JOINT DISTRICT TICKET FOR CONGRESS Ralph Mosa • FOR PROSECUTOR James P. Hughes. FOR JOINT SENATOR F. C. Tilden. Some weeks ago, when Mr. Hostetler insisted on voting as he believed right in this state In spite of the representations of a number of Republicans who besieged him ^to cast his vote the other way, it was declared that he was the representative of the people not of his party. Do the Republicans who said this of Mr. Hostetter believe that the same holds true of the United States? Ami if It does hold true what about the president, and the cabinet also, turning the White House into campaign headquarters? It looks strange to many people.

Last week we quoted from the Marion Gazette a statement In regard to a lie the Marion Chronicle was hatching In that town. The Chronicle pretended to have interviewed fifty saloon keepers in that city and found them all for Marshall. The Gazette the next day covered the same ground and found that few of the saloon men had been visited at all, and that most of those seen had been misquoted. Saturday the story was run as a supplement to most of the Indiana Republican newspapers, ft is a cheap trick and should meet its reward.

Had a Close Cull. Mrs. Ada L. Croom, the widely known proprietor of the Croom Hotel, Vaughn, Miss., says: "For several months 1 suffered with a severe cough, and consumption seemed to have Its grip on me, wtien a friend recommended Dr. King’s New Discovery. I began taking it, and three bottles affected a complete cure.’’ The fame of this life saving cough and cold remedy, and lung and throat healer Is world wide.

COST OF SPECIAL SESSION. •' Up to last Sa'urday night Governor Hanly’s unnecessary and partisan special session of the legislature had Cost $22..'00. The cost of the special

elections to fill vacancies was about

A local preacher in his sermon Sunday night compared Governor Hanly to Moses. Will the preacher kindly quote the passage that tells about Moses attempting to bribe public officials? When did Moses try to knife the friends that made him? When did Moses draw a salary from ti e people and then get the legislature to hire another man to do part of the work so Moses could deliver Chautauqua lectures at $200 per? If this Hoosier Moses would get lost in the wilderness for about 40 years It would hr ng no end of joy to 90 per cent, of the Republican politicians of this state.—New Castle Democrat.

$20,000 more. Total cost to taxpayers np to last Saturday, $42,500. And that Is only a part of it All this expense was put upon the people by Republican politicians in an effort to get the Republican party out of a hole. But the effort failed. The Republican politicians only succeeded in digging the hole deeper. The people of Indiana are not in a humor to be either exploited or trifled with. THE ROOSEVELT-HEAR9T COMBI-

THE BASTILLE’

Men and Methods In the Famous Old French Prison. The Bastille ns n prison was apparently hotter kept and cleaner than either Bleotre or the Chatelet, and Imprisonment within its walls did not. It would seem, dishonor the prisoner or his family. A great many prisoners were charged as mad, and under this elastic term the* violent maniac, the ambitious madman, the young spendthrift, the megalomaniac, the readier for the philosopher's stone or the secret of perpetual motion —all these tiresome persons might be and were Included. How, then, did these prisoners live? In the underground cells or dungeons, as In the cells in the towers, the prisoners were on bread and water, as a rule. In the other rooms In the main building three meals were served a day. with drinkable wine—‘‘vin potable.” In certain cases, according to the quality and distinction of the prisoner, he might supplement the meager furniture of his prison and get a provision of books. Very favored persons were allowed their own servant If he would consent voluntarily to undergo confinement. Voltaire began to write the "Henriade” ns prisoner in the Bastille; Abbe Morellet of the Encyclopedia speaks of the great fortress as the cradle of his fame, but we most rememlier that it was perhaps not advisable to say much about the Bastille when you were still living within its walls and that, as M. Mouin has reminded us, "the old Spartans offered sacrifioe-s to fear.” Prisoners, moreover, had to sign on their release an elaborate declaration by which they swore never to divulge, directly or Indirectly, anything they might have learned as prisoners concerning the Bastille. Mrs. Frederic Harrison in Nineteenth Century.

Ilearst seem to he on very friendly | terms—so friendly, Indeed, that no great stretch of the Imagination is needed to make one think that they are working together for Taft in pursuance of a personal understanding. This shows to what extreme means, regardless of their character, Mr. Roosevelt is willing to go to help the man that he forced on the Republican party by using the power of hU office. Two years ago, however, Mr. Rooaevelt eent Elihu Root, a member of his cabinet, into New York state especially to attack Hearst Among other things Secretary Root said in a public speech: "Mr. Hearst is guided by the turmoil of Inflamed passions, selfish motives and 13 NOT GUILTLESS OF McKINLEY'S DEATH. What public servant, honored by the people's trust, has he not assailed by vile and vulgar epithets? * * It is not the spirit of Washington and Lincoln; It Is the eplrit of malice for all and charity for none; it Is the spirit of anarchy, of communism of Klshlneff and BallyBtok.” But now Mr. Rooaevelt seems willing to accept Hearst’a help In the campaign. Mr. Bryan is fortunate In having Hearst's opposition. THE WATSON FINANCES. Who finances James E. Watson’s

A Feat For Blondin. “Speaking of the straight and narrow path,” said n congressman, “reminds me of a story about a man I knew in Chi< >go who stayed very late at a dinner at the rlub. When he came out he started to walk In the middle of the street. ‘“Hey. John.’ said a friend who met him as he was making the best of his way along the car tracks, 'why don’t you walk on the sidewalks?’ “‘Walk on the sidewalks?’ snorted John. ‘Do you think I’m BlondinT’’— Saturday Evening Post. Get Tired Quick. A farmer hired a hand from town. The first morning the new hand went to work he accompanied the farmer Into the hay field. They put on a load and hauled It to the barn. By the time It was unloaded it was 9 o’clock. “Well,” said the new hand from town, “what will we do now ?” ‘ What will we do now?” roared the farmer. “Why, we’ll go after another load of hay!” “In that case,” said the new hand from town, “l will resign.” Pjt pad the Lava.

campaign? Is It the steel trust, In which Dan G. Reid of the Indianapolis Star, Republican state organ, is a shining light? Is it the ship subsidy graft combination? Is it the Standard Oil company? Does help come from Joe Cannon, who, while a member of Congress on $5,000 a year, has man aged to make $2,000,000? Can James A. Hemenway, who entered congress twelve years ago a poor man and is now reputed to be rich, spare a little for Watson? At any rate, where did (and does) he get it? It is said that his nomination cost him between $50,000 and $100,000. There was a scandal In the Republican slate convention about the purchase of delegates. There was scandal in many places, notably Fort Wayne, Anderson, Muncle, Terre Haute, South Bend, Marlon and Evansville, about the election of delegates, and It was said that “money flowed like water.” Where did It come from? Who put It up? Watson says he is a poor man. If so, who are the people who are backing him? And why are they hacking him? TRAVELS OF THE HEIR-APPOINTED A Chicago dispatch, speaking of the present pilgrimage of Crown Prince William, says: Judge Taft is traveling in high state. He has a special train, two Pulimaos, a buffet car and a baggage car. He enjoys the constant services of a valet, a physician, a masseur, and a special press agent. Of course no man in the world has spent so much money in the past in traveling as has the former •ecretary of war. but It was then the money of the people and no one will accuse him today of being as lavish with public funds as he was when he had control of them. Yet as a mere matter of curiosity we would like to question exactly how special trains and a complete retinue of courtiers are being paid for by a man who rather boasts that in ail his adult years he has had nothing but the salaries that friendly politicians have secured lor him. Just how expensively Judge Taft traveled when he was secretary of war with the people paying the bills may be seen by his last Journey to Cuba. He was gone three weeks and the cost la said to have been $70,000 for the 1 expenses of himself, his servants, retainers, sword bearers, almoners, eta. Surely a strenuous “Three Weeka,"

TAFT ROOSEVELT AND THE “SIN ISTLR MONEYED INTERESTS." In his Foraker letter—the letter li which he tries to show how superlot Taft is to everybody except himself— President Roosevelt says: “The great and sinister moneyed In terests, which have shown such hos Ullty to the administration and now t< Mr. Taft, have grow-n to oppose th< administration on various matters no 1 connected with those which mark th< real point of difference.” The point that Roosevelt attempts t< make is that “the great and sinistei moneyed interests” are against Taft He knows that this is not true. In stead of "hostility” toward Taft thes* Interests are all supporting him In thii ■ campaign. And no one knows it bettoi! than Roosevelt himself. Taft’s wholt campaign Is being managed by “tin great and sinister moneyed interests.' Sheldon, Cromwell, DuPont, Harriman Mo*.an. Rockefeller—all of them art tm Taft. During the Republican na ttonal convention E. H. Gary, the beat tt the steel trust, was in Chicag-i work

Ing day ar 1 night for Taft's nomina tlon, and he was only one of the ”C! millionaires” that were present for thi same purpose. And early In Septem her, when Taft’s campaign in OhU was opened for him by Hughes anc Beveridge at Youngstown, the stee trust showed its "hostility” in the fol lowing manner, as reported in tht press dispatches: The commanding feature of the da; was the parade that preceded thi • peaking In Wick Park. There were t faw over 12,000 men in line. Of thesi more than 10,000 came from the stee mills which form the chief and almos' the sole Industry of the city and sub urbe. They were the employes of thi Republic Iron and Steel company, thi Youngstown Sheet and Tube company and the United States Steel corpora tlon, better known as the steel trust Supplied with uniforms at the expensi of these companies, the tollers pre •ented a striking appearance as thej marched past the reviewing stand. Be cause of the opening a shut-down ol the mills was ordered until next Mon day and the occasion made a holiday la that the kind of "hostility” tka' Rooaevelt talks about?

WATSON’S ADVICE TO FARMERS In a speech In Bloomington on Sept Bth Jam**s E. Watson. Republican can didate for governor, said: "If this Is a panic the farmers ol Monroe county ought to fail on theii knees and pray to God Almighty U continue the panic forever.” Does anyone believe that a man whe can talk like that is fit to be governot of Indiana•’ What sort of an opinlot about farmers does Watson have! Does he believe that they rejoice ovei the misfortunes of their fellow-men! Doea he think that they would pray that want and hunger continue in hun dreda of thousands of homes, filled with industrious men who cannot find work and with w-lves and children who are suffering for the necessities of life! Would Watson have the farmers pray that business remain paralyzed 1b thousands of towns and cities through out the land? Does Watson believe that the farmers do not know that their prosperity Is linked with the prosperity of all? Janies E. Watson won’t do. STRANGE BEDFELLOWS. Evidence accumulates from day tc day that President Roosevelt and W R. Hearst have entered into a cam palgn arrangement In the Interest ol Mr. Taft. And It was only two years ago that Mr. Roosevelt sent Elihu Root, his secretary of state. Into New York state to say this in a public speech: “Mr Hearst Is guided by the turmoil of Inflamed passions, selfish motives and Is not guiltless of McKinley’s death. What public servant, honor* *1 by the people’s trust, has he not assail ed by vile and vulgar epithets?” And now th* Roosevelt administration seems to like this same MT. Hearst.

WHEN PROSPERITY WILL COME BACK The Republican party is discredited. It has lost the confidence of the people. For these reasons business matters will get worse Instead of better If Taft should be elected. The panic will continue and become a catastrophe. On the other hand: The Democratic party has gained favor. It has the confidence of the people. Its platform Is without a flaw Its candidates are clean and honest. Democratic success means a return of prosperity through confidence begot tea by honest government, by honest officials who represent the people Instead of the predatory special Interests.

The Priceless Gift, f i-K-H-:-:-:-:-: ! i ■!:-i-h-h-

[Origlna! 1 This is a true historical story, but as I give It in story form I think it best to change the names. The main Incidents are given exactly as they occurred in the latter half of the eighteenth century. Alvin Marston. a cabinetmaker, had a son. John, whom the father was bringing up In his business. But the young man was of a very different texture from that of a builder of furniture. He was of an Ideal, dreamy nature and Instead of attending to his duties spent his time In making little sketches. Was there a clean, smooth board or an unpolished desk In the shop there was sure to be a pencil drawing on It which could at once be recognized as a likeness of some of the workmen. Alvin Marston saw some of them and was pleased with them. He was more pleased when he learned that his son had made them and, relinquishing his design of teaching the boy a trade, put him In a way to take drawing lessons. The student improved rapidly, showing sufficient talent to warrant becoming a professional artist Then he fell 111. There being no one In the family to nurse him. a country girl was called In for the purpose. That was long before trained nurses were thought of. Mary Keyes was not made attractive by the uniform that now decorates the nurse. She had no beauty to win the young artist, nor had she mental endowments above her station. She was a plain country girl, nothing more. But John Marston was imaginative. He saw her moving about the room ministering to his comfort, and of the commonplace figure he made a Venus, while the ordinary face in his eyes became a paragon of sweetness. The Invalid recovered and married Mary Keyes. He lived with her several years and had children by her Had it not been for his talents doubtless there would be no especial story In his life. It was only too evident that he was born for a higher life than the one he was lending. His pictures excited the admiration of critics, and the young man grew ambitious. One day he said goodby to his wife and children to go to London to study art. He did not return to them for more than thirty years. The cabinetmaker’s son became a great artlsL In portrait painting he was the only rival to the celebrated Blr Joshua Reynolds. His name, his fame, his praise, were on every lip. He was Invited into the houses of the nobility and was paid enormous sums for painting their portraits. Why did he never return to his family? Who knows? Possibly before he left home the beauties he had himself created had fallen away and he saw the ordinary woman, neither endowed wfth beauty of person nor of mind. Perhaps the scales were removed from his eyes by visions of the women of the capital. One of these after he became famous wove about him a spell. She had a beautiful body and a corrupt soul. There was the same imaginative process in a different form as had moved him In the case of Mary Keyes. Mary had a pure spirit but an ordinary face and figure, on which he had built n thing of beauty. On the woman he met In London, beautiful without and rotten within, he built a superstructure that enthralled hitq. She was the mistress of the greatest sailor of a nation of sailors. She w r as pleased to bewitch the famous painter, but she laughed at his bewitchment He stretched forth his hand to grasp a rose and plucked a thorn. And now comes something more perfect than any of the beautiful creations of the artists. An old man. he returns to the wife and family he has neglected for the greater part of a lifetime. His wife, too, has grown old. She knows of his triumphs and of his desertion of her in heart as well as In person. We may expec t that she will receive him as a stranger, that site will reproach him with his neglect and that she who had the first right to share in his triumphs has been denied them, that, if possible, they would have been given to others— others signally unworthy of them. When the aged invalid rode up to her door she went out with open arms to receive him. He tottered into the house supported by her She spoke no word of reproach. The love he had slighted for more than three decades was still there for him. As she had nursed him in his youth she nursed him in his old age. Again he saw her ministering to him not as a youth. In youth herself with life before them, but as a decrepit old man. The dreams they then dreamed had been far more than realized, but not for her, and they could not now be recalled that she might enjoy them He remembered his triumphs and how unworthily they had been bestowed And yet she was caring for him as tenderly as If be had shared them with her. A poet has created a fancy of a peri asking for admittance to heaven and denied unless she will bring a gift most acceptable. She goes back to earth and brings various gifts, all of which are rejected At last she takes a tear from the eye of a repentant sinner. 1 in's is the gift, the one gift, by which she may attain a dwelling with the blessed May not the neglected wife have seen that tear In the eye of the man who had so shamefully deserted her? Then was a heaven opened to both with which the plaudits of the heath en throngs of London could not Ik? compared Though the past could not be recalled, what remained of the fu tuie was of heaven’s own kind LAURENCE FOSTER CHURCH.
