The loyal lekders Of the Republican
party atc constantly pfating about
secession, and denouncing it as a RENE
dy for wrongs which it is assumed the
majority will infict upon the minority.
A joint resolution was adopted by the
Indiana Senate, recently, declaring
that THAT State withdrew her consent to
the adopting of the Fifteenth Amend
ment, which she declared had become
a part of the Constitution by fraud
and force, without the consent Of the
American people When the resolu-
ton reached the lower House, where
it was equally certain of adoption,
thirty-four loyal Republicans seeded
to break up the quorum, and thus
defeat the wishes Of the majority =
Loyal true!
The Cleveland Herald comments
thus:
The withdrawal of thirty four Re
publican members of the Indiana Leg
islature, thus breaking up the law
making power. recalls ike proceedings
on the part of the Ohio Legislature
many years since. Such proceedings
are indetensib'e any way you a FIX
it. Representatives are not sem to
the Legislature to run away, but tn
i-stand BY" and fght it out, let the
majority do what it may see fit
Withdrawal from the halls of legisla-
ton is revolutionary, and no party
should sustain its friends guilty Of
such a crime. No party can endorse
such action and sustain itself. Both
the old parties tried it in Ohio. and
both were condemned by the people.
The lesson tsnght Ohio politicians
years since has not yet been forgotten.
and We have no idea such an expert
ment will again be tried in this State
until the memory OF those absquatula-
tons has faded away. We have ev.
cry respect for the rights of miBorities,
and the arrogance and tyranny of ma
jorities, who trample upon such rights
can not be too heartily condemned
But secession 10 no remedy for the
evil. The evil 6f intolerance on the
part Of majorities is fast correcting it
self, and all parties are coming to
| their sober senses upon the rights OF
| minorities. A minority is not res
ponsible for the acts of the majority,
but q minority becomes directly re-
sponsible for breaking up the law ma
king power. In no view of the case
can a minority be justified in vacating
their seats, aud this action Of the Re
publican Indiana Legislators will surely
react upon the Republican party oil
that State unless the act is condemn
cd.

NO MORE STATE ELECTIONS.

The House of Representatives on
Wednesday, by q vote of IA ayes to
81 nays passed the supplemental en-
forcement law. The most obnoxious
feature of the bill-that authorizing
the marshal and his deputies to call
or the military and naval forces of the
United States to enable them to dis
charge their duties was stricken out.
The bill comprises eighteen sections,
but IT may be briefly summed up as a
measure making the Federal election
law OF last session more stringent il
most every respect by imposing pen
alties of fines and imprisonment re-
garding the registration of voters, ex-
tending its operations to all cities
whose populations exceeds 400 o in
babitaats, provided two citizens shall
apply to the judge of the United
States Court in whose circuit the town
Or city may be located that they desire
the laws to be enforced in said place,
and requiring said court to provide for
he appointment Of Federal inspectors
and supervisors of elections, to attend
all registration of voters and elections
for Representative OR delegate in
Congress, aud to remain in session
while the act is being enforced to trans
act business under it. Elaborate
powers are given to the inspectors to
inspect ut all times on the day of the
election the way the voting is done,
and the way the registry tally books
and lists are kept. and to personally
scrutinize, count aud canvas every
ballot, whatever may be the endorse
lnent on said ballot, or in whatever
COX it may be placed or found, and to
forward their report to their chiet SUI
peryisor provided by this act for such
judicial district. Provision is made
for the United States Marshal and a
number of appointed deputies to pro
tect and assist the inspectors and ar
rest without any warrant any n who
interferes with the voting or registra
ton under ccler of even State or mu-
nieipai law, or who commits any of
the offenses prescribed by this act /;
no person, however, is to be arrested
without process for any offense not
committcdin the presence of. the mar

Henri Charles Ferdinand Marie
Oieudonne 4Artois, Duke of Bor-
d-aux and Count de- hambord, is the
head of the elder branch of the Bour
bon family, and was born in Paris,
September 20, 1920. His father,
Prince Charles Ferdinand d'Artois,
Duke de Berri, was assassinate1 in
March Of the same year He was
baptized with great pomp in water
brought from Jordan by the ceiebra-
ted author Chateaubsian, and receiv
ed the title of Count de Chambord
from the castle which was purchas I'd
for him by public subscription. Soon
after the revolution Of 1880 Charles
x. resolved to abdicate in his favor,
and even made a proclamation To that
effect to the troops assembled at Ram
bouillet. but the demonstration failed
utterly and the Duke of B ,rdeaux
was forced to quit the country. I AT
ter residing some time at tie ancient
palace Hollywood, in Edinburgh, he
travelled through Lombardy and TIA
ly to complete his education, and in
iS4S settled in London, where be
openly claimed the crown of France,
and held q sort of royal court in Bel
grave Square. In 1853 L is said that
a compact was concluded between the
Count DEF hanbord and the princes
of the house Of Orleans, by which
the conflicting claims of the el,ler and
younger branches of the Bourbon
family were amicabiy arranged; bu,
this agreement, ifany such were made
has V amounted to anything, as
the rivalry has continued as strong as
ever. The Count was married in
1916 to the Princess Maria Theresa,
daughter Of tile Duke of Modena,
but 10 children have resulted from
the union. and the probabilities are
that the elder branch ofthe Bourbons
will become extinct at his death.
COUNT DE PARIS.
Louis Philippe. Albert d0rfeans;
Count de Paris, who, it is said, vii
he placed at the head of the provis
ional government of France, is a sor
OF the late Duke d'Orleaps and grand
son OF Louis Philippe, late King o.
the French. He was bon at Paris
August "a, 1888, and was consequent
ly but ten years of age when the revo
luton of 1913 drove his family from
the throne. In company with his he
roic mother he witnessed the stormy
scenes in the. French Chambers, ant
subsequently went with her to Eng
land, where the Duchess d'Orlean.
died in 1859. He was educated un
der the care of this accomplished lady
and in 1861, accompanied by hi.
brother, the Duke de Charities, h,
came to America and rendered his
services to the Federal Government

States & Union.-The following
figures compiled from Official sources,
show the real and chattel property OF
the State for q period of ten years ;
and their rate of increase
The realty of 1859 was $3.50, 100000
Chattels s248. OOO, 600
There being no appraisement since
1859, the present return shows an ag-
gregate of 1,145, 000, 600 and the in
crease in ten years, is eighty-one per
cent.
The chattel property ofthe State at
the last assessment amounted to
$459, 900, 900 which is an increase of
seventy per cent.
The relative proportion of real, to
chattel property is, one dollar of chat
tel, to two dollars and fifty cents of
real property.
The grand duplicate of the State,
would be in round numbers, SIG, 900,
600 should there be no reduction.
1t is the imperative duty of the
Legislature. in view of the great in
crease Of the taxable bases, to reduce
the levies correspondingiy, and see
that no more taxes are collected, than
the public interest absolutely demands.
In this regard, the Legislature has a
very important duty to perform, and
its action should b. watched with care
by the people.
Take as an illustration ono Of the
first and second class. The taxes col
lected on them amount to about three
per cent. per annum. This is greater
than the annual increase of property.
No a stand this and prosper.
Should the Legislature perform its du-
ty in this respect, the great RESPONSE
bility for taxation will rest principally
with local authorities.
In the year just closed there was
collected for State pur-
poses $685. 42
County purposes 6,5O1, $50
City, Town, Township
and school; 1885, 59
Total, including PEN -
alties, s23, 1851
of which SI9 ,464,57S was levied by
local authorities, for purposes above
named. County Commissioners, City
Councils. Township Trustees and
Boards of Education should feel this
responsibility and move with great
are in making their levies that the
burthens of taxation may be removed
from the people.
There is no apparent necessity for
raising ss24, 600, 900 annually to carry
on u State AID local government
and the people have a right to aenand
q reduction and thereby relieve them
selves of some of this unjust burthen.
There has been a great deal of rou-
tine business since my last letter. A
bill for the taxing of rail road bonds
has been carefully prepared, and is
now pending. Irs real design is to
impose taxes on bonds of the North.
ern Pacific r. Road, which are soon
to be thrown on the market. These
bonds are to bear v and three
tenths interest, payable in gold. Il
the bonds should be held in Ohio. the
bill requires them to be registered in
the State Auditors Office, and a de.
post of q. 8. or State bonds made
with the State Treasurer, sufficient t.
secure the taxes thereon. r.

dream of youth which no maturity will
realize, not even when the long projected
railroad connects Bayfield, and st. Paul.
Opposite us, on Madeline Island, is La
Pointe, founded by the Jesuits in 1880. It
once had a population Of eighteen hundred,
reduced now to a sixth of that number.
We see only the old Catholic church the
rest Of the village is hidden from our view.
We leave Bayfield, on the "India," for
Marquette. Twenty-one hours of constant
sailing give us some idea of the magnitude
of Lake Superior. Northward we see moth
ing but the expanse Of waters. 1t is more
than hundred miles to the Canada shore.
Southwark low range of hills keeps in
view. We pass Keweenaw Point, "the
Cape Horn of Lake Superior" We are in
the copper region of Superior. One mine
in Houghton is thirteen hundred feet deep,
and four hundred and fifty men are em-
ployed in working it. The copper is found
in some sections so pure that it cannot be
got from the mine. The blast is ineffective
in it.
The principal silver mines of this region
arc on the north shore, about Thunder
Bay. There is Silver Islot, little rock,
not a quarter of an acre in area, but said to
contain the richest "lead" of silver in the
world The stone is reported to yield seven
thousand dollars worth of metal to the ton.
The working of it is attended with con-
siderable expense, as the "lead' dips be-
meath the surface of the Lake, and an ex-
tensive wall is building to protect the mine
from the sea- It is reported that the lead"
Of Silver lslet has been discovered on the
main shore. If so, this promises TO be the
great silver region of the world.
MARQUETTE.
This place gets its name from Pere Mar
quette, the Jesuit who explored these lakes
and the waters of the upper Mississippi two
centuries ago. 1t is Il fine town of four
thousand inhabitants, and is the centre of
one of the most productive iron districts in
the country. Immense quantities of iron
are mined and smehed within a radius of
twenty miles of Marquette. Thousands OF
tons of ore are annually shipped from here
to various points of the country. A manu-
facturcr of iron rails at Jefferson, Ohio, told
me that he could take tho ore to his place
and smelt it cheaper than he could buy
and transport the pig" because fuel is So
much cheaper with him than it is here.
| did not stop at Marquette but hasty
glance at it left favorable impression on
my mind.
The Lake Superior region is geologcally
old, propably the oldest part of the earth.
1t is rich in mineral wealth, rich in natural
scenery, and my only regret is that l could
not spend months here instead of days.
