PACIFIC PROPOSITION.

The proposition which the committee
ofthe Indiana Department of the Grand
Army submitted to the monument COM
~missioners, yesterday, is one which all
fair minded people will regard as a rea-
sonable basis for the adjustment of the
controversy that has arisen in regard to
he soldiers monument. 1t is that all
the dates in the upper astragal be re-
moved, and that no opposition shall be
made to the tablets on the north base of
the monument, which, as the commits
sioners have voted, shall contain data
regarding other wars in which Indiana
has been engaged, as we'll as statistics
regarding the States participation in
the war for tho Union. The figures in
the astragal make the Mexican war
an event in the history of In
diana equal to its participation
in the war for the Union. On the other
hand, the data on the tablets proposed
will show the comparative Importance
of each war or campaign in the history
of Indiana. Such tablets will tell the
truth, while the astTagal dates convey
the impression hat the people of In
diana who have erected the monument
beloved hat the participation of the
State in the two wars called for an equal
display of p%atriotism. valor and sacri-
flee. If the commission will but accept
this proposition all the unhappy differ
ences and contentious will end and all
the very serious consequences which
will come from further controversy BE-
averted. 1t is not worth while here to
mention these consequences, but there
is reason to fear that they involve q
contention before the Legislature which
may prevent the completion of the mon
ument and mar the success of the Ma
tional Encampment. There is reason to
hope. indeed. it may be said. that there
IS reason to expect that the commission
ers are prepared to receive the PROPOSE
tiOn of the department committee as a
solution of the present contention and
Of oil difficulties relative to the monu-
ment.

The reason the electric railway company
suspended traffic over its line from last night
until this evening was to give it time TO make
an important change at its power house at
Rappahannock. The 2jO-horse power
dynamo that was received some time ago has
now been added to the plant and will be run
in conjunction with the two sO-horse power
dynamos that have been in use. The addi-

Yesterday several people complained to
Chief Burgess Smith that woman was
walking about the streets with a sick baby in
her arms and the appearance of the child
indicated that it had scarlet fever. Smith
found out that the woman was the wife Of
Hungarian saloon keeper on South Main
street. He notified the man and woman TO
keep the child in the house and was told that
could not be done. The Burgess told them
that if they did not do so he would prosecute
them for maintaining a public nuisance.
The order has been obeyed.

The sports who went to Ashland Monday
night to see the Gibson-McHale scrap"
were few in numbers and the home atten-
dance was equally as poor. In short, the
scrap" was a failure When it was origi-
nally thrown upon the world the announce
ment was made that the fight would be be-
tween Gibson and Gallagher and that it
would take place at Allentown. Then q
change of programme was made. Jimmy
McHale, Of Philadelphia, was announced as
Gibson's opponent and the Ashland skating
rink was selected as the battle ground. To
add interest to the matter it was also an
nounced that the athletic Club of Ashland
had hung up purse for the winner. AS 1
am informed, Gibson did not like to meet
McHale Any one who is at all posted on
Pennsylvania sporting matters could
hardly blame him. McHale is professional
pugilist of considerable fame and many scalps
OF defeated "scrappers dangle at his belt.
But Gibsons preiudices were eventually
overcome by quiet (?) undertaking that he
would be allowed to win on foul. When
they gathered at the rink the attendance was
very small. Gibson felt discouraged because
there were not more people present. He did
not care about "going on and McHale
wanted to see the color of the purse. Finally
the men were induced to spar six rounds for
$50 raised in the rink and-MeHale finished
the work in less than three rounds 1t was
lucky the Gibson admirers kept their money
in their pockets this time-that is lucky for
themselves. ORE.
