While the meeting at Akron was a
grand success 30 far az eminent speakers
and n great attendance were concerned
the manner In which visiting clubs were
received and cared for was a shame and
"A disgrace TO the local Republican or

after having travelled from afty TO one
hundred miles to make the great meet

their torches, with not even u cup OF

CIYIL-sERYICE REFORM.
An Effort to Extend Its Provisions to Post
masters and Collectors.

An Effort to Extend Its Provisions to POST
masters and Collectors.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, April 16-There are several
members of Congress who have lately devoted
a great deal of time to the formulation of some
bill which shall extend the civil service act to
the postmasterS, collectors and other officers.
But up to the present time all their schemes
have led to no result. The civl-service com
mittee of the House has endeavored to evolve
some system which will do away with the
present plan of appointing postmasters through
the favor of congressman. But they have, as
yet, thrown no light upon the dark problem.
The idea of electing postmasters has suggested
itself to the committee but the idea has died in
the bud. The Constitution expressly provides
that those offices shall be appointed by the Presi-
dent, and in order to overcome this objection a
constitutional amendment would be necessary.
The proposition to throw the appointments open
to competitive examination is not regarded as
feasible A bill was recently introduced providing
for a commission to be appointed i'll each State,
whose duty it should be to advise the President
in making selections This scheme was acted
upon adversely by the civil-service committee,
and will not be heard from again. The great OBJ
lection to the commission plan lies in the ex-
pense attached to it. 1t would simply allow the
President to appoint about hundred additional
Office holders whose salary would increase the
expense account at least 5000 900 year, the only
result Of which would be to transfer the select
ing power from the congressman to the COM
missioners. The best minds in and out of Con-
gress have devoted great deal of thought and
care to this perplexing question, but yet the
solution of the problem has not been discovered.

THE TARIFF DEBATE.
Dull Talk, to Which Very Few People Pay


Dull Talk, to Which Very Few People Pay
Attention.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WAsHINGToN, April 16-'T have no idea
when the debate on the tariff bill will close;
have given no thought to fixing time for call
ing the previous question, said Colonel Morri-
son tonight to the Journal correspondent when
asked to what time he hoped to limit the debate.
There is prevalent impression that effort
will be made to limit debate under fortnight
yet, and that month may elapse before debate
upon the general question is terminated. 1t is
thought by many that, unless some compromise
is determined upon, about as much time will be
consumed on the proposed amendments as upon
the main question. The debate to-day was dull
and only about half the members were pres
emit While Mr.. Russell, of Massachusetts,
spoke, they lowered about him, Democrats with
Republicans, and listened attentively and quietly
while he told of the suffering that would follow
among operators in the New England mills
should the Morrison bill become law. He
painted pictures so glowing against Mr.. Nor
rison's pet that no one thought of interrupting
him.
Mr.. Blount, of Georgia, had not talked twenty
minutes before the house was cleared of all ex-
cept about forty members. One by one they
dropped out, so that when he spoke his last SEN
tence there were scarcely a dozen seats occu-
pied. There is talk of compromise on the bill.
1t is said Mr.. Morrison hopes that as the debate
progresses the feeling that has been engendered
upon the part of the Randall mon will subside,
and that his bill will pass amended alsoto either
abolish or cut in half the tax on tobacco.
The Pennsylvania delegation held confer
ence, tonight and agreed to do nothing to cut
short, or in any way curtail the fullest tariff
discussion. They will let Mr.. Morrison have
complete control of that There are now ninety
eight members booked to speak.

buy that amount of oil at the prices quoted
would require about 500, OOO 900, thought will
hardly be claimed that that amount of money
was involved, or anything like it. A years
trade in New York city alone, taking last Mon
days business" as an average, would involve
no less than 81, 199 900, 900, or twice as much
as the national debt at its highest figure. An
idea of the magnitude of gambling carried on
in America may be had from these figures
and an explanation of why it is so hard to en-
act laws against this evil. Of course, no such
sum is at stake, but millions of dollars are an
nually lost and won on the ups and downs of
oil, and by men who never legally bought a
barrel of oil in their lives

GOVERNOR PORTER, with his usual good
sense and clear ideas Of proprety, declines to
be q delegate to the national convention be-
cause he holds an executive office, an office to
which men of all parties look for an impartial
and non partisan exercise of authority and
power. This same rule applies with equal
force to officers of the State and national adj
minstrations, and all such officers should de-
cline to engage in purely partisan politics.
The offices of senators and representatives
in Congress, however, are political offices, and
the incumbents are the head and front of
their respective parties in their States and dis
tricts Senator Harrison is the only Repub
ican Senator from Indiana, and is the official
political representative Of the party in this
State and is not only entitled to- but should
receive the Endorsement of the party for
all his political acts by being made the
representative of the party, so long as he rep
resents it. No one will question the fidelity
of Senator Harrison, nor say that he is not in
every respect the true and tried exponent of
Indiana Republicanism. 1t is due to him
that he have the Endorsement of the conven-
ton to be held to-day. This is an acknowl-
edgment that is accorded to senators from
other States by their conventions, as instance
Senators Hoar, Cameron, Logan, Conkling,
Hale, Frye, Garfield and others, in the con
ventions of 1880, and the selection of Senator
Cullom in Illinois yesterday The Indiana
Republicans can do 10 less than to indorse
their only senator by this sort of recognition
of his services and position.
