4 REPUBLICAN VICTORY.

The returns indicate the election of the
Republican ticket by a plurality of about
] 2OO and a majority of the City Council. 1t
marks the end Of the Taggart regime in In
dianapolis and the SCATTERING of the power
which has held this city i'm its grip for six
years. If the result is as sweeping it
now appears the Republicans are in a posi-
ton To keep the pledges they made. From
a political point Of view the victory OF yes
terday places the Republican party in Ma
rion county on a firm basis, and If the new
ly-elected officers meet the expectations of
the rank and file of the party the county
will be as reliably Republican as Hamilton,
Howard or Wayne. The result also goes a
long way to determine the political COM
pleXion OF the next House of Representa-
tives in this State and 10 insure a Repub-
Hcan success in Indiana in November, 1892.
But the victory, TO have such permanent
influence, must be used wisely and judci-
ously. Just now il is cause for sincere
congratulation on the part Of those who
have realized the vicious trend Of municipal
affairs during the past six years.

The Presidents Appointments.

Washington Special in Philadelphia Press
a Philadelphia paper the other day
quoted the President as saying to Senator
Burton OF Kansas. that he Ohe PRESIDENT
should follow the custom OF his predeces-
sors and permit the senators OF his party
10 control the patronage in their respective
States. As has already been stated in the
Press. when the Presidents attention wa3
called TO that declaration he said that he
had never said anything OF the kind. The
fake quotation was made 10 apply TO the
appointment OF y. II. Tracy, Of Kansas.
a . the United States district attorney for
that State Senator Burton had been urg-
ing this appointment on the President per-
sistently for some days. and the Philadel-
phia paper made IL appear that Tracys
appointment was certain, because OF this
alleged declaration OF the President In
favor of allowing senators 10 control pat
TOnage
The amusing sequel To the fake declara-
ton of the President il the fact that it
was announced to-day that Mr.. Tracy
would not be appointed, but that J. $.
Dean. OF Marion, Kan, has been selected
for the place by the President. Tracy was
result Burton had TO withdraw the name.
The only interesting feature OF this matter
is the demonstration that IL gives that the
President will appoint only fit men. and
that the recommendation or Republican
senators will not suffice To secure the ap-
pointment by the President OF any one
whom he regards as not the proper person
what the Press stated at the time and IS
i'm harmony with Mr. Roosevelts record in
the matter of appointments when he W2s

In the October number of the New Eng

John Harvard and an account of the early
years of the college. The writer says: ION
Sept. "A. 1888. there died of consumption in
Charlestown John Harvard a young minis
ter, lately come TO the colony, and when
his will was read II was found that ii had
pleased God to stir up his heart to give
the one-halfe of his estate Git being in all

made her will, bequeathing to her eldest
son, John Harvard clerke." certain tene-
ments: year later his brother Thomas

before he was thirty years old. all the
wealth or the family, and this wealth had
Deen increased by an unusual chance. For
his mother married three times-first Rob
ert Harvard, then ElletsOn, a cooper. and
nnally 1earwood. a grOcer-and having sur
Vived her three husbands she was able TO
bequeath their savings besides the pro-
ceedS OF the inn which she herself man
aged, to her two sons. Moreover as
Thomas died first. his brother John fell
heir to that share also. Thus an innkeeper,
a butcher, a cooper. a grocer and cloth
maker furnished the funds which deter
mined the name of Harvard College and
gave the first impetus TO its growth.

of the city treasury and had gone among
venal voters and bought them up at s.
each. The thin veneering of a business
transaction does not change the essential
character of the act.
Even worse than this, if possible, was
the wholesale release of Police Court con-
victs on condition that they vote the Demo-
cratic ticket. 1t is the first time in the his
tory of the city that any party has resorted
10 a general jail delivery to secure voters.
Paupers have been voted. and that is bad
enough. but never before have convicts
been released on the order OF the judge
before whom they were convicted with
the understanding that they should vote for
the party to which the judge belonged.
The proceedings developed a case of like
master like man. for in the case of one
of the prisoners released Judge DAILY says
he issued no order in that case and that
his name must have been forged. Some
person I'm the city clerks office probably
concluded that the judge had overlooked
this case, or he may have thought TO earn
a promotion under the Iaggaft regime DS
doing a little Jail delivery business on his
own account. Whatever his motive, his
action was no more scandalous than that
of the judge. Both of these proceedings IL
