blind prejudice evolved out of the dastardly
incident to the injury of anyone on trial; but
there should come serious feeling that it is
unpatriotic and dangerous to say or write any
thing that would serve to incite a fool or q
villain to such or similar methods Of revenge.
And there should also be created
profound and permanent feeling that the
only safety to individuals and society lies in
the persistent, unvarying, appropriated,
faithful and even enforcement of law. IL it
be found out who sent the explosive, the law
should be indicated against him in such
manner az to be a deterrent to other evil
disposed persons. which is the interest society
has in all law over and above that of the
possible or probable reformation OF
criminal into well-ordered and law abiding
member of the community.

An error in the makeup" of the article
on Natural Gas in yesterdays Journal made it
almost impossible for the hurried reader to
understand what was intended. What we
tried to say was this:
THE Indianapolis Natural-gas Company,
with a fine supply of gas ready for consump-
ton, in an open and business-like manner asks
the Council for conference with it's commit
tee relative to proposed changes in the existing
ordinance, none of which will affect the price
of gas or the safety and security of city
or citizens The Journal has re-
spectfully declined to 60 into the business,
seemingly so congenial to others, of de-
nouncing 'sneaks,' aud sscoundrels,' and
robbers the business men who compose
the Indianapolis Natural-Gas Company. Who
they are was shown by the roster of the stock
holders published yesterday. Certainly many
of the names in that list are of reputable men
men devoted to the best interests of Indian
apolis; men with their capital and enterprise
fully enlisted in Indianapolis-the equals of
any to be found in other companies, even the
Gas Trust. We cannot see that anything is
to be gained by charging these men with a
desire to plumber or to expose their own and
other peoples lives and property to danger by
the criminal of unsafe and untested
material"

THE Louisville Commercial, which has a
habit of telling the truth about matters and
things in Kentucky, says:
Kentucky suffers from lack of educational
facilities. The ignorance among the native
population, particularly in the remote and
mountain counties, is appalling. Still, in the
face of this crying need for more schools and
better schools, the Democratic leaders are
opposing the Blair BILL which would give to
Kentucky thousands of dollars for school pur-
poses and the money would come from the
useless surplus that is daily piling up in the
Treasury"
Arrangements are making for celebrating
the semi-centennial of the common school
system in Kentucky on the 10th of February.
This is we'll enough as far as it goes, and
shows the friends of education are not asleep.
But it is a pretty notorious fact that the COM
mon school system in Kentucky, as in most
Of the Southern States, is in a very dilapi-
dated condition. With poor schools and few
of them. poor teachers poor pay and poor ac-
commodations, the poor children are in a poor
way for education. The Blair bill proposes to
attempt remedy for this state of affairs or
at least to assist the States in lettering che
situation. 1t is easy enough to understand
why Bourbon Democratic politicians should
oppose the measure but their opposition
ought to strengthen it.

rather expensive summer toilets, and, as the

THERE are 4, 700 subscribers to the Con-
sumers' Gas Trust and we venture to say that
at least 1850 of them subscribed with no
idea that the Trust was to usurp the monopo-
~ of supplying natural gas to the city.
and to keep any and all other compa-
MES out They subscribed to make the
Trust effective in compelling the acceptance
of ordinance rates by any one who wanted to
sell gas. That purpose was grandly achieved,
and the Trust will be able to come into the
city as powerful competitor to keep down
the price of gas to the lowest possible limit.
Any other purpose is diversion of the
original Trust.

The editorial in yesterdays Sentinel upon
the internal machine sent to Judge Woods
was what any honorable newspaper would
have written and printed. The only occasion
for comment upon it consists in the fact that
heretofore the Sentinel has lent its columns

with the tally sheet forgery cases; judge jury,
lawyers and witnesses. To imagine that

LOWRY-WHITE.

The Lowry White contest, now under con-
sideration by the House committee on cleo
tions, has all the earmarks and elements of a
claim absolutely without merit. The records
of Congress will show many groundless con-
tests, but it would be hard to find another so
devoid, from beginning to end, of single
element of justice or manhood as the one re-
ferred to. 1t is the last effort of chronic
Democratic ofice-holder, and in making it the
contestant seems to have burned his bridges
behind him and sacrificed his last remnant of
manly character. He has no more right to
the seat than he has to the presidency, and
the committee on elections will disgrace itself
if it gives his claim serious consideration.
The fact is that Lowry had become very un
popular in the Twelfth district, while Captain
White is one of the best known men
in the district, and exceptionally
popular. Even a less popular man
could have defeated Lowry in the last cleo
ton. Captain White defeated him by nearly
1900 majority 1t was as plain case of re-
pudiation and as crushing defeat as was
ever administered to any man by the people.

PRESIDENT cLEvELAND's FUTURE.
Rumor that He Is TO BE President of the
baltimore and Ohio.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 16.-The rather fire.
quent visits which have been made TO the
White House and Oak View by Senator Cor
man during the past nine days have been the
cause OF not little speculation here. The
result of the election had, il was thought,
settled for some time all the political ques-
tions that would call for repeated conferences
between the president and the senator from
Maryland
Many wild guess has been made rs to the
cause Of these meetings, but it was not until
last night that the first substantial rumor
made its appearance A prominent Balti-
morean was in the city and he is responsible
for tho dissemination Of the story that Soma
tor German was endeavoring to so arrange
matters that President Cleveland should DO
elected president OF the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad company.
The annual meeting of the stockholders Of
the road will be held on Monday next and the
president Of the road will be chosen by the
directors about Dec. 10 This plum, it has
been hinted could be so shaken that it would
drop in the lap of Senator German, but that
| gentleman's friends say he prefers politics TO
railroading.
Knowing that he could secure the position
says Dame Rumor, the senator decided, if
agreeable TO Mr. Cleveland, to throw his
weight and influence in his behalf. How the
affair will be adjusted cannot as yet be
stated, but it is believed that the present
temporary organization, with Samuel Spen-
Ger at its head. will be continued for another
six months, and that possibly in June next
Mr. Cleveland will be elected president.
