"Exactly. You're right- It is a mercy that there's a dozen pounds left of me. But the greatest mercy of all is that before 1 actually coughed myself out of existence I got hold of Parker's Ginger tonic, and a few bottles of it cured me." In this positive strain writes Mr. Abraham Orner, of Highspire, Dauphin county, Pa. The tonic will render you the same service. It is not a mere essence of ginger, but an original nompound of powerful curatives. It stimulates, warms, soothes and tones up the system.

THURSDAY, MARCH 1, 1883

THE LEGISLATURE.

DEMOCRATIC LEGISLATIVE CAUCUS. The Democratic members of the Legislature held a caucus last night. A ballot upon the congressional appritonment bill resulted in its defeat by tbe deciding vote of tlie presiding officer, Representative Tiiley. It was decided to meet this morniDg at 11 o'clock to elect the candidates nominated for the benevolent boards Will A. Peelle, the assistant clerk of the House, was decided upon as the success or ot Captain J. B. Conner, as chief of the Bureau oi Statistics. Dr. Collett will not be disturbed in his present position as State Geologist. Concerning theJohn-son-Overstreet contest, no decided action was taken, but there is a decided disposition manifested against 'ousting Mr Overstreet. After the caucus a Democratic senator stated positively that the metropolitan police bill would not pass the Senate.

A report circulated yesterday that Republican senators whose terms were about to expire had determined to resign so as to prevent the passage ot the metropolitan police bill, and it was also rumored last night that the Democrats bad instructed Speaker Bynum not to sign the general appropriation bill until the police bill and other political legislation was safely disposed of, but this was denied by every Democrat who approached on the subject.

In the Senate the report of the conference committee on the general appropried in. The resolu

ation bill was concurri tion of Mr. Bundy asking for an investi-

Sown.

ation of the State Treasury was voted

Mr. Frazier's bill to create the Court of Appeals to relieve the Supreme Court was read the third time and then defeat* ed by a vote of 37 ayes to 50 nays.

A discussion on an amendment to tbe fee and salary bill came to nothing. Tbe bill abolishing the office of city treasurer in cities of 60,000 or more inhabitants, the work to be done by the county treas urer, passed. It will save Indianapolis $100,000 a year.

J"! STOCK AT LABGK. 0' Mr. Shively called up his motion to reconsider the vote by which Mr. Helms' bill to amend section 1 of an act to provide for the regulation of stock running at at large was rejected.

Mr. Shively stated that in all fairness and justice this bill ought to pass. He was at his home on the Wabash last Saturday and yesterday. He talked with farmers living along the Wabash and

'+1*

klhjit

others streams, and they told him that EomethiDg«anst be dooe or they cannot farm their grounds this year. The argument that the poor man's pow should be allowed to run at large should not be considered in this question. Here are these large farmers with their fertile valleys, and unless something is done these men cannot farm their lauds. Their fences are all swept away.

Mr. McMullen hoped that the bill wonld pass. It has been stated that tire bill should simply apply to .tbe valleys of the Ohio, Wabash, and other large streams. Suuh a law would be unconstitutional. We could not make it apply to a single locality or any particular localities and make it constitutional. As soon as the cropping season of 1884 are past, the provisions of this bill go out of force ana the present law comes' into effect again. He knew ot a, strip of bottom land thirty miles in length .where not a fence was left. r,., f,

Mr. Holler opposed th6 biir Mr. Smith, of Tippecanoe, had made a calculation, and of the 18,000 square miles in the State nearly ene-thirtieth of this whole area is without fences! He desired to place himself on record as being in favor of the passage of the bill.

If r. Mock was from a county that was traversed by the raging Wabash, but he, thought tbe board ot commissioners of his county knew better than himself what the people wanted in reference to the question. He hoped the bill would not paes.

Mr, Montgomery lived in a county where they have a river. He desired to say that for the last few years they have had but little fencing along this river, but the people have been magnanimous enough to keep up their stock. He thought the people should appeal to the county commissioners.

THE JUDGESHIP.

I I Vi

Gottip on the Street To-day—How the Fight Program

"How does the Judgeship mattei stand to-day Inquired a GAZETTE scribe this morning ot Mr. Dick T. Morgan, who was hurrying along on business bent. "Still as uncertain as ever. I was in Indianapolis yesterday but did not see the Governor, though 1 saw his secretary, Mr. Roberts. The principal reason that no appointment has been made is because the Governor is overworked. This is the last week of the legislative session and bills are crowding in on him for signature. Of course he must read them all before attaching his signature. He is very exact. If there should be a camma misplaced on a bill it would be sent back for correction. Besides, the distribution of the appropriation for the relief of flood sufferers has taken most ot his time. He is eonstantly being waited on by relief soliciting committees and all his time is occupied from the hour he reaches his office until late in tu.e afternoon. He does not go away to dinner. Mr. Roberts tells me ne is engaged in preparing for the Governor a synopsis ot the recommendations for the different candidates. That doesn't look much as though he had made up his mind." "Some of the signatures to the protest against Mr. Nevitt were withdrawn were they not?"

Yes, out of the forty-three who signed it several afterward wrote letters stating that they had notbioit to say against Mr. Nevitt's character or fitness.'1 "Who were they "One was Gol. McLean." "How are Judge Scott's chances?" "The Judge came home yesterday and said the Governor assured him he could have the appointment if he got the endorsement of the bar. Dave Hemy is circulating a petition for him to-day and it is receiving a good many signatures." "What are Judge Pierce's prospects?" "Asgood as anybody's."

TO-DAY'S TELEGRAMS.

STAR ROUTE SCENE.

During the cross-examination of Rerdell in the Star route case to-day, a outting remark by Ingersoll to the witness caused an angry passage between counsel, during which Merrick spoke of Ingersoll as a puppy, and Ingersoll, his face red with anger, called Merrick a dirty dog, at" the same time involuntarily picking tip a heavy ink-Btand. The court finally restored order. Merrick began to explain that he had been pressed beyond the power of endurance, but the court interrupting him said the language was inexcusable under any provocation. Merrick said he would retract by direction of the court, but hoped Ingersoll would be asked to retract as well. Ingersoll said no man could abuse him without resistance on his part. He said he would do it at the day of judgment if he were assailed by God. After some further explanations the affair was amicably settled and the entire passage stricken from the record. TKABING UP A RAILBOAD TRACK AT CHI

CAGO.

The police had expected a riot, but the mob by a strategem deceived the officers about the time and place. When the latter arrived, the rioters formed in line, marched some distance in an orderly manner and dispersed. No arrests were ade.

The committee of the Missouri house have in their possession 8,231 petitions asking that the prohibitory amendment be submitted to the people and 47^81 remonstrances against such action. The committee takes this as a fair expression^ of tbe sentiments of the people aod will report unfavorably on the joint resolution providing for submission. The Democratic House caucus last night, 46 to 23,„ decided it inexpedient to take up the^ question of prohibition.
