THE INDIANA PLAN"
Presbyterian Com mittee, to Meet Here
Soon, to Consider 1t.

On the invitation of Governor Mount, the
PRESBYTERIAN committee on synodical home
missions is to meet in this city on Thurs
day, Nov H. The sessions of the commit
tee will last until Friday evening. The COM
nittee is composed of the following minis
tiers and ruling elders: Rev. John L. With
row. ID. d. Synod of Illinois; Rev. John
Dixon. D. D. Synod of New Jersey Rev.
w. p. Kane, D. D., Synod of Illinois; Rev.
John S. Mcintosh, u. D., Synod of Penn
sylvania; Rev. Samuel j. Niccolls, d. D.,
Synod of Missouri: Rev. j. McCluskey
Blayney, d. D., Synod Of Kentucky; Rev.
r. M. Hayes, Synod Of Oregon; Rev John
McHolmes d. D., Synod of New York;
Rev. D. S. Tappan, d. D., Synod of Ohio;
Rev. William II. Logan, Synod of Balti-
more; Rev. George l.. Spinning, d. D.,
Board of Home Missions; Governor James
A. Mount, Synod of Indiana; Charles E.
Vanderburg, Synod of Minnesota; Victor l..
Lane, Synod of Michigan; Mr.. John b. Min
mis-, Synod of Tennessee.
One of the important questions to come
before the committee is the method of dis
tributing the synodical home mission funds.
Under the present method, all collections
are sent to the Board of Home Missions
in New York, and there the fund is ap-
portioned among the States. There is a
strong sentiment in favor of adopting what
is known as the Indiana plan" This sys-
tenn allows each synod to control the ex-
penditure of the funds it has collected, per-
mits it TO handle it's own missions sending
any surplus it may have to New York In
case of a deficiency. the synod may ask
the Home Mission Board to help it out.
On Thursday evening, Nov. IL, a mass
meeting of Presbyterians will be held at the
First Presbyterian Church, when General
Harrison will preside. On this occasion
there will be addresses on the mission work
in America Among the speakers will be
DR.. John l.. Withrow, Of Chicago, formerly
pastor of the Second Presbyterian Church
of this city, Rev. Samuel Niccolls pastor
of the Second Presbyterian Church, of St.
Louis; Rev. John McHolmes pastor of the
State-street Church, of Albany, n. Y; Rev.
George L. Spinning, pastor of the Presby-
terrain Church, of Orange, n. j.
1t is proposed by the Presbyterian minis
ters and prominent laymen of the city to
give a luncheon to the visitors Thursday
noon at the Denison House, when Governor
Mount will preside. The home mission COM
mttee was appointed by the General As
sembly of the Presbyterian Church at it's
meeting last May.

VICTORIA TO GROVER.
Not Clear why the Queen Should Con-
graduate This Private Citizen.
Washington Posi-

Quite the most amusing incident of the
day is the telegram of congratulation sent
by Queen Victoria to Hon. Grover Cleve-
land on the occasion of the birth of the
son and heir. OF course, a telegram from
the Queen really means a telegram from
the Cabinet The excellent old lady is
rot allowed to do these things herself.
The message of felicitation, therefore, is
a message approved, if not inspired. by
the Cabinet. And now comes the comic
Why should Queen Victoria, with the
consent and the encouragement of the
British Cabinet, congratulate Mr.. Cleve-
land on the birth of son? He is no
longer her great and good friend He has
ceased to be her fellow-sovereign. He is
merely a plain American citizen in pri-
vate life When the Hon. Benjamin Hair
rison, also an ex-President got married, a
year or ago why did not the Queen as
sure him of her good wishes and high
consideration, and when. in the course of
events, he became father, why was not
the Queens qualification conveyed to him?
Upon what conceivable ground should Mr.
Cleveland be immersed in royal sympathy
which was withheld from Mr.. Harrison?
The greatest humiliation ever inflicted by
this country upon England. since the days
of George Washington and Andrew Jack
son, was inflicted through the agency of
President Cleveland. The curt dismissal of
lister, in 1885, was insulting enough, but the
Venezuelan message was slap in the face
1t was a slap delivered in public, in the
presence of all Europe. and it had to be
submitted to in meekness. Can it be pos
sible that England likes to be slapped and
that our defense of monometallism and our
bond sales make salve enough for all such
wounds?
TO be sure. while Mr.. Cleveland was in
hicting this indescribable indignity upon
the British government, there was Mr.
Bayard fawning upon everybody he could
approach, telling English audiences that
the Americans were a rude people, re-
quiring the severest discipline, and Civ
ing it to be understood that he and Mr.
Cleveland would do their best to civilize
and soften us. 1t is conceivable. though
not likely that all this toadysim and tall
wagging may have been credited to Mr.
Bayard's master. But making the broad
est allowance in that direction. we still find
this overture of Queen Victoria at once be-
widering and comcal Has Mr.. Cleveland
been taken into the royal set. and are his
domestic vicissitudes to be regarded here
after with royal soicitude? Does the
Queen love him for the insults he has put
upon her government, or has she forgiven
those insults for the sake of his services
To british finance? Has the Berserker
changed his armor for the gaberdine of the
money changer, and is the fierce old blood
that once ran fast in British veins so cool
in this degenerate age that a slap can no
longer bring it to the boiling point?
Well, IL is an interesting episode look
at it as you will. Victoria 10 Grover!

There is no lack of game on any of the

are thousands of canvasbacks and redheads
