly every senator in the chamber took a hand in the discussion.

The most remarkable speech of the discussion was made by Senator Gifford, author of the bill, in which he attacked the Bible in vigorous terms, declaring that witchcraft, polygamy and various other forms of cruelty and barbarism had been justified by quotations from the same sacred book, which declares •'An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.''

The senate finally reached a vote and killed the bill by defeating the minority report by a vote of 22 to 14.

OPERA HOUSE BURNED

At MaWou, Ind.—Palling Curtaiu ltreaks a Gaepipe. MAHION, Jau. 18. Wednesday, just after the Wilbur Entertainment company had given a matinee performance and the curtain was being lowered the ropes snapped, letting the curtain down and breaking a half-inch gaspipe. The entire audience passed unharmed to the street, while back of the stage all was bustle, putting out lights and fire. The stopcock to turn off the gas in the building was frozen. When this was discovered a scramble was made for the street. Hardly had they reached it when with a loud report the roof rose and fell in. The rear wall bulged and fell in the alley. The fire had licked up everything in sight. No one was iuj ured. The loss is $32,500, with $7,500 insurance. The Wilbur Entertainment company lost nearly all their stage costumes. Their loss will be nearly $500.

HAWAIIAN QUESTION.

tt Occupies Most of the Time In the Senate. I Proceedings of Congress, .SHINGTON, Jan. 22.—The senate again gave its attention to the Hawaiian question yesterday, there being added interest in the subject owing to the president's course in despatching a warship to Hawaii and in making aI semi-official announcement of his views,

Mr. Lodge added one more to the large dumber of Hawaiian resolutions already piled up on the presiding officer's desk. Xt was less critical than those preceding it, and after congratulating the administration on sending a ship to Honolulu, breathed the spirit of annexation and of opposition to any British occupation of Hawaiian soil. I Mr. Frye sought to secure action on his resolution expressing profound regret at the renewed efforts to restore the queen. This brought on a sharp debate in which Mr. Gray upheld the policy of the administration. He was frequently interrupted and at times the.discussion became somewhat personal. Failing to secure a vote, Mr. Frye gave notice that he would keep the Hawaiian question to the front until it was disposed of.

The rest of the day was devoted mainly to the appropriation bills, the fortification bill carrying -fj,000,000 approximately being pass jd, and die deficiency bill, including c:io income tax appropriation, being Juully agreed to as it came from the conference of the two houses. Mr. iiill made another fruitless effort to amend tlie income tax provision, but iiis proposition was voted down, 20 tu 1!).

It was determined to close the debate and take a vote o:i the long pending Nicaragua canal bill next Friday.

Then, ou motion of Mr. Harris, the senate at 4:40 went into executive session and shortly afterward adjourned.

in ti iu House.

"WASHINGTON, J^. 22.—The house, operating under a spinal order, 'was enabled to vote o.u sev*»-«i public building bills which were considered in committee of the whole on Aug. 8, 1894, and they were passed. Tiiey authorized tlie construction of public buildings at Chicago to cost £4,000,000, Newport, Ky., $7A,000, and boutli Omaha, Neb., $200,000. The appropriation clause in each bill was stricken out, and the appropri-

bills. Tlie success of cho Chicago building bill was duo largely to the delegation headed by Postmaster Hessing, which came here in tlie bill's interests supplemented by active and intelligent efforts of the Illinois congregational delegation.

Mr. Richardson (Dem., Tonn.) was elected speaker pro rem. to act during the absence of Speaker Crisp.

Mr. Boutelle made an ineffectual effort to bring his Hawaiian resolution, and then, at 4 o'clock, the house adjournad.

WEI-HAL-WEI IN DANGER.

The Japanese Troops Successful in Evory Kucduutvr. WASHINGTON, Jan. 22. Secretary Gresham has received two cablegrams from United States Minister Denby at Pekin, confirming the reports of the landing of the Japanese troops near Che-Foo. The first states that Tong-Cliang-Fu had been bombarded by throe Japanese ships, and thac the American missionaries had left on the York town.

The second, under date of Jan. 31, states _tliat it is reported that Tong-Chaug-Fu, 50 miles north of Che-Fee, has been bombarded by the Japanese, who had subsequently effected a landing on the Shan-Tung promontory.

This places the Japanese in a position between Pekin ou the west and the great fortress of Wei-Hai-Wei on the east. It is believed that a movement will be made by land and sea upon the latter place, just as at Port Arthur.

Telegraphic Communication Cut. TIEX-TSIN, Jan. 22.—The punishment' of General Wei had a salutory effect and tiie troops are now punctually paid and well paid where it is possible to do so. Telegraphic communication to the eastward of Wei-Hai-Wei' was cut yesterday.
