In that delineation. The curious fea

ture of the situation is that every

knocker thinks the other fellow is the

knocker. The way to stop it is to stop it. If the energy expended in Marion in kicking were put into pull

ing there is no limit to what might be accomplished. And The Chronicle believes there is a disposition right now to knock the knocker and boost the booster. Marion Chronicle.

CAN YOU BEAT IT? A London raper, in speaking of the

arrest of three lads says, "The boys

who expressed their sorrow promised

to do nothing of the kind again, were

bound over."

One of the newspaper men on our side of the pond saw the statement

and with that rich and inimitable

American humor says, '"The boys

should have been bent over."

DO WE HEAR A SECONp?

We rise to ofTer up a motion calling for a vote of thanks to Editor Darling of the Laporte, Argus-Bulleton, the first democratic editor who ever spoke a kind word for Teddy Roosevelt. Mr. Darling says: "President Roosevelt would never have been so careless as to go on a swing around the circle while the world's championship baseball series was in progress. The colonel was an ader at choosing the psychological moment."

Colonel Wheeler, editor of the Crown Point Star, has become famous. After' this paper gave the news to the world of the veteran editor's new social departure via the coat hanger route; over the humming wires went the story and from the corner of Forty-Second street and "the Great White Way" in New York to Chaparral street in San Antonio, Editor Wheeler was a marked man. Friends of his from foreign climes are sending him newspaper clippings. Punch, of London, and LaRire, of Paris, have hatched up jokes about Brother Wheeler's

two-shiri experience. it is a little early yet to hear from the Balog Journal in the Philippines, the Nagasaki Clarion in old Japan or the Greenland Blubber, but they will doubtless all send greetings. The Indiana society banquet, next month, will not be complete without Editor Wheeler. Both Will J. Davis and Judge Field must do their duty.

"DIRTY WORK."

Are you doing dirty work for some one? There is a slang phase in common use nowadays, which, while rather inelegant, is mighty expressive, says the Trenton American. "Doing the dirty work! ' How often you heard that expression in business and politics! Everybody knows what

it means. We mention it for the purpose of

offering a little advice to young men.

Never do some other man's "dirty work." It is the most unprofitable, the most degrading and, nine times out of ten, THE MOST THANKLESS job on earh.

It matters nothing how long and faithful he has served his boss, how much he has risked, how much he has

sacrificed, how mucl, his Boss has

profited by his services, the minute he is charged with some crime, even though it is a crime committed at the

Boss' orders. HE WILL BE SACRI FICED.

Idle box cars in the United States and Canada cn that date, according to the fortnightly bulletin of the American Railway association, numbered only 7,166, a decrease of 3,321 in two weeks and the smallest surplus in two years. The shortage of box cars on Oct. 25 was more than twice the surplus. The shortage amounted to 14,943 cars, an increase of 4,853 in two week. "Every class of cars (fiat cars excepted) shows a decided increase In the number of idle cars. The largest

decrease is shown in coal cars, that 1

class of car decreasing from 19,543 cars on Oct. 25, a decrease of cars. During the . same period box cars show a decrease of 5,206 cars and miscellaneous cars decrease 6,492 cars, which together with an increase of 17 flat cars make a total decrease of 19,076 cars for that period."

PORK PROFIT PUZZLE. Roe Neely bought a load of hogs from John Peak for which he paid 5 cents. After a few days he sold them to T. F. Heller for five and one-half. Mr. Heller sold the hogs to C. C. Gillespie at seven and one-half. Mr, Gillespie sold them to Newt Akeman for seven and three-quarters. Mr. Akeman sold them to Lee Wilhite at seten and seven-tenth, and Mr, Wilhite

sold them to J. F. Howell for seven

and one-half. Now, If you can figure

out who made the profit on this load of hogs you probably know how old Ann was. Columbia (Mo.) Tribune.

PSYCHE WON'T SUFFER. Boston is having eomewhat sensa

tional discussions these days over the

statuary in the Boston meseum, and the city is agog with heated words

over the controversy.

It seems that Psyche in the museum,

one of the most beautiful statues

there, is clad in a great deal of noth

ingness, and the ultra-prudish Bostonese want to have 'a few more

clothes put on Psyche. Now the Bostom museum is

warm place. Perhaps this turmoil has

been started because winter Is coming

on and they fuel sorry for Psyche. We

believe that Psyche will get along splendidly during the winter and the

good people of Boston should turn

their attention to the putting of

clothes on her poor people. There are

a good many children there, as in

other big cities, who haven't many more clothes, than Psyche, and they

need covering this time of the year

more than the maiden whom Cupid

visited by night.

Psyche is immortal and the poor lit

tie Boston children are mortal.

LET the ladies have a chance in

CaHfornia. The men are certainly

making a bad mess of It.

CHICAGO judge says: "Don't He to

your wife." Yes, and don't lie to the

other fellow's wife either.

DOES the town, or some specialist or leader or citizen with a little pub

lic spirit figure out some way of pro

moting a good cause? The first thing

to be done, and the easiest, is to in

terest the newspapers. They will do

the heavy work and are useful be sides, in shouldering all the bfarne

Every "boost" for the town helps ev

ery merchant's business, too. And

still some of the business men think

they pay for all the valuable adver

tising they get in the papers.

SAME EVERYWHERE. Marion is one of the best towns anyhere. But visitors are more pronounced' it their expressions of appreciation that are our home people. A visitor to Marion describes it as a place where everybody knocks everybody else. There is too much truth

on election day. He distributed twenty thousand campaign buttons over the

district bearing the inscription "Before Ten Club." They were worn all over the district, and they attracted muh favorable comment. Hays had many other original ideas which he used In that campaign, too, and as a result his district made a good showing at the

election last fall, in spite of the Remocratlc landslide.

Hays has never been a fractional Re

publican. He has worked under James

P. Godorlch as state chairman and under Edwin M. I.ee a estate chairman. He has given everybody a fair deal and has never been lined up under any factional banner. He Is in a position to take hold of a state campaign under these circumstances and pay no atten-

tionxto any faction or element of the

party. This is regarded as one of his

greatest elements of strength, because

Republicans all over the state are say

ing that the first thing for the party to

do Is to get rid of factionalism.

A good many Republicans are saying that with a candidate like Hugh Th.

Miller, of Columbus, for Governor, and

a state chalrma nllke Will H. Hays, the Republicans would have a strong or- '

ganizatlon and a strong ticket with which to go before the people. Miller has never been identified with any element of the party, and this would make him a good teammate for Hays.

Mr. New Is an experienced politician.

He knows the game thoroughly and he

has the respect of everybody. There is no faction of the party that could take any exceptions to his selection as state chairman, for he has been the friend to everybody and the- enemy of nobody. In the years that he has served as Republican national committee man he has obtained a broad view of the political field and has been recognized as one of teh natlona Headers of the party. He has served the party for years and has never held office. In fact he has refused office many times when he could have had it. He turned down an offer

of a place in President Roosevelt's cabinet. He says he would not take any office, but he has always been ready

and willing to work his head off for

the good of the party.

Keep Your Credit Good-

All business Is foundei upon confidence. If a bank loses the confidence of the people. If a department store forfeits the esteem of its patrons, if a newspaper abuses the trust of Its readers, if an employer wrecks the faith of his helpers, old Chro-

nos sharpens up his sickle and whistles for the receiver. The bank may be solvent, the department store may be well equipped, and the newspaper may be run by an Apostle but when confidence flees out the sheriff comes in. , The man whose word is as good aj his bond, has an asset more valuable than money. Many a man can borrow a hundred dollars on the security of ten callous spots on the inside of his hands, and none on his conscience. Tet there are big property owners In their wife's name who can't negotiate the loan of a toothpick this side of the Canadian boundary line. To have and deserve the confidence of friends and business acquaintances is worth a Missouri farm In any market and that is going some.

Madison. Wis., Nov. 6. Wisconsin may break with Iowa. It would not be surprising to the Badger rooters if the university athletic department should cut off Iowa from Its calling list in the future as a result of the Injury received by Half Back Pollock la Saturday's game. The athletic authorities refused to state definitely whether or not such action would be.taken, but It was generally rumored around the campus today that such a move was contemplated. The students are firm In their conviction that the Injury was not merely "one of the fortunes of football." They arrest that the breaking of Pollock's ankle was the direct result of a deliberate effort by O'Brien, the big Iowa center, to "get him."
