the Idea of a serious opposition yes

There are over 6,000 property owners in the city and the majority should rule even if the opposition does grow up to the expectation, of leaders. With all due respect to those opposing the deep sewer It looks as if It will go through and save for Hammond the name of at least being a live city of the Calumet region. The men who oppose this sewer are simply hanging a millstone around the necks of their little children. What is it going to do to Hammond in five years to be deprived of this
improvement? Now look at It seri

PROGRESS DEMANDS CONSTANT GROWTH AND BETTER ORGANIZATION. Growth is not a struggle to avoid
work. It is a struggle to eliminate useless work in order to do better
things.
When life is an effort to avoid
work we have the tramp. When it is to avoid useless work we have the
captain of industry.
The most valuable man in any busiaess is the one whose labor it is to save the economic waste and make
the work of every laborer produce its utmost for the time occupied and tho
materials used.
To make 100 busy men do as much
is 300 busy men did before is a won
derful task. It requires an Edison, a
Bell, or a James J. Hill; and such
men as these are hard workers.
To discover an easier way to do
things is rarely if ever accomplished
by- lazy men Invention is a chronic disease and system Is a passion. To
eliminate labor Is a science, and the
true scientist is not content with one
discovery.
When men eliminate labor to gain ease, they decay and fail. Efficiency is the true goal of elimination; and
business systems are originated by
men who want to do more work.
A system of cost accounting mean3 many hours of labor; but its result is the kind of knowledge that enables a
merchant to rid himself of what is
unnecessary so that he may do effec
tlvely the t'alngs that pay. An in
vention may throw a thousand men
out of work, but it compels them to become adjusted to a new and better
condition and in the end leads t
efficiency.
" PAINLESS BULLETS.
Experiments are being made in this
country with what is called "the nar
cotic bullet." A minute particle of
morphia Is used.
The drug is carried in tiny wells
in the steel jacket of the regulation
army bullet. The inventor asserts
that it in no way interferes with the
effectiveness of the missile.
The slight indentation in the steel acket causes no splintering when it
comes in contact with the bone, and
no deleterious effects will follow, the
unique administration of the drug.
The soldier receiving a slight flesh
wound from the new bullet fights no
more that day; he calmly fctretches
himself on the ground and goes to
sleep.
The man receiving a serious wound
suffers no agony, as the narcotic from
the bullet is absorbed by his system
and he is insensible to pain before he
reaches the hospital.
WHY INDEED?
As the big Shrine convention at
Dallas is now over it may be interest
ing to note that the California
Shriners went on a SDecail train
carrying half a carload of oranges
10,000 packages of raisins, 10,000 packages of figs and 100 cases of wine
to be given away enroute. Sounds
well but why all the fruit?
Scientist declares that all of the angels In heaven are bald-headed.

THE TRUTH ABOl'T KISSING.
(Steubenvllle Dispatch to Philadelphia punctuation
Inquirer.) Real kisses soon become monotonous, according to Mrs. Minnie Slentz, who, in her divorce testimony, said: "Some couples may kiss each other right up until they are sixty, in an attempt to fool themselves into thinking that their kisses have the genuine heart glow of the first month of marriage, but It is ail bosh. Real kissing becomes monotonous during the second year( intermittent from the fourth to the sixth, and stops entirely before the eighth year of married life."

VITAL DIFFERENCE BETWEEN

srvEs.
In pondering the differences that
divide the Republicans from the Pro

however important some of them are
should be left out. Reform of th
representation In Republican national' conventions, for instance, ought to have been provided for years ago. Nobody wanted It so long as "this damned rascal" was seated from the South. Moreover, since progressive-
ism must keep on progressing, who knows if national conventions will not become as obnoxious as State conventions already are to the uncorapromissing absolutists of direct primary legislation? These things belong to the mechanics of government. The division of opinions on vital principles is what counts. The Republican party is progressive, as every living party must be. In the West at least it may be argued plausibly and perhaps soundly that the Republican and the Progressive are not far apart on many theories about what the latter call "social justice," but these, even If the older part is induced to accept the Roosevelt method of deal-
