WHAT THE LESSON MEANS.

How well the republican party learns the little lesson, taught it at the hustings on Tuesday, depends upon its gameness, its ability to take a good whipping with the proper humility, and its determination to come to a reali

zation of what the lesson meant.

The defeat itself comes at an opportune time. In itself, as far as the

party in the nation, it is inconsequential. The House is lost to the party

but the senate remains republican. The

With the Upper House and the President against them they can be nothing but obstructionists. It is hopeless to expect that the democrats will aid

republican progressiveism. They proved debate when they refused to line up hen the political atmosphere has above all others that President Taft is nearly two years his path as the chief ties. He has accomplished a great deal the housetops what he has done. How clearly shown in another year.

If the republican party rallies around Mr. Taft as It ought to do, and we

believe it will, the democratic party, in reality divided, with a dozen ambition

hand can never be a menace to a united republican party the party which

never stands still. We have been chastened, but not humiliated. WHY NOT PEACABLE ELECTIONS IN GARY?

Gary will one day wake up to the fact that the absolutely disgraceful methods used within its confines on election day give it a black eye. These methods are shameful. A veteran correspondent said that never in all his forty years of his work has he seen the police of a city used by a political

party as were the Gary police used on Think cf negroes and foreigners done. There should be neither use of Gary. Election officers are given full

vny permit crowds at the polls? Why should not Gary have a peaceable election? Other cities in Lake county with bigger votes to cast, had no trouble. A man's political convictions were not interfered with. It should make no difference whether a man is a democrat or a republican. One is as good as the other. It is a marvelous thing that lives were not lost in Garv

on Tuesday. Perhaps the people have

THE VICTORY OF CONGRESSMAN CRUMPACKER. It must indeed be provoking to the democrats of the Tenth district, say in fact irritating, to find that the people of the district have complicit confidence and faith is Judge Crumpacker. It must be gratifying to the people of Lake county to learn that he Is not to be east aside like an old shoe after the many years of faithful service he has given his constituency. The splendid vote given the congressman by the people of this great manufacturing district, by the old soldiers, the farmers, by democrats and republican alike, is a white badge of honor for Judge Crumpacker. The race he made against so able, so versatile, so Industrious, so Cleveland so well-equipped an opponent as Johs B. Peterson was a notable one. The campaign Mr. Crumpacker conducted was a dignified one in the extreme. The Roby-Robertson Press bureau stands bare rebuked. It hurt Mr. Peterson and helped Judge Crumpacker more than any one thing.

RANDOM THINGS S FLINGS

WHAT has become of Aviator Ely? IN jthe meantime the price of coal is not any less than the price of bacon anway. - e NOW is the time for all fat turkeys to come forward for the relief of the anyway. YOU cannot look around without seeing some poor republicans who fell by the wayside. aj THE high price of bacon undoubted ly had a great deal to do with the silkstocking vote. ' IN the meantime, let us not forget the church-oyster-supper season is al most in our midst. - PERHAPS Belle. Crippen was trying to get some books out of the Hammond public library. REPORTS from Senator Shively's sore toe indicate that it is improving splendidly since Tuesday. ff NOW that the democrats have won we shall look for an immedlate'reduction in the price of bacon. - PLEASE let us get down the cam paign posters and pictures from the poles as quickly as possible. A ISN'T the man who is telling you all about how it happened a wonderful being? Can you beat him? BY the time the "Outlook" gets ready with its election story, most of us will have forgotten all about it. A OUR old friend Billy Blodgett will be wonder where in the hot place he got the name Wells Blodgett In his travels. Aft THE man who stands up for his friends is a mighty welcome man In any of the street cars in the Calumet region. THE tabulated election returns show that the foreign vote in Glendale was not as heavy this fall as it was last November. LAKE county is the only rift of gloom in Indiana for the republican party and good old Lake looms up bigger than ever. " 'I can't sell you a gallon of whiskey unless you want it for medicinal, scientific, or mechanical- purposes,' said the druggist." AND Governor Marshall merely smiles and rubs his hand lovingly over his moustache when he thinks of what happened in Gary. AND it is no sign that the man who didn't vote for Tom Grant so acted because he didn't think that Tom made a good sheriff. DOCTORS oppose the theory that a man has a right to take his life. In other words it ought to be left en tirely to the doctors. CONTEMPORARY pointing out that King Manuel II. will not be 21 until Nov. 15, remarks that he has plenty of time yet to learn a trade. EAST Chicago has about all she can attend to these days getting ready for Uncle Sam's mail carriers, who are getting measured for suits. ft THE Hammond University club ha its best bib and tucker all ready fo Friday night and is with fluttering heart all ready for its debut. BY this time the fears of the shy and shrinking Stokes Jackson have been fully allayed. The republicans did not succeed in stealing the state. THERE seems to be little question about its being a landslide, earthquake, tidal wave and all the dread phenomena of nature poured into one bitter cup. NOTICE on the woman's page an article headed, "What Baby Wants." Last one we saw reaching for anything as after a hammer trying to smash in an ormulu clock. AS INCIDENTALLY the candidate about this time has a splendid opinion cf the man who tried to get him to run for office and then refused to put himself out long enough to go to the polls to vote for him. ' - POLICEMAN who has Just resigned says he can make more money in the grocery business. No doubt this has some Bubtle connection with the tariff and the democrats will probably blame Congressman Crumpacker for it.

The Evening Chit-Chat By RUTH CAMERON

I wonder If women, as a rule, realize how Intensely and consistently most men hate perfume. I was speaking of the way In which men who smoke leave the taint of their habit upon you. If they so much as shake your hand. j I rather like the smell of fresh to-! bacco smoke," I said, "but the stale odor that smoking leaves on hangings and draperies, and that clings around most men who smoke a great deal. I hate. Why, If you dance with such a man or shake hands with him you can smell thatj stale odor on yourself the rest of the evening." "Is It any worse than the way -women disseminate the odor or perfumery?" demanded the other party to the discussion. ' As a proof of his disinterestedness in the argument let me mention that the other party does not smoke at all. "No nice woman uses perfumery," i I protested. ' "Yes, they do," he insisted. "Well, maybe riot strong perfumery, but some kind of scent. My mother, now, Insists she doesn't use perfumery, but her handkerchief always has some kind of an odor." "Why, that's because she keeps them In a sachet," I explained. "Almost every one does that." "Exactly," said the other party, "that's what I mean. I don't know whether the smell Is wet or dry, or whether it comes out of a bottle or day afternoon and physicians at the Cit Hospital, where he was taken shortly after the accident, say his injuries may prove fatal. AVltnesses of the accident say the rider of the machine hurried from the scene as soon as he struck Gunterman and escaped. PRISONER IX TROTBI.E. Governor Thomas R. Marshall was appealed to yesterday by telegraph in n effort to bring about the release of ohn Conway, confined in the county all In Warsaw on conviction of derauding a landlady. While the matter ,-as being considered at Indianapolis 'ie father of the boy wired him money vith which he paid the fine and pur chased a ticket to Ilarrisburg, ra., where he will attend the funeral of his mother, who died suddenly. CONDVCTOR IS KILLED. Burt Haid, 33 years old, whose home Is at Wawaka, Ind.. and who is employed as conductor on the GoshenKendalvllle plug train on the Lake Shore, was fatally injured at Goshen yesterday when he struck an overhead bridge on the railway. He fell head foremost and struck the rail where he was found by the engineer. SKl'IX WAS FRACTIRED. Newton West, 65 years old, fell from a buggy late yesterday afternoon while driving along the Indianapolis & Cincinnati traction line in ShelbyvUle, and his skull was fractured. He was injured to such an extent that he will die. BIG FEES ALLOWED. Attorneys' fees aggregating $9,841.75, were- allowed in Goshen yesterday in the receivership case against the American Mutual Life Insurance Company of Elkhart, started by former Attorney General Miller. Lou W. Vail was allowed $5,203.10 and James S. Dodge, Jr., $4,66S.65. Both apeared for the receiver. IXJVRED IX COLLISION.

To gain his home after a day in the store and to gain the store after a night in his home, he crouches, almost crawls, along the path worn behind the eight-foot board fence. He had that fence erected after his return from Beattyville, Ky., to get medical treatment for his wounds. The men he says who shot him that time, Lish Smith and' Levi Johnson, who were turned free . by failure of a Jury to indict them, are through a cloth, but it's there, and you can't dance with most girls without smelling It on your hands, and I don't like it, and neither do most men." That's a new point of view to me. Of course, I always knew that the use of any strong perfume was extremely bad form. I dislike, as much as any man, to sit I next a woman on the train or car who ! has drench her handkerchief In some strong toilet water before sallying forth to conquest. . ; , I' But I had never thought that the j placing of sachets In one's clean linen was any other than a dainty habit. Perhaps the other party had an obsession on the subject? Perhaps he is particuarly sensitive to odor? I I can't say for sure. All I know is that he very . warmly scouted this hypothesis when I sugested it, and that 1 other men whom I have since consulted hold similar views to his. Already I can picture to myself the letter I am going to receive from the aggressive young - person. She Is going to say: "You needn't think we are going to stop using sachets just because men don't like them. There are some women who don't think about what men like all the time."

Lear t to Heart Talks, By ID WIN A. NYE. A MODERN INSTANCE. This is the plain, true story of Euth's undoing. Tired of clerking in a country store, Euth S. went to Chicago at the age of eighteen. The girl found employment in a garment factory, where she made skirts at 35 cents apiece. Apt and skillful with her bands, Ruth was able by close application to make 6lx or seven skirts a day, thus earning as much as $14 per week sufficient for her modest needs. After a time the factory reduced the price for making skirts to 30 cents each. Ruth simply worked harder and was still able to make her $14. Then later came a further reduction to 25 cents per garment. There was much strife and a strike was talked of. Some of the girls quit. What became of them has nothing to do with this story. A year later the managers of the factory further reduced the price to meet competition, they said to 20 cents per skirt. And later still the price went down to 15 cents the lowest sweatshop figure. Ruth was driven almost to desperation. The cost of living had gone up as the wages went down. She strained every energy to earn enough to pay her living expenses. She contrived pitiful economies, often going without noonday lunch and was faint because of the lack. She had frequent headaches and was very nervous. Because of the overstrain and failing strength the poor girl, though she did her best, was slowly breaking. She could scarcely sleep because of worry. Then one day she said something had snapped inside of her head. Wcrn out, Jbody broken and heart broken, at the age of twenty-three, Ruth went insane. That is all. The story Is true and it is typical of thousands such thousands of honest, pure, hard working country girls whom the city has swallowed up Into its ravenous maw and then, having sucked their innocent blood or killed their souls, has spewed them out, broken and impotent wrecks of woman hood.
