Om* AVeck of llrpiihlicanisin In the i.c'4lire IIe*ulU In but Mu ill Amount of Conti Mention of I>«*»noi*ral ic I.o.uler» — Feti .sketches of Member* ami An.lifting Stories. SiHM-ial ('orrespniuleiM e. Lsthanapolis, Jan. 13.—Uinco my last letter we have had nearly a week of ualary drawing among tlie legislators, and little else. Thursday the members worked an hour or two in completing organization according to cau'us plans and parceling out minor places. Friday they did little more than listen to the excellent message from Governor Matthews. Saturday and Buuday they rested. Monday they assisted in the inauguration of Governor Mount, and Tuesday they did log rolling in connection with the night's caucus on senator. It doesn’t take long to figure out howlittle the people got for their mou, y during the first few days. That the house majority is afraid of the very able Democratic minority has been demonstrated by its unfair adoption of an ironclad cloture rule, which prevents appeal from the decisions of the speaker except upon a two-thirds vote. Tin plan is to throttle nearly half of the representatives beeauso they come from Democratic constituents. ❖ 4 ♦ “Who will be the Democratic leaders in tlie assembly?” is a question that is interesting politicians at present. It is conceded that tho minority of the assembly is without a single exception composed of as able a body of men as ever sat in tho minority. The minority of the house has in its membership such stable men as L. U. Dow ney of Gosport, chairman of the caucus; the Honorable John li. East of Bloomington; Attorney Eichhoru of Bluff ton and John Feist of Yorkville. The latter is an aged man who advocated tho free coinage of silver back in those days when it was almost worth a man's reputation to do so. Ho is regarded as a typical silver man of the Holman school. Then there is “Tom” Mann of Graysville, a tall man with a flowing beard, who lias been a figure in politics fur a long time; Taylor Record, an influential farmer of New Harmony; Moses Remington of Brownsville, who proved such a good representative before that he was sent hack, and Albert Schoonover of Attica, a bright young man whoso father, Hou. J. E. Schoonover, has been prominent in politics for a long time. Other shining lights in the house are Bellamy Sutton of Shelbj ville, an ex-railroad man; Allen Swope the caucus nominee for speaker; Peter W allrath, a Gorman editor of Logans port, whom everybody likqs and who has the reputation of being one of tho biggest-hearted men in the assembly; Adam Wise of Plymouth, and Solomon Wiener, of Whitley county. The lat ter is a Jew who went to South Whit ley several years ago a poor hoy and by economy and fairdealing succeeded in amassing riches. In the senate are Mr. Sweeney of Jasper, a holdover senator who is noted for his hail-fellow-well-met qualities; Senator Horner of Brazil, author of the Indiana digest; W. H. Kusbunm of Auburn, who l\ is devbtcd long years of service to the silver cause; Senator Stroup, the bright young mint from Shelbyvillo, and Senator Bobilya, who was in the iiou.su last term and who promises to take rank as the Lord Chesterfield of the senate. And “there are others''- many of them. M * h The youngest member of the general assembly is Charles E. Henderson, a bright young lawyer of'Bloomfield. On account of his youth, probably more than for any other reason, he was made permanent secretary of the Republican caucus. Mr. Henderson is hut 25 and has had an interesting career. Young Henderson was horn in 1S71 at St. Paul, Ind , nnd at l year of ago his residence was changed to Bloomfield. He lived there until l s H(l, when he went to Oregon and began a six years’ course in the University of Oregon, which ho completed, and then went in June, 1893, to Chicago to attend the world’s fair. IL had been ns poor financially as Job’s turkey was in flesh and it was a puzzle to him to determine how lie was to sec the fair without money. He finally hit upon the plan of pushing one of the chairs around the grounds. In this wav he got to see tho entire fair, completing a iMtst graduate course which, while not ot the regulation kind and with none of the furbelows of aristocracy accompanying it, was at least full of instruction. He was known during this time as “No. 1029,” and he now laughingly relates that it was a genuine joy to him to get hack lus name at the close of the fair. Ho wont at once to Bloomfield, where he taught school and made money enough to take him through Ann Arbor law school. He graduated there in 1805 and took up tlie practice of law at Bloomfield at once. He defeated five candidates for the nomination for representative at tho primary and won a triumph in the election with tlie two other parties fused against him. He made 39 speeches during tlie campaign. In his personal appearance he is an Adonis, being over six feet tall, straight as an arrow and well proportioned. He was married on Sept. 30 last to Miss Margaret Cavins, the accomplished daughter of Colonel Aden Caving, a prominent lawyer of Bloomfield. His friends predict much for him in the fu-

ture. ❖ ❖

One of the amusing occurrences of the past week happened at the Denison. “Big Joe” Kealingof this city (who, by the way, is currently booked for the

Office of district attorney) looks enoutrh like Representative Nicholson to be easily mistaken as his bio'lier. Each towers so mtieh above the common herd of politicians in physical moa.-uve nent that they havi come to he known a-s the ‘twin giants of the lobbies.” Not all of the representatives know them attur*, and among the- ■ who did not (bnt who do now) is a doughty little representative from one of the out counties. Nicholson, as a matter of course, bears the reputation of despising liquor in all I forms as the ordinary person despises a strpent. On the evening in question the representative blew into the lohbj fresh from home On-of the first men he met was I-oiling. Reaching Lis hand out, he said: "How are you. Mr Nicholson?” Mr. Kealing. ever appreciative of a joke, gave the outstretched hand a generous shake, and said, in his deep, statesmanlike voice: “How are yon?” “It’s been a long time since I saw you.” continued the other. “Yes, it has,” returned Kealing. and then, without cracking a smile, he stepped a pa m in tlie direction of the barroom, adding: “Come on and lot's have a drink.” Tlie legislator n airly fainted and Healing turned the. laugh on him in groat style. The story leaked out and since then it has created a great deal of merriment among the members.

❖

That there is no mistaking the temper of the men who are nt the head of the Indiana bimetallic organization was demonstrated last Friday when such lenders as National Committeeman John G. Shanklin, Chairman Martin of the state committee, Allen W. Clark of Greensburg, president of tint Indiana league; John W. Kern, Hugh Dougherty, Samuel M. Ralston, O. J. Lotz and Judge McCabe mot in conference at the Grand hotel. It was a meeting the importance of which the people of tho state will realize more fully in the future than now Tlie whole burden of sentiment was to “organize and educate,” and a practical system of club organization was devised. Mr. Chirk still wears in the lapel of his coat a button labeled “Indiana, IB to 1,” and he firmly believes that the yt ar 1!K)0 will witness Indiana in tlie bimetallic column. He said to me: “While the corporations and trusts are holding monetary conferences for the avowed purpose of reforming a monetary system which was tho best on earth before the election, the wageearners and producers are also holding little monetary conferences of their own in the shops and on the farms, and the result will be known in 1900.” Tlie only colored member of the general assembly is Gabriel Jones of Marion county. He is also entitled to the distinction of being the fourth colored man to serve in the Indiana legislature, the others being Sitl Hinton, who was sent from Marion county in 18S1; James M. Townsend, elected from Wayne in 1885, and Mr Bassett, who represented Howard comity in 1893. It is not alone the fact that ho is a very black man that makes Gabriel one of the most conspicuous figures in the legislature. He lias a physique that would attract attention anywhere. He is the tallest member of the legislature. He weighs nearly 190 pounds and has an arm reach equal to that of Fitzsimmons. He wears a broad brimmed felt hat that adds to the conspicaonsness of his appearance. Gabriel Jones litis a voice of a deep baritone quality and a volume that recalls memories of the days when “Foghorn” Kelly used to make the legislative halls ring. He sits on the extreme left side of the house, in tho chti r occupied last term by Adams of Parke. He is 38 years old and lias been a school teacher, an internal revenue collector and is now a deputy county recorder. He was born n slave in Tennessee and waited on tables in order to make his way through the Indianapolis highschool, where he got his education. He has announced that he intends to lo >k closely after the interests of his people. He will father a bill enabling colored children to attend the same schools as white children. •> 4 4 It is a fact which lias escaped general attention that when Speaker Pettit wits sworn in last week all of the ex-speakers, without exception, who have served since the now statehou.se was built, were witnes: ■« of the anspicious event. They were Warren Sayre, who served in the legislature of 1887; Mason J. Niblack, who served in’89 and'91; James B. Cnrtis, speaker in '93, and Justus C. Adams, who wielded the gavel in 1895. There seems to be a fascination iilmiit the work of the legislature that is continually attracting the attention of ex-ofti-cials as well as ex-iiieinbers. 4 •:* Little Claudie Ewing, grandson of the ex-governor, a precious nnd precocious youth, who has been the sun. liglit of the executive home and office during Governor Matthews’ term, will be succeeded in the new condition of tilings by Everett Butler, Governor Mount’s grandson, who, with his pa rents, is now occupying tho Mount residence on the Shannoudale farm. Little Everett is to join the governor’s family later and will spend a good part of his time with his grandpapa. The governor had a long-distance telephone placed in his home before he left, so that he can talk when ho likes from his office in this city to the home at Shannondale. One of his first acts after coming here was to call up the home place in order to have a talk with little Everett. The latter knew his voice, and sent back several endearing messages. The governor tells a good story on little Everett. Just before he left home ho called the pet of the family to his knee and said: “Everett, I am going to leave today to be gone four long years. Aren’t yon sorry to see mo go?” v^uick as a flash the latter said: “Yes, grandpapa, I am sorry; but I know that when a man gets to he governor he has to go.” L. L. Ludlow.
