Interview in New York Paper.
What do you think of the prospects of the
Republicans for the coming campaignl"
''They never were better than now Five
months ago l believed the Republicans were
facing certain defeat. did not think they had
any chance but the Democrats have remedied
all that The Democratic party can always be
relied upon in the case of an emergency to give
the Republicans victory. Their fight in the
House over the tariff has made a doubtful cleo
ton certain to the Republicans. They have been
warning upon the business interests in their
work in the House The result will be that a
number of Democratic business men will con-
tribute to the defeat of their own party rather
than encourage free-trade tendencies The Re
publicans will have no difficulty in electng any
one they shall nominate. There are two States,
however, where there would be some feeling
against Arthur. In his own State there is a
great GOODNESS among some of his old friends,
which would create apathy in the case of his
nomination while in Ohio the Garfield element
would not heartily support him"

Political sentiment in Indiana,

Washington Interview with Hon. John IL Baker
Ex-Congressman John H. Baker, of Indiana,
who is spending few days here, was asked to-
day about the presidential sentiment in Indiana.
He said he had never known time when there
was so little talk and so little interest felt in the
subject Blaine had a great many friends and
Arthur was strong among the business men; but
there was no capitalization of sentiment, and
the people were only anxious that the strongest
man should be nominated They had no fear of
securing good majority in Indiana for the Re
publican ticket, but the necessity of securing a
nominee who could carry New York was every
where recognized, and Indiana would press the
claims of no favorite. He would probably be a
delegate to the national convention himself, but
had no idea who he would vote for He had no
friends to reward and no enemies to punish, but
would vote for the most available man. Mr..
Baker thinks Congressman Cafkins will receive
the Republican nomination for Governor of In
diana, and will be elected

To the Editor Of the indianapolis Journal
Why do fanatics persist in mixing temperance
with politics! Temperance is purely moral
question, and it has no more place in politics
than stealing, or murder, or perjury has. Law
can no more make a man sober or eradicate his
love of intoxcants, than it can eradicate pro
pensty to steal, or lie or kill. Only moral ap
phances can reach the inner man and reform
him. Nevertheless the world has for ages legis
lated on all these moral questions, in so far as
they affect society 1t aims to lessen the evils
that grow out of drunkenness and stealing and
murder, and adultery by what are called crimi-
nal laws and there is prevailing opinion that
there is less public manifestation of native and
cultivated depravity along these several lines,
than there would be but for these criminal laws
Prohibition has nothing to do with temperance.
Prohibition is purely municipal arrangement,
and relates wholly to the drink traffic and not
at all to the love or habit of drinking except where
this love or habit touches the social moral and
economic interests of society, just as the crimi
nal laws relate to theft and adultery and murder
when they. passing out from the man, touch the
interests of society. Because gambling houses
and houses of prostitution and dens of thieves
and counterfeters. with their implements of
crime, are believed to foster crime, they are pro
hibted and Prohibitionists are laboring to have
tipping houses put under the same ban; just
that, and nothing more. Prohibition is not tenn
perance temperance is not prohibition One is
purely moral question, the other purely polit
ical question Moral men will never cease to
labor by every possible moral agency to promote
temperance, whatever may be their views of pro
hbition; and political economists will be as earn
est and ceaseless in their labors for prohibition
as they are to protect their property from depre-
dation by any other agency. Z. L. SEE.

81 have recently been looking over the politi
cal horizon. In fact, to be plain. have been
looking up the machine of which you hear so
much. And it is amusing subject. One of
these vrtuous political spasms is Selling upon
the body polite There is very general desire
to desert machine politics and start some other
kind where the Teller that is crowded will have
more room to swing himself Every acknowl
edged political hack in the country who feels
that his days are liable to be numbered is
down on the machine He affects to for
get that he is 'machinemade' himself, and
it is the cohesive and sklfully directed energies
of the machine that has made him all that he
is That it is that same machine that has
made and held together the party that has
boosted him into prominence. He might cast
his optics in the direction of the Soudan and
notice there how a handful of men operating as
a machine withstood successfully the assault of
ten times their number In fact the world does
not creep backwards, and if machine politics
have been found necessary for a partys success,
you may depend upon it that the man who at
tempts to smash existing machines does so only
that he may start little machine of his own.

New York Special
Mr.. John A. McSorley, the custom house
broker who for many years has had charge Of
the impertations of works of art of an ecclesi-
astical nature, was busy yesterday in preparing a
huge painting of Pope Leo XIII, for shipment to
Baltimore. This was the first glimpse of the
painting that has been offered on this side the
Atlantic. The canvass is eight feet by six and n
half and the frame is of broad gilt. The Pope
is represented by E. Bou, the artist. standing
by the side of table on which he rests volume
of st. Thomas Aquinas which he holds in his
left hand manuscript is in the right hand
which may be read LEO P. p. Kill He
wears a surplice and cassock of heavy white
silk, the former fringed with broad lace. A
crimson mantelette trimmed with ermine covers
his shoulders. Behind him is a large carved
chair, apA in the background are the folds of a
crimson curtain. The picture is not only life
size, but it is declared by those who have seen
the Pope to be lifelike and an excellent repre-
sentation in every way. 1t was exposed to view
for only twenty minutes and then was boxed up
again. 1t passes the customs without charge
When the council of American bishops meets in
Baltimore, next November, the painting will be
formally presented, and will Afterwards hang in
the Baltimore cathedral.

General Gresham as Lawyer and Politician.

Morris Ross, in Philadelphia Times.
1t is difficult to give general estimate of
Gresham as lawyer, while a particular esti-
mate would be but the testimony of admiring
friends or vengeful enemies, each equally worth
less His law practice never, so far as l know
was prominent enough for general estimate
In its early years it was in the little country
village of Corydon, which by the last census had
not 800 inhabitants In its later years it passed
into the small town of New Albany, which, in
1880, had apopulation of 16,423, and he ceased
practice there fifteen years ago. 1t is just to
say that he was fair lawyer, as any one know
ing his force of character would feel As
a judge he has been good one. 1t is conceded
by members of the bar who are unfriendly to
Gresham that his aims were high and his inten-
tions honest; that he manifested at times too
much Impotence and had tendency to ''cut
across lots and jump at conclusions, so that by
natural temperament he was not perhaps what
could be called an ideal judge. but that he was
ideal In the integrity of his purpose.
AS public speaker it is again difficult to esti-
mate General Gresham, for his long service on
the bench has afforded him opportunity for so
