High license, law and order, tbe improrment of Main (trwt, economical) city goverment.
TODAY, is supposing to be the beginning of spring being vernal equinox.
VfuxK will the rafitropoiiUn board fulminate a tbird order to close the saloons. And, do these orders include the front door only?
Two oftnsiu ham been given the police superintendent to enforce the saloon laws. May the people expect another order to-morrow?
A GOOD way to learn if the saloons are closed in accordance with the police order will be for citizens to take little notes when passing on the streefs.

THS Indianapolis Sentinel made a bad reak typographically yesterday, Of course it was an oversight of the proof reader. It was made to say that the next U. 8. Senate would consist of 247 republicans and 39 Democrats. To mob the proof reader would be bad, but not too bad.

EX-«XHATOR I NO ALLS thinks the farmer's alliance is building stronger than many people give it credit for, and that it will be an Important factor in the presidential contest of next year. Mr Ingalls' prophecy may in part be born cf his experience with the alliance of Kan sas but nevertheless, if the alliance sucoteda in maintaining its present strength sod organisation, and decides to go into the field with Its own candidates, the opinion of the Kansas statesman will not be found to be altogether wrong. Of course, the alliance cannot electa president* but it might succeed in throwing the election into the bourn. But any speculation is more or less idle when remove*! so far from the contest. Many things can happen by the time notnin ations are mad#.
TH* Courier Journal maintains that tariff reform is the k»y to the presides Ual situation next year. It pictures a rosy path and nothing but daw ny oil lows, little work and big pay for labor, and a general ushering in of the mellen ium for all men if free trade is matte the issue, It ie the opinion of thinking men that we must all continue to labor and to wait As we sow so shall we reap, Fres fende or tariff will not cause every bush to produce gold or silver paper, bat whatever policy prevails men must continue to eat bread in the sweat of their brow—by some aort of labor. And free trade will only make the p«4h of labor mot* thorny. The ushering in of free trade eannot possibly have any other tendency than toward being* ing about lower wages for labor* When the soonses of labor are broken down or isjansd

A short time ago the Express that the saloons could not be cl there was no sufficient public senti to enforce the law, and it fought all efforts to create such a sentiment. But now it says that at "11 o'clock last night there was a very general observance of the order to close saloons at that hour. What caused the "very general observance?" It was not general by any means as numbers of people know. Tns Nuwa believes and the people believe that the order of the hoard was bom of its authors' position in thecourts and to lull the j»eople into gentle slumber until after the election this spring. When it is considered that the metropolitan police law was a demand of tbe liquor interest, that the liquor interest put up money, and plenty of it, to lobby the law through the legislature, and that it was put through that body by a gang of lobbj ists who had always before opposed the en forcement of the laws, both the state law and the King ordinance, and when it is further considered that the metropolitan law, thus put through the legislature, fa put into the hands of the lobbyists to enforce—we ask are the people green enough—is there anybody green and silly enough, to believe for a moment that the present spasmodic effort is genuine that it will be lasting and continuous. If there by such a person among the law and order people he is sadly mistaken and will learn of tbe fact later. The whole character of the contest the present condition of things, and the means and methods employed are amply sufficient to warrant the bells! that the ahowfng made by the polks* authorities and its chief is a mere feint, and will only last until the city election. By this showing, the wideopen element hope to silence the law and order people by making them believe that they are secure in their rights, aad that the laws will he enforced, until they have'secured the election of a council and a mayor who will stand on the wide* open platform this done, then good bye to the enforcement of the laws.

wages are reduced. ''Tariff reform" has no other meaning than free trade. To call it tariff reform is merely cloaking the real object. It is sugar catting a bitter pill as labor will find it to be, when the principle is put into practice-
LOOKS LIKE A JUGGLE.
Is it a jujqjle? Under the order granted yesterday by Judge McNutt, the metropolitan police board gave the chief of police an order to close the saloons at 11 o'clock p. m., and on Sunday. According to the Express of this morning the chief instructed the police to notify saloon-keepers that no liquor most be sold after 11 o'clock or before o'clock in the morning. In the chiefs instructions to the police as published in the Express, not a word of instruction is given with reference to the closing op of saloons on Sunday. Is this a juggle? If looks very much like it If not, why did the chief of the police neglect or refuse to include Sunday closing in his instructions? Did the board and the chief think they could pull the wool over the eyes of the people in this manner? It won't win, Mr. Meagher. The omission is too pellucid. How many more orders will it require to close th© saloons during illegal hours? Last Saturday evening an order was iaened,so re-
THE APPROPRIATIONS.
Congressman Cannon, of Illinois, has carefully prepared a statement showing the oppropriations made by the Fiftieth and the Fifty- firtt congress and the amounts are as follows: Tbe Fiftieth congress Appropriated for 1889-60, the sum of §817,963,857. The Fifty-first congress, $988,410,119, making au apparent diflerence of $170,446,262. But in the appropriations of the Fifty-first congress is an item of $25,321,907 which represents that amount of deficiency in the appropriation of the Fiftieth congress and should therefore properly be added to the expenses of the Fiftieth congress, which swells its total appropriation to $843,285.764 and deducted from the appropriation of the Fifty-first congress leaves the net appropriation of the latter $963,088.222, an increase of appropriation of but $145,124, 329. Senator Allison gives the items of increase of appropriation by the Fifty-first congress as follows: Increase on account of establishing agricultural experiment stations, etc., $1,441,473, for recruiting toe army, $32,085 for District of Columbia, police, streets and schools, $637,849 for continuing the construction of harbor defenses, $2,302,144 to carry into effect,treaty negotiations with various Indian tribes $7,307,146, for executive, legislative and judicial branches of government $1,456,633 on account of internal revenue service $300,000 for naval construction and new plants $14,042,344 for pensions (including $25.3^1^907 deficiency of Fiftieth cgp

parent since Dowling hall has been Eat to other purposes, and our opera ouse is too large and expensive lor many such things. I should think that if the city feels unable to buy it or lease it, some of our generous craUaluta might purchase it and make a gift of it to Terrs Haute people. A thousand or two from a few of our rich men would turn this block into a lasting monument to their generosity and for an unlimited number of yean grateful hearts would cherish their memory. Let this question be agitated. Let us have some exnrsssion from others on this subject. This seems our last chances for getting a central park. I know there are hundreds who would enjoy it that cannot go to the other park. Think of it in time to secure it before buildings are put upon it for homes. What a grand place it would be, what nice city offices and hall, could be made out of the commodious old building!
HERE AND THERE-
A representative of one of the daily papers of this city, provided with a duly accredited press complimentary, presented himself for admission at the first floor entrance of the opera hsuse last night. A little fellow, almost lost in a big plug hat—a regular sawed off epitome of perfect physical manhood—seized the little sard in his delicate digits, and with a graceful and condescending move of his little hand motioned the scribe to enter, and said, "Back row of seats, please." "What did you say?" the humble reporter ventured to inquire. "I said take a seat in the back row." "For what reason?" 6oftly asked the newspaper man that is where Pass in, please." "Look here you may or may not have secured a wonderful fund of experience," remarked the reporter, "but there is one thing dead sure, for a very little fellow you have a most collossal gall. I happen to hold a check for one of the best seats in the house. Not in the back row, to-night not even to accommodate yon."

Not Ready Money.
When Johnny's mother sent him to the grocery she put the money for the purchase in a safe place, and told him not to touch it "Well, my little man," said the grocer, "what do you want?" "Fifteen cents' worth of molasses in this pitcher," answered Johnny.
The grocer measured out the molasses, and handed it to the boy, saying: "Where's the money?" "It's in the pitcher," said the obedient little customer.—Youth's Companion. -maternal Anxiety.
