v. W vmiM like to see a red-hot artiia toaekof pur many anaianapolj j paper just giving the Germans particular fits for preferring beer to prohibition. The "News" has led off manfully ia denouncing the colored people for

what the Germau3 did, noW'won't some ,

the Germans for what the coiorea peopie aiun i do? ': Cornelius Vanderbilt who suicided last week, besides belüg the son and the brother of the richest two men the world ever saw, was himself a millionaire and a widower: and yet he was not nappy. But then soie people are bound to be somewhat "offish," howso ever well they may be situated in this world. Congrjess. is nearing the end of the session, and no law has been passed es tablishing the Postal Savings system. This is oue of the measures that would inure to the benefit of both government and people," and every consideration of good government and protection for the laboring poor, demand that it should be made a law. The News Slanders. ''Still another thine was that the colored element went democratic largely. It is asserted that they were bought up. They voted against Johnson for revenge, but as for the rest of the ticket it watt a "stand off." and the side that offered the most "inducements" got their vote. Another thing that entered r . , 1 1 mi . in was me loiiery policy Dusiness. ine colored folks are fierce to buck against that twentyfive cent tiger, and they conceived the idea that the republican party was op posed to the scheme, and that tne democrats were friendly to it, and for this cause they voted the democratic ticket. We have said before that we believed the negroes were nat ural democrats and that some dav thev would be found in that part v. We think so still". The Ar, Aprt 4M. It little becomes the "too utterly tootoo" independent New? to slash around 80 vigorously witn its insinuations about the colored vote king bought up in the recent election, or about its previously declared belief that "the Negroes were natural Democrats, and would some day be found in that party". It would doubt less be amply sufficient answer to the malicious slanders of the News to tell the editors of that paper that they have thought and declared many a thing that had no serious. foundation inthe eterna bed rock of simple and unadulterated trum, ana nence it is ot little conse quence whether, as to their beliefs and declarations, they "think so still," or.otherwise. But 'we will say more. I Tl.. 1 J T 1.1? 1 Wiureu puDiicans m recent o1ost7rkn ?nteA a nro tnof Vio T?q . y platform, and exercised their right of political independence a thing the News has howled for yehvs in and years but by voting äs they pleased. For tm3 tne virtuous editors of our , afternoon dulge in some very hide- ?!" generally-harges which they. know, that nothing short of a per manent; standing financial "inducementw could hire them to make against the German voters, who really defeated I the Republican ticket. The Germans are rich and powerful, and whatever is said of them must be couched in hon eyed, apologetic phrase; but the colored people are'poor, and ' brave, chivalric papers like the News can assault them with impunity. Now, it is in the memory of men now living that a few years ago the News, which, while 'professedly independent, desires to.be privately known as of Republican proclivities, never losiEg an opportunity in busying itself in dictating Republican nominations, supported Mitchel, Democrat, against Caveh,; Republican, for Mayor. We would like to inquire of the News what "inducements' it received: for this flop. Ol course they, were financial, because, according to its peculiar theory of reasonmg, a man cannot vote against his party candidates without being '.'bought up." Further we would like to know if it gavg QaYen an opportunity to outbid Mitchel. And if not why not? In conclusion we beg to say that we have long thought the vaunted independence of the News a pretence and a sham; we think 00 still. Vie- thought some time ago that its war on what it chose to call the! "insurance steal" Was prompted only by the fact that it was not allowed "to whack"; we think, so still. AVe have, long thought the News cowardly; in that it assails "nobody nor nothing" whereby it might suffer financially: we think so still.

Indianapolis Sentltiel.1 Admitting all that may be claimed for esthetics, th- verdict of common sense peo ple is that the pra?ti.al must not be set aside for the merely bevitiful or rather, education and training must be such as to enable us to see the beautiful in the prac tical. The time has not arrived when the sunflower is to push aside the cauliflower, or the lily to usurp the place of .the tomato. The people are to be educated to see the beautiful and the trae in tasselled corn and bearded wheat. The plowman must take his plt.ee beside the painter, the educator must divide applame and fame with the sculptor, the man who can build a loco mo tive must be regarded as weighty aa the man who can write a poem. It must be under9toxl that reapers and mowers fill the world with as divine music as Homer sung; that plows and pruning hooks are entitled to loftier praise than swords and spearc, and that skilled workmen are of more value to the world than epauletted and titled Warners. The too too craze has come to soon to remain in America. What ia wanted is robust common sense. Fortunately, we have got a large share of it in this country. It is a distinguishing characteristic of the Amer ican people, and the demand is for its utili zation. Etherealized stone-cutters, who make marble scarecrows, are sufficiently numerous. They thrive best in Europe, where despots, who live upon the sweat and toil of their subjects, talk learnedly of art and fill the corridors of their palaces with nude, nondescript statues, ousted rep resentations of mythical creations o the fancy, neither human nor divine When a country or a city has fulfilled its mission of practical usefulness in the world, and is ready to be fenced in we tee no reason why it may not revel in all the luxuries of tootooism and get ready for burial. Those who feel like it, may read in authentic history the fate of people who, having discarded the piactical, devoted their time to painting and pottery, luxury and laziness, sunflowers and lilies. ' It was aid by Byron: The ocean hath his chart the stam their map. And knowledge spreads them on her ample lap, But Rome is as the desert, where we steer Stumbling o'er recollections. But Rome is not alone in her decay. The "Eternal City" is still above ground, but everywhere bears marks of the wounds which dictatorial wealth inflicted, when from monarch to maid, the people became afflicted with the too too craze.' We do not apprehend immediate danger to American cities, but it is nevertheless unpleasant to seeyoune Americans anxious to emulate follies which are productive chiefly of men tal and physical decay.

"It isgenerally supposed that the anpointmentsof Senator Teller to the Interior ana Department tion of the will doubtless remain at the head of the War Department, and he is the only member of the Garfield Cabinet now in office. Politicians regard the appointment of Wl E.

Whether his new honors will alienate him irom nis out cniet or not remains to be seen. If, however, it simply neutralizes his active efforts, it would le a rain to the anti-Blaincites.

with joy. In fact, the President could hardly do otherwise unless he wished to i , i - .1 . ... ue piacea in ine same category wun Jones, Page and those other new departure Republicans, who thought it necessary to go out ot their wav to assault the colored people, in their effort to exclude the Chinese. These new departure Republicans are loud in their declaration that the Pacific Slope will hereafter be Democratic. While such a result may be possible and probable, I can see no need of shedding tears over it, for the Democrats cannot possibly send poorer representatives of the progressive spirit of the age than such Republicans as Jones and Page. I hoixi to see the Republican party successful everywhere, not only on the t i i ,x i Pacific apd Atlant c slopes, but also in me .Mississippi vaney; out. i aiso nope that when it is successful it will find men more worthy to wear its honors than some of its present representatives from the Slope. It is a strange thing in this day to hear men high in Republican councils publicly proclaiming their belief in the failure of the Negro as a citizen. If the retirement of these politicians to private life was the only consequence of Democratic success, such a result would not be so abhorrent to progressive ideas as it otherwise is. The result of the recent municipal elections in Indiana and Ohio together with the veto of the anti-Chinese Bill, contributed in large measure- to make last week what might be called a Democratic week at the National capital. For the first time since the Maine election of 1880 have the Democracy been jnbilant. .It has been so long, however, since they have had reason to be really eray and happy over election returns that every Republican should cheerfully join them in their present temporary jollity. It will not last long, and they should be allowed to extract all the com forts- possible from it. The real lesson that Republicans should learn from these elections is that it can hope to maintain its ascendancy only through strict adherence to its true principles. Prohibition and kindred side issues constitute no part of, Repub lican doctrine, and should be left to take care of themselves as best thev can. Prohibition at best is only an idealistic fancy like many other Utopian ideas that never were and never can be carried into successful execution. Why, then, should they be saddled on to the Republican ticket only to ride it to disastrous defeat? The wife and son of Minister Langston have returned from Port-au-Prince, Hayti, where the son had an ' attack of the smallpox. lie has, however, recovered. Reports continue to reach this country of outbreaks against Solomon's government in Hayti, and it seems only a question of time as to when he will have to flee, . as others before him have done. The people of Hayti ' are going through . that process of formative change from chaos and misrule to stability, order and irood crovernment. iust n O o r V nations have done. The transi tion is not complete, hence the frequent ly recurring disturbances and revolutions. - There is a strikincr similarity between Hay tien history since the first revolution; resulting in the expulsion of , the . French, and the history of Europe for centuries subse quent to the overthrow of the Roman empire; 'lhe latter erent marked the triumph of barbarism over civilization, and actually resulted in turning back the hands on the djal of progress and culture for the hundreds of vears known as the' Middle Ages, from which Europe has not long fairly emerged. lhe liaytien revolution resulted sim-

ilarly; for, while it was , immediately

and ultimately productive of " great good to the Ilavtiens and the world at lame, because it freed a million people. yet it destroyed and drove out, and mained triumphant masters ot the situown. . ignorant and unaccustomed to even the simplest forms of self government. Thev had to learn, and to acally of the last century, to that high plane of intellectual civilization' requisite to gelf government. They are yet in this transitional period, and hence the frequent uprisings and civil wars which they have. We must not look for tranauilitv and stable government until ity ana siaoie government unm i like the English and Americans, they 1 1 0 1 1 1 have become fitted for self government. A groundless rumor prevailed nere sassination of Jesse James.

A HUMAN BABOMETEB.

The Beal Relation Between the Human Body and the Weather Scientifically Explained. tScientlflc American. One of the most valuable developments of modern science along the line of human ne cesfiity is the National Weather Bureau at Wr-shington. Experience has shown that eighty-six per cent, of the predictions of the se pregreatest iculturist The serproven its necessity mr its useful ness, for in past times the facilities for foretelling atmospneric crutnges were meagre indeed. The only indications our fathers had of coming changes in the weather were aching limbs, twinging joints or painful corns. These "indications," though crude, were usually correct, and hence naturally ""Ktr."'' 1 T 4 7 ,niMUU suggest the inquiry as to V 1? aa ' 7- I, w we ,, ; The body is unquestionably an .excellent liarometer. It foretells chanres in the atmosphere long before they occur, and this body mav find an atmospheric condition better Kiiitpd to it DmhIk- Andvtth rnl rplatior between the human body and the weather has never been fully understood, nor has were ever Been, until now, a correct expia nation of what rheumatism (which seems in league with the atmosphere) really is. It was originally thoueht by many to be a trouble in the joints, and as such was treated in the most strange, not to say, ridiculous manner. ' This theory became dispelled when the same trouble attacked the muscles, and the feeling then prevailed that it waa purely a muscular disorder. But this idea was louna to De too narrow, ana now it is I 1.1. universally conceaea mat rheumatism ia a blod disease. And what a terrible disease t is. It often comes without warning and L:nn;n : 1 mnA 1 m its acute lorm it maniiests itseil in every I .... . .. 1 conceiv&uie 11 ape auu isv tux-ompanieu by intense pain. At one time it is inflam mator-v 1 'T! JJ n,olir:ev r iuA: J?. pleurisy or lumbago; but in whatever man ner it appears it ia terribly painful and always to he dreaded. The pain and annoyance of rheumatism are increased by its great danger for it is liable to attack the brain or heart at any moment, thereby causing instant death. Indeed, nearlv everv case of heart disease with all its dreadful suddenness which has ever occurred, can be traced more or less directly to rheumatic causes. In its chronic form it stiffens the 'oints, contracts the muscles, undermines the lealth and ruins the life. It frequently attacks men and women who are apparently in perfect health. Indeed, it is aa irreatly to be dreaded as any possible form of physical woe. But, however severe its effects mar be, the exact cause of this blood trouble has been an undecided question, and it is only within the past year that any decision upon the ..l l l J T J . f..n subject has been reached. In order to fully determine what the cause of rheumatic disorders really was, certain authorities sent letters of inquiry from . Washington to the and these inquiries were responded to quite generally, thus furnishing data of great value to science and mankind. The views held by the doctors are of a varied nature, but so overwhelming a proportion hold to one belief as to leave hut little doubt that it is the correct one. This belief, briefly stated, is that uric acid in the blood causes rheumatism, and that it is only by removing this poisonous acid that rheumatic or neuralgic troubles in all their terrible forms can be cured. This being true, the important question arises: "How does this poisonous uric acid get into the blood, and how can it best be removed?" Uric acid is a waste material of the body which the kidneys should carry out, but because they are weakened they can not throw it from the system. Restore the kidnevs and you restore the power that will force the uric acid from the system and thus banish the rheumatic agonies which it causes, This is reason; it is science. No one whose kidneys are in periect condition was ever troubled -with rheumatism, and no rheumatic sufferer, however slight the pain may be, has perfect kidneys. The conclusion of this truth is inevitable: perfect kidneys mean freedom from rheumatism. When rheumatism has manifested itself in any special part of the body, attempts have been made to treat that part of thei body. As a result, the pain has departed but the dis ease has remained, lying subtly concealed and ready to break out at some unexpected moment. Checking the pain in any single locality only scatters the disease through the system, when if the seat oi the disorder, which are the kidneys, were reached, a complete cure would be the result. The way, therefore, to expel this rank and poisonous acid before it assumes an inflammatory or chronic form is by keeping the kidneys in absolute health. This is no easy thing to do, and no means has, until within the past few years, been known which would successfully reach and affect these great organs. At last, however, scientists nave discovered that the leaves oi a tropical plant, previously but but little known to science and unknown to medicine, possessed marvelous qualities I adapted for the kidneys, these leaves have been skillfully combined oeen skiiiiuny comoinea in tne remeay now I known as Warner's Safe Kidney and Liver I t . .1 1 .

Indeed, there are thousands of persons in America to-day who owe their restoration to health and entire freedom from rheumatism to this simple yet power I lui & tiucuj nu ivit mo w nwmj manufactured in Rochester, N.
