MIR. PARNELL'S VIGOR.

No approach has yet been made TO an under
standing between Mr.. Gladstone and Mr. Parnel
respecting the precedence of the land question and
Home Rule. Mr.. Parncll in the meantime has
faced and quelled mutiny in his own ranks. Mr.
Healy's and Mr.. Biggar's determined resistance to

SELF who repeated at full length with many ap-
palling details his wifes confession Of longcOntn-
he'd adultery with Sir Charles Dixie. AS his wife
did not appear this was held TO be conclusive
against her but not legal evidence against Sir
Charles Dixie. The Judge said that he saw no
reason for doubling the truth Of Mr.. Crawford's
evidence and was compelled to come to the con-
clusion that the adultery charged was committed

SENATOR HARRISON reached home yester-
day noon, to spend few days in necessary
private business, respite from public duty
he felt entitled to after having spent the en-
tire holiday vacation in hard work in his COM
mittee-room. The Senator comes fresh from
the victory of the Dakota debate in the Sem
ate, and the warmth and enthusiasm
with which he was greeted by the Sew
enth district convention yesterday, when he
walked into it, attested the esteem in which
he is held by the Republicans of the State.
The Senator made very strong and effective
speech, entirely off hand, in which he en-
phasized the wrongs of Republican disfran-
chisement by the Democracy, both in the
South and in the North, taste of which has
been given the people of Indiana in the
grossly unfair gerrymander of the legislative
and congressional districts Of the State by the
last Legislature. He also spoke with honest
indignation of the assassination methods of
the present Observation-Disclosures which
he believed would be rebuked by the innate
sentiment Of fair play which is charac-
teristic of the American people. The
Senator's speech was a happy Incl
dent of the convention, which, in
itself, was large deeply interested, and in an
aggressive state of mind. The unanimous
reelection Of Mr.. Daniel NJ Ransdell as
member Of the State central committee was
indicative of the spirit of unanimity pervad-
ing the convention and the party it repre-
sented, and was, besides, compliment worth
lily given to gentleman who had fairly earned
it by faithful and intelligent service.
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1886-02-12

The importance of the matter is sufficient
warrant for the Journal to again call the at
tention Of the Republicans of Center township
to the absolute and imperative necessity of a
strong nomination for trustee. A good man
can be elected; one indifferently fitted for the
place will be defeated; poor candidate will be
overwhelmed. The tax payers cannot be ca
joled or bullied into supporting an inefficient
and incapable man for this place. and the party
might as we'll understand it first as last A
nomination is by no means equivalent to an
election; that depends upon the known char
acter and fitness of the nominee. A nomina
ton can be made which means success; a
nomination may be made that is defeat from
the start. Things are not as they were fifteen
or twenty years ago. Voters are scrutinizing
the men they vote for very closely nowadays.

IT is said that the relatives of Rev. T. E.
Green, of Chicago who recently left the Pres
byterian Church to ally himself with the
Episcopal, are greatly distressed thereby His
father, who is also minister, is particularly

astically great gulf between them" If both
do the best they can, it is possible that this
great gulf will be considerably narrowed when

SPEAKING of the Investigation of Senator
Payne, the New York Sun says: "If any

about it. He will have five years to serve
from the 4th of March, and his place is doubly
valuable from having this long term to run y
This scheme, as the Sun calls it, is of Dem
ocratic origin, and must depend upon Demo

is receiving the thanks of the mugwump
journals for what they are pleased to consider
his triumphant and valorous repulse of Gail
Hamilton in her onslaught upon civil-service

the vigorous and crushing way in which he
charges the audacious Gail with the heinous
