INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, September H.
The local sporting fraternity is now agog
over the latest sensation in the shape Of
horsef1esh, and if the tales told are true
it is certainly wonder. John Martin,
blacksmith at Noblesville, twenty
miles north of here, is the owner of the
horse, 6-year-old brown stallion. He
accepted an old mare in payment for a
debt, and she foaled the horse. The
sire is not known. Martin did not
know what prize he had, and since the
animal was broken he has been driven
to the owners buggy recently. Martin
was led to believe he might venture to
enter county fair with some promise of
success, but when he applied at Nobles-
vile and elsewhere he was hooted out.
Last week he was admitted to county
fair in northern Indiana, and to every
body's surprise captured the prize
With ease. Last Friday, there
being nobody to enter the
Noblesville race, Martin was told that if
he could beat 2:30 with his old brute he
might have the stake. Without any pre-.
paration he drove into the RUG and &C
complished mile in 2:24 on hals-
mile track. The horse has never been
trained nor even taken care OF more
than comfortably. Ten thousand dol
lars has been offered for him,
and admirers of the animal
offer to back him in a race fol
SIS, 900 against Hare's Mamb1ino, with q
record of 2:16. DR.. Brown, learning
the history of the horse, went up to No
blesville, hunted out the old mare which
foaled the horse, bought her for $1OO,
and two days later, on the reputation OF
her son, sold her for 5000.

The Cover ment Telegraph.

The question. Ought the National
Government b. 7 and control the tel
egraph?" has bt en addressed to a num-
try by the Erie Dispatch Geo. T.
Edmunds, President pro tenn Of the
United States Senate, replies that the
government has long since seen the
necessity of a telegraph service in con
nectIon with the POstOf1ice Depart
ment and there is strong probabili-
ty that Congress at an early date will
take action in the matter. John
Campbell, head of the Telegraphic
Brotherhood, answers that he can see
no benefit to be derived by the op-
orators from the change if they are
not assured of just wages. Governor
Butler, Of Massachusetts,, wants the
government to control the telegraph,
but not to buy any telegraph plant
now in existence. Ex-senator David
Davis, through his private secretary,
says that, under certain restrictions,
the government should control the
telegraph as it does the mails. Editor
Henry WattersOn is afraid that to
place the commercial transactions and
the Geographic news in the hands of
a party in power would be, particular
ly in case of war, a dangerous expert
ment. He ipclines to a less sweeping
measure than absolute purchase and
control. Congressman John A. Kas-
son, of Iowa, thinks that under a gov
eminent telegraph system, admins
tered as is the Postoffice department
under the Republicans, the operator
would be well treated and strike
avoided. Ex-Governor Cornell, of
New York, who holds Western I'm
ion stock, regards as communistic the
cry to give the government control Of
the telegraph. Ex-Speaker Randall
thinks that the government has al
ready sufficient power in it's hands.
The adding OF 25, 600 additional en-
ployees to the government service for
spoilsmen to quarrel over would, he
says, be a step in the wrong direction.
Inventor Edison's reply to the question
Of the Dispatch is No
