" Daniel Ivery, a drayman of Wabash, for many years a resident, was found in his bed dead a few mornings ago. He hadbeen drinking heavily, and the day before pur“chased twenty-five cents worth of morphine at a drug-store, which it is supposed he took at one dose while under the influence of liquor. e .

‘The people of Roann at a recent election decided to incorporate. i William and Emanuel Lewis, two roughs living south of Wabash City, were arrested the other day by Sheriff Ross on a charge of riot. Thes¢ fellows some days before attacked a party of young folks returning from adance, with ¢lubs anll stones, seriously injuring two young ladies.. They were put under bonds for their appearance in the c¢riminal court. i

' After taking evidence for two weeks the Howard County Grand Jury on the 17th returned a bill indicting William Siver, J. W. Learned, George Bennett and Asher Bennett for manslaughter, for -the killing of Mayor Cole, while in the act of robbing the Spring flouring-mills in Kokomo some weeks ago. The trial will not be called till some time in December. The finding of a “bill against them- by the Grand Jury Was the wish of the parties . charged in order that-they may have an opportunity to make a legal deferse in ustification of the killing. Senator Voorhees and Major Jonathan W. Gorsdlon will be employed by the prosecution. The result of> the trial will be watched with great interest by the general public. Itis expected the trial will make many interesting developments not heretofore known to many outside the Government Secret Service. ;

In the cases of Heflin, a cigar-dealer, and Brown, a druggist, charged with-desecrat-ing the Sabbath by the sale of cigars, the Criminal Court at Indianapolis on the 17th held that the former was guilty under the law and the’ other not guilty. The cigardealer, pleaded that his business: was manufacturing and selling cigars, and that he sold the cigars in question to a habitual smoker to whom they' were a necessity. The druggist relied upon the fact that the caseé from which the sale was made is an incident to the drug ‘business,.and he claimed that it could be as legitimately used as the prescription case, the use of which is not questioned. b ¢ :

Tom . Lucket, of West Louisville, a farodealer, was killed on the night of the 15th at Herron’s saloon, in Owensburgh. -It is not known who did the killing. For some days. past spurious coin has been circulating in Evansville. The officers tracked -it to the market, where two men named E. C. Brobson and John Miller were passing it. “They would ply their vocations in this style: They would go’ to one of the farmers and buy five ceuts’ worth of vegetables and hand out one of their spurious quarters and get 'gzood money in return. Officers tracked them about two miles from the city, where they had a tent and where the ‘““‘queer’” was made. They approached the tent carefully on the 17th and arrested them. When taken to the jail they were locked up. and the officers returned to the tent, where they found a lot of .spurious coins, consisting principally of dimes and quarters. P

. An.investigation of the Poor-Asylum of Lawrence County by the Grand Jury has developed a state of affairs in that institution that both astonishes and disgusts the entire community. The bedding was found to be in a horribly filthy condition, swarming with vermin and sending forth odors so nauseating as to turn the stomachs of the gentlemen making the investigation. ‘One poor demented pauper was found confined in a ~room alone in a perfectly naked state. The focd used in the asylum was discovered to be of the veny poorest quality, containing but little nourishment. There is also a lack of medical treatment, and the inmates are in a manner almost destitute of comfortable clothing. The paupers, when requested to express themselves freely and tell all about their abuses, seemed timid, and one of them said they were afraid to talk, for fear that when the jury left they would be placed in the shower-bath—a most brutal punishment that is, it is said, frequently resorted to by the Superintendent, and one that is feared almost equal to death by the paupers. The Jury calls upon the Board of County Commissioners to take hold of the matter and: put things in proper shape. ‘ “ Robert Bloskie, an old and miserly hinch‘back of Wabash, who chme from Germany to Wabash nine years ago, died under cir-. cumstances indicating that he had been poisoned. The Coroner was summoned and an inquest was held, though the verdict reached was based altogether on hypothesis. For eight years past Bloskie had ground a hand-organ in :the towns of Northern Indiana. In Wabash he wandered about the streets picking rags, bones and old iron from the gutters and obtaining the greater portion of his food from slop-barrels. He was also a great lover of dog flesh, and itis known that during the past five years he had killed and eaten over one hundred dogs. From this he received the sobriguet of “Dog Eater.” (pinion as to how he came to his death is divided, the generally accepted theory being.that he had contracted disease from the filth which surrounded him, and that the ravages of disease had been aided by starvation. 'At the time of his death old ‘‘Dog’ Eater’”” had some $1,500 in cash in the house; but, miser-like, refused to spend any of hig hoard even to save his lite. Bloskie’s death created a genuine sensation in Wabash. - k - :

Robert McGaughey, a citizen of Louisville, died at Shelbyville on the night of the 15th by accidental poisoning. McGaughey did business in Louisville,but his family lived in Shelbyville. He came to see -them a few days before, and, feeling unwell, a physician prescribed strychnine, ten drops in water. His wife .mistook the directions, and gave him several doses, a tablespoonful at'a dose.

Mrs. Joseph Pattison, of Indianapolis, went to Rushville a few days ago to visit a friend, and, in ¢rossing the hall preparatory to retiring for the night, she hecame bewildered and fell over the balusters, receiving serious end fatal injuries.

" At Indianapolis on t/h,e 15th Thomas H. Litzenberg, teller ot the First Nationa: Bank, filed a civil snit against Messrs. Howard & Denig, Stite-House contractors, for the collection of the value of warrants issued on the July pay-roll of employes, and which were payable August 10. ' About $1,500 is involved, and the complaint alleged that the warrants had been purchased from Edward Denig, who had bought them from the workmen. The State-House confractors denounced the indorsements on the warrants as forgeries, on the strength of which a warrant was sworn out by plaintiff for the arrest of Edward Denig for forgery, and it was found that he had thrown up his positien as bookkeeper for the firm and skipped the town. The fugitive is a brother of one of the contractors, and has been leading a wild life in Indianapolis. Whether any greater amounts are involved is unknown.

About two years ago the Trustees of Pur- ’ due Callege, at the instance - of the faculty,’ passed a resolution forbidding the organi- ' zation of any Greek or secret society in the college. This action caused cohsiderable trouble among the students, and led to a ' number of them refusing to return and finishtheir course. At a later meeting of the ' Purdue Trustees a petition was handed in -by a number of students askiug that the order be abrogated. This was refused, the Board, with the exception of J. C. Dobel- [ bower (who was a member at that time), voting in favor of leaving the orderstand on. the record. From that time all students ‘ “before being admitted were compelled to i sign a pledge-that they would not join or help organize any secret society. In September, at the opening of the college, sev=" eral students who wished to enter refused to sign the pledge, and were therefore debarred the privileges of the college. Among this number was Thomas P. Hawley. A‘f few days ago action was begun by Hawley and Samuel S. Stallard against Prof, E. E. ’ White and the college faculty in the Cirecuit | Court, and the County Clerk issued a writ | of mandate commanding Emerson E. White ‘ to admit Thomas P. Hawley as a student of Purdue University, and in default thereof l to appear ‘before the Circuit Court on the | 24th of October to show cause why said stu- | dent should not be admitted. . |

- At Indianapolis on the ISth Ernest Bose, a saloon-keeper, filed a heavy damage suit against Mrs. Mary Rentz, a wealthy German woman and owner of the biock in which plaintiff is Jocated, alleging that the defendant frequented his place in an intoxicated condition, remaining there for days despite his prétest, and by drunkeness and obscenity frigchtened away the better class of his customers. 5 :

~ —Here is an instance of how the desire for land has increased its value in England. In 1839 a Dorset farmer entered on a farm at a yearly rental of £3BO. On the renewal of the lease in I#sl the rent was put up to £450, and in 3862 to £675, at the latter date 25 acres being addded to the holding. In 1877 the rent was further raised to £725, nearly double the rate of forty years before, and withoit change of tenancy. During that period the cost of labor had increased 50 per cent. '

The success of Mr. Windom in the management of National finances is cheertuily conceded by the general public. % C Ny ‘With the consent of President Garfield, Mr. Windom enacted a three-and-a-half per cent. Funding bill, in lien of the three per cent. bill that Mr. Hayes. in’ compliance with the demands of bankers, had slaughtered with a veto. Having thus ably provided a law for a great emergency, Mr. -Windom proceeded to execute his extemporized statute, and found no diffieulty in replacing the sixes and fives with his three-and-a-half per cent. bond—thus redvcing interest on the exchanged ‘bonds to a point only a half of one per cenf. higher than would have been reached "if* the Funding bill of the Forty-sixth Congress had not been Eilled. i ey

But despite this success and the general popularity of Mr. Windom, he is credited with a sensible desire to get backinto the Senate. Theseatwhichhe vacated is now filled by a Gubernatorial appointee, and Mr.. Windom will find no serious obstacle in the way of his return by election in January. The President is believed to have defermined that a certain piece of work on which Mr. Windom entered, and which he suddenly abandoned, shall be commenced denoto, and prosecuted to the end tglentlessly, no matter how many galled jades wince. . President Arthur is not a repudiator in any sense of the word. He owes a large debt to Mr. John Sherman, who, Wit%l the aid of Mr. Hayes, put Collector Arthur out of the New gogk Cus-tom-House, assuring the Senate and the country that it was impossible to put a stop to fraudulent and corrupt practices in that establishment until My. Arthur’s official head was laid low. e We make no doubt that Mr. Sherman is ready to forgive his debt. He went to New York in 1878, =and again in 1880, and, in effect, humbly apologized to Conkling, Arthur, Cornell & Co. for all that he had said and done in the Custom-House affair. He made public apology to Mr. Arthur and the Stalwarts generally in Ohio last fall. And now, when the man whom he and Mr. Hayes so contemptuously spurned is in the Presidential office, there can bg no question that Mr. Sherman would Igost cheerfully let Mr. Arthur off without any attempt to cancel the old obligativn. ; : £k . .

Mr. Windom will remember that the Fost, in friendly spirit and kindly manner, urged him to go on with the good work he had undertaken. But Mr. Sherman at that time was heard to remark that the mission of the Garfield _Administration seemed to be to make “the Hayes Administration~odiocus—or ,words of like import. Then it was that Mr. Windom, called a halt and threw a big double blanket of charity overa scandal that spromised rich deyvelopments. ; Then it was that the ¢ champagne * lunches,” the ¢ Treasury Queen,”” the ¢ First National Bank of New York correspondence,’”’ the ‘¢ ewployment of Government men and material for private uses’’ and many other awful hints were hustled out of sight by Mr. Windom because, as was a.lleged},' he could not go or without exposing corrupt practices-on the part of one or more of his predecessors. This was asserted by correspondents and editors of reliable Republican newspapers. We might be sorry for Mr. Sherman —on whom time has already revenged Mr. Arthurrathereffectually—if it were not for the fact that the public good demands the proposed investigation. -We shall ' not enjoy further glimpses of the ¢ Treasury Queen,”” nor shall we delight . in the order of ‘‘champagne ‘lunches” billed as ‘* candles’—all this will be painful to the publie, for it will distress Mr. Sherman, and he has been ‘distressed sufficiently. ; :

" - But it is high time for a thorough overhauling of the Treasury. Investigations ordered by a Democratic House or 'a Democratic Senate have been adroitly misled by inside manigulators. 1t is next to impossible for any committee to get at facts in a ‘department if that department is opposed to the exposure of the facts. Mr. Sherman could sit in his office in calm content while committees of Congress were being successfully bamboozled by Mr. Sherman's agents. ; fe ; . All this will be changed when the Treasury investigates itself. When President -Arthur directs his Secretary of the Treasury to turn the Sherman administration inside out and shake it, the country will know how much of truth there is in the serious charges that have been hanging like a dark cloud over that department. - - Washington Post. ; :

Platform of the New York Democracy. The following is the platform adopted at the recent New York Democratic State Convention: The Democratic party of New York renews its fidelity to the principles set forth by the ‘New York State Democratic Conventions of 1874, 1875 and 1576, which were thrice approyed at the ballot-boxes by the people of the Em‘pire State, and were vindicated by ‘the Wwise administration of the Democratic State Executive then chosen, and to the principles set forth by the National Democratic Convention at St. Louis, which was approved by decisirte, popular and electoral ‘majorities in the Presidential election of 1876. The victories then ‘won in this State and in the United States were in the name und for the sake of reform. 'The people were Gefrauded of the fruits of vietory in the Federal elections by a false count of Electoral votes in 187¢ and flagrant corruption in the elecrion of 18%0. Reform throughout the Federal Administration isstill a necessity. The continuing disclosures of new and hitherto concealed ptundering of the pevgple's tfunds by inner rings in the Treasury, the Postofice, and the Interior Departments demonstrate that reform is now more than ever a necessity. It remains tor the National Democratic party to restore the Federal Government to the fraternalspirit, the constitutional pringciples,’the frugal expenditure and the administrative purity of the fathers of the Republic. It remains, likewise, for the Democracy of the State of New York, as their first political duty, to resume and carry on to the sutcesstul completion in all the départments. of its Government the great measures and policy of administrative reform which, between 1874 and 1876, reduced by one-half the burden of our State taxation, and which then. and during the three succeedinf,years. established throughout the Executive D partments 'vlgo;e economy and fidelity to publictrusts, To th immediate end this Convention pledges the united efforts of the Democracy of New York, and ot the loyal devotion of the ‘nominees whom it shall commend to tae choice of their follow-citizens. . N Hey g The assassination of- the late President.of the United States was a crime against author ity, against free institutions and against hus manity. We deplore and denouncé the crime in all its public and private aspects. We extend a 8 citizens our most profound condolence to the family of the murdered Chief Magistrate, and regard with great gratification the universal expressions of sympathy extended by all Nations and people. . e We renew the expression of our demand for the refunding of the National debt st the lowest possible rate of interest. ke ‘1 The New York Democracy. as always, stand

by gold andl]livcr as the legal tender of the, Constitution, and by the doctrine that all paper medinms of money must be based on ._tbe%g metals at the standard values of the world. ‘ : - . Wedemand the payment, principal acd interest, of every dollar ot the !_?nbnc indebted‘nefi, Readjustment is repudiation. The act' of Northern Republican leaders in giving the support of that purty to repudiation in Virginia, Mississippi, Minnesota and other States is a National disgrace, dangerous as a precedent. and destructive of public credit. We call upon Demdcrats in Congress to maintain the standard of -retrenehment by which their Democratic predecessors reduced the Federal expenses $40,000.000 in a year. ‘We demand a thorough and immediate investigation into the Star-route and other frauds upon the Federal Treasury, and tie vigorous prosecution—already too long delayed—of all participants, both high and low, in - these- grave crimes, whereby the moneysof the people were stolen irom the Treasury, and plunderers ' were made to provide.g corruption fund which was used to CArry 'Z“Tlast Presidential election for the Republican party. s We indorse and applaud tbat united and honest action for Democratic prineipies and eandidates of the fifty-four Democratic members of the last Legiclature. They honored their State, their party, and themseives. We denounce the Republican majority, because that majority defeatced every measure of transportation reform at the bidding of its masters, the corporations. It enaected jobs dircetly increasing the public burdens by miliions. ltfailedtomeet the urgent question of assessment’ and taxation reform. It re tused to demand of the State a feasible and enforceable Excise law. It left the farmers 6f New York, where the action of the Governor placed tihem, at the mercy of the oledmargarine ring. 1t struck hands for political greed with the abettors of disease and death in the metropolis. 1t prolenged the session of the Legislature far into thé summer at an agZregate expense of $3,000,000 to the people. It became, in a fractional struggle of placemen, the participant in scandals and crimes which brought dishonor and disgrace upon the good name of our State. When the Republican Legislature adjourned the people rejoiced as if delivered from 8 pestilence, and the officers of the law woré obliged to begin the work of prosecuting for Dbriberies and perjuriés committed by corrupt leaders of ihat party, while plying their vocation in the Cn%itol of the State. We are in favor of such reform by Legisiative enactment as well .as by administrative action in the Civil Service of thc country as will substitute for the present periodical scramble for spoils a wise system of appoint‘ment and promotion, by which the incumben¢y of subordinate otii¢ersshall bs regulated by law and depend only upon capacity and character, and demand. that no asscesments shall be levied upon public officers for political purposes. : e The public welfare demands that the various questions relating to chartered monopolies and methods of trangsportation should be met and decided, and we are in favor of the adoption of measures to reatrict the growing power oi monopoiies. They sbhould be subjectio the supervision of Commissioners established by public authority. All unjust discrimination in the transportation of passengers and merchandise should be prohibited.- The charges of corporations, which have taken the property of private citizens for public use, should be: limited to the ¢ st of service with reasonable proiit, instead of mercenany exactions *of all the traflic.will bear.” 5

We approve of the unanimous action of the Democratic members of the Legisiature in providing for early subméssion tothe pecople of the amendment to the Constitution in favor of free canals. The Democratic party, now and always unalterably opposed to the centralization of power‘in either State or Federal Governments, hereby requests its representatives in the Legislature to promote and make efiective the ameadment to the Constitution which shall extead the principles and powers of local self-government to the cities of the State. iy ‘ To therecord of the Democracy of New York we point with confidence. We challenge comparisons of its record with that furnished by the factions which were once the Republican party of this State. To the candidates of this Convention we pledge a hearty support, and we confidently submit our action 3s the representatives of free Democrac‘v to the good people of this Commonwealth™or their verdict at the polls.

Grant’s Assault on the Dead President.

Grant’s comparative opinion of Garfield and Arthur’ was not only in bad taste and false inits insinuations against the dead President, but it was a deliberate defiance of a teverential sentiment which pervades ail paities and demands a decent deference from public men. The name of Gartield has been enshrined until it stands for good and pure in publiclife. If Grantthinks that sentiment is false or the judgment wrong it is common deceucy to hold his peace. There was no call for criticism of his public acts, and the motives which prompted appointments Grant regards as indicating the bold€st ingratitude. Grant is a singular blunderer. His obstinacy makes him aimost. at the very grave of Garfield insist upon defending Conkling by denouncing Garfield's action as ingratitude when the entire country. except a few Stalwarts, has accepted his ouster of Conkling’s friends as not only right but absolutely demanded. If he dares to re«{pen the contest and put the questions between Garfield and Conkling again at issue around the grave of the Ilate President. it is only living reputations that will suffer. It would have been prudence as well as decency ior Grantto have remembered that the Stalwart spoilshunters made the assassination possible by their unmannerly and outrageous fight over the spoils” upon the courtesy of the Senate. ‘The moral responsibility of that act may not rest upon any man of them, but it does clearly rest upon the system ‘upheld by them.. The publi¢ has been exceedingly lenient and just, considering the execitement and indignation. If Grant, by his criticism of the dead President, shall bring the matter up for discussion e may bring ‘about a closer inquiry and a trial of that spoils system as to its responsibility for the death of the President. lln that case injustice may bz done. An indignant public may hold not only the. spoils system but those: who have fought for its maintenance responsible for the crime it clearly caused. It does not become General Grant, “or any Stalwart, to open his mouth about the dead President. To the Grant cabal the public has been exceedingly lenient. In rebuking the evident injustice in charging them with responsibility for the assassination the public has been more than just; it has even forborne to hold them to that vesponsibility for the maintenance of the spoils system which they clearly ought to bear. If they folishly reopen the question they wi: suffer severely for their folly. This country is not in a mood to hear a word of censure of its martyred Presiden: from General Grantqr any of hiscabal. Silence, absolute, reyerential silence, as to all that is burjtd in that grave will well beco General Grant and his miserable faction. Praise from that quarter has a hollow ring, and censure the American people will not endure. Good taste, if Grant had ever possessed it, would have prescribed, ' in any case, at least confinement. within the rule of.nil nisi bonum. The rule is doubly to be adhered to here, where the ‘American people have solemnly made up their minds that nothing but what is good can be- truthinliy said. General Graut may think otherwise, but he will not say so with impunity.—Nashvilic wdmeriean..: o o 0 0t sy
