MERCHANTS' EFFORTS.

'riUcism of th« merchants for their efforts in seeking to restore normal conditions among the executive heads of the city comes with amazing lack of consideration or with ignorance of •what they are really seeking to accomplish. The Retail Merchants' association has nothing to conceal. Its members certainly cannot be charged •with prejudice towards the best inter* ests of the city. The retail merchants •would iuH he engaged in any enterj.'riso ilmUal to the business, socinl or civic welfare of the city. The surprising effort to cast aspersions on them and to hold their organization up to ridicule will likely meet with little encouragement. If every organization displayed such foresightedness and auch self-sacrifice in Terre Haute and lier best interests as does the Retail Merchants' association the city would have more success In overcoming such obstacles as have deterred her advancement and have been sources of discord and unrest. If the retail merchants are able to cope with such problems they will have done a work in •which other organizations have had little success.

THE COURSE OF EVENTS.

Immediate independence for the Philippines has never been proposed by responsible leaders In the United States. That has been the propaganda of island agitators and of Philippine representatives in this country, embued perhaps with some of the spirit of the agitators. But even they are quieter now.

It is suggested in explanation that the Filipinos have been watching the European war. If so, they have seen Belgium virtually wiped out. They see Serbia all but crushed. Tn all directions they observe the power of might, regardless of right.

Belgium offers the Filipinos a particular object lesson. For Belgium was

"neutralized," much as the Philippines would be, were independence to be granted thom. In spite of International agreements, however, Belgium was crushed beneath the heel of a mighty military aggressor.

The United States is in honor bound to give the Filipinos their freedom as soon as they appear capable of complete self-government. That fact should never be lost sight of. And, Just as clearly, successive grants of partial self-government shou'd be made In order to prepare the natives for independent existence. Nevertheless, it may be well to consider Relglum in future discussions of the subject.

THE PEACE MISSION.

No matter what the outcome of Mr. Henry Ford's peace proposals, few will charge him with mere seeking of notoriety and the regrettable thing is that his plan really is not considered efficacious. Nobody can question the goodness of heart of the Individuals who Imagine that Mr. Ford's peace expedition may induce the belligerents to ground their arms and sit down and reason together over the foliy of a war that has cost so much blood and treasure and brought blessings to nobody. Onlookers from the first have regarded it a bootless war. No conceivable peace could repay a single belligerent, with the possible exception of Japan, what it has spent in lives. The future will be burdened with debt and with woe. Millions of people have been killed or maimed for life. In many cases family names have been blotted out. It may take generations to root out the international hatred which this war has emplanted in the breasts of the belligerents. Who would not make any sacrifice to stop the infernal slaughter?

How eagerly have we grasped at every sign of peace! How we have strained our eyes looking for the reddening of the dawn! How we have hoped that the reason that has fled to brutish beasts might return to men! But why should we deceive ourselves? It is idle to cry peace, peace, when there is no peace. No belligerent is ready for peace. None would suggest terms that would not be spurned by the others. No nation is exhausted in resources or broken in spirit. Official overtures of kindly offices were rejected long ago. They cannot be renewed at this stafee of the war without being misinterpreted by one side or the other. That is the thing that is deplorable hut true.

PEOPLE TARIFF-CURED,

One of the recent political enterprises that has slumped has been the effort to coax out a little public sentiment in favor of tariff revision. Some of the old guard tried out the proposal on the public and it seems that memories of the tariff barons still linger. High tariff gets about as much response as would a public movement to .send Doctor Cook again to the north pole.

Today finds.' the business of our country at high tide. The basic industries such as iron and copper, telegraph and telephone are in full blast, while the railroads are breaking all records for money earned in moving the gigantic output of our fields and factories. The business year is closing in a great rush of work well done, and the industrial power of the United States is proved again to the satisfaction of all btit the croakers. The signs of this change hart been clear for some time. In the great textile region about Philadelphia the manufacturers had had it dinned Into them for months that low tariff meant ruin even though the war had practically stopped all imports. The turn upward caught these factories short of I everything, and now they are refusing orders while hustling for workers, materials. and tools with which to enlarge their production. To win business here one must have clear-eyed faith in the United States and its future. Our country Is ail rieht and will be more so. "It is entirely possible," says Collier's. "that the end of the war may

bring conditions which will make tariff changes expedient. If such conditions come, this nation must achieve the efficiency and governmental mobility to meet them as quickly as they arise. The best meanB toward this end is a tariff commission."

September and October won golden encomiums, and now November, sour old November, is doing her best to get a share of praise.

The government seems determined to discover whether or not the Ham-burg-American line is part of the German navy.

If the reports about the Incessant bombarding of Gorlzia are true, all the streets there by this time must be shell roads.

You never can tell what will happen during war time. Who would have thought that Greece could cause friction?

Chicago widows are to have an official "tag day." Collections In the alimony courts must be slow these days.

Just aa soon as the allies appear to be ready to start something they immediately plan to start something else.

Anyone who can guess what Rumania Is going to do may gain an easy reputation as a soothsayer.

The gridiron will now be wrapped up and laid away with the court, the diamond and the links.

War is always in offensive. In Russia just now it is specifically offensive on both sides.

Tuesday, November 30, 1915.

If success be sought, the early hours of today should be utilized, astrologers declare, for Jupiter and Saturn are both in beneflc aspect In the morning. Later Jupiter becomes adverse.

Bankers and merchants should profit by transactions made before noon. The evening will be unlucky for plans or conferences, the seers say.

Mining is well directed. Gold and silver will be discovered in a new district in the west, it is prophesied.

There Is a sign indicating that an old man who has held high office will attain prominence by giving a fortune to an altruistic enterprise.

The stars are promising for students. Education is subject to conditions that are most auspicious, and again it is predicted that cojleges will become fclosely connected with state ana national government.

The death of a woman who has been a leader in reform work is indicated. Scandals may be more numerous and more startling the coming year than at any previous time. These will not only affect social relations but political affiliations.

Congress has the augury of a long and stormy session, in which several members will attain more than ordinary publicity.

Women should be trained in all practical lines of work, if the seers are to be believed, for the stars indicate sudden changes of fortune and other vicissitudes that will affect the status of families accustomed to luxury.

The planets foreshadow much agitation of public questions during the coming year, and the formation of many organizations for reforms and economic improvement.

Persons whose birthdate it is should avoid risks of every sort. Men may have a year of great anxiety in finan-r clal matters. The young must, be careful lest they compromise themselves in foolish romances.

Children born on this day prooalily will have many ups and downs in life. These subjects of Sagittarius usually work hard for a living. They are always popular -with persons of opposite sex.

Call 3-2-9 on either phone, our wagon calls, and wash day to you is merely a matter of gathering the soiled clothes together. The linen delivered to our driver means wash day is over so far as you are concerned. When the clothes are returned they will be spotlessly clean, delightfully fresh and sweet smelling. When you consider the expense of washing material, price of help, cost of fuel, the discomfort and aggravation, you will agree with us that our way is the best and truly economical. Go to the telephone right now and call 3-2-9.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.

An Opportunity Sacrificed. Editor Tribune—Sir: It is rather amusing to read about Mr. Ford and his attempt to get some cheap advertising along the peace route. That ho will not succeed should be evident to him. How can he expect peace when there is no peace possible unitl the aggressor is crushed? Mr. Ford is just one year (past Aug. 15, 1914,) too slow. I had outlined a solution and cited the reason in a letter appearing in the Tribune, Aug. 15, 1914, "The Cause of the War," and signed "European Federation." If the power of the press had acted on that suggestion and the neutrals had acted as suggested the aggressor would have been stopped before any damage had been done or lives lost. Dig up that letter and reproduce it and write an editorial on it.

FOR BRONCHI) IS, COUGHS, BRONCHIAL ASTHMA AND WHOOPING COUGH

The first 300 persons calling at Shandy's Court House Pharmacy will be entitled to a regular 50c bottle of Schiffmann's New Concentrated Expectorant for half price (25c) by presenting the coupon below, properly signed.

stance if it does not give perfect satisfaction and even more—if it is not found the best remedy ever used for any of the above complaints.

This excellent remedy is sufficiently concentrated so that 50 cents' worth when mixad at home with Bimply ono pint of granulated sugar and one-half pint of water (according to printed directions) makes a whole family supply (128 teaspoonsful) while bottles of the old, regular, ready-made kinds, of doubtful merit, and without a guarantee, usually average 20 to 32 teaspoonsful.

It is pleasant to take ar.-J children are fond of it.

(or more often stood) and once asked a man pleasantly to throw his away, as it was almost under my nose and very* sickening. "What Throw that away? Well, I guess not!" was his answer.

My work keeps me downtown evenings and I ride on many lines. The habit prevails on all, in every part of the city and at all hours. Last night I saw a man light his cigar and throw away the match just as he stepped on the car. Then he puffed at it just often enough to keep it alive. You could smell it twenty feet away. More than once I have seen a man calmly sit down to smoke on a car, and "butts" are common.

The ventilation in closed cars is utterly insufficient at, best, and with a long winter ahead the prospect is pretty dready for daily riders who are used to good air in their homes and to whom impure air brings nausea and headaches. Please keep up the good work until the law is enforced against smoking and the sickening stench of "dead cigars."
