help her? He would. He gave her q

The Indianapolis Sentinel, which
for years has maligned the republican
party, and for the last three years has
denounced the Mckinley bill with all
the vehemence of it's vile nature, has
taken tumble, and last week itedi-
torially said: 'The glass interests OF
Indiana are sacrificed to the cheap Ia
Dor of Belgium by reducing, as Mr..
Wilson says, the duties one-half,
which, when ad valorem, means a
great deal more than one-half. The
rapidly developed building-stone in
dustry of Indiana which has pros
pered by the growth of Chicago and
like cities, is sacrificed to Canada. So
with brick, tile and other interests.
The Wilson committee betrayed all
these industries. And what is the
reason of this sacrificed ITO insure
wider markets for the United States"
says Chairman Wilson. "Wider
markets." where are they7 Where

kets of the world, but they are al

The ADVANCE has received, with a
request to publish, long article
from State Auditor Bierman, stating
his side of the pine land case. 1t is
quite generally conceded that Mr..
Bierman attempted to take advantage
of his position to help some friends,
and incidently to help himself. 1t is
reasonable to suppose that his article
is testimony in his own behalf. The
document is too long and would weary
our readers.

in Which There Are No Sus-
pensions.

On the Mexican Pensions roll there
are the names of 5,2l5 survivors and
1882 widows, and something over
5000 cases were pending at latest re-
ports. This makes a total of rs, 497,
or several thousand more men than
the United States had in Mexico at
any one time during the war.
These all receive either SO or SIP a
month.
Among the names are those of the
widow of.Gen. Samuel "copper" New
Yorker by birth, who was Adjutant
General of the United States Army at
the outbreak of the war, and used
his position:.to aid the rebels in pre-
pairing for. the struggle. He resigned
his position to become Adjutant-
General of.,the Southern confederacy
and oficiated as such until the re-
bellion collapsed. Mrs. Cooper has
been drawing a pension since June 6,
1880.
The widow OF Thomas j. C''Stone-
