EDGEWORTH, Aoent, IWD OAIIY" JOURNAL, Pnblislii'd overy (liiy in the wpek (except Mondw by the LOUANSI-OKT JOURNAL Co. Price pep Annum Price per Month 60 TIIK OFFICIAL PAI-KU OK TUB CITY. iniittw tlio I.OKan.i- port Post Ollioo, jBbriiiiry 8, SATURDAY MORNING, MARCH 24. ME FINANCE TOMMITTEE TO REPORT. The Phnrrs reports that there Is something rayBterloua about tho 10- port submitted by the Clork for tho past nine months.

The Journal is inclined to think BO too. The Pharos accuses Dr. Powell ot demanding auoh a report while Dr. Powell saye that ho has no objection to such a repoit but thnt he mado no demand for it. However, there la no harm done and the Finance Committee Is busily at work compiling a report for the public.

Chairman Dolan states that the committee was at work last evening from 7 o'clock until 10 and that it will uompk'tu its report tonipht. Thoro was no suppression on tho part of the Journal and none en the part of the Finance Committee. Chnirraan Dolan called at tho Journal ollico for tho Clerk's report and obtained it. Ho stated that tho committee desired to report in full and it had that rijrht. Tho Journul will publish tho report in full and is (flad that Councilman Dolan is puahinp the matter.

The people have a right to know all tho facts in detail and the Finance Committee seems anxious that they should. By reason of the Pharos misrepresentation the facts are not known to some of the taxpayers. Tho Pharos will bo compelled to publish the report of tho Finance Committee uud ita readers will know tho facts. This is the purpose of the Finance Committee in making a detail report and that ia what tho people want. They want to know the truth.

THE Indianapolis Journal BBJS that it is tho habit of those who are in favor of under-value money to declare that the opposition to measures which are calculated to put the country on a silver basis IB confined to Wall street bankers. Aa a matter of fact, more than nine-tenths of tho business men In the country are opposed to trying any experiments with a sound currency. The protests against tho seigniorage bill have come Irom boards of trade and chambers of com- raerco In all parts of tho country, and none are more insistent than those from Southern cities. A CENSUS bulletin just issued shows that there are 205 establishments fa the United States for making corsets, wlthacapUal of $6,640,056. They employ 11,370 persons and pay them $4,062,816 in wages.

value of tho corsets manufactured in this country in 1890 was $12,401,575. The crop of false teeth were worth over $10,000,000 that year, and the output of fireworks $592,542. There Is no connection between corsets, false teeth and fireworks but oorseta.and false teeth might make ft man see stars. THE Journal is in favor of an economical management of city affairs, If the Republican party is put in control tho Journal will guarantee such a management. If tho people will put five republicans in the council and elect a republican Mayor to decloe all conteststhoro will be DO eomp aint.

The Journal will not be compelled, aa the Pharos is, to criticise its own council. THE Pharos jays that Councilman Boyer is a hypnotist. This is too bad. As Councilman Boyer serves two years yet it would be dangerous to return Mayor Read who holds the balance of power. The people had better try a new man who can not be hypnotized since the Pharos charges that Mayor Read is an easy victim.

THE second engineers' report on the Davis bridge is signed by engineers Beck and Dodd. This report was published in the Pharos thus signed. Now tho Pharos omite Beck's name and blames Dodd for the report. Ii it any wonder that the people do not believe any statement the Pharos makes? A REI-UBLICAN council will man. age affairs next year.

Even tho Pharos condemns the democratic administration of Mayor Read. the Pharos has not yet accused Boyer ot building the Davis bridge but it is only a question of time.

Snow is sometimes found in polar and Alpine regions, where it lies un- mclted from year to year, and tho annual fall is small, colored red by the presence of innumerable small red plants. In its native stato tho plant consists of brilliant red globules on a gelatinous mass. Red snow was observed by the ancients, a passage in Aristotle referring- to it, but it attracted little or no attention until 18CO, when Sanssure observed it in tho Alps-and concluded that it was due to the pollen of a plant. It was also noticed by the Arctic expedition under Ciipt. on.

Cftnllnul I.odoclimThhl, tho J'nmons fix'l of tin) Tho rumor, said to have originated In Herman circles in Rome, that Cardinal LedocliowsUi, prefect of the propa- pn.nda, is about to resign is naturally attracting much attention. There some signiiiuanco in the fact that thu rumor lias a German oriprin.

The cardinal, who is a man of extraordinary ability and force of character, was an intimate friend of the late Empress Augusta of Germany, but subsequently events occurred which led him to change his attitude toward the German government and to become one of its most bitter enemies, lie incurred the Highest of all in Leavening Power.

It was the' subject of wide comment, nnd M. do Jilowib! made it the basis of a lengthy nml somewhat sensational dispatch to the London Times, liis- marck regarded the cardinal as his personal enemy. I'pon tho chancellor's retirement to private life the German government paid court to thu cardinal to get him to accept, the policy of the emperor and to have him as an ally nenr the pope, but ho has been unap- peasaWt' the wish may therefore b.uve father to the suggestion of his Gorman enemies in Itoine that he is about to give up his important position. The cardinal is now seventy-one years old, however, and there is possibly some truth in the statement that his health will not permit him to continue the very responsible duties of his office. One of the suggestions of M.

de Blowitz in connection with his appointment was that it foreshadowed the election of either Mgr. Ledochow- ski or else some other non-Italian cardinal as pontiff at the next conclave. JUBAL EARLY'S CAREER. He WM One of the of the Jubal A. Early, who diud recently at Lynchburtf, was born in Franklin county, 1817, and entered West Point in 1883.

Of late years Gen. Early, was a commissioner to oversee the drawings of tho Louisiana lottery until the removal of the offices of that concern to Honduras. As a colonel the deceased commanded a brigade at Bull- Run, and in the battle at Willisms- b.urg, May 5, 1803, was mortally wounded, according to first reports.

He was at mie time a newspa- per reporter. Then lie became a nuws- paper editor. Now lie is a bank presi- with several oilier things on his hajids. Mr. Stone was born in Ilud- son.

Two years later he entered upon a business career by the purchase of an interest in a foundry and machine shop, of which he became the sole proprietor in 1870. In the great fire of 1871 he lost all ho had and was heavily in debt. Then it was that he became a newspaper reporter. A position on the old Republican was piven, and when that paper was merged into the Inter Ocean Mr. Stone became its city editor.

In June, 1873, ho was made assistant editor of the Mail, and upon the consolidation of that paper with the old Post Mr. Stono became nmnatfinp editor. A few months later he withdrew and went to Washington as a correspondent for several western papers. He returned to Chicago in 187R and resumed the position on the Post and Mail, but soon resigned, and on Christmas day, 1875, he published the first number of tho Daily News. In 1878 the Post and Mail suspended, and Messrs.

Lawson and Stono bought the wreck. In 1881 the publication of a morning edition of tho News was bepun. It in now the Record. January 1, 1SS3, the partnership between Mr. Lawson and Mr.

Stone expired by limitation, and a stock company was formed with a capital of $160,000, all of which stock was held by Lawson and Stone. The latter remained in the newspaper business until 1888, when he had made a fortune and retired from journalism. Ho spent two years abroad, and upon his return three years ago he organized the Globe national bank, of which institution ho is first vice president to-day. lie is also general manager of the Associated Press, succeeding William Henry Smith.
