FOR GOVERNOR15 1872,

Washington C. Be Pauw,

OF FLOTD C'OCXTY.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 1, 1871.

The Two and a Half Per Cents. It is evident that we were expecting too much, when we asked the editor of the Indianapolis Sentinel to simply extend to us the ordinary courtesy which everywhere exists between the honorable members of the tripod and quill. He in sinuated that we had done that which was not right and proper to be done in relation to the Indiana two and a half per cent. State stocks, and asked us to explain. We did "explain," and gave such an exhibition of the facts of the case, that every reader must have seen at once, that in all our connection with this affair, we did nothing that was improper, or morally or legally wrong. As the Sentinel asked us for this explanation) in answer to a mean insinuation made by it against our honor and integ rity, we concluded our article by requesting the editor to copy it into the columns of the Sentinel, thus giving as much publicity to it, as to the insinuation against us.

The editor refuses to do this, but makes the following comments upon our article: The valiant editor of the Terre Haute GAZETTE, Colonel R. N. Hudson, rises to explain his administration as Agent ol State, his authorship of the law making provision for the redemption of the State stocks,

and,

anticipating the effect of such

a law, how he gobbled up all the State stocks that his means and credit would permit, and winding up by defying the "editor of the Indianapolis Sentinel, or the editor of any other paper, or any officer of this State or out of it, to bring one single cliargo against our (his) official conduct us Agent of Stato which was not right and proper, in good morals and in law."

We have never investigated Colonel Hudson's official conduct, and hence do not know whether he received interest upon the State's funds while in his hands, or used his official position in any way to put money in his pocket. Neither are we aware of Colonel Hudson's standard of "good morals." He claims to bo the male parent of the bill "to provide for the paymont of the State stocks." It may have boen "good morals" to have arranged that law so that the stocks paying two and a half per cent, interest should bo redeemed boforo thoso paying live per cent. The Col onel says "the State redeemed her stocks dollar for dollar, no more, no less," and he admits that as some body was to be benefitted, that he had just as good aright to bo the lucky individual as anyone else. Now will the gallant Colonel rise and explain whether the stocks ho purchased for the rise wore two and a hall" or five per cents

If the editor of the Sentinel "never investigated our onicial conduct," what excuse has he for copying into his paper articles meanly insinuating against that official conduct, and himself propounding questions inferring that we had done wrong in recommending measures to the action of the Legislature? We are fully conscious that the editor of the Sentinel is not familiar with our "standard of good morals," and we are equally in the dark as to what standard of morals the editor is familiar with but in order to give him all the informationxhe so persistently asks for, we will tell him that in 1865 three years after our time as Agent of State had expired we purchased some of both the tivfc#»ml two and a half cent. State stocks, and at the

per time of the passage of the bill re' ferred to, we heldboth. And further will Hay, that in our opinion there was not an honorable member of that Legislature, nor is there an honorable man in the State, but will say that the State of Indiana, after her debt had become due, should have given priority of redemption to that portiou of the debt which drew only two and a half per cent, per annum,to *hat which drew five per cent. In other words, it would have been wrong in "good morals" to have asked oneolass of creditors to oarry a debt which yielded them only half the rate of interest which another class received, for as long a period of time as those receiving double that rate of interest. This, however, was a question for the Legislature of IS60-6, and it thought it was right ft) give the stock drawing the lesser rate of interest the priority of payment, and this is the first time we have ever heard the "good morals" of that conclusion questioned.

If the editor of the Sentinel desires us to answer any more questions in this connection, we will do so willingly, but at the same time he must hold himself in readiness to as willingly and fairly auswer some little interrogations that we may see proper, at our leisure, to pro--pound to him

WK are glad to And the great editor of. the New York lYibune speaking out boldly as follows: "The monstrous outrage on law, humanity, and order, perpetrated by the Spanish Volunteers at Havana, will once more call the attention of the civilized world to the unhappy condition of Cuba. The volunteers have gradually gained possession of the island, and uow administer affairs by mob law with military machinery. Spain has virtually abdicated, and though the Captain-General madeashow of refusing to give up to the ruffians the students who had desecrated the grave of Gen. Castanon, he surrendered at a more urgent demand. It now stands on record that this brutal soldiery took from the civil authorities eight of these boy students, condemned them at the drum-head and put them summarily to death. This atrocious murder is more conspicuous than many that have preceded it, but is not a greater outrage. It ought to raise *n Inquiry among other uatious as the

of humanity. Civilization cannot on elamly while these lawless butchers rule Cuba with a bloody hand.

propriety of intervening in the interests the several counties, there to be invested look I f°r use of common schools, over

THE following Washington special to the Cincinnati Commercial is full of interest: 'The Government officials are in nowise alarmed at the speck of war which has been raised by the newspapers regarding the Havana affair. The fact that our Consul General at that port in a moment of great excitement in the city, in consequence of the riotous conduct of the volunteers, telegraphed the home department that we had no ships to protect the rights of citizens in case they were assaulted by the volunteers or citizens, was very natural under the circumstances. We have usually had a forceof navy vessels in that port, but it happlns at this time that there are none. Many are at San Domingo, and many at Key West. It happens at this time very strangely, as many think, that none are at Havana or Port-au-Prince, where, of all places, they have been most needed lately.

The sending of the monitor Terror across from Key West, and the promise of other ships, was what was to be expected, and the report that the President and Cabinet have been in very serious consultation over the affair, and that it might involve us in diplomatic difficulty with Spain, is simply sensational."

THE New York Sun puts the case as follows: "Mr. George Alfred Townsend says that a great deal of unnecessary fuss has been made about President Grant's son going to Europe. Mr. Townsend does not seem to be aware that in order to send his Son to Europe President Grant has deliberately broken the law of the land, which provides that 'no subaltern officer shall have any leave of absence until he shall have served at least two years with the company to which he may be attached.' The fact that a young man goes to Europe on a pleasure excursion is of little account but when the President of the United States deliberately breaks the law in order to confer upon his son a special favor which no other subaltern officer of the army would be allowed to receive, the matter ceases to be unimportant. If the ^President wilfully breaks the law, who can be required to obey it?"

THE spectacle of the chief officer of the first city of the United States occupying a felon's cell is rather extraordinary, but, under present aggravating circumstances, a refreshing one to contemplate. The order for the arrest of Mayor Hall was issued on Wednesday, and he will have to find bail in the sum of one million dollars, or to be locked up. About ten years of life locked up in Sing Sing, would be- justice to him. New York is after her official thieves, and we hope it will become a contagion, spreading all overthe country. If there ever was a time when the people should protect the taxes they pay into the treasury of both States and Nation, it is now.

SENATOR MORTON, while on his way to Washington, had his pocket picked by railroad thieves, on the cars, in Jersey City. The Senator was passing into the vestibule, when he was beset by the robbers, who pressed him so hard that, in his crippled condition, supported only by his two canes, he was nearly thrown from the train. He was uninjured except in pocket, which suffered a loss of over five hundred dollars.

A SENSATION IN COURT.

Attorney General Hanna on the War Path in the Supreme Court Room. When the case of Joseph K. Sharp et al vs. John C. Shoemaker et al., involving the distribution of the school fund among the counties, was called yester day in the Supreme Court, Attorney General Hanna appeared for the State, and asked the consent of the Judges, upon the submission of the case, to make a statement. Leave was granted^ when the Attorney General made the following startling remarks: "If the Court please, This is a most extraordinary cause, and involves subject matter of the most extraordinary character. It is a proceeding by injunction, to restrain the Auditor of State from making a distribution of the money belonging to the school fund among the various counties of the State, according to law. "That the Court may readily understand the object of a motion which I desire to make, I beg leaving to state the following facts: In 1867, the Legislature passed an act suspending the functions hitherto exercised by the Board of Sinking Fund Commissioners, and merging the duties of that Board in the Auditor of State. The Auditors was required by the law to take the fund thus entrusted to his custody, and retire the outstanding securities of the State, so that the State might owe the school fund, and not the foreign holders of her bonds. But when the Auditor had done what he could in this direction, and there was nothing more left for him to do with the rast fund s© lodged in his hands—and since the Legislature, by a most strange neglect, had made no provision for the investment of this money, it continued to How in upon him, until it became an enormous dead capital of no advantage to the State, the prey of private speculation and individual gain. In 1870 the Legislature pa.-sefl an act, requiring this fnml to be distributed among all the counties of the State, and there loaned out, on the best security, at 8 percent. per annum in advauce. Voluntary and interested parties procurred an injunction against such proposed distribution, so that this vast sum of money remains tied up to this day. "This ease is an appeal from the Court below, upon such a state of facts. It. is a war waged by banks, baukers and other money-changers, here and elsewhere, against the school children of the State. If this money can be distributed within ten days, it will yield the school fund something near fifty-six thousand dollars, as the amounts of the fund appoximates seven hundred thousand dollars, and as I said before, the rate of interest is fixed by law at eight per ceut. I have desired to say this much in the presence and hearing of the attorneys on the other side, to give them an opportunity if they desire it, to reply to mv accusations, aud resist my motion. *1 desire, therefore, now to follow the motion to submit the cause with the further motion to have it advanced upon the docket for immediate consideration."

The Attorney General then offered his motiou as follows: "Shoemaker et al. vs. Sharp et al. Comes uow the appellant, by B. W. Hanna, Attorney General, and moves the Court to so advance this cause upon the docket, that & speedy determination of the questions involved may be had, for this reason: That the late Legislature passed an act, approved February 24, 1870—Acta of 1S71, p. 3—requiring the

a half million of dollars of that branch of the school fund of the State, which, by neglect of the Legislature, has been permitted to accumulate in said Auditor's hands, and there remain as unproductive capital, and to be used for him by individual profit, and that said distribution has been restained by voluntary and interested parties, seeking to use said fond in their private interest. B. W. HANNA, "Attorney General."

Jucfce Worden, the Chief Justice, remarked that "the motion would betaken under advisement."—Indianapolis Sentinel, Nov. 30.

Our citizens are familiar with the claims pnt forth by certain of onr competitors to being the "Leading House," "The Great Headquarters," the "Chief Emporium." etc. Some go so far as to assert in so many words, that their sales are larger than any other Dry Goods house in the city.

WE PROPOSE TO TEST THE QUESTION!

We believe our sales, even in our store before it was enlarged, and when we were

badly crippled for room, far exceeded those of any single Dry Goods establishment in

town. Now, owing to the splendid addition made to our store, whioh gives us, in our

three floors and basement, much the largest Dry Goods and Carpet Establishment in

this section of the State, we have ample room lor doing an immense trade, and for

the accommodation of all our customers. .Our recent sales, we believe, are

Greater than those of Any Two Oilier Dry Ooods Houses

We propose to test the question by challenging any two of our competitors to com

COMPARE THEM THUS COMBINED WITH OURS,

Each lirm to make affidavit to the correctness of the amount of sales reported, and to

permit inspection of any or all of their books that the committee may desire to ex

amine in order to arrive at a correct decision.

We propose to show this community that in spite of the fact that every one of the

Dry Goods merchants of thiS city are combined against us, and in most instances do

not scruple to employ means, however unworthy, to injure our trade, we are still so

grandly supported in our warfare upon high prices by the people, that our sales have

increased SD rapidly as now to be, we believe, Greater than the Sales of any Two of our Competitors Combined

Now, gentlemen, walk up and "toe the piark," or else admit you DARE NOT make

the comparison of sales asked for. In the latter case do not let us hear anything more

about your "Leading Emporiums" find "Great Headquarters."

Our Grreat Opening Sale Continued!

For a few days longer we shall make no change in our prices. The rush since our

opening has been so great, that some of our regular customers have been unable to

get waited upon. We desire to give all a chance at these bargains, which have so

A big lot ol American Delaines at 12 l-2c. Other stores are charging just double that price for them. Magnificent stock of New Striped Shawls at $3, $4, and $5.
