Indiana, as second-class matter T -, — — —i "'’-rr Evidently those senators who aro supporting Newberry are doing so on the theory that he has bought and paid for hie seat and ought to have it for that’s about the only excuse that can be offered. Ex-governor James P. Goodrich is the newest guess as a successor to , Will Hays as postmaster general should the latter accept the picture . job as now seems assured. Mr. Good- , • rich stands well with the administration and his selection would please ; . his Indiana friends. The minute is to the hour what the , penny is to the dollar and those who ( win must save both and keep on do- , ing it Wastfullness is a crime and ( a lot of people throw time away and ( think they are wise 'in doing it. Al- , ways they find they are wrong but ( . too late. < When it is known that Secretary Mellon is a director in companies with total resources of nearly two I billion dollars, including several ' - breweries and distilleries, this may < explain his position cn the income 1 tax law, the prohibition questions and several other matters now before 1 congress. The treaty creating the Irish Free * State was ratified late Saturday by ( the Dail Eirann and Valera has re- • signed. He declares he will carry on for the republic for which he has dreamed but students of the great question believe that government ’ under the new treaty will prove so popular that opponents will soon lose the support now given them. — 1 - < The citizens of Decatur regret that ’ Rev. Saunders of the Presbyterian J church and his family, have felt duty 1 bound to accept the call to a Denver ‘ church but they unanimously hope i for them all the happiness and sue- , cess that come to excellent people i which they are. They have endeared ; themselves to this community, and 1 their good work here will be felt to ‘ advantage for many years. The Burdick Tire and Rubber 1 company of Noblesville is in the , hands of a receiver and hundreds of ■ I people over Indiana who believed the j smooth story of the slick stock sales- | 1 man are now grieving over their losses. If when you are approached by these men you go to some banker in whom you have confidence you will ’ be playing it safe for usually his ad vice is worth considering seriously. ■' i The progressive party is now being ' revived in Nebraska and the Wall street Journal, strictly an old guard paper devotes an entire column to efforts to crush the movement which may develops such proportions as to defeat several northwest republican senatorial aspirants. Out west they are arguing in strong language just now that political promises have not been kept and the worst part is they prove it. The Journal has a right to feel alarmed over prospects. Mr. Tincher, of Kansas, in the exuberance of his soul, cried out in thr house for a tariff tax of one thousand percent on importations from Germany. Mr. Mann of lliuois, who tries to keep his feet on the ground, said in reply: "Let there be a few more statements on this side of the house that the republicans are in favor of a tariff duty of ope thousand percent.

’ and there will not be enough republicans here to gather together in one aisle. 1 have been here long . enough to know." -i i . ■■■■" g ■ In this early part of the new year ; It la well for us all to think over the words of Henry C. Frick, who went from a very poor boy to a multi millionaire. He said: "There is no secret about success. Success simply calls for hard work, devotion to your business at all times, day and night. I was very poor and my education limited but I worked very hard and always sought opportunities. To win in the battle of life a man needs in addition to whatever ability he possesses, courage, tenacity and deliberation. He muat learn never to lose his head but above all, hard work is the thing." Mr. Hear of Wisconsin is a republican congressman; on page 832 ot the Congressional Record. January 8, he said: "Congress is repeatedly charged with unsoaking the rich while preparing to akin those least able to pay. Is that charge true? In this session of congress it is proposed to pass a consumption or sales tax that will lay a new tax burden and increased prices on necessaries of life consumed by four to five millions of idle laborers and their families, on millions of farmers and other laborers and their families who are now fighting for a bare existence, and on over three millions of ex-eol-diers and their families, who are told the price of any compensation bill is a consumption tax.” And yet tho congress has sent 20 millions to Russia to feed people no more starving than millions here in the United States.

The condition ot the plant# compared with normal is 92 percent, which is eomewhat above the average. Weather . - conditions up to the first of December s were especially favorable.
