In Resurrection Count Leo Toll
stoi's latest masterpiece, the reading
public of the entire world have been
stirred as never before by his tremen-
dous arguments and originality of
thought against the evils Of modern
society. In Tolstoi's apotheosis of the
soul and its relation to the Maker OF
all things lies the tremendous elo-
quence Of his appeal. HypOcritlcal
can't is eliminated, truth is put on a
pedestal, the infdel and the creedist
can here meet on common platform,
for Tolstoi's sermon works with equal
conviction for the material as we'll as
for the spiritual betterment of society.
The wrongrdoer may fear the retr-
butive justice of a wrathful God, but
God is merciful. Nature. however is
memorable and has no pity. In my
opinion Tolstoi exploits this truth as
it has rarely, if ever, been exploited
before, and therefore, in giving "Res-
direction" to the world he has let
loose moral force which must earn
for him the gratitude of modern civ.
ilization.

He Was q ProdieaI.

There is story Of more than usual
interest connected with the life OF
Geo. Miller, who died at the home of
Jonas Mullet, east OF this city, on Feb.
81, at the age of SO years. He belong

bis dissolute habits provoked his faith

money to come to America, to stay.
The son spent the money in grand
carousal. and then bis father bought
a ticket for him to New York, and
saw him on board the vessel. That
was more than a half century ago,
almost ever since that time Miller had
tramped back and forth over this
part of the country, supporting him.

The business element, which has
been gradually recovering its con-
fidence in the democratic party, has
had its faith badly shaken again, and
nothing the republicans could have
done would have been 50 harmful to
democratic prospects next year as the
defeat of the Aldrich bill. 1t was
not a partisan measure. 1t was pre-
pared after q conference among the
leaders of both parties, and was re-
ported to the senate with the unanim-
Gus Endorsement of the committee on
finance. Even Mr.. Teller himself CIV
ing it ms approval. because he
recognized as well as anyone that
something must be done sooner or
later to prevent the currency famine
that occurs every fall after harvest

the crops. But although the bill re-
ceived the indorsementof both parties
the republicans win haYe the credit
OF trying to secure the leglslation and
the democrats will be blamed for de-
feating It.

mingle but not intermarry. 1t was

BlaekmaiI in the Senate.

i Tuesday night, when all the appro-
priation bills had been passen but
two, and those werein hand, Senator
Tillman, who had some claims
amounting to $4,000 which the SEN
ate would not allow on their merits,
rose in his place and declared that
neither OF those bills could be passed
unless his claims were embraced in
one of them. On their merits he
could not hav, mustered dozen votes
for his claims. Tillman knew this be-
cause he had tried to have them al
owed. But the congress being with
IN a few hours of adjournment with
out day, Tillman placed himself be-
fore the senate like a highwayman
and demanded that his fraudulent
bills should be put where they will be
paid. 1t was a clear case of black
mail. 1t was threat that would
have forced an extra session of the
next congress to pass the bills which
he was holding up. II the senate had
refused Tillman would have occupied
the floor until the hour of adjourn
ment. And this is senatorial court
esy This is respect for the venerat-
ed tradition of the senate in favor of
freedom or debate!
The country is very weary OF this
tradition which permits senators like
TiIlman to become blackmailers and
to compel the senate to vote money to
pay claims which are fraudulent in the
Judgment of the senate. 1t is more
than weary, it is disguised or indig-
nant. A body of able men, it has be-
come the slave of custom which has
been so abused that finally ruffian
stands forth and holds the senate up!
There is but one thing for the sem
ate to 90, and that is to get rid of its
fantastic courtesy and adopt some
rules by which a vote can be taken on
a specified day and hour. 1t can no
longer appear before the country as a
helpless old man to be held up and
robbed. 1t needs and must have a
a radical reform in It's rules.-Indian-

The threatened strike on the Wa
bash railroad is the first serious trou-
BILE that has occurred during the most
remarkable period of wage increase in
the history of American railroads.
Never before have employees in all
branches of railway service been given
such material advances as have been
granted during the past twelve
months. Although the demand for
greater remuneration has been a con-
certed one by more than 100000
people, and although the demands
have ranged from 10 TO 40 per cent in
creaseS. arbitration has been the rule
heretofore, and both men and en-
ployers have done everything in their
power to avoid a clash.
1t is therefore keen disappointment
to both railroad officials and thinking
employees that the Wabash differences
have crystallized into a determination
to strike. During the present move
ment practically every railroad has
been forced to make material in
creases in the pay of all the branches
of labor. Careful estimates based up
on the total increases granted by
twenty-five Of the large railway syS-
TENS show that the totol increase
which the trainmen and enginemen
are getting from all railroads will
amount to at least $40, 600, 900. When
the wages 81 all other employees are
adjusted, as they are bound to be, on
the basis already fived by many roads,
the total increase in railway wages for
the entire country will be at least s40,-

A FAMOUS lNDIANlAN
One Of Many Inventions Brought World
Wide Fame.

Or. Richard Jordan Calling. who
died quite suddenly at the nome of
his daughter in New York last Thurs
day, was one of the men whose names
are famous in Indiana history
Although not native of the state,
having been born in North Carolina,
he came to Indianapolis when quite a
young man, where he attended medical
college and then began the practice
Of medicine, residing there until few
years ago. He was skilled practi-
tioner, but, the gOsSipS said, was in
c'ined to ''fritter away his time on
trifiing inventions. Among bis in
ventions were a machine for sowing
cotton seeds, another for thinning cot
ton plants. screw propeller for water
craft, a rice and wheat drill, a ma
chine for breaking hemp, and steam
pillow. But his greatest invention,
and the one with which his name is
inseparably connected, was the Cat
ling gun. At the beginning of the
civil war he conceived the idea of a
gun that should be at once destructive
and labor saving, The first gun was
made at indianapolis and tested in
the spring Of 1862. The test was Suc-
cessful. the gun firing 800 shots per
minute. The Washington authorities
were slow in appreciating it's merits,
however, and it was not adopted in
the military service until after the
close of the war. Meanwhile DR.. Cat
ling visited Europe, where the gun
created something Of a sensation. 1t
is now in use in nearly every army in
the world.

Southern Impudence.

One of the impudent sugges ions
made at the south relative to the ap-
pointment of colOred men to federal
Office is that IL the president is SO
anxious to favor the negro he should
give him high Office at the north.
There are no less than forty men,
bers of congress from southern states
who would visit Washington as pri-
vate citizens, If at all, If the four
tenth amendment to the constitution
Of the United States were enforced.
They now represent districts which
were apportioned On the theory that
the blacks were voters. They appear
in congress under false pretenSeS.
They represent only a handful of
whites who do all the voting and hold
all the offices. The districts from
which they come would have no ex.
istence il it were not for the wholly
theoretical vJte of the blacks.
1t may be that the colored race
ought not to have been enfranchised
and it is possible that most of its
members are wholly unfit for citizen
ship. AS to all this there is room for
argument. but there should be no
question about the injustice of forty
white men holding seats ia congress
as representatives of negroes who for
one reason and another do not exer-
else the rights of citizenship.
The suggestion that such blacks as
are named for federal Office should be
selected from the north, while the
south enjoys all the advantages of re-
presenting them in congress, is worthy
Of the time when the average south
erner was taught to believe that
northerners were mostly "mudsills. -
