A BIT OF HISTORY.

In referring to the record of q Mr.. Higgins,
OF Baltimore, who has recently been appoint
ed TO q clerkship In the Treasury Depart
ment, a Washington special to the Com.
mercisl Gazette, among other things says:
In 1876. aud again in 1850. he had charge OF the
baltimore fepeaters and rufiians who went TO the
October election ia Indiana. registered at the Ne.
Deniton House In indianapolis, aud conducted
their operations from that point.

Indiana Republcanism ~ OF the blacklist.
The Republicans had filled this city la
October with gangs OF radical buns
and roughs from the large
cities East, aud to Offset these
hoIdts IL was necessary TO have some one
here to spot" them. II was ewing to this
timely aid that Republican repeaters were
thwarted. Several were arrested on election
day, bat were set at liberty by Dudley or his
deputies on straw bail Dudley was at that
time the United States Marshal. The ma
jority that was promised Mr.. Porter for Gov.
ernor in Marion County, and anticipated be-
cause OF the presence OF these bummers and
repeatere, was 500. IL was owing entirely
to Democratic vigilance that the proposed
sjority WAS kept down to about 2 900, and
about onehalf or more oil this was
bogus. At this electio, we were over
whelmed by hundreds OF partisan

organs should be very modest when they

great wonder 10 that Mr.. Porter's majority
IN this county was not 5000 or 6000. The

IS THERE A REMEDY ?

About two and q half years ago North
Meridian street, from New York to Seventh
street, was we'll paved with cedar blocks.
From that time until now this fine boule-
ward has been constantly used as the main
thoroughfare by all classes and kinds of
vehicles passing to and fro between the GEN.
trail and northern parts OF the city. The
most heavily .laden trucks and wagons,
hauling ssw.loes, wood, brick, lumber and
produce from the country into the city. and
the coal carts, express and delivery wagons
all use North Meridian street, when necss.
sary, to deliver their loads. No other ave.
nues In Indianapolis are used as much ex-
cepting the business streets--South Meridian
and portions OF Illinois and Washington.

continual heavy traffic the cedar pave

This extraordinary use OF Meridian street
should be forbidden. and the rights OF the

If North Meridian street is to be used as
