The fight on graft in public affairs is right and should be pushed to the limit. Too great care cai: not be exercised to prevent the blasting and expensive influences of graft and grafters. Scarcely less to be feared is the demagogue. In fact we do not know but that he is even worse than the grafter, for he comes in the guise often of a reformer, and so deceives the people. A grafter is, perhaps, more easily detected than a demagogue. Sometimes both evils are united in the same individual, but the demagogue who is free from the charge of graft, can secure a standing that gets a hearing for the advocacy of ideas oftentimes more dangerous than stealing. Let the well tested institutions of our form of government be guarded against demagogues as jealously as our treasury against grafters and thieves. "The people of Indiana should be deeply interested in all the acts of the Legislature.

While there are many unworthy applicants for office, no doubt, still we do not like to see high officials who have appointive power, cast insinuations against all applicants generally. We insist that capable men may just as appropriately aspire to the subordinate positions as the higher officials to the higher officials to the higher positions. One of the important duties of President-elect Wilson is to appoint men to subordinate positions. There will be many

good

men

aspire to such places, and we hope he will be able to select the bestwithout casting unnecessary aspersion on any of them. Let him give a hearing to them all, just as if he, too, was in fact as well as in claim, one of them. If he can not give all a position let him, like the late President MeKinley, at least pin a carnation on the disappointed applicant's coat lapel. That will be much better than to insinuate against them.

Stock, Poultry and Produce Market The hog market has been about the same for the past week. Several classes of hogs, after a little fluctuating back and forth as the supply was large or small, stand at about the same figures that they did a week ago. There is nothing to indicate that there is a big supply of hogs in the country. The producers of hogs can reasonably rely upon the prices remaining firm at about present prices.

The cattle market has shown a slight decline in most classes in the past thirty days. The sheep market, though strong and active for awhile, the price has dropped back a little and is now steady.

The horse market has surprised the buyers by becoming inactive all at once. The local buyers have a bunch of horses which they have been feeding for a week because of no buyers.

Poultry remains about the same, except in the demand for- turkeys, which are scarce. Eggs are plentiful at 20 to 22 cents. Butter has been scarce and some big consumers have had to advertise 30-cent offers to get demand supplied. The price, however, disclosed many producers ready to sell.

I GRAVE OFFENSE

If there is anything in the world that should be made of the choicest ingredients and with the utmost scientific skill, it is our medicinal preparations which can be instrumental for health and happiness, or detrimental and injurious, and it is a deplorable fact that people are sometimes persuaded to accept a substitute for Scott's Emulsion when those recommending such substitutes know the difference, but for their mercenary profit, disregard or ignore the consequences of their act.

The popularity of the curative benefits of Scott's Emulsion has inspired many imitations, most of which contain alcohol, wines or ppr iates to please the palate and stimulate the spirits, but physicians everywhere insist on the purity and wholesomeness of Scott's Emulsion, knowing that it contains only pure wholesome cod liver oil, made palatable and predigested by scientific process in sunlit, sanitary laboratories. jan30-feb27
