OH HOW THEY LOVE MARSHALL. Politics Is a funny game. Every how and then Deputy Oil Inspector Swalm busts off A few gall us buttons showing what great lore Judge decker end Governor Marshall have for each other. It makes people 8tnlle around here. All they have to do Is to recall the Insulting epithet bestowed on Governor Marshall by Judge Becker on the

occasion of Marshall's visit to Attorney

gave vent to the expression in the presence of witnesses.

Although Swaim has forgotten it, impromptu speech at the Jackson Day

whacks at Marshall and actually declared he was not fit for public office

And we suppose this was all the work of "cheap republican editors." Why It makes everybody laugh. Here is Sam Ralston praised to the skies by Swaim, having just thrown "H large bouquet at Marshall and his presidential chances. "We remember, too, the Ralston speech at the Jackson banquet. Holtzman, of Indianapolis, had just lauded Marshall as a presidential candidate to beat the band. The crowd went wild when Holtzman named Marshall for president. Then Ralston got up, with the praises of Marshall as & presidential candidate ringing in hia ears. He made a fine democratic speech and dumlounaed the guests by saying something like this: "All of this brings us back to the thought of who shall be our standard bearer in 1912. And the fog of the dawn portends a bright ' and glorious day for democracy, when out of the west there shall come as our standard bearer that great commoner, William Jennings Bryan. And Indiana shall "see him as he goes on his way to Washington to take the office of president to which he will be elected." TheTe was no applause. Then Becker got up. He was sincere in his dislike for Marshall and consistent., And yet the deputy oil Inspector blows up if any one dares to even call attention to what is current comment all over the state.

INTEREST IN MOVE IS GREAT. - Although President Gavit of the Gary & Interurban railway denies the common reports to the effect that Charles W. Geist, the Philadelphia millionaire, who controls the lighting privileges of northern Indiana, has purchased a controlling interest in the Gary & Interurban and the New York-Chicago air line with its subsidiary companies, such as the Valparaiso -& Northern and the Goshen & South Bend, yet it is interesting to know 'that Mr. Geist has his eyes on Lake county and that he is especially attracted to Gary. A few days ago his merger of the gas and electric utilities, under the 'name of the Northern Indiana Gas & Electric company, become known when incorporation papers for this 13,000,000 concern were filed in Indianapolis. Not so very long ago Mr. Geist brought out the Calumet United railways which were duly incorporated. For some time Mr. Geist has been figuring out franchise possibilities between Chesterton and South Chicago via Gary. He realizes that there are many possibilities with such a line. As yet that virgin field as represented by the approaches to the various main gates of the steel corporation's plants have been unapproached and before long proper transportation facilities for these places will be needed. Even if Mr. Geist has not secured control of the companies mentioned,

there is every reason to believe that ern capitalists to invest millions in this region are in the shape of the money can furnish and the people have EAST CHICAGO

It is pleasing to note that religion over in East Chicago Is keeping pace with other progressive movements. Two handsome new churches planned

t? be ejected this year, is not doing so badly, even in the Calumet region. When a new $20,000 church stands in the place of the one now occupied

by the Methodists, and another of equal pretension is reared on the site of

the little stone edifice where the Congregationalists worship. East Chicago will indeed have a right to be proud of its showing in the'tnatter of churches. There is some hope for a community, when in this mad rush for money, the churches can manage to get a sufficiently substantial part of it, to put

up elegant buildings, such as those congregations.

AN OUTRAGEOUS ACTION. The Chronicle said on Saturday that the pardon record of Governor Marshall was a public scandal. As if to give point to that charge locaiiy Governor Marshall on that day issued an unconditional pardon to Salathier Pulley of this county, who waa convicted for criminal assault on a fourteen year old girl by a Grant county jury. Although twelve Grant county men who heard all the evidence in the case were able to agree unanimously that Pulley was guilty of a crime the thought of which makes every decent man's blood boil, it took two Grant county politicians, Senator B. B. Shlvely and Congressman George W. Rauch only a fewminutes, according to the dispatches, to convince Governor Marshall that Pulley had been the victim cf Judicial injustice In his own, county.

OF course It killed the peach crop again. OUR idea of nothing" to read on Sunday is J. Frank Hanley's book on the Savior. GETTING so you can tell the difference between a harem skirt and a pair of peg tops? WELL, let the bad weather come so we can be done with it before the fishing season begins. LONG Island hen lays eggs while flying. Hope that the practice does not become prevalent. THAT low gurgling chortle that you hear now and anon mostly anon is the cheerful groundhog. SENATOR Kern is being boomed for president, but hot so much that it will pinch him anywhere. BECAUSE their clothes attract attention some men get it into their heads they are distinguished. NEW Jersey waiter has Just smuggled into a big fortune. "Everything comes to him who waits," etc. ONE Whiting man refuses to worry about industrial conditions. He hasn't paid all his Christmas hills yet. E. E. NEAL can subscribe to the motto about ingratitude and never get himself into trouble for perjury. - WHAT has become of the old-fashioned man who refused to cut his hair until W. J. Bryan was elected president? HAMMOND and Gary are both clam oring for more houses and yet there are those who declare that business is dull. AND what does the Ginger Ale Highball association care whether the pictures are taken out of the barrooms or not. IT'S anything to beat Taft with some republicans. Yes, and It was anything to beat Grant with the same sort of chaps. NOT having any deadlock or sena torial scandal, the California legislature invited Colonel Roosevelt make a speech before it. . IT is a question which could be the bigger blot on Nevada's honor prizefighting at Reno or the ungodly di vorce courts there. WHAT has become of the old-fash ioned man who would tap a maple tree this time of the year if he could only get a few drops out of it? THERE are 843,000 children in Chicago and it is quite probable that some of them will vote for Carter Harrison if his managers can arrange it. . WE understand that Mayor Knotts of Gary has been called upon to keep Carter Harrison in his campaign. Will Mr. Knotts' troubles never cease? ' THE revolution in Mexico may not be serious, but there is a good deal of fire arms toting on this side of the Rio Grande if all reports are true. LOTS of people say "cheer up" because they don't know enough to be any different themselves. You can be as silly one way as you can another. INDIANAPOLIS Sun ran a column about some modern celebrities the other day, but we failed to notice Tim Englehardt's name anywhere therein. ; IF the National Model License league of Louisville, Ky., wants back a nice little boost for Governor Marshall it can have it by sending a twocent stamp to this office. IT was a neat little bouquet that Kern handed to Bryan, but it did neither one of them any good. It was only another case of Kern's opening his mouth to put his foot "nto it. ALL that President Taft needs to do is to keep right on listening to some of those so-called republicans who never do anything unless it is to hunt the pie-counter and Indiana will keep in the democratic column. - WITH the preface that "passion must be subjugated and pure comradeship substituted ere the friction of sex will cease to hinder the better acquaintance of men and women," Professor Charles Zueblin, of Chicago, recommends dancing as a means to happiness. The professor will kindly waltz himself until the committees are through Investigating the dance halls is the dandy little suggestion made by a contemporary.

"THIS IS MY 05TH BIRTHDAY" George T. Reed. Dr. George E. Reed, president of Dickinson College, Carlisle, Pa., and one of the foremost scolars in the Methodist church, was born in Brownvllle, Me.. Ma rch S8, 1846, the son of a Methodist minister. He received hlj preparatory education in the public schools of Lowell, Mass., and at Wilbraham Academy. hence he entered Wesleyan University at MlddletoWn, Conn., graduating in 1869. He continued his studies at Boston University Theological School, but did not remain for graduation. After being ordained to the ministry he officiated as pastor of Methodist churches in a number of cities of New England and New York. He became president of Dickinson College in 1889 and during his service of more than twenty years he has developed the college into one of th foremost schools of its kind -n the country. As State Librarian of Pennsylvania from 1889 to 1803. he developed and compiled the Pennsylvania archives. Dr. Reed has taken a deep interest in public affairs and numbers among his pergbnal friends the greatest Americans of the last few decades. Heart to Heart Talks. toy EDWIN A.. NYE. OVER THE THOSE. Eight-year-old Alonzo Cuinmings of Torre Haute, Ind., was hurrying to school when the poor lad was struck down by a street car, Taken to a hospital, it was discovered that his arm was badly mashed and that amputation would be necessary. Just before be took the anaesthetic for the operation Alonzo asked to be allowed to say a prayer he bad been taught In Sunday school.' And io while the surgeons waited and the nurses bowed their tearful faces the little fellow recited to its amen the petition he bad learned, , Then, turning to the nurses with a smlliug face, the boy said: "tfow I'm ready." An affecting incident surely- But why and how was it? Why the child's strengthened spirit? Whence came the light on his facet Was it merely the "reflex influence' of his prayer, the reaction from a mental attitude T Somehow that does not explain. It lacks something. There was the great Led Tolstoy. In his last interview with his niece, recently published, he was asked what to him was the greatest thing in the world. Answering, he said in substance: y "The most wonderful thing is prayer the fact that mortals may make a close connection with the spiritual world." Is it not so? If one may by means of Some mysterious telephone call up and talk with spiritual personalities, is it not won derfulincomparably more wonderful than any wireless telegraph! Not that every mumbled ritual or verbal recital is a prayer. Most of them are not. Some of them are little less than blasphemy. The poet says that Prayer U th soul's sincere dealr Unutterad or expressed. The cry of the publican, "God be mereirul to me. a sinner," was a prayer, while the verbose recital of the Pharisee wis merely a public rehearsal. Tyndall prayer tests? Say what, you will, is It not natural that In a crisis the human spirit should call up its kin? Simply because your spiritual terminal facilities may be poor how do yon know that Alonzo Camming' message was not heard at the other end of the telephone? UP AND DOWN IN I-N-D-I-A-N-A FIGHTS OFF EIGHT MEN. Violently insane from a long illness of the grip, Andrew Flateljr, aged 21 living at Greensfork, fought eight men. and when brought to the County Jail in Anderson he tore the leather on the padded cell into shreds. Physicians think that when Flately recovers his physical health his mentality will return, but at present he is a raring maniac. The Itev. Father Julius Mattingly of St. Mary's Catholic Church went to Greensfork in the hope, of pacifying Flately and bringing him to

Bllse was returning to his home near the plate glass works with Tony Mike and Greese George when , they were stopped by two strangers, j who produced a revolver. George and! Mike were permitted to escape, but the robbers seemed to know that Blise had money. The wounds may prove seri- j ous. IJIES WORRYING OVER OV. MaJoj" John B.

Paul, a rural mail carrier out of that place, was attacked by his son, Frank Miller, of Greensburg, S5 years old, and so seriously cut that it is thought he will die.

TRAIN" CREWS ESCAPE VHlRT.
