WASHINGTON LETTER.

(From our regular correspondent.) The latest administration stomp speaker is Commissioner Evans, of the Pension Bureau, now in Tennessee and slated to go to Illinois, Indiana, and Ohio. 'The word has been passed along to all federal office holders, big and little, that the more work they do in the Congressional campaign, the higher they will stand with the administration, and those, who are not in a position to do any can square themselves by a cash contribution. * * * The speeches made by Mr. McKinley on his western trip were not impromptu by any means. On the contrary, they were carefully prepared before he left Washington, as a result of numerous conferences with Boss Hanna and other party leaders, and, while apparently non-partisan, were intended to aid the republicans in the Congressional campaign, by harping on the necessity of the country’s presenting a united front and standing by the administration until the treaty of peace had been signed. It was a shrewd political dodge, as it is certain that the treaty of peace will not be made public until after the Congressional elections, even should it be concluded before then, which is not at all probable.

The style in which Mr. McKinley’s Commission started upon its junket of the army camps, beginning with that of Gen. Fitz. Lee, at .Jacksonville, Fla., indicates that the people will have to pay an enormous bill for this up to this time entirely useless luxury. A special train of five cars; two Pullmans, Gen. Dodge’s private car, a dining car, and a baggage car, was required to carry the Commission and its hangers-on. This train will arrive at Jacksonville today. If the program was fully made out when the commission left Washington, it was not made public, further than that the commission would remain several days at Jacksonville, and that Tampa, Fernandina, Huntsville, Chickamauga Park, Knoxville, and other places will probably be visited before it returns to Washington. The pay of the commissioners has not yet been settled, and report says will not be until after election. An itemized account of the expenses of that special train during the junket would be quite an interesting document, and, inasmuch as there is no appropriation either for the commission or its expenses, it would also be interesting to know from what money its expenses are to be paid. ♦ * •

Circumstances alter cases, in politics as well as in other things. A week ago the republicans were pointing to the odds offered on “Teddy” Roosevelt by betting men, as indicating what a cinch he had on the governorship of New York. Now. when odds are no longer to be had and thousands of dollars offered to bet even, remain uncovered, these same republicans are saying, “the betting really has nothing to do with the campaign.” This complete somersault is one of the most amusing features of the campaign. As a matter of fact, the change in the betting h’as been brought about by the change in the situation. When Roosevelt was nominated, the betting men thought he could be rushed through the campaign on the hurrah, and that voters of the j state would forget everything else ■ but that he was a brave soldier in the Santiago campaign; consequently they backed him for a winner. They have discovered the slump in the hurrah, and now they want to hedge. Lots of things have shown up against Roosevelt, not the least of which is the almost solid opposition of the Germans, one of the most prominent of whom —Oswald Ottendorfer, editor of the Staats Zeitung—calls Roosevelt “a big boy” and a “sensation monger.” ** ♦ ' , One of the witnesses, and, by the way, he was the only naval officer who has testified before Mr. McKinley’s alleged Investigation Commission, stated that if the Navy had not gone to the assistance of the army, the army sent to Santiago never would have been landed. The witness —Lieut. Frank K. Hill, who was detailed from the battleship lowa to take charge of the debarkation of Shafter’s army—continued, without waiting to be questioned: “Gen. Shafter himself said that. The army came with but one lighter, which was about the size or this room. There were thirty-six transports with men and provisions, and the plan of landing was for the Cubans to advance on Baiquiri, while the Navy shelled the beach to clear the way for the landing. The army did

not come prepared to land, and it was necessary to call upon the navy for transportation to the shore.” Instead of taking advantage of the lead thus given to ask something about why the army was not properly prepared to land, the commissioners tried to get funny by asking about building a dock for Gen. Shafter to be landed upon, and whether they had to use derricks, etc. If this commission stumbles upon anything that is not complimentary to Alger, it will be done unintentionally or told voluntarily by some witness, like Lieut. Hill, who was temporarily given a chance to talk without being compelled to confine himself to answering questions asked. The fight for better and more economical county government being waged by the Jasper County Democrat should appeal to the sense and judgement of every taxpayer in Jasper county. For years tax-ridden by one of the most extravagant political rings that ever preyed upon a long suffering people, the turning point has come. There are times when a long suffering people refuse to listen to appeals to “stand by the ticket” and vote for their own interests. We believe that this Is one of those years In Jasper county.—Delphi Times. Bring your buggy, wagon and harness wants to Judy and The Lief Buggy Company- and they will supply you. They have the material and ability to do it.

DIDN’T WANT CRUMPACKER.

Judge Crumpacker has withdrawn his appointment in this county for Oct. 10th on account of business which requires his presence at home on that day.—Herald. This is another one of those little innocent jokes that the Herald gets off to deceive its readers. This appointment was for a meeting at Idaville. The people of that burg didn’t want to hear Crumpacker, and pointedly told him so. A visit to Idaville by Chairman Beard failed to fix things up, and the appointment had to be cancelled. The “business” at home was manufactured for the occassion.—White County Democrat.

A SUDDEN DEATH.

Mrs. R. S. Dwiggins died suddenly from heart disease at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Hardman, on Cullen street, where she and Mr. Dwiggins were making their home, on Thursday morning. Deceased was a little past 62 years of age, and had been a resident of Rensselaer since 1860. A husband, two children, Elmer and Jay Dwiggins, now in Europe, survive her. The funeral was held yesterday at 3:00 p. m. from the Church of God, of which deceased was a faithful and consistent member, Rev. F. L. Austin conducting the services.

WALLACE STIVERS DEAD.

The remains of Wallace Stivers, who died in a hospital at Jacksonville, Fla., last Thursday, Oct. 13, after a week’s sickness of stomach trouble, arrived home on the early train Monday morning, accompanied by Samuel Ballard, of Monon, a member of the same company. Young Stivers was a member of Co. I, 161st Indiana, and was but a little over 18 years lof age, He was born at Waynetown, Ind., and the remains were taken there for burial. His mother. Mrs. R. A. Gibson, of this place, and two brothers and one sister are left to mourn his death. He had been in apparent good health until taken down with his brief illness. His was the second death to occur in Co. I. There is considerable sickness in the regiment, and two others were brought home for burial a t the same time as young Stive j.

THE POLITICAL BOSS.

His brain is alive with political tricks. He makes wily, traps in his dreams. He loads his sly servants with party gold bricks . To forward his buncoing schemes. He’ll smile upon any political bum Who’ll help him bear obloquy’s cross. He’ll sacrifice honor to capture his plum The lordly political boss. He cares not a rap for the land he should love. Its welfare is nothing to him. His own selfish interests tower above All else when he gets in the swim. The country at large to the limitless fires Of hades he’d speedily toss If that would insure his ambitious desires The wolfish political boss. He hasn’t a principle worthy the name His conscience is senseless as wood. His heart never glows with a generous flame. Or beats with an impulse that's good. His nature seems dead as a sun-seasoned log. Is covered with selfishness moss. His instincts are leveled to those of th® hog. The bosA When hoisted to power his slaves are but trash Unworthy a grip of his hand; He serves his constituents only for cash, And oft wears the bribery brand. He’ll scheme and he’ll plot to the end of the race Then o’er the dark river he'll cross. And try to scheme Belzebub out of his place. The shy old political bossi —Denver Post. We challenge the republican organs here to make public a full, true and honest statement of that temporary loan; The stenographer’s report of the conversation between the county commissioners and the furniture contractors held at Chicago; The number and names of the people who accompanied said commissioners down to Milwaukee on the lake steamer when they went to buy that $2,300 clock; About “Honest Abe’s” court house yard campaign thunder; , Why those pages were really cut fromthe commissioners record; Why the entry as first made of interest paid on that $4,000 loan was erased from both the commissioners docket and record; if the loan has ever really been paid, and why the warrant issued for this loan was not included in the outstanding warrants as published by the auditor in his annual reports; If this loan has not been paid, why was the tax levies reduced, unless for political purposes? The law under which the county pay for affidavits attached to county bills; The amoun the auditor’s office as at present conducted pays the auditor; All about that last year’s contract for furnishing books and stationery for the county. If these are fully explained we will next week propound a few more questions in which taxpayers are deeply interested in knowing the truth of.

REPUBLICAN CURRENCY REFORM.

House bill No. 10,289. which embodies the ••comprehensive aud enlightened monetary legislation” declared for in the Republican platform, is framed upon two principles. The first is to make gold our only money, strictly speaking; and the other is to give national brnks the right to issue all currency and the power to control its volume. In my last letter I discussed their proposition to make oar silver redeemable in gold and tn this I wish to draw attention to the change proposed in our currency. „ , The object which the bill seeks to attain is the retirement and cancellation of the United States notes, or paper currency, and the substitution of national bank currency in its stead. The paper money of the United States, consisting of their noninterest bearing notes, amount to about $450,000,000. and by the plan proposed these shall be retired to let the national banks issue an equal amount of their noninterest bearing notes. That is what their bank notes will be, amply noninterest bearing demand notes, which Will be our sole currency for the transaction of business. Tnesethey will loan at the usual bank rates to the people who, in borrowing money, will have to give the banks interest bearing notes for notes that bear no interest. The government will, by the change, thus enable the banks to reap the interest on the currency wbirit they do not now have. At 6 per cent, the interest secured by the national banks on tho $450,000,000 of their currency, which will supplant tho currency of the government, will be $K,000,000 annually. Beridee, this currency is to be issued on their ‘l—err." in the beginning the bank is required, before being parrel ttod to issue its currency, to exchange greenbacks with the nattonal treasury nr “reserve notes,” to aa asoount equal to one-fourth of its cupitaL This is to offset the caaceUauon of tho greenbacks, and the “reserve” notes are to bo nkU mntoty redeemed by the government to gold, thus indirectly securing tho gold redemption of the gwretarb* and their leoir notion.

The tank is also roqsdrod to deposit tawfa with ths national txvaauiy to an aroownt eqnal totbecomncy ttay Imm on their “assets.** hot on these beads ttay assy tone. as they do now (nnd to addition to their “asset** onmney). their nntionnl back notes; and the bond* may be withdrawn at the end of eight yaara. leaving their iasae of notes sadcuxrsaoy Hraitad and bached only by their paid ap and unimpaired capital. In the end the revolt is this, that they have been allowed to create currency on their assets toning money up to 80 per cent their capital without paying a cent of tax or interest on it, and issuing to the fun amount by paying 6 per eent on all money toned over the 80 per cent of the capital. This is the “enlightened currency** of the Republican party for which our greenbacks are to be destroyed. It is true that two funds are established for the redemption of there bank notes. (M A 5 per oentguiantee fund of gold, which each bank stall keep on deposit for redemption of its own notes. But the notes of each bank are to be payable only at its office, and once issued they will be scattered far and wide over the country. They will pass current, will be accepted to business, being the sole currency to use, end their practical redemption is not anticipated. (2.) A “reserve” fund of gold is held by the netjnnal trosvnry intn which each bank will pay an amount equal to 5 per cent of its circulation, and this is. to be used to redeem a bank’s notes only on failure of the bank. It is, in fact, not expected that the banks shall redeem this currency. They are to be given the right to issue practically an irredeemable fiat money. Why, the banks would dose their doora at the suggestion of actual redemption. The government maintains a “gold reserve” fund of $100,000,000 —often more, never less—more than 20 per cent of its demand obligations, and yet they say the government cannot maintain redemption, that the greenbacks are a menace to our national credit, and that “the government must go out of the banking business.’’ And to teach the public and to prepare them for a “comprehensive change,” a conspiracy has been formed between the recent treasury officials and the banks, the first establishing the policy of gold redemption and the latter cornering the greenbacks and with them raiding the government and robbing it of its gold. And now, having demonstrated that the government, with all of its inexhaustible resources, cannot maintain gold redemption on a 20 per cent reserve fund, they propose to do it on a 5 per cent fund! Neither can do it. They simply propose a system under which gold will be the sole money and bank notes the sole currency—gold to pay the public debt and to measure and fix the value of a dollar, and their currency to circulate irredeemably among the people. And this currency ia to be issued on their “assets.”

The average man usee his assets to borrow money on; by what right shall these corporate failings of the Republican party nee their Meets to create money on? Ton want money—currency. You take your note, secured by your assets and bearing 8 per cent interest, go to tits tank and. with “bated breath and whispering humbleness.” ask them to giro yon their notes backed by their assetsand bearing no interest. And why? Simply because the law will make these highly engraved noninterest bearing bank notes our sole currency; because the government will surrender to these institutions the constitutional privilege of toeing money. It is impoetible to discuss bare all the evils contemplated in this measure. A consideration of the bill will suggest them to the thoughtful ettixen. Yet this is the “currency reform” inaugurated by the Indianapolis monetary convention. introduced in congress by Overstreet of Indiana, reported favorably by the committee on banking and currency as house bill No. 10.289. and the meatUro that H. EL Henna, chairman of the Indianapnlis committee says, a careful poll of the house shows will bo supported by ths Republican majority in congress. Are you really to favor of each “comprehensive and enlightened monetary legislation?” Hxnx Wambv*. ,

Kirk et al which was filed on Oct 29,1891, and has been continued from term to term, was dismissed, each party paying their own cost. In the tax cases a portion of them were sent to Benton county on change of venue, and in the other cases a, motion to make the complaint more specific was sustained. These cases were up before Judge James V. Kent of Frankfort. Adda D. Crosscup was granted a divorce from her husband Chas. Crosscup. and the custody of her three children. Hattie Meyer of Remington, was granted a divorce from her husband, George D. Meyer. In the case of Christopher Schroeder vs. Dorothea Schroeder, for divorce, defendant filed cross-

In the matter of the Iroquois ditch case, same was argued by Judge Thompson, who appealed for himself individually, and E. B. Sellers of Monticello, who appeared for the commissioners. On motion to make the complaint more specific and on demurrer to the complaint, Thompson took the position that the commissioners having found that there was a sufficient outlet that this relieved the petitioners from all cost, and that the county could only reimburse itself by ordering the ditch constructed and selling the bonds. Mr. Sellers took the grounds that should the case be dismissed at any time or for any cause the petitioners were liable for costs. Judge Kent took the case under advisement and will render decision next Thursday. S. N. Chambers of Indianapolis;, Senator Youchee of Crown Point; Jasper Guy and Ira W. Yeoman of Remington; Wm; Cummings of Kentland; E. B. Sellers of Monticello; Prosecutor Chizum of Morocco, were among the attorneys from other places attending court this week.
