BE VE RIDGE'S BRAVE WORDS. "Fortunes of war; It Is all right; 12 years of hard work; clean record; I am content." SENATOR A. J. BEVERIDGE. Brave words from a man of indomitable courage, a man whose defeat is not his own loss, but the loss of the people of the great commonwealth of Indiana. How different the words are from those uttered by J. V. Kern when he
was defeated by Senator Shively! You will remember them, charging bribery, intimating that Mr. Shively was conniving at his defeat. Words full of malevolence of spleen, of soreness; not at all the words of a game
fighter.
Kern owes his victory to the fact that senators are not elected by direct vote of the people. Beveridge owes his defeat to the' fact that the people
could not vote for him. There is no question which man the people of In
diana prefer.
Indiana is a loser in the defeat of Senator Beveridge, but there are other
fights and Senator Beveridge will be in them.
GROWING EAST CHICAGO.
Weil done, East Chicago! The census returns which give East Chicago a population of 19,098, an increase during the past ten years of almost 500 per cent, are unique in one particular. East Chicago itself was scarcely looking for so large a population, a population, a fact which stands almost without precedent in the history of :--5wing towns, whose inhabitants almost invariably look for larger figures than the returns show. An increase of almost 500 per cent in population during a single decade, is marvellous for even the Calumet region, and that is saying much. People who have watched East Chicago grow, have realized that the march of progress hereabouts was outdoing itself in double quickstep. But they had not counted on such vast increase in population. East Chicago is peculiarly situated and this accounts for one important difflcutly in sizing up its population. Divided as it is into three distinct settlements, East Chicago proper, Indiana Harbor and Okalhoma, its size is confusing, and the ever shifting and ever increasing nature of its make up, do not render it less so. Hammond can no longer pat East Chicago on the back in a patronizing way, but in extending congratulations, is forced to more dignified recognition of its sister city's growing consequence. y

DON'T ever think for a minute that
Senator Beveridge will never be heard
from again.
THAT snow storm is a little late
and must have been held up in La-

- THERE seems to be absolutely no
curiosity whatever about the ultimate fate of Joey Foraker.
ft "IS Roosevelt Done?" anxiously asks
the Lafayette Journal. We do not know and care less.
THERE is not much concern now over the query, "What shall we do with our ex-presidents. THE "Outlook" will doubtless sell pretty well for the current number if it doesn't any other time. es THE tariff schedules are beginning to look Miss Democracy in the face to see what they think of her. THERE are only two republicans left in the Marion county court house. Heavens what a tomb of gloom. IT seems impossible for some of our esteemed republican exchanges to even forget their sorrows for a minute. QUINCY, 111., has grown 1 per cent in ten years and no one has accused
her of padding the census either.
WHAT ABOUT HIS SPONSORS?
So much has been told about Mike Yoconovich, otherwise known as "Dog-Face Charlie," that we are getting tired of printing his name. The
"gentleman" is an ignorant and brutal foreigner who was trained in the Chicago stock yards. In Gary this year and last year, he was appointed a po
liceman around election time, given a gun, a star and a club and then
turned loose to terrorize people.
"Dog-Face" has his faults and is of a low type of humanity but at that he has at times exhibited a regard for the law. However, when "Dog-Face"
has been clothed with authority and told that he can defy the sheriff oi anyone else, it is no wonder that he has become a terror.
If "Dog-Face" is to be punished by the courts for his sins it is too bad
that those who make him what he is, cannot be included in the penalty
Lert to mmseir tne man might not be an undesirable citizen. But encouraged by official powers and told that he can break laws with impunity and
defy superior authority it is no wonder that a man who has no higher con
ception of right and wrong has done what he has. The decent public has a right to demand punishment for "Dog-Face's" misdeeds. But what about those who put him up to such work and who encouraged him to it? The
public oftght not to forget this also.

A REGRETTABLE AFFAIR.
The questionable tactics employed by the Boyville boys of Gary in their convention last Monday, is a fair illustration of the influence a corrupt set
of politicians may exert over the rising generation, by their example.
It is bad enough that men versed in the dark and devious ways of poll
tics, should use brutal threats in an effort to intimidate voters, but when the
ideals of youth are so besmirched as to make young boys guilty of the dis
honorable and bullying tactics employed ty them last Monday, it Is Indeed
deplorable and it is time some counter influence be brought to bear to make
the lads see the error of such ways.
The boys themselves can scarcely be blamed for their actions inspired as they have been by the example set them by their elders, but whether re
sponsible or not, there can be small doublt that the best thing for Gary's youth, all things considered, is to eliminate Boyville for the time being. It seems a shame that so worthy a means should be used to such an unworthy end, that of giving practice in corrupt politics to future voters. The object of the organization is the very reverse of this, and under normal circumstances its influence would be the opposite.
NOT wishing to add to "Dog-Face"
Charlie's troubles, but there is a hereafter even if it is only on this mun
dane sphere.
MUST be a thing of joy and beauty
forever to run a democratic paper in a democratic county in a democratic state like this.
FUNNY how quickly some people
can bore you and how long it takes
you to get it into your head that you
may be boring them.

ONE result of the election shows

has not right to be both.

Worrying because sickness preventel his voting-, Michael Keller, an old resident of South Bend and a northern Indiana pioneer, suddenly became 111 and died within twenty-four hours. He had not missed voting since the time of Zacharlah Taylor. MACHINE MAKES ERROR. Although on the face of the Delaware county returns Sheriff W. Albert O'Hara, of Muncle, Republican, was reelected by a plurality of eleven votes, and, despite the further fact that the
canvassing board has so reported, there is no doubt In anybody's mind, not even In O'Hara's that his opponent, Jesse G. White, a policeman, was really elected by about ninety votes. Asa result a situation has developed for which there seems to be no settlement or precedent ORDERS S4 LOCOMOTIVES. The Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad has placed an order with the American Locomotive Wo rks for twenty-four Mallet locomotives of the 2-6-6-2 type of wheel arrangement.

Chicago Orchestra, was born In Julich, 1
Germany, Nov. 11, 1872 and received hisl
musical education principally at
Cologne University. After several years
of training in Berlin and other musical
centers' of Europe he came to America
at the age of twenty-three and joined
the Chicago Orchestra as viola player
Soon Theodore Thomas, then leader of the orchestra, took notice of the young viola player, and the result was that the latter was given a more prominent part in the orchestra's concerts. He
was made assistant director, which po-

Which is to say, his great-grandfather's and great-grandmother's tails were cut off by Irreverent bands for generations back, so that after a time the dogs of Rowdy's tribe got In the habit of being born with two Inch tails. And it is also true that If Rowdy's

"GOD bless Indiana and her noble
people," said Kern after it was all
over and he knew he was elected. We can just see John's whiskers wiggle
when he said it. ft IT is to be hoped that the final returns get in from over the country shortly or else there won't be any republican party left at all. ft CHICAGO paper heads its feminine department "For Woman In Her Hour of Ease." Good thing. Perhaps it will result in father getting a few minutes of ease. THE political claquer, the man who always gets busy after election, but never before, views that nice democratic pie down at Indianapolis with a
great deal of lip-smacking. THIRTY-EIGHT five-foot bags of dried flies were received in New York the other day from Germany, to be used as chicken food, says an exchange, but It failed to tell us how it happened that these dried flies were kept out of the campaign.
for several generations his lineal descendants would be born into the world taiiless. And thereby hangs a tale. Nature's ways may be modified my man. Nature is subject to man. who can change the current of her operations. Use and habit do wonders. Darwin tells us that at first the eagls could not fly, but by the use of its wings and the habit of trying, bequeathing the desire and the habit to its descendants, the day finally came when, through tbe processes of evolution, the first eagle flew. So of man's use and habit. We are told that primitive man aimed his weapon with his right hand at the left breast of bis enemy to reach the heart of his foe. That habit, long continued and strengthened by use in man's early and crude Industry, made man right handed. The left handed man is a lapse of nature. Were we to use only one leg for generations by and by babies would be born with "one leg shorter than it really ought to be." And if mothers continue to squeeze their waists some day babies will be born in the shape of wasps. And what is true of the body is true of the mind. You can cut off the imagination, like Rowdy's tail, by long disuse of it. You can strengthen any

If the railroad superintendents of Indiana have their wishes respected by the next general assembly, the loan
shark will be put out of business. At the closing session of the convention of these superintendent and members of the railroad commission at the statehouse, yesterday afternoon, the money lender of this class was denounced as a menace to the public, through preying on the railroad men who, harassed by their methods, the superintendent said, forget orders, become careless, contribute to accidents and often flee to another state, leaving the roads short of experienced men and compelled to employ lnexperiencea ones in their places.
