SIM COY has been nominated for city
councilman at Indianapolis almost unan-
imously by the Democrats of his ward.
and being largely in the majority they Will
elect him. when the wicked rule the
people mourn."-New Albany Tribune.
WHY the Indianapolis News and the
Indianapolis Sentinel should kick on the
nomination of Sim Coy as candidate for
councilman from Indian poiis ward
cannot be reasonably explained. Coy IS D
representative Democrat and it ls altogether
proper that the law of natural selection
should be faithfully observed.-Crsw-
fordsvllle Journal
BY some of the apologists for the Demo-
cratic municipal administration of Indian
apolis it is said the nomination of Sim Coy
for councilman vas secured by the worst
elements of the party. That may be true.
but the significant fact remains. neverthe-
less. that Coy received five votes to one
cast tor his opponent, q fairly reputable
citizen. and il Is rs plain as can be that
the same influence that fOisted Coy on the
ticket is responsible for the name of Sulii-
van at the head of it-Lafayette Courier.
SIM CoY'S method of mana the DEM
ocratic party is peculiar. During the CAM
paign he has the leading Democratic papers
repudiato him as Unworthy of recognition,
but when the election is over he steps to
the front again as party leader. lhIs Is

LAST nights primaries offered con-
vincine proof that the Repu blicans of
Indianapolis are in the fight to win.
The attendance was uDprecedentedly
large, and the fact that ali but twelve
precincts forwarded reports to the head
quarters of the city central committee
demonstrates that the party orRaniza-
tion is i'm excellent working condition:
While the meetings were, in some pre-
cincts. quite spirited. the general party
harmony is shown in the fact that in ali
the 158 precincts there is but one
contest for seats in the convention.
The primaries have done well. and it
remains for the convention to complete
the work so auspiciously begun.

1T seems from the reports of British
papers that silver mining companies
controlled in England find the business
very profitable. The Broken Hill stock
holders are assured that if the price of
silver should go TO 3S cents an ounce
they will receive fair dividends. The
Elkhorn stock holders were told at the
annual meeting that silver could be pro-
duced without loss at 3S cents an ounce.
The same report came from other mines.
And yet owners of mines in the same
county as the English mines insist that
every ounce costs them S1.29. There
must be some mistake somewhere.

ability for manual labor and il strikes at
all pensions heretofore granted where
"a a month is allowed for rheumatism
and equal amounts for one or two other
causes of disability. And yet Commits
sioner Lochren either is ignorant of this
fact or ignores it. He intimates that
the suspensions are chiefly cases where
deafness is attributed under the act of
1890. whereas, inquiry brings to light
the fact that large per cent. of the pen
sions suspended were granted under the
old law. Hoke Smith goes about the
country declaring that over 100, 900 PEN

the eve of presidential election. The
Democratic party had made it's cam
paign on a platform which demanded
the abolition of protection and the sub
sti.ution of free trade. 1t had promised
the farmers an increase in the price of
their products, workingmen an increase
in wages. and every body an improve

these promises Cleveland was elected.

AN Eastern paper which was distressed
by the rumor that Mr.. Cleveland's recent
rheumatic attack was not rheumatism. but
something else. devotes three columns of
space to proving that 1t was not something
else. According to this veracious account
Mr.. Cleveland, SO far from dlsregarding
his strict anti-fat diet rules. went imme-
diately to his berth on boarding Mr. Bene-
diets yacht and slept eighteen hours.
When he woke he had but little appetite
for breakfast and returned to his couch in
half an hour and slept twelve hours more.
In fact he spent pretty nearly all the two
days and a half consumed in the trip to
Buzzard's Bay in sleep. Then. after he got
wide awake. the rheumatism and the tooth
ache caught him. Ii may OCCUR to some
overly suspicious persons that this story
proves "a trifle too much. but they ought to be
ashamed of themselves. He slept because
be was tired. and being big man. it took
him q long time to get rested. Why. OF
course: the OK plan nation is perfectly simple.
Perhaps in that long nap he dreamed out q
way of getting the country out of the hole
that his party has got il into. If So he can
not spring the scheme too soon.

Now that Secretary Carlisle's free
trade subOrdinates are making deci-
sions. the duties on important grades OF
wool fixed by the Mckinley law have
been reduced 90 per cent. If these Off

why can they not change the protective
tariff act to a strictly revenue basis?
Something of that sort would tend to
keep the temporarily closed factories
shut for year or more.

advantage of the day and the occasion

What angered Mr.. Blount was passage
in which, after detailing the successive
extensions of American territory, the
speaker said:

THE WOMAN MISTAKES.

Clara Foltz has fallen foul of Rev.
Father Montgomery on the woman ques-
ton. The trouble with Mrs. Foltz is that
she and all the other woman's rights
people mistake Father Montgomery, and
all others who debate the woman ques-
ton adversely to the policy of encourage
ing the drift of women into business.
Neither Father Montgomery nor any one
else on that side of the question has for
an instant disputed the right of women
TO engage in business pursuits; whereas,
Mrs. Foltz assumes that the right is
denied by those who hold with Father
Montgomery and the RECORD UNION.
No, madam, the right of woman to
make fool of herself is not disputed.
but the wisdom of such action is seriously
assailed. In other words, the claim is
that woman's drift into business seriously
diminishes her capacity for domestieity.
and to that extent the drift is bad for the
human race. So far as we are concerned
in the matter, and we believe we origin
ated the debate some years back, we have
made our contention in the best interests
of women, not adversely 10 them. But
we are painfully aware Of the fact that
volunteer friend is never kindly re-
ceived.
Honestly, all sensible women know
that what Father Montgomery deplores
so eloquently, and what the REcoRD-
UNION assails so persistently and untir-
ingIy, is for their good, and they know
that we are right. But they do not all
care to acknowledge it-womanly pride
is a bit touched. Nevertheless, there are
hundreds of good, high-minded women
who hold with US and come forward and
