THE roLLY of erecting buildings from ten to fourteen stories in height is becoming apparent in Chicago. Such departures from the path of safety ought to be prohibited by law . o

GEN. HARRISON has completed his inaugural address. We shall soon have an opportunity of reading how he proposes to manage the affairs of this great nation for the next four years. L :

Here is a tempest in a- teapol. Canada is in great distress, and .talking about going into bankruptey, because the ‘‘permanent militia service” has attained ‘whe growth of a minature standing army of 1,100 men.’’ No wonder we are afraid of Canada, in view of this revelation. ot

[ CHRISTIAN SCIENCE, so-called, gets cold comfort from the clergy at Cleveland, Ohio. The substance of their conjoined opinions is that the delusion is neither christian nor scientific and that whatever effect. it has upon people is the effect of imagination. It might be termed, applied speculative philosophy.

AN UNDERTAKER occupies a seat in the Pennsylvania Senate. He has a very grave manner, and he is fond of seeing that bills are’ buried with due solemnity. It is too bad that there are not more of his calling in the Indiana Legislature. There are a great many measures there which should be interred with skill and dispatch. o

Gov. ABBETT thinks Muncie, the central city of the Indiana gas belt, is likely toiattain a population of 50,000 within a few years. = Others, more sanguine, feel confident that in less than fifteen years Muncie will contain a population of one hundred thousand. Muncie is but a short distance south of Fort Wayne. It may be inferred that the bright prospects of ‘the former place are viewed with some degree of apprehension by the denizens of the Summit City. ; :

IT APPEARS from the discussion in the Houge of Representatives at Washington, last week, of the Smalls-El-liot. contested election case, that a percentage of negroes ‘in:the South are indifferent to politics and that a great many more vote the democratic ticket than has been supposed. 1t also appeared that the greatest intimidation practiced in the South was directed against the latter by members of their own race, because they voted the democratic ticket. These facts are respectfully commended to the Republfeans of the North, whose hearts have been bleeding for the poor African.

THE TABULATED! ELECTORAL VOTE, as counted in Congress on the 13th, shows 233 for Harrison and Morton, and 168 for Cleveland and Thurman. If the thirty-six votes of New York had been given to Cleveland the count would have stood: For Cleveland, 204; for Harrison, 197. New York defeated Cleveland. Yet, New York elected Gov. Hill by 20,000 votes and the whole democratic state ticket, including the Judge of the Court of Appeals. So New York state is still democratic. With David B. Hill as' the standard-

bearer of the Democracy in 1892, we can carry the country and restore democratic rule. Young Hickory has carried the Empire state three times, and can do it again in 1892,

Bisnor ARNETT tells his fellow negroes that the only way to obtain just and fair treatment is to deserve it by personal industry and morality, and the St. Louis Globe-Democrat applauds the sentiment. Senator Hoar proclaims substantially that negroes must remain in the background on account of personal character and. public sentiment. While the sentiment is in the

main founded upon common sense, the query' is nevertheless pertinent: - Why ,is it that the republican party draws the color line so sharply as soon as it gets into power and has a chance

to reward that element which® is its very life and hope? Where would the party leaders be if they were subjected to the test of personal character and morality? : i

SENATOR. SHERMAN scents republican defeat in Ohio next fall. In his letter to the Sherman club of Mansfield he recognizes the weakening effect upon a party of ‘‘the natural discontents that grow out of the inevitable disappointments for office and place”’ and admits that he sees “many signs of factional contests.”” In other words, the republican party is troubled with a horde of spoils-seekers and as there are not enough offices to appease the cravings of these place hunters, bitter quarrels have been engendered by greed. Therefore, the shrewd senator suspects that the kickers and sulkers will seal the doom of his partyin his state. Senator Sherman is not alone in his opinion. A change of less than 2 per cent. of last fall's vote will elect the democratic state ticket in Ohio. ;

‘ * A FINE RECORD. Senator Plumb, of Kansas, greatly - astonished his republican colleagues ~ one day last week by frankly and warmly praising the administration of ~ the navy department under Seeretary . Whitney. He was unsparing in his _ eritieism upon the old system of spend- ~ fng mil'fons upon millions in repairs

to old vessels, and iu praise of the new method of spending money for new ships. He commended Mr. Whitney’s course in earnest words, and pointed out that during the last four years a solid foundation had been made for «:the best nayy in the world,” while at the same time American. enterprise has been stimulated until now we could furnish in our own country everything going into the construction of first-class modern ships-of-war. It gave him pleasure, Mr. Plumb added, to speak thus.in the closing hours of ‘an administration which had done much at first that he had felt obliged to criticise. 'This is a manty and honorable acknowledgement of merit— a commendable example of giving unstinted creﬁt where credit is due, regardless of political considerations. Praise thus bestowed may hewilder politicians of the peanut order, but it is greatly appreciated by people who have some regard for truth and justice. i

FIGHTING OVER THE SPOILS.

The signs of the times indicate pretty plainly that our republican friends are going to have a high old time over the distribution of the spoils. Nowhere is this more plainly indicated than jin the state of Ohio. A superabundance of statesmen is a source of great | tribulation to the ‘‘grand old party”’ of that commonwealth. Gov. Foraker, especially, manifests a disposition to kick if things do noet go his way. On the 12th inst. it was announced that Senater Sherman had been selected to dispense Ohio’s patronage, and on that night a republican dnner to celebrate Lincoln’s birthday was. given in Columbus. The banqueters feasted long and merrily, and it was not till near four o’clock Wednesday morning that Gov. Foraker got on his feet. Then, says a dispatch from that city, he proceeded to make ‘‘a characteristic speech, during which he took occasion te score Senator Sherman by implication, He eulogized Gen. Alger as having taken his defeat at Chicago in good part. He then proceeded to score the defeated candidates who sulked, and had to be importuned to take the stump for Harrison, as being unworthy the confidence of the party and the fruits of the yietory.”’ He wound up by saying: *We want only such Republicans as will take their medicine.”” As nearly all the guests were anti-Sherman, the governor's remarks were loudly applauded. The republican papers omit even an abstract of the governors’s speech. oo

Here, the Albany Times says, we have an entrancing picture of republican harmony. The true inwardness of the republican situation is revealed. The old story of republican jealousy and enyy is told again at 4 o’clock in the morning. "As March 4 approaches, the inability of the patriots to restrain themselves becomes more marked. The times are solemn indeed. ~SENATOR VOORHEES SPEAKS Regarding the Action of {he Indiana Dem- ; ocratic Congressional Delegation on ; ) the Soft Conl Duty. J - U.S. SENATE, W ASHINGTON, Feb. 4;'89, " Hox. Jonn B. StoLe—My DeAg SIR: Please accept my thanks for copies of your excellent and able paper which have reached me. In view of the events of the past year 1 confess to some surprise that Judge Tur pie and I should be criticised for our vote in regard to the duty on coal. 'The Mills bill, as it is. known, was under discussion in the House of Represent atives four months and more as a democratic measure. The question of coal was carefully considered by the democratic committee on ways and means, and at one time the committee was strongly inclined to report coal on the free list, but finally, for reasons they deemed sufficient, determined not to do so. Diuiring the long debate which ensued 1 remember no movement in that direction, and when the bill passed it received the vote of every Democrat in the House except four or five. Mr. Mills, Mr. Carlisle, and every democratic member, including all my democratic colleagues in the House from Indiana, voted as Judge Turpie and I did, and I have never heard them assailed on that account. '

There was a duty of 75 cents a ton on coal when the Mills bill passed the House and Irecall no effort at that time on the part of anybody te put coal on the free list. And when in addition to this the St. Louis convention endorsed the Mills bill and we made our entire canvass on it, Judge Turpie and I did not feel ourselves ‘authorized to make a new departure and declare a new platform for the democratic party on five minutes’ notice, and necessarily without consultation.

But having thus shown that our ac” tion on coal was in strict harmony with the position of our party in Congress, at St. Louis, and in the canvasg in every state in the Union, still 1 ean ‘easily understand how impatient the }pub-lic mind is in regard to tariff taxation on any of the necessities of life. It is true that a duty on coal is of no consequence to those interested in coal in Indiana, the cost of transportation protecting it from all competition with }foreign coal,| [but the people have become 80 justly incensed against the ‘ bold and daring robberies of recent itariﬂ‘ legislation that the very name “of a tariff tax on any article necessary [fip human existence naturally arouses a spirit of strong resentment, and even of resistance. 1 confess that I deeply share this feeling myself, and so ous Will go farsher than T wil against the flagrant and yig mw aw%ﬁnﬁ%}g”wx

of laying tribute on every class of labor for the benefit of millionaires and monopolists. No one need suppose that I voted to leave the duty on coal because, as an original proposition, 1 would place one cent on it. My action was dictated by the action of my party, and by my respect for its authority. - This is the head and front of my offending, and I am yery willing to submit to the judgment of the just and fair-minded Democracy of Indiana. If I have made a mistake, it was made in common with the entire organization of the party, and without complaint or quarrel one with another, we can rectify and advance our lines hereafter.

With kindest regards, lam, as ever, your friend, _ D. W. VOORHEES.

A Miraculous Conversion.

A case of miraculous conversion is reported as“having occutred at- a revival service now in progress at the M. E. church, Fort Wayne. The convert was a youpg lady named Fisher, who regularly ‘attended the meetings for several evenings, and though she prayed earnestly to be saved, could not be made to realize that her sins were forgiven, and appeared to be in great anguish of mind in consequence. The Sentinel says: Saturdawa brother of the young lady, who li@s at Deecatur, was telegraphed for, and ‘in the evening Methodist Ministers Woolpert, Wilkinson, Cook, Cooper, Markley and Meredith were present to assist in conducting the services; and by prayer and a service of song to bring about that much desired result, the «wonversion of Miss Fisher.

After a brief and impressive scrmon, an opportunity was given to those who desired to come to the altar, when Miss Fisher and her brother went forward and the service of prayver and seng were begun. After pleading and prayer for a short time Miss Fisher entered into the trance state, in which condition she lay for nearly two hours.

~ When she became unconscious to all earthly surroundings her countenance wore a distressing look. This, after a time, disappeared and a peaceful and joyous one took its place upon her face, thus showing that the spirit of God had entered "her soul, that she had come from darkness into light. These changes were noticed by those surrounding her, and an opportunity was given all present to witness the glory of God as it shown forth on her countenance. After a lapse of fully one hour and a half she began tp show signs of returning life, first by lteeping tfime to the music of the organ, on which was being played soft strains, then she began to sing joyous songs of praise, in which it* was cléarly manifest that she was totally oblivious to all her surroundings. It was altogether one of the most inspiring scenes eyer witnessed, and made a lasting impression on all present. ‘

Joint Institnte.

The Joint Institute of Perry and Elkhart townships, which was held at the Kair View School house, in Perry township, was well attended by patrons of the district. Prof. W. B. VanGorder, our efficient county superintendant, was present and took charge of the institute.

The institute was opened 'by Roll Call. Response—Quotations from Whittier. Miss Cain then read a paper on Longfellow’s poems, which was very interesting. After which H. H. Decker treated ‘*‘lncentiyes to Study,”” in a broad and instructive manner. Miss Swank followed with an excellent paper on an Educational System to secure respect for common labor and wageworkers. 'l'he institute then adjourned, and a bountiful dinuer was served by the patrons of the district, and an enjoyable time was had. After noon, Mr. Keehn gave an excellent Class Drill in reading. Miss Probst followed by a review, “Walter Scott.”” ~ J. B. Smith then introduced the subject, Civil Government. This was followed by a recitation by Niss Nellie Norris. ‘lhe debate: Resolved, That Indiana should have a Compulsory Educational School Law, drew the institute into a liyely discussion, and for some time a lively time was had. Prof. VanGorder is an earnest worker and has done much hard work to better the condition of our schools. = The next and last institute of Perry township will be held at the Independence School House 1% mile north of Ligonier, Saturday March 2nd. Everybody is invited to attend and participate in the exereises. The fol'owing program has been arranged: ; o i ﬁoll Call—Response—Quotations from Long-ePglvlvx'nanship-—Allie Cass. = U. 8.

A Pointed Personal. | Mr. Andrew Ellison, of LaGrange county, gets rather a pointed personal l notice in last week’s Goshen Democrat. 1t is so unique that it won’t bear abbreviation, and as a matter of news is worth reprinting in extenso. Here it is: “Old Andy Ellison, of LaGrange, is probably the meanest man in that county. He is a Shylock, and the only friends he has are the ones that he holds mortgages against and are afraid to be anything but friends. 'He started a paper at LaGrange, the Sentinel, to get even with some of his enemies in print, and we are happy to say, has been losing-money ever since. The old skinflint might have paid us the little bill he owes for printing out of what he has lost on his paper.”’ ~ Btill Celebrating. ; 3 [Cromwell cor.

Post-Office Improvements.

Postmaster McDonald has just placed 150 Yale Lock Boxes, of the latest and most improved design, in the postoffice. In these boxes mail matter is perfectly secure, as each box has a patent lock differing from every other box, and can only be opened with its own key. Those renting a box must make a deposit of 50 cents for the key, which will be refunded when they give up the box. As it costs that sum to replace a key when lost, the government (not the postmaster) has adopted this rule, the necessity of which must be apparent to everyone. The boxes are very ornamental in front, the glass of each being neatly numbered, and surrounded by artistic brass work, with the handsomely embossed monogram “U. S, The improvement greatly adds to the neatness and at‘tractiveness of the office as well as the convenience of its patrons. In this latter respect the Ligonier post-office is now one of the best arranged in Northern Indiana and certainly will challenge comparison with any one of them. In fact, it must be a source of pleasure to the gentleman, whoever he is, who is dead sure that he will be appointed to the place just as soon as President Harrison gets comfortably seated, to know that he can step into an office so well arranged and neatly fitted up. :

An Interesting Birthday Event. Yorxk, InD., Feb. 18, 1889

Eprrcr or THE BANNER: On Wednesday of last week friends, to the number of thirty, gathered at the residence of Rev. John Rendal, of Elkhart township, and celebrated the fortieth anniversary of Mrs. Rendal’s birth. In the morning one .of Mrs. Rendal’s neighbors gave her a very pressing invitation to help her quilt. While she' was gone, the friends gathered, and after the dinner, which was an elaborate affair, comprising all the luxuries which the culinary art can preduce, was prepared, Mr. Gus Poppy went after Mrs. Rendal to come horne, as he had come to visit her and wanted something to eat. Imagine her surprise when, en arriying home, she found the friends all assembled and the table loaded. After greetings and well wishes were exchanged, the following presents were presented in a neat speech, by Rev. Thos Mayhorter:

Silyer cake stand, linen tablecloth and set of napkins, Mr. and Mrs. Haller; bible stand, Samtuel and Jake Haller; glass cake stand and jelly dish, Jennie Haller:; set of glass ware, Hally Haller; fruit dish, Nannie Haller; bread dish, Sarah Haller; glass caster, Mrs. Gus and Geo. Poppy: ﬂass water pitcher, Mr.. and Mrs. ayhorter; cream pitcher and bread plate, Mr. and Mrs. Renehan; celery stand, Mr. and Mrs. Hersh; rocking-chair, Mr. Rendal. :

After partaking of the repast, the remainder of the day was spent in conversation, interspersed with musie, ete. Take it all in all, a very enjoyable time was had, and all went home feeling it was good to have been there.

Whitecaps At Waterloo.

At Waterloo, last week a party of Whitecaps attempted to inflict personal chastisement upon a man named James Burke, who it appears was liying apart from his wife, and making his home at the house of a lady named Derthick. Mr. Burke got due notice of the Whitecaps’ intended visit and prepared to give them a very warm reception. After in vain trying to gain an entrance, they smashed all the windows and finally broke down the door and attempted to enter, when Burke fired upon the ¢crowd, seriously wounding one of the mob named Sim Barnhart, the ball entering the fleshy portion of Barnhart’s under jaw. The rest of the gang then took to their heels, and Burke had no further difficulty in holding the fort. The Press says: *‘We are not advised as to the names of the other members of the storming party, but as far-as we have been able to investigate the matter, it looks like a clear case of Satan rebuking sin.” . |

“Truly Good.”

The newspapers here have no wicked partners, and if anything wicked occurs about them, it is the fault of the untrained and inexperienced office cat. It is next to impossible to get an office cat that can invariably be relied on to be truly good.—LaPorte Argus. The compliment to the LaPorte newspapers, we suppose is all right, but the slander on that valuable animal, the ¢“office cat,”’ was entirely needless. Itis not impossible to get a truly good office cat. Our office cat can get away with more pie and make a great deal less of it, than the office boy. - Our cat is perfect, and in every way ‘‘truly good.”” :

A Goshen “Coincidence.’”’

Goshen Democrat: The Times says the most remarkable coincidence of similarity in personal appearance, between our fellow citizen, Mr. John W. Irwin, and portraits of General George Washington,is frequently commented upon. Really the resemblance, allowing of course the difference in mode of dress now and during Colenial times, is quite . marked, Just so; and we have known Mr. Irwin for 50 years, and do not believe he would tell a lie about his little hatchet any sooner than Mr. Washington would.

John Sage was found guilty at Marion, Ind., last Thursday, of murder in the first degree, and sentenced to the penitentiary for life. Sage seven years ago induced a woman named Eliza Cunningham, to drown her illegitimate child, and then he married her. The crime was discovered, and the woman arrested. - She assumed all responsibility for the crime and was sentenced to life imprisonment. On hearing, last September, that Sage had applied for a divorce, she exposed his complicity in the murder of the child, and his trial resulted as above stated. Now an effort is being made to get the woman pardoned, all the members of the jury that convicted her hLaving signed a petition in her behalf. '
