franchise illiterate voters, and said: "The
pending bill seems open to the charge of
cumbersomeness and intricacy."
Feb. IL the Journal falsely charged that
the bill made no provision for illiterate
voters and took up half column of edi-
torial in denouncing it for this reason.
In its head lines Feb. 10 announcing
the passage of the bill the Journal gave it
liberal denunciation as follows: TAX
ing Care of the Party-Democrsts Pass
One of Their Pet Measures with Repub-
lcan Help-The Expensive and Cumber-

so-cslled Australian system, with it abund-
ant and complicated machinery. will not
leave wide-open doors for political cor
ruption, or become an engine for the ex-
clusion of legal votes.
But these extracts might be continued
almost indefinitely, all going to prove that
the Journal opposed the Australian law
just as far as it dared in the face of the
then existing popular indignation against
the frauds which had given its candi-

enactment OF the Australian law, and
and they opposed it through fear that it
would prevent them from carrying the
state by bulldozing and bribery, as they
had done in 1880 and 1888.

Two Great Stories.

We have in hand two exceedingly inter
Mting stories, one of which will be COM
nenced in next WEEKLY SENTINEL. This
atier was written by the famous English
man, OSCAR WILDE, which we are permit
ted to publish through the courtesy of the
American publishers, Messrs. Dom, MEAD
& Co, OF New York 1t is entitled "a
Great Ghost Story" and will run through
three or four issues of THE WEEKLY SENTI-
VEL As soon as it is completed it will be
followed by longer serial of the most
fascinating type, entitled ''Old Man Gill
bert" for which we are indebted to the
publishers of Belfords Monthly. This de-
lightful story has been pronounced one
of the most vigorous and intensely enter
tanning romances ever written by an
American. The author is ELIZABETH w.
BELLAMY, who has also written -Four
Oaks" and Little Joanna" under the
nom de plume of ''Kamba Thorpe"

ceedingly discouraging to those having a
penchant for masked night riding, the
whipping of old men and helpless women
and the midnight assassination Of personal
foes.
Every good citizen will glory in this tri-
umph OF justice. For several years the
state has been disgraced and certain Sec
tons terrorized by the lawless acts OF
hooded marauders, who, protesting to seek
public order and claiming to enforce pri-
vate morality, have committed all manner
OF outrages on persons and property.
The SENTINEL has all along maintained
that the communities in which these
outrages have occurred have been,
through their public officials, respon-
sible for the repetition of these
crimes; it has held that il the people had
demanded it and their officials had per-
formed their full duty, whitecapping could
have been suppressed and the white caps
made to pay the penalty of their crimes.
The result of the Dubois county trial
demonstrates the soundness of these po-
sitions beyond all possibility of success
full dispute. The trouble has ever been
that the public servants, whose duty il is
to suppress such outbreaks of lawlessness,
have not done their whole duty. and that
their neglect has only too often been the
result of indifference on the part of their
constituents.
The crime of wbitecappinR itself is 3
peculiar one. 1t is not practiced by indi-
viduals, but by groups or cliques. That
being the case there is much reason to be-
lieve that officials whose position depends
on votes will wink at the violations OF the
law and that private citizens will often re-
press their indignation either from fear of
the vengeance of the malefactors or
through desire to avoid neighborhood
unpleasantness. But such officials on the
one hand are violating their oaths of office,
and such private citizens are neglecing
the requirements of good citizenship.
1t will not do to reply that it is difficult
to detect the perpetrators of these crimes.
1t is not. Wherever and whenever a con-
spiracy is entered into to do lawless act
that moment the purpose OF the consplra-
tors becomes public property. Nothing
that is thus done is longer a secret and not
all the bloodcurdling ostbs ever admins
tered beneath the creaking pines, by the
light OF sputtering pitch knots, can keep
! it so. The doings and thoughts of the
organization are heralded broadcast
throughout the region till every member
of the community is familiar with the de-
tails and the conscientious public official
can have no difficulty in piling evidence
mountain high against tie violators of the
| law.
All these facts the thinking public
knows; it knows that every protestation
of inability to ferret out and punish is a
deliberate falsehood or a confession of
cowardice, and in either event it will hold
responsible not only the official who neg
lects his duty but also the community
which tolerates such officials mslfeasance
and on both it will place the stigma of de-
served disgrace.

Justice Is Done.

The people of Dubois county and, in a
lesser degree. the people of the whole state
of Indiana, are to be congratulated on the
result of the white cap trials. A death
blow has been given to this cowardly
species OF crime in Dubois county. and the
lesson thus administered cannot fail to
have a salutary effect elsewhere in Indiana.
In the conviction of these four white
caps the good people of Dubois have given
a high testimonial TO their own good eiti-
zenship. The crime for which four men
have been sent TO the penitenilary was
not so aggravated in character as many
others which have disgrsced the state. and
was the FIRST Of the kind ever committed
in Dubois county. But il is likely to be
the last, for the people and their courts
met the innovation with q response ex-

A ballot on which the stamp shows
through does not comply with the law,
but Il would not probably be invalid so
far az the result of the election is con-
cerned. The law (sec 26) requires that
ballots shall be "of the same quality and

To THE EDIToR-Sir: You will confer
favor by answering the following:
l. What was our state levy in 1890?
2. What is the present levy?
3. What is the Indebtedness of our
state?
4. What party created this debt; when.
and for what purpose?
RUSSELL WYNE.
Lancaster Ind, April 81
Replying IN the same order:
!. u cents on 500.
. u cents on 800. There is also
special levy of cents on 500 for the
maintenance of the states benevolent in
situations, the annual cost of which has
increased about 100000 since the twelve
cent levy was fcst made in 1877.
g. The total debt reported Oct 81, 1891,
was S. $50, 145l3. OF this amount 1884,
600 is bonds due to the State university
and Purdue university, which does not
represent money expended. That is to
say. the state donated them these bonds
and paws interest on them for the support
of the institutions. The debt created by
expenditures is IS. 342 1913.
4. OF the total debt created by expendi-
lures s., S53, 1872 was made by the re-
publicans. and 50, ass, 1920 by the demo-
Gratis. what the republicans did with
their part no one has ever been able 10
explain, but it was made before the demo
Gratis came into power. They built
no state buildings except a SOL
diers orphans home at knights
town, which afterward burned down
and was rebuilt by the democrats,
and the old state buildings at the corner
of Washington and Tennessee-sts. which
have been sold Their total expenditures
for buildings were less than 100000. The
democrats expended 500, 800 for furnish
ing the new capitol, which was in excess
of the tax levied for building; 81 100000
for the new insane hospitals at Richmond,
Logansport and EVANSVILLE 100000 for
the soldiers and sailors monument. and
| the remainder for other buildings needed
| for the state, among which the more i'm
portant are the institution for the feeble
minded at Fort Wavne, new soldiers

NAL school at Terre Haute, new build
| Ing at tn6 lublluIo lOI luo Dlluu,
new school building at the insti-
| tute for the deaf and dumb new library
! building at the State university, and
smaller Improvements at other state insti-
tutions. The democratic party can ac-
count for every cent of debt it has created.
and has no apologies to make for it. 1t has
erected the buildings necessary for caring
| for the insane, for educating those afflicted
by the loss of sight, speech and hearing and
for rearing and educating the orphans Of
soldiers and sailors. It proposes to main
tain these institutions. 1t provided for
meeting the expenses by tax law that
! placed the burden on corporate property,
but republican local officials, wherever
they have had power. have unnecessarily
increased local taxes in order to cast
odium on that law. We think the people
of Indiana are intelligent enough to see
through this bit of trickery, and honest
enough TO punish the guilty tricksters at
the polls.

seriousness that is highly pleasing
to its partakers no doubt but not at all
encouraging to the absorption or dissent
nation of information.
In this somnolent atmosphere the con-
gresham soon forgets almost that he has
a constituency. He falls behind the
times; he becomes negligent of his duties
and sleeps through the sessions or re-
mains away from them altogether
and devotes his attention solely to enjoy
ing himself and drawing mis- salary, the
latter being the only thing he does with
anything like regularity.
1t thus happens that the work OF con-
gress is done by comparatively few men,
while the majority are devoting their
time to personal matters. 1t is these lat
ter that Representative BAILEY is after and
it is to be hoped be will get them. If he
doesn't the people will rise up and get
them some day and then there will be a
lot of genteel losfers out of job.

Is a common exclamation at this season.
There is a certain bracing effect in cold

the impure condition of the blood. and its
failure to supply healthy tissue to the va

how susceptible the system is to the help

Congressional Ahsenteeism.

Representative BAILEY OF Texas is on
the right track with his resolution to
dock" congressman for absence from
their posts of duty, bat it is very doubtful
if he can secure its adoption.
There is no other class of public officials
in America whose members are so in.
clined to look upon public Office as pri-
vate enap as congressman. They talk
about obeying the wishes of their con-
stituents, but the fac: of the matter is that
mighty few of them know anything about
the wishes of their constituents after their
first session, and almost none Of
them obey any wishes except their
own. There are many reasons for
this condition OF affairs. In the
first place the newly elected congressman
usually celebrates his election by journey
to Washington, and there he remains con-
tinuously until his constituents retire him,
only excepting his few brief visits to his
old home for consultation with the local
managers of his party relative to his re-
nomination and reelection. While he is
idlng away his time at the capital, his
district is growing. its sentiments are
changing, new conditions are arising and
he alone remains stationary. Again.
Washington is the narrowest, and in re-
gard to current topics, the most unenlight-
ened city on earth. Everybody-states-
men, newspaper men and department
officials-goes to sleep on his arrival and
never after fully awakens. The town has
no trade to give it knowledge of com
mercial affairs, its newspapers devote all
their space to the d0ings of the
government and the whole people
drop into satisfied self-con-
