MR. HUGHES' TASK.

A Tribune dispatch yesterday saici, that Judge Hughes would decline all Invitations to speak on his forthcoming tour and would 'imit himself to his ijen set speeches. This may be the

Judge's wish, but he. will probably find public interert so insisient ihat he will

lbe

required to change his program. A

s* ^.-friend of Judge Hughes explains his |»in«ntal attitude by saying that the ,* f^eatest obstacle to populai acclaim it ^or the judge is hi.^ "avoidance of the ^,'mob." Judge Hughes is ssid to haVe j" Alittle appetite for the noise and racket

I*"-,

r\Ojt a campaign, his whole' career has itefen such a3 saved him from contact ^T&th tile crowd and the direction of xi^ his, mind ha? been away ftpiii? popular

Influence The appointment of his suc•wttessdr by President Wilson the Mher $ay emphasized this angle of, Judge "Hughes' character- j. i \When Judge Hughes was. governor of

N«w York tie vetoed a mea^tite establishing two-cent fare for the,..railroads Of the Empire state. Wheij'^ Judge Clarke was a practicing attorney in Cleveland he ran for United States fcaetiator on a platform demanding a !.two-cent faro rati? for Ohio. Now "^Ju^dge Clarke succeeds Judge Hughes ,:On^the United States supreme bench. -^•Doubtless neither Judge' Hughes-nor jjudge Clarke was named to the federal ^supreme bench because of his attitude tm lower railroad passenger rates. Yet cohtrast has a certain significance.

After all. Irhe mental attitude of the supreme jfc ?v ',jeourt is changing. President Wilson -^1 lifts now made three appointments to the court. "The last two have been of notably active in

SETTING AN EXAMPLE.

fThe Bell Telephone company sets an vf"? -example for employers generally in reient orders issued relative to the national guard. All members cf the guard ?n the company's pay roll, when called i jupdnto perform military duty, are bjerfcafter to be given leaves of absence %ith full pay.

One vastly encourag'ng fact in con-st-11 taction with recer.t preparedness discussions Is the changing attitude of in-

toward ths.national guard. The organization oj the militia is looked upon with new respect. Some of its enemies of a few years ago are among ^its strongest frknds -now.-

The point has been envphasized often that large employsrs of men havp it in their power to encourage or to hamper the guard by the attitude they assume toward it. Enaouragement of their men to enlist and generosity toward them when called upon to perform military dut'es will go far toward making, the guard ,'r various states .fitly, representative of American patriotism srd American strength of character to defend "the nut'On's rights.

Many employers should follow the example of the B*2ll Telephone company in this-respect.

yiTHERE ARE THE RECRUITS?

The Chicago Tribune, under- the editorial caption "Recruiting falls Flat," says: "Most of the organizations of our armed citi?eni-y are consiierably bplow war strength though the order has gone forth to recruit them full. Unfortunately the system of compulsory volunuteering or voluntary compulsion which Mr. Wilson relies upon is not working. Some thirty thousand men are in Texas and New Mcxico doing their bit, but that fact is not inspiring any rush of men to help carry the common burden. "There is nothing now ii this. The volunteer system has always worked that way when volunteers were most needed. Only the doctrinaire and the shirk should be found among its defenders. The sense o^ justice and the intelligent public spirit of the American people should make an end of an unjust and inefficient system. We need ilniversal trp.'ning and service and we need it now."

The Tribune maker a good "preparedness" argument out of the situaion, but it doeti not get to the real truth of the matter.

Enlistment? are slow, but why? Here is the reason. The" rank and file of American citizens do not want war with Mexico. They do not feel that Mexico's offense against this nation, given as it has been by a 'Reorganized, unstable government, has been such ajs woujd justify a war ot reprisal on our part with all :ts attendant horrors. The acts of a handful of outlaws should not bring two peoples to slaughtering each other and the bulk ,of Americans concur in President Wilson's attitude, that the're. will not bei.Ayar with Mexico if he can avoid it.

The people do not feel that our liberties, our citizens, or-e» -our possessions are in jeopardy, they do not feel that*a real foe Vorks below the border, they do noi! feel that there Is real alarm from war. Which is why they do not enlist and 'tis better so.

HANGING ON.

The progressives of Indiana are going to have their state convention July 20, and. indications point to an assemblage that wih have it all over the Chicago convention for real enthusiasm and a demonstration of earnest determination and purpose.

The interest in the convention has been intensified by the agencies which have been at work to suppress it. The stand-pat machine of Indiana has been working hard and without ceasing to suppress the spirit of the determined leaders. The macnine engineers got nine progressives to indorse Hughes and Fairbanks ^nd these nine constituted themselveb a committee to get the rest of the progressives to follow. National Committeeman Dye advocated support of Hughes and made a speech almost assuring that. Fairbanks would be thrown off the ticket because Hughes wanted, the- progressive votes and knew he had ti have them.

Then Dye was fired because he voted officially at Chicago to indorse Hughes and Fairbanks anc1 present indications aro that the progressives of Indiana will 'not indorse anybody's candidate. They declare they are fighting for-a principle and the more anybody's candidate. They declare they are fighting for h. principle and the more anybody tries to suppress them the more determined they fight.

But while Mr. Hughes was sending out his personal appeals to the progressives everywhere to support him, pointing out that parly success could not come except through a reunion, he named "Jim" Hemenway as the Indiana man o i his campaign committee. Of all men he could have made no selection that would red-flag, progressives like Hemenway

So it seems ihat rhc progressive state convention in Ind'.anapolis on July 20 is going to be a convention worth attending, just as a demonstration by alert citizens who arti fighting for a' principle that they know is worth while. The trouble with the moose is it never knows when l\ is licked.

Wedntwday, July 19, 1916^

Astrologers read this as an uncertain day. Although1 Saturn, the sun arid Neptune are friendly, Mars rules powerfully for evil.

It is not a fortunate time for soldiers or for anything connected with military movements.

The aspect is unfavorable for engineers or construction in which iron and steel are used.

As the adverse aspects of Mars have the tendency to make men brave to the point of fooihardiness, it is wise to be unusually cautious while this configuration prevails.

Surgeons and hospitals have a sinister sign today. Accidents and injuries may b£ more numerous than 'usual.

Politicians should bjfe talrly lucky today. They are supposed to be-able to enlist support from persons in power.

Jupiter is in a place read as promi sing peace -wit ail—Eu ro e a n powers, even though there may be clashes. The nation's stars presage many anxieties and much alarm, however, from new 'quarters.

Forgery is likely to cause a sensation in official circles.. The planets are held to indicate a tendency for moneymadness to develop among persons, dealing with the government.

Surprises in the national political campaign are prophesied especially after the middle of August.

Italy Russia and Persia as well as •Germany will be torn by internal disorders in the autumn, the seers declare. The outlook for Russia is especially good ifor change, improvement in government methods and the uplifting of the people.

There is a sign presaging remarkable organization on the part of women and a growth of power for those who are interested in public affairs. New York will benefit.

Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of a profitable year, if they are careful in conducting their affairs. They should avoid litigation

Children born on this day may be quick, nervous and inclined to irrita- i bility. These subjects of Cancer also have Leo characteristics. They should be successful in life.

M'CULLOTJGH CASE TO PAHKE.

Attorneys for Accused Mar Set Aside Order of Special Judge. Attorneys Walker and Blankenbaker, representing Oscar McCullough, charged with murder, Monday afternoon succeeded in having the order of Special Judge Gerdink set aside and the case ventied to Parke county. Some time ago they appeared before Judge Gerdink with a petition 1 for a change of venue and suggested that the case be taken to Clay county, McCullough's home. This was objected to by the state and the court named Sullivan county.

McCullough is held for the death of William Montgomery in the Montgomery saloon at First and Poplar streets early last spring and the serious injury of Charles Montgomery, a son of the dead man. When the case was called before Judge Pulliam in the Circuit Court the defense asked for a change of venue from the judge and Judge Gerdink was selected. Later it was asked that the case be taken from the county on account of an alleged feeling against McCullough.

Attorney Austin Sweet has returned from his annual fishing trip to Eel river and reports an exceptional catch o£ sunfish and -carp. Mr. Sweet has not divulged his secret regarding the location of thlE fishing hole nor the kind of bait he used, but 110 one at the court house has questioned the truth of the statement that he had some time and some fish.

"Cudie" Davidson, page in the Circuit Court, who has. been ill for the past week, reported at the court house Tuesday morning' for duty saying- that he felt very well, aside from being weak. Mr. Davidson suffered a".slight breakdown "/'after being overheated ai short time, ago and has been under the care of a physician since.

According to the word being circulated, County Recorder John T. Grace has become an ardent chicken fancier. •At present he Is seeking a "coop" which will fill all of the requirements of the fastidious county official. From his own statements it appears that he will have to consult an expert and have plans and specifications drawn to suit himself so that he can build.

County Assessor Louis P. Seeturger recently received a postal card from Captain Gerhardt Monninger, enroute to the Mexican border wfth the Terre Haute comrfcny of national guards. According to th^ message, the local officer is enjoying himself and there is nq indication of worry.

Attorney Benjamin Blumberg spent last Saturday in showing his intended wife through the various departments in the local court house. The future Mrs. Blumberg made a very favorable impression amor.g the attaches of the courts and the employes in the various offices and they are ready with their congratulations when the wedding ceremony is performed.

Thad Peck, former republican district chairman, of Greencastle, was a visitor in the temple of justice Monday evening. He was In Terre Haute on legal business, and it was reported that the trip had nothing to do with the coming campaign.

Ernest Drake has come forward with a little of the proper spirit and can be seen sharing his "car" with the young women employes "of the court house during the hot evenings. Drake has so far failed to -distribute his good deeds, but then he has a failing, a tender spot In his heart, for the girls in the clerk's office.

IN THE SERVICE OF THE STATE

STORY NO. 13.

"Mary," said Mona Hartley, in a low tone, to her chum, Mary Burnett, "don't look over at once. But there is a man across the street who has been following jls for ten minutes, rve seen htm before, but I can't place him."

Mary laughed. She leaned close to Mona^ "I'll look in a minute," she said. And then: "I know him! His name is Jones—he's a United States secret service man." "Well?" said Mona, flatly. "Mary— what has a secret service man to do with us "That's the secret of it, I suppose!" said M.ar^r. "At any rate, we're likely to find out. You know, Mona—there are people who would say that our way of getting along was very far from being what is should be." "You're right, of course," said Mona. "I'm nervous, I think—that's all." "Well—get over it! He's coming over, and he's going to speak to us. I'm sure! Don't act as if you thought there was anything odd—"

The next moment, indeed, Jones was beside them, hat in, hand, beaming. "Miss Hartley—Miss Burnett!" said Jones. "You don't know how glad I am to see you! I wa^ not certain—it is some time since I have seen anything of you—" "We must be getting old, Mona!" saidi Mary, with a laugh. "If it takes an effort to recognize us." "You're unkind," said Jones, reproachfully. Then all at once his manner changed. "Seriously," he said, "I am extremely anxious to have a talk with you. There is a matter of the gravest importance, in which, I believe, you, and you only, can help me. I wonder if you would come in here with me—and have some tea, perhaps, while we talk?"

And so, a" few moments later, they were sitting with him at a secluded fable. They gave their order he waited until the tea things had been brought, and then he leaned toward them, speaking in a low, confidential tone. "It's my business, as you must know,' he said, "to be aware of a good many things. I understand, very fully— something of your lives. I know that you have no incomes—that the comfort in which you live you must supply yourselves. It will be simpler if you will believe that I could, if I chose, give you a very, complete summary of

everything that you have done for a good many months!" "I think you had better come to the point, Mr. Jones," said Mary. "I agree!" said Jones. "I will be frank, then. YW have been able more than" once, to get 'the best of men who have fancied themselves extremely clever. I want you to undertake the task once more—and this time, if you succeed, you will place me under the heaviest of obligations—and you will, what is far more important, do a great service to the United States—a service so important that it would be impossible to overestimate it! "This country, as you must know," he said, "dep'ends for its security against attack, in a very large measure, upon its coast defenses. To put the matter briefly, a secret that is vital seems about to fall into the hands of a foreign power—and of that foreign power, moreover, which is most likely to use its knowledge against us!" "Oh!" said Mona. "But how could we help—?" "What has happened is this," said Jones. "A man named Hawkins, let us say, was in a position to make tracings of certain drawings—pians, and so on. He was trusted—he hetrayed his trust. He made the tracings he has sold them to a mar. whom 1 shall call Mr. X. Mr. X. occupies & position of responsibility. It would be Impossible to bring a charge against him without proof of the most definite sort. I am sure of my facts—but. I cannot prove them. I know that. is a spy of the most dangerous sort, but 1 am almost alone in my knowledge." "Where is he?" asked Mary. "I am telling you everything," said Jones. "He w'.ll be on. his way to Halifax within a few hours. He will sail from there on a liner that makes a call at Rotterdam. I am certain of this— and that tho plans will be with him. Now—I want you to sail on the same steamer, as I shall do myself. I want you to help me to recover those plans." "Let's do it," saic. Mary. "We'd be doing something for our country, Mona! Wouldn't that be worth while?"
