CONSIDER THESE FIGURES.

The current number of the Indiana Bulletin of Charities and Correction, Issued by the Indiana Board of State Charities, contains a report for the nine months ending June 30, 1908, the figures relating to thd Institutions under the supervision of the board, including the four hospitals for the insane, the school for feeble-minded, the soldiers’ home, soldiers' and Sailors’ orphans' home, the village for epileptics, the state schools for the deaf and for the blind and the five penal and correctional institutions. The maintenance expenses of these institutions for the nine months make a total of 11,392,304.52, divided as follows: SALARIES AND WAGES.! 517,778.41 Subsistence 384,327.33 Clothing .... 63,580.70 OFFICE, DOMESTIC AND OUTDOOR EXPENSES. 357,114.81 Ordinary repairs 69,503.27 STota! $1,392,304.52 The above figures are rather striking. They show that for nine months of this year the state has paid on acoount of the above named institutions the sum of $874,893.22 for salaries, Wages, office, etc., expenses, while in the same time there was paid for food and clothing for all of the state’s charges the sum of $447,908.03. In Other words, only half as much money wap spent for the inmates of the institutions as was spent in the way of salaries, etc. Did the inmates get toe little or the officials too much?

STANDARD OIL WORKING FOR TAFT.

The trusts and monopolies are working with all their for Taft and Sherman. The Standard Oil company Is as busy as the rest of them. The following article, which is reproduced from the Gary Evening Times, a Tsjft paper, which printed it under big headlines, shows one line along which the Standard is working: (Special to The Times.) Whiting, Ind., Sept 14. —Positive declarations have been adduced that the Standard Oil company, victims of Judge Landis’ $29,000,000 fine, will support the republican candidates for national office in this year's campaign. The information was received yesterday by a Times representative from a

relTaETe source ancffs absolutely ofthe utmost importance to local office-seek-ers as it gives them the assurance that they may be carried into power on the strength of the national ticket, at least. Receive Literature. For several weeks, office employes of the Standard Oil company at Whiting have received the issues of Harper’s Weekly, one of the dominant republican papers of the year. Articles of unusual strength, advocating the Taft-Sherman platform and denouncing Wattersonian ideas as advanced by Mr. Bryan have appeared weekly. The campaign, waged by the Harper company has been virile in the extreme and will Influence its readers to a marked degree. There has been no charge made for these papers and the recipients have often refused to accept them from the postoffice, believing that they will some day receive a bill for the subscription. Weeklies Gift of Company. Investigation at the Chicago postal headquarters, through which the Harper magazines pass, revealed the fact that the weeklies are the gift of the Standard Oil company, who have paid a year’s subscription in advance for upward of 200 of their employes. The method of campaign managing has been' kept very secret Until discovered by The Times representative and is a new one in political circles. It Is believed that other corporations will follow the example of the oil interests and . elect their candidates by the distribution of such* sensible campaign literature as that produced by the Harper company.

Labor in Politics, [Eevansville Advocate (Labor.)]

There is a plank in the platform of the Democratic party of such vital interest, not only to the trade unions of the United States, but to all those who labor that too much importance cannot be attached to it. In the event of the election of the Democratic party in November labor, for the first time in the history of this union, will have a bureau solely to look after its interests. It will be dignified by a labor man being made a -cabinet officer, a man of practical knowledge of conditions in the labor world, a man who will be a member of the president's advisory family. This very essential point has been heretofore completely ignored by Republican administrations, who have seemingly felt that labor was not ed titled to distinct and individual recognition. This is but further evidence of . the sincerity of William Jenning* Bryan when he announces as his slo gan “Let the People Rule.” The great wealth producers of this Country surely are entitled to this mnch recognition.- Capital is important, but the man whose efforts have

made (Kls capital surely Is entitled' t» greater recognition in the conduct of tb* affaire of this United States »<«" he has heretofore received. ONE REPUBLICAN THINK* THE PEOPLE CAN BE TRUSTED. D. W. Dennis, “a Republican and a county local optloniat,” of Richmond, in a letter printed in the Indianapolis Star (Republican state organ) doubtless expresses the views of a very large number of other Republicans. He says: ( To the Indianapolis Star: The two leading political parties have agreed in submitting the next step In temperance legislation to the people; their platforms are unmistakable—one for county local option, the other against it and for a smaller unit Their candidates are before the people now asking election at their hands because they either do or do not favor the adoption of a county looal option law. * * The vote, when it is recorded, will correctly represent what the people want. Both parties are very busy just now pressing their devotion to the affirmative answer to Bryan’s question, “Shall the people rule?” There is a fine chance to practlca the affirmative In this matter. What could the legislature, when it meets, do so futile, so almost Insulting to the people’s right to rule as to overhaul this question? Futile, because If the legislature thrashes it out and passes upon it one way or the other the people, if they hold differently, cannot help reversing them, for their ar&lee are in full motion* with bayonets fixed; insulting, because tl;e v%ry legislature itself and the governor in their party conventions have just asked the people what they would like about this very matter. • * „ The legislature, when it convenes, should, if this question comes up, declare at once and unanimously that they have themselves, of their own motion, put it beyond their jurisdiction. I am a Republican and a county local optlonist, but if I were a Democrat and an advocate of the township unit, I would stiH'hold that,the people, having been appealed to to take the matter over into their own hands, deserve to be trusted.
