THE ONLY FAILURE. Failure never counts until it reaches
Inside and strikes at the heart.
History has written indelibly the
names of thousands of men who have
failed and tried again; and the souls of the brave have gone marching on, times without number, after their bodies have registered failure.
When failure means simply lack of
attainment, the courageous man labels it "experience"' and contents himself
with Josh Billings philosophy that
'Success duz not konsist on never
makin' mistakes, but of never makin
the game on twict."
It is only when failure "strikes in"
that it is fatal.
No man is defeated until he ac
knowledges defeat.
We place too much valne upon what
others think of us, and too little upon
what we think of ourselves.
So much, depends upon the human
will that no success is possible with
run auditor. lout it. Only when the will is lacking

BOG ORE IN GARY. ; Some people in Gary are quite ex
cited over the finding of iron ore in
the Little Calumet marshes. That there 1b ore in the county has long
been a well known fact. Iron ore of this character, or bog ore as it is gen
erally known, usually exists in any
marshy region. There are also hun
dreds of deposits of it in the Kanka
kee valley but it is not found In
quantities to give it a commercial
value. Analyses - of the local bog ores show that in some respects it approaches the grades used at Gary
and Indiana Harbor but upon the whole it does not measure up to the
standards required in American mills
In Germany ore with constituents
similar to American bog ore is In
much demand but in this country 6teel masters have not been reduced to
the necessity of using low grade ores and even if they had to resort to such contingencies a modern blast furnace
company would find bog ore mining
npro&table.
Ever since the county was settled
farmers along the marshes have lost
their tempers when they found an ore
vein in their pumpkin patches. How
ever, It is interesting to recall that
in the early days of northwestern In
dlana farmers of the Kankakee marshes used to haul a wagon load
of bog ore to where the city of Mis-
hawaka now stands. In the early
forties there was a blast furnac
there and the ore was exchanged for
nails, staples, hardware, etc. With the advent of the railways the Pittsburg Iron market found its way Into
these parts and the bog ore blast
furnace, like other pioneer institu
tions, passed into history .

GOOD OLD LAKE COUNTY. t
There is little doubt but what if the
republicans down state had been organ
ized like the Taft men in Lake and
Porter counties there would be no
doubt about the result in Indiana to
day. A flagrant Instance of going to
sleep occurred even in the Tenth dis trict, however, when a number of pre
cincts in Lafayette defaulted to Roose
velt simply because there was absolute
ly no Taft organization at all. The Roosevelt men were wide awake, "on
the Job" every minute. His honor,
Mayor Durgan, gave them every aid in
his power and as a result Tippecanoe
went for Roosevelt. Lake county
never gets much recognition In state
yet Bhe always comes to bat with the
life-preserver as far as the republica
party is concerned.

THE WATERWAY MEETING.
Commercial Lake County is making
its initial bow to Cook county today
and having made its bow and shaken
hands the two back off into their re
spective corners and await the sound
of the gong that will start the flgb
Lake County is actually at issue
with, the best brains of the city of
Chicago in the meeting which is being held today before the board of United States army engineers. For the first time in the history of the region a well organized and splendidly equipped delegation will
advance the cause of Lake county's waterways and wilt be prepared ta combat the strongest arguments of the Chicago boosters. The Initiative came from the Indiana Harbor , commercial club, a splendid organization which is doing much for the twin cities, and the
people or. nammma nave snown a desire !and a willingness to follow the lead of this city in its plans for waterway development. Some of the best minds in Hammond have been working unceasingly with the best minds of East Chicago and Indiana Harbor on a plan of attack, thse plan that has been prepared and i3 being made today.
NEED OF A PULM0T0R,
Seeing what good the pulmotor is ac
complishing in Chicago, what lives it
is saving, why not have one for use in
Lake county? Many a life would be
saved if this machine were available
in cases of gas poisoning, smothering drowning and kindred accidents
There is no place in the world where
so many accidents occur that result
fatally through lack of this equip
ment. A movement to get a pulmotor and have it located at some central and convenient point in the Calumet
region, if every city cannot have one, would be a mark of credit to the region.

Up and Down in INDIANA
THE noun' dawg promises to become as important a slogan this year as the full dinner pail.
SEEMS a little b$t like this irony of fate that Gary the home of the strongest. Roosevelt sentiment in Indiana, should be the first city in the state to have a duly organized and a red-hot Taft club.
"JUST as soon as the cold snap is over we expect to see more of the ladies." says the Meridian Dispatch.
Better not bo, "ambiguous brother, or you'll have the ladies incensed.
ABOUT the most reliable way of increasing the population is not to permit the poodle dog to usurp the place in society that the good Lord Intended for babies.

AFFINITIES surely: Marriage license 590,378 was Issued in Chicago on Saturday to Stella Wood and Arthur R. Carpenter. The 'steemed Gary Post refers to Mayor Knotts as the "idol of the hour" at the state convention. Judging from the offices Tom Sanded The Post evidently meant an "idle hour." THEN again T. E. K. can console himself with the thought that the fare to Baltimore Is no small item and the hotels are going to charge like the dickens. UP to the hour of balling out the proofreader for the last time John D. hadn't presented Whiting with that sanitary drinking fountain and T. R. had not withdrawn. Than again it looks as the Knickerbocker Ice company may get In with another ice crop before Easter. THE South Chicago Calumet Is elated because the Chicago papers have discovered that South Chicago. is a part of Chicago. Tea.'" you knbw Alaska is , a part of the U. S., etc.
TYPHOID SERUM IS SUCCESS.
A Danville physician has just successfully treated a severe case of typhoid fever with the new serum recently exploited. It is the first case of the. kind in that part of the state, and the experiment was watched with much
(Interest. The patient, is now almost well. The first application reduced the
fever to normal over night, and there has been no return. Physicians believe the eerum will prove a positive remedy In the treatment of this much-dreaded disease.
NO PLACE TO FIX HAIR. The Delaware county commissioners, staid farmers and family men 'near Muncle though they are, nave been compelled by the constant complaints of girls and women to place a mirror
in the court house elevator. The women said that in all other elevators about the city they could tell whether their hats were on straight and one of them, in a letter, upraiding the commissioners and the county for being too "stingy" to spend the money for a looking glass. Then the commissioners yielded. Patronage of the elevator is expected to incresse. GHOST IS A DUMMY. Women living in Frankltn street, Columbus were badly frightened on returning to their homes when what seemed to be a ghost suddenly swooped down on them. They screamed and ran for shelter. Some of the men, who
saw the monster of the air, quickened their footsteeps and did not stop to investigate. The police were called. They found that a dummy had been dressed in men's clothing, a rope tied around the
coal, and auction prices. In
quence, may be said to prevail.' It does not make much difference as to quality. AH coal looks alike to the would-be purchaser who needs it. The railroads are storing in great quaintlties. The only exception is the Southeastern, the old Walsh Southern Indiana. It has made an agreement by which the operators have been favored by getting as much coal to market st fancy prices as possible In preference to filling orders at yearly rates from the Southeastern for storage purposes. In return the operators in the Linton field have agreed to give the railroad ths output of the last day before suspension of thirty mines, or about 250 cars. FOUR BURIED IN ONE GRAVE. The funerals of Al Brown of Spencer; Emmitt Williams of Kansas City, Kas.; Jess Rogers of Anderson, and Martin Warden of New Albany, bottle blowers, who were killed last Monday night In a railroad accident at Elletts-
ville, Ind., were held at the Christian church Thursday afternoon. The Red Men, of which Rogers was a member in Sims, Ind., together with the employee of the bottle factory, attended in a bo'dy. More, than 50 people were present. The burial was in one grave. HUNTERS BOAT CAPSIZES.

A number of High School students have been expelled because they refuse to resign from clubs. The Sullivan School Board and Superintendent Curtis are waging war en the so-called High School fraternities at Sullivan under a rule which forbids such organlatlons. Friday Superintendent
Curtis notified all High School students I to sign a written withdrawal from their

One of tho most strenuous political campaigns in Arkansas will end with the democratic primaries on Xfarch 37, when candidates will be' nominated for United States senator and governor and other state officers. Tr.c nominations will be equivalent to election. , Plain every-day potatoes may be tho deciding factor in the contest between Taft and Roosevelt for the support of the republicans of Mien. Potato raising Is almost the sole industry of Aroostock county, which is the strongeat republican county in the stt. The Roosevelt managers believe they will have the solid support of the county, since President Taft displeased tho farmers there by his reciprocity policy.
