MUST COME TO TERMS.
Ii Water Rates are Not Reduced the City Will
Make Use of Certain Privileges.

The Council finance committee will urge upon
the water works company the grant of free
water for tie public drinking fountains. IF this
is not done, said an official yesterday, Il am in
favor of enforcing the clause in the old charter
ordinance, which gives the people the right to
use water without cost from the fire plugs by
attaching thereto cock, hose or nozzle. Some
concessions must be made by the company be-
fore renewal of the contract for any length of
time is considered l do not want the contract
extended to five years, with or without conces-
sions. Three years is long enough ana If 1t can
be made for a less time so much the better
VIII your committee take up the question OF
uniform rates for private consumersP
I'VE have had complaint after complaint from
consumers that they are paying more for water
than others where the conditions are the same.
Something ought to be done. but we want the
people TO come before the committee with their
grievances. When they have done this we will
have something upon which to base a report to
the Council. If they don't appear before the
committee on Thursday am afraid the question
of regulating prices will be passed over. If any
one has complaint let him make it at that
meeting and we will give it attentioa."

THE WORK OF BURGLARS.
Business Houses Broken 0pen-A Virginia
Avenue Saloon-Keeper Robbed Of 500.

The opinion that a gang of thieves are
confirmation on Saturday night, when no less
than half dozen attempts made to rob
as many business houses along Washington
street. The attempts were of the same
prying or cutting hole large enough in the
glass to admit the hand and getting such articles
as might be within reach. Among the houses
on Washington street where robberies we're at
tempted were Meyer & Drieher. dry goods mer
chants. Hurrle's tailoring establishment, the
Mammoth shoe store, the shoe store of Hutchins
81 Co., and the Boot Up Side Down shoe house,
on the corner OF Kentucky avenue and Wash
angton street. But little was taken at any Of
these places probably because little that the
Ahievss desired was within reach 1t is thought
by the police that the burglars wait until or
o'clock before beginning their work.
On Sunday night the saloon owned Henry by
Stolte. No. $50 Virginia avenue, was entered,
and $400 In cash taken from the safe. The
burglars entered through the transom over the
rear door. first taking the precaution to bore a
hole through the door, and feed large New
goundland dog piece of poisoned meat They
then entered and opened the safe by drilling
half-inch hole at the side of the combination,
and secured the cash contents, amounting to the
sum stated. The safe was used place of
deposit for three building and loan associations
and usually held mere money,than at the time
Of the robbery. The work on the safe was very
skillfully done. and Mr.. Charles Gorsuch, the
ssfe-repairer, who made an examination of the
Bafe-door yesterday afternoon, thinks that the
burglars were experts and that the tools they
nse are of rare kind.

A Democrat Defends senator Harrison.

To the Editor of the indianapolis journal
In the Cincinnati Enquirer of the 7th ult.
there appeared an editorial entitled Interest
ing Indiana, in which the editor, or the writer
of the article referred to- undertakes to advise
the Democracy of Indiana as to the course they
should pursue in the coming campaign. AS one
of the Indiana Democracy, would suggest to
the writer of the article referred to that it would
perhaps be well to empty the wisdom and
sagacity of the writer aforesaid in advancing
the interests and quelling the disturbances in
the Democratic party of Ohio. Indiana Demo
Gratis are able to care for themselves, as is evil
denced by the fact of their repeated trumphs
over the opposite party at home, and, might
add, their coadjutors elsewhere My object in
noticing the article referred to was not for the
purpose of calling the writer's attention to the
old saying THAT those who live in glass houses
should not throw stones" but for the purpose of
saying that condemn the utterly unprovoked
and uncaled-for epithets hurled at Senator Har
rison. / do not indorse Senator Harrison's
course, neither his politics. but knowing him,
can truthfully say that he is not ''ittle non
entity" in any sense of the word. On the other
hand, regard him one of the leading states
men. not of Indiana alone. but one of the leading
statesmen of our country. Furthermore, /
know Hon. Benjamin Harrison to be honest and
upright, and one who would go out of his way to
| help his fIiends-a man against whom the breath
or suspicion mas never been raised.
/ am of the opinion the day and age have gone
| by when such attacks as that in the ENQUIRER
can in any way injure or detract from the repu-
tation of the person attacked; and while the De-
mocracy of Indiana may not approve Of Senator
| Harrlson's political doings opinions, they,
each and every one, recognize his eminent abili-
ties, both as lawyer and statesman, aud they
have State pride In seeing that outsiders shall
not detract FROM his well-earned reputation
as one of the recognized leaders of the august

A Gard from Republican Postofice EN-

plOyes.
TO the Editor Of the Indianapolis Journal:
The article in the Journal of Saturday morn
ing, in which Mr. Harding, prosecuting attorney,
is made to say that THE Republican employees in
the postofice afraid to testify in the Harri-
son case for fear of losing their places is such
gross Islander upon US, and upon the postmaster,
and such reflection upon our honesty and man
hood that we cannot allow it to pass without
our protest and denial. There is no feeling
IN the postoffice, so far as we know, from the
postmaster to the humblsst employe other than
that simple justice may be done. If Harrison is
guilty, let him be convicted, and if innocent let
him be acquitted. We have no desire to shield
MIN, to prosecute him, and any evidence in
our possession that may be desired will be freely
given without fear or favor.
The above is signsd by the following Repub-
gicAn employees of the Indianapolis postoffce:
