Tt will be recalled that the so-called non-partisan police force was freely used by the same lawyer to help htm got a fee fqem the Chicago A Eastern Illinois company when they had trouble at Lyford, the Terre Haute polioomen being sent out of this county to work for the 00mpauy. Some une has said to me that calling attention to these thlugs serves no purpose other than to bring money to the boss, not lawyers' fgos exactly, because other corporations or Individuals needing thoservices of a Tammany official will understand that the boss must tlrst be employed.

The Fair Association Is to make "complete In every respect," as the Gazette writer who wrote about "a fatal killing" would say, the trotting meeting next month by having a free-for-all trot in winch the rivals of the land are to take part. Directum, Alix, Pixley, Fantasy and, perhaps, Kremlin will be entered. This race with the 2:10 trot will bring to the meeting about all of the fast ones the people have come to look upon as "world twaters."

The Hrst public evidence of the feeling of rivalry, not to say jealousy, bo twee 11 the Terr© Haute Trotting association and the Vigo Agricultural society was this week in the way of a"banger" advertisement put out by the Trotting association. It was a pretty lithograph announcing the association's meeting In September, but the wording of the announcement was after the manner of the show agents to tell the people to '•wait for the big ahow." Words were underscored to make a reflection on the fair's meeting In August That there .has been a good deal of jealousy was known to persons acquainted with the facts but the men managing the respective associations are aware ot their high standingin the community and bad been curbing their personal animosities, at least* to the extent of preventing any public display of them.

MAN ABOUT TOWN.

A writer in The Mail of last Saturday referred to the fact that there was a strong hint of Democratic politics in the manner in which the officials displayed singular delay in thecaseof the fatal train wrecking at Fontanet, and thereby let some guilty man in a strong Democratic township escape. Nothing could better illustrate the fact tffat duty to tie people and duty to the party are one and the same thing in the eyes of some officials. In their view if they are best serving the party they are best serving the people, but this conduct is apt to be inconsistent, as is in evidence in this Fontanet case. Six weeks ago the superintendent of the Big Four road called upon the sheriff for protection at Foutanet, where striking miners had captured trains and were preventing train crews from getting coal for their engines at the coaling station there. Hours went by and the sheriff could not be heard from. Everyone was cracking jokes about the probability that he was hunting up the boss to be told what be shauld do. When he appeared at the Sixth street depot with a message already written to be sent to the superintendent, everyone took it for granted that he had found the boss. The message was in effect that no violation of the law had come within his personal knowledge, and that he stood ready to perform his duty when warrants had been sworn out for the arrest of the violators of the law. Now mark the change. The Big Four secured a local lawyer to assist in prosecuting the perpetrators of the Fontanet wreck. When the seizure of trains took place ten days ago the sheriff hurried to Fontanet with deputies. In all ab^ fifty" deputies were sworn In for the o5nslon. That the murderers of Engineer Moehrman and Fireman Fleck have been permitted to. escape is another story and, as The Mail writer intimates, lets in a little daylight on the peculiar facility the Tammany crowd has for causing official and professional duty to be secondary to the obligation to make votes lor the Democratic tlckot.

respect from the Debs case in Chicago. The Taylor contempt case was one in which the judge sought to impose punishment for expressions he considered to be of contempt for himself as a judge. Debs is accused of contempt of an order of the court, of acts that were in violation of the interstate commerce law. Mr. Debs can say publicly, by printing it in a newspaper or by speech in any place except in the judge's court room, that Judge Woods is an "erminded scoundrel," "the tool of corporations" or whatever he may please to say and [Judge Woods can take no action other than that any private citizen can take— bring a suit for libel. There is a United

States statute prohibiting the yanking up of a person for contempt il the judge takes umbrage at what is said about him or the way he performs his duty. It was thought best to have snch a statute for fear that by some blunder a man I might get on the federal bench who would be small enough to try to force the public into the belief that he is as big as his position by punishing anyone who spoke to the contrary. There is no such law in Indiana governing our state courts, but the Supreme court in the

Taylor contempt case very plainly said that the judge had recourse in a civil suit for damages, If he had been libelled, and that the newspaper articles instead of obstructing the progress of justice were in aid of it.

Man About Town has heard men whose opinion in such matters is held in high regard express themselves as agreeing with him that some of our federal judges seem to have mistaken their attitude before the people and the strikers in the recent troubles. They have "rushed" into the newspapers to issue a sort of proclamation, commanding.the peace. Judge Baker over at Indianapolis goos farther. He delivers himself of lectures to wage earners as if he were especially empowered to administer advice or rebuke which must be heeded else he may yank up the fellow who chooses to receive his lectures for^what they are worth regardless of who delivers them. On the bench he mattes publio addresses. He tells the men how he had worked for fifty cents a day and yet became a great judge. It is this sort of rot that makes a Debs revolution possible. The old sing song story of the lives of the Pullmans, theCarnegles and the rest of them, how thby went barefoot when boys and how they earned their first dollar, has lost Its Impressiveness as an object lesson. If all men could become as rich there might be something in tbe drivel, but every wage earner knows that be he as thrifty and industrious as he may, he cannot got to the top and what he wants Is a trifle more comfort down below. Every man also knows that millionaires did not get their millions by industry aloue. The legitimate profits of any business begun with that first dollar, would not make any man worth $000,000 if he lived three life times.

Debs is to address a publio meeting at the opera house and Man About Town predicts that he will boom his popularity at home to a remarkable degree. However unfair and wrong this strike has been he will make it appear to have been justified. The boycott of the second party, the railroads, admittedly unfair on all sides, he will show to have had nothing of* the natrre of a boycott in it but that the A. R. U. was simply defending itself from a conspired attack by the general managers. Above all he will again Impress his friends, and all of his hearers for that matter, that he is sincere and honest in this struggle.

We came mighty near witnessing an instance of •'railroading a man to prison" in the Holloway case. It isn't a difficult thing to do, provided you have the detectives, the lawyers, and then a newspaper to tell the public what great deeds the first named are doing. If public sentiment is demanding punishment for a crime the poor fellow is easily made the criminal, tbongh entirely innocent, sent to prison or, perhaps, hanged.

The cornerstone of the First Methodist church was laid last Sunday afternoon in the presence of an immense crowd. Rev. S. V. Leach, of Centenary, delivered tb$ principal address, while appropriate remarks were made by Rev. Isaac Dale, a former pastor of the church, and by Mayor Ross, Col. McLean, Col. R. W. Thompson, R. S. Tennant, the Revs K, V, Hunter of the Presbyterian, Morgan of the Christian, Connett of the United Brethren and C- 0. Oakey, representing the First Congregational. The copper box enclosed in the comer stone was filled with many papers and documents that will prove of interest to those who may be living when time's ravages shall have rendered necessary a now church to succeed the new First Methodist church building.

Every dollar you spend for a vehicle made outside of Terre Haute means that you take 90 cents out of the cash circulation of Terre Haute! It means more than that—viz.: that y»u deprive some vehicle mechanic of ninety cents on every dollar of this money, causing him to be out of a job one half of his time. If you are in business or if you own property in Terre Haute —does this affect you Is your business booming now? Is your property increasing in value now?

If not, bad you not better buy at home and keep your customers employed than to send your money to some other city and thus give employment to a like mechanic there, whil«* your customer is in need of work to enable him to buy olotbing, meat, shoes, etc., etc. You will be Interested and surprised at the magnitude of the plant of the Terre Haute Carriage and Buggy Co., and also to know that they are daily advertising Terre Haute by shipping their goods all over the United States, and now are reaching out for business in South

Gazette: W.I. Overstreet and family have returned from Spencer, where they have been for the past two weeks. A portion of the time Mr. Overstreet was at West Baden, where he fairly paralyzed the pleasure seekers by a display of all the newest novelties in dancing, learned by him last winter as a member of the Antique club.

Colonel Albert E. Joab, formerly of this city, now a resident of Tacoma, recently appeared In the United States court there as counsel for one of the Northern Paoific strikers, who was charged with contempt of court. The Tacoma papers printed the speech in full and pronounced it one of the most eloquent orations ever delivered in the United States court there.

The sad news was announced this week, that D. Graham Earle, once the city editor of the Daily Express, and a goofi one, but for many years an actor, had been committed to an asylum at Laporte, Ind. Earle is unbalanced in mind, and a few seasons ago, together with his former wife, Agatha Singleton, whom he deserted for a member of bis then company, was one of the most popular actors in the West. He was the author of the six-night stands and popular prices plan of traveling theatrical companies.

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. The Democratic township convention was held at the court house this morning, and the following ticket nominated:

Township Trustee—Charles Naylor. Assessor—Patrick O'Leary. Justices of the Peace—Frank H. Parsons, N.

B. Kennett, W. P. MoCarthy, Joe.

Lang. Constables—Henry Ehrenhardt, Sr., Thos. Campbell,Marshal P.

Wolfe, Abra­

ham Olinger. A very ludicrous feature of the convention was a vote of thanks tendered unanimously to the Express and Journal, the Republican papers, for announcing t'fce convention. The motion was made by Joseph Kuaz, and was intended as a slap at the Gazette, which was singularly and oppressively silent last night regarding both the township and county conventions, the latter of which meets this afternoon.

A NEW REPUBLICAN DAILY. W. W. Woodring, of the Peru, Ind., Journal, and Geo. B. Lock wood, of the Republican of the same city, who were here a week or so ago, prospecting for a location for a Republican daily, have decided on coming here. They will be here next week to take the initiatory steps in the enterprise. They expect to get out an eight page evening paper, and are said to have ample financial backing.

The two local divisions of the Uniform Rank, Terre Haute and Vigo, went over to Brazil on Tuesday to participate in the drill of the Seventh Regiment, to which they are attached. T.J.Griffith is colonel of the regiment, and R. P. Davis adjutant. It was the first time the regiment had drilled since Colonel Griffith, has been in command, and the work was altogether new to him. He acquitted himself nobly, however, and handled the regiment as easily as if drilling regiments was an everyday occupation with him. It is doubtful if there is a regiment in the Indiana Brigade with a oommander more proficient than he showed himself to be. At the copclusion of the battalion drill the new division, Vigo, under Captain Dan Faslg, went through a number of movements In a highly creditable manner, and Terre H&ute division gave an exhibition drill that occupied nearly an hour. The drill pleased the Brazil people verj muoh, and they were quite enthusiastic in its praise.

The new division of the Unnorm Rank, Vigo, was instituted Wednesday evening, by Col. T. J. Griffith, assisted by the officers and members of the old division. The officers of the new division are: Daniel Fasig, Captain Dr. H. C. Medcraft, Lieutenant Reuben Butz, Herald Geo. Wolfe, Reoorder W. W. Kaufman, Treasurer H. H. Poppendick, Guard JohnKadel,Sentinel. The oeremonles were followed by a banquet, at which short speeches were made by the officers and various members. The new division starts out under the most favorable auspices, its membership being A. 1, and its officers competent. It will not be long until Terre Haute can boast of having two of the best drilled divisions in the state.

Charles Williams, a tough character, living on north First street, was shot and Instantly killed Tuesday afternoon by Levi. Winkle, whom Williams had accused of undue intimaoy with his wife. The murder oocurred at the home of Frank Calloway, who is married to Williams' sister. Williams had not lived with his wife for two years, but became jealous whenever he heard of her belug in the company of other men. Williams was thirty-five years old and Winkle twenty-four. Winkle evaded the police, and has defied their best efforts to capture him, although he can return now that Coroner Mattox has announced that his investigation shows that the killing was in self defense.

Eugene V. Debs, accompanied by his wife, his brother, Theodore, and his sister, Mrs. Mallloux, returned from Chicago Thursday evening, and was met at the station by his aged father and mother and a number of friends. His parents have been completely prostrated by the worry for his welfare, and the joy of seeing him and their pleasure at his release from prison rendered the meeting very affecting. Mr. Debs will remain at home for several days, getting a much needed rest and straightening out work that has accumulated during his absence. He is announced to speak at the Opera House to-morrow night on "The Great Strike," and the house is sure to be packed.

The Populists held their county convention last Saturday afternoon, and nominated the following ticket:

Judge Superior Court—I. N. Pierce. Representatives—Theodore Walters and Samuel Jones.

Clerk—H. A. Damela. Treasurer—F. C. Heckelsberg. Auditor—L. H, Mahan. Recorder—Miller Green. Sheriff—John Ross, of Otter Creek. Coroner—Dr. H. H. Caldwell. Surveyor—A. E. Miller. Commissioners—First district, J. E. Woodruff Second district, John C. Hoffman.

The naming of a candidate for prosecutor was left to the county committee.

Harper's Weekly, of this week, contains a splendid portrait of Grand Master Frank P. Sargent, of the B. L. F. together with an interesting sketch of his life. The writer of the sketch was evidently posted for he says: "Mr. Sargent livesin Terre Haute, Indiana, where he holds the respect and confidence of all c)a6se» of people."
