away from his presence. "Does no man condemn thee? Neither do I. Go and sin no more."
How hateful must sin have appeared
to that Judean woman after she had heard that voice!
Now Of course this Chicago woman was a
sinner. There can be no excuse for her
bad life. And yet who knows? It may be some "respectable" citizen who walks the streets of Chicago gave her the first impulse toward the broad road of ruin.
Moreover Would it shock you were I to say
THIS WOMAN WAS JUDGE GO
ING'S SISTER?
Yes, he is her brother. Kipling tells us that Julia O'Grady
and the colonel's lady are sisters under
their skin. And It Is so. Humanity is
kin. And men and women are brothers and sisters. It would better have be
hooved this unjust judge to have defended this woman, against whom society seems leagued; to have helped her, to have spoken words of hope and
sympathy.
But instead He sent her weeping and wringing
her hands to prison. Instead of helping her HE FINED HER FIVE TIMES THE USUAL SUM OF
BLOOD MONEY. And when her tears are dried
When she thinks of the hard words
of the unjust judge, her heart will harden, and she may follow his advice and go over the verge, more sinned
against than sinning.
Man, whoever you areBe careful lest you help to thrust
some weak and suffering sister down Into the depths where there is no hope or rescue.
And as for this haughty judge, so Is
eternal justice that
In the day of the great assize it may
be more tolerable for the poor Chicago woman than for him who cruelly con
demned her.
IS THOMAS MARSHALL THE Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde of Indiana politics? The people of Lake county, both republicans and democrats, have a right to ask that Question in view of the remarks which Mr. Marshall tyade.at Crawfardsville last Wednesday. The CrawTordsville Journal in a half page display asked Mr. Marshall the following question when he came to that city. "Could you, as a trustee of Wabash college, ask the people of Montgomery county to endorse you and your plans, which will keep the college, the city and the county under the blight of brewery saloons?" Another question which Mr. Marshall was asked, was: "How can you ask the parents of these boys, for whose welfare you are in a degree responlble, to support you and your program of leaving the saloons in the third ward? (Notorious as a red light district)." Now Mr. Marshall Is crafty. It was an occasion for him to be a Mr.
Hyde. He saw that if he appeared in his true or Jekyl role it would cost
him many votes.
Now the democrats of Hammond, Whiting, East Chicago, Indiana Harbor
and Gary have gone to the salonkeepers and whispered, "Sh-sh-sh!
Marshall's all right. He's backed by the breweries. No more blue laws
for us."
Let every person in Lake county, whether he be liberal or for local
option, read Mr. Marshall's answer and ponder over it. "Wabash college Is
not In the campaign."
But that was not a satisfactory answer to the people of that wealthy farming community, so he went a little farther. The farther he went the
deeper he became imbedded in the quicksands of his own flimsy vote-getting
convictions. Now mark you well.
"Temperance," said Mr. Marshall, "is no longer an issue because of the
enactment of the county local option law by the special session of the legislature, which," he declared with pride, "was done with democratic as sistance."
While the democrats and the saloonkeepers of this district are urging their friends to vote for Mr. Marshall, on the ground that he is friendly to their business, Mr. Marshall Is going around in the southern part of the state,
where he knows the sentiment against the saloon is strong, and he Is saying: "The saloon is no longer an issue and the democrats assisted in passing
the county local option law." In other words Mr. Marshall is the smooth, cultured, patron of educa
tion, the Mr. Hyde, in Crawfordsville, but he is another person, the man who, acording to his friends, will wink at the saloons when he gets into
Hammond and becomes Dr. Jekyl.
Fortunately, on account of the fact- that we have daily papers which follow these men, we are able to keep track of them. Mr. Marshall is silly to attempt to fool with the people of this community. He can't flirt with temperance in Crawfordsrille and then come up to Hammond and make
love to the saloons.
Mr. Marshall owes it to the people of Hammond and Lake county when
he comes here to announce from the platform whether he is appearing as
Dr. Jekyl or Mr. Hyde. THE TIMES AS AN ADVERTISING MEDIUM.
THE ATTENTION OF THE THOUSANDS or Times readers is called
to the advertising carried In this issue of The Times. It is the highwater mark for any paper in this part of Indiana. It beats all records even for The Times, which thereby beats Its own records. Owing to the fact that no endeavor was made to place It until this morning, The Times advertising
department was compelled to regretfully decline 140 more inches of ad
vertising for this issue. The wide circulation of The Times and the quality of it3 circulation have caused a steady growth in its advertising patronage
and demonstrated its value as an advertising medium. While its adver
tising rates are much lower than its circulation demands, as may be proven
by inquiry of newspaper directory publishers, they are much higher than
those of other newspapers published in the Calumet region, but merchants
using The Times' columns have discovered that they bring results not ob
tained elsewhere. o o A RADICAL MAY BECOME A TYRANT.
BECAUSE MR. BRYAN is good doesn't mean that he would make the
right kind of a president The will to do good and to be good Is important
uui li rests uaco. ou uie luauameniiu question, wnai is me gOOUT A man
be so constituted to make a fine man, but a mighty poor chief executive. John
Brown and Wendel Phillips were both good men, but what kind of presi
dents would they have made. The radical out of power becomes the tyrant in power as was illustrated by Savonarola in Florence. He had as much
sincerity as Bryan and a breadth of ability and a practical knowledge that
Bryan has never shown. A presidential candidate. Mr. Bryan, needs wis
dom as well as goodness, Mr. Taft has both. THE REPUBLICAN COUNTY TICKET IS A GOOD ONE.
NOT A WORD HAS BEEN uttered against a candidate on the republican county ticket, save the effort made by a democratic organ to blacken
a man's character by dragging his family into politics. This will, as it al
ways does, make him votes however. As far as capability, capacity for do
ings things, for being men of their word; men tried in experience; men who
can point to what they have done with pride, the republican county candi
dates cannot be equalled. There is no reason why a republican should not vote for them. There is no reason why a democrat should not vote for
them. There are democrats who will vote for them. They are satisfied
with the way the county s business is being conducted. There has been
nothing slothful about their administrations. They are justified in asking
for your support.
THE GENTLEMEN who met In Hammond yesterday from different
parts of the Calumet region to diacuss the Bewage problem, will have the
support of the people .therein who hope that they will agree on a plan of
action whereby the question of sanitation can be actd upon soon.

ROBBED IN A SALOON. Morton Conner of Rushvllle, Ind., re

when he came out he did not have a cent.

DEMOCRATS INDORSE SOCIALIST. The German Alliance of Peru, which
consists of more than 800 democrats
who are members of the Marshall club, has Indorsed Robert Duderstadt, the so
cialist nominee for representative from
Miami county. The action of the alliance Is due to Burton Green, democratic nominee for re-election as representative, voting for county option at
the extra session of the legislature.

Liverpool, England, came back to Indiana yesterday to aid In the republican

Freddie Weeks resents the popular belief that he will be defeated by Al Wolgast at Vernon Saturday afternoon., "There's only one man of my weight in the world who has anything on me, and he Is Abe Attell," said the Cripple Creek boxer tonight. "I'll slip over a surprise party on some of these wise guys Saturday afternoon." At the betting stands tonight 10 to 6 was being offered on Wolgast to win. while even money was on tap that Weeks would not last twenty rounds. The Milwaukee man made a favorable impression here by the vicious manner in which he fought Webster, and Wolgasfs talk of wanting to fight Attell or Moran Is being taken seriously.
