Mr.. McCnlIoch Ind0rsad.

The following is the letter sent to Rev. Mr..
McCulloch by the Social Turnverein of this
city:
INDIANAPOLIS Ind, Dec. I. 1886.
Rev Oscar q. McCulloch, City:
Honored Sir-Wth great interest the Social Turn
verein of Indianapolis has taken notice of the letter
in which you express yourself in favor of lenency in
the sentence Of the condemned Chicago Anarchists
We admire in your letter not only the of in
dependent thought which opposes the current of pub
lie sentiment, but also the humane feeling which per-
vades your every line.
Most certainly we are likewise of the opinion that
in free country the appeal to any other power but
that of the ballot is criminal and should be treated
cordingy. Any other doctrine cannot and must not,
be tolerated But to uphold this doctrine 1t is not
necessary to rt to barbarous 1t is bar
barous to condemn men to death by hanging
whose direct participation in throwing the fateful
bomb not proven. The sentence of the jury is
not just and wise it is the voice of mpulsive wrath
the echo of the multitude that thirsts for revenge
We Gsclare emphatically that the execution OF the
death sentence would be not only political but
also crime, and perfect counterpiece to the APP
palng destructiveness of the dynamite bomb besides
resulting in good.
You have recognized this fact, and have done your
duty a citizen of this Republic knowing you would
forfeit your popularity; hence we honor your action
all the and hope that your important appeal may
not be lost in the wind.
For the Social Turnverein of Indianapolis

Exchange of Acidulated Compliments Be
tween w. e. Chandler and b. f. Jones.
PITTsBURG, Dec. FIN his recent letter to the
Boston Herald, ex-Secretary Chandler said:
after the presidential election the chairman
OF the national committee was indiscreet enough,
IN published interview, to impute to President
Arthur and the members of his Cabinet want
OF fidelity and zeal in the canvass. This charge
was oaseless, and was SO declared by me at the
time. All possible and appropriate assistance
was rendered. 1t could not have been expected
that we should supersede the chairman or do his
work, although it would have been better If
some one had done So"
reporter of the Pittsburg Commercial Ga
zette called upon Mr. B. F. Jones' the chairman
of the national committee, and asked him what
he had to say in reply to this paragraph. Mr..
Jones said:
"The statements made by me in the interview
referred TO by Mr.. Chandler l then considere
necessary and proper to make and now, as then,
know them to be true The purport of these
statements was that if Mr.. Arthur and members
OF his Cabinet, with few exceptions, had been
as loyal to Mr.. Blaine as Mr. Blaine would have
been to Mr.. Arthur, had the latter been nom
mated, Mr. Blaine would have been President.
So far as Mr. Chambers reference to me, per-
sonally, IS concerned, do not feel called upon
to defend myself l have no taste for nor do 1
see any present occasion for, discussion as to
political methods with one whose plans and pro-
posals during the brief intercourse I had with
him in the campaign of 1884 were not such to
commend him to those having the success of the
Republican party at heart His criticisms at
that time OF men then the most prominent In
the party, do not seem to me quite consistent
with his present expressions of regret in re-
gard to the bad feeling between public men. l
would not like to feel called upon to make pub
lie the facts upon which my opinion of Mr..
Chandler is based"

The Federal Grand Jury's Work.

The United States grand jury did not com
plete its business yesterday, anticipated, but
there is a promise that report will be made
to-day. No witnesses were examined in the
Marion county election cases. as the testimony
is all at hand and the discussion on the question
of indictments is in progress AS to what the
result will be, no intimation could be cleaned;
but the speculation on political influence in
warding off what ought to be done is rife.

''What, In your opinion, are the chief
causes of unrest and detection among the
people generally"
"Flrst and foremost Is the almost uni
versal habit, Micawber Ike, of living Just
little ahead of their incomes. Second,
and q most potent factor OF discomfort, is
the objectionable sin committed by a
great many public men who magnify
human Ills and endeavor to convince the
people that the times are not only hard,
but that they are getting worse; that all
signs ere ominous, owlish and evil [;
that they are downtrodden and oppressed,
and should rise in their might and throt-
tie the fell destroyers. Now, this il a
sugar-coated pill filled with 'dammits'
and dRmnation and IS constantly eXplod.
ing, uprooting social order, destroying
human happiness, and leaving the odor
of covetous unrest in its poisonous
wake, and it is as untrue as it is hurtful.
No man claims that no mistakes are made
and that no abuses exist, but, Judging
tire future by the past; we are justified in
the belief that the same healthy progress
| toward better things that has brought us
to an advancement in civilization so
I lOlbN ds w luuhc US luG hcuCOu lOT Hu uu-
miring world will continue. Let us,
therefore, call to the complaners to halt
and examine the past, and admit the in
controvertible fact that our natural and
legal advantages are incomparably better;
that our restrictions are fewer; our bur-
den of taxation lighter; that our intel.
lectual and moral standard is higher that
we are freer and ought to and would be
happier than any people under the sun II
we would only lay aside the curtain OF
| complaint, that the light of truth might
discover to US the manifold blessings
that surround us.n
