A MUNICIPAL DISGRACE.

The attempt of the City Council to repeal

disgust. For years the cow was sacred AMI
NAL in Indianapolis. and roamed through high
ways and byways at her own sweet viii, and
found the gates to private premises but slight
barriers to her devastating course. The owner
of garden, or lawn, or choice shrubbery, had
no right she was bound to respect. She
blocked the sidewalks up, pastured in the
parks, broke into front yards, foraged among
huckster-wagons and continued a predatory
career until the public rose in revolt, and de-
clared that she must CO."
The cow had many friends in Council who,
apparently, labored under the impression that
the streets were made for her and not for man,
and it was only after long struggle that she
was barred out. For two years, now, the COW
has been in subsection. Miles of fence have
been taken down, lawns beautifed in man.

streets improved in various ways as a result
of this ordinance. The people who regard
these things as more desirable than cow
pasture surroundings. rejoiced at their free
dom from bovine domination, when 10. the
animal was at tho front again and almost in
control.
The fact that so many members Of the Coun-
Gil show themselves willing to turn Indianapo-
lis into cow-iot is simply disgrace to the
city. 1t is a manifestation of that narrow,
selfish. short-sighted policy which has so often
stood in the way of the city's improvement
and advancement The same spirit which
looks upon the COW as a proper feature of

this petty ILL berality, but enterprising citi-

THE DEMOCRATIC RECORD.


The Sentinel disposes Of the war record Of
Mr.. Voorhees, and the Democratic party with
q few eyasive words aud graceful wave of
the hand and says: 1.-THE real question of the
hour is shall the war taxes be reducedY" The
tariff question is one of the questions of the
hour, but not the only one. Not to mention
others, q very important one is whether the
Democratic party shall be permitted to escape
from its record and to get . new lease OF
power by means Of fraud in the South and
false issues and false pretenses in the North.
The record to which we propose to hold the
Democratic party relates to State as well as
national affairs. It would be only too glad to
have the people ignore the southern prison
swindle, the Insane Hospital infamies, the
rascally transactions of the Harrison Sullivan
ring, the Green Smith usurpation, the tally
sheet forgeries, and other crimes perpetrated
in its interest and Endorsed by its leaders.
No doubt the Democracy would be very glad
to have all those issues buriedsa and forgotten.
The State convention ignored them and the
party organ does not refer to them. The
Journal will endeavor to supply this omission
by an occasional reference to them, and at
the Same time will not neglect the tariff ques-
ton.
It is not surprising that the Democratic
party should try to get away from its war
record. 1t has been engaged in that occupa-
ton for nearly twenty-five years, and has sue
cseded to an extent that would not have been
deemed possible twenty-five years ago. It
has reached point where it presumes on the
forgetfulness of the American people so far as
to denounce every reference to its reasonable
war record as waving the bloody shirt and
!, the recital of the disloyal acts and utterances
of its leaders as ''blackguardism." At the
recent rate of progress it will not be long till
it will be claiming that the war for the pres
ervation of the Union was not only blunder
but a crime; and that the only patriotic party
in the country is the one which opposed the
| war; lno journal does not snare IN the magma
nimity or the indifference that would permit
the Democracy to put forth such claims,
snd when majority of the American people
shall be willing to tolerate them they will be
far gone in political degradation. We hold
that the war for the Union was not only
right, but righteous, and that the objects and
principles for which it was waged are as vital
to-day as they were twenty five years ago. Ii
they were worth fighting for then they are
worth preserving now, and they cannot be
preserved by retaining in power party
which opposed the war and is still opposed to
the principles for which it was fought The
American people may find too late, that they
have been lulled into q false security in re-
gard to the ultimate plans and purposes of the
party that opposed the war. The tariff ques-
ton may prove to be stalking horse.

AS the Journal has pointed out before. the
men who have sprinkled the streets by pri-
vate enterprise are not anxious for the city to
assume control of the business, and for that
reason their bids for ths work should not be
accepted without careful investigation as the
best that can be. done. 1t might be well for
councilmen who believe that Indianapolis has
lived past the cross roads stage and should en-
