Special to The Indianapolis New*. Logansport. Ind., Fcbruarj’ 15.—Senate bill No. 364 introduced by Senator Hawklns. providing for fees and salaries for county officers, Is causing much discussion. Under the fee and salary act ot 1896, Cass county officers receive salaries as follows: Clerk, 63,300; auditor, |3,600; recorder, 61,900, treasurer 62,500 and sheriff 63,800. This county has a population of over 35,000, which places It In the seventh class, under which there would be a material Increase in salaries. An examination of the records show that the clerk would not gain much financially, but the other officials would. The majority vt disinterested persons are strongly opposed to the Hawkins bill on the ground that It means an Increased salary for every official. The argument that by ’allowing the officials a part of the fees, they would have an incentive to more thorough performance o? thtlr duties, and that the fees do not come off the public at large, but from those who transact business with the offices, does not And general approval. A number of prominent business men and farmers who were asked for an expression of opinion regarding the bill, expressed themselves as follows: Frank Bwlgart-I am opposed to both the old and new fee and salary bills. In my Judgment the fees should be fixed so as to give the officers a fair return for their services. There should be no constructive fees, and the officers should be compelled to make a full return of all fees charged and collected. As between the two fee and salary bills, I favor the old. %he only purpose of 4he new Is largely to Increase pay to county officers without relief from excessive charges of fees and extortion. • Benjamin F. Keesltng—I am heartily In favor of the Hawkins bill. A county will never get the best efforts of its officers until they are encouraged in the performance of their duties by being personally Interested. The enactment of a law giving them a per cent, of the fees collected will incite them to conscientious services and a close collection of fees, especially delinquent taxes. The present salaries are not a cent too high. A. M. Roop—Anything that will Increase taxes and the burdens of the people at this time is wrong. There should be a general reduction of salaries all along the line. If the new law falls to do this, the Republican Legislature will be brought to account at the next election. The county officers, who lobby the Legislature for any increase In salary, will be blacklisted by the people. The Rev. J. C. Kauffman—I regard as inopportune any attempt to pass a law increasing the salaries of county officers at a time when there is a general reduction of salaries and wages In all lines of business. The officers are now well paid to do their work and do it well. Nathaniel Tilton—I nm opposed to the Hawkins bill, or any measure designed to Increase the pay of our county officers. In my opinion, the salary of every one is greater than he could make In any line of business for a period as long as the term of office. Richard Twells-The attempt to increase salaries of county officers to the extent designed by the * Hawkins bill should not be countenanced.

Dr, J. Z. Powell—Salaries tor offices wUh no fees, should be Axed IccordlngB population of counties. Offices with fees

should pay a small fixed salary and a percentage of fees as an Inducement to collect them, but the percentage should not be so large as to run the salary beyond a reasonable compensation. I believe in good fair wages to every one, but not in ex-

tortion or robbery,

J. A. Downey -I favor & fixed salary and a percentage of fees, but believe that the Hawkins bill would largely increase present salaries, a move to which I am op-

posed.

FAVOR X FIXED SCHEDl LK. How the People of Terre Hitnte View County Officers* Pay. Special to The Indianapolis New*. Terre Haute* Ind., February 15.—Interviews with several of Terre Haute’s best known cltlsens on the fee and salary question disclose that they are practically of one mind. All are agreed that there should be some fixed schedule of salaries, proportionate to the population of the various counties, and that these salaries should be kept as low as compatible w.th efficient service. W. H. Duncan, who Is now giving the city records an expert examination, says: "There are too many loop-holes In our laws. They permit officials, in many Instances, to acquire revenues that are wholly unknown to the general public. The only business-like way to deal with either county or city officers Is to pay a certain fixed salary and cut off ail other perquisites." W. P. Ijams, while admitting that he has not closely followed the present Legislature, says he has gathered from what he has read of the proposed bill that it provides for a liberal increase all around. He does not believe the times will justfv such a measure. "The Legislature will keep piling things ujxm the people if they are not careful,” he said, "untllthe people wlH simply decMne to submit. Then there will be something drop." H. C. Hanna, a cousin of Mark A. Hanna, says: "Hard times have necessitated the curtailing of expenses In every other direction, and I should certaltny deem it Inadvisable to try to salaries of county officer* now, or to heap further burdens on the tax-payer In any other way.” . Benjamin De Baun soys: "I believe In paying adequate salaries to good men for good work. Care ought to be taken, however. that no excessive demands are m joshua Jump asked: “When will otm legislative bodies get tired of tampering with things? They no sooner get a law made to suit one man than another raises objection to some phase of It, and it has to all be made over. While obstructionists are gM^ally condemned, Ihave about concluded that If they could only succeed In preventing any legislation whatever, the country would be betfex off. W. P. Boatman said: "Some of the iKrdri5S.2S'S'<s a or^, ness of county salaries J^oulci be careD. Deming. * I believe there are very few county officers going to resign, eve® if their salaries are not Increased. - HOWARD OOtXTY SENTIMENT. It Is Generally o'pposed To Aay la- . crease of Remnneratlon. Special to The Indianapolis News. Kokomo. Ind., February 15.—The sentiment of Howard county Is strongly against the proposition to raise the salaries of county officers, as embodied in the Hawkins MU. The business men of this city are unanimous against a general advance of salaries. The oldest and most prominent business men expressed themselves as follows: ^ H. a Davis, Dry Goods—I am opposed to any advance whatever. Considering other things, the salaries are all high enough, and some of them are too high. H. C. s-llers, Grocer-No. no. I am In favor of lowering them Instead of making a raise. While farmers are selling corn at 18 cents a bushel, oats at 15 cents, potatoes at 15 cents, and other products In proportion. It Is no time to talk of raising salaries that are away too high now. A. L. Thjilman, Dry Goods—MRm openeral raise. Semi# way be „ the most of >me too high.

THE INDIANAPOLIS NEWS. MONDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 1897.

year. A new law could be framed that would give s more equitable adjustment of the salaries without any aggregate raise. J. W. Scott, Druggist—I am opposed to a general Increase, but I am In favor of a better equalisation of the salaries. Some are too high, some are too low. G. E. Meek. Druggist—I am opposed to an Increase but In favor of a better equalisation of the salaries. A. F. Armstrong, Hardware—I am posiitlvely opposed to any raise of offlc.al sal-Ex-Judge Pollard-Most assuredly, no. The salaries are too high now, and should be reduced. If the officers are not satisfied with their wages, let them resign. I haven’t heard of anybody resigning. If they should, I do not anticipate much difficulty in fllling their places. King Kennedy. Clothing-I am in favor of good men and good salaries. For that reason I believe that a conservative raise would be the right thing. Perhaps not a general advance, but decent compensation for first-class service. Give me a high standard service and a correspondingly high salary. O. V. Darby, Dry Goods-I am opposed to the proposed increase. The burdens of the public are already all they can bear. There are some inequalities In the lat> that might be corrected without Increasing the salaries. THE REY. MR. SMITH INSTALLED. He Formally Take* Charge A* Pastor of the Tabernacle.

The Rev. J. Gumming Smith was formally Installed as pastor of the Tabernacle Presbyterian church last night. The First, Second and Fourth Presbyterian churches held no evening services, in order that their pastor and people might take part In this. The congregation was as great as the church would hold. There was good music and the ceremony was Impressive. The Rev. Solomon C. Dickey offered the opening prayer, followed by a Scripture lesson by the Rev. Warren B. Dunham. The sermon was preached by the Rev. Dr. M. L. Haines, of the First Presbyterian church, who spoke of the prevalence of the religion of Christ over all substitutes, perversions and scientific discovery. The Rev. Frank H. Hays conducted the installation ceremony, putting questions and pledges In turn to the pastor and the people of the church. The Rev. George L. Mackintosh, of the Fourth Presbyterian church, delivered the charge to the pastor, reminding him of his duties to the special needs of his congregation rather than as a preacher to an Imaginary audience of critics. Th6 Rev. J. A. MHburn, of the Second Presbyterian church, followed with a charge to the people of the church on their duties to the pastor, reminding them that they were not to feel that they had a mortgage on his Intellect, or to put a theological strait-jacket upon him. A manliness of character was to be expected In the pastor, but he must not be expected to be a paragon. He spoke finally of a loyal love for the minister, not a foolish love that would' embarrass him by overpraise to the world, but a healthy, salubrious love. The Futarc of Indianapolis. The Rev. R. V. Hunter spoke to a large crowd at the Seventh Presbyterian church last night on the "Future of Indianapolis.” His remarks were listened to thoughtfully. Mr. Hunter said that the cities make the community. They wield a powerful influence for good or evil. As the cities go, so goea the nation. It has been so throughout 'the history of the world. He believed that an era of reform was upon this city, and that It was now starting forward upon a broader plane than ever before. He complimented the school system; the public Institutions were the best in the land, he said, and no city in the country so thoroughly enforced Its laws, with* the exception of the liquor law. Indianapolis had better street transportation facilities than many of the other citlee, and there was here a foundation upon which to build a great city. The material Interests should be carefully watched. A financial policy arranged by which, the city could be governed economically and new tax laws adopted. It should be made a felony to evade the assessors and to make fraudulent returns. He held that now was the time for the city to purchase ground for parks, that land was constantly Increasing In value, and it could never be bought cheaper than right now. In regard to the valuable franchise which the city gives, Mr. Hunter said that great core should be taken. The people were paying too much for gas; the city should own its water and gas plants. In speaking of the family, Dr. Hunter said that bad sanitation, defective sewerage, brothels, saloons and the like broke down the sacred relations of the family and tended to lower the standard of citizenship. Of the schools ne said that entirely too many branches were taught, and knowledge of all sorts was crammed Into a child’s head In k way which did little good. | * ■, la Memory of Mrs. Henulnger. Memorial services In honor of Mrs. Garnet Ashbrook Bennlnger, who died February 4 at her home in Chicago, and was buried In Louisville, February 7, were held yesterday afternoon at the Central Christian church, of which she was a former member. Many who had been her friends as a teacher in the public schools were present. The Rev. J. E. Pounds read some favorite scriptural passages. Howard Cale, superintendent of the Sun-day-school, spoke ot her good Sundayschool work. Miss Mary Judson spoke of her work in the local field of the Young People's Christian Endeavor Society, and Miss Bettle Wishard of her great activity In the State field. The Rev. D. R. Lucas, former pastor of the church, also spoke In her praise. Ml STORZ KIU.ED BIHSELF. Probably Because of Another Man's Profit In n Saloon Trade.

for l would not l for the r *

‘ August Storz, thirty-two years old, a farmer living two miles west of the city, on the Carter farm, took his life yesterday Just before noon. Storz had been In his usual health. He left his wife In the kitchen and went to the front room, where he lay down on a lounge. A few minutes later Mrs. Storz heard a pistol shot, and went to the front room. Storz was bleeding profusely from a wound In the right temple. Dr. Curtis, of Mt. Jackson, was called, and he called Dr. Marsee. from this city, who arived only a few minutes before Storz died. Storz, about a year ago, kept a saloon In Mt. Jackson. He recently sold the

fortunate enough to hold the property until he could have realized the additional profit. Storz Is said to have been despondent for some months. -o Coming Entertainment*. A lecture by Joaquin Miller will be given to-night at Plymouth church. Mr. Millers’s subject is '■ Lessons Not In Books-” He comes- undn- the auspices of two pupils of the hign school. Alfred A. FMxHand. the celebrated banlc soloist, will give a recRal to-night at the Propylaeum. He wMl be assisted by the Indiana polls Banjo Club. Central-avenue Methodist Sunday School has a number of strong Bible clases, and among them, Class No. 16, composed of thirty-four young women. They have planned for an entertainment to be given next Friday night in the new church building, for the benefit of the school. A program of vocal and Instrumental music has been arranged. Miss Ida Virginia Smith, the delsarte artist, will appear In a number of selections. The young women under whose auspices the concert 's given, will act as a reception committee.;’; .-o The Commercial Clab’z PreoMwt. •- ^ 4?:; W, The Independent. The Commercial Club’s election of William Fortune as Its president looks like an open defiance of the community. Fortune is a discredited man. He bets in loo money of the people im- _ tabled and which a oourt has not legally his. Yet he refuses to make restitution. No body of men presided over by such an officer can expect to enjoy the confidence of the people on whom they depend for success. One would se that they would put forward as representatitves men of popularity J integrity. They have ‘ the opposite course, tneas of the Coma public body.

THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.

Sham Change In ifiedal Verdict I,nw. ' To the Editor of The Indianapolis News: The change In the special verdit t law recommended by the majority of the committee of the Legislature on that subject Is no better than the law was before. The courts have fhe same power now to change or modify the Interrogatories offered by attorneys In every- case that this proposed change offers to give them. ' This report by the majority of the committee ts a mockery, and to enact into law would be but a waste of time and money-. What the Legislature should do is simply to repeal the special verdict law of 1896. and t^cn leave plaintiffs and defendants to the law by jury, with Interrogatories and the answers thereto, as it existed before the special verdict law of 1895 was passed in the special Interest of the corporations. If the verdict of the Jury is still to consist simply of interrogatories and the answers, the Legislature had better openly abolish trial by jury, and leave all the Issues to be delermined by the court. The act of 1895. on special verdicts, practically abolished trial by Jury. If the gentlemen favoring the majority report lately made, yet retaining the verdict by Interrogatories alone, are in favor of the corporations solely, why not say so honestly and above board. It is time to inquire whether that special verdict law will be repealed until it is done The Special Verdict Law. To the Editor of The Indianapolis News: There seems to be only, two classes of attorney* In the couotry opposed to the special verdict law of 1896—one is the class that can not possibly write a special verdict, embodying all the material questions in a case essential to a recovery, and another that can do It, but is too lazy. There seems to be some objection to the special verdict law. It is claimed that Jurors are not competent to answer the interrogatories. A Juror that is not competent and has not a sufficient degree of Intelligence to answer yes or no, or say that there Is no evidence, to the Interrogatories submitted, does not possess sufficient intelligence to do Justice between the parties to the litigation. It is an admission on the part of attorneys arrayed against the special verdict law that a Jury Is Incompetent to find facts or return a verdict on the facts, but is eminently competent to return a general verdict on prejudice. The special verdict law, as it now stands, should not be repealed, as It Is to the Interest of all honest and intelligent people of this State that it should be upWIILIAM A. KITTINGER. Anderson, Ind., February 1. In Favor of Mixed Schools. To the Editor of The Indianopoii* New*: The parents of colored children are not ready to send them out through rain, hall and snow past school after school to reach a colored school building, while the white child can enter the school nearest his home. The case remind# one of the Cuban situation. We are not accorded free citizenship, but are treated as Inferiors. We <K> not want the society of whites. We want Intelligence; but we do not want to sacrifice the health of our children to support teachers Of color. While I have the highest regard for our teachers, I can not oppose the Jones bUl to favor a few, for now the parent and child suffer for the sake of the teacher’s salary. This is why our young people die so fast; they need proper clothing and proper footwear. We want fair treatment, whereby we can edneate our children and preserve their health at the same time. I am sorry to know that some of our teachers and preachers did not oonolder this when they began to contend for the separate schools. Representative Jones Is not seeking his own Individual Interest, but the welfare of his people. He has had some educational advantages which enable him to know some of our needs. I expect to hear next that a separate tax be levied to support separate schools; but I doubt very much If those who are fearful for their salaries would Contribute 61 for such a purpose. We could then control our own school system, build factories, mills and shops to put our idle sons and daughters to work and teach them to make an honest living. But before making this request, I ask, how many families there are to open “one room,” hire a teacher and send their children. PARENT AND TAX-PAYER. Opposition To the Jones Bill. To the Editor of The Indlanapoti* New*: I see through your paper that much has been said about the Jones school bill. I can not see why any one should oppose the bill, only those that are teachers of my race that fear that they may lose their occupation. I do not see why any white person should oppose it, only through prejudice. As I understand the matter, it Is a question of right mid justice, regardless of race. This bill has only caused those of my race that oppose It to show that they have not the better interests of the people at heart and those ot the white race to show that prejudice yet has the lead of justice. WM. A. MAYS.

“Sweet Reasonableness.*’ To th* Editor of The Indlanapoii* News: I read the communication of Albert Lieber In your paper with much interest. I am thrown into some confusion on ac-‘ count of certain vague terms used by the writer, in which my name is used. He says that “the so-called righteous are unjust to their fellow-mortals.” He refers to “the truly good, led by our old friend, Ell t. Ritter." Again he refers to “people Captain Ritter could destroy.” He speaks of the number of men employed, the living furnished and charity bestowed by brewers. He says “the saloon-keepers’ money goes out on missions of mercy, and Is as effective In relief as are the contributions of those who hold themselves to be the only righteous.” He appeals for “sweet reasonableness” in the consideration of these matters. I respond with pleasure to the kindly tones and expressions of my friend Lieber, and am anxious to have no kind of misunderstanding. For what purpose does he give figures and facts and cite deeds of charity and expressions of depreciation of the pretensions of other people? Is not all this for the purpose of exposing these other people and proving them to be pretenders only, and to prove that in fact the “truly good,” “the righteous,” those who “Judge their fellow-mor-tals Justly," those who exercise "sweet reasonableness,” those who furnish work and expend large suras, are the twentyeight breweries and 10,000 saloon-keepers of Indiana, to whom he refers? I will admit that I had not considered saloon-keepers, taken as a whole, as angels of mercy. I further admit that

HOW TO FIND OUT.

Fill a bottle or common water glass with urine and let it stand twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates a diseased condition of the kidneys. When urine stains linen it is positive evidence of kidney trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or pain In the back. Is also convincing proof that the kidneys and bladder are out of order. WHAT TO DO. There Is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp Root, the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish In relieving pain In the back, kidneys, liver, bladder and every pert of the urinary passage*. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing It, or bad effects following use of liquor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get Up many times during the night. The mild and ths extraordinary effect of Swamp Root la soon realised. It stand* the highest for its wonderful cure* of th- most distressing cases. If you need a medicine you should have the best. Sold by druggists; price 50 cents and 61. For a sample bottle and pamphlet, both sent free by mall, mention The Indianapolis News and send your full postoffice address to Dr. Kilmer A Co., Binghamton, N. Y. The fact that this offer appears in this paper. Is a sufficient guarantee of Its genuinene**.

I had looked more at the character end effect of the transactions by which

mistake about all these things. I h very high esteem for Mr. Lieber as a gentleman and a man of ability and generosity. but he is off the question. The question before this community at this time is, shall the laws be enfotced against saloon-keepers and wine-room-keepers the same as against other ueople? There is nobody making the highsounding professions he imagines, and if they do. It has nothing to do with the question. It is not a question as to who are pretenders. etc. It is a question whether a given class of business shall have immunity for violation of law; whether sworn officers shall do their duty; whether the people shall favor the enforcement or non-enforcement of law. i am informed, from what I believe to be reliable sources, that while the law against gambling and some other offenses has been fairly well enforced, the wine-room evil and the disregard of law by saloons has never been greater in cltv than for the last six months. Th*® may seem extravagant, but invest" would amaze this community. T bereb> express my appreciation for the very perceptible change for the bettertimt has been brought about by the preoent monS!""*' 10 " ‘ ° EtTr RI#EU. Mure “Sweet 'Reasonableue**. * To the Editor of The Indianapolis New*:, The article in your issue of ttoinh ««• urKfcr the heading “A Brewer on Beer and Sweet Reasonableness” seems ccnL U »» refreshing, and suitable for readingjdur ing a very sultry summer. Most PW® think that men in that sort of business ane in it for revenue simply.

True enough, perhaps, all this, but what contributes to make “charity organizations’’ ® the business these brewers and saloon keepers are in? "Thejr on missions of mercy while their beer goes out on missions of death anddestruction, of brutalizing men, and making widows of their wives and P 00 *.*®" graced orphans of their children. Shame on the community that will make such a business profitable— .t can m)t be made respectable J- PERRY ELLIOTT. Fee* and Salaries. To the Editor of The Indianopoii* New*: The people who drew the fee and salary bill are certainly very smooth people. If you notice, they have raised the salaries of most of the deputies around the mate House. Men, I am sure, holding these positions have been very well satisfied with their salaries, and would never have thought of asking an Increase. The same is true of the Appellate Court Judges. Their salary now Is 63,750. This bill would make the salary $4,000. These Judges would not think of resigning, • in my opinion, if the salaries were reduced to 62,500. The reason for the advances given these judges and deputies Is very evident. All of these men will be expected to try and help influence the members of the Legislature in voting for the bill, and this i« the reason, and the only reason, why these salaries were raised I am as fully satisfied as I can be of anything in this world that If the bill passes, it will turn the State over to the Democrats In 1898. The county officers In a great many counties have dictated the nominations for both Houses. Keep Them at Home. To the'Editor of The Indlanapoii* News: • The people would like to know the names of those 460 county officers, who are not satisfied with the pay of their office, so that they may be kept at home after this, where the£ belong.
