The stock market to-day continued to show
evidences of q desire on the part of many opera
tors to close out their deals with the end OF the
year, and while the list maintained a firm tone
during most of the day, the volume OF business
was much smaller, and the ATTACKS on special
properties had more effect; while important
advances were all in the low priced specialties
which are Just beginning TO attract attention,
One event of the day which may be SAID to nave
had its legitimate effect was the declaration Of
a dividend on New York Central. which created
widespread disappointment after the high
hopes which have been INDUCED in OF late, and
siderable long stock, with the effect of bringing
NewYork Central down materially ana drag
cling many Of the others down somewhat. At
the same time none of the other Nanderbilts,
except Nickel Plate stock, showed any special
weakness The efforts of the bears 10 the early
dealings were directed more especl ally against
stocks which have had the creates. strength
for some time past, and Omaha and Dstliers
were special marks for their attacks. but while
the latter failed to rally from the depression
brought about Omaha still showed most pro

though 1t was unable to retain ali Oh us III,
nrovement at the close. Changers and Gould
shares gave evidence Of support, which, with
the buying Of Chicago Gas, infused considerable
animation and vigor into the general list during
the forenoon after the first attack. With the
result of establishing fractional advances over
the entire list The withdrawal of buying later
in the day, however, left the market to the
mercies OF the bears, who came umldly 10 the
front again in the late dealings. Among the
specialties which scored the largest gains were

Woman has every right to be represented
at Chicago, and if the women Of Indiana
do not insist on their rights they have not
the spirit that they are usually believed
to have.
If there is one subject on which women
have the sympathy of all decent men
more fully than another, it is that of
woman's right to an opportunity to earn
an honest living by labor. Barred to
large extent from many occupations,
women have sought fields peculiarly their
own and won their bread in them. These
are entitled to as good representation as
mems industries, and women are entitledto
represent them. Neither Governor HovEY
nor any other man has the right to say
they shall not. But women must stand
up for themselves if this proposed wrong
is to be prevented. Men cannot fight sue
cessfully for them if they stand by and do
nothing. They should let themselves be
heard. They should make the governor
understand that, although they cannot
vote, they have brothers, fathers, hus-
bands and SONS who will resent the refusal
to woman of her fair representation at the
coming exposition.

miners, which was found to be inopera-
tive, has been re-enacted in such form
that there can be no question as to its
legality or power. 1t provides for a mine
inspector, who shall decide disputes as to
weights, etc, between employer and en-
ploye, and also determine and enforce
such regulations as are necessary for the
welfare of the miners.
The law compelling corporations to pay
in lawful money at least once in every two
weeks the amount due each employe for
services and making it unlawful for such
a corporation to sell merchandise 10 any
employe at higher price than is charged
to others. is a blow at the ''pluck-me"
stores that have been robbing the miners
and others in such an outrageous manner.
In addition to these most important acts
is the law protecting labels, trademark s,
etc, which will be OF vast benefit to trades
unions in the use of their distinguishing
marks; the law putting material men on
the same footing as mechanics or contract
ors in relation to mechanics liens; the
law requiring persons employing females
to furnish suitable seats for their use;
and that measure which was demanded by
every workngman in Indiana, the max
ing of labor day legal holiday.
The law establishing manual training
schools in Indianapolis, while not regarded
as distinctively labor measure, is direct
ly in the interest of the wage earners of
the state.
The fremen, who are class of most
deserving public servants, have been justly
and fairly treated by the law providing
for pensioning them and providing for
their care while disabled and that OF their
families in case of their death.
Taken all together it must be acknowl-
edged that better legislation in behalf of
the workingmen has never been enacted
by any general assembly, and these meas
ures are source of pride to every true
democrat.

more mournful. Manifestly in Massa-
chusetts and other New England states
the movement OF population" is from
the country toward the cities and from
the states to other states. This tendency
in Massachusetts, is marked to an extent
that .46l farms have been given up to de-
cay-have been abandoned; 126,509 acres
are going back to the jungies, and still in
such a state it is shown that population
increased in ten years 475.S5S, while in
Indiana, where everything-farm, factory
and mine-exhibits prosperity and
progress, the increase of population, &C
cording to the census reports, was only
2l4.1O3. 1t is not surprising that there is a
widespread notion that Mr.. PORTER, as a
counter, is not satisfactory. In state
where farms are abandoned to briers,
where the people are deserving them by
thousands, giving them up to wild beasts
and reptiles, it becomes exceedingly diff
cult to comprehend figures showing a
phenomenal increase in population, and
it is not surprising that level headed men
are skeptical; and this tendency to doubt
is indefinitely increased when, as in the
case OF Indiana, where every condition
was favorable for growth in population,
figures are made to antagonize all prudent
estimates.

VIII the Women Submit?

Governor HovEY's reported determine
ton to appoint no women as commission
ers for the worlds fair is about what
might have been expected of him.
Women are not supposed to be of much
value in securing political nominations.
They do not vote. They do not attend
primaries or conventions. Females" are
well enough to make pretty speeches to
when they have accomplished some good
work by their unaided efforts, but when
tics they are usually regarded as super
fuous. The man who is scheming for Of
fee feels the necessity OF disposing his
gifts where they will do the most good.
Why should they be thrown away on
women? 1t would be preposterous, of
course. No practical politician would
think of such thing.
1t was assumed all through the discus
that the matter would be entirely freed
from political influence. The fair is to be
an industrial exposition, and the object
was to exhibit Indiana's industries. In
these woman has prominent and hon.
orable place. In some she has exclusive
possession 1t was supposed that our edu-
cational system, which was so happily
presented at the centennial, would be well
displayed at Chicago. In this, woman is

Negotiation in Labor's Interest,

The acts of the legislature just adj
journed have again demonstrated the
fact that the democratic party is the only
party from which the workingman can ex-
pect legislation that will benefit him In
any material way. The republican party
has always been loud in its professions of
friendship and strong in its promises of
aid and justice. but the deeds that carry
out such protestations have been general
ly lacking.
The work of the general assembly OF
1889 in this line, including the eight-hour
law, the law to prevent "black-listing,
the law to prohibit ''pluck-me" stores, the
laws for the protection of coal miners, the
law preventing the importation of Pinker-
ton detectives and the repeal of the re-
publican intimidation law of 1881, was
strongly Endorsed by the democratic state
platform, and it has been well supple
mented and extended at the session just
ended.
The bill passed in 1889, providing for
the protection of the rights and life of
