UIBIR COMPANY, 33 IctUi Kerldiin Street. PARTISAN LEGISLATION. V Political Crimes the Democratic General Assembly Committed with No Blashof Shame. "While the recent overwhelmingly Democratic General Assembly had little time to devote to the workingman and his interests, it spent many days npon partisan legislation. If there was anything left undone in this latter line it was not for lack of time or inclination, because everything was made subservient to the political legislation with which the session fairly reeked. The most glaring instance of the determination to perpetuate Democratic control, without the slightest regard for anything even approaching fairness, honesty or justice to the people of the State, is the legislative apportionment bill, introduced by Representative Curtis, of this city. It was pushed through both branches, vetoed by the Governor and passed over the veto. This measure means that nothing short of a political cyclone, by the side of which that of last November would pale into insignificance, can loosen the Democratic grip on the Legislature. Under this outrageously unjust apportionment the Republicans, who, in lsS3, were victorious in the State by over 2.S00 plurality, and carried fortyeight of the ninety-two counties by majorities ranging from CO to 2,500, are left in a hopeless minority, their representation in the. Senate being sixteen ana in the House thirty-four, counting doubtful districts. This is considerably worse than the former effort of the Democrats in this line, which gave the Republicans a representation of forty-three in the House. The Democrats concluded that a law which gave their opponents a chance to elect forty-three Representatives was a dangerous one. and devised this latest specimeu of their ability in the art of gerrymandering." The dominant party conld not well gather in any more congressional districts than it already had ten out of thirteen but in order to keep its hand in, a congressional apportionment bill was-passed making changes in three of the districts. Tho Republicans are still allowed three Congressmen, but only because, ligure hard as they might, the Democrats could not reduce that number. The appointments of Mine and Oil Inspector were taken from the Governor and placed in thecontrol of the State Geologist, who is to also appoint the Natural-gas Supervisor, an office created to reward some activo party worker. All legislation possible was enacted to deprivo the Governor of his prerogative tomako desirable appointment.. The State Hoard of Health was practically reorganized by Testing the appointments in the control of the Governor. Auditor and Secretary of State. The State Board of Agriculture was abolished and the Stato Agricultural and Industrial Board created. tho appointments to be made br the above designated ofticials. Tho citv of Torre mute was saddled with a Metropolitan police system, in order to uive the Democ racy a chance to control what they were unable to got within their clutches bv fair means. Following the example of the Southern States, the Indiana Legislature resolved not to appropnato a dollar for an exhibit at the world's fair unless the federal elections bill was defeated. When this was accomplished the "reform Lecislature" attempted to cut down the amount originally set for tho purpose from S'JOO.OOO toe4o,000, aud it was only by the hardest sort of work and a solid Republican sup port that $70,000 was appropriated to give the State a creditable representation at the great fair. Mr. Donath Well llecetved. Mr. August Donath, of Washington, D. C, spent yesterday in tho city, on his way to Colorado. Ho goes there as a member of the board of directors of the Printers' Home, to 1 0 erected at Colorado Springs by the International Union.

TI1E CITY'S NEW OFFICIALS

A Snug Place Occupied by Stuart, a Fast Friend of the Tally-Sheet Forgers. Improvements Pending the Board of Public Works Is to Consider Officers of Health tui Charities ilinor Municipal Items, TAKEN FROM TlIC GA50. Dlt of IlUtory Concerning the Clerk of the Doord of PnbUe Safety. In order to preserve a desired reputation for conservatism, tho new city government evidently does not propose to have too much non-partisan hurrah about it. Though the clerk elected by the Board of Public Works is a very excellent young man, he is also a very excellent Democrat. Other things being equal, Democracy is still a pretty fair recommendation in seeking jobs of this sort. No invidious comment Is meant when the fact is stated that there are no more Republicans in the new gov ernment than the law requires. It seems peculiarly difficult for ! Board of Public Safety to become eminently non-partisan all at once: in fact, it has signally failed to lino np even with the more respect able elemont of tho Democracy in its first step, the election of a secretary. Romeo F. Stuart carries about him a powerful odor of Coy ism. There was boiliog blood in the veins of more than one Democrat of honored name, members of the famous com mittee of one hundred, when they read. yesterday morning, the announcement of Stuart's appointment. "I hope to heaven." said one of the activo members of that body, yesterday, "that Stuart is the last of tho gang to thus roceive his pay. I have noticed with sorrow and disgust that our party has rewarded, with some kind of office, every o'.nzle man who smirched himself in that trial. I can not, of course, impeach Stuart's testimony, though it struck everybody as being very thin, nor say that he is rewarded now for false swearing, but I do believe and say that his selection by the Police Commissioners is simply a toward for the friendly activity he displayed in behalf of Spaan, Coy, Bernbauier and the rest of the gang." Those familiar with tho great tally-sheet conspiracy of lbSGand tho subsequent trials win doubtless recall the sorry lisure Stuart cut therein. At the time the crime was committed ho was a postal inspector, under the Cleveland administration, with head quarters at Chicago. During the first trial. in July, 18b7, Stuart did not appear, aud nobody bad any idea that he knew anything about the case in fact, a great many . people hold the same belief to-day. The gang knew the politics of tho jury in this trial, and were not worrying about new evidence. In 'tho second trial, in January, 18SS, however, the gang was not so sure of its ground. Simeon Coy had a cloomv super stition, from the fact that the ordinal second77 seemed to be having a heap to do with his luck, and there were other cir cumstances leading the defendants to doubt their fate. 'Inns they and their at torneys were compelled to hustle for testimony. Accordingly, along late in the trial, Romeo F. Stuart was introduced by the defense, with a very gauzy little story, by which it was expected to impeach and materially weaken the testimony of Samuel E. Perkins, the conspirator who had weakened and "made a clean breast" of the whole business. It was Perkins's testimony that made the government's strongest point against Coy, Bernhamer az.d the rest of tho gang by exposing tho parts they played in the crime, fetu art's story was to the elleet that he had met Perkins in the hallway of the Federal Building on Dec. IS, 1886. and had spoken to him about thenewspaper charges of tally-sheet chauging: that Perkins had said to him: "I have done moro and risked more for the Democratio party in the past than I will ever do again.'1 Stiart further said in his testimony that Perkins, when asked if Coy, Bernhamer, Spaan . and Beck had had anything to do with it, replied: I don't know what others did. I know what I did." There the conversation dropped. The story was brief. simple and easily remembered, and he stuck to it on crossexamination. When Judge Claypool ques tioned him about why he had not testified at the former trial he said he was out of town. Nobody knew of this conversation and he never thought about it It had oc curred to him along in Angust, however, and he had told Spaan about it. Perkins denied the story, end. very nat urally, it made no impression npon the jury. Just as llat feu btuart's amdavlt alter the verdict was rendered, swearing that he had heard indirectly of a juror ex pressing an opinion. Ever since the trial Stuart has been on the hands of the gang. and has been provided with one soft place after another, falling directly out of the clerical force of the Senate to his present position. BOARD OF FCilLlC WORKS. Unfinished Work or Council Might as Well Have Never Been Begun. The important event of yesterday's meet ing of the Board of Publio Works was tho agreement that all unfinished matters com ing to it from the Council shall be treated as entirely new business. This takes in all improvements ordered advertised by that body for which contracts have not bon let, as well as all matters that were pending when the charter became law. By this decision all this business will have to bo presented before the board and be accepted in the formal way, by resolution, or rejected. The most important of these is, of course, the light contract, and this is a matter the board will take up early. The following improvements upon which bids have been advertised for will come under this rule: Asphalt Paving Delaware street, from Washington to Massachusetts avenue; first alley west of Pennsylvania street, from Washington to Market; Wabash street, from 1'ennsylvaniato Delaware; Broadway, from Christian avenue to Seventh, and Delaware, from New York to St. Clair. Grading and Graveling Sterling street, bowldcring the gutters, curbing and paving with brick the sidewalks, from Stoughton street to Clifford avenue; Newman street, bowldering and curbing the gutters and paving with brick the sidewalks, from Clifford avenue to Brookside avenue; Stoughton street, placing a gutter-stone in the Butters, curbing with stone and paving with brick the sidewalks, from Newman street to Larch street; Stoughton street, bowldering the gutters, placing a gutter-stone in the gutters, curbing with stone and paving with brick the sidowalks thereof, from Newman 6treet to Woodruff avenue or Lambeth street; Albemarle street and sidewalks, from Clifford avenuo to Orange avenue: Hazel street and sidewalks, from Bloyd street to Lawrence street; Brookuido avenue, from Chdord avenue to Pogue's run; Traub avenue and paving with brick tbt sidewalks from Washington street to the first alley north of Leeds street; Court street aud curbing with stone and paving with brick the sidewalks, from Missouri street to California 6treet; Wallace street, and paving with brick the sidewalks, from Washington street to its northern terminus; Ramsey avenue and sidewalks, from Clifford avenue to Michif an street; Ramsey avenue and sidewalks, rora Cliflord avenue to Brookside avenue; the first alley west of Meridian street, from Michigan street to Vermont street; Twelfth street, placing a gutter stoue in tho gutters, curbing witn stone ana paving, with brick the sidewalks from the first Alley west of the exposition grounds to the first ally west of Pennsylvania street: tho first alley north of Bates street, from Benton street to Concordia street; McKeczie street and sidewalks, from Mississippi street to the first alley west of Mississippi street: Eleventh street aud sidewalks, from Mississippi street to the first alley west of Mississippi street; tho first aUey east of Tennessee street, from McCarty street to Norwood street; the first alley north of McCarty street, from the first alley west of Illinois street to Tennessee street: Tenth street and sidewalks, from Greenwood street to Columbia avenue; the first alley north of Massachusetts avenue, from Belief outaine avenue to Cherry street;

the first alley west of Archer street, from Vermont street to the first alley south of Vermont; the first alley south of Michigan street, from Archer street to Pogue's run; the first alley west of Meridian street, from Twelth street to the first alley north of Twelfth; the first alley east of Illinois street, from the first alley notth of Twelfth street to Thirteenth; the first alley east of Williams street, from Jeilerson street to Prospect; the first alloy west of Pine street, from Washington street to Maryland street; the first alley west of Jleridian street, from North street to tho first alley south of North street: the first alley north of Elizabeth street, from Douglas stTeet to tho second alley east of Douglas street. A brick sewer, two and one-half feet internal diameter, in and along Indiana avenue, from Tennessee street to Missouri street, with the necessary number of catchbasins, manholes and house connections. Tho improvements advertised include a macadam dressing on Buchanan street from Virginia avenue to East street, and a large number of brick sidewalks. Bids for these will be opened Monday by the board, and held until the need of each improvement can be investigated by it. The board desires to announce the adoption of the following rules, which shall govern meetings of the board: The retrular meetings of the board shall be held on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays of each week, from 10 a. m. until 12 M. Other times for meeting may be set as convenient. The, order of bnstness will be 03 follows: Mondays Questions of street bnproreiuents, private sewers, complaints, miscellaneous. Wednesdays Vacation of streets and alleys, filing of plats of additions or subdivisions, condemnations, opening of streets and alleys, eity property, complaints, miscellaneous. Fridays Opening of proposals for public works, streets and suburban roads, questions concerning railways, complaints, miscellaneous. Aside from making these rules and coming to the decision abovo noted, the. board transacted no business yesterday, though it heard a largo number of small complaints and plefts. Tho most important of these was made by a delegation of people from the vicinity of the base-ball park asking that an alley be opened through the park. Tho board advised them to proceed in the regular way to have the park declared a nuisance and the fence torn down. The next meeting of tho board will be on tomorrow, the time for its regular meeting. MINOR MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS. Hoard or Health and Charities Organizes, with Dr. Morrison as Chairman. The members of the newly anpolnted Board of Public Health and Charities quali

fied yesterday and held their first meeting. Each filed with the comptroller a bond of $5,000. Dr. Morrison was eleoted chairman and Dr. Cook register of vital statistics, with W. C. Ripley as deputy register. The board agreed that for the present at least tho City Hospital and City Dispensary should be governod by the same rales as heretofore. The board adopted a resolution recommending to the Board of Publio Safety the retention of A. G. Sanborn, John F. Gnlick and Richard Forester as sanitary policemen. Though Dr. Edenharter, superintendent of the City Hospital, thinks he has a mighty hard time of it for $1,000 a year and "found," there are a lot of young physicians of Democratic proclivities scrambling for his place. They are wasting their time, however. By the terms of the charter Dr. Edenharter holds his position during the term for which .he was elected by the Council. Improvements to Be Blade, Though a vast amount of the recent work of the Council has been made worse than useless by the operation of the charter. there are a number of publio improvements ordered by that body for which contracts have been let. and which will accordingly be carried out under the supervision of the Board of Public Works. Following is a list of these: 3 Asphalt paving on Meridian street, from Seventh to Twelfth; on Illinois, from Washington to New York; on Teunessee, from Washington to Ohio; on Ohio, from Tennessee to Mississippi; on Washington, from Mississippi to Missouri; Extension of the Agnes-street sower to White river. Fire cisterns of two thousand barrels at Barth avenue and Jeck street, at Archer and Vermont streets and on West Washington, near the I., D. & S. tracks. There are minor improvements, as follows: Cnrbmgand guttering New Jersey street from Merrill to Coburn; grading, graveling, curbing and guttering Pine street from Lord to Virginia avenue; same work on Greer streot from Buchanan to McCarty; guttering and curbing Pleasant street from Dillon to Reed; graveling, curbing and guttering Michigan street from Illinois to Missouri; macadam on Harrison from Noble to Dillon; grading and graveling Mikel street from McCarty to Ray; grading and graveling Eighth street from first alley west of Mississippi to the Michigan road; grading, graveling and gutteriug Pine street from North to St. Clair; gutters and sidewalks on first alley north of North street from Illinois to Tennessee; samo on first alloy north of Twelfth street from Meridian to Illinois; grading and graveling Clyde street from Central avenue to tho L., E. & W.; same work on first alley east of Young street for half a square Eouth from Cypress; sidewalks on Home avenue from Alabama to Pennsylvania and on Davidson street from Washington to Market. f Board of Publio Safety. The Board of Publio Safety yesterday gave some attention to revising the rules of the force. Progress was made, but the rules will not be ready for publication for some days. Mr. Catterson, tho Republican member of the board, has under consideration a plan of providing for a week or two weeks' vacation to policemen on pay. He will investigate and firemen, the rules of other cities in this regard. The demands for applications were unprecedented yesterday, and came from all classes and conditions. The great majority seemed to regard the police and fire departments as the natural retreat for men who do not like work, or who count on their political significance to invest them in bluo and brass. Some rather ludicrous ideas of what it takes to make policemen or firemen have cropped out. A former Democratic postmaster of a town in this county, who has the distinction of having been asked for his resignation by the authority that appointed him, and also the notoriety of having killed a man, filed an application for appointment as engineer of a fire-engine. He would not be, he said. "no common hoseman." Some of the applicants were indifferent as to the department to which they might be appointed, and one desired appointment because he was no longer able to work. The applications reach nearly one thousand in number, and arn of the most nondescript character, owing to the system which makes the appointments professedly non-partisan instead of competitive. The metropolitan police aro nearly all filing applications for reappointment. The rush for application blanks is expected to continue to-day. Drainage Agitation. City Engineer Mansfield entertains hopes that the Board of Public Works will obtain the services of a drainage expert to deviso a sewerage system on the lines laid down in Mr. Fletcher's report to tho Commercial Club. Ho began in January to make a complete varxty of the city aud contiguous territory within a radius of four miles, and has nearly completed the northeast quarter of the work, liis force is making complete surface, topographical and underground maps as they go along, which will give all the necessary data lor such a sewerage system. Mr. Fletcher's report has caused considerable agitation among the residents along the State ditch and Pleasant Run. Property-owners along tho former stream, north of Seventh street, will meet at the Ash-street engine-house this 0 vexing to discuss the subject. ; Those Low Salaries. It Is universally recognized that the salaries under which tho new. government starts out aro inadequate. In accordance with this sentiment, Councilman Pearson will introduce, at the next meeting, an ordinance raising them as follows: Member of the Board of Publio Works, from S1.5C0 to 2.000 per year, clerk of this board, from $S00 to $1,000 and the comptroller's clerk, from $1,000 to C 1,-00. As all the boneficiaries, with one exception, aro Democrats, the oidinace will probably pass, with an amendment raising the Comptroller to 2,500 per year. Lvon then the salaries will not bo particularly attractive

f o men of large business capacity, but this is about as far as the Council has the power to go. . Council's Hmxt Meeting. The Council will not comd together until its regular meeting time next Monday night. It will have to choose a president and new vice-president, and decide upon, the cases of Ccuncilmen Pearson and Stechhan. who have removed front the

wards tbey represent As tho charter is 1 capable of being construed both ways an this point, it is entirely probable that the seats will be declared vacant by the Council, if not at once, at least before Simeon Coy presents his scheme for gerrymandering the city under tho redisricting clause. THE MARION CLCB, It Will Promote Republican Principles and Has an Active Spirit Giving It Aluch Promise. Within tho past ten days there have been several consultations and meetings looking to the organization of a Republican club upon a basis to assure permanency and effective political work. There was also kept iff view essentials that mako such organizations most attractive to young men. These pertained to social features, which necessarily inefne permanent headquarters, furnished as rlC& means will allow and providing for everything that is conducive of wholesome enjoyment. At a meeting in the federal court-room lost week there was a general interchange of views among Republicans, and these vaulted in the." appointment of a committee Jo deviso a plan of organization. Last night that committee Teportod and with it submitted articles of incorporation, which provide for two classes of membership, active and Honorary. The latter is to be composed of Republicans above twentyone years of age, whether resident or nonresident of the city, while the age of active membership has been placed between eighteen and forty-fivo years. It will require 825 for each honorary member to bo enrolled in the club, but tho admission fee of each active member has been fixed at $5, with dues at 3 a year. The cluD will be known as the Marion. Other provisions of the articles relate to the usual detail of organization, the time of annual meetings being the first Wednesday in March. After the adoption of the report of the committee and articles of incorporation, officers were elected as follows: President C. W. Fairbanks. First Vico-president Harry S. New. Becond Vice-presideut (ieorge Harvey. Third Vice-president-Ed II. Kinney. Secretary J. W. Fessler. . .Treasurer George C. Webster, jr. Directors Charles 8. Wiltsie, Thomas ehnffleton. William A Wilkins, Frank Ensworth, Robert li. Grotr. I The tenor of speeches was very encouraging, giving promiso of a wide-awake spirit in advancing the interests of the party. LIST OP ENTERTAINMENTS. The Harvard Quartet With Its Songs Pleases a Large Audience. ! Plymouth Church was crowded last night, the Harvard Quartet being tho attraction, with Miss Ida Florence, recitationist, and Miss Gertrude Luf kin, cornetlst and pianoist. The Quartet has been making a tour of the South, and a sudden coming North gave tho singers severe colds, causing the canceling of oue date and interfering somewhat with the pleasure of last night's performance. The program, invrever, was given with the artistio .quality which Indianapolis audiences have 'noted in the quartet on its previous appearances. Vigorous applause attendedthe opening number, "Away. Away," by Brackett. Miss Florence, in her recitation, '.'Echo and the Ferry," won an encore, and responded with a humorous selection, which was equally pleasing. Miss Luf kin's cornet solo. 'Three Star Polka," was awarded similar favor. The quartet then sang, in two parts, a, "Lizette." and b. "Mary's Little Wise Man," a mixture of nursery rhyme, and earned a recall. The rest of the programme was well sustained in quality, and was greeted with much applause. By request the quartet sang in closing a humorons cantata, "The Grasshopper Sat on a Sweet-potato Vine," which, while old, seemed still to have the favor of the audience. The Oratorical Contest ... At Plymouth Church, to-morrow evening, the oratorical contest of students from the colleges of the State will take place. The orators will be: Stato University, Mr. Feltef; DePauw, Mr. Bastlan; Hanover, Mr. Edson; Franklin, Miss Knobe; Butler, Mr. Carr; Wabash, Mr. Randolph. Incidental to the time there will be reuniocs of the 'secret society men, each society represented in the list of orators having arranged for such meetings to bo followed by banquets. Tho Phi Delta Theta will take promineuce, as to-morrow afternoon, at the church named, the chapters of Indiana, Ohio and Michigan colleges will hold a convention. Jndte Elliott will deliver the address, and at 5 o'clock, in the reception-room of the Indianapolis Literary Club, tho banquet will take place. Dr. Gilbert's Work. Dr. Gilbert returned yesterday from Columbus, O., where he has been for several days in the interest of his teacher-training work. Sunday he preached in the forenoon in the First Presbyterian Church, and lectured on John Wesley in the evening at Broad-street Methodist Church. Sunday afternoon he addressed a large mass-meeting of teachers, who passed resolutions inviting him to return in September and inaugurate the movement, aud appointed a 6trong committee to arrange preliminaries. ' Events to Occur. The Pressmen and Book-binders' unions will give a ball at Mxnnerckor Hall this evening. The arrangements aro in caro of capable committees selected from bo;h organizations.
