A reader puts the f&llowing ques tions at us and wants answers We confess our ignorance and absolute Inability to answer1 them. Probably you can. Here they are: Try them If a man call thirty or forty re putable people liars, who Is probably the liar? If a man swears by all that Is holy that he will not accept a third term, is one who will quibble to get out of It honest enough to follow? : f ' . i ' . If the whole people are anxious for Teddy, why did it take over a million dollars to get out less than 25 per cent of the people- to vote for him in the late primaries? Why are those trusts, whose cases will probably come up In the next administration so anxious to have Teddy elected? If he should be elected, will the Steel trust find him as willing a tool as H did before? If a man is a thief who uses the "machine" to keep his delegates, what Is a man who tries to buy those delegates or who tries to appropriate electors who were elected to vote for another? If Teddy kills the Progressive party in Idaho and In other states. Is Teddy fighting for the principles of the party or for Teddy? Is there a single person In the whole United States who believes that Teddy cares enough for principles to stand aside and let some other man lead the Progressive party? NEW Jersey man has started a bed-bug farm and want3 healthy specimens. If he will enclose a twocent stamp we will send him the names ot some hotels around here that have the healthiest specimens that ever crossed a counter-pane BY the way .speaking of hand-1 picked delegates and representing the will of the people what conven tion named Tom Bauer of Lafayette and Jesse Wilson of Hammond as delegates to the Bull Moose conven-l tion. axwai since wown roint. xi to keep pace witn otner cities tnat have them ANOTHER DARLING ACT. An interesting correspondence Is noted in the Jasper County Democrat this week between H. H. Darling a member of Gov. Marshall's pardoning board and the editor of the Demo crat. Darling takes umbrage because the newspaper criticized the release of Bader the convicted bridge V.r -C-.V 1 1 Tn -II gestion ana r.anor tsapcocK tnougn himself a democrat proceeds to call Darling to the queen's taste and! Bhows up the release of the convicted man. Were Marshall and Darling to continue in power in this state for another four years, there wouldn't be any need of prisons for these two men would open up the prison gates! and release all the murderers and thlevea " confined there.

And all my spirit as a flame Of keen desire, across the skies. Swiftly, and yet in vain, replies. Amid the dasslemont of day.

Yet aaothlnar at a summer sea. Till with Its rhythm I sink to rest My soul asleep upon Love's breast. William Struthers In the Boston Trsnserlpt. the spunk of the Jasper County Democrat for it is perfectly right in its criticism of Darling. VERSATILE CESARE. Cesare, guess that is the way he spells his name, makes his living drawing cartoons and you have seen a good many of them if you read the papers and magazines. For some editors he makes pictures represent ing Roosevelt as a regular skinflint Collier's Weekly has him portray the ' r immoriai x. n. as me acme oi an that is good and holy. It has even happened that the opposite in caricatures of the colonel has ap peared in different publications on the same day by the same cartoonist. OUR idea of the limit of kindness and patience is Johnny Fitzgerald of the Hammond Distillery teaching five Bohemians at once with ten balls and only one putting iron in the crowd how to hole in. BEVERIDGE is to campaign in every city In the state. We have a picture of the thunderous enthusi asm that win greet mm when he gets off the Monon in Hammond. IN the meantime Supt. Heighway is getting a lot of sweet young pedagogues together to show them the most approved methods in teaching young ideas how to shoot. WE CANNOT HELP. THE TIMES acknowledges tbe rereipt of an appeal for funds from the Democratic national committee but regrets that it will not be able to push the good work for Woodrow Wilson as enthusiastically as it might. The appeal Is a strong one and some of it's pertinent statements are: Before opening contribution column write a strong editorial calling attention to the plan and the work contemplated. By personal interview 'phone and letter have a nice list of Democrats ready to start off with large sub scripttons, Then open the column with other editorial appeal followed with tnose subscriptions as an en thusiastic "starter." Induce party leaders, presidents of-clubs, and public officials to write strong letters calling upon Democrats and Independent citi zens to donate according to their means. Us these letters daily in intro ducing the contribution column Keep sufficient subscriptions in reserve to insure your being able to show Increase every day. We believe the democrats in Indi ana need not strain their pocketbooks this campaign. Tom Tasreart has a Verv laree barrel and the dPmr, cratlc national committee should heave It to Tom IF some of these gallant suffragettes like Jane Adams et al would follow the great bull moose's admonition tnev wouldn't have time to do anything but have children. uuiukjCj is losing its vogue ac cording to a fashionable hostess Well it certainlv Is harH t i. . , , IWnat IS trump when the stnrlr lrpon. I " AND dear friend there la a lot of ! watered stock in tbe sea of specula tion BLACK OAK AND THE TIMES Black Oak, down in the Little Calumet bottoms, has broken into I print again. The only time when

Black Oak breaks into print is when somebody gets away from the-Gary police. Then they' go to Black Oak. And this is a bad place for them to go to for Coaatable Nlmetz is always onthe t Job ! and Neighbor Scheidfs telephone is always ready

for service, day and night. If those who are eluding the cops knew that Black Oak is a veritable spider's web they would seek other havens of refuge. Apparently a place far from the noise of the outside world and where the good folk living there know nothing of what is going on elsewhere. Black, Oak is just the opposite of this. Everybody reads THE TIMES there. CURIOSITY is said to be a bad trait but we would like to know how Woodrow Wilson could have made a stronger bid for the support of the interests than he did. THAT Lake County merchants are going to do the biggest fall business in their history is a cinch if they will only go out after the business and advertise, ' THE freakiest thing in the world is an Indiana Harbor cyclone. It will pull a nail out of a clapboard or drive a feather through a cook Move. It is all the same. SEND HIM TO CONGRESS. It does one's heart good in these days of political travail to read the post-convention statement issued by Col. Charles Arthur Carlisle of South Bend after he was beaten for the noimnation by Col. Durbin of Anderson. He says: "I am a better Republican today than ever before In my life. I believe In my party and the men who affiliate with it. I know the leaders are honest and pure and statesmanlike. I am glad that I could have the oportunlty of testwins the real value of these great party leaders and determine for myself If they were all bad and Impure and corrupt. "I lostv the victory of the nomination, but I won a great satisfaction to" my own conscience that , our party leaders represent the highest type of honor, integrity and value as Republicans, and as good citizens, who serve un selfishly In a great cause. It's the principles of the Republican party which these men fight for, the traditional good of the party that Inspires them, and I failed to find a man who is not willing to help you and , me make our party a greater value , to the tax payer, the home, the state and the nation. "In my defeat I won victory. I never expect to be called upon again to serve my conscience and my party in such a manner, but this experience will run all through my life because It gave me a close opportunity for a study of man, power, party and principle, and my confidence in my party and its principles and the men back of It Is profoundly convinced." Contrast with this statement the attitude of the soreheads who have lost out and copped to the other parties after the republican party has honored them with office and patronage. It Is too bad that the republican party hasn t more men like Col. Car lisle. It is too bad that the Thlr teenth District cannot run him for congress on the republican ticket v nat a splendid congressman he would make and how, proud Indiana would be of him. A MAN ought never to fool him self by trying to make others believe he thinks certain things when he himself knows that he doesn't. UATTLESHIP economy Is the worst kind. It doesnf pay to be cheap in building battleships as Spain can testify. YOU can generally bank on it that the man who makes no mistakes seldom does anything for which he can be praised. AS GOOD AS ANY. Well we believe that Mineral Springs will make just as cute an Armageddon as you can find anywhere, providing Bros. A. F. and T. E. can get Charley Davidson to have it rolled up at Oyster Bay and shipped to the springs on a flat car. And while starting a little Armageddon there might also rig up a San Juan hill. WE believe it was George Bernard Shaw who said: "A man cannot help his, relations but he's to blame for his whiskers. V IN other words, about the only way to call Charley Davidson off would be to give him another post mastership. , almusi time ror us to harp on that chestnutty quip about the Sox i pulling up a little.

WHAT IT WILL DO. One of the things the new party will do in Indiana is to make it possible for eleven distinct promises to eleven different men to be satisfied with one postofflee. It will also pass a law making the three thousand dollar note Dr. Good holds with Fred Landls' name attached, legal tender for at least a nickel's worth of turnips. The Eleventh district deserves this recognition, in addition to three names on the assistant llquocratlc ballot. Marlon Chronicle. Yes 'it will do more than that. It will line up the soreheads all over the state who couldn't be elected or appointed to office. It will give the republican party a chance to rid itself of such deadwood that has beeu hanging around its neck like a millstone for these many years.

It started in Lake county and then went to Porter county; from there it went to La Porte county and now it keeps going right across the state. Fort Wayne papers might be on the lookout. eastern newspapers refers to a prince visiting at Newport as being the third most important man in Egypt. This is about as an Important a job as being second man In Gary. HAVE received a tract from Pastor Russell stating that -hell isn't a lake of fire and brimstone as Is popularly supposed. Well If it is even as tern pestuous as old Lake Michigan Is at times, we don't want to have nothing to do with it. "MR. J. F. O'PONNELL, one of the live wires of the McHie Scotten Tobac co company, Detroit, who has charge of Lake county, etc." From The Times. Must be some mistake, somewhere. Al ways .understood that Tim Englehart had Lake county well in hand. HOW would you like to be a hard working grocery-man, butcher, or cheese dealer, and after having worked your head off for the Great Rough Rider to find that his platform now ad vocates the .elimination of the middle men? No wonder the grocers are In despair, butter gone up, and canning peaches few. A. F. KNOTTS: The subject of this sketch is sometimes referred to as Armanis or Brother A. F. Such of the religiously inclined who follow the chief shepherd in the holy ways of Armageddon prefer to call him Armanis. It is an apostolic sound. However, those who are in on the Mineral Springs race track deal, look down upon the Armageddon followers In the same way as a gold brick dealer does on a La Porte county farmer, affectionately call him Brother A. F. Armanis is a versatile cuss. He Is king of Gary, ruling through a victory who is better known to fame as Brother Tom. Brother A. F. is also a lawyer and formerly derived most of his fees defending Brother Tom In the courts, and getting a practice around Ham mond. However, of late Tom has got wise-to himself and hasn't been copped by the sheriff for several months. Since then Brother A. F. has been forced to make his living promoting racetracks and the Armageddon movement in this county. UNDERSTAND that Crown Point hasj a beauty establishment, xso aouot tne result of seeing some of the Gary Pom-peian-massaged fa-shlonables, who travel down to the county seat on the new traction lines. JUST now Chief Bull Moose A. F. Knotts of the local herd is said to have but two mottoes: "I stand at Armageddon and battle for the Lord"; arid "Hustle along that raco track." A. F. has his time so well divided that it's a wonder that the Lord doesn't get Jealous. .

The men are charged with having illegally disposed of liquor July 4. The arrests are the result of a crusade started by Wabash saloon kepers who have been adhering strictly to the state laws governing the closing of their places. INVOKES CHILD LABOR LAW. A damage suit for $5,000 was filed this eening by Mrs. Bailey Sadcrs against Charles Ousler of Bloomington. The suit is the outgrowth of the death of the 12-year-old son of Mrs. Saders, who was killer last week, while assisting Ousler in hay harvest. It is aleged that the employment of the boy was prohibited by the Indiana child labor laws and that when the ac cident occurred Ousler spent his time In trying to save a runaway horse, InVtead of the boy'a life. The boy fell In the path of the moving machine and one prong penetrated his heart killing him almost instantly. FALLS DEAD OX THRESHOLD. Capt. W. T.

The Seventh-day Adventists, at a business session, at Kokomo. adopted a resolution providing for the holding of religious liberty institutes in various parts o fthe state between now and the convening of the next session of the Legislature. Edgar A. L. Miller of Indianapolis told the audience that there are dangers ahead for the lovers of religious liberty if they permit the passing of Sunday laws. He said that Sunday laws are religious laws and abridge the liberties of people. From his remarks it seems evident that the Seventh-day Adventists are opposed to Sunday laws, on the ground that they are religious laws. It was explained by one of the workers that the Seventh-day Advertists are not opposed to the closing of saloons on Sunday that on the contrary they favored temperance and would advocate the closing of saloon on every day of the week. MEANS IMPROVED CHANNEL. Special Judge John W. Hanan of Indianapolis today handed down his decision in the Boontrager ditch case, at Rensselaer, finding for the petitioners.
