THE LOGICAL AFTERTHoUGHT.

The members Of the Democratic conven-
ton have done their work and hurried
home Perhaps it would be nearer the
truth 10 say that the managers had hur-
ried them through the work and sent them
home. 1t is evident in the proceedings that
the managers were fearful lest some un-
bridled tongue in the head of a Democrat
shout the name Of the peerless leader"
and start a Bryan confiagration 1t was
that fear which led them to push the nomi-
nations and the rest of the business TO ad-
journment. But because the members of
the convention have gone home and Bryan
ism has been suppressed as a contagious
disease the leaders should not assume that
the people who think. those who are silver
ties as well as those who are not, will cease
10 wonder why IL is that 16 to l was the only
hope of the country in 1896 while now it is
an evil so fraught with danger that it must
be muzzlcd.
A few days ago one Of those who have
been through this change explained that
the production of gold since 1896 has made
free coinage Of silver at the present time
unnecessary. The reply to this explanation
is that the output of gold had been increas-
ing so rapidly during the five or six years
prior to 1896 that the present abundant sup
ply was assured. But for the South Afri-
can war the worlds stock OF gold would
have been easily s15O,OOO,OOO more than it
now is. Such being the case, this plea of
ignorance concerning the discovery of
gold is simply confession of an ignorance
which units men for party leadership.
The increased output of gold is not the
real reason for the strangling of the 16-to-1
sentiment. The Democracy has fought two
campaigns on the silver issue, the last be-
ing more disastrous than the first. The
real reason is. and many Democrats have,
like the editor of the Sentinel, in interviews
declared that the Democracy cannot hope
to win with free coinage of silver as an
issue. In 1896 majority of the Democratic
silver coinage believed that the party could
win upon that issue; indeed it may be said
that at the outset they were certain they
could win, so they shouted 16 to regardless
of consequences. Most Of them believed
they could win in 1898, but they did not.
In 1900 the defeat OF silver's champion was
so emphatic that every leader now sees
that to adhere to silver means repeated
disaster; so they abandon silver and muzzle
the real dupes of the heresy. But if there
were a prospect that Indiana could be car
ried on the silver heresy Tomlinson Hall
would have resounded with the same shouts
of is to 1 that made it the center of the
silver craze in 1896. Does any one doubt
that this would be the case, regardless of
the effect upon the country? No one can.
This being admitted, is party with such
reckless leaders entitled to the support of
intelligent men?

is the State Prison at Michigan City. Such
are the facts, and the facts show the ef
frontery of those platform makers who
have credit for the nonpartisan policy now
in force.
Equally reckless is the falsehood that the
States institutions have been prostituted
TO partisan ends" by the present admins
tration. The makeup of. all the boards
Of control is in strict accordance with the
requirements of the law. In all the insti-
tutions the heads are required to select
subordinates upon the basis of fitness re-
CARELESS Of political considerations. OF
the four hospitals for insane the Democrats
whom the Republicans found in three Of
them remain, and the fourth was removed
for positive unftness. The superintendent
of the institution for the feeble-minded
continues under the direction of a Demo
crat. The Democrats were continued be-
cause they were competent men, and be-
cause, in the management Of their insti-
tutions, ascertained fitness has been the
key to employment. There is no politics in
any DOard or In the nlllng or any places
All contracts for supplies are given to
the lowest responsible bidders. Not only
is every institution but one managed upon
nonpartsan basis, but all Of them are
conducted on business principles. There are
no soft places for incompetents; efficiency
is the watchword. Trustees or directors are
no longer selected because they are party
mendicants, but because in the worlds af-
fairs they have shown more than average
ability.
The only significant phase OF this brazen
falsehood is that at last the Democratic
platform-makers have discovered that the
people of Indiana are heartily in favor of
the Republican policy of nonpartisanship
and straightforward business methods in
the management Of the States institutions,
and would like TO avail themselves of the
credit for both. 1t is encouraging that they
have learned so much, but they insult
the intelligence of the people of Indiana
when they imagine that they will believe in
their stupid and reckless lies to the effect
chat the Democratic party gave Indiana
| honpartisan laws for the control of its
charitable. correctional and penal institu-
| tons.

MAKES AN INVESTIGATION.
superintendent Jones spent the Day
Marion.

Frank L. Jones. state superintendent Of
public instruction, returned last night from
Marion, where he went TO investigate state
ments to the effect that at the recent
county teachers examination held in Ma
rion applicants for teachers licenses had
in some way been put in possession of the
list Of questions before the time OF exami-
nation. Joseph Hall. Of Delphi. a graduate
of the Indiana Medical College. was sus-
pected Of selling lists OF questions to APP
plicants. and he was examined by Mr.
Jones yesterday afternoon.
The state superintendent says that while
Hall admits selling the questions to april
cants for licenses, he stubbornly refuses 10
tell where he procured the lists. which are,
until they are given TO applicants in ezami-
nation. Mr.. Jones found that from twenty
TO twenty-five applicants had seen the
questions before the examination was held.
Among them was Miss Chambers, of How
ard county, a student Of the Marion Nor
NAL School At the examination Miss
Chambers turned In her papers 10 the eX-
aminer early and conided TO Burr Sher-
ron OF Pleasant township that her con-
science troubled her because she had
known what the questions were 10 be.
Others were as well informed as Miss
Chambers.
After Hall had been questioned he was
locked IN. in default OF $500 bond. Where
the questions were obtained Is a puzzle 10
Superintendent Jones. Although he has
not made uD HIS mind fully. he may de-
eide to throw out the examination entirely
as the result OF yesterdays developments.

The fact that the meat packers in Chi
cago have settled with the teamsters by
yielding TO some of their demands leads to
inquiry why they could not have made this
offer before three days of rioting as well as
after IT, The representatives of this most
highly organized combination in the coun-
try-a combination embracing the essential
features OF a trust-told the teamsters on
Saturday that to consent to their de-
mands in respect 10 the union would be TO
give up the direction OF their affairs. which
they would not do. They made their deci-
sion an ultimatum. Then the trouble began
and Chicago was the scene Of riot for three
days. In those three days the lawless ele-
ment IN Chicago. which Is larger and con-
tains more desperate elements than in any
other city in the country. has learned its
strength. That element will not remember
that il was held In check By courageous
police. but that it's violence led to com
promise which the lawless will interpret as
a fear OF its power. which 1t will exercise
