TERRE HAUTE, IND., NOV. 16, 1895

A JOKE that has about aa much point to it aa some of Bill Nye's latest eflueions, la the announcement that Senator Quay is a full-fledged candidate for the presi dency.

THE Armenian outrages continue abated, despite the protests of the great powers, and from the outlook the sultan will awake some fine morning acd find himself without a kingdom.

IT hasn't proved economical to buy plans for warships from other countries. The battle ship, Texan, built on plans purchased from England, has developed serious defects that will cost a great amount of money to remove. Our American made plans thus far have shown no such defects

THE same day tbat woman suffrage was defeated by an overwhelming ma In Massachusetts it was adopted in Utah, and when the latter territory beo„mes a state in a few weeks its constitution will guarantee full suffrage to the gentler sex—it being the third state that gives this powor to women, and the thirtieth of them in which they enjoy suffrage in a limited way.

THE inakersor wooden nutmegs would have a severe time of it in Germany. Two German manufacturers of brown paper cigars, steeped into tobacco juice, dried and sold as the genuine weed, were tried recently and sentenced to imprisonment for their deceit. About the only similar offense in cbis country that is punished at all is that of selling oleomargarine for butter, and convictions for that are few and far between.

VIOB PRESIDENT STEVENSON says Mr. Cleveland can have the nomination again If he wants it. Will a duck swim? All along the line since the elections the discussion is of Cleveland as the logical candidate. There is no one else and his party will finally Insist on him taking the race while he pretends to be reluctant to do so, and their demand on him will become more and more imperative aa the doubt increases or the election of a Democrat.

IT was an uulucky number of senators the Democrats had from the northern states in the last congress—thirteen* After the fourth d*y of March, 1897, from the present outlook there will be only half a dozen Democratic senators from northern states, New Jersey, New York, North Dakota, California and Indiana. With the two new senators from Utah it looks as if the Republicans had gained a control of the upper body of oongresa that it will require many years to overcome, as radical changes are not made there so frequently as in the house.

THI project of forming a new state, to be called Superior, out of portions of the states of Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan, does not seem to be destined to success. The legislatures of Wisconsin and Minnesota appointed commissioners to consider the project, but the Mlohlgan legislature refused to do so. The new state on the plan suggested would be irregular and grotohque in form, the most ugly shaped state in the union, and would not be adapted to profitable agriculture The success of the scheme is therefore altogether doubtful

MRS. COUGAR baa been defeated the second time in her libel suit against Morse, the eccentric Massachusetts congressman, who said she had taken money from both theold political parties. Mrs Gougar is everlasUngly talking about other people and doea not scruple to make outrageously reckless accusations •gainst public men and she onght to be willing to take a little of her own medicine once in a while without running into court for damages. Instead of this verdict in Massachusetts having a detereffeot on her she will be more vituperative than ever before, which is saying a good deal.

OvsR at IndUnapolis a man went into court and asked have an investigation made aa to his nanity that his property might be restored to bis own control. It was brought out in evidence that be bad served on two juries about the time he was thought to be inoane and while he was legally adjudged to be of unsound mind. Much is said about the jury system, pro and eon, but this Is one more evidence that the supposed MAfeguards thrown around the law to oxclude all but competent jurors from, the jury box ia not entirely a success. The trouble seems to be in getting men fltfor the duty to serve, notwithstanding there is a law requiring service. Again a man must be something of a dolt to be satisfactory to the lawyers on both sides. The questions put to him are such as either establish his unfitness for intelligent servloe or cause him to be peremptorily challenged by one aide or the

other. The fault about the aye tern, and It Is one not easily overcome, la that there la no provision for the exclusion of those who naturally are unfit and yet who are not to be claused aa Insane per* sons, and the name of the*e ia legion.

THAT IS rather advanoed ground on the liquor question taken by the Episcopal bishop, Doane, when he say a, talking of restrictions of the traffle, that "if the state let the whole matter alone and merely include in its criminal code certain offenses, drunkenness, selling liquor to miners, violation of the Lord's day, and the selling of l.quor in the immediate neighborhood of sohools and churches and polling plaoea, I believe the matter would regulate Itself by the law of supply and demand. There would be no more liquor saloons than the thirstof the neighborhood required, and there would be no temptation on the part of politicians to support them as plaoea in whioh they could secure influence, of to liquor dealers to establish them as oenters of political power." He thinks that the churoh and the tem^eranoe people are insecure so long as the state undertake* to exercise any speolal control over the traffio other than that which it exerciser over the sale of other things. He thinks that no more effort should be made to plaoe restrictions about the sale of liquor than are placed about the sale of bread and butter and beef. He thinks that this is the only way to take the liquor question out of politics. And to show that great minds differ on this important question, about the same time he was making this declaration a meeting of ohurch people was being held I'd De catur to further the effort to secure for Illinois the passage of a law similar to the Nicholson law of our own state.

At a meeting of the council Monday night John A. Cole, of Chicago, was selected as the engineer to prepare plans for the new belt sewer, his bond being fixed at $5,000. A proposition from a number of property owners, W. C. Buntin, J. A. Parker, A. C. Ford, W. H. Soale, A. Grimes and S. B. Davis, offering to furnish the services of Rudolph Hering, the famous sanitary engineer of New York, to supervise the plans for such a sewer provided the contract for making them should be given to George H. Simpson, was defeated, in favor of the Chicago man. The property owners guaranteed that the services of Hering would not cost the city to exceed |600. making the total cost for the plans $1,300, of which $700 would go to Simpson. The plan of giving the work to a Terre Haute man did not strike the majority of the council favorably, and so the work was given to an outsider, his price for the work being$1,200.

If you cannot eat hot baking powder biscuits, try a biscuit from "Imperial Prepared Patent flour." With this flour no baking powder is required and only half the usual amount of shortening and eggs, for any kind of pastry. Therefore it is the most economical flour that can be used, and is much more healthful. The Imperial prepared Graham flour has become very popular with all housekeepers.'* Your grocer sells twenty-five pound sack for eighty-five cents or twelve pound sack for forty-five.
