INDIANA'S BIRTHDAY.
n prosperous State, Wrested From
swamps and Dense Forests.

From the indianapolis Journal
Indiana became state December ~
1876 eighty-three years ago. The cansus
taken to ascertain If the territory contain
ed the 10000 inhabitants which the ordi-
nance creating the territory of Indiana re-
quired before the people could be granted
statehood showed population of 63, 1897. of
which ZIP were voters. The enabling act
was drawn by friends of the territory. who
looked out for the interests of the people
securing, among other things, one section
OF the thirty-six in each township for the
building up OF a public school system The
growth of Indiana, all things considered.
has been most remarkable It was a conn
try covered with impenetrabie forests, and.
unlike the prairie states to the west on
Wnicn me soil was awaiting the immf-
grant, Indiana had to be dragged out of the
forests and the swamps. Today, more than
any other state of the northwest. It is a
witness to what years of toll, hardship and
courage on the part OF people can do.
At the outset its growth was slow because
OF the many obstacles, which included IN
dams. trackiess forests and the difficuitv
OF communication. As q state 1t Is one of
the creations Of the century which will
close with 1900. Indeed. 1t is not too much
to say that it is one Of the miracles which
the perseverance Of man, urged by his ne
cessities, has worked out.
What are now the more populous portfons
of the state were forests and swamps. THE
territory covered by Indianapolis was a
swamp covered with trees and underbrush.
Its site was arbitrary, but as we see the
city today Its selection was fortunate. And
so or other portions of the state now the
most populous and fertile Other states
have acquired larger population In fewer
years, but no one of them has today a
better form of state government. better
system of public Instruction, more general
inteiligence, or more diversified Interests
that aid to make 1t sustain a population
indiana has few men Of great wealth. but
1t can be said that 1t has fewer honsl nIs
poor. 1t is state in which no person who
VIII work need go hungry. That ia a 9raat
thing to say for any state.
