The Indianapolis Dispatch, a populist paper, which Leroy pleton, of Binton county, started three months ago, has discontinued publication. Hard times is the Cause , given. The management did not obtain the support they expected. The Indianapolis Joio'naZ has been sued for alleged libel by _ Julra _ Marlowe, the actress, with damages placed at S2s,ooo—The Journal printed a brief dramatic criticism of Mrs. Marlowe in which it was intimated that she imposed upon the public by hiring cheap and inferior actors to support her in her stage appearances.

Ex-Queen Lil, of Hawaii, is now on trial for “misprison of treason,” which means having previous knowledge of treason but not assenting to it, There is no danger of her being hanged or beheaded. In fact that would be a sad thing, were it to happen. She has a great future before her as a dime museum attraction, and it would be to ) bad to spoil her future usefulness in that line, as decapitation or hanging certainly would.

The rivalry between the different Ghicago papers as to which can send out the largest Sunday edition, has resulted in great blanket sheets of 32 to 48 pages, every week, aud sometimes even larger. And what acres of rubbish their combined efforts do result, in, during the course of a year. Verily! there is more good sensible, elevating but entertaining reading in one Sunday’s issue of the Indianapolis Journal than the average Chicago Sunday paper sends out in six months.

Those persona..,svha .are cali-y predicting tli'vt this cGumb’y is on- the eve <»: a'bloody revolution like that which gave France the reign of terror seem not to be able to distiiignisl) the difference between the conditions then and now. Then the privileged classes practically owned the wealth of theuMlntry, Now, and in this, country, 3,000,000 are living on farms which they own, representing a population of’more than 15g 000,000. In the larger villages and cities there are nearly 3,000,’000 families which own their homes. By the last report 4,781,605 persons have 81,712,769,126 in savings banks, and nearly a million people are interested in over 8600 000,000 in building and loan association shares, while 9,000,000 peo} le are interested in about 812, 000,000,000 of life insurance, either payable at death or at the expiration of a given number of years. And, not the least in importance, nearly a million persons are United States pensioners, to whom 8140,000,000 are payable annually. This list of persons interested in permanency could be extended, even if the higher intelligence and sentiment of patriotism in this country should not be taken into the account, so that it would be absurd to share the fears of the purveyors of calamity and horror.—lndianapolis Journal.

We have yet to hear of any Republican who endorses the action of the legislative caucus,.on Wednesday evening of last week, in voting to take the appointing power of the trustees and managers of the state benevolent and reforma- * tory institutions out of the hands of the Governor and placing it in the hands of a board composed of the Governor, Secretary of State and Auditor of State. action is hardly consistent with the pledges made by the Republican party in its State plattorms for the last dozen years or more. The party has iterated and reiterated in favor of eliminating politic* entirely from the control of

all-our state institutions and placing them on a non partisan" basis. 7 Thia means, of course, the rules of civil service and the applicatibn of the merit system and The substitution of business metuodsfor political methods. How our Senators and Representatives will explain their action and makes it consist with the promises made in numerous State platforms remains to be seen.

Some dyspeptic and envious individual, who ■ signs himself “Nemo” jumps onto Judge Wiley, in the Pilot. Nemo evidently wasn’t invited to the party the Judge gave, a while back, and has it in for the Judge, for that reason . The only point in Nemo’s article worth noticing is the argument that the judge ought not to have so much court by special judges because, as Nemo says, the state pays the regular judge’s but the county haS to pay the judges. Now, whether Nemo makes this statement through ignorance or a desire to mislead, we do not know, but we do know that the statement is not true. The pay of the special judges is advanced by the county, but the amount is charged up to and paid back by the state. The law gives to the judges themselves the responsiblity of deciding when it is proper to employ special judges, and it is altogether probable that Judge Wiley knows better when they are needed than does this conceited but evidently badly informed Nemo.

In the congressional apportionment bill which seems most likely to become a law, Jasper county will still be in the Tenth district but the district will scarcely know itself, so greatly is it changed from its former make up. In this new bill it is composed of Tippecanoe, Warren, Benton, White, Jasper, Newton, Lake, Porter and LaPorte. ”The counties taken off are, : Carroll, Cass, Pulaski and Fulton. Those added on are Tippecanoe, Warren, Benton and LaPorte, Carroll goes to the Ninth) Cass to the Eleventh, and Fulton a:d Pulaski to the Thirteenth. This bill divides the state with the utmost fairness, politically, and - numerically the division is entirely equitable. The average population of the thirteen congressional districts of the state is 168,694. The largest district made by this bill has only 8,410 above this average, and the smallest district has only 7,787 below it. Seven of the districts are within 2000 of r the average. In this respect of equality of population, as also in fairness politically, this proposed apportionment is as much better than the present democratic gerrymander, as St. Prefer is better than Satan.

The first step toward free schoolbooks for the school children of the’State was taken last Saturday when Mr. Adams, of Parke county, chairman of the House committee on education, offered a bill providing that the system be adopted. It was referred to his committee, which has already given the subject much attention. The bill offered was prepared by a committee appointed by the joint legislative committee of the General Assembly on this subject, consisting of Justin R. Study, of Richmond, and Super intendent Goss, of the Indianapolis public schools. The bill, if it becomes a law, will cut down the cost of schoolbooks in a large measure. If provides for the furnishing of free text books to all pupils in the public schools of the State, and allows the school boards and school trustees in cities to select their own books. In the country districts township officers are to select the books, upon approval of the State Board of Education. The state board is to have a complete set of schoolbooks offered for sale to the public schools of the State on file, and the publishers are required to file a sworn statement showing that the price at which they offer the books is the lowost in the

United States. The contracts with TKUThdiana'Schdblb'odk Company' are not interferred with, .but provision is made in the bill to prevent Democratic township trustees from overloading the State with these books ip the event the bill promises to become a law. Where a pupil destroys a book and refuses to replace it, he is barred from ,t)ie further benefits of the act until the value of the book is made good. jji

AnEditor-PerftinnsMarmge Rites. The injuries sustained by Editor French last week in the attack upon him on account of an article in the Reporter were but slight, but on Monday evening of this week he was guilty of an affair in Brookston that makes bim, a bachelor of 40 shudder to contemplate. He perform* d the ceremonies, as justice of the peace, in uniting in the holy bonds of matrimony, Joseph P. Stewart and Miss Vesta Stewart, both of that place. He says it was his first jobs in that line and he was worse scared than when assaulted the same day last week. Some say that he fainted in attempting to kiss the bride. Three More Accidents on the Three I. North Judson News. Monday night at Wheatfield, because of a broken rail a three I freight hauling 17 cars piled itself in a mass, but none of the trainmen were injured to speak of.

The Three I passenger train east Sunday morning, had a little fun with itself at Hamlet, or near there. A broken wheel caused the ladies’ coach to leave the track and fall in the ditch “butter side down.” No one hurt, fortunately.

Jim Maher, the well known engineer of Conuctor Lankford’s train on the Three I, was the victim of an accident Tuesday morning, which may prove fata!. When about midway between Missell and Budd, west of Kankakee, the right side rod of the engine broke and came dashing into the cab. Maher attempted to jump, but was struck on forehead and one arm in so doing. The injured arm is the result of being hit with the broken rod. but just how the two inch cut in th” forehead was inflicted, is not understood. Ten different makes of Sewing ma chines, At Steward’s.

CUB'DATIVTWn DV ITVCTTDVI ‘ ~~~ A Great Mistake. A recent discovery Is that headache, dizziness, dullness; confusion of the' mind, etc- are due to derangement of the nerve centers which supply the brain with nerva force; that indigestion, dyspepsia, neuralgia, wind in stomach, etc., arise from the derangement of the nerve centers supplying these organs with nerve fluid or force. This is likewise true of many diseases of the heart and lungs. The nerve systemislike a telegraph system, as will be seen by the accompanying cut.

D„ LL.B., the W Er highly celebrated specialist and -Student of nervous diseases, andauthot of many noted treatises on the latter subject, long since realized the truth of the first statement, and his Restorative Nervine is prepared on that principle. Its success in curing all diseases arising from derangement of the nervous system is wonderful, as the thousands of unsolicited testimonials in possession of the company manufacturing the remedy amply prove.
