He is Tom L. Jolnson of Ohio, who repro- sents the Cleveland district and is a cham- pion of free trade and the single tax. Some three months ago Mr. Johnson addressed assemblage of democrats In New York and took occasion to frankly declare that the party was not faithful to the principles ot democracy or to Its pledges made in the last national campaign. Subbequently in the house of representatives, speaking on the tariff bill, he scored the party roundly for its want of honesty and courage in dealing with the tariff, and told some plain truths that were not palatable to some of his party colleagues. On last Monday evening Mr. Johnson made a speech at the banquet of the Iroquois club of Chicago, his subject being free trade. The Ohlo congressman declared that he Is a free trader becau at and he is a democrat becau: trader, thus Implying that and “free trader” are, In his view, correlative terms, and he sald that when the democratic party takes anything less than free trade for its touchstone and rallying cry it becomes dis- cordant and helpless and contemptible. By way ot illustrating this he pointed to the present condition of the party, describing it as “broken, discredited, foredoomed to defeat.” It has been brought to this con- dition, declared Mr. Johnson, the party, or the politicians and managers of the party, feared to say free trade and instead made tarift reform its watchword, There 18 meaning in the words “free trade,” he declared, which everybody can understand, whereas “tarift reform” may mean any- thing or nothing. As to what fssue the democratic party shall go before the coun- try on In the coming clections Mr. Johnson the orly hope is to raise openly and unequivocally the banner of free trade. “If the democratic party does not stand in op- position to the protective idea it stands for nothing," Ohio congressman’s decluration, “and it must be swept aside by party that does voice the democratic principle. It the democratic party is to live it must cast all protectionists out of its ranks. There is no room in it for a moder- ate protectionlst, or a local protectionist, or any other kind of a protectionist. Mas- querading as tari@f reform they can only bring the democratic party into contempt and defeat.”” And then with equal frankness Mr. Johnson said that free trade would lead the single tax. The greatest of all monopolics, he asserted, is the monopoly of land, aud free trade, carried its ngle tax, would abofish this fundamental monopoly and in doing so solve the labor question and abolish poverty. These utterances were heartily applauded by the members and guests of the Iroquols club, and so far as they relate to free trade be no question that they state the predominant sentiment in the democratie party, to the more eneral assertion of which there is simply needed more men in the party with the courage and candor of the Ohlo congressman. A large majority of the democrats in the house would have preferred & more radical measure than the Wilson bill, which they regarded only as a step in the direction of free trade, and Mr, ‘Voorhees declared in lis speech in the sen- an he is a democ: he Is a fre democrat” because sald to was the some as democrats to to logical conclusion, the there can THE the approval of a that body constitntes ate, unquestionably with majority I tarift though not a moerats bill final of perfee that the pending | one, toward | deliver long stride hing day of cou froc tern democracy, as | last platform, is trade Re Anpr weaning trad etein e dinl shown in its nat solut resentative Jolnson eaid, it i What ge to strike ont b goal of its desir rtunity and it radical a uld oven the party lack a and | give | far | Mr pro for the will go a der sweey away the alt should in order to raise of the need as even 8o free (r as wish in though tax on I Tohneon ¢ tection roatiy be o enie single rev for the support government the people come to conslder for eratic of repre sult In the desteuction cf | system.

Th which Mr. Olsen attempte to make that inasmuch as the eity contributes three. fourths of the revenuos that go o the county asury, it Is an injustice to city taxpayers to compel them to pay for county r which they can derive but little or no hene- fit, Against the narrowness of of the matter we protested at the time, in that the of the city advantages from every improvement | rating make to markets for which could well afford to their respective shares. This argument in Mr. Sackett's letter by the exact figures of the nty revenues derived from city and taxpayers and of the amounts expended within and without the city limits, The fact is also brought out that the expenditurc of county funds in improving ads will cause an ap- preciuble rise in the value of the lands sub- Ject to county taxation and thus tend to reduce the disproportion in the respective contributions of city county 0 county treasury. In discussing this question relation existing between the city and county must not be lost sight of. The progress of the county is equally the progress of the city, the city shares in it by inereased resources and increased trade. The mere fact that the improvement hap- pens to be without an artificial line called the city limits does not deprive the city of the benefits accruing from it. While the | onsoli fon of city and county governments is doubtless a thing of the not-very remote future, the be effected are chiefly in the line of administration. The necessity for the permanent improvement of the county roads will not be affected by it one way or the other. In this field both city and county will be called on to c erate for the common good. It is indeed fortunate under the existing cir that the taxpayers of the city can his matter through the county government.

The trial of the impeached Nebraska officials commenced before the supreme court just a year ago and the people of the state are very well satisfled that the trial was worth all It cost. ‘While it is true that the officlals in question were acquitted by a Scotch verdict, it is still true that the officials themselves have in the year that has elapsed since their trlal been indus- triously engaged in proving that they were grossly negligent during thelr first terms of office. No ome will pretend to deny that the state institutions of Nebraska have not been better managed than in the two years immediately preceding the fmpeach- ment proceedings. In spite of the heavy decrease in appropriations the state inst tutions have been fully as well, if not bet- ter, conducted. Contracts are more closely scrutinized and prices are more nearly in accordance with business methods.

Committee on Indian Affairs to Take un Extended Junket. WASHINGTON, April 5.—The senate com- mittee on the five civilized tribes of Indians {s preparing to start to Indian Territory for the purpose of investigating, among other subjects, the relations existing between the Iudians and the white settlers. This ques- tion has attained some prominence recently in_connection with the effort to have Indian Territory included as a part of the proposed state of Oklahoma. The Indians have resisted the propo: on, declaring that i they should accept statehood their tribal relations would be destroyed, they would be compelled to accept land in severalty, and would be so outnumbered by the whites as to cut them out of all voice in their affairs. They also assert that they hold their lands under treaty and are guaranteed self-govern- ment by the same proces: Under the ex- isting condition of affairs, while far out- numbering the Indian popuiation, the whites say they are deprived of all rights of eitizenship and cannot become owners of real estate, of which the Indians have more than they can utilize. There was a large delegation in Washing- ton during the winter in the interest of statehood and the Indians have also had representatives liere, but members of the committee complained that it was impos- sible to secure from those representatives an tdea of the status of affai The scope under which the committee Is to act is of very general nature, and it is probable that the inquiry will go into many other questions in_connection with life in Indtan Territory.

It had been originally intended to open the minar with three full classes, but this plan was changed and but onc class was taken the first year, two the second year and th the past year, £o that the seminary now has its full number of classes, and those gradu- ating on this occasion were the students who began their studies when the Institutic was founded. Applications had been re- ceived from a number whom the faculty found it impossible to receive, owing to the limited means at hand, but there-had been students during the year just course were comencement « wore Allen DD, LLD, the faculty, presided RADUATING ADDRESSES The subjects of the addresses of the gradu- ates were: “The Mystical Element in Ch tianity,” Ch . Bandy; “Thy King- om Come,” E. Allen Enders; *Preshyteri nism,” Alexander Litherland; “Revelation; the Today Preacher's Relation to It,” Hugh MeNineh tephen,” Bishop C. Swank; “Life,” Ernest W. Symonds All'of the addresses showed careful prep- aration, and those of Messes. Bandy and Lither%nd, which were delivered without notes, were especially well received Dr. Harsha delivered the address to the graduating class, He spoke feclingly of the relations that had existed between the mem- bers and the faculty during the three years they had been together, and, basing an opinion on what had thus far been secn of them, set forth what would be expected ot them. He stated that the spirit of conse- cration evidenced by the graduates, some of whom had expressed a willingness to enter the mission fleld, promised much for the success of their future work. The address contained much of advice the young men about to enter upon active work of the ministry. Rev. T. C. Smith, D.D.. of Clarinda, Ta. spoke briefly on behalf of the board of direc- { tors, setting forth the urgent need of addi- | tional funds for prosccuting the educational work that was to supply the pulpit with the energy and activity that young blood alono could bring, and hoped (hat some one with abundant means would feel moved fo donate $5,000 for the purpose of enlarging the pres- ent scope of the seminary work. The fleld to be supplied was a large one, this being the only institution of its kind between Chi cago and the coast, and the faculty was dally being subjected to demands that it could not meet in the way of accepting new students who desired to be cducated for the ministry. FOUNDED A SCHOLARSHIP, The class president oftered the resolutions | adopted by the class, thanking the faculty | for the consideration and careful attention accorded them, and announced the establish- of a low scholarship of $100 by the to be known as the “Class of ‘94" scholarship. It is to be paid in each year until the amount of $400 has been pald, and the recipient is to be designatad by the faculty. The recipient is to refund the money thus received at the rate of at least 20 per cent per year after graduation. The appli- catlon of the money is to be governed by the rules and regulations adopted by the board for the fund that is to be maintained by the board for the assistance of students. This new rule was provided for at the annual meeting, held last Wednesday, and is In- tended to make the recipienis more inde- pendent, as well as economical, while it also provides a circulating fund, that will be the means of continually assisting struggling students. After the exercises were concluded a sup- per was served In the church pariors by the ladies of the church, and a pleasant social hour was passed. Among the visitors from Rev. E. Payson Hammon, the children's cevangelist, who addressed the students at to the outside were: | Clark, WNING KING The largest makers and ellers ot tine clothes o the seminary yesterday afternoon regarding attention to the children and the younger members of the congregation, and who speaks to the children this afternoon at the Knox Presbyterian church; Rev.
