' THE VALUE OF THE IMMIGRANT.
One of the best evidences of the value of immigration to a country, like this is the fact that Canada, Australia, South Africa and other progressive
countries are realizing that much of our rapid advance is due to the fact that immigration is increasing. These named countries are bidding eagerly for a portion of the thousands who will naturally leave the older countries during
the next few years.
The fact that the number of desirable immigrants is small must not be overlooked -said when a wide-awake country like Australia begins to bid as it is bidding directly to the worthy individual, it means that we are liable to
get fewer desirable men and women and more undesirable.
In Australia the government is making an appeal to the agricultural immigrant. Not only are homesteads offered but the state will finance any
man who will till the soil.
The worth of such immigrants as Australia is attracting cannot be under
estimated. These are the men we need in the United States. They are needed in Lake county. They are not a mob of worthless idlers, they do not consider themselves too proud to work. We may sneer and scowl at them as they get on the street cars and brush against our clothes; they may
not bathe as often a3 we do, but it will pay to give them a moiety of respect at least, for they are doing much good for our country. Where would our factories and our railroads be without them? ( Did you ever stop to ask yourself where we could get men to fill their places? HON. JOHANNES KOPELKE'S CANDIDACY. The news that Hon. Johannes Kopelke of Crown Point is a candidate for United States senator to succeed Hon. James A. Hemenway will be received with interest by the rank and file of democracy in this corner of the state, as well as the republicans. If there is a jurist in Indiana who has had a more honorable career at the bar than Ex-Senator Kopelke, his name would be hard to find. There is not a single name among the candidates for the high office that have been mentioned in connection with the office who would be better qualified than Johannes Kopelke, none better versed in law and all that it means, none with a keener sense of what constitutes the qualifications of the ideal senator; none who is a deeper student of the economic history of this and the other great powers and none who could fill the office better than Mr. Kopelke. There is certainly none who is more respected, regardless of politics in the community In which he lives, than he is and Lake county would indeed be proud if Mr. Kopelke could be honored with the position that friends of his all over the state would like to see him have. & w NO NEED FOR GREAT HASTE.
UP AND DOWN IN INDIANA
Her Small Hand Liked By King Edward
THE CRYSTAL CUP OF LIFE. The poet calls life "crystal chalice." Which la a fine figure.' You can fill a chalice or cup to the brim, and then if you want an overflow you must thrust or drop something Into It.
The amount of the overflow will ba determined by the size of that which you put into the cup. What you get out is of the same quantity as that
which you put In. go is human life.
He who made our earthly vessels of
mortal life filled them even to the brim. Tour earthly chalice holds within it life. Whether you shall have that
life "more abundantly" depends upon
what you put into the vessel. What you get in overflow is measured by
what you put in. For instance
If you put love Into the chalice of
your life, your life will overflow In loveliness. If you put hatred into it, it will overflow in hatred. If you put sin
into your cup or life, sinfulness will
overflow.
In other words, TOU CANNOT GET
ANY MORE OUT OF YOUK LIFE THAN YOU PUT INTO IT. You may
get less; you cannot get more. Do you say it i3 a harsh law? On the contrary, it Is a most gracious provision. It puts the powers of the universe into your humble hands. It commissions you as captain of your destiny. You get what you give. More than that THE MORE YOU PUT INTO THE CUP THE MORE IS LEFT TO PUT IN. That Is to say, the more love you put In the more love you have left, to say nothing of the overflow of loveliness. The more hate you put in the more hatred yon have left, to say nothing of the hideous overflow of hate. But you ask, Why call life a CRYSTAL chalice?
Because its operations are transpar
ent to all. You can see the process
every day in others and in yourself.
You can see men and women putting love or hatred or envy or revenge into their cups of life. You can see the
overflow in kind, and you can see how
they have more left than they put in.
And in the end when the frail glass
of the crystal Chalice is shattered by
the stroke of Death?
Why, "all you can hold in your dead.
cold hand is what you have given
away what you have steadily put
into the chalice.
Here's the cup. What will you put into it?
MO.VOX'S EARNINGS LESS. The Monon earned in the month of
October $481,461, a decrease of $33,227. The first three months of the fiscal year the road earned $2,087,920, a decrease of $189,400. Prospects are favorable for a change in the finances of
that road, as business shows marked signs of Improvement and it Is believed the present fall will give a different color to the earnings of the line. BEVER1DGE NAMES AIX. One result of the recent elections was to .enlarge the scope of Senator Beveridge's authority over federal patronage. Not only -will he name all of the principal federal officers in Indiana but he
also will be called upon for recommendations for postmasters for eleven of the thirteen Indiana districts. DIDN'T VOTE AS THE V PRAYED. The returns of the prohibition vote in Indiana, as far as they have been completed, indicate that there was a falling off of about 10 per cent in the normal prohibition vote. This' would make the total prohibition vote about 18,000. The loss is attributed to prohibition support given to James E. Watson. FORGED A CHECK. Just as he was preparing to board a train for Denver, Colo., where he was going for his health, Fred Rickard, a young man living at 1032 North Tuxedo street, Indianapolis, was arrested by Detectives Holtz and Samuels on a charge of passing a fraudulent check.
Rickard was until recently a bookkeeper in a local bank and on account of
his health he was compelled to give up the work.
TRAMPING MAIDS ORGANIZE. As & result of a twenty-one mile
Haste is not all that is required in the preparation of a tariff bill which is
occupying the attention of the country. Thoroughness of investigation and consideration is necessary. The fact that the committee's program allows
for hearings "more than double the time" that has been given in the prepara
tion of previous tariff bills does not prove that the time is sufficient. Inquiry
by census bureau methods concerning the cost of foreign manufacture is said to have been without result. There is a theory that the tariff should be revealed on foreign costs. Who, however, is to reveal the costs? Will the foreigner reveal them? There are a great many like important questions
that the people are going to ask about tariff revision before the tariff is ad
justed and there is no need for haste. Let President-elect Taft call his
special session of congress as was promised. A COMMON TENDENCY WITH POORER CHILDREN.
Prince Edward of Wales has been "roughing it" too hard for his health
and will soon be taken from college to have his education continued at home until the time comes for him to go to Oxford. England, not to mention the little prince's family is much concerned by the delicacy of his throat and
lungs which has developed under the toughening process of his school life.

Lamphere, who is charged with killing her and her children, is being tried for his life and the metropolitan papers with ghoulish glee are rehashing the
sickening events that lead up to the horror. Whether Lamphere is convicted
or not, there is absolutely no sympathy for him to be found. There will be general regret that the whole grewsome affair and all concerned in it were not blotted out from the face of the earth. LaPorte's memory is stained forever because of the Gunness horror. It will not be like Thanksgiving unless the trial of Lamphere is all over and the whole shameful business on its way to oblivion. SOME OF THE PAPERS are greatly concerned over President Roosevelt's word "frazzle," claiming that it is a new word. If we remember our history correctly, the message that was sent by General Gordon to the Confederate chieftain General Lee just before the surrender at Appomattox was "Tell General Lee I have fought my army to a frazzle." THE FACT THAT Mrs. Eddy has just purchased a ninety horse power motor car will lead a lot of people to think that there must be something in Christian Science after all, although we don't want to hurt anyone's feelings.

THIS IS MY 45T HBIRTHDAY. J. Ogden Armour,
J. Ogden Armour, eminent as a mer
chant and capitalist, was born In Mil
waukee, November 11, 1863, the son of the late Philip D. Armour, the pioneer of the meat packing industry in Chicago. 'The younger Armour, after attending Yale, entered upon a business career in his father's offices in Chicago. Upon the death of his father in 1901 he succeeded to the presidency of the great firm of Armour &Co. He early showed an aptitude for business and under his management the great commercial enterprises founded by the elder Armour have continued to grow and i prosper. These enterprises include, in addition to mammoth packing houses in Chicago, Omaha, Kansas City, Milwaukee and other cities, an extensive chain of grain elevators. Mr. Armour Is also heavily interested financially in railroads, car lines and other large industries.

King Edward had not seen Lady Hesketh for a long time and when he met
her the other day said in shaking hands with her: "Upon my word that dear little hand is as tiny as ever." The English society journals recall in connection with the incident that years ago somebody named Lady Hasketh and Lady Charles Beresford as the two women in English society who have the smallest hands and feet and remark that the icing has a good memory. Lady Hasketh
is an American by birth. She is a daughter of the lafe Senator Sharon of Ne
