FRIDAY, MARCH 22,1895. , Congress was a grand success as compared with the Indiana legislature. The Roby disgrace is not to be compared to that brought upon the state by the republican legislature. County school superlntendants will hereafter be elected in September. This Is one of the laws enacted by the legislature and passed over the veto of the governor. When the Nicholson law goes into effect there is a probability that uinetenths of the saloons in Indiana will close their doors. But in their stead twill be opened “barrel houses,” where ?vet goods will be sold by the quart. The case against Ex-Governor {Chase for complicity in the Zimri Pwlggius Greentown bank failure, rfras been dismissed in the Clihton circuit court. All other cases have freeu dismissed against thedefendants.

The basement of the state eapitol must haye become a famous resort as {e evidenced from the closing days of the legislature. Cain’s bottle had a jgreat influence in swelling up the musoles of the average republican legislators. The republican legislature reduced the tax levy for the people’s common schools for the next year 2)£ cents., to 11 cents on the $100, and fixed a tax on the people for the benefit of the well-to-do folks’ colleges at Bloomington, Lafayette and' Terre Haute of % cents on each $100. Not much reduction of taxation for the dotnmou people in that, as, unless larger docal levies are made, the terms of common schools will be shortened, while the professors of the rich men’s schools will live in clover at the public expense.—Jasper Courier. That great reform body that met at Indianapolis for 60 days was not so much of a reform after all. At the beginning of the session $100,000 was appropriated for the expenses of the members. It now turns out that there are clerks holding orders for over $5000 and there is not a cent left with which to pay them. It has been the most extravlgant session ever held in the state. They started Out and cut down the number of employes but before the session was half over the number was largely increased. All committee clerks had type-writers and attendants. Oh what a reform.

If you have a tale of woe choke it pfl, step on it and ram It back into the skeleton closet and nail the door. The world loves you in sunshine and /despises you in tears. Sometimes the temptation is very great to tell one's sorrows. It seems as if they might he cast aside iti that way; but you Hi of your sorrow to your particular triend, and it goes to.her particular friend, and to the particular friend pf some body else, and in time it is the gossip ot the town, and you are justly to blame for not keeping vonr affairs to yourself. The world isn’t goxious to bear of people’s troubles; ft has only time to jeer at them and wonder why instead of talking about pleasant things it is bored with stories gf people’s sufferings.

W*r» Thai Boby. The Indianapolis Sun says editorially: The scene in the lower house of' the legislature, Monday night, was the moat disgraceful event in the history of the state. This ia true because it was participated in by tnen who were law makers and not lawbreakers.; It was a climax of a session of petty bickering, of delay, of neglect, of contemptible trickery. The Sun has endeavored to learn the facts and state them impartially and fairly. From this information it appears that the republicans were wholly to blame for the shameful fracas. The sum and substance of the matter was that the republicans, by means of .broth force, sought to prevent Gov. Matthews mmt sending a veto message 16 the housiL which lie had a perfect right to do./ It ia probably true that the executive held the I message later than usual in order to preveut the house trom disposing of it, but that does not furuisb au excuse for the brutal assault that was made upon Secretary King by the stalwart republicans who dogged his steps. Indiana has suffered much at the hands of thugs and lawloss persons. Outside the state we are looked upon as a community of fighters and brawlers, and we are spoken of in terms of derision and ridicule. Have we any right to expect anything but such contempt when our local statesman—our law-makers—induge in a melee that would shame even a border tow u? This is a matter that concerns the whole state and every ciiizeu of It. Its importance reaches bevond party and partisans. Every man, woman and child witlhiu the commonwealth, who believes in law and order, and who looks for dignity and decency in the halls of legislation has been disgraced by these brawlers who, for a time, were unfortunately permitted to pose as statesmen. All who were engaged in It should be held to a strict account They should never again be permitted to introduce rowdyism and brutality into a chamber where drains and seif respect should hold sway. Shamo upon them.

LKUISL.ATIVE EXPENSES, They Kxceent the Appropriation By Several Thoueand Dollars. The $100,000 appropriated for the expenses of the General Assembly, is exhausted. William B. Bnrford, state printer, will have to wait two years for about $6,000 due him. He has received. $6,00Q on account Rince the session began. How' many warrants or unpaid bills are out is not known at this time. The employes of the two houses, tearing the appropriation might be exhausted, all- drew their® money on the last day of the session. It Is thought that a few of the members took their warrants home with them, expecting to use them in payment of taxes. The warrants are still good, but they can^not be cashed until money is appropriated for the purpose. It has been the custom for mauy years to appropriate $105,000 for the expenses of the session. The Senate at the beginning of the^recent session passed a bill appropriating the usual amount. The house took the ground thai a record for economy QUght to be made, and reduced the amount to $100,000. The senate concurred in the ammendment. The accounts of the two houses have not been Classified yet, and it is not possible to detaH the expenses over the democratic legislature of 1893. The bill of the sfate. priuler will amount to about $12,000 tor the recent session. It was about the same amount two years ago. There were an Unusual number of investigations during the recent session, and large sumlwwero allowed in attorney's fees, stenographers' tees and traveling expenses. Almost the usual amount of extra pay was voted by the two houses during the last two weeks of the session. —Indianapolis News.

Marvelous Re. nits. From a letter written by Rev. J. Gunderman, Dimondale, Micb., we were permitted to make this extract; ‘*1 have no hesitation in recomending Dr. King’s New Disoovery, as the results were almost marvelous in the case of my wife. While 1 was pastor of the Baptist ohurcb at River Junction she'was brought down with Pneumouia succeeding lagrippe.

■ Legislative Cnib(iIi, The Rob? lobbyists ere much chagrined si the manner In which the legislators of Indiana disgraced the state.—Washington Advertiser. The dosing scenes of the late legislature was au outrage on the fair name ot our state and should forever damn those who were the cause of this shame and disgrace.—Tel! City News. The fact that the doors iu the gallery of the Indiana house of representatives were nailed looks like a conspiracy had been formed to go at it hammer and nails.—Indianapolis News. The bills passed by the General Assembly cost the taxpayers of Indiana $1,000 apiece. One hundred bills were made law. The session cost that many thousand dollars.—Washington Gazette. The exodus of the legislators from the state house, in its physical features, bore a close resemblance to the departure of the cbitdren of Israel after the spoiling of the Egyptians.— Indianapolis Sentinel. Did the late legislature have a license to run k saloon in the basement of the state house or was it a barrel house. The whiskey was there and iu any quality that was wanted.—Decatur Democrat.

When the character of the men who composed the majority in the late Indiana legislature is taken into doe consideration, is it to be wondered at that no laws tending to elevate and improve the morals of our state could be passed.—Portland Suu. It appears that the man who had whiskey in the basement of the state house had a special pull on the repub* Mean senators. He was the only democrat in office whom the said republican legislators did, not attempt to legislate out of office.—Hunting* burg News. v Time has finally come to the rescue of the people by adjourning the republican mob legislature of Indiana. They may “thank God” that the end has come to the present embecile and “bulldozing” mob, which persistently ignored the demands of the people.— Rock port Democrat. / The late republican legislature thought best not to tamper with the “infamous'*’ democratic school-book law. In spite of their abuse of thaf measure during the past four years they clearly foresaw that lho people would stand no tinkering with such a wholesome and beneficial law.—Bluffton Banner. The cheap boast of tu’penuy economy by the late disgraceful legislature has had the pins kicked from under it* Not only did this legislature spend more money than its democratic predecessors, but it ran away home tp escape arrest for disorderly conduct; and uegJected to pay over $5000 of its bills. That is the sort of “reform"’ legislature the late belligerent assem* j bly of Indiaua was.—Kokomo Dispatch. A more useless body than the legisflaturejust passed never posed as law makers before. The republican party is ashamed of it from beginning ti> end. Not a single platform pledge was redeemed. Not a single piece of legislation of general importance or benefit was enacted. Not a labor bill became a law. Not an insurance bill,' of which many valuable ones were introduced, passed. More evidence ot corruption neYer existed. It is a lasting disgrace to the republican party. —Washington Democrat.

“.Perhaps you would uot think so, but -a very large proportion of diseases in New York, comes from carelessness about catching cold,” says Dr, Edson. “It is such a simple thing and so common that yery few people, unless it is a case of pneumonia, pay any attention to a cold. New York is one of the healthiest places on the Atlaulio coast and yet there are a great many cases of catarrh and consumption which have their origin in inis neglect of the simple precaution of every day life. The most sensible advice is, when you have one get rid of it as soon as possible. By all means do not deglect it ” Dr. Edson does not tell how to cure a cold but we will.

BEEFS PBOTECTION, i CONFESSION OF THE UNFAIRNESS OF THE M’KINLEY TARIFF. It now teems probable that Thomas B. Reed or some other Republican leader suspected of being opposed to McKinleyism will be the next presidential nomi - \ nee of the monopoly party. Reed is said to represent that elemen t which wants moderate protection, or, as! some of the Maine congressman’s ad* i mirers define it, "a tariff which will; exactly measure the difference between j American and European wages. ” This, of ooune, is a confession that the Republican party has heretofore been legislating profits into the pockets of manufacturers instead of wages to work - ingmen. It is, moreover, a confession which will involve protectionists in J more serious complications should they i attempt to make their "moderate" pollicy a permanent one. They will have some difficulty in explaining, for instance, how the differ- j ence in wages will go to employees and not continue to stick to the hands of employers. There is no special law or j virtue in a moderate tariff which compels the protected olass to be more generous to wageworkers than when the y are operating under a high tariff. The manufacturers are the first recip- j tents of the swag, and if that swag be a : "moderate" amount it is less likely to; be passed on to workingmen than if it be a large amount such as McKinley favors taking from consumers. In the latter case they might be shamed into; voluntarily dividing a part of the plnn-1 der with the employees, but where the1 amount ia small the protectees would hold on to it and look for more These moderate protectionists should j also explain their attempt arbitrarily to I fix a limit to American wages. If a 26 per cent tariff raises wages, will not 80 j or 100 per oent duties make them higher?' At what point does a tariff cease to enhance the pay of employee and begin to augment the profits of employer? If "protection" booms business and makes workingmen prosperous, Americans will never be satisfied with the miserable amount which measures the nominal difference between wages paid cm two continents.

And what is that difference? I*rotectiunists of the Reed type refus to consider the relative purchasing po wer of a dollar in America and of a dollar in England. They also carefully eliminate from discussion file well knowgreater efficiency of American labor over that of Europe, a factor in itself su lidient to aocount for any real differer ue there may be in wages paid. The average American meebi :aio bears the same relation to a European worker as does a modern machine to cne out of data The improved machin usually costs more than the old one. but it is always more economical to its owner, just as the higher paid Americ in is less expensive to the man hiring dim than is the European to his employer. Farmers now use self bine ing harvesters to do the work which was once performed by the old fashioned cradle and manual labor. If congress were called upon to pay to each self binder purchaser a bonus representing the difference in cost between the ole and new instruments, it would be doing for farmers what for 80 years it has been doing for manufacturers. Far uers who use modem machinery ask for no “protection*’ against their less fortunate neighbors who straggle along with antiquated tools. They know tk at if government pap should be doled out at all it ought to be given to the men who use cheap machines and cheap la 5or. And yet a majority of American farmers continue to believe with a religious seal that rioh manufacturers using improved machines (American workingmen) ought to beproteoted against; their European rivals using alow ar and less effective machines (“pauper” laborers). Tom Reed’s candidacy in 1896 will mean the emphasis of this wages lie McKinley has not been averse to admitting that some of the ta iff profits should go to manufacturers. In fact* he invited the mill bosses to Washington to write the bill which bore ibis name Presumably Reed, if elected, wou ld invite laboring men in proposed protected industries to come to the capital and write the tariff schedules. That is what workingmen ought to insist upon doing should “moderate” protection win in 1896. But they should also make certain that the tariff profits are delivered to them direct- Manufacturers should not be permitted to handle the money because, according to the Reed doctrine, they have no right to it. The people from whom these profits would be filched will have nothing to do with such deals, of course, except to bear the robbery meekly and call it patriotism. —Chicago Herald.
