In the British house of commons a year
ago, we Americans, Phariseelike, thank­
ed goodness that such a scene could not
occur in a legislative body in the United
States. Well, it has occurred, and
worse.
The Indiana legislature is Republic­
an. Governor Matthews is a Democrat,
and he wanted one of his officers to
hold over after the assembly adjourn­
ed. The Republicans passed a bill legis­
lating the Democratic appointee out of
office. The governor would not veto it
promptly, because then the legislature
conld pass it over his head. His soheme
was to hold back the veto till just at the
moment of adjournment and then send
it in when the hour of 12 o’clock would
arrive before the bill could be passed.
At the last moment he sent his secre­
tary to the house. The Republicans
formed a mob around him to keep him
back. Democrats fought to open a way
for him. There resulted one of the
bloodiest and most disgraceful scenes
ever witnessed in a legislative body.
Revolvers were drawn freely; fists, feet
and nails were used. The representative
from Parke county received a kick in
the pit of his stomach and fell with a
sickening thud. Men have fought for
their homes, their country and their
liberty, aud the blood they shed was
sacred. But here was a principle at
stake greater than either home, country
or liberty. It was an immortal princi­
ple, a stupendous, universal principle
on which the fate of ages to come de­
pended. It was whether a small polit­
ical office should be filled by a member

J. J. Hill, the Great Northeru railroad
president and well kuowu ns an able
financier, has returned from a visit in
Europe, and in an interview iu regard to
the growth of bimetallism in Europe
said:
“English manufacturers aud landlords
owning agricultural lauds are taking a
very active interest in bimetallism aud
the greater use of silver. They are real­
izing fully that Argentine, Australia, the
East Indies, China and Japan, who are
on a silver basis, forcing their labor to
accept in payweut silver which they buy
for abofft 55 per cent of the value ot gold,
have a margin on the labor alone which
enables them to undersell the English
farmer or manufacturer in markets which
Eugland has heretofore ooutrolled.
“England is either compelled to give
up a large amount of the world’s trade,
which she has heretofore controlled, or
increase the use of silver in the world to
such an extent that it will not be possible
for her manufacturers to take advantage
of the lower cost of their labor, growing
out of the difference of gold and silver.
If the silver men in the United States
will only let cougress alone, and leave the
matter to be worked out by the commer­
cial profit aud loss account of Great
Britain, the latter nation will be com­
pelled to join with Germany, France aud
our country iu bringing about a condi­
tion of things that will enable the Eng­
lish people to meet the competition of
other nations 011 something like an equal
footing.”

The interest of labor in the commercial
prosperity of this country is emphasized
by the figures which 6how the amouut
paid to wage workers over the country
every hour, aud we arc able to realize
what a commercial depression that throws
so ninny of these wage earners out of
employment menus to the prosperity of
the whole people. Governor McKinley
of Ohio iu nu address before the National
Association of • Manufactures at Cincin­
nati recently said among other things:
“Do you know the amouut of wages
paid to the labor of this country iu 1890
(the last ceusus year)?’’ said Mr. McKin­
ley. “The stupendous sum of $1,221,170,-
454, or $3,914,000 to each working day, or
$391,500 for each workiug hour of every
working day iu that bnsy year. As show­
ing the advance of our manufactures, we
had exactly 950,000 more persons em­
ployed iu the year 1890 thau iu 1880, and
more iu 1892 than iu either period, aud
the aggregate of wages of 1892 was more
than double the amount paid in 1880.
No people of auy other country ever had
so lurge a share in so great a product as
the working people of the United State«
then enjoyed. The value of the product
of our manufactures in 1890 was more
than 100 per ceut greater than those of
1880. When the manufacturers in 1890
were prosperous the wage earners were
equally prosperous; agriculture wus prof­
itable; railroads were actively employed
and merchants were doing a satisfactory
business. Why, in 1891, the amount of
the deposits iu t he savings banks of the
country was $1,623,079,649, aud it is esti­
mated that ninety per cent of these de­
posits were the earnings of our wage earn­
ers received from our home manufactur­
ers.”
Now it can do so no longer. The legis­
lative aot recently passed on the sub­
jects prohibits the flying of any flag ex­
cept that of the United States over
public bnildings.
The fate of Wilbur W. Perry ought
to be a warning to all men who desire
to be members of a state legislature.
Perry is said to have been the most
promising student Yale lias graduated
in 25 years. All the world was before
him. But in an evil hour he permitted
himself to be elected a member of the
general assembly of Connecticut While
a member of that body he acquired the
taste for whisky and thence dates his
downfall. From a member of the legis­
lature he become a common drunkard,
and in the cold weather this winter
perished miserably. During a wild de­
bauch he wandered one night into a
vacant lot and was found there next
morning with hands and feet frozen
