city was represented by the sum Of SIS, 0OO,-
600. In 1871 it had increased TO S70,O 200, 900,
in 1872 the grand total OF trade is set
down in the report OF the board at
$50, 39S ,Sl7, and the last report for the
year 1873 places the aggregate business of
the city at $ll3. 98i,275 During a portion of
thise eleven years history, the action of the
Board Of Trade as an organization has been
somewhat sluggish, its system loose and in
efficient, and its cooperative work imper-
feet. Yet there hss been no period at which
1t had not in its membership some of the
shreNdest and nosE energetic business men
of the country, men who have made for
tunes for themselves and given a character
To the city for enterprise and solidlty of
business. The exchange of Indianapolis
has never been characterized by iilegiti-
mate speculative operations, It's men,
bers generally holding down 10 transactions
in only what they are actually handling.
Since the reorganization OF last September a
new life and spirit rave been developed,
which the action of yesterday can not fail to
intensity.

Welsh, and, M doubt, IL wiz soon be done
into Gaelic. It will then be read in alfthe d.
alects of Great Britain, as It slready j. "a all
other languages OF Europe. And 70 is
hardly possible, without some such speeial
action on the part of the pope as that to
which L have alluded, that the agitation can
fail to come to be a serioas popular issue.
Some, indeed, believe the pamphlet meant as
a preliminary to Gladstone's heading the
party of general church disestaSiish-
ment. By his article on ritualism and
hlS hostility 20 D.sraeli's putting
down" policy, he has brought
20 his sid the ritualistic wing q the
church, a wing which it is known is SER
iously disaflected toward all state control of
religion. BY this pamphlet he has fred the
heart OF the great mass OF dissenters who are
prepared to cOndone his half confessed err
rors in the education bill because Of bis ef-
fective blow at "popery." The Catholics,
who claim TO represent 100000 c. her
msjesty's subjects, are already bitterly pro-
testing against his OK er being first mir lister
again. By so doing they provoke a conflict
in which they will certainly be worsted, II
Gladstone should have courage to sei-e the
weapon OF disestablishment.

tain term of imprisonment is required by
law but this is
NOT NECESSARY.
Some people think that the school should be
self sustaining, but il was not founded with
any idea of making the Boys earn their living
while committed 20 its care. Few penal in
stitutions are self-sustaining even where the
inmates are adults and spend all their time
in mechanical pursuits, and little atten-
ton given to reformatory discipline,
which is the main idea OF this scnool.
Most of our bows are under the age OF four
teen and, having been raised in the streets.
are unused to work. Some boys go back TO
their former ways after leaving MS, but this
could be avoided If Christian homes could
be found for them to enter. A large percent
age, however, remain steadfast TO their
teachings. A record is kept by which we
can tell the present status of every boy who
has gone from us. We ought to have a me-
chanical department in which to teach the
trades. The superintendent gives a full &C
count of the new buildings erected and
farm and garden labOrs, as well as the snoe
shop. tailor shop and brick yard. During
the year the schools have r~e-organized into
eight grades so arranged as TO give TO each
boy three hours and a half of study per day.
We need more land as well as a~pproprla-
ions TOR undertakings. Gas and steam
should also be introduced. The report
closes with a few words OF congratulat1on on
the past work and hope for the future.

Readers of the Sentinel will remember
the shock their nerves sustained upon read

weeks since of an ~unprovoked wife murder
at Cloverdale. Gorge Martin, firing of his
young wife, shot her dead as she sat in the
chair of a neighbor with their child in her
arms. Then be lied to the village and
feigned insanity. He narrowly escaped
lyncbing and was lodged in Jail at Green
castle. On preliminary examination he
plead not guilty, though there
was a plain case against him.
He was remsnded to Jail and there remained
in solitary confinement until yesterday,
when, alter consulting with counsel, ne con-
Guided he would confess the crime by
pleading guilty, and then throw hirusell
upon the clemency of the court. He there.

SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT
WHAT 1T SAYS.

The class of boys which has been admitted
to the institution during the past year has
not, in the main, been what could be prop
erly called criminals, but they are
the ''black Sheep of large families.
They are Of that class which such an insti-
tuition as this is intended to reform. In the
earlier years the inmates were from that
class which had acquired fixed habits of
criminality and whose permanent reforma-
ton was almost hopeless. The
experience Of the year has been salts
factory. asd the officers look backward to
the past work with pleasure, and forward
upon the months to come with hope. Peo-
pfc are coming to understand more clearly
the relations of the institution to society,
and few now regard it as a juvenile peni-
tentiarv. Occasionally boys are sent here
by courts OF justice which think that z Ger.

THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE..

WHAT THE EXCHANGES SAY ABOUT THE
DEDICAToRY EXERCISES AND THE CITY OF
CoNCENTRIC CIRCLES GENERALLY.
The opening of our Chamber of Commerce
is attracting the attention of the Sentinel
exchanges, in and out of the state. OF the
MANY editorials upon the subject, the Sem
tinel selects the following from the Terre
Haute Gazette as a fair sample;
Our sister city of Indianapolis, in the growth
and prosperity of which, as our capital, we
take a just pride, dedicated it's new chamber
Of building yesterday and last
night with impressive and appropriate cere-
monies. Addresses were made, of course
nothing grand is ever lone in America with
out ~speeches-in which the glories of In
dianapolis and Indiana were extolled in
appropriate phrase. The building, the
completion OF which was the occasion of so
much rejoicing, is a noble structure, unless
the cut of it, which appears in this morn
ing's Sentinel, is drawn from the artists
fancy of what it should be, rather than from
ton ceremonies was the speech IF William
p. Fishback, who, while claiming for
indianapolis great advantages as a
business and distributing point, did
not tail TO give just credit to other cities OF
the state. He makes especial mention OF
the great advantages of Terre Haute as a
manufacturing point for anything pertain
ing to iron, in all which wide ranges of bus
mess it is impossible to deny that our own
Prairie City is without a peer. Destiny
points Enthusiastically to Terre Haute as the
newer and greater PitIsburg of the West.
Mr.. Fishback very justly says In his speech;
81 think we have
IN TOO UGH DRAGGING
about u ability to make pig iron here. The
forces of nature are against us in hat direc-
ton. Pig iron will be made in Indiana at
the points where the iron ore and the coal
can be brought together at the least expense.
These localities for the present are found on
the Wabash and in the coal fields of the
southwest. Five cents per bushel difference
in the cost of coal makes a difference oil
$25, 600 per annum in the expense OF
operating a single blast furnace. Atrain OF
coal cars runs down hill from Brazil to Terre
Hsute is miles. To indianapolis il is a stiff
! pull up hill. "a miles. Until this inequality
is gotten rid of in some way, we had best
turn our attention to something else." HI
concluded this branch of his subject by very
sensibly saying, in phrase not unlike RIr
Van Wrinkle, we are and shall be better
off without it anyhow" We car
very heartily commend every ut
What he saws of the superior anC
unrivalled facilities of Terre Haute as a point
for manufacturing iron is eminently true
but no less true than all he and his brother
orators said in praise of Indianapolis. Oul
state capital is a great and gro wing city. II
is the great railway center of the continent
The business men are full of the life anC
energy which has built up and made pros
porous the great West. Terre Haute desire:
to emulate and initiate her; envies not, bur
~reioices in her growth and prosperity, for is
she not our OWL u Incompatible capita
city?
