Indianapolis Sun is justly indignant that the state senate should have defeated the anti-trust bill but it slightly slops over when it refers to the direlict members as "Damn coWai'dly curs—liars and thieves—who by false pretense hav broken into Hie halls of legislation." It suggests the famous faux pas of the Indianapolis Sentinel some years ago when that
paper,-affen-
of
State Senator O'Brien, who is also Democratic state chair man, refused to vote for the Sunday base ball bill because he had promised his wife he would not support it and he refused to vote against it because he had assured some of his sporting friends that he would do the measure no harm. In consequence he finds himself in contempt of the senate. This carryin^ of water on both shoulders is burdensome business.

.The bill increasing the salary of the governor to $10,000 is anv altogether reasonable proposition. It costs the incumbent of that office practically tjiat sum every year to maintain the dignity of the position in accordance with the social

THE REMOVAL OF M'DONALD.
'Tlie summary removal by Governor Durbin of John S. McDonald of the board of the Jeffersonville reformatory is not tending to popularize the governor. The people feel that he has resorted to a subterfuge in order to obtain a revenge which the legislature refused to wreak for him. Governor Durbin. has made a. mistake if he assumes that he can retain the respect of the people of Indiana and remove Mr. McDonald without giving him a hearing and showing just cause for the action. The discussion of the notorious ripper bill renders all the mole necessary the proof of Mr. McDonald's malfeasance in office and it is being generally remarked over the state that the governor is remarkably remiss in substantiating the charges of maladministration at Jeffersonville, which were so freely yet vaguely made during the recent legislative fight. If there has been something wrong going on at the reformatory the people are entitled to know it and the facts should be made public. The removal of Mr. McDonald without a hearing, however, but serves to convince the state that the governor is actuated not by duty but by malice and that tne affairs of the institution have been administered in an exemplary maimer.

editorial decency. It is still held against the paper by thousands of good men and women and it has come to pass that whenever a paper slips the cable of propriety some one in. every discussing group will speak up and say, "Why, that pretty nearly as bad as the Sentinel made when it jumped onto the Supreme court, etc." The offense has been perpetuated by recitation and will long live in the annals of Indiana as the high, water mark of editorial intemperance.
%K. temperance people are probably not at all averse to the brewers' bill which provides for local option by precincts a lid for the $1,000 license fee. This would eliminate the idea of coercion, so objeectionable in the blanket remonstrance law, and would at the same time enable each community to decide by secret ballot the temperance question. The high license would remove the disreputable doggeries'and would place the saloon business on a higher plane than ever before. At any rate the bill lias considerable to commend it to the thoughtful consideration of the legislature.

THE WIDE WORLD ROUND.
Jewish Immigration.
The great and significant increase in Jewish immigration of recent years and the change in the European sources from wliich which it comes are shown very strikingly in .statistics presented by the American Hebrew.
During the last four years Jews constituted more than 11 per cent.i'of the whole number of immigrants to the United States, or 213,905, out of 1,896,948. This is an average of more than 50,000 a year and the Jewish immigration is continuing in large volume, if not increasing. During the last six months of 1902 the arrivals at New York alone aggregated 35,656, out of a total immigration of 230,828.
About 70 per cent, of the Jewish immigration for the four years remained in New York, 148,975, but of the other immigrants, only about 29 per cent. The tendency of the Jews to the great cities is indicated further by the circumstance that all except about 10 per cent, e* the remainder went to the states in which are situated the cities of Chicago, Philadelphia, and Boston. Thus, the rapid growth of the Jewish population of our largest cities, New York more especially, is explained. New York now contains more than half a million Jews, and if the immigration continues at the rate of the last two years the number will be about 1,000,000 at the end of the decade.
Greatest of All—A Father's Love for His Daughter. "The love of a father for his daughter if, I think, the very purest love that earth can know, the love that comes the nearest tc what we all imagine the divine love to be. The love of a husband for his wife when it endures the storm and stress wliich mark the period of mutual adaption, is wonderfully beautiful yet it had it had its birth in passion, and the memories of its early years remain to keep it very human. The love that is given to a father or a mother is strong and deep and lasting yet it lacks the exaltation and supreme emotion which are necessary to the love that has no flaw. The love of a father for his son is intense and overmastering yet there is a touch of personal pride, of almost conscious egotism, in it, which renders it not wholly selfless and serene. But the love of a father for the girl child who has been born to him is more than any other love on earth, in its purity, its unalterable constancy, its power of ^self-sacrifice, its profound delight, and its infinite tenderness.
The Oldest City in the World.
No city in the East presents more charming pictures of oriental life and color than Damascus and no other city contains so many magnificent private houses, whose shaded courts and luxurious chambers take us back in fancy to the enchanted period of oriental splendor celebrated in the "Arabian Nights." But. however luxurious the houses, the gardens of Damascus have even greater charm, and they are not only profusely scattered throughout the city, but they stretch*for miles around, where the waters have rescued almost a province from the desert. "Damascus," says a late writer, "has had a longer continuous existence than any city that is standing in the world today. Over this garden spot of the desert there has been eternal conflict. Bloodshed has been its portion, and century after century haswitrtessed battle without and massacre within its walls.'' The article quoted is entertainingly written, and it is illustrated with a striking series of photographs.
Is "Chortle" a Dictionary Word?
When Lewis -Carroll wrote "O fhibpus'
*ay!
Callooh! Callay!"
He chortled in his joy,
he doubtless anticipated no perpetuity for his queer verb, any more than for the equally queer and almost as ingenious adjective frabjous. But chortle tickled- the fancy of his readers. It suggested the gurgle of senile exultation, and seemed, like Shakespeare's duke, to "fill a place." Hence it has had currency enough to get into large dictionary, and in time it may establish iteslf, as chuckle and giggle have done.
Science and Religion.
Sir William Crookes has collected, examined and correlated many of the known facts concerning telepathy, spiritualism, hypnotism, king's touch. Lourdes, mental healing, the Peculiar People and Christian Science and the result, while it destroys the "facts'*of what the vulgar suspect to be spiritualism, presents a relationship between science and religion which can be demonstrated before the world. The publication of this inquiry is not likely to be delayed very long.

CANECA, Mexico, Feb. 13—At Cabajococodehuachi, 30 miles south of San Mariel, situated on the northern slope of the Bacatete mountains, Mexican troops of the fourth battalien, under command of Colonel Hina, met Yaqui forces under Cutmazolo, on February 5, and defeated them in a terrific battle. Many Yaqui women fought valorously in the ranks against the attacking forces and Mexican bullets pierced them through as repeated volleys were fired. Bravely the women stood the rain of leaden missiles and when one would fall mortally wounded, another would step forward in her place.
Colonel i^ina, with 12,000 troops, surrounded the Yaquis after a difficult march and destroyed all means of retreat from the hill on which tlicy were intrenched. The horses of the Indians were stampeded down the hill by Mexican scouts and the Indians became panic stricken. The Mexicans, bent upon extermination, made no distinctions in sex. The result was that the Yaqui women sought arms to defend themselves against against the Mexicans. Father Gorsave pleaded with the Yaqui warriors for a rifle with which to defend himself and convent sisters in case they were attacked by Mexican soldiers. He was furnished with a rifle and joined in the battle.
THOMAS' ORCHESTRA WANT MONEY
CHICAGO,- Feb. 13.—Unless $175,000 be pledged to the endowment of the Chicago Orchestra within the next six weeks the musicians of Theodore Thomas will be disbanded and the concerts will be at an end, according to a communication .which the trustees of the Orchestra association have issued to the public.
Of the amou^t^pecess^jy $100,000 lias been pledged by'vten friends of the orchestra. This is part of the sum needed to endow the orchestra and build it a home. Unless the whole amoxint be raised the orchestra will end its existence with the concerts on March 27 and •28.
The ten men who have pledged $100,000 have purchased a site for the proopsed home of the Orchestra in Michigan avenue. The total cost of the site and .the -structure will be $750,000.
HUSBAND SUSPECTED OF WIFE MURDER
CINCINNATI, O., Feb. 13.—Almost devoid of colthing, the body of Mrs. Ada M. Geiger, the young wife of Fred Geiger, a foreman carriage painter, was found last night, jammed head downward in a wash sink in the kitchen of their home, 1613 Linn street. She had been murdered in a terrible manner. The back of her head was crushed in with some heavy instrument and her face disfigured by a number of savage jabs and cuts from a pair of scissors.
The husband, Fred Geiger, is under arrest, but he stoutly maintains that he is innocent. The four-year-old boy of the couple says that his parents quarreled at the super table and that his father struck his mother.
A Vigorous Governor.
Governor Chamberlain of Connecticut is evidently a man who believes in taking the bull by the horns in case of necessity and is opposed to timid, halfhearted action like that now existing in Waterbury. The plaint of the local sheriff that the governor sent more troops than the sheriff asked for will not command public sympathy. Experience teaches that the best way to stop rioting is to confront rioters with such overwhelming force that they will quickly recognize the impotency in contending against the orderly sentiment of a community.
A good illustration of the fact is shown in the results of the course adopted by Roswell P. Flower at the time of the New York Central strike in Buffalo in 1892. Because of the turbulent conditions existing there, Gov. FloWer promptly sent to the scene of the disorder practically the entire national guard of the state, outnumbering the disturbers by about five to one. They were not slow to recognize the hopelessnes of their course, and the lawlessness came to a sudden close. The wisdom of that policy has apparently appealed to Governor Chamberlain of Connecticut.
A MOTHER'S RECOMMENDATION. I have used Chamberland's Cough Remedy for a number of years and have no hesitancy in saying that it is the best remedy for coughs, colds and croup I have ever used in my family. I have not words to express my confidence in this remedy.—Mrs. J. A. MoOre, North atar, Mich. For sale by all druggists.
