TERRE HAUTE, IND., AUG-5, 1893.

EXPLANATORY..

The men who assume control of a newspaper already established are placed at a certain disadvantage with those who start anew one, being deprived of that inestimable privilege of declaring that their paper comes to "fill a long felt want." The Mail, under its new management, cannot make such a claim, for the Want ceased to exist when this news paper came into existence, and for nearly a quarter of a century it has been an established favorite, welcomed into almost every household in our city. The hope of its new proprietors is that the paper may be so conducted that this welcome will never be withdrawn, but that with the coming of every year It will be found more strongly entrenched In the good graces of its friends and

closely followed, that of being

independent of politics, spicy, gossipy, |yff^ "and filled with good reading matter that will Interest every member of the families it is intended to reach, from the oldest to the youngest. It is too much, psrhaps, to presume to be able to improve on the most excellent manner in which The Mall has always been cons|§ ducted, but if this be possible, no effort '.f^wlll be spared to Accomplish it.

the many kind words that have

gaTbeen uttered, publioly and privately, & and the good wishes expressed for the continued prosperity of The Mail, its new owners are grateful. If they can hope to obtain the high place in the «steem of the public held by the just «nd good man whose name is inseparably connected with the history of The k'fl'. Mail—if they can make it as popular, as interesting, as it has been since his labors on it ceased—then they will feel •that they have been successful. *gfppr -•v-.i1 ..

THR delegates to the stiver convention Chicago, this week, could not have ^been altogether in the financial condition they professed, for they paid $200 a Iday for the use of Central Music Hall i|When it was found that the ball orlgfinally selected would not accommodate the crowd. But they paid it under prot.

THE directors of the World *s Fttr, realising that the exhibition is half jver, are said to be at their wits end, to letermlne how to bring about the financial success that was looked for. They «hould go about it as any sensible buai--jtggaoM man would do—reduce expense aa as possible, and ad vertlse—and adjvertise something, too, besides the ?bickerings that are constantly under headway there.

be hbped that out of the rnbbtah will be evolved measures that will restore confidence to a badly-scared people. Confidence is all we need—there is plenty of money in the country, and with con fidenoe it will soon reappear in circulation. Congress in its wisdom can bring back that feelllng, and woe unto it if it does not. W

FBABCB having succeeded in bluffing poor Siam into the terms of her ultimatum, has increased her original claims, which will no doubt be acceded to. Then Great Britain will step in and make her claims, and will get her, as a reward for not interfering with France— and Siam will have to smile and look as pleasant as possible. Diplomats who are looking for a vigorous foreign policy, will find striking examples of it in that case.

THE failure of the Indianapolis National bank gives evidence uf bringing a good deal of rottenness to the surface. It seems that the officers and employes borrowed from it far beyond their ability to repay, and it is alleged that of over one million dollars of loans carried by the bank and classed as assets, scarcely |50,000 can be called safe. If these charges be true, the penitentiary is yawning for some of the bank's negligent officials.

A PARIS dispatch gives an intimation that the angust Bering sea tribunal is deciding against this country on all the points at issue, and that a decision may be expected within the next two weeks. The dispatch Is sent to the London Pall Mall Gazette, by its Paris correspondent, and is no doubt colored for the occasion. The correspondent probably knows as little about the seoret actions of the oonrt as we do here, and it is to be hoped is off in his guesses.

THB magic of a name cut very little figure in the prize fight at Robey, last Monday night, when "Young Corbett," a protege of the champion, received a severe drubbing at the hands of -one Paddy Smith, and notwithstanding the fact that the champion himself was at the ringside as counsellor and adviser of bis namesake. Apropos of this fight, it is about time for Governor Matthews to makte his semi-occasional bluff about suppressing these fights and thus "preserving the good name and dignity of the state." The only way to suppress is to suppress.

GOVJERNOR MOKINIJB? is no longer to have the "Jr." attached to his name, since the death of his father, and the Republicans of Ohio will vote for him this fall ss plain William McEinley. He was elected, however, as the "jr." and will have to so sign his name during this term. Several prominent Democrats who have been aspiring to the Demooratio nomination against him have withdrawn, and it" now looks like Lawrence T. Neal, the author of the tariff plank in the last Demooratio platform would be McKinley'8 opponent With these two eminent exponents of the tariff issues of the two parties as rival oandidaties, it is not likely that the voters of Ohio oan have any misunderstanding of the issue. Ohio, however, is a protection state, when the issue is clearly defined, and McKinley is reasonably sure of reelection. He has made not only a good, but a popular Governor, and his manly conduct during his finanolal troubles has made him many friends.

JUDGE STKIN, of the Cook county Superior cou rt, has fined the World's Fair directors and other offisials directly responsible, in various sums ranging from $100 to $1,000, for disobeying his order to keep the fair open on Sunday. It would require a Philadelphia lawyer—and a very shrewd one, too—to keep traok of the decisions and counter-decisions that have been made regarding Sunday open lug. What with legal contests, fist tights, displays of personal feeling, and petty jealousies, of whioh even great men are sometimes guilty, the fair is carrying a load that would swamp any thing except Chicago. Last Saturday, at a banquet given to some big guns who were guests of the national commission, Major Handy, one of the department heads, was called on to respond to a toast that had been assigned to the director general, who was absent. One of the big national commissioners, who is doubtless a small man in his own community, objected because, forsooth, Handy is not a member of the commission, and

not only by men, bat by women and children also. It is read on Sandajb when people have time to read, and*by every person in the house. It is read at a time when they like to talk over with each other what they have been reading about. It is read thoroughly, advertisements and all, and the advertisements suggest purchases that will have to be made the coming week and the mau and his wife, and his girls and his btfys talk of where the things wanted can best be obtained, and the advertisements in "The Mail" are, to a large extent, their guide in the formation of the plans they make. The advertiser who neglects a paper like the Saturday Evening Mali is not wise. .-

A xtJMBKR of western Republicans, who have. for years been calling the Democrats tools of the British manufacturers and money loaners, Democrats who have been styling the Republicans robbers and thieves, and the third party people, who under different names, have railed against both Republicans and Democrats, as "money-bugs," "aristocrats," etc., assembled in Chicago, this week, to discuss the silver question from a common standpoint. There was, of course, a generous display of wlerdj western oratory, of which the following by Colorado's governor is a fair specimen: "Who is Grover Cleveland? Arid who is Benjamin Harrison? And who are their supporters in Wall street and in Chicago that they dare assume to drive into poverty and exile a half million of American freemen? The most dangerous tyranny is that enforced under the forms of law." The platform adopted declares in favor of the repeal of all legislation demonetizing silver and restraining coinage, asserts that the only remedy for our present financial troubles is to open the mints of the world to gold and silver on the ratio of 16 to 1, and protests against the repeal of the Sherman law unless a free coinage aot takes its place. The convention adjourned after a committee had been appointed to present to oongress the dele-] gates' views of the only way to secure relief from the.present depression.. /j $ KIND WORDS.

A. C. Duddleston and Fred Piepenbrlnk have bought the Terre Haute Mail., Will H. Duncan, who was editor, will, retire, as will Ed Westfall, who has managed the paper since bis father's death. Messrs. Duddleston and Plepenbrink are experleuced newspaper men, which generally means success.

THK shrewd advertiser—the man who expects to get the beat returns lor the money he puts into newspapers—doesn't refrain from advertising on account of the cry of "hard times" and "scarcity of money.** He knows that when times are hard, and the masses of the people are necessarily curtailing their expenditures, that they are more oareful where they spend their money. They watch the newspapers more carefully then, If possible, than ever, and familiarise themselves with the inducements ofind by those who advertise. The wideawake merchant advertises judiciously at ail times, but when there is but little money spending be looks after his newspaper more closely in the effort to get lite share of what business there ia. In this connection it is proper to remark that for many kinds of advertising ths Saturday Evening Mall la decidedly one of the very bast mediums in Terr* Haute. It is read by almost everybody In the city who reads at all, and by a large number of country readers. It ia

rietors, Messrs. Duddleston and Plepenare well and favorably known In this city. Terre Haute journal.

The Journal made the first mention of the change in the management of The Saturday Evening Mail, which took plaoe to-day. Messrs. A. C. Duddleston and Fred Piepenbrink took possession to day, and Mr. E. P. Westfall, formerly proprietor, retires. Mr. Will H. Duncan has severed his connection as editor and will temporarily be employed making tax-duplicates In the auditor's office. He has not yet made any definite plans as to the future. The new proprietors of The Mall, Messrs. Duddleston A Piepenbrink, are universally liked and have had experience in the newspaper business. We wish them the best of

Terre Haute Express. The change in the management of the Saturday Evening Mail, whioh takes place to-day, Is an important event, as would be anything affecting this popular weekly journal. Under the proprietorship ofr Its founder, Mr. O. J. Smith, and of his successor, the late Mr. P. S. Westfall, the Mall had its own original and pleasing personality which no others could fully reproduce, butE. P. Westfalfc has been very successful in covering the field of weekly journalism and sustaining the dignity and excellence of one of the best weekly papers in the country. Mr. W. H. Duncan, as its editor, has done some of the best work be has given, to journalism In the many years he has devoted to it. The Mall is transferred as an excellent property to the popular gentlemen who take charge today. It goes without saying that Mr. LonDuddleston and Mr. Fred Piepenbrink will maintain the the Saturday Evening Mall at its best standard and as papers necessarily grow and improve with the progress of times, it Is safe to predict that the Mail well keep np with the procession in rejuvenescent vigor. Mr. Duddleston is, we are happy to believe, like Mr. Pott, of the Eatansville Gazette, "bine," that is "true bine."

The following is an essay in the Mayfield, Ky., monitor by one of the towirirtg p&oocious youngsters: "Any girl that will let one boy kiss her will let any other one that wants to. So with a drunk* ard—after he takes his first drink he is sure to take his seoond. The other day there were two young people, about 12 or 18 years of age they were what people call sweethearts, and were having a nice time in an innocent way, until the boy Intruded on their bliss by asking her to let him kiss her. She consented, and to-day any boy that wants to can kiss her. Girts, dont let any boy kiss yon. If my girl would let me kiss her I would not have her any more.**

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building np the constitution and assisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers, that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of Testimonials. Address,
