INDIANA WORRIES REPUBLICANS.

And what of Indiana? Will she
join hands with New York, her old
side partner in 1876, 1884 and 1892,
or will she be content to wallow
longer in the mire of discredited
Republicrnismi Chairman Targ-
gart says, not only for publication,
but in private conversation with
his friends and associate commit
teemen, that the Hoosier State will
do for Parker what it did for
Tilden and Cleveland He has an
organization which is well-nigh
perfect. His reports are of the
most encouraging nature, and bas-
ing Judgment upon these and upon
his personal knowledge Of political
conditions, he does not hesitate to
predict Democratic triumph.
The Populists will cut small
figure in Indiana General Weaver,
who, as their Presidential candidate
in 1892, polled more than million
votes, is stumping Indiana for
Parker and Davis. With one or
two exceptions, all of the men
who worked for the nomination of
Hearst this year, are putting in
their best efforts for the entire
Democratic ticket William j.
Bryan is about to enter upon Il
"whirlwind" tour of the State,
making fromthirty to fifty speeches
in ten days. The Gold Democrats
are supporting Parker almost to a
man. There is no reason to sup
pose that the Republicans will poll
more than their straight party vote,
which has never yet been sufficient
to give them a victory, provided
the Democracy was united and en-
Finally, it may be
said that daily perusal of the In
dianapolis News, the one great
Independent newspaper of Indiana,
confirms the opinion that the Re-
publicans of the State, despite
their natural inclination to "claim
everything in sight" are having
the fight Of their lives. The News
is owned chiefly by Republicans,
and one of it's stockholders is
Senator Fairbanks. 1t gives full,
and, on the whole, fair reports of
Democratic meetings. 1t does not
to conceal the fact that the
Democrats are well organized and
under good leadership. Looking
over the field, with an apparent
lesire to maintain its reputation
FOR independence, without unnee-
,ssarily offending its Republican
stockholders, the News concludes
hat Indiana belongs in the

1t is safe to say that if anyone
should be rash enough to advise our
esteemed and brilliant contemporary.
the Daily States. to be satisfied with
a long howl, if someone intruded in
the States private business that the
States as paper, and its managers as
individuals, would proceed in their
reply to the verge of breaking the
peace; yet this is precisely the pre-
scription our friend has prepared for
the outraged sentiment of New Or
leans. 1t is not like Americans. and
warm blooded ones at that, to be con-
tent with loud remonstrapce if some
thing more forcibe is at hand We
judge of New Orleans conditions en-
tlrely from its eyponents, the papers.
We read them carefully, take all cir
cumstances into consideration, make
due allowances for self-interest or
party anger, and what is left in the
crucible is our judement on the situa.
tion.
The result in the present deplorable
muss is that Governor Blanchard acted
rashly and unwisely, that he forgot
the dignity of his office in his desire
to help friend or, perhaps, to show
his power, and in SO doing he com
himself to course of action
he cannot sustain in liberty loving
country, nor can his friends come to
his defense.
He was wrong for interfering in
that which did not concern him and
the wretched system of appointing
instead of electing officers is at the
bottom of the trouble, as improperly
placed power is always temptation
to act unwisely

THE ONLY HOPE OF THE RICE
FARMER.

paper published in Houston, Texas
treats in its September issue on th
present status of rice in a most in
teresting manner. In almost ever,
word of the article in question, w
coincide. The rice industry is no
only new, but it is peculiar one
1t has come into existence as ;
commercial crop within a very few
years, and It's great value as a food
stuff is not appreciated in the
Uuited States. Ninety-three pei
cent Of the rice producing acreage
of this country lies in Louisiana
and Texas.
We do not believe it can be ex-
tended much farther after the lands
within this area are taken up and
as consequence, while the market
demand for the edible becomes
greater each year as its worth be-
comes known, the price must begin
to enhance and after awhile, per-
hapS, to the farmers benefit. Rice
should run second as a fOOdStuff
to wheat and corn. The means
taken to advertise it in the rice
kitchens so-called of the worlds
fairs and expositions have, from
what we learn, hurt the grain more
than it has helped it. The money
appropriated has gone in salaries
for pets aud favOrites, and the
visitor turns away from the exhibit
with mingled feelings of amuse-
ment and disgust.
But the cereal really needs none
of this questionable advertising.
Its worth is becoming known and
a large market will every year be
opened. The rice mills have been
called on to carry an unfair share
of the burden. The canal com
panies, as rule, do not help the
farmer with his crop, and the bank
fights shy of him. Compelled then
to go to the mill, the farmer need
nor be surprised if the milIman
seeks to make ont Of his necessity

If the bonded warehouse scheme
which was attempted here some
eighteen months or two years ago,

organizing, could be revived with
responsible backing, SO that the
'armer could get money on ware
louse receipts and thus protect him
rom the market sharp, it wonld
lot only help the miller, but would

j. X. Freeman, of the Metropolitan
Water Board of Massachusetts, is the
authority for the statement that Bos
ton is sinking into the sea. He asserts
that the present datum plane to which
all elevations are referred by the en-
gineering department of the city of
Boston, and which is commonly known
as Boston base, probably coincided al
most exactly in the year 1889 with the
mean low water at the Charleston
navy yard. Today after lapse of
seventytwo years the same datum
plane, as defined by numerous bench
marks on solid ground, according to
the best available determination is
70 below mean low water. This
comparison shows that the land
now stands about O. 70 foot lower rel
atively to the sea than it did about
seventy two years ago and shows that
the land in Boston and vicinity is
sinking at the rate of about one foot
per hundred years. -Ex.
