THE Union Railway Company seems dis
posed to do the best thing possible for the
city and for the roads interested in the new
station here, and have concluded to make the
contemplated structure even better than was
intended. This should be borne in mind,
that the new station will be for years to come,
and the accommodations should be arranged
accordingly. The fifteen roads that center
here should have ample room for the transac-
ton of their immense business, and the struct-
ure should be credit to them. The people
of indianapolis should be glad to afford every
encouragement to the prosecution of this
much-needed Improvement.

WHAT the South demands as the price of
her reconciliation is fully and succinctly set
forth in the following article from the Charles
ton News and Courier, one of the ablest and
fairest-minded papers in the Southern States:
''The thing that is sure to come, and is
coming very fast, and sooner than was to be
expected, is desire, rather, to JUS
tfy the Southern people in the fight they
made, and to relieve them, one and all, from
their foremost leader to their humblest SOL
dier of that stain of blood outlines which
was fastened upon them in mems minds so
long as it could be held that the war was, on
the part of the South, a wanton and
inexcusable rebellion against a just and
good government. When we come to
this pass, that it shall be admitted everywhere
that the South was right under its construc-
tion of the Constitution; that its construction
of the Constitution was the construction which
obtained at the time the Constitution was
formed, and was in the minds of the conven-
tion which gave that Constitution the breath
of life, and was asserted and purported to be
acted upon in Pennsylvania and New England,
when those States had grievances under the
laws of the United States; when all this is
fully and frankly admitted, as it is beginning
to be admitted by thoughtful Northern men,
the taint of rebellion will be taken away from
the people of the South"

Losses by Fire.

ST. LOUIS, June 18.-Fire broke out at about
midnight tonight in the shops of tho Missouri
car and foundry works. An alarm was turned
in as soon as it was discovered, and two engines
were soon on the spot They, however, were
unable to control the flames and a second alarm
was given. Before it was answered, however,
the flames. owing to the ipfammable nature Of
the contents of the buildings, spread rapidly,
despite the fremen's efforts. The works were
almost completely destroyed. The loss is esti-
mated between $3.50, 900 and 5000, 900; partially
covered by insurance.

Exeter, N. H.. Special.
When Professor Tufts, OF Philips's Exeter
Academy came into the recitation room this
morning his face was as dark as a thunder cloud
Fifty or more young gentlemen sat facing him.
and from the appearance of the Professor it was
evident that storm was brewing: Immediately
after prayer 1t burst.
"Gentlemen,' said the Professor, II am panied
to say that some persons who consider them
selves gentlemen have been guilty of q con-
temptible action. | do not make any specific
charge against any particular young gentlemen,
but have every reason to believe that within
twenty four hours / shall be in possession of
facts that will lead to the detection of the per-
son or persons who locked that horse up in my
room.'
The fifty students listened with bated breath,
and when the Professor had concluded every face
was the personifcation of childlke innocence
Each man personally condoied with the Profes-
sor, and said the affair was dastardly. To cor
respondent the Professor told the following
story: 'sSome time dnring the night some of
those young men went to my stable, and, taking
my best horse, took the animal into the academy,
out in the dormitory, and up two fights of stairs
into my sleepug-room, where l found it this
morning. How they managed to get the animal
there am at q loss to see.p 1t took three labor
ers over half hour this morning to get the ami
NAL down, while all the youths in the village
stood around and cheered themselves hoarse.

THE Democrats of the Fourth Indiana dis
trict attested yesterday their appreciation of
the Hon. w. S. Holman by renominating him
for Congress. The entire Nation should re-
joice in Mr.. Holmans return. He is one of
the most useful members of the House.-New
York Sun.
The people Of the country at large would be
infinitely obliged to the SIN if it would be
kind enough to specify in what respects the
Hon. William s. Holman has proved himself
a useful member of the House. The opinion
has obtained everywhere outside his own dis
trict that he was a very expensive man to
have in the halls of national legislation. He
has done more to fritter away valuable time
than any other ten men there. Under the
plea Of saving the money of the people, he
has, by the meanest and cheapest demagogy,
done more to waste time than any other man
who ever had the honor of holding a seat
there. To save 10 cents on the cost of wash
ing the towels used in the House he has not
hesitated to squander a thousand dollars
worth of time. And this has been the size of
this man ever since he was first elected to
Congress. His other great services lie in the
able manner in which he has looked after the
welfare of his relatives and supporters The
Journal has recently shown how he has Sc
cured places to the value of over $42, 900

Temperance in Ohio.

One year ago it was plain to every thinking
man that 1t was not prohibition, but the success
of the free-whisky Democracy for which the
third partyites, in their misguided zeal, were
striving Effective local prohibition is prac-
tical, and therefore it does not suit these ultra
political Prohibitiorists. Their ideas Of reform
too comprehensive to be confined within the
limits of municipal corporations. They do not
believe in putting prohibition in spots where
it will do the most good, but would prefer, il
they could, to spread it out thin all over the

operative Local prohibition Tor local option) has

A Good Outlook for IRON Workers.

PITTsBURG, June 1S.-The signing of the
scale by the iron manufacturers has produced
feeling of security in all branches of business.
1t is the first time in the history of the associa-
ton that the scale has been signed SO early in the
summer, and its effect scarcely be estimated
now. 1t is also the first time since 1881 that il
has been signed without fight The coke men
see in this early settlement of the difficulty
summers run, which they scarcely anticipated.
There seems to be but little doubt that large
percentage OF the ovens will continue fired up"
right along. The closing down Of the mills for
short time for repairs will have but small effect
on the output The pig-iron men also look for a
fair trade all summer They do not expect high
prices. but fair ones. The nallers are satisfied
with the outlook. They say the outcome of the
conference will be either the adoption of the
Mngo scale or its signing by the Pittsburg man
ufacturers. In the latter event they claim it
will be fight of skilled against unskilled work
men, and they will soon run out the feeder nail
ers at Wheeling. The manufacturers of the
Mahoning valley have asked for a separate con-
ference for that valley. 1t has not been decided
whether the request will be granted. They
have withdrawn from the Western Iron Associa.
tion because they have never received recogni-
tion on the conference committee.
