Off the StnRe. Mr. K. H. Sothern. Miss Mary Hampton and the rent of the company that will be sen at the Grand to-night In "An Knemy to thev King." one of the truly great successes of this season, arrived last night, and took up their abode in parlors resTved for them at tbe Denlson. Off the stage Mr. Sot hern Is Just as charming a personality as be Is cn the stage. There is a gentleness In his manner, a magnetism In his nature, a quiet dignity und grate In his bearing that are sure to attract and win admiration. Mr. Sothern is one of the most artless of men. There Is not the leapt bit of affectation about him. Ills large grayish-blue eyes are full of Intelligence and sympathy, and hi aquiline nose and mouth hetoken force of character. He is deliberate in speech, and his pronunciation Is marked with a slight English accent that adds to its charm. In a conversation last evening Mr. Sotborn said: 'The best actor and the most successful actor to-day I., the one who mst nearly approaches nature. We are all searching after thia infection. The actor who does not, Piosenese-like, hunt after It all the tin." is not worthy of his noble calling. He should study to tie natural, liut it Is a difficult thing to do. localise, aftfr all. It Is hard for an actor to 1-e riitirle. There 1m fo great a temptation on the tate to exaggerate a situation or an emotion. To be sure there must be some exaggeration In order to give the proper ierspectlve to a characterization, but. a far as jmssiMe. one should adhere rUely to simplicity, which is. after all. truth, and truth is nature. I think that t?ie tendency of the stage to-day is toward simpler methods In action ar.d exvre-sslem. Those cerrjwinies that are the most successful are those tnt conscientiously adhere to this rule. If you wi'I study lift closely you will find that the deeper the emotion the more e-uietly it Is expressed." Mr. Sothem is a handsome, sinewy Captain ItterbUir In private life; a mild version of most of his heroos. As he talks there is almost always the suspicion of a smile. Oirlously enough, when Mr. Sothern smiles the orners of Ms mouth go down. Who tbe mlle takes h furlough and something serious come- up the oval face of this yeans msn t ikescn a strangely stern cast. It is plain to he sern that his features, are fitted to give the projer expression to the face of the Huguenot fox, his character in "An Enemy to the King." The Passing of Julia Marlowe. The Mar!owe-Ta'ers are not booj-.ed to appear in Indianapolis this year. To say that this announcement Is a disappointment to Julia Marlowe's many admirers here is putting It mildly. For six years the Marlowe engagement in this city has been considered one of the most important of the season's theatrical events. Her popularity went beyond that of any other attraction. Until last season Julia Marlowe could pack th flrand for six days, something no other combination on the road was able to do. Marlowe became a rage. She was fairly glorified. Society flocked to the receptions in her honor. Those wrer the ds when, with StIn.ons clever management, she was struggling for recognition in other cities. Now that she has ripened Into her fullest power It la a matter of some surprise that she should decide to forego her annual visit to this most loyal city. People will le at a loss ti explain. In New York last ;rirg she was given a place among th first actresses in the country. It was the same torv In Chicago, where he has Jut been playing her annual engagement, and where she exhibited licr production of "Komola." One thing i noted, however. In the criticisms, and that l that the public Is not taking kindly to Hubert Taber. If Marlowe l not the great dramatic card she was a tew years ago the cause can le traced back to about the time she linked her name with Taber and attempted to make a Joint star of a most ordinary but none the less ambitious leading man. Thse who have studied Taber's eareer re now revel Ir in "I told you v.- Robert Taber has had the renter of the stage ever since he became Julia Marlowe's husband, hocsing the big scenes and givim? an exhibition that was little more impressive than a country si hmlboy's recitation of "Ye Call Me rhlef." Taber is ambitious, as said above, and the gnerous. w!f-dnyln nature of Julia Marlowe has prompted hr to make the one great sacrifice of hT life for her husband. This is Wautiful to contemplate from a domestic point of view, but It Is death to Marlowe, and it reaction Mill be her ultimate overthrow. The Taber produced "Henry Fourth" with Marlowe In the lnposihl role of Prince Hal. but Tabet had the lion's h,r as Itoijtj.ur, rnntIng and slashing with a great two-h.m.led sword until the ncle msde xcp!e clap their finjrers in their ears. The TaNr went t ?reat exjen-e to give the play a faithful hltrl. al production, and Taber won no little .raise for the anMlieus future of the production, but his unattractive personality In the center of the ntre wa not acceptable. Owen's Falstaff alone prevented the play from hein R complete failure. This year the Taber hf made another ambition rrodu-tion. going to HorPw for point on the hit ri- I m tins of "HomoU."

She was a dream, in dainty pink pink gown, pink hat. pink gloves. Only a woman could appreciate, describe and revel in it. A man could only gaze on enwrapt with indescribable e.dmiration. A well-known actress, who is tunsidered i,ne of the best die?sers on the stage, declared sue had never seen a woman on the stage more beautiful, becomingly and daintily gowned, and that only an exceptional beauty could dare to carry off that single tone of dainty color effectively. One of Pugilist Corbett's admirers writes: "It is not generally known that James J. Corbett, the actor-pugilist. Is an artist cf considerable note, and sjends much of his spare time with the brush and palette. He recently finished a large painting in oil of the valley near Norwich, Conn., which it Is understood has bten, accepted by the academy at the Carnegie Art Galleries In Pittsburg. When Corbett was a boy going to school in San Francisco, for being a good boy the teacher gave him a small box of paints and several small brushes. The young man was simply delighted, and spent much of his spare time in painting pictures, but never allowed it to Interfere with his studies. His work was admired by all. and among his most ardent admirers was the drawing teachtr. who encouraged him and and urged that he continue to paint. After school and during the time he was a bank clerk, physical instructor, pucllit and actcr. he continued this work, until to-day he is recognized as an artist of considerable skill."

STOPl'KI! Till: i:(iHAVI(i. Design of the New Ten-Dollar III 11 Meet with n Protect. Washington Post. Tho secretary of the treasury yesterday ordered the superintendent of the bureau of engraving and printing to stop work upon the plates for the new ten-dollar certificates, locausc of protests that have been received against the ue of tbe portrait of the late Cyrus II. McCormlck. of Chicago. The two-dollar note bears upon Its face a design representing the progress of science, and ujmn the reverse are portraits of Fulton and Morse, as representatives of American invention. The design for tho ten-dollar note is a scene representing tho progress of agriculture. There is a, female figure with an old-fasntoned sickle ard a modern self-binding reaper in the distance, to show the contrast between the ancient times and the new. It was the intention to place ujwm the reverse of this note pictures of two of the most promlent Inventors of agricultural machinery, and F.ll Whitney, the inventor of the cotton gin. and Mr. McCormlck, the Inventor of the rrai?r. were selected. Mr. Johnston, the suierintendent of the bureau of engraving and printing, thinks we have had enough of Presidents and sailors and statesmen upon our money, and that the new series of silver certlticates should reiresent a departure from custom In this respect. Somehow or another It lwame known that Mr. McCormiok was to be so honored, and Henry S. Rfnms. representing other manufacturers of agricultural Implements, came, here with a protest. He had no objection to the use of Mr. Whitney's portrait, but argued that the government should not advertise a live industry by placing Mr. McCormlck's face tion a note. The secretary of the treasury heard Mr. Robbins" argument, and ordered work on the new note suspended until he could take the matter into consideration. Mr. IjOuIs A. Dent, of this city, representing the McCormlck interests, will have an Interview with the secretary to-day. for the purpose of convincing him of the propriety of having Mr. McCormick's ortrait apjH-ar on the new note. l!imitnM Mistake.

THE CURE OF CRIMINALS

:. i iiickm:lis plka in hi:iiai,f OF INTKHMKDIA TH M-TKXCE. Prisoners to Remain In Confinement Till They Inn Prove They Can lie Trusted In Society. Last night Krnest P. Rickncll. secretary of the State Hoard of Charities and Correction, delivered an address at Plymouth Church on "Prison Reform and Criminal Reform." The address was a plea for action by the legislature on the question of the establishment of an Intermediate prison for men, where iersons convicted for the lirst time and young men who are believed to Ie yet subject to good influences could be sent, to 1k held for a period of time subject to their deportment and the disposition they showed to become good citizens. Tho plan is to send them to the institution for an indeterminate period similar to the conditions imposed on a prisoner at the Reform School for Roys, where all afe sent to remain until they aie twenty-one years of age, unless released sooner by the superintendent on account of their good behavior and apparent reformation. In part he said: "Practical lien of affairs, and through them the public, are wont to speak slightingly of all who would Improve prisoners or prisons. 'Sentamcntalist' is a word often used to describe those who advocate prison reform, and It is not unusual to hear such persons referred to in teims of ridicule and contempt. There are those who, through ignorance or morbid sentiment, would surround criminals with conauions tending to make prison life attractive rather than repellant, and have the effect of encouraging rather than discouraging crime. With the public opinion of these so-called reform t rs no intelligent stu lent of crime and Its treatment will quarrel, but the student of crime does emphatically protest against being classed with them. It puts him on the defensive, cripples his usefulness and compels him to waste time In explanations and denials because of the shortcomings "of those with whom he has no sympathy and to whom he Is as strongly opposed as is the practical business miti himself. One reason which led me to select for my subject this evening 'Prison and Criminal Reform' was the desire to emphasize the distinction between the class of prison reformers justly condemned by sound common sense and that other class whose motives, if rightly understood, would have universal approval. TWO KINDS OF REFORM. ""Here, then, is the distinction between prison reform and criminal reform. Prison reform primarily refers to the improvement of prison buildings, equipment, food and other things which have to do particularly with the bodily health and comfort of prisoners, their safekeeping and kindred matters. It deals with prisoners collectively and with reference to general rules and conditions. It is important in Itself, but more important as a condition precedent to criminal reform. Indiana has made such progress in this direction that comparatively little remains to be done. Prisoners in our prisons are supplied with wholesome food in sulticient quantity, are comfortably housed, are given steady employment ami receive humane treatment. Certain important steps remain to be taken in the direction of additional cell caiwicity, better ventilation, heating, lighting, etc.. but there i no opposition on the part of the public to be overcome. The adoption of such improvements as are yet needed is but a matter of time and money and requires only attention and guidance. "Those who have familiarized themselves with the progress of the age in the treatment of crime have gone on from prison reform to a much higher and more important character of w ork, which, to distinguish It, has been called 'criminal reform. The one was a stepping stone to the other and has been regarded simply as a means to an end. Criminal reform deals with each m m singly. It is an Individual matter. The line of treatment to be accorded to anv criminal must be prescribed with regard to his particular disposition and qualifications. Prison administration, to be reformatory, must te capable of adjusting itself to the varied demands of individual needs. This bears no relation to the criminal's personal likes or dislikes. The reform of a criminal does not mean that he shall be afforded a pleasant, agreeable life while in confinement. Not what a man prefers, but what is best for him and for society is the end in view. TIIK INDKTKRMINATI-: SENTENCE. "This line of reasoning brings the student of crime to the principle of the indeterminate sentence. The Indeterminate sentence if often compared to the methods of a physician In the. treatment of a patient. The physician lirst diagnoses the case and prescribes a certain course of treatment. He does not undertake to decide the exact length of time which must elapse before the patient is recovered. He does not say to tho patient that In exactly ten days or twenty days or one month, no sooner and no later, he will be well. He waits for the results of bis medicines to manifest themselves, and when the patient is cured, the treatment ceases. If the treatment cannot restore the patient's health the disease ends in death. The principle underlying the indeterminate sentence is that the criminal should be subjected to a course of treatment which should be continued until hehas been restored to law-abiding citizenship. In case he does not respond to treatment anil his restoration Is impossibe. he should be permanently cut off from contact with soc iety. Cnder the indeterminate sentence system the courts sentence criminals to imprisonment without fixing the length of fTerm. The management of the penal instipffuiion to which such criminals are sen tenced prescribes a systematic and scientific course of treatment, to be continued until it is evident that the criminal is restored to moral and mental health or is beyond reclamation. If believed to be restored, he Is released from confinement. If not restored, he is j rmancntly retained in se clusion. "The introduction of the indeterminate sentence changes tho prime purpose of imprisonment. Instead of placing a man in confinement in an attempt to give him exactly the amount of punishment which he deserves, the purpose of the indeterminate sentence is to place him in confinement until he shows by his conduct that he is no longer at war with society. The interests of society are paramount. Punishment becomes but an incident In this scheme of crime treatment, but even as an incident it is more justly measured out than Is possible by the system of Inflexible, definite sentences. Inseparably connected with the Indeterminate sentence should be a system ot conditional release or parole. Through the operation of this system it is possible to test the genuineness of a criminal's re form ltefcire. discharging him from the custody of the State. Though at large he is under the control of the institution management. If It be found that under conditions of liberty only slightly restricted, a criminal fails to conduct himself In a. proper manner, he may bo returned to the institution for further treatment, or. if found necessary, for permanent confinement. "The indeterminate sentence in the full meaning of the word has not been adopted in this country. What Is called the Indeterminate sentence in other States consists In a sentence whose minimum and maximum term is defined by law. For instance, an Indiana statute provides that upon conviction ol" grand larceny a person may be confined in State's prison for not less than ono year nor more than fourten years. The Indei' rminate sentence, as it is found in operation, would mean that a perso;i convicted of grand larceny would be simply seater.eed to prison without instructions from tho court us to the length of cor.linemi iil. The prison management would have tlie authority to release the prisoner at the end of one year, or to hold him for the full fourteen years if found advisallo. At the expiration of fourteen years the prisoner would be released regardless of what his conduct had been. This lack of completeness in the sys-tems of ind.tcrmlnate sentence in actual use is due to the reluctaiuo cf legislatures to intrust the boards of prison managers with a power which woulft naile them to ln'tict life punishment." The latter half of the address was a description of a ease that comes from the New York Reformatory for Men. at Elmira. This was a case of a young man who had been born in the slums of NewYork and never known what it was to respect law. He was sent to prison and rebelled against the discipline. In a short time ho came to realize that he must remain in prison for eUht years unless the time was shortened by his own behavicr. Then he b g.n Improving in his conduct and was soon in the first class. Six months later be was released. He bad learned to read and write, and when released was kcrured a position with a stonemason, having learned something of the work while in the reformatory. In' the end he became u

good citizen. The history of the case also included a sketch of the system in vogue in that institution.

COMIXti rilOSPKIUTV. Confidence that It Will lie Here In Due Time. New York Sun. The long continuance of the period of business and financial depression and uncertainty which began in 1M1J2 brought about losses and reductions of capital too great for the full recovery from them to bo immediate, but so soon as the election was over it was made manifest that that dismal period had been brought to a close. Business and enterprise had then a solid ground on which to build. The period of mere political and economical the-orizing and experimenting had bee?n concluded, and the people saw before them the assurance of an administration which would be governed by practical and com mon sense. The economic questions with which the McKinley administration will have to deal are very simple for men who take hold of them in the spirit which will undoubtedly distinguish it. They relate almost wholly to the mere raising of revenue sufficient for the purposes of the government, and the result of the election has Removed all uncertainty as to the method by which the revenue will be obtained. It will be raised, as it is raiseii now, by a. protective tariff and by internal revenue taxation, and the purpose of the McKinley administration will be solely to produce the requisite result without disturbance to the business and industry of the Union, but rather in a way to encourage and stimulate, them. The question is altogether practical, and Mr. McKinley is surrounded by advisers who better represent the tone of conservative and sensible mcni.o business than those who have been about a President for a long vixne past. He is himself a. man of practical sense and not a man wedded to a theory which he will follow stubbornly because of mere pride of opinion. More revenue is needed: it will be obtainefd. as it should be obtained, from the tariff chiefly. Vvnen it is secured the troubles of the country, so far as they are produced by the policy of the government, will vanish wholly. They have been lue to the unprecedented condition of a steady deficiency in the government revenue, which has necessitated a great increase in tho bonded debt, after a long period during which its .diminution had been vast and uninterrupted. Of course, the consequence was disastrous to o :r business and industrial interests. The talk about the need of reforming our currency system has no basis of fact or reason on which to rest. The currency system is sound enough as it is; and it will not be changed. The element of uncertainty which would be introduced by the prospect of experimental changes will not disturb the conditions of business. We shall have a sensible adminsitratlon at Washington. It Is evident, therefore, mat the revival of business, the signs of which appeared as soon as the election was over, will go on gathering force, with the prospect that the people of this R-epubiic will reach the end of this century in a higher condition of prosierity than they or any other people have ever experienced. A few snarling critics are trying to resist this Increasing tide of prosperity; but they are impotent in their malignity. Mr. McKinley will enter upon his administration with the good will of men of all iwrties to e, degree never enjoyed by any President in the memory of this generation. Tho nearty support which every conservative Interest gives to him. and to the Republican party as the only political organization now standing between us and political chaos, strengthens the assurance with which the people may look forward to that abounding prosperity. Tlie period of gloom is over. Hereafter we shall ree steady progress and increasing confidence and cheerfulness. What Germany Cannot Forgive. Poultney Rigelow, in North American Review. It is bad enough that we should, in German eyes, represe-nt principles of government hostile to those of an empire, but In the eyes of a Prussian landlord we commit daily sins more grievious still. We are shipping tei Germany breadstuff, and even meat, to an enormous extent, all of which compete with the wheat and meat grown by loyal Germans. It is bad enough in their eyes that Russia and Hungary, both of them monarchical countries, should compete with the monarchical pigs and cereals of the fatherland, but It is nothing less than sacrilege that the profits of Prussian landlords should be diminished by importation from such h republic as eairs. The German squire would gladly enforce a law excluding all foed produce from every country. n . order that the people might be forced to nay higher prices for bread, but. fortunately for other countries, there Is in Germany a large and industrial class, who see good reason why they should have cheap food, even if the landlord must receive smaller rents. Tivn again Germany cannot forgive our country for attracting every year a large number of young men who are tit for military service. She says, and with some shows of justice: "We have given these young men their education at the expense of the state. 'and now. when they are in position to pay back to the fatherland the debt they owe, they sail away to a new country and become Americans." The German is unwilling to believe that his fellow-countrymen emigrate to America because they prefer American institutions to those of their own country. On the contrary, he Is firmly persuaded that we. in some underhand manner, entice good (Jermans away by means of heavy bounties or fraudulent representations made by government agents. In fact, so ItKply grounded Is the German suspicion regarding things American that they are ready to believe anything about our country, so long as It Is not complimentary. For instance.

REV.MR.MOUNT'S SERMON

sox of goyi:hok-i:li:ct pruachF.S AT FIRST PRESII YTFIll AX. Lesson Drawn from ft rent Men AYho Fulled ly Reason ot Their Own Importance. Rev. Harry M. Mount, son of Governorelect Mount, preached last night at the First Presbyterian Church. Mr. Mount is now in his senior year at Princeton Theological Seminary. He has already had several good offers of charges, but will continue In school until he finishes his course, next May. He took for his text last night Psalms lxxvi. 10, "Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee," speaking in part as follows: "There is no mastery in the world so great as the mastery of circumstances. History knows many great men who have been borne to their greatness on wings of popular applause, but its true heroes are those who have climbed step by step to their positions in tho face of obstacles. It is such men as these that have moved the world and produced great epochs in history. Alexander, Napoleon and Philip are examples. But these have failed by reason of their own importance. How many men have gone successfully enough until they reached a crisis, and there they failed. Pf'ate, for aught we know, was a good enough Roman procurator, but he lacked power for the one crisis of his life, and It ruined him. Rehoboam. the son of Solomon, held in his hand the mightiest empire the wor?d had ever known; one word and it became almost the weakest. Nero might have fanned his fame into glory instead of quenching it in eternal shame had ho but said 'spare instead of 'burn.' Rut thus, alas! It is too often with the world's greatest lights. "It is the strongest possible evidence to mo of Christ's divinity that He was so thoroughly the master of circumstances. Let us subject Him to the same conditions of trial under which these, other men have so signally failed. I see Him yonder, weary and worn and tried, and how He longs for the fellowship of a single true friend, but there is none, even of His disciples one denied, another betrayed and all forsook Him and lied. Rut little confidence couid be reposeul in them. He has the weight of His eternal kingdom and the hope of all mankind upon His shoulders, and not one man to help Him bear the burden. , One mistaken word and it would have been fatal to himself, to His kingdom and to all mankind. "He is surrounded by envious Jews, who seek to condemn Him with Him. They press upon the question: Ry what authority docst thou these things?' And though but two answers seemed possible, either of which would have condemneei him. He asks one question and His enemies dare not answer, lest they condemn themselves. Again they seek to make Him condemn himself, but He perceives the guile and treaehoy of their heart, and wins for himself a disciple who follows most faithfully unto death. Every word Christ spoke on earth was an arrow forged in the courts of heaven and shot from God's own bow of justice. In proportion as the need was bitter the arrow was swift and strong. The fiercer was wrath, the louder It sang His praise. Those who most hated His name became his stanchest friends. Saul the persecutor, Peter the denier, the centurion and Thomas the doubter all became eloquent In their praise of Him. "Paul says: 'I would have you know how that the things concerning me have fallen but rather to the furtherance of the gospel.' "This is the thought I wish to presenthow that all events 'fell rather to the furtherance of the gospel.' So it was in the case of Joseph, so in the case of the Jews in all their history: so throughout the world God's hand has been manifest in the affairs of men. We can see in all events of history God's guiding hand. His overruling providence. If His providence is able to turn to His praise the wrath of man. surely He is able to open fountains independent of man's wrath, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of our God. "Thus would we express our faith in and allegiance to Him; we believe that 'through the ages one eternal purpose runs,' and that that purpose is to bring the world ultimately to that 'one far-off divine event' toward which the whole creation under God's guiding hand has been steadily moving through the ages. Tlie man who is out of line with God's forces is to be pitied, not feared. The battle cry of this church is. 'If God be for us, who can be against us?' " In conclusion Mr. Mount said: "The application is not far to seek. If throughout the pasi. God's hand has been manifested in the affairs of men. if with unerring accuracy His purposes have been wrought out among men. have we not the right nay, are we not compelled to admit, the doctrine of an overruling Providence, and can we not securely trust God in the field of great spiritual verities. Let us rest upon Him. who doeth all things well, and know that what He has promised shall surely come to pass." He Wants the Spoils. To the Editor of the Indien;ipoll Journal: That the reformed system of civil service is virtually a life-tenure system of office holding is shown in the applied rules of the service. Appointments are made under competitive examinations, and then the appointees undergo a probationary service as a practical test of the value of the certificate of their qualifications, which test, if satisfactory, puts the appointees in the places to which they have been assigned during "good behavior" or until old age sugge sts their retirement. This seems equivalent to a life tenure of ofllce. Civilservice reform, as we have it, is epsentially m igwumpian. It denies that any one political party is better or worse than another. It rests on the assumption that a good civil service cannot be had through the agency of political parties. It is pessimistic. It is, to a degree, misanthropic. In its "inner consciousness" it regards mankind as a bad lot, iuite incapable of self-govcrhmeiit. Sound a mugwump to the bottom, and you will find that deep down in his heart he believes that there are a select few, ordained of God, to govern the "turbulent masses," and he Is invariably a civil-service reformer. Party organizations and their work must be intrinsically bad, else the civil-service reformers are much mistaken in this matter. They are in agony often for fear the party workers may get possession of what they (the reformers term the "spoils." and to break up the scramble for office they offer the country their par'.yernascularing scheme called civil-service reform. A good Republican believes in tlie capacity of the people to Institute and maintain free government. He believes that political parties are the offspring of free thuoght, free speech and free press, and that through party government, alternating as it does from one party to the other, comes the sure conservation of life, liberty and prrperty and the permanency of the Republic. A good Republican believes that his party can govern the country better than any other party and that those who marshal its forces, tight and win its battles, are worthy of such reward as the party can award them when victory has perched on its banners. When the ehosing of any class or orncers is taken from the people by denying to the successful partv the right to till appointive offices bv its adherents, there Is an Infraction of the. principle' of popular government. Of course, it is quite impracticable to have all officers elective by ballot, but under the representative idea I he filling of appointive; ornees by elected orncers is a worn virtu ally elone by the people-, and hence satis factory to ail. except the civil-service- re formers. The masses, from "tradition and interest." hold that official positions, high and low. should go to the party that won them. The gosjM 1 would have few and feble expounders if there were no money to the. priests for the expounding, and po litical parties vMH have hut a teeble exist nee when thf se partisans who have "borne the heat ami burden of clay and night campaigning are denied the laurels thev have won. In a republic speech and pre ss are five, and this fre-edom gives scope to the thinking powers of the people-, and free thought, free speech and a free press are the prime factors in the creation of political parties, and the party organizations are the grand conservators of public liberty. Any government policy that tends to the suppression of party organization totals toward the suppression of agitation of the public mind on the principles and pcdhic-si of government which is necessary to the maintenance ef free- government. If certain measures are to be carried before th people, the friends of those measures must work upon the minds of the voters by speech and press and bring the majority to their way of thinking. In this work the public good Is sought to be promoted. Is

it a laudable work? Are the laborers worthy of their hire? Certainly. Then why

shall the civil-service law step in to dis credit both the work and the workers? Again, 1 ask, why not repeal the civilservice law, and go hack to the "good old way" of rewarding those who educate the public mind as to protection reciprocity and finances? It may be answered that the Republican party is pledged by repeated action of its national conventions to the support and enforcement of that law. That Is the very best" reason that can be offered against its repeal: but is that a sufficient reason? Even from a party standpoint, it is not. because It can be shown that the operations of the law affect the Republican party more dcleterlously than would an abandonment of the pledge to support it. Consistency is not the jewel that it is cracked up to be. The Republican party passed the Sherman act and then joine-d others in its repeal, and lost no party prestige thereby. Acts ef Congre-ss may be repealed, and stray planks in a party platform, if of the mugwump onler. may be forgotten with profit. That the St. Ixnils convention gave in its continued adhesion to the civil-service law Is true, but notwithstanding the fact that this action of the convention was an invitation to President Cleveland to "lick the platter clean." many thousands of true1 .and tried Republicans are indignant that the civil-service law should prove the justliicatlon of the President for his putting the toards of pension examiners under its protection to "stay where they are at" until default In work or old age suggests their retirement. That the civil-service law is capable of being put to such us Is sufficient proof of its badness. With it as a club. Grover Cleveland has hit the remnant of the loys who wore the blue the crudest blow of all administered to them by him during his terms as President. G. W. A. Nashville, lnd., Jan. ?. BRAGG'S MISTAKE. lie 3lnle One, hut ot at the Date (Hven by General Forrest. To the T-Mitor of the Indianapolis Journal: The New York letter to the Philadelphia Press, published in your columns Jan. 4. is, in many respects, an extraordinary production, as are many of the military letters of to-day. It leads the reader to believe that General Ro3-crans and General Thomas commanded separate armies, and that on Sept. 21, lvJj, they were not in supporting distance of, each other; that Rosecrans probably "pirrposed retreating with his army; to rally it when be reached a safe place, throw up breastworks and wait for Thomas to come to his relief!" The facts are: General Rosecrans commanded the army of the Cumberlard and General Thomas commanded the Fourteenth corps, one of the four corps comprising that army. The battle, of Chickamaur, was fought Sept. 19 and 20, 1S53. On the JOth, owing to shifting 1 loops from the right and from the reserve corps to the left, sometimes by division, but of'ener by brigades, troops of the four grand units of the army became so intermixed that on the afternoon of that day, when Thomas "stool 'Ike a rock on Sr.odgrass Hill." be had under his immediate command Palmer's division of Crittenden's corps. Johnson of McCook's corps, with Raird's. Rrannans's and Reynolds's of Ms own corps, making the five divisions in tcuch that formed the horseshoe-shaped front, as s-en on the maps, while Negky's division of his (Thomas's) corps ami Sheridan's and Davis's divisions of McCeok's corjs were carried by the disaster on the right along the Dry Valley road toward the no-thorn opening of McFarland's Gap. and out of the fight. Mitchell's and Whlttaker s brigades of Steedman's division of Granger's re?serve corps, with Stceelman In command, made a hurried march from Rossvihe in time to stay Longstreet's advance on our right, making It possible for Thomas to withdraw from the field at about sundown. Generals Rosecrans, McCook and Crittenden were caught in the disaster on the right and swept along the Dry Valley road to the rear, continuing their personal retreat to Chattanooga, where General Rosecrans was taken from his horse in a state of exhaustion, and where there was an "army" of one brigade on post duty, with no other troops nearer him than the reserve corps at Rossville. On the 21st, the date of General Forrest's tree-top dispatch, which Is the text of the letter referred to, the Army of the Cumberland occupied a position on Missionary Ridge and at Rossville and McFarland's gap, from w'hich it began to withdraw at y o'clock at night. Ry 7 o'clock the next morning It was hrmly entrenche-el from the river to the north to the river to the south of Chattanooga, with no thought of retreat Things sometimes look different "to a man up a tree." That General Forrest, to the eternal ruin of the Confederacy, should have "swept the great Chtckamauga battle field with his field glass from his tree-top position on Sept. 21." a day after the battle was over, seeing Rosecrans "evidently pre paring for retreat to a safe place to await for Thomas to come to his relief." is indeed history "heretofore unpublished." R is of almost universal belief that Rragg had an opportunity, such as rarely occurs in war. to have elestroyed Rosecrans's army by striking it in detail at any time from the 14th to the 17th of September, but that his opportunity was gone on the night of the 2oth. when the Army of the Cumberland. including Thomas, was safely be hind Mis sionary Ridge, and no wor.e off for the two days' battle than the Confederate army This fact, according to General Rragg him self, is the reason that, so far as fighting went, his camp, like ours, was as quiet as the sick chamber all that bright Seotemlier day. A. C. i UKU. Terre Haute. Ind., Jan. 0. r I1AXK FAILl Ri:S AMI POPI L1SM. The One is the Inevitable Result of the Other. Philadelphia Press. The Western luink failures centering nt Chicago and extending west and northwest are now nearly twenty in number, taking banks and tirms together, and they reach an aggregate of liabilities not much If any short of $22.imioO. A credit crash like this is a blow from which the central West will not recover in months. It is one of tlie many bills which the region is settling for Populism, and unless Populism is crushed by steadily mounting majorities these bills will b presented by panics at frequent in tervals. Tlie re arc some things communities can't fool with. Credit Is one of them. The big Central West is in fair way to find this out. it was the battle field of the last campaign. It was carried, but for a while it !ooke-d doubtful, and for six months a host of men were going up and lown these States pn-aching itf-cent repudiation, urging voters to tax the income "of thriftie r and more successful men and proposing that law and the courts should no longer have tlie power to protect cities from free riot or the authority to guard laboring men in the sacred right to work when they pleased, at what wages they pleased and for any man or company they pleased. One long blast of Populism was sounded over all the States, with Chicago as a center. What was the result? What would naturally be the result? Do men gather grape s f thistle s or communities Improve their credit and solvency by swarming in tens of thousands to hear men In general and one man in particular, a presidential candidate, urge the payment of Just de-bts at r.' cents on the dollar? Not much. All ove r those States every manwho had a mortgage- come due took the money and thought twice- about loaning the sum tegain in a community where a little less than half the veiters wanted to pay mortgages in 33-eent dollars. Every Investor who had the chance to choose and all Investors from time to time have this chance went out of railroads in the States where Populism Is strong and went into Eastern railroads, where Populism is weak. The steick market shows the result. All the reads have lost in busine ss, but the Western roads have lost most heavily in the price of their shares. General business took the same course. Collections were hard everywhere last year. In the West they we re almost Impossible. Where there are" Populist Le gislatures or Populist courts they have aot-d to make dlmeult collecting debts and fide-closing mortgages. No one without a direct personal experience knows how laird suing for. a Just debt has been made- in Kansas. Nebraska and som' other States. You con try this sort of thing on caial once-. You cannot twice. Capital is mobile. The man who loans stops loaning. The man with goods to ship chalks C. O. I), on his mental map over a whole are-a of Western te rritory.

A bank is a mill which taks a minute toll on the capital which It receives on deposit nt one window and loans out at another.
