4 Plea for Fair play.

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal:
You nave given place in your columns TO
an article about a De PAW spy caught
at the Earlham debate While the article
is correct there is q side which you have
not told, because / am sure you did not
know. An Earlham man was sent by some
few persons to the De Pauw debate, where
he took notes which are in the possession
of Earlham's team. This was not known
to all the students, and possibly may not
be even now. Furthermore, it was not
brought before the Oratorical Association,
and so it has had no official recognition.
In justice to the student body here / want
10 say 4 don't beiieVe it approves of such
sneaking, unsportsmanlike tactics. Some of
us, at least, are not cowardly enough to
try to take an unfair advantage. / espe-
cially deplore the facts of the case, since
De Pauw's part has been put before the
public in the most unfavorable light, while
Earham evidently depends on her past
reputation for honesty and fair dealing to
shield her from the imputation of pursuing
a policy strongly condemned by herself.
The fight for honesty, purity, fairness and
true craftsmanship in this college has been
sharp and vigorous Her reputation attests
the general success of this battle in every
line of college contest 1T is humiliating,
then, to some of us to see what has been
done by an irresponsible few, and 1 per-
sonally and unofficially enter this protest.

claimed that man must be the focal point
for all this modern light, or it is not better
than darkness; that the common man is far
in the rear of the stupendous visible APP
paratus of civilization; that one-story men
are living in four-story houses. He showed
that despotism has been the hindering curse
to the development of the individual man.
He paid high tribute to our free institu-
tions, and asserted that no government
should exist without the consent of the gov
erned. he gave the history of American
liberty from the time of the landing of the
pilgrim fathers to the adoption of the
Constitution. He gave the causes OF the
civil war and showed the effect of the sue
cess of the government in suppressing the

government - that of the people - is the
strongest and best. and that since our tri-
umph a republic has been established in

LETTER FROM G. CLEVELAND
EX-Prcsident Hopes Silverifex VIII
Not Carry the Next Congress,

PHILADELPHIA, March 4.--Representa-
tives of the state organization of the JEFF
fersonian, or gold Democratic party, met
here to-day and resolved to put in the field
a ticket of their own for state officers, from
the governorship down and for members Of
Congress in every district. A letter from
ex-President Cleveland was read in which
he says:
Il hope most sincerely that there may be
a sOund-money movement in Pennsylvania
that will be strong and useful. cannot
account for the arrogant confidence of the
free-silyer forces except upon the theory
that they are led to believe that there IS
very little aggressive effort to be made by
their opponents. 1t is a strange thing that
the apparent apathy in many of our sound
money States should give plausiblity TO
such Il belief. If anyone believing with us
supposes that free silver can be prevented
from controlling the two houses of next
Congress without effective organization and
hard work the quicker he abandons that
idea the more useful he will be as a sound
money man. / am 50 earnest in my desire
to see our country blessed with safe money
and q suitable financial system that | am
Of the opinion we ought TO give patriotic
and consistent support to any plan which
insures this result and which has the Gle
ments that promise its successful ad-
Vocacy"
An executive committee of fifteen was an
pointed to carry out the purposes OF tho
meeting.

DE PAUw,s REJOINDER.
Students Claim EarIhamites Are
.sShort" on Debating Etiquette.

Special to the Indianapolis Journ9i
GREENCASTLE, Ind, March 4.-The ar
ticle in to-day's Journal from Richmond
headed de PAW Spy Robbed has aroused
considerable feeling at the university, and
it is claimed by De Paw students is mis-
leading in some of it's statements. Mr..
Strattan, the De PAW student, was at
Earlham in no sense as a spy, they say.
He was there, as was his right, as a Wis
itor, and in this connection it may be added
as information for Earlham that in the de-
bates heretofore held between De PAW and
Indiana University each year it has always
been customary for representatives of one
college to visit the other and in every in
stance such delegates were given cordial
such notes they desired. De Paw stu
dents say that Earlhams inexperience in
debating etiquette caused the Richmond
students to show such zeal in protecting
their precious arguments, as was reported
in the Journal. Mr.. Strattan says although
he surrendered his notes he is possessed of
q good memory, and after his rather un-
pleasant experience on the Earlham campus
he retired to his hotel and by working until
O'Clock in the morning was enabled to
reproduce all the information and notes he
had previously made. De Paw will be none
the worse for the loss of Mr.. Strattan' s
notebook, and the university representa-
tives who are to meet Earlham are conf
dent of winning easily in the final contest.

ANDERSON. Ind, March 4.-Word from
White Horn, Col. just received here, tells
OF a most remarkable escape of an Indiana
man from being strung up. L. Fl. Smith,
o professor in the Anderson High School,
went West last year He reached White
Horn some time ago, and in trying to re-
store peace between two belligerent cow
boys who were pounding each other in a
terrible fight last week he managed to get
one of the revolvers. The gang was drunk,
and some question arose about him steal
ing the revolver 1T was decided to string
him up, and it took the combined talking
efforts of the sheriff and the man himself
to convince the boys that he hid the re-
vOlver only by way of restoring peace. 1t
took some time to convince them, and then
he became the hero of the hour. He was
lifted on q platform and asked to make q
speech He gave them the best he had in
stock Smith is well known in Indiana. He
is graduate of the State University.

Views of Sailors as Reflected by
Doctor just from Havana.

CLEVELAND, o., March 4.-Dr. f. ii.
Biggar, one of. the most prominent ply
sicians and surgeons CT Cleveland, has just
returned from Key West, where he was
in the midst of the excitement which fol-
lowed the blowing up of the battle ship
Maine and conversed with several of those
who were on the Inflated ship at the time
OF the disaster. He found that all of those
who were willing to discuss the matter at
all were confident that the explosion had
been caused by an outside force, probably
a torpedo. THE officers acre very ret
icent, bu. from their manner it seemed
that they had no doubt as to the Origin
of the trouble" said Biggar. Some of the
'midfhes' and sailors were more outspoken,
and did not hesitate to say that the work
had been done by q torpedo. They offered
several reasons for this belief, all of which
seemed to justify them in thinking as they
did For instance, the mast was lifted right
out OF It's place in the vessel and the men
were sure that this could only have been
Gone by force from underneath. IT the
explosion had been on the inside, they ar
gued the mast would have been shattered
and thrown Sideways The bow of the
Maine was split just as il a wedge had
been driven at the bottom of the boat on
the outside and the hull was bent forward
as If by an external force applied directly
under it. The diver of the Maine, Martin
Riorden. was also at Key West He was
decidedly of opinion that the Maine was
tempered with on the outside. / was told
was noticed In the water as If some smaller
craft were moving around the Maine. No
particular attention was paid to this at
the time, but 1t is remembered noW.
