In a grudging spirit, because Terre Haute
and there is prosperity enough for all But
in these days of competition the rule is
every city for itself and d~ecadence take the
hindmost. OF course, this city would like
TO nave the twelve new industries with
s1,365,co capital stock that Terre HATTIE has
and probably if il had shown equal enter
prise, energy and liberality it might have
got part of them. Let us at least rejoice
that they remain in the State.
There is one aspect Of the case that points
a moral. 1t is said the new glass factories
in Terre Haute, of which there are four,
use as fuel an artificial gas produced di-
rectly from coal, and at a cost which is
said to be as low as natural gas in the gas
belt. Its low cost is attributed TO the low
price at which soft coal is delivered in
Terre Haute. This is a strong argument
in favor of the construction of the proposed
Southern Indiana Railroad and it's admis-
sion to the city. While that road would
nave other valuable features, it would be
essentially a coal road. and with proper
management it could furnish coal In this
city as cheaply as it is furnished I'm Terre
Haute. At present there is nothing of
greater Importance to this city than cheap
coal, but it should be remembered thai it
takes combined and harmonious effort to
secure new railroads as well as new fac
tories

A. TO THE SWORD.

1t is recommended that the sword be dis
continued in the army on the ground that
it is a useless and cumbersome appendage
to the military or naval officer, now that it
is of no practical use in battle. AS a weap-
on the sword has been of little value since
the discovery of firearms. In real wars of
the last century cavalry has infrequently
used the sabre, but only when firearms
were not at hand. If the report is true that
the suggestion of abolishing the sword
comes from officers who contrive 20 spend
most of their time in Washington, the
point may be said to be we'll taken, since
they nave no more use for swords than
have other clerks at the national capital.
1t is very doubtful, however, if the sword
is recognized as an impeachment by both
mounted and unmounted officers who are in
command of troops. For centuries, in
armies, the sword has been the emblem of
authority. 1t is a sign that the man wear
ing it is an officer and is on duty. The fig
ures on his straps or his collar may show
the grade of his office, but the sword
shows without his telling it that he is on
duty, and represents authority. Having the
sanction of hundreds of years as the emb-
lem of authority, what substitute could be
adopted TO show that an officer is on duty?
The patrolman has a club, which shows
that he is on duty-would such a badge be
less cumbersome thar the sword for a mill
tary officer?
In civic organizations, particularly Sc
cret orders, the sword is a conspicuous
feature in the outfit. What sort of a ''Sir
knight would a man in uniform be with
out a sword at his side? What a tame af-
fair a parade with uniforms, decorations
and waving plumes would be if the sword
were abolished Indeed. so much is the
sword TO all such organizations that there
is reason TO believe that such uniformed
organizations would fan into decay if the
lons-respected emblem of the higher orders
of men should be abolished. There are
those who will quote the text about beat
ing swords into pruning hooks when their
abolition lie opposed. To such. answer can
be made that until We have come so near
the millennium that armed men are not
needed. the sword can be sent TO the fabri-
Gator OF horticultural implements There is
reason to believe that for years to come the
emblems Of visible authority like the sword

LET Us LEARN FROM TERRE HAUTE

The Journal feels moved to congratulate
the city Of Terre Haute on the boom it is
enjoying as evidenced by important recent
additions TO its manufacturing industries
and a corresponding increase of population.
The enterprising citizens who by their en-
terprise, energy and liberality brought on
this condition are to be felicitated on the
success OF their efforts. Such things do not
come to pass by accident. In these days
OF competition and rivalry among cities as
we'll as individuals they are accomplished
only by intelligent. persistent and well-di-
rected effort. The lesson is that every city
should make the most Of its advantages to
attract new business and population and
extend its trade, and whatever these ad-
vantages are they must be supplemented by
organized and individual effort 10 produce
practical results. As a result of such eff
forts il is said that during the last eighteen
months there lave been brought to Terre
Haute twelve new manufacturing ndus-
tries with $1.S65.OO capital and giving en-
ployment to 800 persons. most of whom
are newcomers. Few cities can show equal
results accomplished in a like period by
sheer force OF local enterprise and without
the aid Of any special advantage. Most,
if not all, of these industries have been Sc
cured by the payment OF a subsidy or
bonus. the fund being raised by popular
subscription. The subsidy business can be
overdone, but. properly managed. it is a
safe and legitimate method OF securing new
industries. In the present case the fac
tories have been landed and anchored. and
the people are perfectly satisfied with the
results.
In all this there is a lesson for this city.
Terre Haute is in the midst OF a rich and
~populous country and is a good distributing
point. but no one will claim that IT sur
passes indianapolis in these respects. Most
of the new industries that have been Sc
cured for Terre Haute came from the
natural gas belt, showing that manufactur-
ers are beginning TO make timely provision
for the failure Of that fuel. who knows
but most OF these industries might have
been secured for this city had the same
kind and amount OF effort been made that
was made at Terre Hsute? This is not said

will be needed. Every year legislatures are
d~evising schemes to keep up a well-disci-
plined militia. but who of those having ex-
dierly conduct without the sword-bearing
officer? Even the enlisted man who refers
to his officers sword as a "toad-stabber"
will appear to be no soldier upon examina-
ton. Who would accept a commission or
who would 80 to the expense of purchasing
a respondent suit of military clothing and
equipment il the sword should be abol-
ished? In such an event, that marvel of
gold lace and cooked hat, known as the
Governors staff. might be mistaken for an
overdressed battalion Of privates if their
loins were not begirt with the authorizing
sword.
From the earliest period of which there
is record the sword has been the synonym
OF authority and power. 1t was "a flaming
sword which turned every way" that kept
man from stealing pack to the useless life
OF the Garden of Eden; it was the cry of
'the sword Of the Lord and Gideon which
made the army of three hundred victorious.
The man wearing the sword has been the
leader in the struggle for freedom. The
sword is everywhere associated with robust
patriotism. 1t is 1.-THE sword Of Bunke
Hill' that. in the song of that name, rouses
the spirit of patriotism. Substitute for the
sword any other emblem of authority, the
billy, for instance, and what would become
of the soul-stirring song? In thousands of
homes, north and south, can be found,
hanging in some conspicuous place. a
rusty old sword. 1t is the mute witness of
a four years struggle over a principle.
Grandfathers tell grandchildren where that
rusty old sword has been, and what the
wearer saw, and Of the deeds Of which he
was a small part. 1t will remain for genera
tons to come the silent teacher of patriot
ism. 1t will remain the honored emblem of
authority and achievement unless carpet
knights who draw the pay of soldiers but
shirk the duties of such by special details
shall be able to induce Congress to de-
clare that the sword is useless and cum
bersome and must be abolished.

WALL STREET AND THE MONEY
POWER.

Wall street and the so-called money
power which is supposed to nave its lair
in that locality nave probably served as a
theme for more demagogy than any other
feature OF American life. 1t must be saio,
however, that criticism and denunciation
Of them have generally come from profess
sional politicians and ignorant ranters. 1t
is unusual to find a banker criticising Wall
street as one did at the recent convention
OF the Ohio Banke Association. The
speaker, who was a national banker,
ascribed financial crises to the Wall-street
stock market and to what is characterized
as a money trust" in New York. This
often come from political demagogues Of
the Populist and other kindred schools, but
it shows similar ignorance if not malice.
Wall street is simply a conventional name
for the banking interests OF New York,
and when one abuses the street he abuses
capital in general. There is not a great
commercial city in the world that has not
its street or quarter given over specially
to banking and financial establishments,
but this is the only country where would-pe
leaders of public opinion seek popularity
by abusing those interests. A country
without capital would be a country with
out civilization, and a great city without
capital-but that is an impossibility, and
therefore not worth talking about. 1t is
not more natural for water to run down
hill than it is for capital in all parts OF
the country to seek trade ~centers, and once
there to fraternize and combine. Wall
street, by which is still meant the banking
and financial institutions of New York,
could not exist if the country were not be-
hind them. Every country bank in the
United States contributes to making Wall
street and maintaining its prestige. They
are its feeders, as rivulets are of creeks and
these in turn of larger streams. Wall
street is in business to make money just
as country banks are, n financial crises
are no more desired by the street than they
are by the people at large. 1t should be
remembered also that nearly all the great
local enterprises in the country, such as
steam. electric and interurban railroads
and many Of the large manufacturing cor
porations, are financed in Wall street. No
doubt there are abuses in the street, but
it's dominating influence is conservative.
The so-called money power" is in the
main a conservative, patriotic, progressive
and constructive power. 1t has often ex-
erted itself to prevent panics and finan-
cial crises, and only yields to them when
it can no longer control the conditions
tina cause them. These conditions are
generally brought about by the people and
not by the money power. Wall street and
the money power, whatever that much
abused phrase stand for, may have their
faults, but this would be a poor country
without them. Abuse of them should be
left to the Populists, ignoramuses and An
archiSts.

There is a disposition in certain quarters
to make merry over the suit brought by Mr..
Ferdinando Avendano, an opera singer,
against the city of st. Louis to compel it to
enforce it's smoke ordinance, because the
heavy coal smoke with which the air Of the
city is loaded injured his vocal organs and
prevented him from singing. There is
nothing really humorous in the incident,
and it may prove to a serious II far
reaching effects. Physicians agree that coal
smoke is injurious to the one who inhales
it; it vitiates the air, clogs the air passages
and inflames the lungs. In this city the
sufferers from asthmatic affections, coughs
and "colds on the lungs" are unusually
numerous in spite of the fact that the tenn
perature for weeks has been remarkably
uniform, and the air outside of the smoke
limit dry and in~vigorating. Undoubtedly
the heavy smoke which pours from the
downtown chimneys and envelopes the city
like a pail has much to do with the pre-
iailing maladicS. IL is not unreasonable TO
suppose that a singers throat, which is a
very sensitive and delicate organ might be
injured from the same cause. Thus the
freedom from smoke becomes not only a
matter of hygienic but of professional i'm
portance. If Mr.. Avendano shall succeed in
securing damages from the city Of st. Louis
his example is likely to be followed by
others who have suffered in various ways
through the same negligence of the authori-
ties in that and other cities. Merchants, for
instance, whose stocks of goods are dam
aged by the all-pervading SCOT, housekeep-
ers who's carpets and furniture are in
jured, victims of bronchial affections-all
these nave serious grievance from which
they may decide to seek relief by process
of law. At all events, it behooves the au-
thorities to bestir themselves and make the
air fit to breathe and the towns for, which
hey are responsible safe and comfortable
to live in.
