HERBERT BISMARCK is evidently a
chip off the old block. In the German
reichstag on Saturday ne took a promi-
nent part in the discussions Oh the COM
mercial treaties with foreign powers, and
manifested a vigor of speech and a
breadth of thought that reminded the
hearers of his father in his palmy days.
He was cool and collected. and, being
fully Informed on the subject at issue.
was able to hold his own with debaters
OF far greater experience. Count Her
bert is evidently a man who proposes to
carve his own way to fame. He has a
great future before him if he shall use
MS powers judiciously, and this he
seems abundantly able to do.

SECRETARY SMITH and Pension Com
missioner Lochren were bombarded
with hot shot from Joe Cannon'S mouth
on Saturday. The Illinois representa-
tive took it for granted that these of
fcials are antagoDistlc to the old SOL
diers, Notwithstanding the fact that Mr..
Lochren has a record of which any vet
eran might be proud. But Cannon did
not care for that. He was after the APP
plause of the galleries, and he got it,
but only by shamelessly misrepresent-
ing the pension policy thu far pursued
by the department. Both Secretary
Smith and Commissioner Lochren have
admitted that a wrong was done in sus-
pending the payment of many pensions,
and having seen their error, made haste
to correct it. They are certainly en-
tilted to credit for frankness; it is to be
feared that their assailants cannot be
credited with an equal degree of fair
ness.

Chicago is reliably Democratic under

Hint TO Omce-seekers.

Every man who has the good Of his
country at heart will commend the re-.
cent utterance of President CLEVELAND re-
garding the method to be adopted by
those who want office. 1t is perfectly
right and proper for one to aspire to hold
office under the government. 1t is the
unseemly scramble, the struggle for place,
which has characterized the office-seekers
of recent years that is Objectionable.
There has been little opportunity to attend
TO public affairs, the pressure is so great
a horde has beset the government Off
cials from the president down to the new
est member of congress, horde which has
blocked all progress and prevented the
Transaction Ofimportant business.
The president now requests all seekers
for office to file their papers and GO home,
and assures them that their claims will
receive due attention when the proper
time comes. This request is couched in
the most courteous language and should
appeal to the patriotic impulses of every
man to whom 1t may apply in any degree.
This accumulation of office-seekers is
not new. Even in the dark times of the
war President LINCOLN very often COM
planned of the men who seemed to have
no thought except the securing of as much
of the government spoils as possible.
The same has been true after every cleo
ton since. though it is probable that the
seeking for official preferment has been
characterized by more dignity and less
scandalous proceedings under this admin
istration than for many years previous.
President CLEVELAND make possible the
earlier application OF the civil service law.
That is the ideal. that is the end toward
which all are looking and which every
patriot hopes to see consummated soon.
The earlier the better for the country.
The unseemly scramble must be sbro-
gated. All honor to President CLEVELAND
for his brave words and actions.

form.or perhaps the spirit. of government.
The time is passing when infam atory
cotps will accomplish anything in the
cause of freedom. The reign of reason and
respect fos government as represented by
the will OF the whole people began long
ago, but for some reason the powers of
the old world have failed to notice it.
They realized something OF the spirit of
freedom when the colonies broke away
from the mother country and began bust
ness for themselves; but the object Lesson
was too far away to be very impressive.
the nations of Europe simply thought
that England had lost some valuable ter
ritory, which would. ere long, be annexed
to the possessions of some other great
power. But they didn't know the intlu-
ences and they couldn't appreciate The
great forces which had been working ever
since the mobiles compelled King JoHN 10

onies have grown to commanding emf
nencs, and their growth is only begun.
The bugle note OF progress is still ring
ing, and it will not die away until thrones
are second hand and kings are memories.
The struggle of the human race upward
has been slow. but it has been constant and
sure. Only in the middle ages was there
any cloudinR of the star Of hope, and then
1t was temporary and the glitterlng sym
Dol blazed forth again with even more
than its erstwhile splendor after its tenn
porary obscurity. Since then there has
been nothing to mar the symmetry of the
growth of liberty, and when, as occurred
in Belgium. 100000 votes can be added
to the suffrage under monarchy. with no
more friction than was created in Belgium.
then there is indeed hope for the cause of
humanity.

that he lived in a back town up in New

sand dollars, had recently goI married and
was now on his wedding tour and in

"You must make some arrangements
for paying this bill, q" interjected the clerk,
"before leaving this hotel"
Then the newly made benedict COM
muned with himself for a moment and
replied that there was no way he could
raise the amount except by Dawning his
wedding present to his wife, which was a
small gold watch, and this he finally did
and was allowed to depart.
When the room was examined after the
pair had taken their leave a most anus
ing collection of relics was made. Under
the bed was little gas stove and tin
pan, while near by were half a dozen
eggs, q paper bag half filled with old-fash-
toned doughnuis. while another was about
one-third filled with red apples. 1t was
shown that the couple had been doing
their own cooking during their visit, and,

A Needed Change.

The method of electing senators needs
revision. just how it shall be done has
not yet satisfactorily been settled. but
there is no question that the pres
ent system is susceptible of great i'm
provement The election by the people
is probably the only practical solution Of
the problem. There must be- something
done to prevent the senate, the body
which was formed by the fathers OF the
government to be a bulwarK against the
possibly hasty and ill-consdered action of
the more popularity chosen representa-
tives, from deterioratiag into a mere ag-
gregation of money bags. The PROPOSE
ton which has met with the most pro-
nounced approval on the part OF the peo-
pie il the submission OF the election of
senators to the people-let them be voted
for direct.
The State of Nebraska recognized the
necessity of this when the constitution
was revised in 1870. A provision was in
corporatsd in that instrument which al
lows electors to express their preference
for senators when voting for members of
the legislature. In 1881 joint resol ution
was introduced in congress providing for
the removal of the election of senators
from the legislatures and the selection by
popular vote In 1890 the democrats of
Illinois. at their state conven ton, nomi-
mated john NJ. PALMER az their candidate
for senator and put plank ia their plat
form declaring in favor of the election
of senators by direct vote OF the
people. In November. 1892. the voters of
California were requested 10 give an ex-
preston of their opinion at the polls re-
garding the election OF senators by popu-
lar vote. and they responded by a majority
of twelve to one in favor of il.
These are all recent and notable in
stances that the popular mind is ready for
a change. The present system no longer
conduces to conservative action in legisla-
ton. On the contrary tho morei recent

1t is only a few DAYS ago that the press
told OF a popular uprising in Belgium
which resulted in the addition of nearly
100000 voters 10 those who already en-.
joyed the right of suffrage. That is, the
number allowed by law to vote was raised
from 10000 to 100000 The only OBJ
jectionable feature about it was the part
the mob had in it, and il may be hoped
that the mob influence will be overcome

About the same time the announce
ment was made that the two regents who
have been administering the government
in Servia had been deposed and the
rightful king enthroned in their place.
There is no question but that affairs in
Servia have been manipulated by politi-
clans for their own purposes ever since
the regents were appointed. Though the
king is only nineteen years old, he can't
well govern worse than the regents have
done, and, as he has the support of the
people, it is more than likely that he will
govern better. Really the people have

Saturday one bank shipped 100000. and
has followed it up regularly since with

Bank Failure at indianapolis.

The Capital national bank has sus-
pended. The doors were closed Thurs
day morning about $50 o'clock The an
nouncement came as q surprise to business
men and bankers alike. No aid was asked
from any of the banks. but after brief
consultation with the presidents of the
various banking institutions of the city, II
was decided to suspend operations. This
conference of bankers was not called
until about O'Clock in the morn
ing and it was fully $3.50 o'clock
before all of the gentlemen arrived at the
bank. The time was too short for a thor
ough investigation of the affairs of the i'm
stitutIon, and after hastv review of the
books. and the hearing of a report OF the
condition from Cashier Doherty. the con-
clusion was reached that the bank would
better close its doors. Upon this conclu-
sion tho notice of suspension was hung
upon the outer doors. This was the first
notice of the banks condition that
reached the public. The news spread
rapidly, and it was not ten minutes before
the business men all along S. Meridian-st.
were aware of the financial disaster.
