EXPRESS CASES DISPOSED OF.
Companies Settle with the State and
the Suits Are DISMISSED.

companies Settle with the State and
the Suits Are Dismissed.
Yesterday morning the final steps were
taken in the litigation between the State
of Indiana and the Adams, American and
United States express companies, which
has for a long time occupied the attention
of the state courts. The litigation began
nearly three years ago, when the State,
under the supplementary tax law of 1898,
brought suit against the express companies
to collect taxes alleged to be due for the
years 1898 and 1894.
The provisions of the compromise between
the State and the express companies were
published in the Journal a few days ago.
The effect of the action was that the cor
pCrat1ons were to pay to the State the taxes
cue 1of the TWO years, including the de-
nnquent penalty of 16 per cent, besides the
o0-per-cent. penalty imposed by the supple
mental law of 1893. For the year 1895 the
companies agreed to pay the full amount
of taxes, with the 16-per-cent. penalty, the
State to throw off the 50-per-cent. penalty.
In accordance with this agreement there
ives yesterday paid to the attorney general
a sum slightly in excess of $50, 600 for the
three years. On receipt Of the amounts the
attorney general went to the Supreme
Court and asked that the judgment of the
lower court be reversed on confession of
errors, and that the case be rernanded to
ing taken, the attorney general went to
the lower court and had the cases against
the express companies dismissed.

The Oakland High School, BOYS are very
indignant at the criticism made OF their
conduct after the recent A. A. /. field day.
At Inc conclusion of the sport the boys
went to the Oakland Theater, and accord
ing to published report ir late county
paper they are cred tied with going out be-
tween the acts, raidinG the bar, coming
back under the influence of liquor and
creating disturbance by hooting and
Kissing the actors. A report of the pro-
ceed ings as published was sentto Princl-
pal McChesney OF tie High School.
Principal McChesn called the boys to-
gether ana read to them the report. They
made a vigorous denial, and while they
admitted that they had yelled they only
did so between the acts and did not dis
turb the play. They deny absolutely that
any one of them entered a barroom,
either between acts or at all, and say that
if the writer of the article saw boys do so
they must have been those not connected
with the school.
The reputation OF the school being at
stake, and the offensive publication being
likely to be copleI extens vely all over the
ate, Principal McCheSney has made
public denial of the charges. He says
that his scholars have always borne a
good reputation, and he does not believe
there is any foundation for tine charges.

ment, is as foolish as it would nave been
to predict permanence for the Roman en-

can we say, as some say, that our Govern

I'VE do not wish our institutions in their
present form TO be permanent and we can
look with qualification at the changes in
the form of government which accompany
the steps of progress. The danger lies in
return to rejected principles.
America is threatened to-day by a
modern feudalism, whose power rests not
on primoeeniture, but on the possession
of am assed wealth. The modern is more
dangerous than the medieval feudalis m,
for the modern feudal lord, often corpo-
rate, is not bound to the labOrer by the
confidential bond which connected the
medieval feudal lord and his vsssal.
Signs of retrogression in the United
States are seen in the departure OF the
people from The plain habits Of living OF
