R. R. QUILLAN. THE TRUTH HURTS. It will be the source of considerable satisfaction to the people of the Calumet district to know that the City of Chicago, after working for years on plans for inner and outer harbor de velopment have at last been informed by Lieutenant Colonel George A Zinn, head of the Chicago office of army engineers, that after all the canals and rivers of the Calumet region in Indiana afford the only feasible opportunities for real harbor development. It must be rather galling to those of the members of the Chicago real estate board, who have antagonized any and all plans for harbor development in Indiana to be told that after all that localiiy offers the only real opportunities for creating shipping facilities such as the City of Chicago needs.

JL " POD 'THE M DAY FAR AS O .NEAR. So clone vre are and yet no far apart So clone I feel your breath, upon my cheek, So fnr that nil thin love of mine In weak To touch la any . way your distant hearts So clone thnt n hen I henr your voice I ntnrt To nee my whole life ataadlng bare nnd bleak. So far that, though for yearn and yeans I neck. I shall not Had thee other than thou nrt. So vrhlle I live I walk upon the verge Of ii Impassable nnd ehangelesn sen. Which more than death divides me, love, from thee. The mournful beating of Ita leaden nurge Is nil the munle now thnt I nhnll henr. O love, thou art too far and yet too near' Anonymous. Lieutenant Colonel Zinn suggests naively. "Commercial Chicago knows no city, county or state boundaries and a commercial harbor for the city should be provided at a location which will best care for the city's trade. And then after administering the first subtle whack to the dog-in-the-manger policies of these members of marks, "Chicago does not want a har bor that is to be choked to death by the encircling rails of railroads. It wants the commercial piers where there is plenty of room for terminals." Going a 6tep farther,, he says, "That is the trouble with a pier system at the mouth of the Chicago river. There are no railway terminal facilities ex cept those of the Northwestern rail road, railway facilities that today are handle , The inference is plain. , Chicago must recognize the fact that its growth and development has made the creation of a new harbor In the heart of the city out of the question. It must establish sur-h a. harbor on Its ouisuru, more specincany in me Calumet region of Indiana, The people of the Calumet region Kb the insight that has come from (the Study of the peculiar advantages 0f tne region they are building up, saw this long ago. They saw that 'while it would take millions upon millions of dollars to develop the Chi caS river ana an outer naroor in 1 3 . , . - I , ,1 V , . -uu.aKo uie same ok couiq Da aone iu the Calumet region for much less money. They have long known that Wolf lake and the Indiana Harbor canal afforded the best possibilities for future harbor development in the Chicago district and they are now pleased to know that Lieutenant Colonel Zinn has had the strength of his convictions aDd the audacity to tell the neoole of I PM ,... .u. .v. And the real significant thing about the attitude of Lieutenant Colonel 7l.n a th fnf ihat u -w. tain that the Calumet region in Indiana will receive his generous considers tion in his future recommendations to congress. GET READY FOR IT. Another raise in the price of shoes is promised shortly. See nothing for it but to pickle the pads in brine and everybody go barefoot Well, spring will soon be here and if it wasn't for having to stand up in the cars going barefoot wouldn't be so bad MONEY-GrVTNG. The true philanthropist does not give money to the poor. He puts it where they can earn It. The rich young man whose parents give him millions is a failure. The youth from the middle classes whose parents give to him beyond their means Is a failure. The poor man who submits to receiving tips instead of demanding pay ment is a failure. And all these fail ures are the result of the same thing PEOPLE ARE BEING . HELPED WHEN THEY OUGHT TO HELP THEMSELVES. They are being kill ed by kindness. It is an accepted maxim of business that a dollar earned has ten times the value of a dollar found. Your father recognized this when he made you earn your spending money, and now you thank him for it. He wasn't stingy. He could have given you that nickel or dime without landing in the poorhouse as a result, but he knew what you needed better than you knew yourself. There is one consideration that should govern all philanthropy. Never do for any person what he ought to do for himself. Never give money to a beggar or a tramp who refuses chance to earn it. NEVER TRY TO FIND A POSITION FOR A MAN WHO IS UNWILLING TO HUNT IT FOR HIMSELF. Never take the blows

from, the back of a man who refuses to fight It out on his own account. The noblest use to ' which you can put your funds is to employ them so that they will become a benefit to the man who Is standing with his shirt sleeves rolled up, ready to take ad

vantage of the first opportunity to get part of them by honest labor. The other sort of a fellow doesn't merit consideration. Spend your money. If you are a millionaire, buy expensive clothing; own, an automobile, an elevator, a bank and a lumber yard. Put your brains to work to devise schemes WHEREBY YOUR MONEY CAN GET INTO THE HANDS OF THE MAN WHO EARNS IT. Real captains of honest industry are the greatest philanthropists. RAILROAD COURTESY. New York railway and traction of ficials now see a light. They are back of a crusade which calls for courtesy and attention to passengers. Train men muBt be the acme of courtesy. One western railroad has adopted the plan. Would to heavens that we had more of it around here. Take the Lake Shore railway for instance Foul smelling cars, horrible ventila tion, and a lot of insolent trainmen. A trip to Chicago now days 1b a cycle of smells, hot, stuffy cars and gruff orders of "step lively there." A NOBLE ARMY. Mary Garden is out for Roosevelt, along with the Abernathy kids and the Seven Little Governors and Jimmy Garfield and George W. Perkins and Bill Ward, of Westchester, and Glfford Pinchot and Dan Hanna and Me dill McCormick and other great Amer ican statesmen whose names we have carelessly forgotten. It is a noble army. But more that, it is "the people." Just as soon as we can substitute the Columbus speech for the Constitution, the su preme court will be chucked into the waste basket and all constitutional questions will be decided by this most glorious of judicial tribunals.New York World. A MACON blacksmith who has some reputation as a pugilist, was matched to meet an amateur fighter at Bevier the other night The blacksmith arrived on time, shook hands with his man and then went out to take the air. As far as the spectators knows he is still taking it. La Plata (Mo.) Home-Press. MRS. Mayor Shank of Indianapolis, good soul, says she wouldn't live in New York for anything. Doubtless. without a doubt. As the Nashville Democrat says: "Not enough neigh borly chats over the back fence, while the flaring morning-glory wrapper keeps the old hen out of the garden." CONSISTENCY is certainly a jewel. There Is one well-known Hammond business man who has much to say about people who patronize or encourage mail order houses, yet he is building up one of the biggest mail order businesses on the q. t. that you can imagine. IF the kiss that Dickens gave her influenced Kate Douglas Wiggin's lit erary work, it is a pity he didn't kiss some other little girls who took pen in nana wnen iney grew up, says a contemporary. But it should have in eluded the little boys. GOV. Marshall must just be filled with goolous glee at the magnificent boosting and increasing advertising he is being given by the democratic press of Indiana in his race for the presidential nomination. THE Elkhart Review speaks of an alleged newspaper man connected with the South Bend Times, but doesn't make it clear whether the man or the newspaper is alleged. WE believe that It would be a good plan to let Messrs. Hay, Bretsch and Knotts get close enough f(Jr short-arm jabs-and mngnting ii mey are so anxious. y. BY the way, where is Governor Marshall going to include Himself in that list of governors who sre coming out for either Taft or Roosevelt. . CHICAGO will perhaps henceforth beein to realize that there is some thing else to this locality besides sand-dunes and car bandits. ".I. IF vou have ever seen a t aove of peace flying around lately inj this region, you can get an enormous price for a photograph of it. j MR. Lafollette seems to be all crumpled up.

SOME of the politicians around here

are going to need something stronger tnan soothing syrun before the ordeal I is over. LET England shiver in anticipation of her coal strike. The good Lord knows we have trouble enough of our own. ' WELL, . Mr. Nels Bozarth did the best he could, anyway. Angels can do no more, at least they never do. WE can hear the dig-dig, the bullelephant and the whale-headed stork laughing quietly to themselves:' MOTHERS should insist on letting their daughters practice on the gas range as well as on the piano. IT is a progressive age indeed. Most girls now persist in referring to their heavy ones as lingerie. H. NO, we have never found any thing too hot to handle yet, provided it has a name signed to It. HAVE you looked over the fishing outfit yet? Understand the bull-heads are getting ready to bite. AND it has been a very long time since we have heard anything from Tom Lawson. JUAREZ seems to be perfectly harmonious, but by no means monoton ous. WHAT are the democrats going to do about the tariff on silk stockings? IE ARB BY KOBE OUR idea of a conservative investment buying cemetery stock and then waiting for the first dividends. USUALLY a young woman who likes to speed an auto changes her mind when it comes to speeding a baby cab. MOST of us won't believe spring Is at hand until we see two to five column a day by the baseball writers on the pennant probabilities. EDITOR HEARST, Editor Rosentelt, Editor Carr and a few other eds haven't decided as to whether they'll put Bi"er Taft on the supreme bench or send hlra back to Cincinnati LETTERS addressed in care of the'fol. lowing are held by the sporting editor: Kid" Bretsch, "Young" Hay, "Sharkey" Knotts" and z "Battle Axe" Castleman. The owners are requested to call for the same. ACCIDENTS WILL HAPPEN. "Mrs. Leslie Lamb, wife of the presi dent of the First National bank, was painfully Injured yesterday morning. She opened tho barn door and one of the mules scared a cow in the barn and the latter animal darted out. knocking Mrs. Lamb down and render ing her unconscious for several hours." (From the Erasurr!U Courier.) "WHAT'S worth while" (our idea of it) hoping that Mr. Woscscxynskl gets elected mayor of West Hammond, thus Insuring that we will get even with the proofreader and linotype depart ment about twice a day for four years T. B. NOW denies that he ever de nied the denial that he denied he would run. Nearly as bad as M. N. C.'s motion to amend the amendment he was about to amend just before he amended the one that was finally amended. OCR MERRY MINSTRELS. INTERLOCUTOR "MIstah Castle man what Is that you said about MIs tah Hay?" BATTLE AE CASTLEMAN "Ah done said the gemmen done give Tony Baukus a strip of bacon fo'h his vote." BONES KNOTTS "And ah can prove It." END MAN ' HAY "What's dat you gemmen say? To Castleman. Knotts and Mistah Bretsch am prevaricators. Now you stop It." MISTAH BRETSCH "Mistah Hay, yoh quit kicking my dog aroun'." , Intermission. A prlxe of one peso will be given to the man who can suggest a method whereby one's pencils won't drop from his vest pocket when he shovels coal Into the furnace. ITS an ill wind that glows no one good. These March ones are certainly great for showing the latest advance designs in spring hosiery. IN the meantime what's become of the LaFollette boom and the old-fashioned patent medicine almanacs? A lot of presidential candidates are wondering whether a year from today they'll be the one who gets up for the first time In a white house bed na first time In a White House bed. A MAYOR down In southern Indiana wears a badge so that the pe-pull will know who he la Happily, our local burgomasters are still common enough to dress In the uniform of the plebiscite.

"THIS IS MY BOTH BIRTHDAY" Dske of Hamlltoa. The Duke of Hamilton, who la tke premier peer of Scotland and the holder of nearly a score of titles In th English and Scotch peerages, was born March 6, 1862. and succeeded his kins man as thirteenth Duke In 1895. When he was a young man he was a poor lieutenant In the navy and there seem ed not the remotest chance of his succeeding to the Dukedom, but the death of the only son of the twelfth Duke and a auccesslon of other deaths placed him at the bead of the family. The Duke traces his lineage back for more than 800 years. He has one of the most interesting hereditary offleea in the kingdom, for he Is Keeper of Molyrood Palace, and. in this capacity, the owner of the pleasantest suites of rooms in the old home of Scotland's kinga. The Duke'B own estate, known as Hamilton Place, haa often been described, especially the wonders of It famous black . marble staircase. Though the holder of one of the proudest titles in the realm the Duke of Hamilton is comparatively poor. His estates, amounting to about 160,000 acres, are in trust, according to the will of the late Duke. Congratulations to: Prof. Francis B.

To the Editor: Theodore Rooaevelt is running for the presidential nomination under false pretenses. He la a false reformer who sets up false issues to deceive a too gullible public. P. T. Barnum once said: "The American people love to be humbugged," and this nonsensi cal third term movement would seem to verify the showman s philosophy. As a candidate against Taft, Col. Roosevelt is an absurdttj-. There ts no crisis calling for such a movement as Roosevelt represents. President Taft really has done more for the country in three years than Roosevelt did 'n his two terms. Witness the tariff revision, tne tariff commission, the postal bank law, the movement for efficiency and economy in the public service, criminal prosecution of the law breaking trusts, the nation's foreign policy, that has won the respect of the world, and the arbitration treatiea that are the first bona fide attempts at attaining world peace of which civilisation can boas Notice how Mr. Roosevelt evades these live issues of his Columbus speech and works himself into a fine frenzy on "letting the people rule" and the Iniquities of the courts. - This Is characteristic of Roosevelt. While posing as the' people's champion, he really evades every practical Issue where the people's welfare is at stake. He says not a word about tariff reform or the criminal prosecution of trusts. During his seven and a half years in the white house the Payne tariff was robbing the nation's consumers of millions of dollars, but he was dirmb on the subject. So It was with the trusts. He thundered against Vpredatory wealth," but the Steel trust heads were

The congreaslonal committee has gone into that question and exposed the aham of the Roosevelt subterfuge. Mr. Roosevelt's antagonism to courts Is easily explained. The courts stood In his way when he attempted to usurp judicial functions and become a dictator. And he will never forgive them While he was in office the scolding of judges waa one of his favorite pastimes. It was almost as much of a fad with him as keeping up the roll of the Ananias club and giving advice about the baby crop. And new to crown the record of duplicity, Mr. Roosevelt solemnly assures us he didn't mean it when he said in 1904 he would not accept a third term nomination. He meant three "consecutive terms," he hastens to explain. Oh, Teddy! You are cought with you fingers In the Jam. What have you to say to mamma? Oak Park. THOMAS BAIRD. Up and Down in INDIANA OIL CP THREE CENTS. The long-looked-for dollar oil ia almost within reach. Yesterday the Ohio Oil Company's purchasing agency at Hartford City, announced an increase of 3 cents a barrel on North and South Lima and Indiana crude oil. This makes Indiana oil 93 cents a barrel. South Lima S3 cents a barrel and North Lima 98 cents a barrel. There is still about five thousand barrels cf crude oil produced dally In that part of the state. - The price has steadily increased from 73 cents a barrel since the first of the year. DRINK COSTS MAN LIBERTY. Because Charles Lancaster become intoxicated at South Bend after he had promised E. J. Fogarty, warden of the state prison at Michigan City he would not do so be waa returned to prison today to serve nearly seven years more for killing a man at Terre Haute. Tho original sentence was two to fourteen years. Lancaster served a little more than the minimum, and had been out on parole several years. The former convict welcomed his return to prison. He said liquor had been hla undoing years ago and he found, after leaving prison, he could not conquer the old appetite. IS BURNED TO DEATH. Mrs. Mary Benx.of Terre Haute, a widow, died four hours after being burned by using gasoline by mistake for coal oil in starting fire In a kitchen atove yesterday morning. The flames et fire to the waahing hanging in the kitchen, and some of the burning garments fell on the woman's daughter Anna, age eight, who Is in a serious condition. RELIGIOUS RECLUSE DEAD. The Rev. M. J. Bryne, rector of St. Anne's Catholic church, at Lafayette, received a telegram yesterday announcing the death of his sister. Sister St. Bernard, of the order . of Notre Damo d8 Naxmlr, at Cincinnati Sister St. Bernard was one , of the leading members of the order Which is one of the two Catholic sisterhoods in which the nuns live a secluded life, and ncve.appear in public. She was fifty years old, and had been a member of the ord er twenty-six years. She was at the head of the factulty of Notre Dame academy at Walnut Hills, Cincinn ti Before that time she was In a Catholic unlveralty at Washington, D. C. Her name waa Catherine Byrne. She was born at Hamilton, O. CLOWN TO BE A MINISTER. From the sawdust ring to the pulpit Is not such a long stride after all. Raleigh L. Wilson, of Lincoln, Neb., for years a clown in one of the circuses wintering at Peru, has Just announced the achievement, and will devote his time to the serious side of life. Wilson's change of heart, ultimately vocation, came in an unusual way. Between performances in a Minnesota city, he was attracted to a amali church on the outskirts. One of the Methodist elders escorted him to the pulpit and introduced him as "Brother Pope" He was called on to speak, and enjoying thn joke, did his best. The church dlgnitareis complimented him on his sermon, and incidentally paved the way to a new profession for the clown.
