SIM coY,s RELEASE.

History Of the Case as Disclosed by an Ex-
animation Of the Papers on File.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Sept S.-There seems to be
desire on the part Of certain Indianapolis
papers to mislead the public concerning
the release of Sim Coy from the peni-
tentiary. A glance at copies of the Sentinel
and News received here last week reveals
the fact that their editors ars either ex-
treInely forgetful or are determined to per-
vert the facts in the case. The News of
Monday last. in its editorial on Coy, says
his pardon was recommended by Repub-
licans and Republicans only; that similar
petition was filed with the Cleveland ad-
ministration, but not acted on, and plainly
charges that Coy's pardon was owing to
Republican scheming and inception. These
statements and insinuations are not sus-
tanned by the record. The Journal CORE
spondent yesterday visited the Attorney
generals Office and examined the papers on
file there.
The first paper bearing on the case was
the petition for remission of the fines and
costs against Coy, not for his pardon. as
stated by the News. 1t was accompanied
by letter from Charles M. Cooper, one of
Coy's attorneys, of which the following is
a copy:
INDIANAPOLIS, April 10, 1889.
BENJAMIN Harrison. President Washington, d. c.:
My Dear Sir-At the request OF Simeon Coy
prepared and circulated the inclosed petition.
asking you for the remission of the fine and costs
standing against him ia the United States Court.
Permit me to say that every man TO whom pre-
sented this petition signed 1t without hesitation.
and could have had many more signatures II
the time had been taken, as 1t seems to be the
universal sentiment in this community that the
fine and costs be remitted. Hoping it will receive
your favorable consideration, am
Your obedient servant, CHARLES NJ COOPER.
The petition prepared and circulated by
Mr.. Cooper, is as follows:
To Benjamin Harrison. President Of the United
States:
We, the undersigned citizens of the State of
Indiana, respectfully petition you for the
mission of the fine and costs assessed against
Simeon Coy, amounting to $719.1S. Said
Simeon Coy was sentenced upon the Sd day Of
February, 1888, to eighteen months in Indiana
northern prison, and was fined in the sum of
800 by the judge Of the United States District
Court, for the State Of Indiana upon q charge OF
conspiracy:

CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA

The solemnities of the dedication and
opening of this university, great in con-
ception, endowment and representation,
of the Roman Catholic church, in whose
fostering care its destiny is assured, will
take place in Washington, November Is.
The ceremony of dedication will be con-
Quoted by Cardinal Gibbon. The pontif-
cal mass will be celebrated at II a. M.
with a sermon by Right Rev. Il. Gilmore,
bishop Of Cleveland. The university
courses will be opened at p. m, and an
Grafton delivered by Rt. Rev.. L. Spaul-
ding, bishop of Peoria, and Lstin poem by
Prof Schroeder. The Roman Catholic
church has been the originator of some OF
the largest universities in the world. Her
intention to hold no inferior place in
America in profess1Jna' and scientific ed
ucation is alike creditable to the enlight-
ment of her dignitsries and priesthood,
and the progress and wealth of her mil
lions Of worshipers in this country.

THE Democratic papers are now charg-
ing that the Republicans are trying to
steal the senators from the new state OF
Montana. According to the latest returns
the Republicans have elected the congress
men by about 1000 majority and have a
small majority in the Legislature. The
Democrats have the governor by about
800 majority. How they obtained this
majority is shown by the following:
AS taken from the Butte City Inter
Mountain, the following printed slip was
handed to the election officers and judges
at the polls in Deer Lodge county by over
400 employees of the Anaconda Mining
company: 81 can not read or write the
English language and wish to vote the
Democratic ticket" The great Anaconda
mine is owned and controlled BY Demo
Gratis, and Of course the employees were
compelled to vote the Democratic tic ket.
To be sure they did not want to, perhaps,
but that made 10 difference.
This shows pretty clearly how the Dem
ocrats obtained their alleged majority and
what basis there is for the charge that
the Republicans are now trying to steal
the two U. S. senators and the legislature.

SENATOR REAGAN OF Texas says he will
oppose the admission OF New Mexico,
because there were no democrats in the
constitutional convention that framed the
constitution. If Senator Reagan chooses
to uphold the bosses and ringsters that
run the democratic central committee OF
the territory in opposition to the wishes
OF very large majority Of New Mexico's
citizens of both parties, why Of course
that can not be helped, but We think,
that New Mexico will be admitted any
way, as soon as senators and members OF
the house are made fully acquainted with
the excellent constitution adopted and
the general wish and desire of the people
of the territory for statehood.

The people of Idaho hope that the COM
ing congress will give them permission TO
erect a state government, and it IS prob
able that their request will b. granted.
Wyoming has hopes to be admitted, and
New Mexico is knocking at the door.
Wyoming's prospect of admission is not
as good as Idaho's, but it is better than
New MeNicO's. New Mexico has larger
population and it is better able to support
Il state government than either Wyoming
or Idaho; but there are several objections,
not applicable to'the others, which will be
raised against the admission of New Mex
leo. The people are divided among them
selves in respect to whether New Mexico
should be admitted or not. The Dem
oCrats, with one or tWO exceptions, took
no part in the convention which framed
the New Mexico constitution, and, If they
do not openly oppose it, they will give the
admission project little CT no encourage
ment. Besides, there is an impression IN
the east that, because of the character OF
its population, New Mexico should not be
admitted. There is good deal OF error
in this. The people of New Mexico are
we'll able to maintain state government.

The great majority of the citizens OF
New Mexico are in favor of statehood.
Should congress not give US an enabling act
before, the elections to be held in Novem-
Der, 1890, for the adoption of the consti-
tuition recently framed and full state
ticket, will demonstrate this fact fully.
The people of New Mexico are in all re-
spects fit for statehood they desire to be-
come a state; they are abundantly able to
support q state government. The latter
means prosperity, advancement, immi-
grafton and an influx OF capital; it means
the speedy settlement OF our land titles;
it means home rule and home appoint
ments. Let US have the state OF New
Mexico by all means.

The people Of Wyoming are to vote
upon the adoption Of their state consti-
tuition on November 6, next. Accord
ing to its provisions, women can vote ;
the Australian system Is proposed; trusts
are prohibited; procuring votes for meas
TRES in the Legislature by swapping such

officials receiving salaries fixed by law.
The constitution is very good and pro-
gressive one and it looks as if it would
carry, although there is some opposition
to it on account Of its woman suffrage

SATURDAY, the 10th OF October, was the
anniversary Of the discovery Of America
by Columbus. In three years from that
day, on the 40Oth anniversary thefe will
be more celebrating on this continent in
both North and South America, and by
more people, than this part of the world
has ever known for any political event.
This reminds us what a power there is
in Christmas to arrest the attention and
command the celebration Of hundreds OF
millions of all nations over the whole
world.

SOUTH DAKOTA has elected its two SEN

the United States for boring artesan
wells. The chances are, now that she
has two senators, that the appropriation
will be forthcoming. New Mexico also
wants an appropriation for artesian wells,
but the chances are that the territory will
not obtain such an appropriation until
admitted as state and having couple
of United States senators who will work
