bullion In the treasury and to recon
standard silver dollars as the public me-
cessities may require. The limit of sub
sidiary coin now is 500, OOO The bill
increases this to an indefinite amount in
the discretion of the Secretary of the

ton of the Democrats, who claimed it
was only step in the direction of the
complete striking down Of the silver dol

an amendment to make subsidiary silver
legal tender, and this amendment was
pending when the House adjourned.

How to Avoid :Washouts.

The benefits which are to be derived
from the judicious care of our wood
lands is shown by the fact that the
mat Of fallen leaves which covers the
ground in the forest abs,orbs the rain
as it falls, instead Of permitting it to
course down the hillsides, to join the
brook which helps to swell the river to
overfoWing. The wet surface Of the
leaves also operates as covering to
prevent evaporation while myriads Of
tiny rootlets take up the water as. it
slowly percolates through this cover
ing into the soil, from which it is raised
by a mysterious capillary force,
through the trunk and branches to the
leaves, where it is given off in the form
OF vapor through Transportation, to be
once more precipitated to the earth in
the shower of dew that waters the
growing crop.-Farm and Fireside.

Political News.

Maj. George ". Steele. of Marion. chair
man of the House committee OF manu-
features and member of the ways and
means committee, was in the city yester-
day to attend the State fair in his private
capacity of farmer. Friends of the major
remarked that he never looked better. his
face being bronzed by a summers outdoor
life upon his farms in Grant and Black
ford counties. The Eleventh district con-
gresham came down yesterday particu-
seemed more disposed TO talk of crops
than of politics., although he called at
Republican State headquarters, and pre-
dicted a great meeting at Marion on Sat-
urday, when the Republicans of Grant
county will open their campaign with Gen.
eral Grosvenor and Governor Durbin as
afternoon speakers and Frederick Lands
as the orator of the evening. The after
noon meeting will be held in the baseball
park, and the speaking will be preceded
by a concert given by the famous Soldiers
Home Band. Delegations are expected
from every town in the district, and with
fair weather the celebration will be a big
one. General Grosvenor will arrive at
Marion tomorrow, and be the guest Of
Major Steele over Sunday. They are warm
personal friends.
Major Steele would not discuss the with
drawal of General Henderson from the con-
gressional race, but expressed his disap-
pointment at the action of the speaker,
who is one of his good friends.

The Cut in Estimate Of Expenses

tai Increase in Firemen's Pay.
MEMBERS NOT UNANIMOUS
MIR. wYNNE AGAINST REDUCTIONS
FOR INCREASES IN SALARIES.
The Majority Acted Apparently With
out Special Observation-Disclosures
Meeting May BE Held.

Five members of the Council committee
on f~inance-three Republicans and w
Democrats-have agreed to sign a major
ity report to the Council recommending a
reduction in fourteen items of the city
budget, a~ggregating SIG, $50. This cutting
practically balances with the m in
crease in the amount of the fire force pay
roll necessitated by the passage of the or
dinance increasing the pay of firemen.
The increases amounted to s23,35O. 1t Is
probable that this report will be presented
without any important modification.
The committee met last night to consider
the city budget for 1903. All the members
were present. and two hours were spent in
discussing the items. Chairman Wynne
and Mr.. Rhodes were the opponents of the
reductions proposed, though on some minor
items they acquiesced. The other five
members acted together and seemed to I'M
derstand what they were doing. They were
Grail, Expert and Wysong, Republicans.
and Berry and Moriarity, Democrats. The
list of reductions which the majority
agreed to is as follows:

last night at Z o'clock caused a loss of
500 to stock besides causing a great
amount OF Inconvenience to the operators.
The twenty operators on the fourth floor
Of the building were busily engaged at the
time In sending night messages and press
reports. When smoke began to fill the up
per rooms the operators became uneasy.
The chief operator called up the night clerk
In the Office on the first floor and asked IL
the building was on fire. The response
came that 1t was not. A few seconds later
the clerk below was told to turn in an
alarm. as the building was surely on fire.
The second. third and fourth floors were
filled with smoke by this time. The clerk
ran to the corner and pulled Box As. The
heavy smoke from burning tobacco and
pine boxes almost suffocated the operators,
many OF whom deserted their keys and
started for the street. The chief operator
had his hands full in keeping the men at
work. After the fremen got into the sec
ond floor IL was seen at once tina the fire
was confined TO the back room OF Henry
Alters office. The room was filled with
boxes OF cigars. The fire originated In a
pile Of newspapers and excelsior In one
corner OF the room behind a pile OF boxes.
II had burned the boxes and eaten its way
into the walls before the fire department
arrived.
The racing OF the fire department into
Washington and Meridian streets proved a
treat for the many strangers who were
down town at that time. The hose wagons
had difficulty in getting of Washington
street. so dense did the crowd become. 1t
was estimated that 10000 people stood at

streets during the fire.

FAIRBANKS AT ANDERSON.
Charles H. Nen Says Big Preparations
Are Being Made.

Charles H. Neff, one of the publishers
of the Anderson Herald, was In Indian
apolis yesterday. Anderson will give Sem
ator Fairbanks a rousing big reception
Saturday night" he said. The senator
will open the campaign in Madison county
tomorrow night. Unfortunately the Re-
publican managers at Anderson were I'M
able to procure the opera house and the
meeting will be held at the courthouse.
1t is a t~ime-honored custom of the opera
house managers at Anderson to give per-
formances on Saturday afternoon and
night. The people have learned to look
for their regular Saturday night entertain
ment at the theater, hence the inability of
the Republicans to get the house for the
meeting tomorrow night. The courtroom
where the senator will speak is
Gus, however, and will accommodate a
large audience. Mr.. Neff says the Fair
banks meeting has been extensively adj
vertised over the county and a large turn
out Of people is expected. 1t Is possible
that Governor Durbin may preside at the
meeting, Mr.. Neff says. Two years ago
Governor Durbin and Senator Fairbanks
closed the campaign at Anderson and 1t
was suggested then that they open the
campaign in that city two years hence.
Speaking of the preparations to receive
President Roosevelt at Anderson, Neff says
there is talk of closing the factories while
the President is there and of giving the
school children a brief holiday so thai may
see the President.

COMMITTEE OF TENS WORK.
Earnest Efforts to Raise Money for

the Institute.
The committee of ten business men which
has assured the canvassers for the techni-
cal institute fund that 1t will undertake to
raise 10000 toward the purchase of the
Arsenal grounds is perfecting its plans of
work and may issue an appeal to the public
next Monday. All suggestions and contri-
buttons to the fund, through the commit
tee, should be sent to Postoffice Box 473.
The committee is anxious that people
should understand the Importance of small
contributions In the task in hand. If many
small subscriptions are not received the
whole project is likely to fail.
DR.. 5. c.. Dfckey has returned from
Winona Lake and is again active In the
task of securing contributions to the fund.
DIR. Dickey is convinced that there Is an op-
p%ortunity in this city for a big technical
school of the kind that is proposed, and he
believes that there are hundreds of young
men In Indianapolis that are anxious to en-
ter a school where they might be taught a
trade and at the same time be given an OPP
p~ortunity to earn enough to assist largely
In paying their expenses while In school:
The success of the Winona Agricultural
and Technical Institute has proved that.
DR.. Dickey says. His work in canvassing
has been interrupted by the rush of State
fair visitors, but Ii will go on from this
time with added vigor.
More h $1,000 was subscribed yester-
day toward the purchase of the arsenal
grounds. J. H. Eajen signed his name to
a subscription blank thai calls for 81, 600;
A. Birdsall increased his subscription from
$1,000 to $1,000; the Vonnegut Hardware
Company gave $3.50; A. Stubbins, 800; Peo-
pies Quitting Company. 800; Saks e.
Co., 500, and numerous small subscriptions
of SIS and less were received. The news
from Washington that the time for Sc
tended has had the effect of rebuilding
the confidence of the canvassers.

GRANT COUNTY REPUBLICANS.
DIR. G.. ID. kfmball, of Marion, q Friend
of G. A. H. shfdeIer.

Among the Republican politicians in town
yesterday was DIR. G. d. Kimball, of Ma
rion, one of the candidates for representa-
tive from Grant county. Incidentally he
gave George A. III. Shideler a boost for the
nomination for Governor in two years. II
think Grant county will give the biggest
Republican majority of any county In the
State" said DR.. Kimball. 1.-The majority
of men that work in the factories in our
county are either Republicans or Socialists.
There are few Democrats among them.
The Socialists will probably not nominate
a county ticket this year, and this class of
voters will mostly vote the Republican
ticket, 1 think"
In 1894 DR.. Kimball lived at Memphis,
Tenn, and was a candidate for state repre-
sentative from Shelby county, Tennessee.
He was on the ticket with II. Clay Evans,
who was a candidate for Governor. At
that time the county was 1900 Democratic,
but that year the Democratic majority vas
reduced to 1900.
"Our people In Grant county," said DR..
Kimball, would like to be represented on
the state ticket two years from now, and
we would rather like to be at the head of
the ticket. We give a big Republican ma
jority and feel that we should be some
where near the top Of the ticket. We have
waited patiently and think our reward
ought to be IN sight. We do not know how
Mr.. Shideler will feel about ii, but IL Grant
county has her way he will be the next
nominee for Governor"
