There is an election registry law in III inoir, but it does not ceern to have been observed at the epectal election recently held there for a member of the Legislature. It may be that the election of a Republican in a havy Demticratic district may not contribute much to the olection cf General John A. Logan to the United Urates Senate after alJ. The astute editors cilbe opposition seem to have grown tired of bumping against that opinion of Attorney General Garland in regard to the disabilities of General Lawton. The more they bumped the worse it hurt, and they never made the slightest impression upon the opinion. The big lawyer heads think the position of the Attorney General impregnable. A few little fellows whined for a day or two. Tin management for the Indiana State Fair for 1885 September 26 to October 3, inclusivehave issued their premium list.

A New Orleans special says that there is ranch trouble in the Woman's Department of the World's Exposition. Miss Julia Ward Howe, it is said, carries matters with a very high hand, so that quite a crop of scandals and heart burnings have been garnered up to that lady's account. The most recent complaint against ber is that at the meeting about two weeks ago Mi Augustus Wilson, the lady Commissioner representing Kansas, was prevented from taking . her seat at the meeting by Mrs. Howe, she declaring that lira. Wilson was not a Commissioner, that the Governor of Kansas had written ta her that aha was not, and that Mrs. WiLson must go out. Mrs. Wilson's expulsion from the Commissioners' meeting was reported to Governor Bacon. Commissioner of Kansas, who interred a statement of the facta to the Board or Management, feeling that in the person of Urs. Wilson the women of Kansas had been grievously oflended. At ft recent meeting the Board of Management passed resolutions indorsing or recognizing Mrs. Wilton cj Commlrdoner for the Woman's Department of the State of Karma, and

transmitted the same to Mrs. Howe, was np to th:s time has vouchsafed no reply. The Kansas people her have been much excited over the affair. Mrs. Wilson is the wife of a prominent and wealthy citizen of Parsons, and a lady well known to her entire State. She was appointed Commissioner during the term of Governor Glicr, and has eerved faithfully from the beginning of the Exposition without her status over being questioned, and has a creditable exhibit of woman's work from Kansas.

A BIO SCHEME IN ILLINOIS. The Chicago Tribune sounds the alarm bell against a big stealing scheme which is about to bo launched into the Illinois State Legislature. It consists of a lot of rotton old canal claims, amounting to the frightful suni of ?2,C00,OCO. As the Republicans ara in a slight majority now, the lobbyists think, pcihape, that the times are propitious to push the scheme through the legislature. We are glsd to record that th3 Tribune op pec es this villainous raid on the Stats Treasury of a sister State. That paper explains: "Illinois, under the internal improvement excitement of nearly fifty years ago, embarked in the enterprise of constructing a canal to connect the waters of Lake Michigan, through the Illinois River, with the Misaiwippi. Congress granted a donation of land to aid in this purpose, and tho State, without other material aid, etartsd some banks, whese ppecial province was to issue currency and lend it to the State to carry on that and other grand works of internal improvement. The banks issued the money and loaned it on the credit of the State, until finally the bank paper became worthless and the State credit ceased to exist; the works were suspended, and all the improvements except the canal were abandoned. During tho last year of the existence of the 'system' the contractors and other creditors of the State endeavored to carry on some portions of tho work. The only currency in the State was script, and though this script was a legal tender for all debts, and was receivable for State and county taxes, and wis exchangeable for State lands and for State bonds, it depreciated to such an extent that the whole system collapsed." Afterwards the contractors made claimsfor indemnity for lortes sustained by the depreciation of the scrip, until finally a commission was appointed which reported that the aggregate of the claims then presented was t- i'Ss 720. Of this whole sum the commission rejected all save a portion amounting to 14!),C!)7.4G, which, under a peculiar condition of circumstances, they found to have- a alight equity. This sum they advised to be paid, and it waj r.aid, all tbe claimants accepting the award in full payment and satisfaction of all demands, and especially of all the rejected claims.' In concluding theTribune says: "The report of the commission is a final and complete answer to all pretenses cf any equitable demands against tb.9 State. The indebtedness whose depreciation is the pretext for these claims was evidently by outstanding obligations. It was accepted by the State for all 8tate and local taxea, and wa? received by the State, and was a sort of currency in general use. It was paid out by the original holders, and paid by them to their creditors and back again to the State. Much. of it was paid to the State in exchange for land through the counties along the route of the cacal and for lota and lands in Chicago. This (crip and other Sta'e indebtedness was all paid to the State at par. Finally it passed through various hands, and eventually was redeemed by the State in exchange for State bonds, which bond have long since been paid at par with interest. The 8 täte hsd done all that could be asked of iL It had as soon as possible redeemed all its outstanding paper, with interest, in State bonds, and theie bonds, making one enormaus State dtfbt, have since bean pa'd off with interest, much of it compounded.'

An estimable lady of Richmond, Indiana, corked a bottle of Madeira wine in 1850, just afer the National election, to be opened aftsr the inauguration of another Democratic Pi es i dent. A day or two ago she performed this ceremony in honor of a visit from exSenatcr Ruf us Magee. .Colonel John C. New, poet laureate of the Chicago News, was also present, and is said to have turned pale over the prospect of having to thus celebrate the defeat of his party. He promptly manifest' ed symptoms of prohibition. There have been hundreds of quarter century corks drawn since the 4th of November. An old gentleman cf a Massachusetts town sealed a gallon demijohn on Caristm&s day 1 SCO, on which day he wa3 fifty years old, not to be uncorked until the Christmas succeeding a National Democratic triumph. Five Democrats of over seventy years twisted at the breaking of the seal the last Cbrismai evening. We have not heard, however, of any Republicans corking wine, or their favorite stronger drinks, to be opened upon the election of another Republican President.. Prob

ably they need all the stock on hand to brace them ud over their late diaappointtnenr. And, besides, they entertain no hope of ever seeing another Republican in the White House.

Tite Democrats of St. Paul, Minn., achieved a brilliant victory in that city a few days sgo. The Republicans carriod Blalce through last fall by more than 1,000 majority. A correspondent of the Chicago Times tells us something of the election last week. The mult cf last fall's election In St. Paul gave the Republicans hope that perhaps they might carry it in the municipal election this et ring. They accordingly set to work early, ami at first pitched upon high licsnse as the issue upon which to go before the people. That proved so unpopular, however, that it was abandoned early, and then they raised the war cry of reform in administration. They nominated for Mayor W, R. Merriam, a young man born rich, and President of a bank, but no pubiic record to speak of. Oa the other side, the Democrats put up Hon. Edmund Rice, an er-Mayor, an old settler, the father of the railroad system of the State, and personally ons of.tha most popalar'mea in the State. The Pioneer Press, the Republican organ, grew as wild and reckless as tho organs of the scmo party d:d in Chicago when they were misrepresenting Mayor Harrison and publishing every day columns of scurrilous matter about him aud his management of -the affairs of that city. The Pioneer Press charged that the fioances of St. Paul ware conducted irregularly, and intimated that frauds ana stealings from the City Treasury were being practiced. The sarae issue of the paper contained a ucqU" for a meeting of basinf es men, to be held at the Chamber cf Commerce, to protect the polls against au army of thieves, gamblers, murderers and blacklegs c! every description, who were represented as preparing to be on hand with thousands cf extra billots wherewith to stuff the boxes. The meeting was held, and the Democratic business men of the city and local officials attended in force, and finally directed an investigation by tha Grand Jury. This taking tbe bull by the horns shut the mouth of thoorgin, and the citizens finally were satisfied that the whole batch of charges Wß3 false and simply silly campa'ga vapourlogs of a Republican organ. The result of it. all was that on elecliou day the Democratic ticket wss elected from Mayor down to Constables, with the exception of one of tbe latter officers, and by majorities of fron 3.CO0 down to G0. Republicans are dlrgusted over it, and openly charge the Waterloo to the indiscreet warfare waged by the organ upon men who have always held the respact cr the community. Secrktaky Lamak said to Goneral Weaver, very recently, in relation to Oklahoma matte) that the cattle-kicgi will have to go. It is Mm ply a matter of time. The administration has taken its position and will not recede from it. Some additional information may be necessary before final action is takeD. The commission authorize! to be appointed to negotiate with the Ind'ans relative to Oklahoma and the Cherokee stiip wilt be appointed, but the Secretary did not state when. The Interior Dapariment expects that some iini ortant information will be ga'hered by the Senate Committee on Indian A trail 3, which is to meet in St. Louis to-day to start for the Indian country. Indiana is having a hard time of it this year. Not only has the President failed to lift a llooiier to a Cabinet place, but now the Secretary of the Treasury hat ordered tho suspension of the manufacture of those nice, crisp Si bills mat have dooe so much in the past to alleviate the sorrows of indtanlans. This last move looks like disfranchisement to the average Hootier. Chicago News. One would think that a Republican paper dare hardly allude to $2 bills, so intimately connected are they with the rascalities of Indiana Republicanism. The Republican victory (?) of 1SS0 and $2 bills stand out for one and the same thing. They should be entwined into a sort of coat-of-arms and go down the ages together. SPIRIT OF THE STATE PRESS. Am, the people are fast coming to the conclusion that cur Democratic President is the genuine article, all wool and a yard wide," twenty-four hours in a day and seven days in a week. There has evidently been a "change." Seymour Democrat. A. M. Kuiin, of Indianapolis, has bsen aapointed Sarveyor of Customs for the port of Indianapolis. Surveying the customs of ome of the people there will keep him quite busy and may be prove to be demoralizing. Evans7ill9 Journal (straight Rep,) The people demand a change in every department of tbe Government and reform in all the Federal cfliccs. Civil service reform means that every office-holder occupying his oilice eolelyasa reward for party sei vice mi st go, that artisan office-holders must be reformed out of office, Princeton Democrat. Tjik opposition organs have much to say about hungry Democrats, but we notice that there are few Republicans holding offics who have the decency to resign, and whenever one of their number is asked to step down and out they howl like a whipped cur. They had all better resign or hold their tongues about thirsty Democrats. Fort Wayne Journal. Tnx speculative spirit now and then leads to the acquisition of a fortune, which is noised abroad as due to the inherent capacity of the individual, but it will be found by these who watch - the matter clceely that very few fortunes are made outside of regular legitimate business. .If a person is not qualified to prosecute au industry in which he has had years of experience and practice, it is very doubtful if he could succeed in another branch concerning which hknows nothing, Let every man be satisfied with the belief that any substantial apd legitimate business well followed will affnd a livelihoed and some surplus for future contingencies, South Bend Tribune. The Democrats la the Illinois ."district where an ejection wes held on Thursday to

I

cheese a State Senator to supply the vacancy caused by the death of a member, were caught napping and allowed their candidate to be defeated in a district that usually gives a Democratic majority. Logan's chances for elecUon to tho United 8tates Senate are thereby largely increased, audit will be no surprise to hear that he has been chosen to represent the Seeker State again in tho higher branch of the National Congress. A party that is not always on gnard deserves defeat, and we have no sympathy with the Democrats of that district, but the country must suffer by their negligence. Rochester Sentinel. PERSONALS.

Oscoaii, of Bsston, has the sympathy in his business failure of all who know his genial qualities His personal magnetism and cheery good nature have always been elements of attraction, especially to young authors. Mr. Ojgood has been one of the kindliest of Boston publishers to authors who have had dealings with him and his house, and he has brought out several writers who have since become famous. During the seasons of his greatest success, Ojgcod was Bret Hurte's publisher, and his house has of late years published all of Howells' work after his appearance in the magazines. The New York Times says: Tho President peems to have made another excellent selection in his appointment of George V. fs. Lot Drop, of Michigan, to be Minister to Russia. He showed the Fame good judgment mat has usually been display til when tne slate" made up for him has been ignored and the politicians surprised. The surprise may be mingled with some disappointment, but there fs apparently no chance for criticism, it is the advance of appointments iu which fitness alone la considered tbat nobody can complain because Ic-ss worthy applicants are pafel over. A. very reputable and capable representative of the colored race has been found for the position of Minister to llaytl inplacaof the altogether disreputable Mr. Williams, who was selected for tbe place before tbe present Administration came In.

Mr. Augusta Peabody, who was connect&d with Mr. Webster in the business of his law clSce in Boston, mtd to relate that on one occasion Mr. Webster had made all his preparations for a summer tour in his own carriage with h's wife, and had drawn the money for his traveling exatnees out of the b8nk the day before his intended departure. The rext mernirg the New York mail brought a letter to Mr. Webster, enclosing a check for$1.5C0as a retainer in a preat land cue to which Mr. Astor wjs one of tbe t arties. This letter, with its incisure, Mr. Peabcly took down to Mr. Webster's house, axd found him alrea-iy seated in his carriage, about to take the road to Saratoga. He gave him tbe letter and asked him to indorse the check. But Webster put tho check in his pocket, with the remark that be might need it before he returned, and io it turned out. Whu he came back to Boston, the whole of the 31,500 had been spent, in addition to the ntoiey he bad previously dian. On another occasion Mr. Webster had invited some friends to dinner. As he left home iu the morning he requested his wife to tend John down to the office about 10 o'clock to go to merket with him. John came down acccrdincly. Mr. Weh3ter was busy writing. He asked John if he had any money. John replied in the negative. Then," said Mr. Webster. 'go down to Mr. Burritt and ask him to lend me $."." (Burritt wss a stationer in the lower story.) John came back and atated tbat Mr. Burritt had not $5, but sent him $10, which Wbitsr took and put in his waistcoat pocket. Pretty scon a poor woman came in on an alms asking errand. Said Webster, still writing "I know all about it: you've lost your husband and haye five small children and nothing to eat. Take thia!" and he gave her the $10 rote which John bad borrowed from Mr. Bnrritt By and by he finished his work and remarked to his servant: "Now, John, we'll go Xo market.' Down they went through Court and Washington . streets and Dock Square to tha Quinoy Market, below PaneaU QaiL tfr. Webster

bought of the butchers at the south end cf the market what suited him, but made no payment, as he had accounts with therm At last they reached a vegetable dealer, of whom Webster also made a purchase, and was about to pass ou as before when the faithful John arrested him with the lemark: "Mr. Webster, this man is a stranger to us; we never had dealings wltn him. True," laid the great lawyer, 4,very true," and put his hand in his pocket for the money to pay the amount. Finding none, he said to his servant: John, t thought you gave me some money just now?'' "So I did, sir," said John, "but you gave it to tbat poor woman who came into tbe office." "Ah!" said Webster, "so I did, but I had forgotten all about it. Well, John, you must borrow seme more money and come down and pay these pa?p'e; and now we will go home."

THE RIEL REBELLION. Mnch Depecda on General ntiddleton Winnlus a Victory Over tbe Half- . Breeds. St. Paul Minn., May 11. In aa interview with an Associate 1 Press reporter lost night, John McLane, of Bisniarck, Dak., just re turned from Winnipeg, where he had been delivering horses, teams and supplies to the Canadian Government, said: The government has advices that men from Chicago, New York and Boston are with Riel, and that a master mind, not Riel's, is directing tbe movements of the half-breeds. Old timers regard General Middleton's success at Bittouefce as absolutely necessary to prevent tbe Indians from uprising en mase Supplies are short, and about all come from this side of the line. North Dakota is near being drained of horses, oats, etc. It is believed there are abnut 1,;"00 half-breeds in the field. Six thousand Indians are ready to take the war path, and but 1.000 troops to oppose them." General Crooks, one of tha heroes of Minne&ota Indian war, and Jude of the military commission that condemned Ö0D Sioux to death, thirty eight of whom were hanged at Mankata shortly after the massacre there, was interviewed by an Associated Pres3 reporter this evening as to the outlook for a jtenerol Indian uprising iu the Northwest Territories, because of his familiarity with the Indian character. He says Middleton must achieve a decisive victory, or all the Indians will have on war paint in a week. Should the half-breeds ashiee a signal victory over Middleton, the result conld be but most disastrous He said the beat plan of attack, from this distance of observation, would b to weaken the works by shot, scatter the breeds by shell from the front and a flank, have Irvine fall in upon the rear with his SCO' mounted police force, throw the enemy into disorder, ruasa them if possible, then rake them with Gatlings, ritlefc, and shot and shell until disordered, then storm their works. This would doubtless cost many good lives, as tbe enomyre nervy and line shots, being trained hunters, but the end to be attained I eo desirable and necessary that tbe troops must be sacrificed, otherwise the whole conDtry would be swept by savages, who are liable to go on the war path on the principle of throwing their lives away, in which case they would spare no women or children. He added that, whatever grievances the half breeds may have, when they incite meicilefs savages they are entitled to no sympathy from Christian civilization. DIA. MOND SPOUT. St. Louli Uostuo.

COSKLLVS EXPERIENCE Growing: Out of the Order Separating the Patrolemen. Tor eome time past the police have been running singly after night, one on each aids of the street. This plan has be&n tried before and has never been successful. About midnight Sunday night Patrolernan Conklin had a serious experience, the result of this new system. He was on Merrill street and met two suspicious characters who had for several days been under survisllance by tbe police, and tbir actions were euch as to warrant the officer in a. resting them. The moment he took hold of one of the men he was struck by the other across the neck and knocked down. His partner acrcts the street knew nothing of theafl'ay until it was all 07er, when tbe scoundrels had disappeared. The police regret exceedingly tbe failure to captore the men. while Oiiieer Conklin feelslike avoidicgaoy row hereafter where there are two men to contend with. He is able to be on duty, but it will be a week before he recovers from his injuries. Since thieves hunt in pairs and crowds aud fiht all tbe more desperately because the law is against them, the officer who ventures npoa them single handed do eo at his peril. Death of Marsn Adams, Marsh Adams, the minstiel, died yesterday moraingathis residence on Agnes street from an affection cf tbe liver.
