One of the strongest arguments in favor
of reform in township management is the
statement given by Miss Wilson, pres
ident of the Indiana Conference of Charities,
showing that its tendency has been to pro-
mote the growth of pauperism. No evil
grows so rapidly as pauperism. The town
ship officers who have been liberal in aiding
what are called outdoor paupers will find
that the number will increase much faster
than population. Once give public charity
a sort of standing by extending it to a
large number and the township will always
face an increasing levy for support of the

By far the most important and instructive
testimony that has been presented to the
commission investigating the conduct of the
war is that of General Breckenridge. He
seems to make 1t very clear that the alb
sorption of the inspectors department by
the adjutant general is responsible for the
alleged shortcomings of the inspectors, who
are the eyes and ears of the army. His tes-
timony confirms the impression that the adj
jutant general has been ambitious to be too
much of the army. 1t is known by state
officials that he did not send out orders pre-
nared by the secretary Of war.

The Philadelphia Press has authentic in
formation that there are now on the ocean
heading for that city ninety-three foreign
steamships under charter to return to Eu-
rope with cargoes of grain. AS these YES
sells will carry an average of 1900 quarters
of grain, the entire fleet will take out with
in the next sixty days say 11,16O,OOO bushels
Of grain. This estimate does not include a
large number of vessels now en- route for
European ports which are under contract
to return for another cargo, and, of course
it relates only to the port of Philadelphia

Jerry Simpson in an interview says that
he opposed the Bailey policy in the House
that of crowding the war upon the Repub-
licans. because he was sure it would be a
winning card for them. But Bailey went
on, and the Republicans declared war,
which has given the party votes and caused
fusionists to stay at home in Kansas.
Whether the war was right or not seems
not to have troubled Simpson, since the only
thing he considered was getting back to the
House 1t seems not to have occurred to
Simpson that the people of the Seventh
Kansas district had enough of him when
they found out that he went back to the
Kansas Legislature to help the railroads
prevent the passage Of the Populist mimi
mum freight bill.

Santiago dispatches indicate that certain

The business men of the South have doubt

ocratic South in the House the Republicans
can have a majority in that branch in an off

It appears that MIR. jerks, the Democratic
