DEATH OF EX-GOv. MATTHEWS.

DEATH OF EX-GOv. MATTHEWS.
In the death of Ex-Governor
Claud Matthews, the state of Indi-
ana loses one of her ablest men, and
the democratic party an invinclble
leader. He was but little past his
send year.
Claud Matthews was a farmer by
vocation and devoted his entire at
tention to farming, except his few
years of official life. He served in
the legislature, was secretary OF
state and governor. In 1896 he
was the choice of Indiana for the
presidency. The deceased was
strong on the stump and was
familiar with all public interests.
No man in Indiana had a greater
number of personal friends. He was
in the very prime of life.

more than one occasion had told them
that he would take his life some time.
Wednesday night the eldest daughter
returned from Plymouth where she has
been since Saturday last. She met her
father on the street, and after the usual
affectionate salutatlon he said to the
daughter that he intended going away.
The daughter replied, "Why, papa,

Wreck on the l.. T., Il w.

At noon Monday the l.. K. & w.
freight train from the south collided
with a stationary engine aid line of
cars which stood on the sidetrack in
front of the depot. The immediate
cause of the accident was an open
switch. supposed to have been left so
by brakeman. The engineer dis
covered the danger in time to avert
a serious wreck. The two cow-catch-
ers were welded together by the shock,
but the boilers and machinery remained
in tack. After an hours hard work
with chisel and mallet the throttles
were opened and the engines parted.

George Robins, of Bourbon, is now
confined in the Jail previous to his third
trip to Longcliffe. Sunday he ap
peared in several places of worship in
Bourbon and upon the streets in an
attire and manner which was character
istic of crazy man only. His talk is
all irrational He babbles away whole
rhspsodies in prose. Monday he
underwent the medical examination
necessary to his committal. On two
previous occasions he has visited Long
cliff and returned home apparently q
sane man. 1t is thought that no per-
manent relief can be furnished.

Ugly charges were preferred
against the supreme officers of the
order of Knights of Pythias, by
some representatives to the supreme
session held at Indianapolis. The
Sentinel published the charges with
out giving the name of its inform
ant, and is now confronted by a
lible suit instituted by r. L. c.
White, the supreme keeper of
Records and seals. The interview
set out that two years ago, there
was a reserve fund in the hands of
the treasurer of 100000. This
large sum was alleged to have all
disappeared, and the supreme
officers were obliged to borrow
$4,000 to meet the expenses of the
1903 session. On the surface the
charges seem TO be dlSCred1ted,
while the officers whose integrity
has been assailed assert that there is
nothing wrong. The libel suit was
instituted in order that the matter
can be settled in court and thus re-
move all grounds for allegations of
whitewashing or covering up. The
supreme officers receive large sala-
ries and liberal allowances for
travelling and other expenses, and it
may be that these large expendi-
lures gave rise to suspicion and
crooked work.

In speaking of how to protect the
game fish in Indiana streams and
get rid of the German carp, Judge
Elliott, of Marion county, says:
"The only way to get rid of the
carp is to permit seining at certain
times of the year. Let the law
state the time when it may be done,
and, between seasons, compel all
owners Of seins to deposit them
with a fish warden or someone
authorized to take care of them
SEEMING will remove very few of
the game fish The law ought also
to make dynamiting of streams a
penitentiary offense.

OPPOSES ANNEXATION OF PHILIP
PINES.

Samuel Gompers, president of
the Federation of Labor, is strongly
opposed to The annexation of the
Philippine islands. In a speech
delivered at Saratoga, N. Y, last
Saturday, he said:
1.-THE most reckless advocate of
annexation of the Philippine islands,
or of any populous island of the
group, must admit that this program
involves the government and domi-
nation of the many by the few, to
an extent and degree never before
known under the American flag
We have civilized savages against
their will in the process of our up
roofing of Indian tribes, but never
where it was not reasonably GER
tam that their places would soon be
taken by settled white population
many times as great as any wilder
ness occupied only by nomadic hunt
ers and warriors. In the Philip
pines, with it's seven or eight
millions, in an area of less than half
that of Texas, no such change can
ever take place.
"The whole moral effect of the
acquisition of the Philippine islands,
its semi-savage population, must be
to undo what has been accomplished
by organization and education upon
the lines of social, economic, politi-
cal and moral reform, particularly
in raising the standard of living for
the wage earners of the United
States. 1t will tend to breed con-
