People Disgusted with Lecisisture-Caucus
Could Do N Wolf as Matthews.
Hon. A. G.. Lindemuth, of Richmond, vas
in the city yesterday in connection with
his duties as city attorney of that place.
He was the member from Wayne and
Fayette. and distinguished himself az q
clear headed and courageous leaderof the
minority. and is one of the strongest of the
young Republican leaders Of the State.
There Is q widespread disgust. not to say
disappointment" said he. talking yes

among the people Of Indiana over
the acts of the late Legislature. The
States business was made second TO the
private ends of the majority. and while
money could not be found for the benevO-
lent institutions, at whose doors the
Insane and the feeble-minded are knock
ing piteously for admission, there was
money for higher salaries and for twice
as many doorkeepers as the law allows. 1t

are glad there were SO few of us In the Leg
~islature that we can be held In no wise to
blame. We Republican members all
helped Governor Matthews to regain his
proper prerogotive Of appointments. but we
have yet TO learn of any improvements In
quality over what the Democratic caucus
could do. Hennessy's appointment as a
trustee of the Institute for the Blind is q
point in instance"

ployed at the Sherman House. was seeking

Mr. English Explains IL.

Hon. William H. English. when asked
yesterday what he thought Of Burke's ap-
pointment. said:
II was disappointed. of course. having
signed Mr.. Kern's application. His failure
to be appointed l believe was due
to one reason that we hear
very little of out here. Mr..
Cleveland has an aversion to Office seekers,
and he puts all who. having one office, ap.
ply for another, under this head. lie is un.
dertaking. as all observe, to run
the administration under certain fixed
rules. For instance. he believes that
when q man is appointed for a term. he
should be allowed. If honest and compe-
tent. to serve it out. You see how easy
it is to apply the rule the other
way, and to insist upon a man
who has been elected TO q term, serving
it out. Mr.. Kern was elected Senator and
has two years yet to serve. 1t would have
gone better with him if he had not been
elected to the Senate"
Mr.. Bailey. Senator Kern's law partner,
says the failure to be appointed is q bless.
ing in disguise to him.
