Representative Matsou, the Demoratic candidate for Governor of Indioa, says lie will stamp the State in ompany with Representative Hovey, is Republican competitor, and that hey will have joint discussions. Representative Campbell has iotrouced a bill ia the Ilonee, providing n annual pension of $5,000 for Mrs. Iheridati. It seems a little queer to see a )emocrat in command of the army, ufc it's all right. -Democrats are air-ays competent to fill the highest fiices, and it is .only a question of inie when they will fill them all. By he way, a movement has been already tarted, to have CoDgress promote ! reueral Schofield to Lieutenant ieneral. At a caucus of Democratic Senators eld Wednesday, it was decided that o obstructive tactics would be used, o prevent the Republicans rejecting he fisheries treaty. The Senato committee on epidemic liseasos reported adversely Mr. Call's ill to pay for property destroyed in tamping out yellow fever. All the tioney necessary will, however, be urnished from an appropriation made y the last Congress, for the suppresion of epidemic diseases, and if tecessary another appropriation will e made. -The delay in Mr. Cleveland's letter f acceptance is having a terrible fleet on the Republicans. Another /eeh without it and some of them will e put into straight jackets*. Senator Reagan has introduced a ill to prevent the formation of trusts fc defines a trust to be "the combinalon of CH[>ital or skill by two or more ersous for the following purposes; 'irsi, to create or carry out restricous on trade; Secood, to limit, renee, or to increase the production or rices of merchandise or commodities; 'iiird, to prevent competition in the iauufacfure, making sales or pnriiase of merchandise or commodities; ourth, to create a monopoly. "John bornian thinks that Congress baa no )nstitntional power to pass such a ,w. If Sherman is right, the sooner le constitution is amended the bet- J >r, but I don't believe bo's right.
