FREE TRADE BUNCOMBE. There is a great deal of poppy cock being written by free soup-house and free trade newspapers in this district about protection and the tariff.
It is simply a waste of good ink and papet and is really conducive to brain fag. An effort is being made to convince the people in the Tenth district that free trade is the only thing for the Tenth district and that the industries in this region, for instance, would be far better off, would have more to do, would employ more men at better wages if English free trade
flourished here. This is sophistry. It is not borne out by the facts at alt Imagine, for an instant, the policy of free trade flourishing in the great Cal

Is it necessary to point out that the Industries in this region have never mar expected almost any day now
flourished and prospered as they are at present? Does any sane man expect that a reversal of present political and economic conditions would make them
pay the working men better wages and employ more of them?
However, let the democrats make their stand on free trade and pro
tection if they so desire.
We believe that if free trade is made the Issue that Congressman
Crumpacker will be re-elected by the biggest majority ever given him.
THE SPEAKERSHIP. It is quite a significant fact tnat the two congressmen mentioned as th most likely republican candidates tor the next speakership of the house come from adjoining districts in the Calumet region.. For a long time the name of Congressman Edgar D. Crumpacker, who represents this Tenth Indiana district, nas been much in favor as the suc
cessor of Mr. Cannon. The other day the name of James It. Mann, of South
Chicago, was prominently put forth by the Illinois delegation. Of course our sympathies are with Judge Crumpacker, but should Mi
Mann be successful in being advanced to the high post, which technicallj
Is more powerful than the presidency itself, the Calumet region will surety
stand foremost in the mind of the speaker. .' Probably no other time in congressional history have the two most prob
able sneakers come from the same region and from adjoining: districts, lv
shows that the Calumet territory not only produces industrial captains, but
stands ready to give the nation men for one of its highest posts.
IT pays to be an optimist. Even if
things do look blue, it never helps to
peek on the dark side of things. Cheer up.
OF course the democrats would like
it better if Senator Beveridge were to
predict an ovedwhelming defeat instead of a victory. ;

BEVERLY OYSTER BAY MILLER.
Many communities are known to the world only by some of the dis
tinguished personalities that reside within their borders. The fame of such democracy's chances is commendable,
places is measured commensurate with the ability of the person in question but it is funny enough to cause a little
to break into print. 1 tmile
Beverly has her Taft, Oyster Bay her dynamic colonel, East Aurora her
Fra Elbert, Berlin the kaiser, Hegewisch her "Battling" Nelson, Chesterton
her Senator Bowser and so on up and down the line.
There is but one reason that Miller Station is on the newspaper map
That one cause is due the fact that her distinguished son, Judge William Westergren, has that rare faculty of breaking into print nearly every fort
night. While the "400" at Miller may wail long in the sand dunes and say that the judge is in the vulgar limelight, nevertheless it makes Miller talked
about and some of the things that her head liner does also makes the world
laugh.
For a long time the idea has been abroad that our judiciary has been
afflicted with too much cold dignity. Even handed justice tempered with
popular sang froid is the rule that prevails in Judge Westergren's court.
There are very few judges that would forget their artificial envelope of dig
nity and who would adjourn court to uphold the town's wrestling champion
ship. And most of those who don the ermine are calloused individuals and not one in ten would get a locomotive to meet a young couple wanting to
get married. . ,
In the meantime, while the' critics howl and weep, Judge Westergren will
not be distracted from his high purposes. He seeks only to advertise Miller, 1 WRITER says that love must be
and as the exponent of latter day publicity, he does not mind it a bit if his cultivated or it will die. Hope that it

UNSEEMLY SPORTSMANSHIP.
The action of Indiana Harbor in the Hammond baseball game last Sun
day is deprecated by lovers of the great game of baseball. Of course, there
are two sides to the question and yet the result shows that Indiana Harbor
quit the field when they were two runs ahead snd the umpire gave the game
to Hammond.
Such unseemly wrangles on Lake county diamonds do not help the sport
at all, but rather disgust those who have paid their money to witness the
games.
It is amazing that anyone could foresee any other outcome to these
games than wrangles and vulgar and school boyish fights, when the umpire is not entirely unprejudiced and is a resident of Lake county. Why the managers of these inter-city games do not hire professional umpires is more than we can understand. They are to be had and their judgment would be unbiased and as fair for one team as the other. The double-umpire system should be used and then such disputes as disgusted baseball fans on Sunday would be conspicuous by their absence. The Indiana Harbor team went Into the game with the understanding that the umpire was to have the power to bench players. He did so and whether he was right or wrong, it would have been far more sportsmanlike for the Indiana Harbor nine to continue the game.
BECAUSE THEY ADVERTISE.
Mary had a little lamb, its fleece was white as snow; it strayed away one summer day where lambs should never go. And Mary sat her quickly
down, and tears streamed from her eyes; she never found the lamb because she did not advertise. ' And Mary had a brother who kept a village store; he sat him down and smoked a pipe and watched the open door. And as the people passed along and did not stop to buy, John still sat and smoked his pipe and blinked his sleepy eye. And so the sheriff closed him out, but still he lingered near, and Mary came along to drop a sympathetic tear. "How is it sister, can you tell, why other merchants here, sell all their goods so readily and thrive from year to year?" Remembering her own bad luck, the maiden then replies: "These other fellows got there, John, because they advertise." Emporia Gazette. i

THE BOY WHO PUSHED. George M. Tosey of . Indianapolis, Lad., is a young man who got up in
the world by pushing. A few years ago George, aged eighteen, was almost without education, being barely able to read and write. He drove a butcher's wagon and thus
supported himself andjiis aged grand
mother.
An Indianapolis minister saw In the boy a diamond in the tough. Through the minister he got a vision
of better things. I OTIS That Is the only way we humans are ;
ever led by our dreams of what ought to be. The minister advised George to edu
cate himself. The boy hesitated, but after a time, led by his vision glorious, he entered school. Almost a man in size, he sat in the classes with the smaller children, a humiliation not easy to undergo. To earn a living young Tosey sold newspapers. Before long he organized
a system of newspaper delivery, employing smaller boys. He was successful in this. In three years, at twenty-one, Tosey had prepared himself to enter college. In the meantime his grandmother, whom he bad tenderly cared for, died. Then the young man sold his news, paper routes for a good price and entered college, paying his way by out
side work. At last reports he was pre
paring for the law.
George Posey will succeed. He has succeeded.
Asked how he had accomplished so
much in so little time and under such
a handicap, he replied:
"By pushing all the time." That's it!
Did you ever try to get up to the
platform through a dense crowd of
people? At first the feat seems impos
sible. But you push, and you continue
to push. Using your body as a wedge,
you steadily keep forcing your way.
Little by little people In front of you give way. Holding the vantuge ground.
you keep on pushing, and by and by
you get through.
Just so does the world get out of the
way of the boy or man who pushes.
The world is so intent upon its own
amusement or its busy nothings that
when a determined individual shoul
ders his way into it it gives way and
lets him go through. Tush, young man!
For verily of the Pusher is the King
dom of Success.

MY LITTLE DOG. My little dog Dot is a sassy pup, and I scold him In savage tonea, for he keeps the garden all littered up with feathers and rags and bones. Ho drags dead' cats for a half a mile, and sometimes a long-dead hen; and when I have carted away the pile, he builds It all up again. He howls for hours at the beaming moon, and thinks it a Melba chore; and neighbors who list to his throbbing tune, rear up In the air and roar. And often I hand down this stern decree: "This critter will have to die." And he puts his paws on my old fat knee, and turns up a loving eye; and he wags his tail, and he seems to say: "You're almost too fat to walk, and your knees arc sprung and your whiskers gray, and your picture would stop a clock; some doggies might turn you . down some dogs that ara; proud and Srand, j but you are the best old boss In town; I love you to beat the band!" And he bats his eye and he wags his tail, conveying this kindly thought; and I'd rather live out my days in jail, than injure that derned dog Dotl WALT MASON.

New York. Aug. 23. In a oar speci
ly chartered for the purpose Col. Theodore Roosevelt left his home today to begin a tour of the West that promises to attract, as much if not more public attention than any trip he made while he was president. The trip will extend over a period of eighteen days and will carry the former President as far west as Cheyenne, Wyo. - The rumors that Colonel Roosevelt is not in thorough sympathy with the Taft administration and the tact that
his speeches are to be delivered for tne most part in '..'insurgent'' territory have caused the politicians of all parties and all shades to look forward to the exPiesidenfa swing around the circle with a feeling of keen Interest, not unmixed with anxiety in some quarters. As a matter of fact, however, those who stand closest to Col. Roosevelt are
of the opinion that he will steer clear
Republican factional differences in
the States where he is to speak. They predict that he will discuss issues arrespective of party patform or factional
policies, and that he is likely to step on the toes of some insurgents as well
as upon those of the regulars. It is believed, moreover, that the present trip
will dispose once for all of the assertion of some insurgents that Col. Roosevelt is out of sympathy with
President Taft and the majority or his parv.
Col. Roosevelt will stop off tomorrow
in Utica t make a speech to the farm
ers of Oneida and Herkimer counties
While in Utica he wi
his brother-in-law. Do
From Utica he will go
erine, using the New York Central Railroad to Buffalo, the Lake Shore to Chicago, the Northwestern to Omaha, and tlftre until the following Monday. The Frontier Day celebration will be In progress In the Wyoming capital, and Col. Roosevelt expects to meet all his old comrades of the plains there. Leaving Cheyenne Col. Roosevelt will go direct to Denver and will spend the afternoon and evening of Monday. August 29. there. The purpose of his
visit to Denver will be to speak at the opening of the national encampment of the United Spanish War Veterans. j From Denver he will go to Oaawatomie. ' Kas., for the dedication of a State park on the old Osawatomie battlefield. This 'event Is scheduled for Wednesday, ' August 31. j The following day the ex-President ' will visit Kansas City and It is said 'he will probably deliver an Important ' political speech there. From Kansas
City he will proceed to Omaha, arriving there Friday, September 2, and remaining until the following day. Sunday will be spent in Sioux Falls and the next day he will deiver a Labor day address in Fargo. Tuesday, the day folowing, ono of his most Important speeches will be. delivered in St. Paul, before the Conservation Congress.
Gifford Pinchot will be on the platform with him. On Wednesday, September 7. Col. Roosevelt will be the geust of the Press Club at Milwaukee. The next jump will be to Freeport, 111., and then to Chicago, where he will speak under the auspices of Hamilton Club. The same night he will move on to Cincinnati, and spend Friday, September 9, there as the guest of the Ohio Valley Eposltlon. Saturday. September 10. he will Journey to Pittsbirg to address the Civic Comission of that city. From Pittsburg he will return direct to New York.
making no more speerhes for the rest of the trip, and will reach Oyster Bay on Sundav. September 11. The foregoing traveling card shows the set speerhes that the ex-President is scheduled to make, but the demand to hear him is so great over all the territory which he will cover that it is pTobable he will deliver many extempore talks from the rear end of his private car.
