LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Keep the Herdics Clean.

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal:
1t might be well to suggest to the new Herdic
company that the public have been more an
noyed and insulted by the extreme uncleanness
of the street cars than even by the irregularity
Of the street-car service, Hence nothing can
conduce to the popularity of the Herdic service
more than extreme care to have the inside of
the coaches scrupulously clean. If the windows
are well washed before they lose their clean,
clear look, the mat On the hoor shaken well
twice day, and the floor to its remetest corner
swept clean before it is replaced, and the wood
work wiped clean of dust every day once or
twice, and washed when necessary, the ladies of
indianapolis will not shun the vehicles, and the
gentlemen will not grudge the five cents which
they pay to sit in clean, wholesome place
Your subscriber has taken many long walk
rather than enter the filthy cars belonging to
our street-car service, and when obliged to ride
in them, she has often wondered whether Mr..
whether he realizes the possibilities of good
broom, soap and water. s. F. A

have repeatedly seen statements going the rounds
of the newspapers and which have been copied into
your columns from the New York Times to this pur
port viz that the version of King James is that to
which clergyman of the Episcopal Church has
bound himself by his ordination OATH

chooses to do so. All this is mistake The version of
King James not in existence when said promise

originals and no impeachment of translation would
of itself subject clergyman to trial for heresy but
and above this the clergyman promises always
set forth the doctrines of Holy Scripture this church
hath received the same. To twist and turn the mean
ing of the Scriptures out of harmony with the prayer
book and to give them meanings contrary to the tor
rent of testimony among the great dvnes of the prm
tive church and of the Church of England is. there

government, college, bank, any other inpor-
business would be considered honest if he should

would rather give SO to see him in Hamlet" than

compare him with Booth and great actors whom

He is not Booth, etc, but because he is great

The janitorial work at the court house as it is
now done is nuisance. Mops and brooms, sweep

ness hours, to the annoyance and inconvenience
of those who are called to the court house, and
work that should be done after o'clock in the
afternoon, when the place is empty, is on hand
when the halls are threnged with people. A
nuisance of this kind is tolerated in no other
public building in this hemisphere.

pie. There is fund of valuable information in
this almanac that can not be found in the same
space anywhere, and no man interested in pub

THE PLATFORM.

The democratic platform is lengthy
document, which is, perhaps, necessary
as the convention had great deal to say.
1t is just about as long as might naturally
be expected considering the time consum-
ed in preparing it.
The platform divides itself into three
parts. First, bitter reveiw of the sins
of the republican party; second, forcible
declaration of democratic principles;
and third, an expression of the confidence
of the party in Its great leader, Samuel
], Tilden, and its deep regret that he is
unable to assume the burdens of the
presidency.
The declaration of principles is direct
and unmistakable. OF course the tariff
plank will attract the most attention as
the tariff is the one point upon which
there is any difference of opinion in the
democratic party. Upon all other ques-
tons the democracy is unit The plank
is nearly, but not quite as Outspoken upon
the necessity of reform in our present
war tariff as preceding declarations upon
the subject. ut denounces the abuses
of the existing tariff, and subject to the
preceding limitations demands that
federal taxation shall be exclusive exclus>
lively for public purposes and shall notex
coed the needs of the government economi>
cally administered. This declaration sat-
isied Mr.. Morrison and should be equally
satisfactory to other friends of tariff
reform
The entire statement of principles is
clear and concise and creditable to the
committee which drafted it. There is no
evasion anywhere, nor any attempt to
conceal the real purposes of the party,
and yet the platform is broad enough for
every democrat to stand on

THE state gamekeepers of New York
are on the hunt for Il lot of unprofessionsl
fishermen in Lake Erie and the Niagara
river. Thousands of dead fish are swept
ashore, which bear no marks of wounds
and no indications of disease, except the
bursting of their air bladders. Strange
subterranean or submarine sounds have
been heard by the along,shore fishermen,
which they say resembles low muttering
thunder. A steam yacht has been observ>
ed at the east end of the lake with lot
OF boats about it. The theory is that the
yachtsmen are using dynamite for the
disabling of the fish, when it becomes an
easy matter for the nets to pick them up
and haul them in. The gamekeepers are
after the yacht, and when caught, a Minis
lature naval battle may be looked for.
