A WASHINGTON special to the New York
World says that the charges made by the
Civil-service Reform Association of Indiana
against certain federal officials have ''practi-
sally gone into the administration aste-bas
ket y and that theattention given those against
Collector Kuhn, of this city, were simply a
formality, and will not amount to anything.
1t is said that after the election caution will
be administered to him, and then the matter
will be dropped. The dispatch further admits,
Engenuously, that the Presidents famous order
was intended for Republican officials, and that
1t was not expected that Democrats would in
terpret it too strictly. And thus ends another
paragraph of the chapter known as Demo
cratic civil-service reform.

The money that should be in the State treas
ury is not there, and there is no telling where
it is When the legislative commit
tee sought to find it, the minor
ity of that committee, acting for
the people, were told that they would not be
allowed to find out. The money is not there,
and has not been there for months. The
State debt has been increased by over mill
ion, and the treasury is bankrupt with the
States unsatifed indebtedness being hawked
about the streets for buyers at and s per
cent. discount. 1t is time the treasury books
of Indiana be opened for inspection, but in
anticipation of such demand the last Legisla-
ture gerrymandered the State in such way
that the Democracy could prevent investiga-
ton. Where is the money! Open the books

THOSE who remember Mr. Blaine's prophe-
cies in 1884. and who. have noticed just how
they have turned out, are whispering to them
selves that we have an American Virgins.
Louisville Courier ournal.
Mr.. Blaine's prophecies" would probably
have proved true, but the Democratic Con-
gress had not the courage or the confidence
in itself to make any change in the policy
followed by the Republican party. At this
moment with the Democratic party in power
nearly twenty months it has made no
change in the polity of the government, but
has admitted that it has been unable to
better it. 1t has tacitly Endorsed Republican
methods and Republican principles so far as
the financial conduct Of affairs is concerned
The Democratic party has not been able to
suggest single reform that it cared to put
into practice. All its boosted ideas have
blown away with the wind since there has
been an opportunity to make use of them
1t confesses that it is not competent to
lead, and is content to follow in the safe
and well-marked path blazed by Republican
niOneers

this kind but up to this time nothing Of the
kind has been discovered. When it is, it will
be time to make such charges and to get rid
of men dishonest enough to resort to such
contemplate business. 1t is not to be credit
ed that old and tried men in the public service
would care to run the risk of mourning dis
grace after serving faithfully for years, and
hoping to go out of the service
with honorable records. It is natural that
the Democratic administration or it's
friends should seek to shift the blame Of the
execrable management of the postal service
since it passed out Of the hands of the Repub-
lican party, but it Is dishonest to broadly
charge that the old employees are dishonorable
without making some kind Of proof. If there
be any truth in the limitations thrown out it
would be the easiest thing in the world to fas-
ten the guilt right where it belongs. Until
this is done the public will be excused when
it believes that the fault lies wholly on the
new and incompetent men who have been
dragged out of dark places to fill positions for
which they are in no wise qualified. If the
same kind of mon have been selected else
where as have been appointed here, there is
no marvel that the postal service is what it is
to-day, laundering unreliable and vexatious

pioneers.

ONE thing must be borne in mind by the
voters of Marion county: They must put up
a majority for honest men that will not offer
temptation to "Sim" Coy and his gang of
ballot box breakers. It has not been so long
since they burglarized ballot-bo in this
city that it has been forgotten by the people.
If the men who are elected are to get their
offices, their majorities must be of magni-
tude to dismay these fellows. There ara
Democratic Hollis on the ground, ready to do
the bidding of the boss who has no scruples
in anything, his only ambition being to "get
there" The man base enough to express
the wish that he might vote the insane
will not be above perpetrating the most des-
perate frauds. This must be remembered.

OPEN TIE ROOKS

If the cashier of any bank were to refuse to
allow the fullest investigation of his accounts,
or were he to show any disposition to prevent
investigation, the directors Of that bank would
at once suspect something wrong, and an in
vestigation would be ordered instanter And
if the managers of any banking institution
were to refuse to allow its patrons to know any
thing concerning its condition, it is morally
certain that the public would at once con-
clude there was something wrong and would
withdraw patronage from the same 1t is ex-
actly the same with any treasurer or manager
of public or private trusts. This is why the
people of Indiana, with good reason, suspect
that the condition Of their State treasury is
not what it should be. The Democratic sman-
ayers Of the same, for some reason, have re-
fused the people opportunity to look into its
condition, and the Treasurer has been backed
up in his refusal to answerquestions intended
to arrive at the condition of the trust in his
care. When he was asked pointedly if he was
employing the public funds contrary to law,
he was shielded by the Democratic partisan
majority of the committee, and was told that
he need not answer that question. The truth
is that every indication pointed to the fact
that he was not conducting the Office in ac-
cordance with the law. When a showing was
asked of the funds that should have been in
the treasury, he was unable to produce more
than 81, 900 in cash, though there should have
been nearly half million. The question is,
where is the money, and will it ever be avail
able for State purposesG At this time esti-
mate allowances are being sold at
heavy discount, when there should be
thousands at the Treasurer's disposal
for the specific purpose Of paving such
claims That there is something wrong has
been tacitly admitted by all concerned. No
Democrat of standing has pretended anthing
else. It were useless to attempt defense.

THE BENEvOLENT INsTITuT1oNs.


The benevolent institutions of the State Of
Indiana have been. the pride of the people.
They have patiently and willingly submitted
to being taxed for the purpose Of maintaining
them in the manner they should be. and in
that way. best suited to the comfort and we'll
being of the unfortunate inmates This is
particularly true of the Hospital for the In
sane. How Infamous it is then, to pervert
the purpose of the people and prostitute these
noble charities to the personal ends of schem-
ing and constituencies men who would enrich
themselves at the expense of those unfortu-
nate enough to lose their minds and become
helpless. It will be astounding if the people
of Indiana, who have contributed hundreds
of thousands for the purpose of making
the Insane Hospital among the best
in the land, do not resent the in
famies practiced upon the demented in
mates of their magnificent structures. 1t is
incredible that the people should submit to
the outrages that have been practiced upon
Indiana's insane. It has been shown that the
present managers have slaughtered hogs from
a diseased and dying drove to provide food for
the patients. 1t has been further shown that
grease butter has been fed to them, at a time
when the price asked would have secured the
best butter. It has been further shown that
otherfood was often of poor quality and in
sufficient in quantity. There was not the
idea of economy in this, though that would
have been Infamous. It was infinitely worse
than that, for it was at the instigation Of a
few men who thus have enriched themselves
by demanding and accepting high prices for
good articles when they furnished adulterated
and unhealthful food, hoping that these things
would not be discovered. And after they
were discovered no action was taken, if we
except the gerrymander, which was intended to
return another Legislature partisan enough
and contemplate enough 10 wink at such out
RACES in fear Of offending the politician and
candidate who is the beneficiary Of the swindle
This is one of the matters that comes up for
consideration in the election to be held within
few days. 1t must then be decided whether
this is to continue with the approval of the
people, or whether the taxpayers of Indiana
will declare by their votes that they have no
patience with scoundrels contemplate enough
and heartless enough to speculate on the COM
fort and we'll being of the insane. The whole
Infamous business should be laid open, and
the benevolent institutions wrested from the
