RACE IN FOURTH DISTRICT MAY i BE 2-HANDED _ Republican Press Reports Lincoln Dixon Out as Democratic Aspirant. CRAIG STATES ATTITUDE Aancranoement Is made in the republican press of the state that Lincoln Dixon has finally determined be a candidate for the democratic nomination for congress in the Fourth district and Is sending out letters to his friends advising them of that determination. If this statement is authentic it means that the fight for this nomination lies between Dr. J. E. Craig and C. E. Custer, who has been actively seeking the nomination for some time. Whether Ed Eisner of Seymour will file a petition to be placed on the ballot remains to be seen. He is understood to have been waiting to find out whether Dixon would enter the race and is reported to have said that he would now be compelled to undergo a serious handicap owing to the belated expression from Mr. Dixon in event he determined to run. XOT CONCERNED WITH OTHER CANDIDATES. Dr. Craig says that his own candidacy has not been contingent on any other candidate coming in or staying ont of the race, and that he resents tactics that would presume to bid for the organizations, machine or following by any individual for that of any other Individual. He says that the time passed with the enactment of the primary law when these tactics might avail and that when the vote is counted in the May primary the result will be an expression from the people. Dr. Craig calls attention to the fact that he is a farmer in a large way. and has been so engaged for a number of years. That his interests in farming are such as to have inspired the confidence of the farmers generally during the ses-sion-of the last general-assembly, and that to him was intrusted, as a minority member of the house, the responsibility for dealing with such measures as the farmers were most interested in. He presented and made the only speech on the floor of the house in behalf of the farmers' federal loan bill providing for the sale of their bonds and succeeded in obtaining its passage. He was the pioneer in the agitation which resulted in the striking from the present tax law two of the sections which were more vicious than others and which were directed against the farming interest of the state, the first being the one providing for the listing of the property on Jan. 1 instead of March 1. which would have found the farmer with his grain and stock oo hands and before he had had time to dispose of them; the other providing for the listing of his property, all of which is visible and tangible at its full face value and exempting the property of his more fortunate neighbor, who happened to have his investments ip securities-which were to be designated (^tangible. VOTES TO FAVOR LOCAL SELF RI LE. When' the tax measure was submitted for final action, he says, that it was yet so clearly opposed to local self-govern raent that he, when the vote was taken, saw fit to cast his vote against It. He says the fanners are now awake to the fact that they have not received proper representation in congress; that they have too long graciously submitted to lawyer representation because the lawyers have asked for the place. He points out that while Indiana, and particularly the Fourth district, are typical farming communities and the farming interacts represent both In numbers aad Value more than all of the other industries of the state and district combined, yet the present delegation in congress consists of one editor, one merchant and eleven lawyers. C. E. Custer is also running for fh'V nomination as a farmer from Bartholomew county, and is also a lawyer. He says be is a member of the Farmers' association. “I also believe in a better organization for all labor and industry," he says. *‘to the end ihat all may be assured continuous employment and operation at maximum efficiency, and that we may have a progressive reconstruction policj for our country.”

CONFESSIONS OF A BRIDE L . The Poverty of the People Hurt Me. It Was Habitnal Poverty. The thousand inhabitants of the hacienda emerged from their wrecked liahltions to meet Travers and me. They dil not welcome us. They merely tolerated us. The manager of the hucienda was courteous, but not obliging. Evidently the attitude of the Mexicans toward Americans had changed In that particular abode. “Where is Dr. Certeis ?” T asked ns soon as I had replied to the elaborate if not hospitable greetings. Don Jose shook his head with a melancholy expression on his face and in his attitude. “The master is not to be found,” he said very solemnly. “Nor Don Manuel. Nor the Signora Camilla. All—all—have vanished from the earth!” “They have been swallowed up by the earthquake!” came from the lips of a bystander. “Maybe not. Perhaps we can find them,” I said, for I firmly believed that they were all sealed with Bob in, the secret chamber. “Where 1s Mr. Robert Lorimer?” “He was carried off by the bandits —the devils—who attacked this house the day of the earthquake,” Don Jose. “Then you are manager here now? With furl autjjarlty?” I asked. “At your "service, Signora." "Then set your men to digging through that pile of plaster,” I demanded. “Dr. Certeis—Don Manuel and the indy Camilla are burled there. My husband Is there. I am sure of It. Get the men to work,” I pleaded. Again Don Jose shook his head. “There's a secret chamber under the

It was a fortress long ago. You will find you, master safe—alive!” Don Jose shrugged his shoulders. “Tomorrow—the men will work,” he said. "Today—they arc unwilling.” I realized suddenly that Don Jose didn’t cure much about finding his master or any of those who had formerly occniped places of authority at the hacienda. Dr. Travers jumped out of the car and took Don Jose aside and began to argue the ease in his best Spanish I studied the man and the crowd. Don Jose might have been Villa's twin brother from his looks. He was a capable man. He perce'ved what a grand chance he had to set up a nice little government of his own at the hacienda. That was why he couldn't persuade the people to -oiearcli for the master! Probably Certeis had originally employed him because of his ability to control the male Inhabitants of the hacienda. Not more than a fourth of them would ever be loyal to any leader, I decided after a rapid survey of the crowd. I’robahfy some of them were out and out revolutionists, some were Carrimzists, some were followers of one popcicr “general,” some trailed after each new political star. The poverty of the people hurt me.
It was habitual poverty, the poverty of those for whom a government does nothing. The people were so used to their misery that it never occurred to them to resent political exploitation. Theirs was the poverty of an uneducated people—the poverty of the lazy. Everything man uses comes from the soil and is made fit for man's consumption by the work of man’s hands. When men refuse to work, either from physical laziness as It Is developed In hot climates,'or from the mob spirit as developed in Russia, or from false ideas ot ease and comfort as has. happened in more than one civilized country since the war—whenever men refuse to labor they court starvation for themselves and thetr neighbors. I concluded my reverie with
