SCHOOL FRATERNITIE8.

{'•'•While the ruling of Professor Records and the school board against fraternities in the schools of Terre Haute may seem a bit drastic ^at the outset, they had ample precedent for their ultimaturh. Such orders have been promulgated, recently by the school boards in Chicago, Philadelphia, Omaha Lou•j••? isville and innumerable other -places where the school authorities consid•^jred that the diversified activities associated with the fraternities retard school work and deprive the students pf the full benefit of their time in ithelr school years. Prof. C. G. Congleton some years ago prepared an

Analysis of his Investigations relative $0 fraternities and their influence on the schools, and while he commended the basic ideas of such associations, he said he was forced to the conclusion that they did infringe seriously on school work and those students more deeply concerned in fraternal affairs were less able in their studies. He said that the ratio of Inefficiency Increased with the degree of enthusiasm in fraternities and his verdict Wtts that such organizations are undesirable, at least among students of high school ages. When put on the grounds of detracting from the precious time of high school years, the iction of the school board will hardly find any strenuous opposition among the parents of the Greek letter legions -—and their interests in the matter are Jjfrtinent to say the least.

THE UPHEAVAL.

The business men of Cincinnati fear the Outcome of the sudden application 0f stite-wide prohibition in Ohio and have drafted resolutions setting out ^vhat economic upheaval would follow the enactment of the law. j^Slx million of dollars are said to have fceen contributed last year as revenues to the cities, counties and state of Ohio fey the taxation and regulation of the liqudr traffic.

If the prohibition amendment carries these cities, counties and the state will, the business men say, be short those venues and other subjects of taxation must produce that enormous sum

of money, for it is not to be thought for a moment that the revenue will not be required.

If there were no other point to be considered by the votrs of Ohio, if there were no other objection to the prohibition amendment to be pointed out, we think this one, so Important to all the citizens, so menacing to the taxpayers of the state, should command the most careful attention by the voters of the state before they cast their ballots.

If the amendment is adopted it will revolutionize the financial affairs of a number of the cities and the counties, and create a vacuum in their treasuries that will call for the revision of their schedules of taxation to a degree that will force onerous burdens upon the taxpayers.

If the amendment is adopted the state will be compelled to add to its revenues. for a time at least, through the levying of taxes upon additional subjects to provide revenue or by calling for much higher rates upon those that are now taxed.

Some of the statements made in opposition to prohibition are fallacious, others far fetched, illogical, Inapplicable. Some of the arguments against regulation can be placed under the same classification, but in this matter of revenue to be lost through adoption of this amendment and Increased taxation necessary to supply that lost cash, no advocate of prohibition can deny it and no taxpayer can escape from the higher taxes that will follow.

THE MEANING OF ELECTION.

The coming of James E. Watson to address the voters of Vigo county more acutely directs attention to the importance of the political situation than any other incident of the campaign. It has been represented that the element that drove Roosetvelt out of the Chicago convention has been ostracized by the republican party and that the party has purged itself of the influences which brought about the humiliation of the progressive element. Watson abroad, speaking in the interests of the party, gives the lie to such assertion. Other circumstances, too, disprove it and make it plain that the interests inimical to Roosevelt are back in the saddle.

Starting in New England and moving westward it is possible to see how the reactionary contingent in the republican party has triumphed otver the progressive element and captured the places on the ticket. In New Hampshire, for Instance, there was a grand rally to the standard of Senator Jacob H. Gallagher, one of the most pronounced of the reactionaries, who has voted against every progressive measure since he has been a member of the senate, including the popular election of senators, the Income tax, the children's bureau, parcel post extension and every measure favored by labor. In addition he voted twice for Lorimer, dodged the vote to oust "Ike" Stephenson, who admitted spending $109,000 to gain his election, and Ivoted for Judge Archbold, who was impeached by more than a three to one majority of the senate.

Also the New Hampshire republicans have renominated for congress former Representative "Cy" Sulloway, for sixteen years one of the cogs in the Cannon machine in the house and a bour-

bon of bourbons. They turned down a real progressive republican to nominate "Cy."

In New York "Boss" Barnes won a| signal triumph in having his man, At-torney-General Whitman, named for the governorship and as a choice between two standpatters for the senatorship they selected "Jimmy" Wads-, worth, former speaker of the assembly, a son of ex-Representative James W. Wadsworth, another of "Joe" Cannon's I henchmen. Young Wadsworth is a chip off the old block, a reactionary like his father.

In Pennsylvania' the republicans, against the protest of more than 100,-, 000 of their party, have nominated Sentor Boies Penrose, whose record as a standpatter it is not necessary to reeite here.

When it is recalled what Penrose did to the credentials of the Roosefvelt delegates it can be accepted that the welfare of the progressive party is hardly his most serious concern. When Penrose tells his Pennsylvania audiences that "A year from now there will be I no progressive party," one can imagine his real sentiment towards the progressive voter.

BEATING THE EGG TRUST.

Undaunted by the impossibility of "unscrambling an egg," the attorneygeneral of New York is trying tp unscramble the "egg trust."

Whether or not there is such a trust, in the strict sense of the word, the pub lie knows there is something wrong with the present system, and agrees with the attorney-general when he says: "I believe, from a careful study of the official market report, that the wholesale prices demanded and received for storage eggs have not been due to a scarcity in the supply available or to the abnormal demand."

The sudden development and extension of cold storage facilities has made easy a practical monopolization of the egg market. Owners or lessee# of great storage houses in New York, Chicago and other cities buy eggs cheaply in the spring and summer and make enormous profit by selling them later at winter prices. They "steady prices," to be sure—by keeping them up the year around.

It is hard to present price-fixing among storage men. Something has been done in the way of regulating the storage houses. But perhaps the real solution of the egg problem, and the problem of other perishable foodstuffs, lies in the extension of storage facilities to the public. Cleveland has set the example, with its big public market cooling rooms, where any citizen may store eggs, butter, fruit or anything else, for as long a period as he likes, at a charge so small as to give him an absolute means of evading the payment of tribute to food speculators.

"Jim" Watson calls Beveridge's speech the dying squeak of a political machine. It sounds more like the trumpeting of the moose in full charge.

It is reported that "Villa 1$ preparing for war again. I'his should not and does not worry anybody who knows that he does that every morning before he shaves.

According to astrology, this Is one of the rare days in which the stars exert the best influences upon the inhabitants of the earth. The sun is so strongly beneflc in aspect that its power dominates all the planets. Saturn and Uranus also stimulate human activities.

It is a most propitious time to realize dreams of any sort. Ambition may be put to the test successfully under this sway of the chief luminary.

The aspect is promising for all who seek employment. It is held that the vibrations from the heavens stir in the brains of the great and successful kindly feelings and that he who desires aid in any enterprise or help toward any attainment will have unusual chance of successs.

The aspect is a lucky one for dealings with government representatives of every rank. Diplomats and statesmen are subject to the best leadings. A southern man will win fame.

Persons whose birthdate it is have a fortunate anniversary. Men will prosper in business affairs. Women have the augury of happiness.

Children born on this day have the probability of much joy in life. They

SULPHUR FOR ECZEMA

APPLIED LIKE COLD CREAM IT STOPS ITCHING AND DRIES SKIN ERUPTIONS RIGHT. UP

With the first application of boldsulphur the angry Itching attending any eczema eruption ceases and its remarkable healing powers begin. Sulphur, says a renowned dermatologist, just common bold-sulphur, made into a thick cream will soothe and heal the skin when irritated and broken out with Eczema or any form of eruption. The moment it is applied all itching ceases and after two or three applications the Eczema disappears, leaving the skin clear and smooth.

He tells Eczema sufferers to get from any good pharmacy an ounce of boldsulphur and apply it to the irritated,
