lighting age, was not in the confederate
army justifies belief that he was not
an original secessionist nor an ardent
State rights man. The Republicans of
tennessee. where he has lived the most
OF his life, think highly of him, and he
owes TO them his election to the United
States Senate in 1881. Nothing in his
Judicial record indicates that he is un-
sound on the State rights question. The
Journal of the 3d inst. printed COM
munication from Republican at Nash
vile. Tenn, calling attention to a de-
cision rendered by Judge jackson two
days before, In which he strongly as
serted the right and power of the United
States government to protectits citizens
at all times and under all circumstances.
No Republican judge could have as
serted this right and power more dis
tinctly than Judge jackson did in this
case. In short, there is no evidence
whatever that Judge jackson is State
rights Democrat.

THE general secretary of the Young
Mems Christian Association, desiring to
ascertain the value of different methods
of announcing meetings, circulated
thousands of little dodgers" and had
notices inserted in the papers. The
house was packed. During the meet
ing he asked those who had been led
to attend by reading the dodgers" to
rise, and fifteen was the number. He
then asked those to rise who had been
influenced to attend by reading the no.
tices in the newspapers, and the audi
ence rose in body. And what is true
of dodgers" is, in a large degree, true
of posters and pictures, and announce
ments in shop windows. Compared
with the newspaper, which is read in
the home, they are comparatively
worthless as advertising mediums.
More and more the public which patron
ICES lectures, theaters and stores is
coming to the conclusion that anything
of merits worth newspaper announce
ment, while those which are presented
through cheaper medium are not.

THE ENCAMPMENT IN TIE LEGISLATURE.

The proper entertainment of the Ma
tiOnal Encampment Of the Grand Army
is matter which involves the reputa-
tiOn of Indiana for patriotism and hos
pitality. During the past six or eight
years the encampment has been held in
no city which has been denied the right
to appropriate money therefor. In
most instances State legislatures, in
addition to authorizing cities to vote
money, have made special appropria-
tiOns. In some of the cities where en-
campments have been held. councils
have the right to appropriate money for
such purposes without special au-
thority from the Legislature. In
no case, however, has an en-
campment been held in recent
years that city or State aid, or both,
have not been granted. AS q matter of
fact, they could not have been SO sue
cessful as they have been without such
assistance. The matter is not one Of
politics. 1t is simply question Of ex-
tending courtesy to q body of men
whose timely service, years ago. all par
ties in Indiana have recognized in their
platforms. If Indianapolis should ask
the Legislature to be authorized to give
a college, an agricultural society or any
association regarded as beneficial to the
city q donation to make it successful,
the Legislature would not hesitate. On
the contrary, it would say that the peo-
pie of Indianapolis are qualified to
judge for themselves, and, therefore,
they shall have that privilege. The
proper entertainment of the National
Encampment will be of as much ad-
vantage in the end to this city as would
any ordinary benefit which could be
secured for q few thousand dollars To
fail to entertain the encampment as
successfully as has Columbus, Milwau-
kee OF Detroit would now inf1ict a
greater injury upon Indianapolis and
even upon Indiana, than could well be
measured by money. Will not the
Legislature display the patriotism of
Ohio and Wisconsin by at least author
izing indianapolis to vote it's own
money to entertain the people whom
the State has invited to the capital cityf

ascertaining If there was anything
wrong. There should be no prosecution
and no defense; nothing but common
desire to elicit the truth and the whole
truth, not only as to specific charges,
but as TO everything else that seemed to
call for investigation. This inquiry has
not been conducted by the majority in
any such spirit. On the contrary, they
have from the beginning assumed the
defensive. thus putting the minority in
the position of prosecutors. The ma
jority have undertaken to establish a
prOtectorate over Warden Patten, thus
compelling the minority to fight for
every inch of ground and every particle
of information.
In spite of the obstructive tactics OF
the warden and the majority of the COM
mittee the minority have brought out
some damaging facts. They have
proven by the testimony of several wit
nesses that the warden is a man of vio-
lent temper and methods, arbitrary, un-
just and cruel. They have shown that
he draws interest on public money, and
carries a deposit in his own bank.
They have shown favoritism, if not job
berry, in the awarding of contracts. AS
the case stands, they have shown that
the warden has been in the habit of
charging the State with railroad fare
to and from this city when he travelled
on free passes. They have offered to
prove more, and would have done so
by the majority. restricted as to time,
hampered as to methods, and repeatedly
shut off when they seemed to be on the
point of bringing out important facts.

THE SOUTHERN PRISON INVESTIGATION,

The pending investigation of the south
ern prison has progressed far enough to
show that it is destined to take it's place
among Investigations that do not in
vestigate. From the beginning of the
proceeding to the present time the ma
jority have pursued an obstructive pol
icy. Appointed to investigate, they
have devoted themselves most earnestly
to shutting off investigation. Charged
with the duty of getting information,
they have labored most assiduously to
keep it from coming out. When the
charges were first filed Warden Patten
welcomed an investigation with every
appearance of really desiring it. He
wanted it to be searching and thorough,
and to that end he wanted some of his
political opponents on the committee.
If this was not done for effect it GER
tainly was wholly inconsistent with his
later conduct. From the day the COM
mittee reached Jeffersonville he has led
in the obstructive tactics Of the majority,
using all the weight of his authority
and his knowledge of prison affairs to
prevent the minority from getting at
bottom facts. A real investigation
should be inspired by the single motive
of bringing out facts. 1t should aim at
turning the light on every doubtful
or suspicious transaction with view of
