THE WEST.
Indiana,

Hendricks and the Governorshtp.
 INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 20.-Ex-Senator Hen dricks' attention has been called to a state ment telegraphed from Washington to the effect that he is desirous of being the Demo. cratic candidate for Governor in 1884 with 8 view to Cabinet position. He said: "A year ago a good friend of mine asked me if I would consent in case it shall be thought ex- pedient to be 8 candidate. I told him then. as I would now, that I would not consent. It cannot become 8 question of duty. To me an election as Governor would not become 8 stepping stone to federal secretaryship, it would be a stepping downward. An Indiana Governor consults but the law of the people in respect to his duty. He experiences none of the humiliation to which any officer is ex posed who holds office at the will and subject to the approval of another. A faithful Gov ernor is in no danger of losing his character or being placed in the equivocal position of one who is liable to be called upon for his resignation. Without further explanation I will be obliged to you if you will correct the error of this Washington correspondent. It is not pleasant to be misstated to promote the fortunes of any person." This is under stood to be notice to the public that Mir. Hendricks is still in the hands of his friends. Mr. Hendricks is steadily convalescing and expects at early day to be attending to business.

 The Scared suitan-IGis Palace Turned
 Into Fortress.
 CoNsTANTINoPLE, Dec. 2O.-Notwithstand- ing the reported denial of the Sultan to 8 political parsonage that he was in daily fear of assassination, recent movements in the in terior of his palace of Yildiz show that he is taking the most extraordinary precautions for his personal safety. More than hun dred Circassian ladies of the imperial harem suspected of being accomplices of their kins- men of the body guard which was recently disbanded have been exiled to different parts Of the empire. The Circassan ele- ment Is just now an object of considera- ble distrust at Yildiz. Tho life led by the Sultan is said to be terrible. Yildiz itself resembles fortress rather than pal ace. His Majesty carries a loaded revolver constantly with him. He scarcely leaves the shelter of his harem, and partakes of little nourishment for fear of poison being mix ed with his food. With the sovereign in this state 1t is not to be wondered at that the people arc discouraged and discontented and that reform in any shape is despaired of

 Cream Milk Skim MILK.
 A prominent dealer in milk near this city has lately given US some of his views in ref erence to the question of the sale of pure milk. lie believes that the city should have an inspector Of milk, and that every milk man should pay license, have his name and mum Der on the wagon, and also that if he sells skim milk the fact should be designated on the wagon. Any dealer who sells pure milk will not object to having it known, and while skim milk is good in it's place it is not cream milk and should not be sold as such He is also in favor of the test of milk by the lactometer, the same in New York and Hartford There is State law to the above effect, and in Hartford the inspector can stop milkman anywhere selling milk and test the quality of it. The people of Hart ford like the plan very much, and we'll they might with such body of fresh water as the Connecticut river close at hand.
