The Indiana Democrats Yesterday
nominated an excellent ticket and adopted
platform which, touching the liquor
question, must secure entire unity. We
have not believed that a convention OF
Democrats would so far depart from party
principles as to ignore the right os the
people to vote freely on any amendment to
State constitution, and in declaring
against all eoercive legislation designed
professedly to make men sober and moral,
and in declaring that the amendment pro-
hibiting the manufacture and sale Of spir-
ituous liquors should be submitted to the
popular vote at a general election, the
Democrats followed time-honored party
action. Any other course would have been
a departure from principle certainly very
censurable. In declaring against prohibi.
tory enactments, the Democratic party IL
falsely charged with being whisky par
ty" and Opposed to sobriety aud good
morals" by the Republican press, but a
charge of that description from such a
source is not worthy of notice. The facls
Of the history OF prohibitory legislation
prove conclusively that such legislation
does not work moral change in the indi-
vidual or minimize appreciably the decay
of individual or public morality. The
other noticeable feature OF the Indiana
platform is the tariff plank, and in declar-
ing for a tariff for revenue, and one which
will foster industries and prevent the crea-
tion Of monopolies, the Indiana Demo.
Gratis are in accord with the utterances of
the National Democratic conventions Of
1876 and 1880 on this subject. The plank
opposes a monopoly-creating protective
tariff, war tariff, robber tariff such "a
is in operation in our country to-day. We
are content with the Indiana affirmation Of
yesterday, for tariff which prevents the
the creation Of mOnopolies is tariff for
revenue only, such as went into operation
under Democratic auspices in 1916, and
was remarkably advantageous to the manu-
featuring industries Of the countrY.-tCou-

1t has often been alleged that the medi-
cal profession was a perilous one among
Indian tribes, since, on the failure to cure
a patient, his relatives and friends occa-
sionally kill the doctor. A Spokane, on
the klamath reservation called in a white
medicine man the other day, to prescribe
for his sich child. The lad died, and the
Indian promptly squared the account by
shooting dead the unlucky physician, and
then quitting the reservation in disgust.
Were this Indian fashion to spread among
white men, there would be a rapid dimu-
milton in the crowds Of graduates that now

schools into the avenues of practice

Prehistoric Races of America.

In his lecture before the New York
Academy of Sciences, the other even
ing, on the "Prehistoric Races on the
American Continent" Prof. John S.
Newberry furnished, perhaps, the finest
and most lucid summary that has yet
been given of the present state of our
verified scientific information as to the
mound builders, the house builders,
the Aztecs of the South, and the condi-
ton of the arts of civilization among
these representatives of lost types. So
many ingenious romances have been
elaborated by speculative antiquaries as
to the origin of these races and their
possible relation to the prehistoric types
of the Old World, that such a resume
as DIR. Newberry gave of what is actually
ascertained or fairly inferable from the
data of mounds, pottery, Inscriptions,
textile fabrics, and other remains, is
peculiarly valuable to the general stu
dent, who, bewildered by speculative
theories cleverly interlaced with facts,
aud sadly puzzled by remote inferences
stated as verified information, finds
himself without starting point for the
formation of an opinion. While not
sharing in the fantastic enthusiasm that
places these races in advance of the
contemporary civilizations of the pre-
historic races of Europe and Asia, and
while taking no part In the endeavor to
trace relation between them, DIR. New
berry comedies their progress in certain
arts and the magnificent scale upon
which their public works were con-
structed. He regards the mound build
ere of the Valley of the Mississippi,
among whom the symbolical form APP
pears to have been neglected in the
construction of their works of sepul-
ture, and the races further west who
built in the forms of birds and now ex-
tinct animals, as belonging to the same
primitive stock, now probably repre-
sented by few tribes of Western In
dians-Indians so called for want of
better name, but differing in ancestral
descent from the savage hordes to whom
that term has been appropriated as
widely as the Arab differs from the Per-

A BOOrish Official.

Lucy Hamilton Hooper, in a recent
Paris letter, mentions a number of
cases of breaches of etiquette by Ameri-
can officers and diplomats abroad. She
says:

in a very handsome dinr er was got mp
by prominent English official in
honor of his newly arrived American

in Paris, be that fully understood), and
the American official and his wife never
made their appearance. The host and
hostess waited dinner for over an hour,
but the guests never came, neither did
they send any regret or apology. Meet
ing the American few days later, the
English gentleman requested the cause
OF his absence. 'Oh, my wife and | had
been out sightseeing and shopping ali
day, was tEe answer, 'and when night
came we felt too tired to go ont, SO we
just dineI quietly in our own room, and
went to bed wor der how many din
ner parties that Englishman will feel
inclined to get up for American officials
hereafter? However, these instances
are so widely the exception as to be al
most unheard of. Still, all Americans
in Europe would like such instances
never to occur, so that the general high
reputation of our officials and their
wives for social courtesy and culture
might never find single exception"

The First Child.

A Montana correspondent says:-In a
little cabin far up the gulch the first
white child in Montana was born. The
girl-wife had followed her lover from
the States, and, Drawing every hardship
for his sake, had at last found him.
When the baby came the gulch went on
a weeks spree. Gold in handfuls was
thrown by the rough miners into the
little ones cradle 1ntil it was almost
smothered under the yellow nuggets.
One poor fellow wanted to hear it cry,
and when the baby piped up the miner
wept, saying he had not heard sound
like that for years. How the rough,
big-bearded men crowded around that
little child, one asking if he might lift
it, and third the privilege of seeing it
fed out of bottle.
When it was sick, business in the
gulch was almost entirely suspended,
and nobody corl think of doing any,
thing until "tlo bs,. was better.
These were the good old days of gulch
mining i'll Montana, when -four was one
dollar pound, sugar and coffee seventy
five cents, dried apples ten dollars a
gallon, brooms five dollars apiece, tacks
seventy-ive cents paper, calico one
dollar per yard, and when a miner could
take out sixteen dollars per day with a
chance of a rich nugget turning up

MY dear fellow" said Lavender,
"it's all very nice to talk about econo-

Identity OF the Fish.

When the accounts of the dead fish
being found near the Gulf Stream first
began to appear Professor Baird sus.
pected that they might be the same as
the remarkable new species discovered
blythe United States Fish Commission
in 1870 and 1871 off the southern coast
of New England. An inspection has
proved this to be the case. The fish is
known as the tile. The commission
found this fish to ne one of the most
abundant in the sea, occurring for one
thousand miles along the western edge
of the Gulf Stream in water from seven
ty-five fathoms upward, and in tenn
perature from forty. to fifty degrees.
The specimens sent to Mr.. Blackford,
of Fulton Market, New York, were dis.
tributed by him to well known dealers,
who say they were very good, though
possessing slight popularity that is
not agreeable to some palates. The
fish is shaped something like tautoe
and is one of the most brilliantly beau
tiful of American fishes, the sides being
marked with bright gamboge colors and
the fins presenting all the hues of the
rainbow. In size the fish range from
five to fifty or sixty pounds. They
are found to bite readily at troll and
large numbers are caught in a short
time. What effect this mortality will
have on the numbers in the future Pro-
fessor Baird says is difficult to tell. The
quantities of this species of fish floating
on the Atlantic coast show that they
are one of the most abundant species.
The cause of the mortality is not known
to Professor Baird, for as yet it can only
be copJectured. He says that there is
nothing analogous in the cause which
has killed so many salmon in the last
few years, as there are no sores or other
indications of bad condition. He more
over states that the phenomenon as to
the quantity of dead fish first manifested
itself after the occurrence in that region
of one of the most violent ocean storms
known for several years. He suggests
that possibly the fish may have been
killed mechanically by the motion of
the waves. Another suggestion is that
the mortality has been due to the earth
quake influence. At any rate he re-
CARDS the problem as quite an interest
ing one.
ne iuebtLOu udS OlGcu DSeH aSk6u,
said Professor Baird, "of persons who
believe in the existence of sea serpents
and other marine monsters, why these
are not more frequently seen. In reply
it can be asked why magnificent food
fish, reaching sometimes sixty pounds
and upward, in numbers equaling the
Goldfish, occurring in region of the
very thickest path between Europe aud
America, and at a depth of only few
hundred feet, should have remained
absolutely unknown to both fisherman
and the man of science until the year
1879, and only brought conspicuously
into notice by catastrophe that may
not occul more than once in a CEN
tury.'
"Then you believe in the existence
OF sea serpent? 2" your CORES pondent

be sea serpents and other marine

THE GOLDEN SUNSET.

The golden sea its mirror spreads
Beneath the golden skies,
And but narrow strip between,
OF land and shadow lies.
The cloud-like rocks. the rock-like clouds
Dissolved in glory float,
Ap1 midway of the radiant flood,
Hangs silently the boat.
The sea is but another sky,
The sky sea as well,
And which is earth and which is Reaven,
The eye can scarcely tell.
So when for us life's evening hour,
Soft fading shall descend,
May glory, born OF earth and Heaven,
The earth and Heaven bend.
Flooded with peace the spirits float,
With silent rapture glow,
Till where earth ends and Heaven begins,
The soul shall scarcely know.
