A CHANCE FOR HOD. Hod Stlllwell the Anderson fixer is
said to be slated for an address at the third party convention in Hammond.
Hod is the side kick of Ed Lee the
bell-wether bull moose of Indiana. It
is he who sought to get Taft dele
gates to the national convention to break their pledges by promises of
patronage if they would vote for
Roosevelt.
Stillwell is sadly disappointed be
cause so far he has not succeeded In
being appointed or nominated for
office on any bull moose ticket in Indiana.
Let Hod take heart, there may be
an office for him in Lake county
somewhere. He'd make a lovely county commissioner for instance. You know why. $

CEXSCRES THIS COUPLH. To the Editor. Concerning the transgression of Rev. G. W. Alley, pastor of the Methodist church at Royal Center, Ind., and Mrs. Lena Wendling of a nearby town. Rev. Alley was at one tirne a respected minister of Montgomery county This vlle,conduct of men and women, especially In high standing. Is becoming a little bit too common and should be dealt with more severely. A minister of the gospel who is expected to lead his flock in the straight and narrow way both by precept and example, should not be let loose quite so lightly as wa-s this man, and aa to Mrs. Wendling, a mother to whotn Ood had entrusted five children and whose every act of her life should be such that her children could do likewise and not go astray, she too should be
punished in equal magnitude with this
"wolf in sheep's clothing."
I notice that Rev. Alley grew very
penitent when he was caught. In all
probability had he continued to evade detection he would have contlnuedvhis maneuvers.
The effrontery of Mrs. Wendling. who
said to the police, "this is not the first time we have been in Kokomo," is beyond common decency, and she deserve to be punished to the full limit
of the law. She tried to throw the
blame all on the minister and said, "it was all his fault." I would like to ask
Mrs. Wendling how It happened that
Alley selected her to go with him. She
certainly Was not walking In the
straight and narrow way or he would
not have approached her In this vile way and even if he had, why did she not resist his first insinuation with bitter vehemence. The word "thou" Is used in the commandment, not he nor she, consequently one sex Is Just as guilty as the other whoever transgresses. A fine of a few dollars is not sufficient punishment for Buch diabolical conduct. Like men running blind tigers and the big grafters In monopolies they laugh in their sleeve at the leniency of the courts, pay their fines and go ahead with their meaness and make enough In the next few hours to pay their fine and have a surplus left. A man or woman either would much rather give up his or her money than their liberty, and until they are pun-, lshed by imprisonment a few months, they will continue to sin more and more. Such men as Rev. Alley and Cissel impede the growth of Christianity more than all the skeptics and lnfedils together. This Is also true of municipal reform . and civic league work. Too many are trying to purify others when they are Impure themselves. This makes reform work for the good men and women '(which are numbered by the hundreds) twice as Irksome as it otherwise would be. From a pyschological standpoint in order to do good one must be good. There is no sin so
out wnat one can atone for It
by getting penitent and forever quit ting It. I sincerely hope these preach
ers and mothers who are so capable of
aoing good In this big world, will con tinue from now on- to live such exem
plary lives that they can truthfully
