Chicago Tribune. A person unfamiliar with the practice in the Indiana courts would be apt to form the-idea, from the action of the Indianapolis Sentinel in setting up-a plea of justification in the libel suit brought by Mr. Blaine,, and accompanying this with the filing of a set of interrogatories seemingly i* tended to force from the plaintiff tbet admission that the charges were true, that the paper m question felt confident that it had the evidence wherewith to prove the truth of its calumnies; Such, no doubt, is the impression which the paper seeks to convey. But while by the Illinois law in an action of hbei who fits a idea of justification most prove the truth of what he asserts—not a part of it, but the whole, and if he fails therein liis filing of such a plea is taken as proof of malice, and the chances are that he is mulcted in special damages—in Indiana the filing of a plea of justification and failure to prove the ease does not hurt the defendant. He can file it, and then put in, in mitigation, proof of the truth of any part of the alleged libelous statements. So. since the Sentinel runs no risk byreiterating its libel, it is easy to see why it should do so and seek to make the world believe i can prove what it asserts. The interrogatories which it files are part of the same game of brag and bluff. The impression, sought to be conveyed is, that the defendant wilt extort from the plaintiff under oath the testimony that it needs to prove its case. Bnt by the Indiana law the defendant is not obliged to use these answers after they have been obtained, and they are not intended to he used in Hits case. They vriD never appear in the proceedings when tire case comes to be heard. They will have answered their malignant purpose long before that time The secret of the matter is, no doubt, that the Sentinel is assured of the pecuniary backing of the Democracy, so that, feeling sure ai the future, it goes on repeating the libel, expecting to postpone the trial till the election is over and malice has done its worst, and then, if if eannot settle the suit by an abject apology, as other Democratic papers hare done before, to lot it go by default, assured thnt its Democratic confederates will foot the bills.

PAWN© FORT SLAVES. C*e. Cttssiue M. Ctey Thinks That Idea Is In Che Southern Hind. Interview in New York Sun. “I have not voted since 1880. I left the Democratic party that year because I noticed the growing strength of the sectional and slavery feeling in the South. This year I propose to work for the Republican cause. I have no particular care for either Cleveland or Blame, but I prefer to see the Republican party win. I have always been in favor of a protective tariff, and in that I differed from many of the Democrats. They have always nibbled &f free trade, while I was for unequivocal protection.”' “What is yonr prime motive in joining the Republican party again?” “It is to place before the people the importance of amending the Constitution so that the i-ight of a man to his slave is paramount to all else. 1 notice that in the South to-day the old feeling exists that caused the war in 1861, If the Democrats get into power with the solid South they may appoint judges who will reverse laws, as unconstitutional, which now protect the poor blacks of the ufoath. The slave-holders would then demand pay from the government, foe their negroes, and get iit This would, perhaps, cause a revolution in the North. Tire South, would have*the advantage. The conditions of 1861 would be reversed. The North would be in poor condition to act lam alarmed at the present peEtical feeling in Hie South. I think the safety of the couptry can. only be insured by the defeat of Cleveland. I shall do what I can. to influence the people with this doctrine during the campaign.”' General Clay further said that he looked for a general revival of the slavery views which caused the rebellion if Cleveland won. However, he thinks that no such man as Cleveland can win, and that his personal character stands in his way. THE VERMONT ELECTION.

The recent failure of the Pits John Porter hill by means of the President’s veto greatly discouraged tho friends of the cashiered warrior,

nod It was announced at the time that he would make no further effort to get back into the unity. However, a gentleman known in Wash ingtoa for the interest he took in the bill said to me to-day that if Cleveland is elected President General Porter will make another effort to have the bill passed. He would feel almost certain that with a Democratic President, if he could get the bill through the two Houses of Congress, there will be no trouble about a veto at the White House. This is the plan proposed: If a Democratic President and a Democratic Congress are both chssen, as soon as the latter meets in December, 1885, a bill will be introduced and pressed is both Houses. All Porter wants is a Democratic victory this foil to make him feel morally sure of getting back into the army upon which he attempted to bring so much disgrace, and from which he was so ignominiausly ex petted. • POLITICAL NOTES.

beaten for Congress. I waaonrprfoed to find to many Republicans there against Bfaine. The Blaine Republicans are, however, making desperate efforts for a large majority.” General Durbin Ward, of Ohio, said: “We have hopes of Ohio, We have carried it in the last two October elections, and I see no evidence of defection. We have, unfortunately, our own internal fends and strifes in the State, bnt they are rather personal, and will not affect the canvas*. Os course, we will have difficulty in carrying tho State We have not carried it in a presidential contest foe thirty years, and we have not carried it twice in succession in twenty- ! nine years until the last two years. This fact gives me hope that the gain is permanent” What Has Become of the Issues? From Senator Harrison'* Speech at Brnnswick, Me. It is a wonderful tribute to the Republican party when it is said there are no great issue* between the two parties. There have been issues, and what has become of them? If there are none to-day confronting ns it is because the Republican party has wisely settled them all, and is that any reason for leaving the party? Because the ship is no longer among the breakers shall we depose those who stood at the helm, and being up from below the hatches the men who were in mutiny in the hour of peril? It is not good to bring out those who have been unfaithful, because there may be another storm, and, again, it is not treating faithful men right. Even if there are no issues at present, would It not be well to keep- the Republican party in power for fear there may be a time when wise counsels will be necessary? Mr. Blaine at Home. New York, Sept. 5. —In reply to a letter of inquiry addressed to E M. Davis, president of the Y. M. C. A., of Augusta, as to how Mr. Blaine is regarded at home, Mr. Davis says: “After a residence of nearly fourteen years in Augusta, I think I can safely say that in no part of the country does Mr. Blaine stand better in alt respects than at home, and none respect him higher, both morally and as a citizen, than his nearest neighbors. 'He is highly respected as an upright gentleman, a regular attendant at church, and always ready and willing to assist needy persona and benevolent enterprises and the ehurches of the city, besides the one he attends.” Butler in Minnesota. Minneapolis, Sept, 5. —General Butler addressed 13,000 people at the Minneapolis fair this afternoon on the political oppression of tho masses of the two great parties.

To the Editor of tli Indlanupolia Journal: The prevalence of juvenile delinquency is an alarming evil, in view of which the State of Indiana has established and sustained a reformatory institution, founded and managed on the family system. To her wayward, vicious and criminal boys she has wisely and handsomely provided a good safe home and not a gloomy prison. This institution is established on a fine farm near Plainfield. Hendricks county, fourteen miles west of Indianapolis. The superintendent, Professor Charlton, is a graduate of West Point, a practical educator and a thorough business man; an enthusiast in the work of reforming and educating these wards of tlje Commonwealth. Ten family buildings are now occupied ami two others in process of building. From forty to fifty boys in charge of an officer styled “housefather” coastitua a family. They work half a day and go to school th* other- A garden of seventy acres, rich alluvial soil, gives employment to fifty boys, under the instruction of a competent gardener. Notwithstanding tho severe the amount and variety of vegetables is wonderful, and a great help in supplying the large family with choice and healthy food. Superintendent Charlton is eminently successful in utilizing the- brain and muscle of the boys m useful labor. This season he has made 900,000 bricks of excellent quality, only employing an experienced brick maker; all the work was performed by the hoys, and thus they acquired knowledge and skill which will help them to earn an honest living outside. Last year Superintendent Chariton built too large and weU-eon-structed family buildings with the labor of the boys, under the supervision of an experienced carpenter and bricklayer, thus teaching a large number of inmates useful trades, and savins the State a large amount of money. He expects to finish two more this antumn. Yesterday the writer saw fourteen boys laying bricks and an equal number with hods carrying brick and mortar. Another force was harvesting twenty acres of small navy beans, a very fine crop. The kitchen, store-room and dining-hall, where over four hundred healthy, robust boys are well fed, presented a lively seene at the close of the labor of the day. After supper the boys spent an hour in recreation and. amusement. In tho twilight, beneath a full orbed moon, the boys assembled on the beautiful lawn, surrounded by their dwellings, and listened with attention and interest to an address from Rev. B. W. Chidlaw, of Cincinnati, one of the trustees of the Ohio Reform School for Boys,, now the guest of Professor Charlton. At the request of Air. Ckidlaw, the boys rendered in good stylo several of our popular hymns, and the “jubilee chair” made the welkin ring with their peculiar and soul-inspiring melodies; and then, in good order, retired to their pleasant dormitories to enjoy refreshing sleep, Visitor.
