HOME FOR CONSERVATIVES.
Senator eailinger Endeavorlns to Ia,

Senator GaIlinger Endeavoring to Have
the Governments Establish One.
WASHINGTON, March Speaking of
his bill to establish home for consump-
tives, Senator Gallinger, a physician,
said: 81 have given some attention to
mortality statistics of late and this bill
Is the result of a little study. Twenty
five per cent of the total mortality in
New England is due to pulmonary dis
eases. In this region the rate is about
20 per cent. In New Mexico consump-
ton is responsible for but per cent.
What want is to have the government
cede certain lands upon which private
enterprise may erect sanitarium.
This institution should be located in
one of the territories may
be the more healthful and the commits
sion Is to decide the matter. The ces-
sion for this purpose could not be re-
garded as extraordinary. If the govern
ment can set apart such a reservation as
the Yellowstone park, for public pleas
ure, then it can cede reservation which
would have most beneficent effect ON
the public health. We generally recog-
nize consumption as hereditary, but it
is really a question as to whether it is
not also contagious. 1 hope to advocate
the proposition in the senate and think
i shall be able to show how reasonable
and necessary is my proposition"

Important Conferences.

WASHINGTON, March 2S.-The news of
the receipt of Lord Salisburys reply to
President Harrison's note of the 22d
inst, brought Hon. John w. Foster and
Senator Sherman to the White House
Monday morning at an unusually early
hour. They remained in conference
with the president for half an hour,
When they left their faces expressed in
ward satisfaction with the condition of
things which occupied their minds.
The reply of Lord Salisbury is said in
high official circles, while not conceding
IN express terms what the United States
has contended for in the recent CORE
spondence, is so conciliatory in tone and
manner as to open the way for an ami
cable settlement of the present con-
troversy.
In previous correspondence, Lord
Salisbury declined to admit the subject
of damages to the terms of the treaty at
all; now he proposes to refer the cues
ton of damages to the arbitrators.
Upon this point, his lordship's sugges-
ton contains an impracticable feature
that of attempting to measure damages
vented by the United States from en-
gaging in their occupation. This is
what the late Charles Summer described
as consequential damages
1t would be impossible, in the opinion
of the officials interested, to make any
estimate of damages for what ssmight
have been;" actual damages are all that
can be assessed. But, as stated, the
tone of the reply encourages the officials
to believe a satisfactory arrangement
can be made with England for the pro.
lection of the seals pending the decision
of the points in dispute by arbitration.
Besides General Foster and Senator
Sherman, Secretary Blaine, Senator
Frye, member of the senate COMMITTEES
on foreign relations, and Representative
Blount Were in conference with the
president. They had under considera.
ton the terms of the reply to the propo.
sition of Lord Salisbury respecting the
question of damages before the arbi,
traitors as affecting the renewal of the
modus viyendi.

The Democrats may be organic
ing, but if they are they have not
commenced any too soon. The
enemy is actively at work, and this
must be met by close organization
on the part of the Democracy. The
claim that this State is doubtful
may have some foundation, and it
should inspire the party leaders to
see that it is not lost, if indeed there
is any chance of such calamity,
by lack of proper effort on the part
of the Democracy. The people
should see who are legal voters
The only hope the Republicans
have of success is the importation
of voters. This they claim they
have done. A man must reside in
this State year before he becomes
a voter, and the antecedents ofeacb
voter should be looked into. If he
has been in the State long enough,
MS vote should not be questioned,
but care should be taken that no
interloper is permitted to cast his
ballot. This kind of work should
be commepced now, and it can only
be done by a careful examination
in each school district. The new
law requiring the assessors to list
each voter is a good one, and will
largely prevent illegal voting, but
these reporters have little respect
for law or the sanctity of an oath,
and must be watched and prevented
from voting if there; they are not
entitled to cast a ballot. Let the
eyes of the people be open and
watchful of the party's Interest,"
Inder.

mt Washington. Ind.
WASHINGTON, Ind, March %. - A
necktie party would, perhaps, have
brought disgrace on this city Saturday
night had not the true range of a pistol
ball sent wife murderer's soul into
eternity. Adam Neidig shot his wife to
death and soon afterward fired SINH
lar ball into his brain. The first part of
the tragedy took place in the miserable
little home of the Neidig family in
"Cabel Row" about 4 o'clock, the only
witness being the fourteen-year-old
daughter.
Neidlg was German miner and for
some time had been drinking heavily.
Shortly before the murder he visited his
home and accused his wife Barbara of
infidelity. The man, crazed by the
liquor, rushed to his wife, who was a
frail woman, and seizing her by the
neck with one arm he placed revolver
at her head and fired a ball directly into
her right temple.
With a single groan the woman fell to
the. floor, where. in. her blood and
brains, she was witnessed by hundreds
OF the excited citizens soon after. When
Neidig saw his wife fall to the floor he
watched her for few seconds, and then
took to his heels. He ran to a
barn that stood two blocks away. and
climbed into the hay NOW. After half
covering his body with hay he placed
the weapon at his forehead and emptied
another chamber of his weapon. Per
sons attract, to the scene of the tragedy
had given pursuit. They found him in
the hay NOW struggling in death. He
was removed to an undertaking house,
where hunS eds stood by and saw him
die in agony two hours after his crime.
The tragedy has shocked this city as
never before. Neidig tried to murder
his wife ON other occasions, but failed in
his attempts through the interference
of his children. For some time his pres
ence at home has been one of constant
dread, and a few weeks ago his boys
made mp 800 and gave their father the
money on his promise to leave home and
remain away. The hard-earned money
he spent at saloons, however, and only
served to poison his brain and nerve him
for the shocking tragedy of Saturday.
Seven children, most of whom are
young, are now orphans.

Mr.. McKinley's proudest boast is
that in ten years the Republican
party drove out of the Uuited States
81, 900, 600, 900 of its taxable wealth
and compelled it to find foreign in
vestment. But that boast is made
to the 14,5OO protected mill-owners,
for whose benefit it was done. 1t
was not made to the farmers, whose
exported wealth was refused recent
ly, except at loss.

Russia Can BE Depended upon.

NEW York, March ga dispatch
from Washington to The Times says
that it was reported ON good authority
Thursday night that the president had
been given by the Russian minister as
surances that the Russian government
will cooperate with this government in
the matter of protecting seal life in the
Behring sea. The Russian minister is
credited with the assertion that his gov
eminent would add four men-of-war 10
the fleet of six ironclads now at Vladivo-
stock.
Those senators who favor the position
the president has assumed in the CORE
spondence with Lord Salisbury found
much to stiffen their backbone when
they learned that there was a strong
probability that Russia would be found
on the side of the United States in the
event of hostilities growing out of TIE
question of protecting the few seals re-
naming in Behring sea.
