The Republican editors when they get together to pass resolutions complimenting their Great Men somehow forget Governor Hanly.

The satisfaction that some of the Republican papers profess to feel over the work of the late legislature is not shared by the taxpayers who have to foot the bills.

Now that Marion Butler, once a national leader of the Populist party, is whooping things up for Roosevelt, why isn’t it in order for the Republican editors to say something about the “Poporeps” or the “Repopops”?

Senator Hemenway is going to /stay in Washington indefinitely, the Indianapolis Star announces. Somehow, Hemenway is always finding an excuse for staying away from Boonville these days. That town is hardly lively enough for him since be became senator, with a private yacht at his disposal.

Governor Hanly denounced the late Republican legislature for failing to carry out platform pledges, but the Republican editors indorse the legislature. And the question is, where does this leave Hanly, and where does it leave the editors? It is easy to see where it leaves the Republican party—split wide open.

Just as long as the voters of the state will keep them in power, just so long will the Republican politicians take it for granted that they can be guilty of no extravagance which the people will disapprove by their votes. This fact is illustrated by th« reckless manner in which the late legislature spent the tax-payers’ money. The Republican theory seems to be that if the people like that sort of thing they ought to have a-plenty of it.

Mr. Bryan is entirely right in saying that all of President Roosevelt's popularity in the country is due to his acceptance of certain Democratic contentions and that most of the criticism heaped upon him ia doe to his failure to accept other policies for which the Democratic party stands, and to his insistence upon things that the democratic party denounces. AU o ! which shews that the people are only waiting for a chance to put a real Democratic president in the White House,

THE “CONFUSED” ANTITRUST LAW. It lias been discovered that a oOmma has been omitted from the

new anti-trust law, and that as the law reads in the printed acts it is practically meaningless. - Before it can be made effective the courts will have to insert the comma in its proper place. The first section of the law, to be found on page 490 of the 1907 statutes, reads as follows: “Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Indiana that every scheme, design, understanding, contract, combination in the form of a trust or otherwise, or conspiracy in restraint of trade or commerce * • • is hereby declared illegal,” etc. The comma that is omitted in this clause as printed, should come after the word “conspiracy,” and before the clause “in restraint of trade.” As the punctuation stands now the clause “in restraint of trade” modifies the word “conspiracy” only, whereas the author of the bill says it should modify “scheme” and all the other prohibited things. It was pretty certain that something would happen to the lawsomething that would “confuse” it but no one supposed that the fault would be laid at the door of a poor little comma.

SPEAKING ABOUT NERVE. The auditor of the Clover Leaf railroad, W. D. Tnoker, made revelations before the state tax board the other day that perhaps he had not expected to make when he appeared to ask for a redaction in the assessment of his road. He was telling the board about what a hard time the railroads were having to get along, and complained about the general depression of the railroad business under present conditions.

In response to questions put to Tim by Parks Martin, the Democratic member of the board, Mr. T ucker ad mi tted that the railroads jad contributed to the election of the Republican administrations in state and nation. In answering he inquiries of Mr. McArdle, another member of the board, Mr. Tucker stated that T. P. Shouts continues to serve as president of lis road at a big salary while acting as chairman of the Panama canal commission at a still bigger salary. Mr. Tucker related how lis company had raised the wages of its shopmen 15 per cent; that if negotiations under way were successful, enginemen would “probably get $40,000 a year more”; and that the trackmen “were restless :or an increase of 10 or 15 per cent.”

Truly, Mr. Tucker told a pathetic tale. The road had helped the Republicans, had paid a big salary to a president who was drawing a bigger salary from the United States treasury on another job, and either had or “probably” would increase the wages of certain employes. For all of these lardships it wanted compensation ! rom the people of Indiana in the way of a reduction in Cits taxes. In other words it asked the taxpaying public to pity it for its woes and shoulder expenses which it should pay out of its own revenues.

TO FRIENDS OF THE DEMOCRAT. When you have a legal notice, such as notice of appointment as executor or administratror, final settlement of estate, nonresident notice, notice of ditch or highway petition, or any other legal, notice that the clients themselves control, be sure to instruct your attorneys to have the publication made in the Democrt, otherwise they will take it to papers of their own political faith. Remember The Democrat is fighting your battles and using its best efforts to keep down taxation, and it is your duty to assist it, at least when it costs you nothing to do so, as our prices are usually much less for publishing legal notices than other papers, because they are set compactly, and are not “padded” out to make them as long as possible. Any favors shown us in this way will be greatly appreciated, and we want again to urge you to be sure to instruct your attorneys to have such Sublications made in The Jasper Ounty Democrat.

DON’T DIE AT 45.

Cure the Indigestion Which Is So Liable to Lead to Apoplexy,* Rush of business, eating too fast and too much, excesses of any kind soon result in indigestion. Then when the digestive organs cannot care for the food properly thecoats of the blood vessels inthe brain get little nourishment, become brittle, and finally yield to the fierce blood pressure. One is then said to have a “shock,” to be paralyzed, or to die from apoplexy. People suffering with headache, giddiness, palpitation, sleeplessness, bad taste in the mouth, drowsiness, coated tongue, distress after eating, specks, before the eyes, and any other of the many distressing results of a weakened stomach, should profit by the discovery of Mi-o-na 'Stomach tablets. In recent years the greatest advance in medicine has been in the study of diseases of digestion and nutrition and no other presoription has proven itself of as much value as Mi-o-na. It is relied upon as a certainty today in relieving the worst troubles of digestion and assimilation and making a complete cure. The strongest proof that can be offered in substantiation of the claims that Mi-o-na will cure the worst forms of stomach trouble, cancer excepted, and give immediate relief in indigestion is the guarantee that B. F. Fendig gives with every 50 cent box of Mi-o-na to refund the money unless Mi-o-na oures. A guarantee like this must inspire confidence in Mi-o-na. B. F. Fendig takes the whole risk and the remedy will not cost you a penny unless it cures.

ALL KNOW WHAT THEY ARE.

In no business does experience oonnt for more to both the dealer and the customer than in the implement business. Experience enables the dealer to know the value of goods. He can see at a glance whether they are artistic and will please a discriminating customer; in a word, whether they will satisfy buyers by giving first-class service. The same experience enables him to BUY RIGHT. Then he can SELL RIGHT. It is his larger experience, coupled with his thorough knowledge of the business, that has made C. A. Roberts, the Front street buggy man, so deservedly popular with the discriminating buyers of sightly vehicles. He served his time in a carriage shop way back in the 60s, when an apprentice had to know his business before be conld begin work for himself. He put in seventeen years of his life building and repairing wagons and carriages, and can make every piece in them. He began to sell implements in 1882, and every customer gets the benefit of this long experience every time he shows an article. That is worth something, isn’t it? He sells Studebaker and Page Bros'. Carriages and Buggies, and there are no better, and he has some other makes and styles. Studebaker Wagons, he claims, there are none so good. SUCCESS Return Apron or Litchfield Endless Apron MANURE SPREADERS. They are both all right. McCormick Binders and Mowers.

You are going to need some of these articles this year, and you will always regret it if you do not go and see Roberta and see his goods before yoa buy. Paste thia in your hat so you won’t forget to go. He will do the rest when you land. Don’t forget the place on Front street and the name. C. A. Roberts, the Buggy Man.

The Value of Time.

The hours of a wise man are length ened by hl* ideas as those of a fool are by his passions. The time of the one is long because he does not know what to do with it So is that of the other, because he distinguishes every moment of it with useful or amusing thoughts, or, in other words, because the one is always wishing ft away and other is always enjoying it. We all of us complain of the shortness of time, saith Seneca, and yet have much more than we know what to do with. Though we seem grieved at the shortness of life in general, we are wishing every period of it at an end. The minor longs to be of age, then to be a man of business, then to retire. Thus, although the whole life is allowed by every one to be short, the several divisions of it ap pear long and tedious.—Addison.

Science and Safe Cracking.

To one who has seen a modern s&fe, with Its smooth surface of hardened steel, such as offers an impenetrable front to the shot of a battleship, it seems Impossible that any burglar could force it, and yet we read of safes being cracked often enough. The modern burglar has modern methods. He uses thermite, which is ignited upon the steel and burns its way through, or nitroglycerin, which is squirted in- . to the crack of the door and exploded by an electric spark.—New York American.

Plowing on Side of Hills.

Side hill plowing should always be done so that the water can run off and yet not wash. The way has to be figured out on each field for Itself. But the point to keep in mind is this: Have it so that the water can run off without running fast and without going across furrows and have the furrows, if possible, slightly declining, so the seeping will be done as they run.—Farm Progress.
