Republicans Anxious About Indiana

Republicans Anxious About Indiana.
Gov. Gray, of Indiana, says that the
democrats will carry that state, and there
are very good reasons for thinking they
will. In our dispatches yesterday it was
stated that Mr.. John c. New, the proprie-
tor of the Indianapolis Journal, the repub-
lican organ of Indiana, had agreed that his
printing office should be controlled by
union printers. Mr.. New would never
have agreed to this if he did not believe
that it was ne %ssary to do so to aid in con-
trolling the laSCr vote of the state. He has
been a persistent opponent of the typo
graphical union for years, and his printing
office was what is known as a rat Office.
that is. an Office not controlled by union
printers. When the present campaign be-
gan, he was urged to permit the union
printers to take charge of kS> composing
room, but he declared emphatically that he
would no do SO.
Mr. New is the close friend of Gen. Har-
rison. Indeed, it is stated quite positively
that he was chiefly instrumental in having
Gen. Harrison nominated. His hostility,
therefore, to one of the greatest labor organi-
cations of the country was hurtful to Gen.
Harrison. 1t was argued that if Mr.. New
was hostile to organized labor, Gen. Harri-
son must be also This conclusion was not
of course a logical one, but, in view of GER
tain statements which Gen. Harrison was
reported TO have made relative to the wages
of worliingmen, it was quite generally
accepted.
Mr.. News surrender to the Typographical
union, with the hope of currying favor
with the labor vote, is regarded as indi-
eating that the republican leaders in
Indiana think their chances for success in
that state are desperate. If they are in
doubt about the result, the democrats have
excellent grounds for being very hopeful of
carrying the state.
1t is probable, however, that Mr.. News
change of front respecting the tpyograph-
ical union will not help Gen. Harrison, be-
cause it is apparent that the change was
made for purpose, and not from convic-
ton. The workingmen will hardly accept
it as being genuine, and doubtless they ex-
pect that he will turn out the union printers
as soon as the election is over.
The labor vote of indianapolis is, as q
general thing, hostile to Gen. Harrison, and
| nothing that either he or his friends can do
will likely influence any considerable por-
ton of it TO support him. Without fair
| share of that vote it is about impossible for
| him to carry his state

A Courageous Reporter

The reports of the beginning and progress
of the epidemic of yellow fever in the in
fected portions of Florida, which have been
published by the MORNING NEWS, have
been about the best that have appeared in
any newspaper in the country. They have
been very full and as accurate as it was
possible to make them under the circum-
stances. They have been furnished by Mr..
S. A. Adams, who is in charge of the
Florida bureau of the MORNING News.
Mr.. Adams is a native of Swanton, VT ,
and is about So years old. He was educated
at Norwich University at Northfield and
at the Methodist Episcopal Seminary at
Montpelier. He also received a business
education at Eastman's business college.
He began his business career in Boston, but
not being entirely satisfied, he returned to
his native town, and secured an interest in
book and newspaper business. Believing
that Florida offered good field for an en-
terprising and energetic man, he located at
Sanford, in that state, in 1879, and estab-
lished a newspaper. This he conducted
with considerable succes IS for several years
In 1886 he sold his newspaper and removed
to Jacksonville, and became the SAVANNAH
MORNING NEWS business agent for Florida.
Soon afterward the MORNING NEWS, on
account of its increasing Florida circu!a'
lation, decided to establish news bureau
at Jacksonville, and Mr.. Adams was selected
to conduct it. He has remained in charge of
the bureau ever since, and has done excel
lent work.
When the fever made its appearance in
Jacksonville Mr.. Adams determined to re-
main at his post. He sent his family north,
and prepared himself in other respects for
his unpleasant and dangerous duties. He
fully realized the perils of his undertaking
but he manifested no hesitation, and at nc
time has he given any indication
of a desire to abandon his post. He
has discharged his duty faithfully
and conscientiously, and has fairly and
courageously earned whatever rewards he
has received. He has been abroad at al
hours Of the day and night in search of
news. He has gone into homes where vic
tins of the fever were, and has accompanied
the physicians in their visits TO the hospi
tails. Thus far he has escaped the fever
and 1t is TO be hoped that he viii pas:
I rough the epidemic untouched by the
plague.
The fact that he is very temperate mar
is one reason, doubtless, why he has re-
tanned his health. He has, of course, taken
precautions. Quinine ana purgatives have
been his rophylactics, but how far they
have Insisted him in warding off the fever
1t is of course impossible to say. Other.
who have resorted to the same preventive.
have not been so successful.
The whole country is, in measure in
debted TO Mr. Adams because he has fur
nished the greater part of the fever new,
that has appeared in the various newspa
pers of the country. Others in Jacksonville
have shown equal courage and conscientious
devotion to duty, but only few, if any, Of
them have sustained such close relation,
with the public.

"HEAP DAMN FOOL"
Red Shirt, at the White House, Make
an Epigram.
From the NelD YorI; Herald.

From the Nel1 Yorh; Herald.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30.-A laughable story is
told in political circles here anent the recent
visit of Red Shirt the Ogallala chief, to the
white house on Thursday last. Red Shirt was
one of the Indian members of the Wild West
show whom the President invited to call upon
him. The Ogallala chief expected long chat
with the Great Father, and prepared himself
for regular pow-wow. Great was his disgust,
therefore, when the President merely shook his
hand and politely passed him on to make room
for the other members of the company. The
interpreter, who noticed his disappointment.
sought to comfort him by saying that the Great
Father was very busy and that Red Shirt had
been fortunate to see him at all. He concluded
by saying that sometimes the pale faces came
to Washington and wait an entire moon before
seeing the President, to which Red Shirt re-
piled: ''Humph, white man heap damn fool. d"
When Red Shirts observation was repeated to
a distinguished United States senator who has
been continually bounded for office, that gentle
man dryly remarked. RED Shirt may in the
past have been guilty of many offenses against
society, but his ability to size up the average
politician entities him not only to respect but

At the big Blaine blowout IN New York
the other night, some republican authorities
state that 1000 900 people were present OF
course this statement is not true, as the polo
grounds, where Blaine spoke, will not hold
more than half that number. Other repub-
hcan authorities estimate the crowd at
10000, aud misunderstood persons say it
footed up about $4,000. When the oftic al
returns are in, perhaps it will be found that
there were about 1900 present.

In the case of Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas
Smith, of New York, marriage
certainly has proved a failure. Smith
is wealthy builder, and it is
said that he beats his wife, and has
even stabbed her with a knife. Mrs. Smith,
on the other hand, INDUCES too freely in
grape juice, and does not attend to her
household duties as a faithful housewife
should. The reason their marriage is a
failure is because they are such stupendou
failures themselves.

Sunburn Without Heat.
From Nature


lrOnwOrkers, glassWorkerS and others
are constantly exposed to a heat of 4UJ
or $50 degrees Fahrenheit, and yet do
not become burned, and there can be
little doubt that the enormous radiation
from heated rocks and valleys, in addi-
ton to the direct rays of the sun, make
up an amount of heat far greater than Is
ever experienced on even very
sunny snow slope, and yet one
does not become sunourned. No
doubt the surface of the snow
reflects and disperses much heat, but
certainly far less than it receives, as
heat rays are absorbed and rendered
latent by the snow melting and evapO-
ration. Experience fully rorroborates
this, Tor one may lie on ones back and
freely expose tue lace or long periods
to the sun ana yet remain unburned.
There must, therefore, be some other
factor in sunburn than heat alone.
In discussing the subject with Prof.
Tyndall he addict the very interesting
and significant fact that he was never
more burned on snow than while ex-
perimenting with the electric light at
the North Foreland lighthouse, where
there WAS no heat sufficient to produce
such an effect.
! am aware that sometimes, in pecu--
liar conditions of the atmosphere. the
direct suns rays will burn. | have met
with some singular instances where
several persons have been burned on
the same day, even in England, who had
never previously suffered in that way
l am further aware that sometimes, not
always, in q dead calm on a ship deck.
one may be severely sunburned, and
in boating the same may occasionally
happen.
Masks and wells have long been used
as a protection on snow, and are more
or less successful, brown wells and
glasses in my experience being the
most efficient. As bearing up this
may mention that friend of mine, at
ter an ascent on snow, had an enormous
~ swollen face, and | observed that in
the general swelling there were many
pits and depressions, and that each pit
correspondent to a freckle. The irritat-
ing rays had been intercepted by the
brown color of the freckleS,
