The Wealth OF the South.

A Western man who has been a

letter to a friend IN this city: You

resources than any two of the great
Northwestern States ana Terrific,

so has Kentucky, SO has Alabama.
Why doh the people of these States
go to work and boom to the amaze
ment of themselves and all the
world?
This. is a Western view of the
situation here, and very correct
one 1t is only recently that the
wealth of the South is fully apprecia-
ted W. we're not a little surprised
at it ourselves at first, and the PEG
ple of Louisiana could scarcely
believe that their State possessed
valuable minerals until it was proved
to them beyond the possibility OF
a doubt. In every field, the South
has shown itself rich. 1t possesses
the largest area of m~erchantahle
timber in America and the greatest
variety Of woods it possesses iron
ore and coal closer together in
abundance, than they are to he
found anywhere else in the world
it possesses water power to turn
all the factories of civilization;
fertile lands without limit good for
all the products of the temperate
and tropic zones for fruit, grasses
and all. else; it possesses a genial
cline which allows the greatest
amount of out door work, and which
gives the crops ample time te
mature. Cal. Donan sees all this
and it is not to be wondered a
that he should feel astonished at tht
undcveloped wealth Of the South.

that was due to him by Sandy L..
On the appointed day the lawyer
appeared and presented the bill.
Taking him to his private room, he
asked. Now are you sur you have
put down everything which he owes

carl then locked the door, placed
on the table a brace Of loaded

An Ambitious Loaisianian Suddenly Finds

An Ambitious Loaisianian Suddenly Finds
Himself in Shoal Water.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WAsHINToN, JAM 2-Jonas, the new customs
officer at New Orleans seems to have brought
his ship of state to stand-still in shoal water.
He was appointed, about six months ago. by Mr..
Cleveland with the understanding that
he was civil-service reformer and would
conduct his Office upon civilserv;ce-re-
form principles. The President, it seems,
did not know that Jonas was ambitious, even
though he thought he knew the Louisianians
general platform. Jonas is small man, mild
and meek hammered, and looks as if he knew
nothing of the politicians ways and wles.
About two years ago he was defeated for reelec-
ton to the United States Senate by Mr.. Eustis
He had posed as civil-service re-
former and an anti ring man, and Eustis,
posed to reform, retired him; but Jonas did not
know he was retired. and took the Office he now
occupies, determined to use it for all it was
worth to effect his return to the Senate. No
sooner did he get settled into his position than
he discharged employees right and left and put
in men he knew would help him towards the
Senate. He began forming ring of his own,
forgot all about the civil service law, and
violated it outrageously. Some of the dismissed
men got together, prepared charges
against him, and forwarded them
to the President, who referred them
to Civil-service Commissioner Trenholm.
An investigation followed and also report,
which left Jonas nothing to stand upon. The
President, it is said. was much exercised over
the result Of the investigation from this end of
the line, and requested that the matter De
given into the hands of Examiner
Lyman, intimating that it was very
serious matter to Jonas and expressing deep re-
gret over his disappointment in the man. Ex-
aminer Lyman has gone to New Orleans, and
the outlook is not cheerful for the alleged re-
former he goes to look after. This must be an.

WASHINGTON, JAM 2-'The nerve shown by

an old employe of the House to-day "People

his dinner was to be big affair. He wanted
to make big show, but not spend much money.
After he had fixed out his list of guests he con-
ceived the brilliant idea of not having his invita-
tions engraved, but securing an employe around
and inquired who was the best penman there.
He was pointed to man in the enrolling room.

for municipal control Statesmen of every

cause Tammany, in hopelessness of electing its
candidates, had carelessly made up an excellent
ticket of men for whom, on personal cons;dera.
tions, anybody could vote without regret; but
chiefly on account of tho open and shameless
bargaining between the regular or County De-
mocracy and the Republicans, which led
thousands of independents to use a
