BETTER IATE THAN NEVER. Our attention has been called to one of those ever gentle and tender offerings from the cherished pen of Oov. Marshall's local oil inspector and Mayor Smalley's city printer. We gather from a labored perusal of the fantastic outburst that the city administration i punching it up a little. Report has it that the 1. o. I. was warned if he didn't get busv and de

fend the city administration, it would be found necessary to advertise for bids for the city printing and that p. d. rj. There really is no excuse for such belated defense of Sob rooter when he was appointed so long ago that people had forgotten all about it.

The city administration is entitled

other. Yet for varied effect upon the community let us cite two cases. A citizen of a town engaged on sundry evenings in the year in playing a game called "bridge." He sharf l it with some of his friends, quietly and unostentatiously, and with apparent enjoyment to all who participated. Another citizen, who lived not many doors away, returned home after his toil and played loudly and not always harmoniously upon a cornet. Unthinkingly handled, a cornet tan make almost as much noise as the whistle of a tugboat.

The citizen who played bridge lil not complain of the citizen who played the cornet, but the cilizen who played the cornet stood up in public and bitterly criticised the citizen who laved bridge for doing so. No moral is drawn to this recital of facts. They are simply adduced as showing the obstinacies of human nature. We might add, however, that the citizen who played upon the cornet, drew so much attention upon himself that ultimately small boys serenaded him by beating upon tin pans, and they escaped punishment. The good are sometimes rewarded.

than it is getting and there iro scoreof democrats who say so.

ANYWAY it isn't much of a vacation for poor Gov. Wilson. Kverytime the screw makes a revolution, he is approaching h.ia trouble with the piecounter warmers that much faster.

THE POWER OF THE PRESS. It might be well for some of the city administrations in this district to read carefully the words of Mayor

Brading of Milwaukee, Wis., in a!

strong interview on "the administration and the press" wherein he says; "The press of any city, if it really has the best interests of that city constantly in mind, will keep in the closest possible touch with the administration of the municipality. "Each Friday afternoon in tb miyor's office there is a conference of elective officers, department heads and counoilmen at which city aTairs, present and future, are discussed. "These conferences are open to newspaper men. It has been found too, that the boys of the press often make valuable suggestions, and that they never spoil any projeet, as so often has been done In the past by premature publication. In this way the reporters are kept constantly in touch with Innermost details of city business. "The power of the press is proverbial. And that administration which makes it a point to see that this power is properly directed has an asset which cannot be too highly prized. The press is i lgh t - mi nil -ed, nlnetv-ninei times out of a hun

dred, so I say to city officials who have yet to find intelligent co-operation from the newspapers rf tehir cities, why should administrations lie prilled, hampered or left to fight battles '.maided, when co-operation can so easily be attained by impressing upon reporters and editors the fact that they can and must aid their public servants to the extent of properly presenting the news from the city hall?"

guests a number of salesmen and merchants from other cities and other states. About 150 were present." "I believe the average shoe business gets sick," said Mr. Kinnear, ' and when U does it needs a doctor. The case must be carefully studied." Not only rntst attention be paid to the details of the stock, but every foot must be individually fitted, said Mr. Kinnear. He then told the story of his own advertising, saying1 he uses repeatedly in his windows 5n Marion and in his advertising in the newspapers, the phrase, "Shoes scientifically fitted." Mr. Kinnear has the right idea exactly. There is no longer any question relative to the value of advertising. The question is how each man can best apply it to his own business. The successful business man makes advertising the iife blood

of his affairs. The purpose of advertising is to stimulate business by acquainting the public with what wares cne has to offer. The merchant who takes advantage of its help is laying the foundation for a successful business. Torre Haute Tribune.

IF you hear anything fall with a loud crash, be not afraid. It will probably lie just Constantinople.

AMBASSADOR James Hryce has boon compelled to resign in order to take care of his literary duties. Sorry. We know what it is to be called from a hospitable little game to finish some pressing literary labor suggested by a bad-tempered city editor who ought to be in bed.

PERHAPS A SPECIAL CHARTER. The rapid growth of Gary which has more than once tangled up the red tape of the postoffice department at Washington is now being officially recognized by the state of Indiana. By statute, in the fourth class of cities with fourth class powers the

chief of the state board of accounts, Mr. Dehority, admits that the steel city should be in the second class. It has a population of more than 33,000 and under the present law it cannot be advanced to a higher class until the federal census of 1920. The city carries on the public works business of a first class city and its police work is of corresponding magnitude. Unless something is done, unles Gary's government gets more authori-

F1ND THE MORAL. Sometimes it is entirely unnecessary to say much in an editorial simply the facts and let the reader think his own editorial. In 1S92 a famous New York dramatic critic said of a then reigning sensation: "Without doubt the youngest

actress to deserve a laurel wreath is Miss Oive Berkley. Although not yet 16 years old, she showed a depth of feeling, when she penetrated the cold and classic role of the statue Galatea, that. was as artistic as it was delightful. Her Galatea, compared favorably with the Galatea of Mrs. Langtry. It is just possible that in Miss P.erkley we have a successor to Miss Andersonwho knows?" Then the great white lights of that

great white way the moth, the butterfly and the flame the decensus Avernus. The other day a woman was arrested in New York. She had slid from , the top of the white light toboggan. Let the dispatches tell the rest : "When she was arrested in the department store she said she had slept in Bryant Park for three nights and lad been without food

for three days. A skirt and jacket was all she wore. Her "stockings" prove to have been painted on her li'KS with shoe blacking." Who was it? It was Olive Berkley fifteen years ago the prettiest, show girl in New York.

THK Christian soldiers will continue to march onward hut it won't be to Oyster Hay, L .1. It will simply be a little hike to Princeton, N. J.

LIKE HIS SPIRIT. Ordinarily this ought to po on the sporting page but sometimes those fo'whom that is intended always skip the red-blood page nd turn to the welsh rarebit on this. New York is having an international billiard contest and among the players is a Japanese Kodji Yamada. Yamadn is a splendid player. He is a true sportsman. In playing his maiden game he was defeated, but he accepted his defeat most gracefully. He never said a word about a "frame-up." How different.

Whiting and Hammond. Hut up here In north township we! have a way of closing up streets no

matter how important they are without getting any compensation for them or any alternative improvements such as viaducts or subways. And so when the Haiti more & Ohio and Calumet Terminal railroad wanted to build yards and shops in East Chicago they had no difficulty in having White Oak avenue closed. Now

if a viaduct is built the expense will have to be bourn by the municipality or the county.

Northwestern Iron company and! there may be a gate on that street. In this event the street will serve! the purpose of gathering op all of J the employes who live in East Chi-i

They were arrested last night in a raid on a house in East Laporte, in whicn twenty-five persons were taken. The police have been

The two boys went to the woods aril gathered pecans. When starting home, in picking up the shotgun, the older boy accidentally discharged the piece, the contents striking the younger brother in the neck, inflicting injuries from which he died within thirty minutes.
