A DISPATCH from Chicago says That
the Illinois fair board is making ar
rangements for a series of free railroad
excursions for the foreign commission
ers throughout the State. If they want
to make these excursions really inter-
esting to the foreign commissioners
they should take in the Indiana natu.

Chicago Illinois cannot show anything
as interesting as natural-gas we'll in

CONTROLLER ECKELs deprecates runs
on banks that have proved their right
to popular confidence, and says they are
entitled to considerable treatment. That
is true. but it is equally true that the
banks should reciprocate this feeling of
confidence. If banks set the example of
boarding and refusing accommodations
10 their former patrons, thus setting an
example of want OF confidence. they
cannot complain if heir depositors catch
the contagion. There are two sides to
this question.

POLITICAL CRIME AND ITS PBNALTY.

= A gerryman6ered legislative appOr-
tionment brings an irresponsible and
vicious Legislature controlled by its
worst element. Such Legislature en-
acts outrageous laws in the interest of
lawbreakers, who, under their cover.
defy the sovereignty of the State. Such.
step by step, has been the descent from
popular and intelligent government to
condition when the authority of the
State is defied. The fall began in an
unconstitutional apportionment of the
Legislature; it has ended in the open de-
fiance of the sovereignty of Indiana,
under cover of one of the acts of that
Legislature, by gang of gamblers and
toughs at Roby, who are not citizens of
the State. Rarely has wrong doing
brought to people so speedy and so Sc
we're punishment-for punishment it lie
to all right.minded citizens of Indiana
when the sovereignty of the State is
insulted.
And now, following the defiance of
the Governor by the Chicago gamblers
nouncement that the ''spOrts" who
have congreRated in Indianapolis
as n wide-open city propose tn
set up permanent prize ring
in its suburbs under the cover of the
McHugh law. Driven from most of the
cities of the country, the gambling and
prize lighting fraternity seem to have
discovered an asylum In Indiana, and
even propose to establish a headquarters
under the shadow of the State Capitol.
There is no other Northern State that
tolcrates such an infamy as that which
at Roby defies the sovereignty of In
diana.
1t is very natural that the blackleg
fraternity of every description, from
the gambler to the fOotpad, should turn
their faces toward Indianapolis. where
they receive immunity because of lib
eral contributions to- the Mayors cleo
ton, and where the municipal judge is
their proclaimed champion. The Nc
Hugh law has already given the State
notoriety, and if there is not a radical
change it will fasten upon the larger
towns of the State the disgrace and
the decay which the leprosy of or
ganized blacklegism fastens upon q
city. To those to whom the presence of
such an element is not a moral offspse
the fact that the organized gambler and
blackleg il a blight upon the business of
a city should lead them to make war
upon its existence and development in
Indiana. Since New Orleans became
the rendezvous of the organized black
leg it has been summed by a large part
of the pleasure travel and a blight has
fallen upon its prosperity.
The first duty of Indiana people to
their State is to labor to undo the evils
of the McHugh law and to restore TO the
State popular government by consti-
tutionally apportioned Legislature.
Here in Indianapolis the work can be
begun by wipipg out the weakness of
Sullivanism and the r'iciousness of BUS
kirkism. This can b done only through
Republican success, and Republican sue
cess will follow if Republicans will
attend the primaries tonight in full
mum bers, and thus secure ticket which
will stand for all that Sullivan, Buskirk
and Gov do not.

ALTHOUGH the English press says lit
that Admiral Tryon was not in proper
condition to conduct naval maneuvers
at the time the disaster to the Victoria
occurred, he having but just returned
from convivial banquet on shore. AS
he acknowledged before the sinking of
the ship that he alone was to blame and
then paid for his error with his life. it
is not likely that the charge will be
formally entered of record against him;
but the case is one to impress on the
minds of all naval officers the necessity
of keeping their heads clear at all times.

Yesterday Was . Day of Lively Work Among
Their Friends.
These be livelier times in the Republican
camp than have been seen for many years
in municipal politics. Realizing that the
convention was but two days of the
friends of the various candidates put in .
busy day Yesterday and o heap of ground
was covered by each working force. 1t Is
probable that tO-night's PRIMARIES will see
q remarkably large turnout of Republicans
interested in the nomination of ticket
that will assure victory to the party and
good government to the city.
While d. p. Erwin Is not candidate for
the nomin alton. and Is out of the city. his
name has developed much strength among
the people Who believe that a representa-
tive business man should be nominated.
Those in position to know say that while
he will make no effort to get the nOminA-
tion. and could only accept it at o sacrifice.
he will not refuse it If rendered him by the
convention.
DIR. Theodore w agner's friends have taken
hold IN dead earnest, and are making just
about the hottest canvass ever seen before
a.ReDubiican convention. One found them
every where yesterday at work and full of
enthusiasm for their man. They point with
pride to the fact that ne has run from 1000
to 800 ahead of his ticket in two pre-
vlous campaigns, and the fact that Coy is
again at the head of the Democratic ma
chine recalls the history of the tally-sheer
trial in which Dr.. Wagner played such a
prominent part He 1t was w no discovered
the conspiracy while the sheets were being
forged. collected evidence on the spot. and
made il possible TO convict the criminals.
He will 60 into the convention with q
strong following.
There was an enthusiastic meeting of the
friends of Mr.. A. b. Gates at the Grand
Hotel last night. and a number of promi-
nent Repu bllcans, we'll divided as to W ards,
were there. The work of assigning the
canvassing for the prim aries TO might took
up most OF the time OF the meeting. Many
OF MIR. Gstes's supporters for the IN ay orally
were out in the precincts last night, and
feel confident of their candidates success
in the convention.
EX-Mayor Denny will 90 into the conven-
ton with q big and enthusia stic following.
Even two years ago, when he was not q
candidate and when he was the leader of
those opposed to his nomination. the con-
vention came near forcing it upon him. and
this year his supporters are confident of
making o stronger showing.
While 1t Is probable that number of
pledges will be secured for various candi-
dates at to-night's primaries. it Ia likely
into the convention unpledRed. IL is still
any body's fight.
For Police Judge.
There are plenty of good men in the field
for the police judgeshiD. and the conven-
ton will be able to select an excellens
man. George w. Stubbs will have plenty
of friends there. as will also Frank Nc
Cray, Fremont Afford and X. M. Smock.
