LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The State Teachers Association.

TO the Editor of tho indianapolis Journal:
May / make a suggestion through the Journal
concerning the programme Of the State Teach
ers' Association At present the persons who
appear before the association are those who are
well known throughout The State, or are person
ally acquainted with member of the commit
tee on the arrangement of the programme This
gives no opportunity to the majority of the
is, 900 teachers of the State to be heard even if
they have something to say Moreover. some
of the papers presented are valueless, people
writing at times either because they are asked,
or because they wish to get their names before
the public, and knowing that no censorship
will be exercised in regard to the presenta-
ton of papers. The following plan works
so admirably in several scientific societies of tho
United States that its adoption could hardly be
considered in the light of an experiment Noxt
year, if not feasible this year. set aside one day
of the association and half day of the high
school section for the reading of voluntary pa
pers. Appoint a committee to receive and ex-
anime such papers in fulI. or abstracts of them,
before the day of reading. OF the papers pre-
sented let the committee select those that are
of the greatest excellence.
Is it too much to expect that this will increase
the usefulness of the association, since we shall
hear from the people who speak because they
have something to say9 LILLE j. MARTIN.

Liberty,s Torch snuffed Out.

NEW YORK, Nov. 9.-The Goddess of Liberty q
torch has not been lighted since Saturday night.
Whether it will be lighted again at all is an I'M
solved problem. The American committee has
ing the statue by subscription or through per-
sonal contract with the engineers have come
to little or nothing. General Schofeld
has called the attention of the War
Department to the lack of any funds
for maintaining a beacon on Bedloe's
Island and of any provision whatever for the
statue. If any money can be diverted Temporal
rily for that purpose by the War Department the
lighting will probably be resumed before long
If no funds can be had from Washington the
Goddess will have to wait, General Schofeld
thinks, until bin establishing lighthouse on
the island, and an appropriation for maintaining
it, passes at the next session of Congress, before
her torch can be lighted again.

CAN the Republican Committee.

To the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal
am one of the thousands of Republicans in
Marion county who sincerely believe that the en-
tire Republican ticket, with two exceptions was
elected in this county on Nov g. 1886. That the
popular candidates upon our county ticket should
have been defeated honestly, when the State
candidates have majorites running up into the
hundreds is not probable. That sufficient frauds
were committed that can be overturned by a
fair and impartial investigation there can be no
doubt Every day reveals new instances of lille:
gal voting and other fraudulent methods used
by Sim Coy and his gang to defeat the will of
the people. Shall this injustice 60 unrighted9
Shall men not elected go into our county Offices
to mismanage the affairs of this county? Shall
the criminals who have defeated the will of the
people by fraud and forgery 90 unpunished9 /
have great faith in the Committee of One Hun
dred but cannot other associations be brought
to their aid? Why does not the chairman Of the
Republican county committee call that organiza-
ton together and have it take prompt energetic
action in behalf of the candidates defrauded of
their election at the polls or by forgery
since the polls closed? I am sure that
the members would unanimously and promptly
respond to such summons. That organi
cation should raise the money necessary
to enable the defrauded candidates to make
contest and get at all the facts. It is due to
them that this should be done. They are poor
men, and, understand, are financially unable
to undertake contest 1t is due to the voters
who voted for them that this action be taken.
The people will, believe, respond promptly and
literally to any appeal that may be made to
them for financial aid for this purpose. l am
poor man, but would cheerfully contribute So
or $40 for this purpose and have heard many
of my own fellow workingmen express them
selves as willing to do likewise Let the com
mittee be called together at once, and steps be
Immediately taken to preserve the rights of all
the candidates defrauded of their election. Do
this, and firmly believe the result will give us
Republicans in the Offices of clerk, sheriff
treasurer commissioners, and two more Repub-
lican Representatives in the Legislature.

NEWARK, Nov. 9-Charles Fl. Billar was ar
rested this evening on the charge of obtaining
$500 under false pretenses. Billar has quite a
reputation as life-saver, having received the
congressional medal and that of the New York
Humane Society for saving the lives of H. A.
Benedict and his two daughters of Hyde
Park, Chicago, at Coney Island, about two
years ago. Mr.. Benedict presented him with
several valuable presents. Billar's plan was to
send telephone messages to the Western Union
Telegraph Company in the names of persons
who are in the habit of doing business that way,
to telegraph money to third person, whom
Billar would represent and get the money. He
has been in the employ of the company, but was
recently discharged. He owns two houses and
lots, and has money in the bank.

A Significant Land Purchase.

New YORK, Nov 9.-The Mail and Express
says: "The recent transfer of valuable water
front on Staten island to a Western railroad as a
point for transfer is discussed by commercial
men as a move of great significance. The prop
erty acquired is three plots, covering quarter
of mile of waterfront just below Vanderbilt's
landing, and also, 300 acres of land in the in
terror. The purchases we're made by E. D. Cor
nell, prominent real estate agent of this city,
from various local parties, in the interest, it is
said, of the Dukes of Devonshire and Buccleuch
These gentlemen are large owners Of stock in the
Anchor line of steamers, and own nearly all of
Barrow-in Furness the point in Scotland to
which shipments are to be made. The newly
acquired water front is large enough to admit of
extra docks and piers that will accommodate the
largest ocean steamers afoat. The scheme is a
big one and if successful, will establish direct
connection between the great Northwest and
Scotland, thus avoiding the expense of rehand-
ling the freRhts and the heavy lighterage at this
point. The one thing reedful to perfect the
project is the completion of the bridge across the
Arthur Kill"
