THE STATE MILITIA.
The unfinished business was consideration
of the bill 8. Ssl to regulate the State mil
tia.
Mr.. BROWNING: do not see how this
bill can pass. The Constitution says that no
colored men shall belong to it; and while
have no prejudice against that race, yet /
am sworn to support the Constitution, and
for that reason 1 can not support this bill.
Mr.. TOWNSEND: Does not the ConstItu-
ton of the United States declare this State
constitution nal provision void? And are you
not sworn 10 support the United States Con-
stitution?
Mr. BROWNING: do not believe that
the United States has any right TO interfere
with this State right.
Mr.. PATTEN: am member OF the @.
A. r., and nv post does not wish this bill.
This is an uu just measure 1t VIII throw an
extra burden on the people. Do the men
who labor ask for military institution in
Indiana? No. 1t is only the people in the
cities who ask for it-and for what purpose?
1t is for the purpose OF crushing out labor.
1t is direct blow at wage laborers, aud if
they dare raise their voices TO oppression
this militia is to declare riot and charge
upon the laborers. The bill declares that
the officers are to be chosen by an Examin-
ing Board. This is very Objectionable. The
militia, if there is one, should select
its own officers THEN there is tax
exemption, which would entail much
loss TO the State. We should
rather encourage oui Young men to think.

run the danger which is to be found in
such associations. The disreputables pass
themselves as respectable ladies at the
rink. They form acquaintance with young
men and lead them TO believe for time
at least that they are SUCH While under that
impression the young men are quite liable to in
troduce such females to their lady acquaintances
and sisters, if they have any. It is easy to see
how demoralizing and dangerous the presence Of
disreputable girls in the skating Kinks may be,
and doubtless is, to the young of both sexes.
The chief danger to the young girls. however,
grows out of the associations they are almost
sure to form with young men of depraved NOR
ais There are plenty of these to be seen there
at all times. They are alert for Irritation and
volving the ruin of the girl Such person
ages are to be found on the street, in the
parks, at balls. and everywhere, even IN
the churches. Unattended girls are never
safe against their allurements. But the skating
Kinks, as now conducted, appear to surpass all
other places in affording facilities for such de-
signing persons to get at their unsuspecting vic
Tins and give them their first lessons in sin.
An illustration of what is being done in this
direction occurred on the evening already re-
ferred to. AS the reporter left the rink two
young girls neither of them over seventeen
years old, stood at the entrance talking to two
young fellows.

After little urging. the girls consented, and
the four proceeded to a saloon not far distant,
and entered one of the private rooms at the
back. Wine was ordered twice inside of fifteen
minutes, and the girls chartered and giggled in
way which indicated that they were having
enjoyable experience.

hearts alone, like enc famished and thirsty she
goes to the nest of her jewels. Slowly, with soft
hands the little linens are laid aside, and slowly,
with trembling hands, the knife the top or the
string of dingy spools are drawn forth. All,
how gently they are pressed to the heart and lip.
What words are they saying. what sad sweet
songs are they singingl Kissed and cried on,
cried on and kissed Then yearningly, reluct-
antly clingingly, back they go to their nest in the

the drawer is closed, and she who knelt before it

CHKY AGRAMoNTE's name being so
much before the public at the present
time, recalls little anecdote told of the
gentleman just after he had experienced
the hospitality of the city police on
charge not necessary to mention. One
of the members of the police force,
HeIaman Pratt, now absent in Mexico,
speaks Spanish f1uently, a fact which
was not known to Agramonte at the
time. Mr.. Pratt one day strolled past
the General as he was talking to
number of Spaniards then doing" the
CITY. "Here comes Mormon police
man. said the general in Spanish; ''the
police of this city are, without exception,
the most brutal, bleodthirsty, depraved
set of Wretches that ever infested Gods
footstool, as you may have heard"
Then Stunning to the officer he said,
bIandly: "Ah, good morning. Mr..
Pratt, 1 was just speaking of you police
officers to these gentlemen, telling them
how well the city is governed" Mr..
Pratt smiled grimlY under his mustache,
and we suppose Agramonte does not
know to this day that the officer had
understood the Spanish as well as the
English remark.
