Mr.. Schmuck and His Street-Car Letter.
From the Indiana Tribune. Last Evening.
1.-THE Telegraph begins it's defense of Mr..
Schmuck with a very mean insinuatiOn. 1t
says the Republicans are trying to make the
street-car question the deciding one IN the COM
ing election. and then continues: For this pur-
pose a letter was written to Messrs. MeMaster
and schmuck asking whether the candidates for
mayor are in favor OF the citizens controlling
the streets or whether a corporation shall do so;
and further, whether they are in favor of the
new sl eet-ear company
ave do not think nard of the Telegraph be-
cause it does not tell its dozen readers that the
Tribune sent the letter in question. But the in
sinuation that the letter was caused TO he
written-by which the Telegraph evidently
means that the Republicans caused us to do so
requires us TO make a truthful statement.
We have no reason TO leave such attacks I'M
answered as the Telegraph may have. We are
not in the pay of a marty; we never had
any assistance from any party, and
never asked for it. Ever since the
strest-car question has been before
the citizens of Indianapolis the Tribune has
fought with all its power against the streeJ-oar
monopoly. The Tribune has repeatedly de-
clared that it would support no candidate for
council who will vote against a new street-ear
company. 1t has repeatedly protested against
the reelection of those councilmen who voted
against the new company. The mayor, in case
of a tie, will have the deciding vote, AID for this
reason the Tribune addressed the letters to the
two. candidates for mayor. The answer OF Mr..
scbmuck was surprising to us, as we die not
think 1t possible that a candidate could write
such a suicidal letter. We give both the letters.
Here follow the letters.

have reported to him the result of the xamin
ton. The candidate standing first is W.. V. Jud-
son, of this city, whose percentage was 81.
The second is F. M. Saxton, of Bengal, Shelby
county, whose percentage was 812. The
committee recommended that MIR. Judson be ap-
pointed to the cadetship, and that Mr.. Saxton be
designated as the alternate.
The examination upon the four branches of
history, geography, grammar and arithmetic
was written. There were fifty questions upon
each subject. The candidates were required to
sign Inc answers by some assumed name or
motto, and to place their real names in an en-
velope, marked by such assumed name or motto.
The envelopes were sealed by the candidates,
and were left in the hands of Mr.. Noble C. Butler
to be opened when the committee had deter
mined upon the standing of the candidates.

dence, and the record shows that it is more

Mr.. RAPPAPoRT, in his letter to the candi-
dates for mayor asking whether, if elected,
they would vote for or againstthe incorpora-
ton of the new street railway company,
said:
"We ask you, respectfully, to answer this
question, and in case of a refusal we consid-
er you an opponent of the new company"
Mr., Schmuck replied:
81 do not think it proper to answer the
question whether [ am in favor OF the new
or Metropolitan Street Railway Company"
Mr.. Schmuck therefore willingly assumes
the position of an opponent of the new COM
pany. Mr., McMaster in his answer, says:
can heartily say that I am in favor of
admitting it. : y = If an opportunity
offers, 1 shall vote in favor of the new COM
pany.'
Here is a plain question, plainly and I'M
equivocally answered. The thousands of
people OF Indianapolis, who are determined
that monopoly shall not control it's streets
will not vote for ian opponent OF the new
company"

THE acceptance addresses of the two can
didates for mayor gives, in brief, not only
the spirit which animates them, but
also the spirit which animates the parties
they represent, and will be the guiding prin-
ciple of the administration of affairs either
under the one or the other. Mr.. Schmuck
said, in acknowledging his nomination;
81 am always willing to lend aid to the
Democratic party, and am ready to accept
the compliment you have paid me by noml-
mating me for the highest Office in your gift.
1 feel deeply moved by the testimonial OF
your regard. L will do my best, if elected,
to fill the Office of mayor in a way that Will
bring success to the Democratic party"
In contrast with this, read what Mr.. Nc
Master said:
"If l an elected to the Office for which you
have Just nominated me, | will endeavor to
discharge the duties for the best interests OF
the entire city, believing that whatever is
for the best interest of the entire community
is for the best interests of every portion OF
that community"
A real Democrat, such as Mr.. Schmuck is,
couldn't have spoken honestly in any other
STRAIN than he did; and so a true Republic
can, as Mr.. McMaster is, could not have
spoken otherwise than he did. Democracy is
for Democracy first, last, and all the time.
Witness its record when in power in this
city in the years 1874 and 1875, in the last
Legislature, and in its disgraceful raid upon
the benevolent institutions. The Republic
can party ~endeavors to carry on its admins
tration for the best interests of the whole
people. Witness its record in the city, State
and nation. Reduced taxation, faithful ap-
plication of the revenues, and the payment
of debts. You do not like this man or that
man? Granted. You do not like spots on
the sun, but because of that you do not ignore
the general benefit of the sunshine. There
are some things we could wish different, but
they are of the smallest possible import
ance when it comes to an estimate of the
general spirit of the two parties.

MysteriomsIv Missing.

Yesterday, Charles M. A. Hess, of No. 625
Broadway, reported to the police authorities
that Lena Burke, a girl employed as a domestic
in his family for several years, had left the
house on Sunday, ostensibly to return shortly,
since which time no tidings Of her have been
heard by the family. She left all of her clothes
and personal effects behind, except the suit
which she wore at the time of her departure.
Mr.. Hess speaks of her as a girl of excellent
character, and is at a loss to account for her
mysterious absence.
