The delegate who had held high carnival with the Tin Horns attempted to del'end themselves, but their explanations wi re not sufficient, and, as the severest punishment possible under the -circuiuMauccs, resolutions were adopted censuring the delegates. Tlie preamble of the resolutions declared that it was due to the people of Indianapolis and in vindication ot the lodge that (he delegutes be censured. The -resolution then declared that: 11 In view of the fact that a certain uubllcation apwnrs in the Indianaoolia Journal, tion was cast npon cur honored institution.

Whereas, Inasmuch as the Knights so represented in said article as a delegation from our National Grand Body, we me moved to say in bitter term that we have been misren- resented iu such a liRlit. acd state that the parties were not delegated nor instructed to call upon raid-poiitkal organization to make, the improper remarks found in the article. Therefore be it Resolved. That uch parties as" named in tiie article, del'aming our t'uir name, he duly reprimanded by qur X. K.

Coniu amlcr for their imprudent way in calling upon a political club, not by our consent, and there discussed politics, the thing for which we did not meet here, to interfere with nor come to" give veut to our feelings politically, or in any wav or manner that would put us in an improper light before the-e good people of Indianapolis and the worid; and we deprecate and denounce all contained in the said article dated as coming from our National Grand amp, a such is agaiust our principles and constitution. The resolutions wereigned bv Win. Porter. National Knight Commander uud WV U. Williams, National Knight Recorder, i In speaking lof the trouble after 'this morning session closed several of the delegates stated that there would have been no quarrel if the delegates to the lodge had visited the club in uii individual capacity, and had not attempted to drag the order into politics.

They 'also said the lodge would still consent to visit the as a but with the strict understanding that politics was not to be mentioned. StANDAKH OIL GAS TKU-ST. Indianapolis the Only Lnrtro City Not i Dependent on tho Octopus. -i The natural gas trust, recently formed, is trying to gobble up all the gu lands in Indiana and Ohio. The trust is copiposed chiefly of the Standard Oil 'Oytopusiund its various local organization.

I The beginning of active operation by the hew trust ha been expedited by the fight ut Toledo. The people of Indianapolis have not forgotten how the Standard Oil and it allied interest here pointed to Toledo' natural gas rates and insisted that Indian apolis was idiotic to expect unything There were two companies at Toledo, nominally, but. they huve since both been found to be Standard interests. That city pay as much or more for ga a for coal, and to throw off the thraildoiu the legislative right to borrow money to get a supply of gas for the people at living rate has been obtained. To defeat this end the Standard has gone into the gas field leased laud in great quantities, hoping to shut the city-oil' from a supply that is not controlled by the Standard.

natural gas lands on hieh leases could have been secured a short time ago at 2 or $.1 an acre, acre had been paid by Standard rep-r -sentatives recently. Dr. ltaxter, of Lima, the owner of a large amount of territory i i the Lima neighborhood, and he is one of tc latest to sell out to the new combination'. In Indiana the ugent. of the Standard Trust have notfrecly show their hands, but to-day they ure here preparing for action.

Large numbers of lease huve been taken up in Madison and Hamilton County, but the Consumers Company of th'is city has taken the precaution to obtain such territory as it limy need, and the Standard Trust will not be able to obtain a monopoly. Indianapolis, be it remembered, is the only lurge city in the world which has preserved toils own ieople the ad vantages of natural gas at cheap rates, and the people, through the Trusty did it by. standing for once against the biggest corporation in America. The Standard Oil Company, its allied interests, controls the gas, the gas plant and the pas field everywhere (iu big towns) except iu Indianapolis, ami it ha not given up the expectation of finally removing this single exception. I It has been given but recently that the time is not distant when the standard will squeeze out the people' company iu Indi-anujMdis.

It well-known methodie buying or establishing newspapers, controlling Legislature and Councils have been cited in warning. Tho far the Consumers' Trut stand as a barrier. nniuan- fay in vacation. The former bnilitf of Judge Howe is now engaged in other business, and the new bailiff ill not U-gin hi duties until next not toakiHg any allowanol baLUT, but vfiiu-iniirr. rorinis reason ju uvf iiawe is he is iKliowing his.pate pay during vacation and wishes it to te understood that as he; draws pay bin.

They are liable, the same as the Judge, to be called! on at any time, and must hold themselves in readiness to attend court whenever any vacation business, which may come up at any time, is requested to be done. BEAUTIES OF PARTISAN POLITICS. Dicker Made by Which Mr. I'carson Is to Hare Utile Opposition.

Tn accordance with an nnderstamlingthnt has existed for several years, the Democrat will (a anticipated some davs ago) refrain from pushing candidates in strong Ilepublican wards, and the Kepublican will, of course, reciproeute. by showing no activity in strong Democratic ward. Certain Democrats in John XVamou'a ward have already agreed that they wfll not oiler any opposition to Mr. Pearson' dec-, tion. It is.

possible that they niay go through the form of nominating a candidate, but they have pledged thei word to, Mr. Pearson that no" etl'ort will be made to elect their candidate. As a return for this favor Sir. Peiirson ill see that some Democratic candidate is kept free from opposition. -Heretofore he and Mr.

Coy have traded favors, but here are reasons ta believe that the deal is made with Another Councilman this year. I The numbers of the Council who are anxious to be re-elected arc follow ing the plan Mr. Pearson has so loug found successful, and it is possible there will be contests in earnest in only three or four of the closest ward. I Dr. Edenharter, now a resident of the Seventh Wardt has been suggested ivs a candidate for Council by some of his Democratic friends.i The doctor-was asked if he was candidate.

He said he was out of politics and could not- accept a nomination if tendered. He hud so informed his friend. -The friends of Jerry C. Foley are earnestly pushing him the Democratic nominee for City Clerk. He will have the support of the telegraphers and railroad men.

I I Brave' Mri McVaymd Her Narrow r'a A Neirro Attempts to Stop at Hore by Pulllnic Heroically at His Tall. Washington street a the scene of two remarkable runaway accident to-day. Oue ludicrous, the other thrilling, but the results of- neither were especially disastrous. i Mr. W.

PvMcVay.of 179 Harrison street, has proved herself a brave aud cool-headed little woman. She' wa driving a spirited horse near the TransferCar this afternoon when the.animnt became frightened-and dashed east on Washington wirect atterritie Mrs. McYay held tightly to the line and by rare skill I and coot.H guided the flying horse through a labyrinth of streetcar aud lighter vehicles without collision. When Meridian street wa reached the horse turned sharply north and the carriage was thrown upon it side. Mrs.

McYv and a small bov with her thrown out, but neither was scriouslv l. lightly cjut and bruised, and the boy was nn hurt. 1 I Early this horse without a otherwise- fully harnessed to a double-xentcd carriage, dashed out of nn alley near Sccohd street hnd turned down Delaware at full speed. William Wright, a man ho works for George Bordmau, saw the and i bravely attetnptcil- to halt it. He succeeded in getting into the carriage, but once there lie-found that there were no line to sf-ize.

To hi mind there wa hut oue other thing to do. He took tail holt. Leaning over the dashboard he seized the living animal's caudal appendage and pulled back ith the desperation of despair. The-scene a the runaway rolled down the block pavement was ludicrous enough to put the whole street into laughter, but-there wasn't much fun in it to the valiant Willbih. "Twikt the tail," shouted; a man as the carriage, jolted over the track at Massachusetts aveniie.

William did twist, and lie redoubled his efforts to guide aud halt the horse from the rear end. Alt was vain. The beast continued down Delaware to Washington, turned west on Washington, and' finally, thoroughly wiiidcd'and doubtless weary of the tail twist, ciiuie to a stop in front of the New-York store.

STATE HOARD NOT I XAXIMOl'S. LnFollettoi Discuss- the New Text liiMk. 4 State Superintendent LaFollette desires to go down on record. 1 He wishe it to be distinctly understood that in the vote. of the State Hoard on the adoption of the Indiana School Book Pul-lishing Company's text books, he did not vote in favor of the reader or geographic.

Hej regards theiu a in every way inferior to the books which were taken for the stand-, ard -of comparison. They iure poor In the quality of paper and biliding'and em graving, and the reader are poorly clussi. fled, and contain lesson which are not what boy and girl should read in school. The arithmetic ami writing -1ooks he thinks equal to those now in use. Mr.

La Follette says he ha received several hundred letter, chiefly from Township Trustees, king whether-the law i mandatory or simply directory. The letters come from every part of the State, und all breathe hostility to the law. Tiiey ask what, the penalty is if the liiv is lie say there i no penalty provided for violating the law. lie docs not think this an oversight, but that the legislators desired to make a j-ipuhtr law by which counties that wanted cheaper book coul'. get them.bilt which allowed airy hieh desired 'to use the old book si.

i He' thinks a gn-jit ileal of ollicial pressure will be re-quiredr to get the new books "generally He doe not propose to'anuko his otiice unpopular by bringing a liott of mandatory, suit against county' boards pf education, and doe I not know vet j.what action he will take to enforce the law. Some Trustees have written a though they will infill their duty by ordering the legal books" aceordihg to the law and then just hold them to sell if any-" body calls for but mukc no effort to enforce their use in the schools. They write that teacher generally are opposed to the low. Supemitendent Flick, of this eounty, hit not yet filed hi udditioual bond, a required within thirty days after the Governor proclaimed that a contraet ha been made, but he will be prepared to do so iu a few days. Steps will then be taken toward procuring the new books in accordance with the law.
