governor has honored Terra

tlie

appointment

Mr. W.

f| Ball as one of the first directors of ie new state penal farm. Few n.en in ie state are better fltted for tlie work organizing this new adjunct to ,£he state's reformative system. For many this Terre Haute citizen has been identified with the work of the state Soard of charities and by virtue of his position has come in close contac: with |the class of individuals for whom the Mj 'jbfenefitte of the reformative operations

Of the commonwealth are intended. The Initiative on the part of the stato in this matter sounds a hopeful note. After ail is said about the present penal system, after it. is considered from all sides, it amounts to a plan of ||HKmflnement, more likely to instill de|f ipai}r and dejection and to stitic any of It the! .better purposes of the subject up-

On whom it is inflicted. The newer notion of the. duty of the state in this it connection, which is embracing efforts mi lor the physical, moral and educational *™^feelfare of inmates of sjch institutions

the commission named by the j:ov--jior. If all of the members of r.ne SRRE Bnmission bring to the enterprise interest in the work and such for its achievement as "Terre Hautean named for this the movement should be and efficiently organized.

The governor showed in that speech how far in excess of the expenditures of Indiana are those of Wisconsin and other states which are now being held up as models. He saic that if the people of Indiana wanted to get in line with those of Wisconsin and other progressive states a greater expenditure of money will be necessary.

TELEPHONE PAYMENTS.

In order to do away with the annoyance to subscribers at being called upon by a telephone collector or of having to write a check, mail it and pay the postage, the Lincoln Telephone & Telegraph company has devised a plan to facilitate the transaction. The plan is for the subscriber to sign a slip which authorizes the bank to accept telephone bills the same as checks, when presented. The bank will include the receipted telephone bill with the cancelled checks in the statement at the end of each month. "This system," says Public Service, "saves both the subscriber and the company trouble. There is no chance that the subscriber's bank balance will be reduced without his knowledge for the reason that his telephone bill is the same each month. The telephone company guarantees to refund any amount paid by the bank the subscriber would not have paid if the bill had been presented to him."

There is po question but that the plan would facilitate business and greatly reduce the telephone operating expenses and if said reduction redounded to the benefit of the patron, a mutual agreement for the adoption of the plan' should be easily consummated.

TALK CHEAP? NOT ALWAYS.

According to the day's dispatches, George Fred Williams has been asked to resign as minister to Greece. Mr. Williams may have been inspired by the highest humanitarian motives in his Albanian utterances, but he seems to have run counter to the diplomatic code of ethics.

In 1896 Mr. Williams was Mr. Bryan's foremost adherfent in New England. At that time a free silver advocate in Massachusetts was a rare bird. A Bryanite was likely to be looked upon as slightly demented. Mr. Williams endured countless taunts and jibes, and valiantly led the little handful of the faithful.

From then till now there has been no wavering in Mr. Williams' devotion. To be sure, he was not an original Wilson man in the Baltimore convention, but that did not overbalance his past steadfastness and activity. His appointment to the Athens post was interpreted as a mark of Mr. Bryan's gratitude and appreciation.

Mr. Williams apparently desired the position, and apparently liked it after he got it. Why he deliberately proceeded to commit diplomatic suicide must remain a mystery. Perhaps the same spirit which led him to support the hopeless sliver cause in Massachusetts inspired him to tell the truth about Albania, regardless of how it might affect his own fortunes.

The difficulty is that Albanian affairs are definitely and distinctly none of George Fred Williams' business.

AROUND IN RINGS.

The current number of Leslie's Weekly, the mouthpiece for the high protectionists, contains the following interesting item:

The New Jersey state chamber of commerce announces a new movement. It proposes to Induce business men to enter politics and to work together for business development and expansion in state and nation. A special committee of- thirteen, representing the thirteen congressional districts, will take an interest In the congressional primaries and election on a non-partisan basis. In Louisiana prominent business men are organizlnz a non-partisan business movement to emphasize the protest of the state against the destruction of the sugar industry under the new law.

If the Louisiana men organize to protect the sugar industry it means that they will seek to have protective tariffs enacted and that they will try to get a greater price for the products. How will that proposition set with the neighbor over in Georgia? He will probably be averse to paying more for his sugar, but he will likely apply the plan to get a higher price for cotton. Then take a chamber of commerce up in Pennsylvania. Such an organization will be in favor of keeping down the price of sugar and cotton in favor of a little more protection on steel and coal. Going west, a chamber of commerce in Wyoming will likely be In falvoring of keeping down the price of sugar, cotton, steel and coal, if some little advantage can be had in the price of wool. A little farther west the chambers of commerce will likely seek to induce low prices on everything if a little more protection can be gained for citrus fruits. And so it goes, sectional interests trying to coddle themselves through the fallacy of protective tariff—"everyone for himself and the devil for the hindmost," an economic problem which will probably prevail as long as does the chase for the dollnr.

Huerta may not have all the elements of a refined nature, but as a humorist he shows much speed. Observe that election of his on Sunday.

And now they are talking of Franklin D. Roos "elt as a candidate for
