AFTERNOON SESSION.

Mr.. CAMPBELL, OF Hendricks, in behalf
OF the Committee on Benevolent Inst;tu-
tons, explained that the 900 for boilers
and boiler houses was to buy sixteen boilers
at 81, 0C0 each. The so, O00 is to repair dam
age by fire this winter. a laundry machine
Will cost 3, 900.
On motion by Mr.. BROWN the item tor
the maintenance of the Blind Asylum was
increased from $25, 900 to $27 900, and the
item for repairs decreased from 81, 900 TO
5000.
Mr.. CAMPBELL explained the boilers
now in use al the Deaf and Dumb Asylum
are dangerous, and the heating apparatus
worn out.
Mr.. WILLARD: The Committee on FL
nance recommend an increase foom SD 800
10 SIS coo for completion of buildings and
workshops, and purchase of machinery for
Purdue University; and also striking out the
proviso that no part Of this sum shall be
drawn from the Treasury until The people of
T1ppecanoe County shall have expended
like sum toward the erection of workshops
and buildings Why should the State make
such contract With Iippscsnoe County?
There is no obligation upon the citizens of
that county TO thus support that State Uni
versity. That provlso practically kills the
appropriation. The entire art work Of that
institution is done and the students are
forced to pursue their studies III damp cellar
rooms.
M. NamI DELL VI OF Joseph. Inc SEN

Finance Committee.
Mr.. SMITH, Of Jay: desire TO point oct

Each county is allowed TO send two students

large is taxed for every expense connected

Mr.. MCCULLOUGH: I am opposed to

FRIDAY, April 3, 1885.

TELEPHONE RENTS.
The SPEAKER: The unfinished business
is the further consideration OF the bill a.
r. Al regulating the rental of telephones.
The question is. shall the bill pass?
Mr.. FRENCH We should not make al IN
just discrimination against the telephone.
/ am not here to champion telephone COM
panies. do not know a man in the State
who know has telephone stock. All / say
is strictly upon the merits of the bill. Many
telephone exchanges in small places are
wholly long lines, connected with those at
distance. Then why should we say to them
that they should charge only fifteen cents
for short conversation, while the Telegraph
Company charges twenty-five cents for only
ten words? This is unjust. We may safely
let this go as it is Tor two years, for improve
ment of the telephone will go rapidly on
until then. Every one knows the benefits
OF the telephone, and We an not afford to
lame it in this way. We should vote down
this bill.
Mr.. SMITH, of Tippecanos: There are two
bran ehes TO this-city telephones and coun-
try telephones in the small towns. Take
Lafayette fer 8 standpoint. About it are a
number of email towns, Del phi, Mulberry,
Fowler and many others. which are con-
Dected by telephone. This bill will destroy
the lines TO those places. Men do business
for money, and as this will render il loss il
will destroy the systems. Men do large
az cunt of business over them-talk i've
minutes for twenty five cents. The company
can not afford 10 do tbs for fifteen cents
As it is u is much cheaper than telegraph
ing.
Mr.. BROWNLEE: The telephone in this
State, il is true, is new. II is a wonderful
invention and convenient. Bat we should
open no door that We can not close. There
is more profitable business than the tele.
phone. Nothing pays 50 largely as stock in
them. Men who operate them do not own
them, but pay q royalty to the inventors.
But the royalty is regulated by the amount
OF iBcome from the lines. 1t is nonsense to
gay that this bill will cause the lines to cesse
operations. This is fair bill, aud the price
q fair and reasonable price.
Mr.. GORDON: The only objection waged
against the bill is that il will drive the tele.
phones from this country. One ths. is only
hypothesis. My opinion is that this legis-
lation will double or treble the business on
the lines. 1t has been said that the royalty
on these Instruments is $50 per year. Do
You not know that such is exhorbitant?
Money could be made on royalty OF s. per
year. 1 hope the bill will pass.
Mr.. TOWNSEND: desire to give little
history of this telephone rs We had it in
Richmond The telephone company there
undertook TO raise the price from So to 81
per month. The citizens rebelled and two
uyd companies appeared and offered 10

INSOMNIA.

Our worthy friends the total abstainers
have met 4 new foe, and one not easily
vanquished. 1t comes in the form Of
medical opinion of high character that in
insomnia, one of the most stubborn char
aeteristics of insanity and a fruitful cause
of it, malt and alcoholic liquors frequently
succeed in inducing sleep where all other
forms of treatment prove utterly una
vailing. The danger is that when this
doctrine is once generally promulgated
there will be surprising and sudden in
crease in the total Of men and women who
are troubled with sleeplessness. However,
it goes toprove that absolute abstinence can
not always be insisted upon, and that these
stimulants have value at times as a bever-
age incidentally administered. DR.. J. K.
Bandy, one Of the most experienced of
experts in treating insomnia, declares
in the Medical B5ig that the history of
alcoholism, sexual excess and the opium
habit throw a food of light upon the
causes Of sleeplessness, than which there
are few more dangerous pathological con-
ditions. \ repetition Of few nights of
pitching and tossing and hearing the clock
strike every half hour the weary dark
hours through, will break down the strong
est constitution, since the recuperation of
sleeping hours is an essential to healthy
cerebral conditions. But the lovers of
strong drink must not assume that beer
and liquor IS a remedy in all cases. When
one is accustomed TO their use we Judge
from the debates of the doctors, they are
inefficient. But Dr. Bandy asserts, after a
quarter Of a century of experience with the
disease, that " in some cases malt and
alcoholic beverages viii succeed where
morphia, CHORAL hyoscyami and the bro
mides completely fail. Il now make
many insane patients sleep with beer and
alcohol, where formerly morphia, choral
and the bromides were given night after
night But he adds that while he uses
beer frequently, he gives first place to a
certain preparation known as bromida,"
and supplements his remarks by the state
ment that alcoholic cases of insomnia are
the most intractable, as when it comes to
sleeplessness from that cause, the case is
apt to be very difficult one to handle.
