Special to the indianapolis Journal
KENTLAND, Ind, April 1S.-The tight
for the removal of the county seat of New
ton county from Kentland to Morocco has
been transferred from the Legislature to
the voters of the county, and the result
will be known July 10. Since 1897 the con-
test has been vigorously fought in the
county and in the Legislature. Considera-
BILE time of the session of that year was
consumed In a vain endeavor by Repre-
sentative Archibald to push bill through
the Senate providing for an election, but
the bill was defeated. AT the last session
Representative Hall introduced special
bill, which was amended and passed, re-
ceiving executive approval March 2. This
law, which applies directly to Newton
county, provides that petition bearing
the names of 400 freeholders and voters is
sufficient TO call an election, and If 65 per
cent. of the voters cast their ballot In ia
vor of relocation to some point named in
the petition the county seat shall be moved.
At the last session of the Board of Com
missioners of Newton county the people
of Morocco fully complied with the provf-
sions of this act. and an election was set
in June, as herein noted. Locally this has
been q live issue for forty years. Commits
sioners appointed by Governor Willard To-
Gated the county seat in 1859, and the for
NAL acceptance of the report was entered
in the commissioners record in June, 1860.
Since that date four attempts have been
made to remove. The first petition for re-
moval was filed Sept. 4. 1860; the second
June 3. 1861; the third March 3. 1870, and
the fourth June 90 1876. The last attempt
was bitterly fought in the courts. and the
petitioners were defeated. The present
contest will be determined at the polls. and
no attempt will be made by either side to
carry the controversy into the courts. In
the event Morocco fails to secure the re-
quired number OF voters petition asking
for relocation at Brook is on file, and an
other election will be held.

THE PRESIDENTS POSITION.
Congress, Not He, Responsible for
Legislation.
New York Independent

New York Independent.
We are asked by one and another cor
respondent why we put the blame Of the
present Porto Rico bill on the House and
Because legislation is the business of Con-
gress, and not of the President. His
business is to suggest legislation. and
then to execute whatever legislation is
passed. In his message the President
suggested righteous legislation and so far
is blameless. But the House refused to
accept his advice. For a while the Pres
ident seemed to stand by his first sug-
he privately withdrew those suggestions
and advised those who asked him that they
vote for the bill, as 1t was acceptable to
his party. we do not understand that he
preferred that bill. but that he preferred it
to the breakup of party unity. We believe
that by strongly leading, instead Of follow
ing, he might have carried unrestricted
commerce with Porto Rico, and that he
ought to have done so. but to his mind it
was better policy to yield and get what he
could without endangering the success of
the Republican party. There is place for
principle always, and a place for policy
often, and we are not going to judge the
President too harshly for thinking Ii his
duty to change his position, though we
think him mistaken, just as we have not
blamed senators or representatives per-
sonally for their honest, though mistaken,
action.
The passage of the bill will give Porto
Rico a chance to recuperate Business
can be resumed. Uncertainty will cease.
The President will appoint a civil Gov
ernor-one, we hope, acceptable to the peo-
ple such ar one as they are asking for.
Then let the Legislative Assembly be
speedily elected and laws enacted for the
support of the government of the Island,
and the tariff may end within year.
We must then wait for another session of
Congress before we can amend other in
felicities or, worse, before We can make
the island a full Territory, with delegate
in Congress and its people full citizens of
the United States.

Having been Endorsed by the Thirteenth
Indiana congressional convention at Elk
hart, Ind, on the 9Th ult., for nomination
as delegate at large to the Republican
national convention at Philadelphia, and
having since that time received letters
of Endorsement and encouragement from
various portions of the State, 1 want thus
publicly to express deep appreciation to
all these friends for their partiality. while
at the same time declining the proposed
honor. / have been twice favored in this
manner, first as delegate for the district

from the State in 1883.
Now it seems appropriate to me that
others who have done unselfish and able
work for the party should be rewarded by
this distinction. 1t is my express request,
accordingly, that my name be no longer
