PEOPLE might take more stock in Secretary Carlisle's financial theories if lie liad shown greater business capacity in managing the financial affairs of the government. He figured out a surplus where there will be a deficit of $60,000,000. Even with the income tax is as he counted it, the deficit would have been from $30,000,000 to $10,000,000.

ELI W. Brown, editor of the Frankfort Crescent, died Sunday afternoon. He had been in the newspaper business for thirty years at Ft Wayne, Columbia City and Frankfort, and was a leading Democratic politician of the old school. His contemporaries speak of him as an honest, fearless and able exponent of the principles in which he believed. As a business competitor he was agreeable and fair, and as a writer neyer descended into the slimy depths of "personal journalism," so frequently indulged in by men of small calibre and mean uiinds.

THE college graduates that can tell just how to run the government, give the proper solution to all social problems and solve all other knotty problems, will soon have a chance to try the realities of life. The world wears a roseate hue to them and 'tis a pity that the illusion be destroyed, but it will surely go. The first great question the boys will have to tackle after graduating is getting a job, and it may be no easy task, for the world may not readily take the graduates estimate of his abilities, but may want a practical denionstration of his capacity and endurance in the ordinary pursuits of life before a permanent position is forthcoming. Energy, continuity, honesty and average ability will win success in any line, so one need not be discouraged. -V

SU JTIIERE is a movement on foot to raise a fund for the benefit of Mrs. Ex-Governor Chase. Rev. Z* T. Sweeney, of Columbus, is a leader in the movement. At the •close of his sermon at Columbus Sunday he read the following statement concerning the late Gov. Ira J. Chase: "Notwithstanding his long and'valuable service bo his State, the country at large and the church, Ex Governor Chase left his family in actual need. This information will be most distressing to thousands of friends and admirers of the late Governor. For more than twentyfive years his wife has been a confirmed invalid, confined nearly all of the time to her bed, and for fifteen years has been totally blind. Gov. Chase was a man of large and warm heart, and in his time gave away thousands in charity. In his young manhood, when the Nation called for defenders he offered himself and bore his full share of the great conflict. Although he was a party man he had many friends in both parties. There are hundreds of large hearted men in Indiana 1$, who doabtless would be happy to give to I belp create a fund to make the last days of his widow comfortable. To let her remain destitute would be a shame on the good name of the State he served so long and well. OnnextSnnday night, June 2,1 will preach a memorial sermon on

Governor Chase, how he lived and how he died and start a fund for the support of his widow."

Governor Chase had many warm friends in Hancock county among the old soldiers and he was popular with both Republicans and Deniocrats He probably had no warmer friend in this county than HAH. Morgan Chandler Ex Senator who was in the State Senate while Mr. Chase wa* Lieutenant Governor and Governor. He sayt that Mr. Chase was always fair and honorable in all'rulings regardless Of party and bad the esteem and confldehce of every member of the Senate, Hancock couuty will a'jftl Itr q^ot-i to the Chase memorial fund..

SINCE wheat has been rising so rapidly in price in the Chicago market a large number of people are getting the bucket shop speculative fever and buying margins on the wheat market. These lambs who rush in thinking that they cannot fail to win as wheat is going up all the time will soon be shorn and lose all the money they iDvest. It will be observed that while wheat goes up every day it always drops back a cent or two sometime during each day and that is where suckers are caught. A man invests what he has in margins and when the daily drop comes he is called on for margins but having all his money up he simply drops out of the game and loses all he has bet for that is the proper. name. A man ignorant of this business has as good achanceto win money by going in and bucking the three card monte game against sharpers as he has in playing against the Chicago gamblers in the wheat market.

SECRETARY Carlisle collected $75,000 income tax and paid out $100,000 for the collection. It is in perfect harmony with Mr. Carlisle's other financial transactions for Uncie Sam. Does it harmonize with his financial theories?

Wecnesday just before 2 o'clock, the fire wagon and firemen dashed around on Pennsylvania street and a large number of citizens followed, thinking there was a fire. It was simply a novel advertising scheme to draw men to the sale of the Selman house recently bought by the school board—it worked, too. G. T. Randell said it was worth $40 to the board, ps he went around to the fire and then bid on the house, running it from $555 to $595, when Auctioneer Pauley knocked it off to Ham Strickland. The principal bidders were Ham Strickland, G. T. Randall and Montgomery Marsh. The house sold at a fair price both to the board and Mr. Strickland. Both parties did well.
