f. A. MERRILL. called by certain African
tribes Little Living stone" has come to this
country from Bechuanaland to sell valuable
collection of elephants tuskS. He says that the
Queen of Tongaland with whom England has
just completed treaty, is the original of Hag-
CARDS .She.' She Is handsome woman IN
feature and not very dark in complexion
DR.. WARREN G. PRIEST, of St Louis, de-
nounces the idea that hewing gum is aid to
digestion He says "Any well-infor med physi-
ologist will deny this at once. Chewing gum.
produces flow of saliva into the sto mach at
time when 1t is not needed by that organ This
saliva burdens the stomach and forces it to alb
normal action to get rid of it, and at the sa me
time the sallvary glands are robbed of the Secre-
ton and obliged to do doubled work to produce
the saliva necessary for mastication and diges
ton. So far as the stomach is concerned, chew
ing gum IS as injurious as chewing tobacco"
PROMINENCE having been given in several
quarters to report that Lord Lyons was re-
ceived into the Roman Catholic Church while in
state of Inconsistencies, and therefore not of
his own free viii, it may be WELL says Life, Lon
don, to state again. with all emphasis. that the
late peers change of faith was long premedl-
tated. and was naturally furthered by the per
suason OF those of his relatives who profess the
older faith. To say that the Duke Of Norfolk
and other members of his family used their best
endeavors to convert their kinsman to their own
creed is merely to credit them with having done
what is regarded as the most elementary duty of
all true Catholics but this is very different
matter from charging them, by implication,
with completely in discreditable trick and ac-
cusing them Of juggling with their relative on
his deathbed Such suggestion is so obviously
the outcome of bgotry and prejudice as to be
scarcely worthy of serious REPUTATION.
EVERYBODY knows the poem beginning,
'"Twas the night before Christmas. when all
fboh of af.1pa ipv
not even a mouse but very few know anything
about the author or his family The poem is
brought to mind by the fact that Mrs. James
A. Young. who died recently in Washington,
was the widow of the gentleman who wrote the
familiar lines. Mr.. Young born in Taural,
a little town in Maryland. about twenty miles
from Washington, and was first a physician
and then artist Finally he entered the
Episcopal Church, and became clergyman.
He died in Washington some years ago. When
his widow died recently, she left all her hus-
bands manuscripts to DR.. Noble Young, her
brother in-law, and they are being examined
with the view of seeing what can be done with
them. There are some unpublished poems
among the papers, but none of them are likely
to be as famous as the story of Santa Claus.

and enthusiastic campaign, giving it the same
tremendous, conquering force and the same
unerring Judgment, which has placed him IN
such q prominent position at the bar Mr..
Butler has entangling alliances with factions,
and he has always been true to his party IN
every contest giving literally of his money and
preferment, for he has never sought it, and we
presume will not now do so unless called by his
fellow citizens, in which he would doubt
coming fight is to be no childs play If we win,
must not only carry the enthusiastic
portion of our party; but the conservative
masses also. Can not Mr.. Butler do this better
than any other man in the STATED And. having
won, what grand Governor he would make
one of whom we could feel justly proud, and
who would be guided in his official conduct by
the highest motives and who would be stronger
at the end of his administration than when he
began it. The Banner is for the man who
knows how and has the courage to win victories.
Is not John NJ. Butler that man, and would not
his nomination strengthen the partya
The Indianapolis journal. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1867-1904, 1888-01-02

THE Greencastle Banner, as will be seen
from an extract therefrom in another column,
suggests the Hon. John M. Butler as q good
candidate for Govern or before the Republican
State convention. The Journal heartily in
dorses the merits, fitness and qualifications or
Mr.. Butler for Governor, for any other
place within the gift of the people of Indiana.
He is an earnest, re alous and able worker; he
has never held an office, or been an ayowed
candidate for one, yet he has been in the
front ranks battling for the success of
the Republican party and Republican princi-
Piles for many years. His reputation as a law
yer is not only Statewide, but Nationwide
and if elected Governor he would reflect credit
upon the Office. Whether his name goes be-
fore the convention or not he will be found
working for the success of the ticket And
Mr. Buffers candidate, like that of the Jour
nal, will be the nominee of the convention,
whomsoever that may be.

/, 1884, Thomas jefferson, Arthur Lee, James
Monroe and Samuel Hardy, in behalf of Vir-
ginia, executed deed transferring to the
United States all title of Virginia to the
Northwest Territory, but expressly excepting
the rights of settlers under the grant to Gen.
Clark, known as the Illinois grant. These are
the historical facts alleged on behalf of Clarks-
vile, and they may be true as far as they go,
but other facts would probably invalidate
them as basis for legal claim The records
show that the General Assembly of Virginia
did pass the act for laying off GAINESVILLE in
1888, and that the grant to Clark or l5O, 900
acres was expressly excepted in the deed made
by Jefferson and Others on the part Of Vir-
ginia to the United States, in 1874, of the
territory northwest of the Ohio. In the doc
uments at hand we do not find any evidence
of the extinguishment of Clark's title, but
probably it was extinguished by subsequent
treaties with the Indians or by the act of
Congress of May z, 1900. creating the Terri
tory of Indiana. OF course no useful purpose
could be served by reviving the old grant,
even if basis exists for it, and the attempt,
if seriously contemplated. can result in moth
ing more than an historical discussion. We
hardly think GAINESVILLE will succeed in estab-
fishing its independe nee, although it is said
there is an intention to carry the matter be-
fore the courts.

Tue railroad traffic at this city during the
year 1887, as indicated by the number of
loaded freight cars handled here, was largely
in excess of any previous year. The total
number of cars received and forwarded was
s74, s12, an increase of 55.97 over the pre-
ceding year, and of 36,S9S over the largest
year in the history of the CITY. The number
of freight cars transferred on the Bolt road
during the year was 5S5, $50, being 97,033
more than in 1886. These figures indicate
an immense tonnage of railroad traffic, and by
comparison with former years show a
gratifying increase of business.

THE CASE OF GAINESVILLE.

A curious phase of the home-rule question
has sprung up in the town Of GAINESVILLE. this
State. The town is situated on the Ohio
river, in the extreme southwest corner Of
Clark county, about midway between Jeffer-
-sonville and New Albany. The story goes
that the people of GAINESVILLE, having become
dissatisfied with the Entertainments of rail-
road companies, ETC., under State laws, pro-
pose to revert to first principles and assert
their rights as an independent government,
which, they claim, the charter of their town
entities them to. The claim rests on the fact
that in October, 1888, Virginia caused town
to be surveyed on the north bank of the falls
of the Ohio, described as being situated in the
