Tn seven yiaIs of wrath and One
More.

The .TonrsaF. yesterday, had eight articles
On the Herafd Tho first, entitled . State of
sk< Crs<.- was petition for rehearing in be-
half Of Governor MORTON. in the case against
him and HOLLOWAY. HOLLOWAY l. yet
silent. The petition in behalf Of thc Cover
nor i peitifogging frivolity, and Is oyerruled.
jog RoBERTs could have drawn better petit
ton.
The second article Is headed I" Public Plun-
der and diselo-es that the Journal has been
eognizani Of some ease Of public plumber by
state printer " some years ago." which II
has kept concealed. and now barely h:nts
about in such vague terms NJ 70 AFFORD no
information. We know nothing about
It. IL we did we should expose IL.
The Journal knows. II seems, about this
yillainy Of a State Printer who was Demo
eraf, and yet coneeals il. Why don't you 60
into him and expose the wrongi The next ar
ticle Is entitled " Cleaning Out" The Journal
says that when the state interest became due,
some years ago, the Auditor did not pay 1t,
and the Attorney General prosecuted n case in
Court which went 70 tbs Supreme Court,
where il was decided there was no appropria-
ton; a case which was decided rightly, and is
reported In full IN the Indiana Reports, whore
II can be read. The facts OF the case werethat
the Republican Legislature bolted, ran of to
Madison, made no appropriation W pay the
interest on the State debt, and then MORTON,
u ave trouble, wanted the officers, in viola
tan Of law, To pay the money without
an appropriation, and they would not do
IL; the court decided they could not, and the
Governor admits. hi his lite message that the
Legislature had never regarded that there was
astsnding appropriation. The Court was de-
feated with the rest Of the ticket, In the late
election by force and fraud, and we will admit
because they would not unite in sanctioning
the lawlessness and usurpations Of the Repub-
licans. But the Journal adds " somebody
made good deal q money out ef that deeis-
ion.v Now, we ask, who was its Come, out
with IL. Give the facts. Come out Come
out. The next article IL entitled "Aa Unau-
fhorf<sd Tnrftafion." The point in This arti-
Gle Is. that when we found that certain Demo
cratic senator's were determine. to force
through bill raising the interest on our two
and half per cent bonds, wa withdrew our
opposition. Now, we ask, who az those Dem
oeratic senator's! Who are the Nr. Jour
ndIf Let us know.
The next article headed s. E1actiyv has
something % ssy about what somebody said
about somebody making a noise IN New York
city. As we were never there we know moth
Ing about whether anybody made a noise OF
not. The next article headed Perkinism, .
fntimates that the twcnty-three Republican,
voted with the Democrats on the Maine law
on the ground Of elpediency, not principle,
that Is, in principle they favor the law, but
were afraid Of its effect upon the election
Some Of their friends say they voted against
the bill because it was not prohibitory enough
they were opposed TO any license at ALI IL i
not explained this way to the Germans. viii
the Journal tell va which is the true explana
tion; And whether he was for or against tn,
billi The article " Reform Needed" goes into
Mr.. RIsrINE, Mr.. ACHEY, Governor WILLARD
fHoMAs ID. WALPoLE and "a Democrat,
State Printer" If they were guilty Of roguery
denounce them for IT, The matters stated ar,
all new to Us. Why has the Journal kept :,
long silent on these acts Of wickedness? Tn,
last article headed Z" Hadn't a Lucid Inter
edl," Is too important for us now to attempt
an answer 10. Thus the walls Of wrath, on be
ing opened, arc found 10 contain nothing bu
wind. Try again.
