’ bailwa y QUKsnoy. B»i»u«ul<?r*tands plain ft d«lib«rataly ittiarepreatats the , *t Turn Vutn on the street raUwey queetion. We end in April that we~ thennht no new charter ihoaW be rrantrd ior more than fifteen or twenty yearn. We • My now that we hold to the same opinion, that ft growing eity ehoold not tie iteelt np for so long A period. But oar objection to the new charter ceased to bare any practical weight as soon as it was granted lor thirty years. We criticised the time feature earnestly while there was a chance that it might be changed. Bat we were oTemried on that point, and trbftft the new oh«Htr was grantbd we rejoiced with all good citizens on the favorable terms seen red. We said that it was the best bargain any American city had ever made, if it should be carried out in good faith. No one. except the organ, has ever *»’ understood or pretended to misonderstand oor position. * - We say in language Just as plnin and einpbatic at' w# ^n make it, that we ire earnestly in hopes thut the street railway tunnels # ©f this city may be conducted under the new charter. W# shall be glad to see the City company in possession of the streets. In the expressly# Southern idiom wft “haye no use" for the Citizens’ company. We do not think it deserves 'any consideration. It should bay# only strict justice. It has not conducted its business in a way to win tha regard of the people. Its preposterous plea of a perpetual franchise »hows that it has the disposition of the robber baron. After growing rich and powerful out of the excessive profits which its charter allowed it to make, it nsea its wealth and power in unworthy ways to avoid the performance of its share of the street improvements and to attempt to seize the streets of the eily in perpetuity. But the present charter, we fear, still has seyen years to run. While its charter runs, the company has a yirtual monopoly of the streets, if the decision of the Supreme Court stands. While the present company’s rights continue there is little hope that a new company can get a foothold. We should like, to see a ruling of the oourtii such that the new company might at once build a line on streets not now occupied by the old company, or only occupied for the purpore of preventing the new company from making a stark But wo imagine there is no hope for that. We can see no real prospect of any benefit to the city from the new charter until the present one expfrdS, and it is possible that it may not expire for seven years. It is possible, of course, that the Council might grant an extension of life to the old charter. But we think this is in the highest degree improbable. If any attempt were mads by any party or any set of men to grant street railway privileges to any corporation, which were less favorable to the city than those accepted by the City cornpan^ there would go up from the people such a demonstration of rage and disapproval that the city would not be large •nongh to hold the m«4 who attempted to commit the outrage. This is true, whether the new charter is pronounced valid or not. It has fixed a standard below which, in essential featnree. no other charter can

fall

Again wc say, wa are earnestly desirous to see the new charter pronounced valid and a way found for the new company to begin operations. But we do not believe that the decision of the courts will be affected in any way by the name of the man who is mayor.

DICTATOR COY. TH1! organ stands mute in the presence of the triumphant and all-conquering Coy. It did not dare to tell the truth about the fnllivan meeting in the Ninth ward on Thursday night last Coy preaided at the meeting and made a speech, which was printed in Thb News, and yet there ia no mention of bis name in the orpon’e account of the performance. Since \\ he i has it become the fashion to omit ihe name of the prosiding officer in an account of a public fathering? Yet this is what the organ docs. As well might it try to make people think there is no gambling in town by excluding from its columns the names of Bill Tron and Tobe Howe. Why does the organ object to Coy? He is in the campaign, and is doing all he can for the Sullivan ticket. Night and day he is giving his best efforts to the success of that ticket He ia actually at work for the Pemocratic city committee. Mr. Coy is not specially fond of making speeches, yet even his oratorical powers are exerted in behalf of candidate Sullivan. Mr. Sullivan appears at a Coy meeting, in Coy’s ward, over which Coy presides, and they both speak from the same platform to the same crowd. The organ may suppress the name of the little boss if it pieasewto do so, but it can not suppress him. The people can suppress him if they will, but they can not do it completely without suppressing the entire ticket, beginning with HU Honor the Mayor. We think thqy understand the situation. They know that Mr. Sullivan has formed a political partnership with ex-convict Coy, ex-highwayman Bolster, and gamblers Tron, Tobe, Howe and the rest of them. They have seen the local Democratic organization degenerate so rapidly that it has now submitted to the dictatioa of the man who, two yenrt ego, wm# not good ennngh to be allowed to vote the ticket, Less than t'wee months ago they rod ia the organ the nsoftt fiery denunciations of Coy ; and now they Me that same organ sulletily V>w its neck to tha Coy yoke. Knowing aU tills will they be deceived into voting the gamblers’ ticket by the organ’s disgraceful falsehoods about the stnet-ear question? Will self-respecting. allow themselves

Sullivan cause triumphs, there will he no happier men in Indianapolis than Coy, Politer and Tron. On the other hand Denny’s election will mean their overthrow. Once more we aak, what art the people going to do about it? ;

Beer parties are no doubt strenge revelations to Mr. Sullivan. He is not that kind o.‘ mac. The more shame to him that he should counteiaiice “able ami intelligent" discussions of this k ud where beer ia the great persuader. No wonder he thicks that the ! material tame is the important one, while | the moral issue Is only the ct cation of hypo- | crites who believe that the laws should be | cniorced. No wonder that his ears are stunned by the '‘hypocritical how!" that iiA pouring in upon him from every side. He would be very glad to get rid of the “moral issue" if be could. But he made it himteif,

HOW TO VOTE.

These seeni# still to be confusion in the ' minds of men as to the way to cast a vote under the Indiana law. There ougnt not 10 he confusion, or at least, there ought not to be fear. There are election officers at every voting place, whose business it is to show people how to vote. The trouble, perhaps, is that the j people who need to be shown have a false shame about there ignorance, and refute to ask for information. We take it that such people are difficult to reach, for we do not believe they road newspapers. For such as do read, however, end are in need of knowledge on this j subject, be it said, that the tickets of the different parties are all printed on one ballot or siugle sheet of paper. This is furnished to a person on his entering the mting-roon. With it is given to him a rubber stamp with a Wooden, handle. He takes both into the voting-booth. On the ! •hglf is an inked pad. He presses the rub- : her stamp on this pad, and, if he wishes to vote a ticket, bo it Democrat, Republican or Prohibitionist, as it is printed on the \ ballot, he stamps with the rubber in the square at the head of the ticket which contains the emblem. Then he blots the space with the bloiting pad^ folds the ticket o#er, folds it nraln, as be will easily see by the form of the sheet, comes out of the booth with it% bringing with him the rubber stamp (a majority of people forget this). He hands his ticket to the clerk, lays the

stamp on the table and departs.

He wonbl stamp in the square at the side of the names of each of these candidates. There would remain the candidates for eonncilmen-at-largc and for councilman from the voter’s own ward. These, the voter must also stamp. Having one* begun to stamp the square at the side ot a candidate’s name he must go on until he stomps a square at the side of a candidate for every office on the ballot, or else his vote, except for those whom he stamps, will be lost It is only when some ticket as it is printed on the ballot is voted for that the stamp at the head of that ticket is required, and is all that is required. When a voter constructs his own ticket, making it up out of the candidates on the three tickets, he must put a stamp in the square at the side of each name he so selects, one for each office, and wherever he fails to stamp a candidate for a certain office be lores his vote for that office. One thing more and one only: In every case care must be taken to get no mark of any kind on the ballot sheet, such as a blot or an extra stamp mark, pencil or knife, mark, for such things will be held as distinguishing the ballot, and will compel its rejection. The law is rigid on this point. The ballot sheet roust carry only the stamp as the voter wishes it and

A HEW ORATOR. That was a beautiful speech that Mr. John Rochford made at the Coy-Sullivan meeting on Thursday night. Judge Buskirk spoke of Mr. Rochford as “my eloquent young friend.” As to the gentleman’s age we are not informed. But no one can read his wonder/ul-speeoh without being convinced of his eloquence. Mr. John Kern will have to look to ins laurels, and as for our old friend, Attor-ney-General Froith, be is simply not “in it” with Mr. Rochford. What shall we say of this, for example: “I propose to disembowel some of this Republican treachery to your entire satisfaction, so that you can act honestly and conscientiously upon some of the questions that are submitted to the people of this municipality”? That is surely, up to date, the oratorical gem of the campaign. We would call especial attention to the entirely novel punishment he proposes to inflict upon treachery. In the old days it was a common practice to disembowel traitors and to do other unpleasant things to them. Hut never until Mr. Rochford’s star rose above the horizon did any one think of disembowling the traitor’s treachery. Fine as this is, however, we think Judge Buskirk’s “eloquent young friend” excelled himself (no one else could excel him) in this impassioned outburst: t Tub News b*s attacked Judge Buskirk, and I #ay to you that be has discharged his duties with the conscientiousness of a god and the purity of a virgin. Hie character is as free from unfairness a? the mariner’s compass in crossing the Atlantis. He is honored by the slander of Tun News, for the slander of The N Ewe is an honor to Christ. Is It a wonder that very shortly after this eulogy Judge Buskirk got np and said: “My eloquent young friend has so covered the ground that there is little left for me to talk about”? We do not need to dwell much upon these words of Mr. Rochford. They speak for themselves. ^ We hope people will read them. It may be that some will think that they are extravagant, but that wi’l only go to show that they do not know Judge Buskirk. Judge Bnskirk, we must presume, knows himself, and he assures us that the orator has “covered the ground.” So wc are to have the rare privilege of voting for a man who has the “conscientiousness of a god and the parity of a virgin”—and his name is Baskirk. , If he it really all that, something more than a unanimous election is his due. Such is the sublime being whom we have slandered i Our sin is great But when we are aikured, as we are by Mr. Roehford, that our slander is an honor to Buskirk and Christ we can not but .feel the crushing weight of the

rebuke.

He has picked out Generals Sickles and Butterfield as responsible ior the outrage and retaliates with a damage suit lor $1C,CM. This amount will, he thinks, compensate him ior the injury to his apparatus and the less ot possible profits on photographs.

The Sullivan organ was telling the truth about Coy a little over two months ago in this vigorous and refreshing manner; Attorney-General Smith is reported by the Journal to believe that the Republicans would be glad_to have Sim Coy in their ranks. He is mistaken. Sim does them more good where he is than he could in any other way. Mr. Smith is evidently cne ot those persons who imagine that Sim is a valuable political worker, but none of that class has ever been able to point to anything wise, or even “smart.” that he ever did. His particular field is political scoundrcltam, and he always gets caught at‘that. Witness the tallysheet incident. Witness his opposition to the city charter. Witness his attempt to help Herod. As soon as he was sent to the penitentiary the Democratic maiority ih this ..... t{n

"feel, huo utilities, and the majority fell about one thousand. Heaven only knows how much he will hurt us this year. No wonder the organ did not think it worth while to mention the fast that Sim presided at the meeting in the Ninth ward Thursday night at which Mr. Sullivan spoke.

Can any one tell why Messrs. L'ttler, Cave Howe, Tron and all the other proprietors of gambling-houses are for Sullivan? Is it because they share his contempt for the “ miserable hypocrites" who do not like gambling, bribery and blackmail?

Harper's Weekly attempts a defense o' theiVan-Alen appointment on the ground it is “no Worse and no better than honoi others that excited no gomment," which is not the loriiest point of view. “Whatever odium attaches to the selection rests on the system, not on the President.” Wc do not think the President would care to have the case rest where the Weekly leaves it. And yet Mr. Van Alca’s name has not been withdrawn by the President, nor has Mr. Van Alcn offered to quit the field.

And so the Archduke Franz Ferdinand von Verterrekh d’Kste waa not in Chicago on the day that he wav fondiy believed to be there, and his supposed highness, incog., was altogether another person. This may now be stated as the truth, because an enterprising reporter who traveled from the Iftr West with the Archduke says that it was physically impossible that the gentleman on whom some of Chicago’s best people called the other day should have been that prospective monarch. This reporter speaks as one having knowledge; he baa even the menus of many of the meals which were prepared for Bis Highness by bis own royal order. It is painful to note that the Archduke’* breakfast included champagne, but, of course, there is no advantage In being an archdnke unless that dignity carries with it the right of eccentric diet. But the question of the hour is. who was the gentleman on whom representatives of Chicago’s best society intruded themselves, only to meet with rebuff and repulse? One would suppose that after the manv experiences of Chicago with royalty during the summer, her people would know an archduke when they saw him, but it seems that familiarity with the royal palm has not prevented error. If the gentleman who drank Champagne with hie chop* at breakfast on the private oar bound for Chicago from Denver was the real heir apparent to the Austrian throne, who was the modest gentleman who received and rejected the reception committee several days before the real Franz Ferdinand reached the lakeside? It might have been the ofVlamentel Emin Pasha. The German doctor who turned his back on Stanley in middle Africa would not be like'y to waste much time on the ordinary reception committee of civilization. It might have been the man who struck Billy Patterson, or his brother in legend, the man who broke the bank at Monte Carlo.

The Rev. Robert Roberts was born in Caroline county. Maryland, in 1835. His parents both died while tic was young. He was united with the Methodist Episcopal church when he was fourteen years old, and four years later went to live in Connersville, lud. In 185(7 he came to Indianapolis, and soon after began his studies forthe ministry with his old friend, the Rev. Joseph Cotton. In the following year he became a member of the Southeast Indiana Conference, and was sent to the * Columbia circuit as his first appointment. Here he remained one year, as was the custom with young preachers. He was then placed on the Carthage circuit. After two years there he married Miss Emily E. Bali. At the end of bis tenth year in the ministry, feeling the need of better qualifications, he attended Moore’s Hill college for three years, after which he was sent to the’Centenary church at Greenrburg. He spent fouryejuw as presiding elder of that district. The oegree of A. M. was conferred upon him by both Moore’s Hill college and DePauw University, and that of D. D. by Moore’s Hill. He has spent the last-five years in Connersville and built there one of the finest churches of the district. Dr. Roberts preached his first sermon after entering the ministry in the old Asbury church, now Fletehe r Place.

I bought the CuTict’KA Remedies, and she used only one box of CLTicntA, one cake of Cutioura Soap, and half a bottle of Cuticcha Resolvent, and

these have cared her completely.

C. M. STONE, 141 Bute St., Chicago, Ol. CUTICURA WORKS WOHDERS There is no doubt that the CortcuBA Remedies daily perform mpre wonderful cures than all other skin and mood remedies combined. They instantly relieve and speedily cure every humor of the skin, scalp, and blood, with loss of hair, from infancy to age, from pimples to scrofula, when the best physicians fail.
