We thought, when we were too small
to think carefully, that we knew how to
define democrat; but in these latter
days we are compelled to give il up. He
was once supposed to be free trader,
an anti-protectionist, an honest money
advocate, man of Jacksonian simplic-
ity in governmental and personal affairs,
great fnancier, shrewd diplomat, a
wise statesman. But since he has been
examined by the solar spectroscope of
public discussion he appears a little of
all and great deal of none of these i'm
aginary beings. We talk with sheep
man, who pretends to be a democrat,
and we conclude that democrat is
protectionist we read Carlisle's speeches
and We are convinced that he is a sound
money advocate; we read the report of
democratic conventions in many states
and we conclude that he is fat silver
man; we read the life of Cleveland in
the White House and we are sure that a
democrat is an sristocrat, who knows
nothing of simplicity of any kind; We
read of the treasury deficit and the bond
sale and there is no evidence of great
4inancier having had anything to do
with it; we consider the Hawaiian fool
ishness and there is nothing of diplo-
macy there; we read the history of the
present administration and we wonder
where we ever got the idea that demo-
crat was a statesman; there Is one, and
only one definition that fills the
bill, namely: A democrat is one
who dies. but never resigns.

THE DALLES TO BE ADVERTISED

The real estate exchange of this city
have undertaken a commendable enter
prise in the publication of a pamphlet
concerning the resources and surround
ings of our city and county. If the edi,
torial work is carefully done and care is
used to exclude everything that might
Induce immigration under mistaken
ideas, and our resources are fairly rep
resented it will be of great use to the
community. If. however, there is mis-
representation, such as is too often
found in similar publications, it will be
a detriment to the people who are
visited by it and ultimately a harm TO
our city. But the matter is in the
hands of conservative men and we have
no reason to anticipate that it will be
unwisely or unfairly done. If by means
of the proposed pamphlet people in
other communities are induced to come
here to their own advantage, we shall be
benefited; if on the other hand it leads
to removals, which shall prove dieas-
trous TO those coming, our county will
be that much worse off.

HEAVY INHERITANCE TAX.
Frof. Commons Wants State to Receive
80 Per Cent. of All In~heritances.

Prof. John r. Commons, of Bloomington,
lectured before the Progress Club yesterday
on the topic of Indiana taxation. Professor
Commons favors a single-tax system, but
he does not believe the promoters of such
a movement should undertake to make it a
national affair. He thinks that the first
blow should be given local taxation. The
single-tax people, he says, AVE begun at
the wrong end. Land should not be taxed
for State purposes, but should be reserved
for local expenses. Corporations should be
taxed. but not their articles of association.
The State should demand no tax of a cor
poration until it has begun to receive an
1ncome; then taxation should commence.
Professor Commons wants street railroads,
gas and water companies exempt from tax
alton. Real-estate taxation should be made
to pay the municipal expenses. and corpora
tions serving the public ought to be COM
PEELED to reduce the cost of their Injuries,
so the man of moderate means could enjoy
them. The lecturer proposed an inheritance
tax which would take SO per cent. of the
property of the deceased. This amount
would almost pay the expenses of the State.

NORTHERN JAuNT OF COMMITTEES.
Members Entirely Satisfied with Su
p-erintendent Rogers.

The Senate and House committees on
benevolent institutions returned yesterday
evening from Fort Wayne. They inspected
the Long Cliff Hospital for Insane at To-
gansport and the School for Predetermined
Youths at Fort Wayne. The two commit
tees were represented by their respective
c~hairrnen, Senator Boyd and Representative
Remy, and several other members. There
was much more than a casual inspection
of the school for feeble-minded. A joint
session OF the two committees held Sat
urday night employed unusual measures to
gain complete information as to it's con-
dition. and wants. Members of the board
of trustees, superintendent of the school,
employees of the office, the physician, SUI
perintendent of the farm, and others, came
before the by request and an
swered such questions as were put to them
by Chairman Boyd and other members
The inquiry was even extended SO as
to reach soma of the inmates, with the
sole purpose of obtaining the fullest pos
sible. information as the basis of an in
intelligent, comprehensive report. 1t was
not IN the nature of an Investigation. as
there was no compulsory attendance of
but a stenographic record of questions and
answers was kept systematically as the
basis OF a report which it is expected will
soon be made to the General Assembly.
The members OF the two ex-
press themselves as entirely satisfied with
the management of the insane hospital at
Logansport. DIR. Rogers, the superintendent
OF that institution, is a Democrat, but in
the selection of his assistants politics has
not been made a test, and the hospital
has been run on a nonpartisan basis, merit
and fitness being the only qualifications de-
manded. The poll of the employees of the
Logansport hospital made last fall shows
that there were about the same number
of Democrats and Republicans. The mem
bers of the committee with whom a represen-
tative of the Journal talked yesterday ex-
pressed themselves in favor of the reten-
ton of DR.. Rogers as a guarantee of good
faith in the position that the Republican
party has taken with reference to the
management of the States benevolent in
situations.
The members of the two committees will
go to Richmond tomorrow to visit the
insane hospital at that place and the visit
to the institution at Evansville will prob
ably be made next Friday.

AGAINST KANkAKEE RIVER BILL.
Senate Committee VIII Hand In ar
Bile Reuort

The Senate committee on swamp lands
and drainage will report tomorrow against
Senator Crumpacker's bill providing for the
creation of a Kankakee river commission.
The purpose of the bill was to provide
means for the widening, strengthening and
deepening of the kankakee river with the
view to retaining several hundred thou
sand acres of fertile land that are now
under water a good part of the year. The
position of the committee with reference
to this particular bill is that if the Kan
kakee river district is drained the work
should be done and the expense borne by
the men who own the lands that 1t is pro-
posed to benefit. There is still in the hands
of the committee the bill of Senator Hol-
Ter, which differs from the Crumpacker bill
in that it proposes to make eligible to
membership on the commission men who
are interested in Kankakee lands.
Senator Phares, who is the chairman of
the committee on swamp lands and drain
age, states that the committee Is favorably
inclined toward the bill of Senator Eli
son, which proposes to wipe out all the
drainage laws that are now on the books
and substitute a general and comprehen-
sive measure. The ditch laws that are now
in force are in shreds and patches, some
of them conflicting and others obscure. 1t
is claimed for the Ellison bill that it en-
bodies all in the present laws that are
worth preserving, and that it contains
features that are not in the present law,
but which are necessary.

Soto sunctaro ut Y. NJ. c. A..

Soto Sunetaro, a Japanese fantasist, top
spinner and illusionist, and Signor Giuseppe
Marone, harp ~soloist, will be the attrac-
tion in the Y. NJ. C. A. lecture course to-
morrow evening. Sunetaro's entertainment
is a wonderful one. his own dexterity being
supplemented with beautiful japanese set
tings. novel electrical effects and handsome
costumes. Many of the curious Hindoo feats
performed by the fakirs of India, as well
as novel experiments in Japanese conjuring,
viii be performed by Sunetaro. Signor Ma
rome will play his W arrangements of An
ME Laurie and popular airs from Bohemian
Girl TIL Brooklyn Eagle said of one OF
his recent entertainments in that city:
"Sunetaro was particular pleasing in what
he termed his Hindoo feats. There was
quite as much beauty as mystery about
these. as he rolled yard after yard of vari-
Gus colored ribbons from the ends of his
fingers or from the interior of a bottle. This
was followed by yards OF delicate white
paper ribbon being unrolied from a small
silver tambourlne." This entertainment will
probably be among the best in the Y. NJ.
c. A. course and one of the most novel
ones given in the city this season.
