SINCERE AND FINAL EXPRESSION
An Open Letter to lion. John K. GoW('|
a . Given Out by the ex-President j
w at Indianapolis Late
Last Night.
' Indianapolis, Feb. 4. —Capt John K. j
Gowdy, chairman of the republican
stato central committee, called last i
night by invitation at the residenee of
Gen. Harrison, when the ex-president :
handed him the following letter ad- '
dressed to the Hon. John Iv. Gowdy:
"In view of the resolutions passed by
the state general committee at its
recent meeting and of the fact that
delegates to the national republican (
convention are soon to be chosen in
this state, I have concluded that some
statement from me as to my wishes ,
and purposes should now be made to •
my Indiana friends. Hitherto, I have
declined to speak to the public upon '
this matter, but scores of friends to ;
whom I have talked and many scores ;
more to whom I have written will recog
nize in this expression the substance
of what 1 have said to them. To every j
one who has proposed to promote my j
nomination I have said 'No; there !
never has been an hour since I left the |
White House that I have felt a |
wish to return to it.' My Indiana I
friends have been most devoted and
faithful, and I am their grateful debt
or. The republican party has twice in
national convention given mo endorse
ment, and that is enough. I think the
voters of our party are now entitled to
have a new name. For the sentiment, j
great or small, that has been manifest- 1
ed for my nomination I am grateful, j
and of that wider respect and kind
ness—breaking party lines —which |
have been shown me in many ways, I
am profoundly appreciative. I cannot
consent that my name be presented or j
used in the St. Louis convention, and
must kindly ask my friends to accept '
this as a sincere and final expression
upon the subject.
"BENJAMIN HARRISON."

THE WALSENBERG RIOT&
Text of the McsHAife by the rresldml
Urging Aid.
Washington, Feb. 4.—The message
sent to congress yesterday afternoon
by the president requesting an appro
priation for some of the Italian victims
of the Walsenberg riots in Colorado
was as follows: "In my last annual
message allusion was made to the law
less killing of certain Italian laborer*
in the state of Colorado and it was
added that 'the dependent families ol
some of the unfortunate victims, in
vite, by their deplorable condition,
gracious provision for their needs.' It
now appears that in addition to three
of these laborers who were riotously
killed, two others who escaped death
by flight incurred pitiable disabilitieB
through exposure and privation. With
out discussing the question of the li
ability of the United States for thesq
results either by reason of treaty obli
gations or under the general rules of
international law, I venture to urge
upon congress the propriety of
makiug from the public treasury
prompt and reasonable pecuniary pro
vision for those injured and for the
families of those who were killed. To
aid in the consideration of the subject
I append hereto the report of the sec
retary of state, accompanied by certain
correspondence which fully represents
the features of several cases."

NOTES AND COMMENT.
(Continued from Page 1.)
word can bo said. Mr. Smith is un
questionably ,as honest and ablo as there
are in the town, but it has become a
recognized fact that men in business in
this particular section must necessarily,
in the course of trade, become obligated
to persons, and the influences that these
conditions bring to bear upon one pre
vent a school director in business at
times from exorcising his judgment as
freely as if thero wero no restraints
upon him.
Another interesting contest in the
North ward is the councilmanic race.
Albert Geoppert, who is on the Demo
cratic ticket, is conceded to have the
inside track and it is not improbable
that he will keep it until the votes are
counted, notwithstanding that the
majority of the voters in the ward do
not agree with him politically. Politics,
however, count for little with the Free
land council, and the citizens know it.
They generally select the candidate
whom they consider will protect their
interests, and vote for him regardless of
.his party alliliations. Under these cir
cumstances Mr. Goeppert has every
reason to feel confident. If elected, he
will not be a new man on the council, as
lie served there throe years, from 1880
to 1892, and his previous experience
qualifies him to step into the work with
out waiting a year or two to become
familiar witli the duties. In connection
witli this, it is not out of placo to state
that when a member before Mr. Goep
pert was one of tlio.so to whom the town
is under a lasting obligation for giving
the people an excellent system of free
sewerage. Ho was one of the most
earnest and constant advocates of this
necessity, and had the pleasure of seeing
the work begun beforo his term expired.
But not in that alone was the spirit of
tiie man shown. On every question of
improvement that camo before the coun
cil Mr. Goeppert was always found on
the side that favored progress, and at
the end of his three years work he left
with a clear record for faithful services.
His opponent may be equally as good,
perhaps, better, but the voters in 1890
thought it wise to keep him off the
council, and, again, last year, ho met
with another rebuff when he aspired to
that position. What the verdict will bo
in 1896 remains to be learned.
In the South ward the result of the
election Is already a foregone conclusion.
James F. Sweeney, the candidate for
school director, is so well known to the
voters that no active campaign is neces
sary. The value of such a progressive
young man on the board cannot be esti
mated. He is possessed of a keen fore
sight, believes in advancing education
to its utmost limits and can bo depended
upon to take an active interest in school
matters. With Mr. Sweeney on the
board there will be no intimations of
jobbery or crookedness in proposed con
tracts. His colleagues on the ticket, the
candidates for councilman, Patrick
Meehan and John Shigo, are also known
so well and have already won the respect
of their acquaintances that little need
be said of them. Both are large owners
of property, not the kind who get into
their shells and never appear unless it
be to frown upon contemplated improve
ments, but men who tako pride in tho
town they helped to make and who are
desirous to see it go higher. It is such
men who are needed on tho Freeland
council for the next few years, and the
voters of tho South ward will show that
they know their business by electing
them with majorities such as the party is
capable of giving there.
Judge Bennett has handed down a deci
sion in the case of M. J. Thomas vs. the
county commissioners, which has an im
portant bearing on tho terms of ofticc
of candidates for councilmen. Morris J.
Thomas, the plaintiff, was nominated
by the Republican caucus of Warrior
Hun borough as a candidate for council
for a period of three years. The county
commissioners contend that it was not
within the power of tho caucus to deter
mine tho length of the term of tho
plaintiff for tho office and refused to
print the ticket of the borough with tho
plaintiff's name upon it for tho term of
throe years, contending that under tho
provisions of tho act tho term for which
the candidate should be voted must be
designated by each voter upon the
ticket of tho voter. The case stated
asks that if the court shall bo of tho
opinion that the plaintiff is entitled to
have his name printed upon the ticket
with the term of three years attached
to it, then judgment to bo entered In
favor of the plaintiff, otherwise judg
ment to bo entered in favor of
the defendant. Judge Bennett made
the follow order: The court being
of the opinion that tho plaintiff is not
entitled to have his name printed upon
tho ticket for tho borough of Warrior
Run with tho term of three years attach
ed to it, judgment in accordance with
the terms of tho case stated is directed
■to bo entered in favor of tho defendants.
