CONGRESS ADJOURNS.

Indiana's delegation in congress fully shares ih the kind words which President Wilson uttered on the adjournment of that body Saturday and the senators from this st&te, all the members of the house *3t, representatives and Congressman Moss, especially, return to their people with full knowledge that they have contributed a notable part in the achievement of the "Wilson policies" which have been so profoundly' endorsed by men of all parties. The public mind relative to the session which has just ended is reflected in the letter of the president to Mr. Underwood. It is an inspiration for every man in public service. The president says: "jVl look forward with confidence to the ejections.- The Tvoters of the United States have never failed to reward real sfervice. They have never failed to sustain a congress and administration that were seeking, as this congress and, KfAi I believe,, this administration, have sought, to give them a permanent ar.d disinterested benefit in the shape of ite^ormed and rectified laws. "Thy know that, extraordinary as the record is. which I haVe recited, our .-task is not done that a great work of constructive development remains 4 to be accomplished in building up our merchant miarine, for instance", and in the completion of a great program for ^he cons«tvatioH^-Qf our .natural resources and the development. of the water power of the country—a program which hasat this "session already been carried Several ste'ps toward con-

"They knoT&^Qflwtbat without a congress in close synipdthy with the administration a whole sSheme of peace and honor and disinterested service to the world, of which they have approved, cannot be brought to its full realization: 1 wwild like to go into the district of every member of congress who has .sustained' and advanced the ^Ulans of^fhe party and speak out my ®£dVocary. of his claim for re-election. ^VBut, of course, I cannot do that and •§gi with so clear a record no member of congress' needs a spokesman. What he has done speaks for itself. If it. be a mere question of political fortunes,

I believe the immediate future of the party to "he as certain as the past is secure." **.'

CHANGED

WAR.

4 One of the British ministers voices the lament that German naval tactics have entirely upset the British calculations which expected the German fleet to come out of the North sea and be completely squelched by the numerous and well armed British fleet. Instead the German "flfeet is still intact arid the heaviest-? naval losses have been sustaihed through the operations of German sufeftfarinete. The skill displayed

!^*''v'r."^yT*'7"Y»r ~-v •*•".» /, ?"vr«^'*1"-"

by these fighters is one of the wonders of the war. 'f'he sinking of ihe Hawk.? and the large loss of life merely emphasizes a danger which was already well understood. It is the more terrifying in that no means of defense has yet been demised.

The use of the submarine is altogether justified. On land the sharpshooter picks off the enemy's men, himself well concealed and in little danger. The submarine picks off the enemy's ships, itself invisible and immune. The nation which makes the most effective use of submarines doe not lay Itself open to charges of inhumanity or of violating the "ethics" of the war game.

Great Britain, probably, has submarines as efficient and as ably manned as those of Germany. But the concealment of the German navy renders the British craft practically useless. The Germans, on the other hand, may find a target whenever they choose to venture out Into the North sea.

It would require many submarine exploits to reduce materially the strength and efficiency of the British navy. But it is none the less terrible for the British to feel that their nwval power Is being very slowly but none the lew steadily diminished by an enemy against whom they can offer ho resistance. ...

THE SAFETY VALVE.

With President Wilson at the head of this nation and Secretary Bryan at his right hand, there is little danger that we shall become involved in the great war. Things are bound to happen a.i hostilities proceed which will inflair.e the jingo spirit, in this country, and those who mistake wise patience and love of peace for cowardice will scream for revenge for some real or fancied grievance. But the men who guide our national destinies have shown by their admirable conduct of our Mexican relations„that they are not to be influenced by the outcries of the unthinking and the excitable.

'AN ILL WIND.'

One of the encouraging signs of the times is the announcement that freight movements all over the country are increasirig and one of the factors in this imi„.ovement of conditions is the increasing of exports due to new demand from the European countries that are at war.

At a convention of carriage builders held at Atlantic City, N. J., last week, many of the delegates reported that the war has brought big contracts to factories all over the country which were temporarily closed and that these factories are now working overtime to fill such orders. They predicted that this condition will prevail for at le&£t another year and expect 1915 to prove to be the biggest year for business this country has exer known.

There has also been noted during' the past fortnight or so increased activity in the exports of steel anj steel products from some of our largest corporations in that industry, and according to some Of the leaders in that industry the near future majsee the United States steel export movement raised from an annual basis of approximately 1,500,000 tons to 2500,000. tons.

Important orders for our American merchandise are expected to be placed through His Hellenic Majesty's Consul General C. Vassardakis, who is now in the United States on a special trade promoting mission for the Greek government and has established permanent quarters for that purpose.

Colonel Roosevelt charges that the republican party has gone over "body and breeches" to the "enemies of thi people." When the topic of republicanism is up the colonel has no heart.

HOROSCOPE FOB A DAY.

Tuesday, Oct. 20, 1914.

.This is a day when the planets rule with powerfully opposing influences, the seers declare. Saturn, Jupiter and Mars are strongly adverse and Mercury alone is distinctly benefic.

The sign is exceedingly encouraging for leasing, the signing of contracts and entering into new partnerships. Gain through business conducted by letter is under the best aspect.

Writers have the omen of a period cf prosperity. Cheap editions of. books are foretold, but authors will benefit, the seers declare.

There is a prophecy of extreme activity and growth for certain small western towns especially those well supplied with cheap fuel.

Speculation is subject to the worst possible leading under this configuration. While fortunes are indicated for those who. take great risks in the new year, warning is given against too great optimism, for the stars will Inspire daring and recklessness.

According to astrologers the birth .rate, will rise in this country, and more boys than girls will be born in the next few years.

Progress in science and art are foreshadowed for the United States, even though the stars Indicate financial problems which demand retrenchment in expenditures.

Persons whoso birthdate it is havo an unlucky omen for the year. They should be on their guard against quarrels and law suits.

Children born on this day will be extremely positive in character, probably, and difficult to manage. Boys may be Inclined toward intemperance. Girls should be carefully protected. r— ,fc''

PROGRESSIVES 10 POSH CAMPAIGN THIS WEEK

Announces List of Meetings in Various Parts of County—Gulley to Deliver Speeches.

The progressives of Vigo county are planning for a busy week, according to the program arranged by ViceChairman Frank Buckingham, of the county committee. This is Mr. Gulley's last week of campaigning in this county and he will speak every evening in addition to which it has been planned to have Earl H. Crawford deliver two addresses Monday.

Monday evening Mr. Gulley will speak at the skating rink at Twelve Points and Tuesday evening in the high school building at Youngstown, Wednesday evening Mr. Crawford will speak in West Terre Haute at 5:30 o'clock in the afternoon and at 8 o'clock in the evening he will address a gathering at the Red Men's hall at 'Swelye Points. Although held under the auspices of the progressive party, the Crawford addresses will be non-parti-san, as Mr. Crawford is a democrat who wishes to bring about a reformation of that party by the enactment of the initiative, referendum and recall, which, he claims, is the only method by which the political boss and machine can be eliminated from American life.

Mr. Gulley will address a meeting at Middletown Wednesday evening and Thursday evening he will be at Fon^ tanet. Coming back to this city Friday, he will speak at Red Men's hall, Seventeenth and Hnlman streets, Friday evening and Saturday evening he will finish his Vigo county campaign at Asperger's hall in Riley.

^—•—8S

^y Special Correspondent. BICKNELI* IncL, Oct 19.—James S. Pritchett, who suddenly dropped dead from heart trouble late Saturday night at the home of Mrs. R. J. Greenlaw* In Vincennes, where he had gone on important legal business, was the most widely known attorney In this section of the state. Mr. Pritchett was noted criminal lawyer, fought many battles only on the side of the defense, which was his main forte, when he knew full well that there were slim chances of his clients being' acquitted.

Mr. Pritchett was lpayor of Vincennes In the sixties, later city attorney, and a member,of the city council from 1896 to January 1 of this year. He first read law with Col. W. A. Jones and was admitted to practice In 1864. He first formed a partnership with Judge Harrison Burns, who was the author of "Burns' Index and Burns' Digest." S' ft3

Mr. Pritchett was born In Warrenton, Ind., and at the time of his death was 75 years of age. He is survived by a wife and one daughter and one son. He was an Elk and held high offices in that order. No arrangements have been made for the funeral.

EIRE DAMAGES ROOF.

A fire starting in a closet at the home of Steve Hedges, 429 North Fifth street, Sunday morning, caused damage amounting to about $15.

Slight damage, was done to the roof of the house.

RUN DOWN BY ENGINE.

Albert L. Goodwin, 69 years old, a Big Four railroad switchman, was hit by an engine in the Duane yards Sunday evening and suffered a broken leg and injuries about the body. He was taken to St. Anthony's hospital. People who saw the accident say that Mr. Goodwin stepped from before one switch engine when another, going the opposite direction, struck him. He lives at 2634 North Thirteenth street.

An invitation is ex* tended by Dr. Fierce to all sick and ailing people to consult with' out cost his staff of physicians, surgeons, ana specialists.
