INDIANA AND ILLINOISNEWS

Fish Act of the Late Legislature Smashed by a Delaware County Justice. The Statute Declared Unconstitutional and Void-A Gathering of the Old Settlers Association at Tincennes. INDIANA. A Fish Lh that Is Not Jm Good in Court of a Jastlc of the Tcace. Special to the InlIana;oll Journal. Mcncxe, June 7. A few days ago Gcor? Cecil, trho resides five miles north of this city, ivaa arrested on tfie charge of having in his possession a seine, and using the same for seining. The case was tet for trial today before 'Squire J. C. Eiler, one of the best judges of law in eastern Indiana. Cecil's attorneys, Ozro T. Cranor, a member of tho late Legislature, and J. 11. McMahan, moved to quash the complaint on account of the statute under which it was made conflicting with Section 11) of Article 4 of the Constitution ot the fctate, which says every act shall embrace but one subject. The Squire held that the subject of Section 2 of the act approved March 5, embraced more than ono subject, aud therefore was unconstitutional and void. It &eems as though tho acts of the last Legislature are not even good in the courts of mstices of the peace, and there appears to be much in the Constitution of Indiana of which Democratic legislators aro entirely ignoraut.

Until the present session of the Commissioners' Court the laco had four thriving saloons, but they ad heroine so notorious that the citizens generally combined against them, and made a vigorous light before the board. To day all the applications were rejected, two on the ground of tho proper notice not having been given, and the others as not being applied lor by persons fit to handle intoxicants. For years Fairland has enjoved the reputation of being the hardest place in Snelby county, and several murders, as well as numerous fights, have taken place, the result of cheap whisky. Around thevi!lage are some line farms, and the farmers had seen their sons going to rain through these dram-shops, until they could submit no longer.

DANGER IX A SLIM MAJORITY

Difficulties Under Which Republicans Will Labor in the Next House. The Kales Hast Be Changed or the lTands of the Tarty in Power AVill Be Tied Col. J. C. Kelton Appointed Adjutant-General. ORGANIZING THE HOUSE. Mr. Barrows Points Out Some of the Dangers That Menace the Republicans. Special to the Indianapolis Journal Washington; June 7. Among tho Republican politicians here more or less interest is being taken in tho speakership contest, eo soon to bo inaugurated, and each candidate is hard at work, but ia not saying much, and Mr. Ilurrows, of Michigan, called at the White House to-day for the purpose of paying his respects to the President before leaving on a Western tour, which may bo fraught with much important results in the campaign to be decided upon in the organization of the House. He proposes to make an extensive tour, and to put in his time in working up an active canvass. Mr. Burrows, in common with his colleagues who are in the race, tries to impress upon every member whom he meets the importance of prompt attendance when the House shall reassemble. He said to-day: "Our majority is very small, and thero is undonhtedly great danger of getting checked at the start. On the face of the returns now in the hands of the Clerk of tbe House, wo have only three more members than our opponents. This 6lim majority, of course, may bo increased to six or seven, and possibly eight, through the admission of the new States, but in order that we may be ablo to organize the Honso without a contest it is absolutely necessary that every man should bo in the city, and to attain that end it will bo absolutely necessary to hayo an understanding in advance that every one shall be there; but even with this agreement there is the matter of sickness, which may keep members away, and cannot be helped. If the Democrats aro disposed to tight over the adoption of new rules and the settlement of the contested election cases, and they determine to tilibuster, there will be a block at once. I think there is great danger in it. All parliamentary law recognizes tho right to make motions to adjourn over to a certain time, and to take a recess. By repeating these motions the House may be held powerless. Why, I could take such a man as Sam Kami all and by using these motions wo could prevent the swearing in of members, and nold the House unorganized for the full term of two years. We could dismantle the government. "How to prevent such a thing is a serious question. It is a question whether it would bo better to make a rule restricting the right to make these motions, thus running the risk of embarrassment in the future, or to run the risic of obstruction and take the responsibility. This is a question to be settled. I have my own ideas about it. But it is no easy problem. 1 assume that the present rules of the House will not be adopted as temporary rules, but that we will open under general parliamentary rules. A committee on rules will then be appointed to draw np rules. Now, if when they report there is a feature of tho new rules that the minority do not Tike, and they undertake to tilibuster to prevent its adoption, what then is to be done! If allowed to make the recognized motions to adjourn, and take a recess, without restriction, they could prevent tho organization of tho House. The question is now, would not the presiding officer, under the circumstances, the House not yet being formed, be justified in announcing after the filibuster had gone far enough to be pionounced, that he would not recognize any one to make a dilatory motion, even in the form of a motion to adiourn. Might he not hold that the House could not beheld in ahalf-orgauized state, aud that it must beeomo a body organized and capable of doing business before even an adjournment should be in order. This done tirinly and fairly, after good season, it seems to me, might be warrantable without a breach of parliamentary law; otherwise tho government might be dismantled aud brought to chaos. There must be new rules or we shall be tied, hand and foot. MLNOU MATTERS. Col. J. C. Kelton Appointed to Succeed Adjutant-General Drain, Retired. Washington, June 7. CoL J. C. Kelton was to-day appointed Adjutant-general of the army, to succeed General Drum, retired. He was born in Pennsylvania in 1838. He is a graduate of West Point, where he was afterward an instructor in tho tactics and small-arms firing. During the civil war he served as assistant adjutant-general, and served as colonel of the Ninth Missouri Kegiment, resigning his volunteer commission in 1SC2. He was in the advance upon Corinth, and while attached to General Halleck's staff was breveted lieutenant-colonel and brigadiergeneral for most valuable and arduous services in the field and at headquarters. Since tho war ho has held various staff positions, in lb85 becoming assistant adjutant-ceneral. He is an inventor of marked ability, many of his improvements in rilles, pistols and other weapons having been adopted by the department, and he is also a writer of nigh repute on subjects connected with tho military service. Tho President also appointed Charles Heudley, of Alabama, to be receiver of public moneys at Huutsville, Ala, Henry C. Kizer, of Kansas, has been appointed a disbursing agent of the GeolotricalSurvey. James M. Hutchinson, of Minnesota, has been appointed a special agent of tho General Land Office, and Henry G. Potter, of Ohio, a clerk in the General Laud Office, has been appointed chief of the mineral division in the samo office. Parley B. Dickerson, of Ohio, a clerk in tho Pension Office, has been appointed a chief of division in the same office. Mr. Ilatton Arrives Safely. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Washington, June 7. Mr. Frank Hatton, who it was feared was among the lest in the Johnstown disaster, arrived in Washington at 3 o'clock this afternoon. Mr. Hatton says that the people on tho trains which are delayed on the Pennsylvania road, seem to bo moro anxious than those who are safely at homo, because of tho non-receipt of news. He says that it is utterly impossible to get any telegraphic or other communication to or from the trains, and tho result is that tho passengers having sick friends or relatives at homo are in a state of constant anxietv and excitement becnuse of their inability to hear from them. Mr. Hatton says that at no time was there any reason for his friends to fear that ho had been drowned, as he took the precaution to send messengers with telegrams to his relatives and friends to Creson, but theso telegrams never got through. IMace-IIunters learlnj- the City. Special to the Iml!anaiolis Journal. Washington, June 7. There was a very slim attendance at the President's informal reception at tho Whito House, to-day, owing in part to the fact that this was the regular day for Cabinet meeting. The rush of office-seekers seems to subside almost as rapidly as the floods, now that the warm weather promises to 6et in. Thus far the climate of Washington has been as delightful as that of any other section of the United States, and there have been no reasons connected with the temperature why tho eager place-hunters should leave. For the past week many who desired to get away were prevented from doing so throngh breaks in the railroads, but they are now almost all reported clear and ready for business, and the outcoing trains aro more heavily loaded than those coming in. lndiaua Pensions.

The Grand Army Applauds the Demand of Free Suffrage for the Blacks. From Congressman McKlnley's Decoration Say Speech In New York City. My friends and fellow-citizens, the settlements of that war and I speak for my comrades of the Grand Army of the Republic the settlements of that war must stand as the irreversible judgment of battle and tho inflexible decree ot a Nation of freemen. (Applause.) They must not be misinterpreted, they must not bo nullified, they must not be weakened or shorn of their force under any pretext whatever, but must bo acquiesced in freely in every part of the Republic, without reservation, or voidance, or evasion. Applause. It must not be equality and justice in the written law only. It must be equality and justice in tho law's administration everywhere, and alike administered in every part of tho Republic to every citizen thereof. It must not bo the mere cold formality of constitutional enactment. It must be a living birthright, which tho poorest and the humblest may enjoy, and which the richest and most powerful daro not deny. Applause.J Our black allies must neither be deserted nor forsaken. I Applause J And every right secured them by tho Constitution must be as surely given to them as though God had put upon their face tho color of the AngloSaxon race. lApplause.J They fought for tho flag in the w ar, and that liag, with all it represents and stands for, must secure them every constitutional right in peace. Applause.J At Baton Kongo the first regiment of the Black Brigade, before starting for Port Hudson, received at the hands of its white colonel, Colonel Stafford, its regimental colors in a speech from the Colonel which ended with this injunction: "Color bearer, guard, defend, protect, die for, but do not eurrender, these colors." Applause. To which tho sergeant replied, and ho was as black as my coat: ' "Colonel, I'll return those flags to you in honor, or I'll report to God the reason why." He fell mortally wounded in one of those desperate charges in front of Port Hudson, with his face to the enemy, with those colors in his clenched tist pressed upon his breast, and the God above him knew tho reason why. Applause. Against those who fought on the other side in that great ooutiict we have no resentment. For them wo have no bitterness. We would impose upon them no punishment; we would inllict upon them no indignity. They are our brothers. We would save them even from humiliation. Applause. But I tell yon what we insist npon, and we'll insist upou it until it is secured, that the settlement made between Grant and Lee at Appomattox, and which was afterwards imbedded in the Constitution of the United States, shall be obeyed and respected in every part of this Union. Applause. "More we have never asked, less wo will not have. Applause. A voice, "That's right." Beyond that step we have uover advanced, short of it we cannot stop. Justice and righteousness plant us there. And "ri ght is mi ght and truth is God" applause ; and we might just aswell remember now that God puts no nation in supremo place that will not do supreme work applause; and God keeps no nation in supremo place which will not meet the supreme duty of the hour. Voters Must Remain Sober. New Ilaven News. Wo have discovered a new merit in tho secret ballot law. It will surely disfranchise a drunken man. A, Fact WORTH knowing Is that blood dis eases which all other remedies fall to cure, yield to Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Fresh confirmation of this statement comes V hand daily. Even such deep-seated and stubborn complaints as II lie ulnatism, Rheuma tic Gout, and tho like, are thoroughly eradicated by the use of this wonderful alterative. Mrs. R. Irvinj Dodge, 110 West 123th street, New York, certifies : " About two years ago, after suffering for nearly two years from rheumatic out, being able to walk only with great iscorafort, and having tried varioua remedies, including mineral waters, without relief, I saw by an advertise zaent in a Chicago paper that a man had been relieved of this distressing com plaint, after Ions; suffering, by talcing Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I then decided to make a trial of this medicine, and took it regularly for eight months. I am pleased to sav that it effected a complete cure, and that I have since had no return of the disease." Mrs. L. A. Stark, Nashua, X. II., writes: "One year ago I was taken ill with rheumatism, being confined to my house six months.
