THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL. WEDNESDAY MORNING OCTOBER 8, 18791

I WEDNESDAY, OCTOeEIt 8. Jomr Skkbmar was BLOOueef al brok-r as the record shows.

It costs the country $'254,705 year to pay the men who swindled Hays into office. Thb cheers for Hayes as he swung around the Circle, if they all had been gathered into one cheer, would not hare disturbad a mouse. LiM PlrJcston or Mrs. Jenka would have caused a bigger fuss. Thb amount of money received on account of the late pedestrian match in New York was $73,923. After all dednotions for expenses, the remainder was divided as fol lows: Ttmll. Kf miles tin.'oo oo 7,41-2 JO 4,m &u 2.730 00 l.lft'J M l.SHS W 1,071 60 B77 50 Merrltt, 616 miles Hazael,6Uu mllbs - Bart, 0 mile Guyon, 471 miles.... Westou, 455 miles.. VTnnla aLVUvfmll.S Krohne, 4a0 miles Rowell'a two walks have netted him the nug sum of $13 803.30. Tub New York Herald says that Grant is not the "property of any particular party, and as evidence that the general will keep out of politics and own himself In future, quotes from his last message to Congress as follows: "With the present Congress uiy official life terminates. It is not probable that publio affairs will ever again receive attention from me farther than as a citizen of the Republic, always taking a deep interest in the honor; integrity and prosperity of the whole land." The Herald may be wise, but it is not enough of a seer to read Grant. A Washington . dispatch says that it. is understood that Mr. - G. F. Seward, oar minister to China, has nearly completed a modification of the Cashing and ISurllngauie treaties, the 1mortant features of which are intended to discourage the importation of the lower classes of Chinamen to the United State?, and affording them the guarantees of tbe .Government in any part of the United States to which they may resort, while our citizens are only permitted to frequent a few of the principal parts of China. The treaty modifications are intended to especially promote trade, and not emigration, and place the merchants of each country on a commercial equality. All of which means that Americans will ba permitted logo where they please in China, and the almond-eyed celestials the rat-eaters, will continue to come to this country and deprive American workiegtnen of the means of earning a decent livelihood. Mrs. Sabah T. Bolton, in her advanced -years, has become remarkably facetious in her rhymings. For felicitous, fun-poking -and fun-provoking verses, her "welcome" to Hayes Is probably about' tbe beat thing of the kind that has appeared in print for a -coon's age. As a joke it is simply enormous. It is colossal. It is Alpine, Chimborazian; -as, for Instance, the following to start on We hall tbee, with pleasure and pride, as our BUMt! O, head of our nation! O, son of the Went ! iect of oar people, tbe tree nud tbe brave, Wli acknowledge no matter and fetter no slave. The head of ."our nation" is superb, barring the fact that tbe big ' N" is omitted. Evidently, tome body ought to "put a head" on the nation, if it is only a "figure head." The nation needs a bead, and maybe it needs tail, too, and a slight ohange might bave xed the thing up admirably, as, for instance, hualy We hall thee, we hall thee, proudly we hall Thee, Kutherford B., the head and the tall, etc Bat we do not value bo highly that part of Mrs. Bolton's wit as we do that which refers to Hayes as the "elect of our people." That we regard as equal to anything in the language. It is superb. It u fancy the most sparkling, imagination of far-reaching wing, and certainly, for delicate reference to fancied facts, can not be excelled; an I still, though we will not believe it was intended for anything more than a pleasantry, there is lurking cruelty in it aort-'o like a ptn in a soft velvet cushion, when one would like to lay back and laugh like a peg in a Loot, when one would like to dance a Highland fling, or the twinge of toothache when ene feels like indulging in a guflaw over Joan. Billicgi' quaint fancies. The gifted poetess, strange to say, uoes not welcome Hayes as a "warrior," though it would have been a good Joke capital; but as "statesman and Christian," and the fun of it is that there is an air of seriousness about it whioh tightsns the grip .' of the expression upon one's risibilities and makes biin snicker in spile of himself. But If tbe slightest allusion had been made to Hayes as a "civil service reformer," tbe -effect would have been completely spoiled. As Lincoln said, It would have been a "bad egg." Nothing could be more adroit than the allusion to tbe "wealth of affection" which Indiana pours out a sort of a Niagara a boom. Certainly the gifted lady hit the mark wben she said, "Nq need of a temple inscribed with tby name." Not a bit of it; couldn't pile rocks high enough for such a temple.. The lame part of the oke has been arranged. "For particulars see small bills." It Is e xquUitely droll when Mrs. Bolton says, '-The heart of tby country enabrlneth thy tame." That is a most delicate quip a bjperbolean jru esprit worthy of the best masters. But tbe inspired poetess, reveling in the vagaries of an overwrought fancy, has set the world to giggling, and the rippling circles must go on until ihey reach China and Japan. After "enehrinlrg" Hayes' "fame" in the "heart" of the "country," she proceeds: Bat the snmmlt of greatness Is near to the sky, This is something more than a sally; it is ethereallzed and sublimated raillery. Hayes so near the sky would realize Dryden'a hy perbole when be said The sky shrunk upward with unusual dread, And trembling fiber dried beneath his bed. We can see that the famous poetess set out to be purely iu-alnallve, else she might bars imitated Goldsmith and said Contrasted faulu through all thy manners TbooJihic'h, penurious; though submissive, vain; Though crave, yet trifling; aealous, yet untiue; - And e'en in penanoe planning sins anew. ' But Mrs. Bolton stuck to her fun provok tag proclivities to the last, and, as a humor US u enuiied to a piece la advance of

Artemus Ward. She winds np the most arcaatio poem of the times as follows Bat being coovlooed that snch action Is bent, Does bravely bin part and to God leaves the rest. As such man we hail thee, with song and hoeanna, And welcome thee gladly to fair Indiana. It can not be said of the witty and Jocose "welcome" to Hayes that wild fancies "gamboled unbridled and unbound" through the brain of the poetess. Her fancies are superb. There may be a touch, here and there, of irony, and the only danger to be apprehended by such productions is that pointed out by Pope, who said: Vioe Is a monster of such frightful mien, That to be bated, needs bat to be seen ; But, seen too often, familiar with ber face, We first endure then pity then embrace. But no harm can come of suoh humor as Mrs. Bolton indulges in, and, fortunately as all people will at once see it in its proper light, we rejoice to know that an Indiana lady was to imbued with the divine sfllstas as to weave her brilliant fancies into such a chapter of jokes.

THB OAT WE CELEBRATE. The people of Indiana are justly proud of the prominence the State occupies In the Republic, from any and every point of view which It is possible to discuss the subjects of wealth, intelligence, and material prosperity. There are larger States, more populous States, but there are none of greater natural resources, and none where more enterprise is exhibited in their leading industries. There is no State in tbe Union that can boast of a capital city having such prospects for future greatness as an inland mart of trade a center of populative wealth, manutacturea and commerce. In 1878 there were in operation in the United States 81,055 miles of railroads. Of these Indiana had 4,112 miles, standing fifth in the list of railroad States, as will be seen by the following statement; Ball roads. Slates. Area. MUes. IUtDOta ..........5i,4l0 7,4t)i Pennsylvania-.-..... 4.iw0 0,112 New York ... .47,00 6.KHO Oh lo . 89,!4 6,W0 Indiana....... .a3,SW 4,114 And though Indiana is the smallest State of the six States named, and by far the least in population, it will be seen that she is abreast of the most favored in railroads to the square mile of territory In fact, there are but seven oounties in the State that are not penetrated by a railroad, and, therefore, it we accept tbe proposition that the building of railroads Is a measure of enterprise, Indiana may justly claim pre-eminence. In her agricultural productions, if we are to accept wheat as the produot by which to indicate tlw right place in the list of agricultural States, then Indiana goes to the front and defiantly holds the first place unchallenged. We bave shown in these columns that the crop of wheat In 1879 was 55,000,OCO bushels; but leaving it to others to make tbe estimates, Indiana is still in the lead, as will be seen by the following, which we take from the Grain and Provision Review, and which has before appeared in tbese columns: Bunnell l,:t" io,(iio 15,01 w,oco 8.6H0.0H0 25.OJ0.O0O 7,1X10,01 8,000,01 4,000 .000 1 .oon.OoO 2JXI0.OOO New England Btate.-.. new l or .....

Nor is this all. We are told, and rightly, too, that the publio school system is the product of the highest conceptions of tbe stability of Republican government, and of man's advancement in all that pertains to his well-being as a citi zen. In this regard Indiana stood third in the list of States in 1870, as will be seen by the following statement from the United States census report: New York Total luoome for publio schools - , 18 912.C2I Ohio Total Income for public schools. 8,528,145 Indian a Total Income for publio schools .,............... ..... 7,10,V8J Butdnrlng the last decade the school fnnd oi Indiana has increased to about $3,000,000, which plaoes the State, considering pop ulation, largely in advance of all others. Such statements are the glory of Indiana. The facts can not be dwarfed, and the more they are commented upon the more they will command tbe respect of statesmen and and philanthropists. The great exposition now in progress in this city evinces the publio spirit of the people of Indiana; and tbe industrial parade,, which will pass along tbe chief avenues of Indianapolis today, is proof positive that the people are wide awake and In" full accord witu the aggressive and progressive spirit of the age. It does not matter who may be in tbe front or tbe rear of the grand pageant, overall and above all as tbe procession moves along, that which will most interest tbe people will not be R. B. Hayes, but the fact that the long night of business depres slon tbe result of a withering, crashing, bankrupting and shrinking policy Is passing away, and that the country has come to the dawning of a brighter era. A bencfioent Providence has at last gained a victory over Shylocklsm and bayonet rule, vetoes and a vicious financial policy. The conflict has been long and dubious. Multl plied millions of money have bneu lost. Idleness and ruin filled the land with distress. But Omnipotence sent fruitful seasons; the land was filled with food. The Democratic party, and we say it reverently, was a co worker with Deity himself, and at last the harbinger notes ot better times are being sung. The tun ot the country's prosperity is above tbe horlson, and is rising grandly to the senith. , Let the exposition and the parade go forward, and aee to it that hero worship does not mar the stately symmetry of toe industrial sxhlblUou.

SOMETHING WORTH READING. Hayes has come and gone, and so has Mrs. Hayes, and so has Burchard and Webb Hayer, heirs of the die nasty. There was considerable pomp and circumstance. There was, however, one conspicuous omission, as seen on the occasion no mob, no Violence, no insult. This was In beautiful contrast with tbe conduct of tbe leaders ot the party of great moral Ideas, when Andy Johnson, about whose election there uat no doubt, swung around tbo circle to psy his respects to the people. There was still another omission. How it could have escaped the attention of the managers is what no person ever found out. The Hsyea party was not complete. It waatstrangely deficient In distinguished characters, of men who made history in 1870, and who are still living to enjoy the rewards of their prodigious performances. Tbe reader will at once perceive to whom we refer. Thousands referred to tbe remarkable oversight of the managers. J. Madison Weils, Kenner, Casaanave and Anderson, the Louisiana returning board patriots, were nowhere to be seen. It wonld have been highly appropriate to bave introduced into the procession a returning board hearse in tbe shape of a big coffin drawn by black horses, decorated with a wealth of crape, followed by a dozen mu filed drums beating funeral marches. A triumphal car containing tbe Florida gang would nave been in accordance with the everlasting fitness of things. This car oould have been decorated with representations of stuffed ballot-boxer, surrounded with mottoer. Indicative of a triumph such as a minority never before enjoyed, and inch as in all probability will never occur again. Such failures to meet the demands of tbe occasion were so apparent that the Sentinel, in the following exhibit, makes suoh amends as tbe occasion seems to require. The people ot Indiana may desire to see the vast extent of tbe obligations Ihey are nnder to Mr. Hsyca for the blessings of a free Government, aud to note psrticularly what the Government is paying for the priceless privilege of having him for a president. Tney may feel just a little indignant as they survey the list, and take in tbe full import of the whole proceeding. The dollar and cent feature of tbe business will not be overlooked. To pay more than $250,000 a year for the distinguished privilege of having something infinitely worse than a minority president is bad enough, but to know tbe means by which that minority triumphed is enough to make an average citizen wish that it had pleased Omnipotence to have constructed this moral universe with lees devil in it. But it is possible that ample provisions have been made for tbe final reception of all the crew particularly those who are eminently deserving of a warm reception.

JErr. DAJIIS AND "BEAUTOIB." Mr. Dorsey's Opinion of the Confederate President's Conduct Serious Charges A

- Cballe-ge and rrohably a Dae! la Frae'New York Herald.1 Mr. Jefferson Davis, ex-prcsident of the late "so-called," Is likely to bave an unhappy time in retaining the estates of his admirer, Mrs. Dorssy, devised to him by the last will and tee lament of that lady, and Into the possession of which he duly entered about a month ago. ' The theory advanced to support the validity of the will was that Mrs. Doraey, Imbned with a lofty and absorbing love ot tbe South in its late struggle for supremscy, had adopted the ex-president of tbe Confederacy as the embodiment ot "the lost cause," and in testimony thereof left him at her death all she bad on earth. This theory wss published in letters to the press by Mr. Edgar Howard Farrar, who claims to have been Mrs. Dorsey's lawyes. Farrar Is by marriage a nephew of Jefferson Davis, who benefits by Ferrer's action in the matter. Farrar claims to have made her will, the provisions of which she confided to him as early as 1878, and this will his bmsinesr partner deposited In the bank at New Orleans, whence it was produced after her death. Mrs. Dorsey's love for her relatives, which erst while found expression In promisee for tbe future, after the installation of JtS D,yis jo his position at Beauvoir, rwullcd in the banishment pf her nephew, who was the business mansge; of ber estate, and a seeming Isolation on her part from all of them np to tbe time of her death. Tbese relatives. North and South, the moment tbe disposition of ber property was made nablic pro tested loudly and declared their intention of contesting tbe will, and they have Kne to far that tbe matter will soon take a legal shej.e A report got into circulation that in addition to the suit to upset the provisions of the will wh' h Mr. Davis, through' his nephew has had admitted to probata, a suit of a graver character wonld be instituted against him and others for alleged conspiracy to deprive Mr. Dorsey's natural heirs of their rights, andforexerclslee undue influence over her mind, and for even a yet more serious ofler.se against the law. This report ' coming to the ears of Farrar be became indignant and threatened to make mince meat ot any of the relatives of the deceased who dared Impugn the integrity of his uncle. Two weeks ago, near New Orleans, he me Clar ence Kouth, one of tbe nephews of Mrs. Dorsey. frarrar was anlckly accused of fraud, and upon resenting the charge was tnresnea oy Jtiutn. receivlnz in tbe en counter a pair ot black eyes and sundry other contusions and injuries. One member of the family, however, coincidrs with tbe Davis set Msjor Clement Hill Walker, one ot her Southern nephews, between whom Colonel F. U. Kills, of Brook lyn, Mrs. Dorsey's brother, fighting; talk has been exchanged. In fact, tbe major has challenged tbe colonel, his nncle. to moslal combst unless be mskes a full retraction of all that was said in a private letter from the latter to his cepbew. A representative of the Herald accidentally encountered Colonel Kills on a Roosevelt street ferryboat tbe other morning, and tbe conversation natu rally drifted into the absorbing topic. "Has Jeff Dsvis evinced any disposition to loosen Ms grip on tbat estate of your sister's, colonel?" "Why. no." replied he. "he is like a leech. and intends to stay on it till the necessary amount of legal salt removes him." "But, Colonel," interjected tbe reporter. wny aid you not reply to tne attacks on you in Walker's letter?" "I nave no wisn myseii to enter into any newspaper controversy," said be. "thougu wben 1 meet one ot tbe boys, or one of tbem aueitlona me on tbe matter. I never hesitate to give my views on tbe subject. I can not mske public all I know in tne mat ter, because it might interfere with the trial of the case before the courts. As far as Walker's letter is concerned, which appeared in the New Orleans Democrat, I prouounce every statement therein made respectlngme to oe altogether false. 1 wrote htm a letter. in which I not only pronounced tbem false hoods, but I railed him a liar. In reply, be demanded tbat I retract tbe offensive word. or afford bim satisfaction, as tbe insult was a mortal one. Again 1 wrote bim, and in that oommuntcatlon I declined lo retract or nsht, but told him that tbe first time 1 met bim I should give him a good sound klckrog. Walker is a cousin, and thoueh a member of tbe family, has since the difficulty spent three or four weeks at Beanvoir with Jeff Davis, and he is the only one of us that is low enough to no so." "Is Farrar in any way connected with your family?" "No; be was introduced at Beauvoir by Jeff Davis. He claims to have been my sister's lawyer. That is a lie. He never was her lawyer, but Mr. Steele, of St. Joseph, La., was, and be is our counsel now I mean the counsel of tbe heirs to Beavnolr, Elk Ridge, Elliston and tbe other properties. Farrar married a niece of Jeff Davis, and bence was drawn into tbe matter. Clarence Routh gave him a good pounding a week or so ago for his part in the matter." "Are there any hopes, colonel, on your part, oi the courts throwing aside tne win 7 "I intend to Cent it out" speaking em phatically "if It expends all tbe property in legal expenses. You can rest assured that tbe revelations it win make win not redound to the credit of Jeff Davis, whom i consider a mean, sneaking well, tbat will come out in evidence hy and by. Wby, he and Farre r started the rumor that we were hunting for lawyers to take the case for a contingent fee. 1 pronounce this a lie. we never beard ot my sister's death until we saw it in a newspaper, and tbe will was offered for probate without tbe legal notice required nting sent to any of us. But as soon as we found what was going on we engsgea conn Bel. and their investigation previous to trial taken In connection with a letter 1 received from Jeff Dsvis. has sbed a great light on the mystery of ber conduct." "What would you havt me infer, colonel V "Just what I mean to say. The -whole cass la a trumped np game between Jeff, Farrar and others to get the property. Tbe contest will place Jeff Davis before tbe world as a scheming villain, and one of the few who conspired to play on tbe mind of a weak woman near her death. Jeff Davis is a damned shsrp schemer, but bis sharpness in this will not do him any good. He says tbe property is only worth $30 000, Then I sav so much the meaner for him to take so small an amount from those it belongs to wben he has enough and more without touching it Others say tbe estates are worth 2o0,000, but he can't get $30,000 for tbem if be wants to, as I don't mean he shall bave once cent from tbem "You spoke of a letter from bim to you. Can vou let ma aee that, colonel?' O 'No: I am sorry I can not Tbat letter is vital to some ot the points we make in our complaint. It kills mm ana nis oieim ana settles the whole matter, in my opinion. We have him foul.and shall bold bim right down to It, and, as it wUl bave Its weight on the trial, it can not be made publio now. One thing I can say of It, however. He says tbat up to tbe last moment my sister spoae in the kindest terms ot myself and family, and tbisDuts Walker's charges tbat she and I were bitter toward each other to the lie aenln " "Are all tbe other members of tbe family who claim to be heirs in accord with you, colonel?" "Yes," said he. "I go into tbe fight not for ray own sake, bnt for the sake of my children, and they all feel as I feel tbat if we can not gst our share of the property we will sink it all. And now in conclusion let me tell you that my sister died from unnecessary surgical operation." "What do yon mean by that, sir?" "I mean she was persuaded to undergo an altogether unnecessary surgical operation, and that will be proven on the trial."
