to the Board April Myron
King Will Sue the Rioters.

The State Printing Board met yesterday
afternoon and elected Thomas ]. Carter,
OF this city, as clerk of the board. He
succeeds Col. Maynard. veteran Demo-
cratic office holder about the Statehouse.
Mr.. Carter is at present deputy city clerk
and is member of the indianapolis Typo
graphical Union, No. 1. The union made
request OF the Republican members, Sec
rotary of State Owen and Auditor of State
Daily, to select the clerk from the union
and the request was needed in marked
contrast to the action of the Democratic
boards of the last few years who, hay-
ing promised to select union printer for
the place, invariably selected some one not
connected with the union. Mr.. Carter is
young of excellent qualifications in
tellectually and is also a man of thorough
integrity. The law does not require bond
of the clerk and he will assume his duties
April /. He has appointments to make.
His Office is most directly connected with
the Secretary of State, and both Mr.. Owen
and Mr.. Daily voted for him on the first
ballot. The selection has been decided in
their minds for two months Governor
Matthews voted for Col. Maynard.
Thomas j. Carter was born in January,
1860, in Pendleton, his father being William
Carter. Both father and mother still
living in Pendleton. Their son obtained
and early in life entered the printing office
Of the Pendleton Republican and began to
learn the printing trade. In 1879 he went
to Anderson to live and worked the
local papers there, being foreman of one
of the offices. In two years he came to
indianapolis and took case in one of
the newspaper offices and he has been con-
nected at various times with most of the
newspapers and several of the leading print
ing offices of the city At the time OF. his
becoming deputy clerk to City Clerk Nixon
he was foreman of the Indianapolis Print
Ing. Company. He Joined the Typographical
Union soon after coming to this city and
has always been an active Republican and
during the latter part of the campaign of
1894 acted as chairman pro tenn. of the
congressional district and was in charge
of the close of Charles l.. Henry's bril-
liant canvass for Congress. Mr.. Carter has
made an unusually wide circle of friends
while connected with the city court, and
mingled with the congratulations yesterday
could be heard expressions of regret from
city officials that his connection with them
was to be severed. Mr.. Carter is mar
ried and has one child.

Change i'm German Teaching.

The School Board is thinking of making
a change in the manner in which German is
taught. Heretofore special instructors have
been employed who have nothing to do but
teach those who desire to study the lam
gtage. AT school No. an experiment has
been made and the teacher of German is
compelled to teach other branches Should
the teaching of German be done by regular
teachers IL would amount TO a saving of
about $40, 600 annually.

Prof. !. w. Jenk..s Lecture.

Prof. J. w. jerks, of Cornell University,
lectured before the Contemporary Club last
night on what Political Reforms VIII Best
Improve the Industrial Situation" The fall
lacy of majority representation under our
present form of government furnished him
theme to begin with, and he cited fact and
argument to show that our fancied deInoc-
racy is more of an oligarchy, through the
subtle and even direct means by which the
wealthy classes control legislation. Com
PARSONS were given to prove that even in
political landslides the party that gains con-
troll in a legislative body does not always
represent tie majority. In the case of q
gerrymander one party may gain major
ity of representatives, and yet that party
would have a minority of the total number
of votes cast. Mr.. Jencks thought a plan
of proportional representation might be a
step in the right direction This plan con-
templated representation in legislative as
semblies of all political parties or groups,
the proportion, of course, to be according
to the ratio of strength of the party in the
State. If, as an example, one representative
was allowed for every 5000 votes in the
State, the Prohibitonists in Indiana might
have member or several members in the
General Assembly, although, where required
to elect by district, they would not have
representation at all. The lecturer thought,
the one-rnan or poiitical-boss power would
be thing of the past, for 1t would be i'm
possible to control the different groups as
political machine is now controlled.
