perpetual hot-box could be advertised as
lightning express. But there was
nothing to investigate, and Mr.. Fountain
admits. by not accepting the Journals
offer, nothing to explain.
Again. Mr.. Fountain read circular
dated Jan. Is. and said it is one which
the press don't care to publish leaving
the committee to. infer that the press
had refused to publish it. So far as the
Journal is concerned. it has never been
asked to publish such circular. If one
Of the officers had sent it to the Journal
it would have been published as part
of the news. If Mr.. Fountain were not
in SO bad temper that he is scarcely re-
spCnsible for what he says, the Journal
might accuse him of bearing false wit
ness-a thing which the prudent edi-
tor should not do.
Now that Mr.. Fountain has rendered
the Journal advice, it may even dare to
make suggestion to Mr.. Fountain him
self. He is clerk Of the courts of st.
Joseph county. He complains that he
has not so much salary as he deserves:
and yet he has been absent from his
Office month. If he continues to re-
main here the fee and salary committee
may come to the conclusion that there
are no duties connected with the office
he holds for which salary should be
paid, and reduce it still further. This
would be a logical conclusion, unless the
policy is to be adopted in Indiana that
county officers like Mr.. Fountain are to
constitute leisure class, like the Brit
ish aristocracy, and draw revenues from
the people for their support.
In conclusion. the Journal will add
that, from every source of information,
it is led to believe that the taxpayers of
Indiana are opposed to such fees and
salaries as Mr.. Fountain and his asso-
ciates are laboring to impose. Twice
within few years the conventions of
both parties have denounced the old fee
and salary law. The best local papers
of both parties now denounce it, and
hundreds of letters are written to mem
bers of the Legislature and others de-
handing that salaries be fixed and be
reasonable. From a sense of duty and
from choice the Journal takes sides with
the people. Even though it calls forth
the censure and the misrepresentation
of President Fountain, and makes few
former friends temporary enemies. the
path of duty is plain, and the Journal
will walk therein

Judge Taft,s Order.

CINCINNATI, o., Jan. 31.-Judge Taft
of the United States Circuit Court OF APP
peals, handed down to-day supplementary
decree defining the powers OF the local re-
ceivers of the Distilling and Cattle Feed
ing Company. The decree commands the
receiver to pay all claims for goods and
supplies furnished and for wages and sal
aries during the month n January. This
decree includes also rebates. checks and
vouchers issued by the company 70 dis
tributing agencies in the amount of cents
on the gallon, when the bills due to the
company by these distributing agencies are
paid up. The decree gives the receiver
power to pay all such claims in this judicial
district contracted before Feb. l. 1895. In
the rebate claims the decree recognizes the
liability of the company only 10 the dis
tributing companies and to the extent of
only cents on the gallon The distributing
company must therefore settle the cents
per gallon with the retailer in case Ii is
under obligation to do so. The decree does
not, so far, hold the company liable for the
cents additional to the retailer.

There is no more reason for the in

Figures published in the Journal a
few days ago showed that the average
cost of caring for the insane in this
State was $227.5S per capita, against
$f5829 in Ohio, and that the establish
ment of the Ohio standard in this State
would result in a saving of nearly S175.-
600 a year. Such reform as that would
be something the people could under
stand and appreciate. They do not care
a fig whether the ward keepers and
hired girls in our insane hospitals are
Republicans or Democrats. If they are
efficient and humane and do their duty,
but they do want TO see the hospitals
and all the State institutions run on
business principles and they would be
especially glad to see a large reduction
in expenses. BY all means, let us have
the Ohio plan in Indiana.

done, the total compensation would be ST.

salary of $3.50 in ST. Joseph. II the other
work of the two offices were compared the
salary Of the clerk in Marion would be still
greater than the figure above named. The
Journal is not urging the increase of the
clerk of Marion but is simply pointing out
that on the basis of office work he re-
ceives less than is paid Mr.. Fountain.

1t grieves the Journal to remark that
one OF the County Officers Association
committee told a Marion county official
yesterday that the committee had rooms
on Tennessee street, and were perfecting
fee and salary bill which would be
passed by the Legislature. And yet one
of this committee told the House fee and
salary committee that it would present
no bill. Alas. this is a wicked world.

ARIZONA.

Arizona stands at the threshold of an era of wonderful social and industrial de- velopment. There can't be doubt about the fact. The dawn for which she has waited so long is breaking at last. There is every promise of day of great pros- perity and permanent upbuilding just be- fore her. The impulse of a new and ener- gizing hope is visible everywhere among her people, while the cumulative effect of many things, which made but small inn pression as they transpired singly, is now commanding for her full share of atten- tion and interest abroad among home seekers and capitalists.
 4 lively competition has sprung up for the possession of things which have hereto fore gone a-begging for ownership. There is a scramble for franchises. Nothing more surely indicates great industrial awaken ing than this. The rates of interest are falling to moderate figures. Nothing more surely indicates confidence and competition among the money lenders than this.
 Arizona has reached that climacticer period which every western state has ex. perienced sometime in its history when, after long aud weary struggle and doubt, with each side of the balance first up and then down, the clouds of despondency have suddenly rolled away, and a sunhurst of energizing hope has thrilled the droop ing spirits of the people to greater and braver endeavor than before.
 For the last twelve years the subsistence of the great Tombstone boom and the com pletion of two transcontinental lines o railroad across her territory-Arizona has rather dropped out of public attention but in that time she has been quietly ac cumulating fund of substantial wealth and a force of moral character which qualify her now to rise up and take hel destiny in her own hands.
 The population of Arizona is Mexican This is mistake of great importance from the moral point of view. There is but one considerable center of Mexican population in the territory, the city of Tucson, anc even there it is not by any means at pres ent the predominating element. It think it is certain that Arizona has not to-day nearly so large a Mexican population al Colorado and not above ono-tenth as mucl as New Mexico. o.-"Fitz- Mac," in Denver Newe.
