How They Feel About 1t.

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal:
Provoked to the truth by Senator Hill, of
New York, Senator Pugh, of Alabama, we'll
said in the Senate on Thursday that this
Congress had been engaged chiefly in tear
ing down the interests Of the country" and
that it was now time to stop it. give you
another incident showing how business men,
regardless of parties, are feeling just now.
In group of successful business men, re-
Gently, commenting on the way things were
going at Washington, and in the country
generally, one asked this question: What
would be the probable effect upon the bust
ness of the country were it known now
that General Harrison would be President
again on the 4th of March next" prom
inent business man, well-known as DEM
ocrat replied that the country would not
have to wait till March to see the effect,
for it would be seen now in greatly better
times.
This, of course. is the universal feeling
among Republicans of all classes and bust
on March and an executive who has been
thoroughly tried, and SO much enjoying
wait for except the formal things for a res
toration of confidence. The wreck of bust
ness industry came long before the tariff
reform bill. 1t was what the intelligent
business interests knew would come, and
they stopped and waited. The same is true
of the present currency proposals and agi-
tation. But for the fact that this Congress
has less than sixty days for mischief, and
the utter confusion in their own councils,
assuring that nothing can be done, there
would probably be a money panic as there
was business panic. While needing meas
ures providing revenue for current expenses,
the majority in that body are searching in
the dark for some way toward party light
1t is a marvellous situation. The gold re-
serve would stay if it was not required for
current expenses. But, like an individual
with the balances on hand, exhausted, and
500 O0O, 600 of paper annually put on the mar
- fl,0 1- Of "a in
a year by current expenses. creditors abroad
are naturally looking after their own inter
ests, lest the estate becomes wrecked, as
in the sixties, when we had to pay II per
cent on our paper. Let the country be
thankful that forty-five days will put an
end to any real new danger. j. 3. G.

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal:
In your issue of to-day appears an edi-
torial in regard to failure of county and
township officers in making returns ana
the necessity for some reform IN the mat
fer. With a recollection fresh in our minds
of Greene Smiths raid on the school FUNDS,
and that there has been no change in the
laws to prevent his successor in follow
ing the same line Of action Though we
hope for better things, as he is a Repub-
ican) it would seem that some law surely
could be enacted whereby a stop could be
put to it, The business of the State is no
greater than that Of the larger railroad cor
orations and should be conducted on the
same business principals, and if that was
the case the net per centage of loss to the
State would fall far short OF what 1t does.

their agents and employees De formulate

these defalcations that occur 50 frequently
in public officers and the idea that an

hide and escape the penalty through

is the practice of giving personal bonds;
from this source many a good man has

tire savings gone, a stain on his
times with term in the penitentiary star

is usual to get as many-persons on it as
possible, and very often among the num-
Der are men who apparently are all right
and in good condition financially; they have
conferred a favor on the officer, and in
return ask him to go on their paper. The
officer would much rather decline, but he
has received a favor, and cannot. The firm
gets in trouble, and the officer has the
paper to pay; he sometimes uses public
money to do so; other troubles come and
he is unable to return the money, and
when he goes out of office is found to be
a defaulter. Now. to prevent this, let pub
lie business be transacted in the way the
larger railroads manage their affairs-let all
officers give a guarantee company bond.
Enact law to that effect, and, if it be
possible to do So make the Endorsement
of man holding a public office nullity

in such position. With personal bond an
officer will take risks in loaning money
that he would not think of with a guaran-
tee company's bond, for he would expect
his bondsnen to help him out in case of
trouble, but he can expect nothing of this
kind with a guarantee bond, and conse-
quently will not take the risks Another

may see something wrong. but dislike to
a guarantee company they coulda be re-
quired to have an officer inspect the books

for fear he may be caught. E.. C. B.

The Misses Nora and Alice Norris, two
young women, eighteen and nineteen years
old, residing three miles north of South
west-bound freight train on the Wabash
railroad. The crossing where the accident
occurred is blinded by long lumber piles,
and there has been many hairbreadth es-
capes in the past at this point. The re-
mains of one were picked up a few yards
west of the crossing, and she lived but a
several hundred yards by the pilot of the

Norris was a music teacher of considerable
note, and had wide acquaintance in this
part of the State The trainmen claim to
have given the customary signals before
