A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

Hubsckiitiox P&ICK, 12.00 YEAK-

The latest piece of news is that Tammany has deserted Hill. The reason for this lies in the fact that if Tammany knows Itself, and it thinks it does, it wants to be on the winning side. The representatives of the greatest political organization in the world being very rrntlh alivo themselves do not propose to go to Chicago and boom a political corpse, especially that of the late gov-ernor-senator and would-be presidential candidate, David B. Ilill. It is true that Tammany has no love for Cleveland, but it Is evidently putting itself in shape to come In and assent to bis nomination when it is clear that he has large majority of the delegates to the convention. Tammany rarely gets left in the race for tho spoils, and if Cleveland promises to satisfy its demauds, as he doubtless will, there is no doubt that it will see its way clear to give him a hearty support. At any rate Hill Is out of the race, and it now looks as though he will not even be able to dictate tho course of his state in tho convention, although the delegates wero creatures of his creation.

MAKING NEW STATES.

There are now two bills before the senate providing for tho admission to the is of at os it or if New Mexico aud Arizona. The one for the admission of the first named passed the house by a vote of 107 to 3, and the otbor went through by a vote of 174 to 12. Both of the territories are Democra tic by rellablo majorities of Bnffloient margin to warrant the belief that change In their political complexion is not oue of tho possibilities of tho near future.

It muBt be admitted that practical politics has had much to do with the ad mission of new states of late years Nevada with only 45,671 population entitled to tho same representation In the Senate of the United States as New York with a population of 5,977,853, and one representative in tho lower house which requires a population of 170,000 In other portions of the country. The last congress admitted Wyoming with population of (10,705, while New Mexico with a population of 153,61)3, and Ari zona, with 5U,G20 population, were left out In tho cold.

But politics had very little to do with the refusal of tho last congress to admit Arizona and New Mexico as states. In New Mexico tho principal population is Mexican, and the Mexicans of tho United States coin prise the worst portion of Its people. Thoy are inferior In every respect to tho Amoriean they are shiftless, Inxy, teachorous aiul Ignorant they are wedded to the church, and are bit terly opposed to tho public schools Add to those tho fact that they are under the control of the padrones, who vote them as they please, and it is not to bo wondered at that the last congress refused itstatphnod, Tho same objections apply to Arizona, with the additional one that It has a large Mormon popula tiou who want all the good places that are going and generally succeed in getting them, Tho truth of the matter Hthat it would be tho worst possible kind of poor politics for any party to admit either of these territories under existing circumstances. They are about two hundred years behind the times, aud when they commence to live in the nineteenth century it will be plenty titue enough to talk of admitting them to the rank of statehood.

Memorial day was observed by th« Knights of Pythias of this portion of the state by a grand celebration in Brasil last Tuesday afternoon under the auspices of Brazil Lodge No. 30, and Croasdale Division, No. S9, Uniform Rank. Excursion rates had been cured on all railroads entering the town, and & large number attended from every direction. The Uniform Rank K. of P. of Indianapolis and Terre Haute were present and participated In the services. The parade was a magnificent one. Three tableau*, "Pythias at the Block,*' ••Good Samaritan" and a "Knight Defending a Woman," were prominent features of the parade. At the fair ground Mayor McCullougb made the welcoming addrwa, after which speeches were made by Gen. James K. Qarnahan, of Indianapolis Re** J. M. Green, of Crawfonlsrllle, and Judge J. C. Suit, past grand chancellor, of (Yankfort, Ind.

WHO WILL IT BE?

The Democrats will hold their national convention in Chicago next Tuesday, and it would not be surprising if they complete their business and adjourn on the same day. At the present time it looks very much as though Cleveland will have things all his own way. Apparently he has been making no effort to obtain the nomination, but it has been steadily coming his way for several months. Evidently Hill hasn't been in it for some time, if be was ever in it at all. He started out with' a vim which threatened to sweep everything before it, but he bad an attack of mouth trouble, so often fatal to men of small caliber, which carried him to his political grave with a rapidity which surprised his enemies and paralyzed his friends.

FEAST OF MUSIC. 1

-s. GRANDEST DISPLAY OF MUSICAL IN STRUMENTS EVER SEEN HERE.

An Elegant Room Tastefully Decorated With Flowers and Kichly Furnished With the Finest Assortment or Pianos and Organs Ever Seen In this Section.

To any person who can appreciate a spacious room, handsomely papered and frescoed, with high ceilings, beautifully ciecorated with all the blooming plants and flowers of the season, and made rich in general appearance

by a

tasteful ar

rangement of the handsomest display of pianos and organs ever offered to the people of this city, the opening of Emil Wulschner & Son's music house last Thursday afternoon and evening was a grand success, and an event long to be remembered in musical circles in this vicinity. Reception hours had been ar ranged for from 2 till 6 p. m., and from 7 till 10 p. m.

general invitation had

been txtended through the papers, and it seemed as though every person in town attended. Emil Wulschner, the senior member of the firm, was present from Indianapolis and assisted in the entertainment of the guests, to each of whom was given a handsome souvenir in the shape of some rare flower or piece of music. During the afternoon there was a constant stream of visitors, and in the evening it was a crowd during the continuance of the reception. The proprietor, Emil Wulschner, his popular manager, Fred Paige, W. H. Paige, who has been prominent figure in musical circles here for more than twenty years, with their corps of able assistants were all on hand to make the occasion as agreeable as possible to their guests, and that they succeeded admirably is the verdict of all who were present.

In entering the establishment the first object which attracted the attention was a handsome plush case Regal upright piano in the window to the right, the first instrument of the kind over brought here, while in the window to the left was placed a line oak case Palace organ surrounded by a large assortment of small musical instruments Once inside the door the visitor found himself In a room twonty-five feet wide by one hundred and forty-two in depth, with a very high ceiling, handsomely papered and docorated, and lighted by half a dozen handsome chandeliers—in every respect the largest room and best adapted to the business in the city. In front of the doer and a short distance from it was placed a handsome Knabe grand piano, next to it a Miller ma hogany grand aud then a Miller ebonIzed parlor grand. Surrounding these were upright pianos arrauged in groups, of the Miller. Knabe, Yose & Sons and Star make, all superb instruments, and comprising by far the largest and best display ever oflafed to the people of Terre Haute. There waa also a fine assortment of the famous Palace organs, including one with a double bank pedal base, suitable for church or practice purposes. Each piano was draped with a handsome plush cape, and many of them were decorated with handsome cut flowers. In the corners, and in fact every portion of the room where they could be seen to advantage were potted plants in bloom, roses, lilies and ferns, arranged by the skillful hand of John G. Heinl. In the rear of the room the Riuggold orchestra was stationed, and during the evening discoursed sweet music in its usual excellent style. The Coates College quartette gave some fine selections of instrumental music, as did also Miss Yeni Richardson. Taken as a whole and in all Its details the reception was a grand success, thoroughly enjoyed by all who attended, and a credit to tho enterprising firm that projected and carried it out so well.

The firm of Emil Wulchner fe Son is one of the best known, in fact the best known and most prominent in its line, in the state of Indiana. Mr. Wulsctner, the senior member, is a German by birth, and has been engaged in the business in Itidianapolis for a quarter of a century. He is a gentleman of fine musical taste and splendid education. From a small beginning his business has steadily.increased, until now it is the largest in the state, aud possibly in the west. The junior member of the firm is Alexander Stewart, a son of the late Col. Robert R, Stewart, of this city, one of the bravest cavalry officers which this state furnish ed during the war. He is a young man of good business qualifications, and is a valuable addition to the company. Owing to the steady increase in their business the firm has been compelled from time to time to open branch houses, and they have them in Louisville, Ky., Richmond, Ind., and this city, in addition to which they have agencies in every* town of any importance in the state. Their house here is in the nature of an innovation, being the largest venture of the kind ever attempted in Western Indiana* Nothing like it has ever been essayed here before. Probably no firm in Indiana his more commodious quarters than its elegant three story building on the best part of Slain street, and certainly none has a larger, better or more carefully selected stock. In securing Fred Paige as his manager Mr. Wulschner has also displayed rare good taste in getting the right man in the proper place. Mr. Paige, though young In years, is old in experience and brings with him a thorough business training in this particular line, which he'has made his life work in this connection it can also be said thai he is gentlemanly in his bearing, affitble, courteous to ail and accommodating to his customer*. In his father, W. H. Paige, who is principal salesman, and will to a certain extent have charge of the business, he ha* an able assistant. The elder Paige certainly seed* no ,n»

traduction to the people of Terre Haute. He had been in business among them for more than twenty years, and has soltf them more pianos than any other man in town moreover, where he is well known he is well liked, and in his neyr position will sustain his well-earned popularity. The salesmen are Clay Hedges, who is well known to our people, John Hardesty and Ben Porter. £-i

The firm bring with them an excellent reputation, which they have sustained in several portions of the state for twenty years. They have the capital and the stock with which' to do the business, and they ask a share of the patronage. Their business will not be confined to the retail trade, as they expect to do a large jobbing business through agencies which will soon be established in all the surrounding towns. The new house is one of the most valuable acquisitions which our city has had for some time, and its business must necessarily draw much from the surrounding territory it should receive a liberal support from the people of Terre Haute, and doubtless will receive it. -f
