QUEEN WIGS GREAT DAY.


"MF. Harrison"
"Oh, call me Rus. Pop always does
and like 1t better, you know, anyhow"
The queen raised her eyebrows slightly
and smiled In her kind, motherly way.
"Well, Rus, then" she began
again, when he interrupted her and
said:
That's right. What's the use in be-
ing formal at q little family party like
this? hate formality, at any rate. 1

That sort. The boys Just waltz in and do
as they please, dig or no dig. But you
were going to say something. What was

Queen Victoria seemed little bit an
noyed and for Q moment did not answer.
Then she said:
"Why, I was about to remark that"
Excuse me, but do you know that at
times you remind me Of ma! Yes, you
do. Just now, for instance, you had an
expression that I've often noticed on her
face when she's been talking to me-"
"Ahem!" said the Prince Of Wales.
"Oh, it's . fact, Bert" said Russell,
turning quickly to the prince, who sat on
his left. 1.-THE resemblance Is positively

A PLUCKY boy, aged eighteen, living
in Gordon county, Georgia, had the
boldness to tear off the mask from a
White Cap that had been Outraging his
father and mother. The fend proved
to be Albert Quin, neighboring saloon
keeper. The elder Burns had taken an
active part in late election on the Ii
cense question, against license. The
Governors attention has been called to
the facts and he has offered 800 reward
for each of the White Caps. The st.
Louis Republic, speaking of the case,
says: "This saloon business is respon-
sible for more White Cap outrages and
race wars than all other causes COM
bined. 1t is more of a problem than
any other thing, and must be dealt with
before others can be dealt with salts

The St. Louis Republic, "a Demo-
cratic paper with the old Missouri
flavor" as the Leavenworth Times calls
it, is advocating federal and Confed-
crate Union, to be composed of all vet
Grams of the civil war who favor peace
and union and wish to bring about
return of perfect brotherhood of all the
United States" What is the matter
with the union made about this time in
1862 General Grant held a convention
in or about Appomattox and took In
every confederate present. 1t was O
kind of absorbing process, but it was
the only thing that could be done at the
time, or that can be done now to form a
perfect brotherhood of all the United
States" 1t seems to be working right
well, and the bonds of the brotherhood
are getting stronger every day. In less
than another twenty-fOur years the st..
Louis Republic will come in.

ing the last five days only of the pres
ent session of the board of County Com
missiOners; but this would not have
been effectual unless the board of Coun-
ty Commissioners had held off the grant
ing of licenses until within FIVE days of
the close of its present session.
This statement of facts places the re-
sponsibility where it belongs. The eau
Gus action of the Democrats and their
solid vote in Council prevented sus-
pension of the rules and the passage of
the ordinance last Monday night, where
by the city loses $4,000. Even if Coun-
Gilman Davis had voted with the Repub-
icans, as he should have done, they still
could not have suspended the rules
without some Democratic votes. Like
all other progressive and reformatory
measures, this will have to be passed
over Democratic opposition.
So far as Republicans are concerned,
the Journal repeats what it has said be-
fore: that any Republican member of
either branch who assists directly or in
directly in the defeat of this measure
ought not to be reelected. Councilman
Davis has already incurred censure by
voting with the Democrats on Monday
night, and will continue to deserve it
unless he shall vote for the ordinance on
its final passage. 1t is to be hoped no
other Republican member of either
branch will court defeat by voting
against if.

COMMENT AND OPINION.

Young Mr.. Thurman, the son of the "Old
Roman" expects to get the Democratic
nomination for Governor of Ohio. If he
does, it is reasonable to suppose that Demo-
cratic papers will not make so many sneer-
ing allusions to ''sons of their fathers" as
they are making now.-Peoria Transcript.
ONE thing seems certain, and that is that
the leaders of the Democratic party can
stop these murders and outrages any day
they have a mind to do so; and having this
must be held accountable for this state of
affairs to the people OF the country.-New
York Press.
AN American born and bred would hardly
fill the chair of the dead and gone POpes
satisfactorily, especially If he was an
American in sentiment and training as well
as by birth. Such one would be unfit for
tho delicate task of maintaining many of
the traditions of the Vatican.-Philadel-
phia Telegraph.
DIsFRANCHIsEMENT by statute is not
practicable. 1t would only defer the solu-
ton of the race problem little, only to
bring the South face to face with something
much worse. The solution lies in accepting
the negro as he is and as the South has
made him, and elevate him.-Philadelphi
North American.
The larger and better feeling in every
religious denomination at the South must
ineS itably be in favor of admitting the ne
brother in Christian fellowship and privi-
leges. The Presbyterians have taken the
lead in this matter, and noble lead it is.

TIE Salvation Army case should be ap-

To steal a ring from dead body in Cleve-
land would be sufficiently punished by a
brief term in the work-house. But to steal
a ring from dead body at Johnstown, with
ten thousand other, dead bodies lying

reorganization of society, was deserving of
death.-Cleveland Leader.

that he will be punished if he tries to sneak

THE COAL MINERS AND THE TARIFF.

Democrats and free-traders are at
tempting to make political capital out of
the coal miners strike at Brazil. The
Sentinel has been harping on it. Sena-
tor Voorhees,, in sending a donation to
the miners, says: "This condition of
things, occurring under the highest pro-
tective tariff ever known in American
history, and repeated more than hun
dred times over in every State in
the Union, makes its own conclusive
argument to every intelligent working
man and workingwoman." The at
tempt to utilize the strike for political
purposes is to be continued by free
trade speakers under the pretense of So
liciting aid for the miners. The aid
should be given to any needed extent,
but we protest against the dishonest at
tempt to make out of the strike capital
for free trade.
Mr.. VOorhees's statement that this
condition of things occurs under the
highest protective tariff ever known in
American history is not susceptible of a
truthful construction. The present duty
on coal is not as high as it has been be-
fore, and the present tariff, as a whole,
lacks much of being the highest ever
known in American history. On the
contrary, during most of our history it
has been higher than tits now.
Under the tariff act of 1883, approved
by Washington, the duty on foreign
coal was cents a bushel; in 1871 it was
raised to cents bushel; in 1902 to A 10
cents; in 1895 to cents; in 1919 to 10
cents; in 1S42 to $1.75 ton; in 1S61it
was made 81 ton; in 1868, $1.10 a ton;
In 1865, S125 a ton; in 1872 it was re-
duced to rs cents ton, which is the
present rate. Estimating twenty EIGHT
bushels to the ton, duty of a cents per
bushel would be more than the present
rate of 70 cents ton. 1t has been high
er than the present rate during most of
our history. Neither is the present tar
iff as whole the highest in our history.
1t has been materially reduced several
times since the war. The fact that SEN
ator Voorhees, has spoken and voted for
bOtn duu lICC UIduc uOcS HUI CntItlO
him to trifle with the truth of history.
Whether the present duty on coal is
exactly what it should be would be hard
to say. If it is sufficient to encourage
the coal-mining industry in this country
and protect it against foreign competi-
tion, then it is high enough, otherwise it
should be increased. Under the present
duty there is some importation of coal,
though not very great. Official statis-
tics show that during the three months
ending June 30, 1888, there were imported
221, ,459 tons, and during the three months
ending Dec. 81, 1888, $50, ,755 tons. The
amount increased from 491, ,473 tons in
1879, to 877,504 tons in 1888. Under these
circumstances the present duty should be
increased rather than diminished. The
condition of the miners and all other la
borers in this country, though not what
we would rejoice to see, is incOmparably
better than it would be under free trade.
The Indianapolis journal., 1889-06-06
THE SALOON LICENSE.

The failure to pass the $3.50 saloon or
dinance is not quite as disastrous as we
supposed, though bad enough. 1t ap-
pears the licenses expire at different
times, and are renewed at different
meetings of the County Commissioners.
Last year 36o licenses were granted, of
which 70 expired in last February. March
and April; III from June to 10, and 166
will expire next September and October.
Those which expired in February, March
and April could not have been reached
by the new ordinance, those which ex-
pired in June might have been, and
those which will expire in September
and October will be, provided the ordi-
nance is passed without further delay.
In other words, the actual loss to the
city by the failure to pass the ordinance
has been $50 each on the III licenses
expiring in June, an aggregate of $17,-
$50.
The responsibility for the failure to
pass the ordinance, and the con-
sequent loss to the city rests on
Gil. Without the votes of some
Democrats in suspending the erulesi sitcould
not have been passed sooner than it is
likely to be. The Governors proclama-
tion was issued May 10, announcing that
the acts of 1889 had gone into effect. The
first regular meeting of the Council held
after that was May 90. Under the rules
the ordinance could have been read the
first time that night, and without sus-
pension of the rules. which requires a
twO-thirds vote; the second reading of
the ordinance would have been June 3,
when the ordinance could have passed.
The first meeting of the Board of Alder
men would be the 10th of June, and
without a suspension of the rules the
second and third reading and passage
would have been the nth of June. After
that it takes, under the new law of 1889,
which changes the old law respecting
the publication of penal ordinances,
fourteen days pu blication of this ordi-
nance before it would go into effect,
thus making it impossible to have put
the ordinance into effect until the Cd day
of July, after the regular term of
the board of County Commits
sioners shall have expired. Thus
it will be seen that without
suspension of the rules, which requires
two thirds vote of the Common Council
and likewise of the Board of Aldermen,
including the votes of some Democrats,
the Sd day of July will have arrived be-
fore the liquor ordinance would have
gone into effect, even if it made the
most rapid progress possible under the
rules of the two bodies, which have been
in force many years. The Democrats
caucused about the measure, and unani-
mously agreed to oppose it. That being
the case, nothing could be done, and the
city has lost $1,000 that should DE in
the treasury. Had the Democrats agreed
to a suspension of the rules. both in the
Common Council and Board of Alder
men at the regular sessions thereof-and
it would have been unsafe to have
passed the ordinance at any other than a
regular session-there would have been
just enough time to have reached the
licenses granted in the June term dur

Probably he has not done SO personally,

presumably with his knowledge and con-

a presumption that Senator Voorhees,
procured the publication of his Brazil

Some years ago / was in Indianapolis,

quaintance of a very pleasant and intelli-
gent gentleman who was a member OF the
Senate of Indiana, Mr.. John COburn. He
had not reached middle life. With fresh
ruddy complexion and healthy look and
vigorous step and bearing of early man.
hood, he had an abundance of white hair
on his head that indicated man of at least
four-score years. | could not understand
how SO youthful man in personal appear
ance should have such remarkably white
hair. Curiosity led me, after a very agree
able and sociable acquaintance of several
days, to ask: why is it, Mr.. Coburn, that
as young man as you are should have SO
white head of hairi" He answered at
once, 30 Mr.. Briggs, there is a terrible
story connected with my white hair" And
he told it to me as follows: "A few years
ago / was in the cattle business. shipping
them by carloads to the East. One night
i had a train of several carloads, and had
stopped on a side-track to let a passenger
train pass, and in getting on to a car in the
dark my foot slipped and for some miles 1
was supported by one foot from falling on
the track, where must have been immedi-
ately crushed to death. My strength was
exhausted. i thought must die. / could
not hold on any longer. The train was
stopped. i was discovered and rescued
alive. My hair when l attempted to get on
the car was black as night. When I was
rescued it was as white as snow"

WE congratulate the city of Terre
Haute on the action Of the Standard Oil
Company in purchasing ten acres of
ground there for the purpose Of erecting
thereon 3,5OO-barrel oil tank. This is
unmistakable proof that the oil find in
Terre Haute is regarded by experts as
valuable, and the best evidence yet fur
nished of the Importance of the discov-
cry. We take it for granted that Terre
Haute is in no danger of being swal-
lowed whole-body, boots and breeches
by the Standard Oil Company, and
that the city will be able to defend itself
against any steps in that direction. The
Standard Oil Company is no more
selfish, aggressive or acquisitive than
other corporations, and calls for no more
or closer watching. They all require
that. MEANWHILE" says a dispatch,
"Terre Haute capitalists are proposing
that if there is any profit in the find it
shall inure to the benefit of home peo-
pie, and they are organizing against the
Standard, and will apply for franchise
to pipe the city and control the home
market" This is enterprise, and looks
like business. Between the Standard
company and home capital there is no
reason why the Terre Haute oil field
should not be thoroughly developed, as
we hope it will be, to the great advan-
tage of the city. The company will
probably be able to pay its way as it
goes along, and may drop some money
in Terre Haute.
