It ia stated now that Speaker Carlisle has positively declined the Treasury portfolio and that the President will offer it to Mr. Fairchiid. It is also stated that ex-Congressman Morrison will be made Chairman pf the Interstate Commerce Commission.

The Dubois County Democracy are jubilant over the appointment as Prison Director ot Editor Doane of the Jasper Courier. The Sen'-inel's Jasper correspondent says that he is thoroughly honest and a careful manager. These are the qualities needed lor his new duties. The practice of allowing boys the free" Use of fire arms can not be too much deprecated. Yesterday at Fort Wayne two boys were allowed to go hunting with a xifle. The sequel was that one returned to the city to relate how he had instantly, but accidentally, killed his companion. An attempt was made last night to hold a sort cf indignation meeting at Fort Wayne by Robertson, Sayre A: Co. a combination that seems torn and held together by cohesive power of mutual misery. Both are lavirg the piies for the Republican nomination for Governor they hate each Other cordially and are first-class donkeys from ear to heel. The Fort Wayne affair was a dhmal failure. When Harrisjn and the neighboring counties gather an overplus of thieves and other undeniable sorts of. citizens they rid the country of them by copious applications of hickory switches at the hands of masked men called "Regulators." Wifebeater; receive double dojes. It takes too much time and money to arrest and try them ia the courts. The result u said to be salutary. nv don't that 'One Hundred" Committee at Indiaxapalis tell the public the whole truth about the doctored returns of Marion County which e'.etfed two Representatives to the State legislature-.' Lafayette Courier. "The doctored returns'' did not elect two Representatives to tht Legislature. No well-informed person ever charged that they did. Don't confine your reading to the Indianapolis Journal. It will get yon. Into trouble. It is getting to be very unprofitable to steal from the State. The public ulcers, of Cook County, Illinois, who have been arrested for raisicg accounts and bribery, are threatened with the same fate that has overtaken the boodler Aldermen of New York City. The prestige of power acquired by continued success in draining the public treasury Into their own pockets proves an unsubstantial bulwark, now that the law bas stretched out its arm to gather them in. The fatalities of the Buffalo hotel holocaust, although not as numerous as the first telegrams indicated, are sufficient to have earned in tieir waka much terrible sorrow. A case in point, and one that comes home to Indiana, Is that of Henry D. Rumsey, of the United States Navy, whose temporary residence was at Fort Wayne. He lost bis life in attempting to save the life of a little Rirl. Mrs. Rumsey Is described by the Senticel'a correspondent at Fort Wayne aa "well nigh distracted" over the horrible fate of her husband. Thz women of Kansas appear to be ust like the women of Massachusetts and Wyoming and other sections of the country. They are reluctant to vote at he next election in that Ftafe when the opportunity will be gWa them. Thus does the woman tnflrase cause continue to be clogjed. Wten a Legislature is persuaded to grant the women the ballot. It is Invariably discorded that the women do not want it This Las been the case in MasfacLusetts, Wyoming Territory and Kansas. It therefore appears that the jyymea wfco clamor for rriyUes

represent only themselves. The vast majority ol the y omen of the country refuse to be aroused to a sense of wrong. They appear to be contented with the arrangement by virtue of which the man does the voting. Forty years have now been spent in the attempt to convince them that they are suffering oppression, but they are still unable to perceive that such is the fact.

To the Editor of the Sentinel : Sib The attached clipping, which, in my judgment, does gross injustice to the Indiana officeholders In this city, I can not permit to pass unnoticed, although I am ignorant of anyone to whom the article may refer. 1 am quite willing to accept it, however, with the slight amendment, to-wit: The last sentence with propriety might be reconstructed to read as follows: "They should be content with drawing their salary and keeping their moutos closed and their pocket-books open." Then, possibly, the Indiana office-holding element here would be in greater harmony with a few gentlemen at the "Hub." whose only interest appears to be dictated by sell-aggrandize-ment. Very respectfully, C. R. Faclkskr. Washington, D. C, March IS. The "attached clipping" to which Mr. Faulkner refers, was the following editorial paragraph from a recent issue of the Sentinel: A special to the Courier-Journal, which we reprint this morning, states that some Indiana Democrats now holding office In Washington think that the Indiana Democracy ii in a bad way. The opinion of these gentry Las no value whatever. They know nothing whatever about the spirit of the Democratic party in Indian i. They should be content with drawing their salary and keep their mouths clostd. We are very glad that Mr. Fau'kner did not permit the paragraph to "pass unnoticed," for it gives us an opportunity to reiterate its sentiments. It may be that Mr. Faulkner is "ignorant of any one to whom the article may refer." In that respect he differs from the Democrats of Indiana. During the late Legislative struggle, while the Democratic members were endeavoring to do their duty to the party, and were making the most gallant fight ever known in the history of Indiana politics, conspicuous members of the Indiana office-holding contingent at Washington were constantly giving out interviews calculated to disparage the Indiana Democracy abroad and wrongly stating the position of the j arty In the fight. They had no comprehension of the situation, and took apparent satisfaction In airing their ignorance and bad faith. In addition to all this, many of the Indiana office-holders at Washington are in the habit of strutting about the streets and departments at the capital, claiming to represent in their own persons the thought and policy of the Indiana Democracy, when m truth they represent nothing more than a set of fawners for Presidential lavors. There are Indiana Democrats holding office In Washington who are not of this stamp, but if Mr. Faulkner will cast his eye over the list he will have no difficulty in picking out the men to whom we refer. Shaker Sayre hes written a card to explain why he signed Senate bill 203 on the last day of the session and permitted it to become a law. He takes occasion to say that the Sentinel has told a falsehood about the matter. Speaker Sayre, as we have before remarked, is afflicted with a peculiar warp of intellect, in consequence of which be ia unable to comprehend a situation until its conditions have changed. The Sentinel was inaccurate In one respect, yiz., in stating that the Governor signed the bill. Tbat was an immaterial point, because the Governor filed the bill with the Secretary of State and 't is now a law. In all other respects the Sentinel was correct. Speaker Say re's backsight was developed at the expense of his foresight. He did sign the bill, and, the Sentinel is informed by the genteman who obtained his signature, without conditions. Speaker Sayre admits he signed the bill, and he also admits that be helped to secure Its passage. What did he do this for if he did not desire the bill to become a law? The man actually confesses tbat he was trifling with the interests of the people. This particular bill, by the way, which passed the House the last night of the session and which ia now in the Secretary of State's office bearing the signatures of both President Smith and Speaker Siyre, appropriates a small amount of money to pay a plasterer who had done some work for the State. We understand that the Auditor has shown some reluctance to authorize its payment, raising the technicality that it was passed too late in the session. We do not believe the Auditor will dare continue in his refusal, for if he should refuse and the case should be taken to the Supreme Court he would incur the risk of having the court decide that the law was valid. Such a decision would be another blow at the pretensions of R. S. Robertson. The Auditor will very probably make up his mind to draw the warrant. Tr there had been no votes cast for Lieutenant-Governor last November, the bitterest Republican partisan will admit that a Republican would have presided OTer the House and a Democrat over the Senate, and that nobody would have questioned the right of the Democrat to preside over the Senate. And if there had been no votes for Lieutenant-Governor cast at the November election the presiding officer of the Senate would have been A. G. Smith undoubtedly. The Republican members of the House and of the Senate refused to co-operate with the Democrats of the Senate in transacting the State's business the last twelve days of the session, although they had done so the previous forty-eight days, because they claimed to have found new reasons to support the pretensions of R. S. Robertson. What were those reasons? They have never been discovered. If it were wrong for the Republicans to co-operate with the Democrats after February 21, It was wrong for them to do so before that date. If, on tho other hand, it were right that they shoiM co-operate with Democrats before February 21, it was right that they should do so aftev February 21. Nothing happened on that or any other date to justify the Democrats in abandoning the position they bad taken at the opening of the General Assembly. On the contrary something bad happened to cause thtm Jo h?ld theix ground Ijro mfsibers

of the Supreme Court bad decided that the election of a Lieutenant-Governor last November was invalid. Of the remaining three members of the bench, who held that the court bad no right to consider the main question, one of them, Justice Niblack, explicitly maintained that the Senate was the sole judge of the qualifications of the presiding officer. All these opinions were to the advantage of President Smith and the Democrats. The Senate bad refused to go into canvass of the returns for Lieutenant-Governor, according to its right, and it thereby bad decided that the election of a Lieutenant-Governor last November was invalid. The Democratic position was absolutely lawful. The Democratic members created no disorder. They stood to their posts to the last, while the Republicans ran away. These are some plain, incontrovertible facta which it is worth while occasionally to recall, in view of the fact that Speaker Sayre, the leader of the Republican obstructionists, has taken to card-writing.

Mr attention has just been called to an editorial in your paper of the 15th last., based on a Sentinel editorial, in relation to the signing of Senate bill 20). It is misleading in that the Sentinel article lacks the very essential element of truth. The lie Is in these words; "Then, with the consent of the Speaker, it was taken to President Smith of the Senate." The fact Is. the bill came to the House February 21, before the deadlock was established. The House finally acted upon every Senate bill that was in the House, 203, however, haying been accidental overlooked until the night of the last day. Speaker Sayre In the News. We deduce from this that Speaker Sayre would have signed the bill and permitted President Smith to sign it if it had passed the House before the deadlock was established. What or who gave this man the right to fix a day in the middle of a legislative session which should mark the termination of legislative business? What law authorized the deadlock? Upon what theory can he explain to the people why he permitted bills to become laws before February 21 and refused to do bo after that date? He has the brazen assurance to stand before the people and say "I consented that laws should be made before February 24. but I withheld my consent after that date." The man writes himself down a trlfler and a usurper. The House Committee finds that the charges of the Civil Service Reform Association are proven; the Senate Committee finds that these charges were campaign lies, got up for the purpose of helping the Republicans elect a Lieutenant-Governor. The Freeman. 4 There must have been a deal of imagination utilized by the Civil Service Reformers in preparing the brochure for the late political campaign, from the confessions made by the gentlemen who'made it up. Reformer Howland confessed that he knew nothing about the alleged facts and signed them with that consciousness. Reformer Morton stated on the witness stand that he spent only a very few hours in the Insane Hospital and made up the pamphlet lrom ex parle statements, giving those most interested no opportunity of explaining the charges that be formulated against them. Reformer Foulke, like the war horse of Scripture, "smelt the battle from afar," but unlike the sagacious quadruped, he struck out for safety, and safely ensconced himself at Old Point Comfort underneath the friendly guns of Fortress Monroe. To call them "campaign lies" would be harsh. The Sentinel contents itself with dubbing them conscious misstatements. Messrs. Howlaso and Mortoa have printed a long commentary uion the report of the committee appointed by the Senate to investigate the management of the Insane Hospital. In the course of it they say: To avoid all possible confusion we would remind the public that the Trustees, and not ourselves, were on trial. To begin with, the committee was wholly Democratic, hence the unanimity of the report. The three Republican Senators withdrew early in the investigation. The three Republican Senators, it should be added, withdrew because the Republican members of the Legislature had determined that the State's business should not be done. Their withdrawal from this investigation vas but one of many other instances of neglect of duty. The Soldiers' Monument Commissioners will be appointed in a few dajs by the Governor. But what can they do? There is no money available to go on with the work, and who are to blame? The answer, fortunately, is brief and pointed. The Republican Obstructionists of the . Lower House of the Legislature are solely to blame, and these Obstructionists masquerade during every political canvass as par excellence the soldiers' friends. Not only waa there no money arranged for building the monument, but the soldier's orphan was left unprovided for, and also the poor feeble-minded creatures of the 8 täte. We repeat it, that the Republican Obstructionists of the Legislature are alone to blame for this state of affairs. President Cleyelasd was fifty yeirs 1 1 yesterday. It is therefore quite time that be should turn over a new leaf, and rid the public service of all the Republicans in it. He has now been President two years. During this time he has attempted to make a Democratic Administration by utilizing the services of Republicans and Mugwumps, to the exclusion of the men whose votes made him President. He has found it impossible to make a silk purse out erf a sow's ear, and he ought not to persist In the experiment. At fifty he should put away such absurd ideas and turn his atten tion to the sober realities of life and poli tics. The fact that the State officers have negotiated a loan of $333,000 at 3 310 per cent., the lowest rate a State has ever been able to secure for a short time loan, gives the lie to the Republican campaign charge that the Democrats had Injured the credit of the State. It was never higher than It is to-day, as this transaction shows. Thus dots time continue to reveal the false pretenses of the Republicans in the political contest of last falL The Democratic record brightens with the passing days. GoviEsoa G rat has done wisely in appointing Edward A. Hackett and Mary T. Wilson Trustees of the Feeble-minded Institute. Mr. Hackett Is the editor of the Fort Wyne Sentinel. The Democratic

party of Indiana will gladly stand re

sponsible for his efficiency. There is no better man In the State. He meets all the Jeflersonion requirements honesty, fidelity, and capacity. Miss Wilson's appointment will meet with commendation at all bands. She has devoted her life to this work and has for years given it her best thought and energy. Such appointments asthese do Governor Gray the greatest Credit. The feouthern people will 6how great respect to John Sherman if he tells them he is a brother cf the gentleman who conducted an excursion through that section shortly before tha close of the war. Philadelphia Enquirer. Yes, but would they not go into ecstacies if he should tell them just what part he played in the Radical Returning Board rascalities of Louisiana, whereby be aided in swindling Tilden and Hendricks out of their election? Mr. Sherman might make it still more pointed by explaining why it was that the same vote which elected the Republican Presidential electors of Louisiana elected a Democratic Governor of that Commonwealth. The correct answer to this conundrum, we believe, has never beengiYen. Tue Senate committee did not discover "rottenness" to any extent in the Southern Prison. They whitewashed the prison all they possibly could, and for days the Sentinel filled Its columns with editorials designed and intended to break the force of the exposures made by the Republican Home committee. The Journal. Both the statements made in the foregoing paragraph are untrue. Nothing is better known than that the Senate committee uncovered the corruption at the Southern Prison. Nothing could be farther from the truth than the statement that the Sentinel attempted to break the force of the exposures. It did just the other thing. It demanded the instant purification of the whole establishment. Si'eak er Carlisle say 8 he would not accept the Treasury portfolio. He said very recently: "No, indeed, I could not take it, and told the President so some time ao when the matter wes first mentioned. A while before the adjournment a hundred of my friends came to me and protested ia the most emphatic manner. They claimed that the aCairs of the House would be thrown into confusion in case of my resignation." CARLISLE IN BOSTON. His Democracy "All Wool and a Yard "Wide." Colonel Charles Taylor, the President of the Bay State Club, in welcoming Mr. Speaker Carlisle Saturday night to the hospitalities ol the club, said: "At the head of our distinguished guests we are glad to greet the able Speaker of the House of Representitives, the Hon. John G. Carlisle, of Kentucky. Applause and cheers. lie will speak to us on the National Democratic party and its principles. rApplause.l I have watched his career with a good deal of interest for years. I have hear J from many sources in both parties that he was at least one of the ablest and one of the most impartial Speakers the House Representatives has ever known. Great applause.! You can imagine my surprise when I read the other dy that he had been denounced as a usurper daughter with a capital V. Laughter.j I was amazed that Senator Hoar hisses wait till I get through with him should make that statement, and it occurred to me, to use one of his own illustrations in a re cent campaign, that Senator Hoar, when he made tLat absurd charge, must have set his mouth going and then went off and left It. Great merriment.l But I suppose it is as well understood in Washington as it is in Massachusetts, that when Senator Hoar criticises a Democrat it is positive proof that the Democrat is sound, patriotic and trustworthy (applause; in other words, his Democracy is all wool and a yard wide, and warranted not to fade. Applause. 1 "I think I voice your sentiments when I say that we would have received Mr. Carlisle to-day with open aims .applause J if his greatest virtue consisted in the fact that he has been denounced by Senator Hoar. We would gladly have welcomed him as an honored citizen of the magnificent State of Kentucky. lAtplause.l We vould have greeted Mm with a strong fraternal grasp simply aa a Democrat. We would have received him with plcasuie as a warm-hearted frieud, and a man of bread sympathies. Applause. We would have been delighted to have honored him as a thoughtful, progressive, patriotic and intelligent statesman. fApplausc.l We should have taken pride in entertaining him as one of the ablest Speakers in a long line of distinguished men. t Great applause.l But when he comes to us as he does, a strong combination of all these virtues and abilities, the English language, elastic as it is, can not express the intensity of our feeling orvoics the emotions of joy and pleasure which his presence gives to the Democrats of Massachusetts. I Great applause. I Gentlemen, I take great pleasure In presenting Hon. Jokn G. Carlisle, of Kentucky." Great applause and cheers. Good Work by Congress. South Bend Times.l A somewhat pain taking Inquiry into the work Of the Forty-niuth Congress more than confirms the good opinion hltherti expressed in these columns in regard to the achievements of that body. The more Important measures enacted into laws may be thus summarized: 1. Settling the succession of the Presidency. 2. Regulating the counting of electoral votes. 3. Repealing the Tenure of Office act, 4. Forfeiting and restoring to the public domain about 50,000,000 acres of land. 5. Prohibiting the ownership of lands by alien;. 6. Effectively dealing with the crime of polygamy. 7. Referring all private claims to the Court of Claims. 8. Giving money for last cruisers and for steel guns for all the new ships. 9. Ordering a thorough inquiry Into the atfalrs and management of the Pacific Railroads. 10. Authorizing the President to deal with the fishery troubles. 11. Regulating Interstate commerce. 12. Reducing the fees on postal money orders. 11. Extending the free dolivery system to cities of 10,0(0 inhabitants.. 1 1. Relieving the merchant marine Of a number of vexatious and needless burdens. 13. Redeeming trade dollars. 16. Prohibiting the use of convict labor on public buildings. 17. Ordering the adjustment of railroad land grants. IS. Allotting lands In severalty to Indians. 19. Authorizing the Issue of small silver certiacatei. 20. Giving money lor Congressional Library. Most of thco laws ars ol the greatest public importance and indicated the existence of a much higher order of statesmanship than that which characterized the Forty-eighth Congress. Perhaps the highest praise that can be bestowed upon a Congress is to be enabled to say In truth and, In fact, that no Jobs received Its official sanction. This commendation fairly belongs to the Forty-ninth and Is highly creditable to It. Had U Ktormed the laiUTajll lateral Esvgaaa

laws, and legislated to carry into effect the commercial treaty with Mexico, and had the Benate concurred in a few Land Forfeiture bills that were passed by the Honte, the Forty-ninth couid lay claim to having been the most useful Congress of a quarter of a century. Let us hope tbat the Fiftieth may be equally efficient and a litUe more so.

HE DRANK TO BLAINE. Sudden Decapitation of a Postal Clerk for OTemlT Language. Washington Correspondence Richmond Whig A few-days eg an Ohio Democratic politician, who is one of the appointees ot the present Administration, cme here upon some business. One evening, as most visiting statesmen do, he visited the varieties There he met a young man who was abusing the President, the Postmaster-General and the whole Administration in the most fcu'-iaouthed manner, using language the indt c-nt profanity of which could not even be Indien I in print. This young man approached the hit and shouted for everybody to come and drink with him O Blaine. "2Tone," he swore with a string of oaths, "can drink with me unleps he drinks to B'aine." The Ohio statesman was equal to the emergency. Til drink with you," he cried, "and drink to Blaine, too." "Come on, oM biy," wai the reply. They drank. In fact, they drank several times. The Chio Democrat encouraged his new acquaintance to talk fresly. He aid talk. He repeated all his former abuse of the Administration and added to it. They exchanged cards and parted. Yesterday the Ohi man called upoi the Postmaster General with a letter from a prominent member of Congress vouching for his reliability. He told the ro9tmastcr-&-n3rat just what he had teen and tea rd. and gave the man's name and occupatfon. The Itmaster-Genera' rang the tell tor the messenger. "Ask tbv General Superintendent of Railwaj Mil Service to come here a', ones." Mr. Nash appeared. "Mr. Nasb," taid General Vilas. "I am informed so and so," rcpeatiog the Information. "Make an older dismissing from the service at once J. R. McMillan, Railway Postal Clerk between New York and Washington, for conduct unbecoming an oilicer and gentleman." The order was issued yesterday, and to-day Mr. McMillan, who lives In Washington, is wondering how It happened. Tli Democratic 'Position Strengthened. Rushvllle Jackson'an.J Judge Kiblack's opinion greatly strengthens the Democratic position, and leaves the Republicans without excuse for preventing legislation by the dead-lock. Bills slgaed by either Smith or Robertson wonid have become laws. But Republican legislators refused to do anything, because they could not force Democrat, to accept aa Correct Republicans' interpretation of the Constitution, when Democrats had as good a right to Interpret aa the Republicans had; and the Democratic Interpretation is clearly right, for one Circuit Judge and two of the five Supreme Judges have said that Robertson was not legally elected, the other Judges giving no opinion on the question. Republicans simply attempted their old game oi iorce and fraud to get possession of the affairs of the State and elect a United States Senator, and faUIn?, prevented needed legislation. They are terribly exasperated on finding Democrats abounding in wisdom, courage and patriotism. Heecher's Voice. IKcw York Special. Iu the house of Thomas A. Edison, at Llewelyn Park, is a remarkable memento of Bcccher. The inventor's phonograph for impressing on a soft metal sheet the utterances of the human voice and then emitting it again by the turning of a crank, has never been put to any very valuable use, sua Edison has only gained from it a few thousand dollars in royalties from exhibitors, but he utilized It to make a collection of famous voices. Since he became famous, his visitors have included hundreds of celebrities. Instead of asking them for their autographs, or photographs, he has la two or three hundred Instances, requested them to speak a few sentences Into a phonograph. He has kept the plates in a cabinet, and occasionally he runs some of them through the machine, sends out the words exactly as uttered. Edi-on is probably the only man who can revive the silenced voice of the great preacher. A Few Cranks Left. Scott County Journal. There are a few cranks, both North and South, who endeavor to keep up a strife between the two sections. Oue of these is the editor of the Plain rx-aler. He uses the expressions "Confederate Administration," "Rebel Democracy," etc We venture the prediction that the gentleman was not In the army and tbat he never did a single act to save the Government, Brave soldiers who defended the Union know that half their ranks were made up of Democrat who marched boldly to the Iront to save the country, and they do not talk in that strain. Only stay-at-home Republicans use such expressions, Anything lie Wants. Michigan City Dispatch. "If the President will kindly step In and help Indiana Democrats let go they will be delighted. They want him to appoint Green Smith District Attorney in place of Judge Turpie." Elkhart Review. The Dispatch seconds the motion. President Cleveland could not perform a more graceful act, and no better appointment couia be male. Green Smith is not only a good lawyer, but he is a Democrat who possesses an abundance ot nerve, backbone and grit. The Dispatch ia favorable to Green Smith for anything that he desires.
