The Wathena (Kan.) Times runs this advertisement: "To the Meddlers I sold my house and suburban vraci oi auout nve acres to jvirs. Mary Stoeckler a few days ago on terms that were entirely satisfactory fand agreeable to both of us. Location, situation and suitableness for her all considered, probably it was as good a buy as she is likely to make and was putting her money where it would not get away from her and where it Insured her a home and a living. A written and binding contract was signed, but as soon as it was known about town that the deal had been made certain Jealous and interested parties began knocking, and one took the trouble to send word to a daughter of Mrs. Stoeckler in St. Louis to give her the impression that her mother had been skinned by me. Aa two different men stood ready to buy the land I told Mrs. Stoeckler I did not care to sell to her, under the circumstances, and

she finally reluctantly returned the contract. If the meddlers who are ao ready to butt In on the business affairs of others have any objections to me selling this property to some

I one else, I wish they would make it known now, for otherwise I am going to sell it." AFFAIRS IN TANGLE. It would take more than the proverbial Philadelphia lawyers to unravel New York's political tangle, both in the state and city. The gen eral trend of opinion seems to be however, that Tammany Hall 6tands good for a terrific fight if its power upon the state and city government la to be retained after next Novem ber. There are many people who are willing to condone - the alleged wrongs of Governor Sulzer, because he has had the courage to fight leader Charles F. Murphy of Tanfmany Hall. They argue that if Tam many allowed a man to be elected against whom it had so many proofs of wrong doing, then it is time that an end should come to Tammany rule. The newspapers of the city are giving columns of space daily to readers discussing the matter pro and con. In the meantime the city campaign waxes warmer each day. BAB'S GOAT WANDERS, One thing that gets our goat is . having to pay more for articles of produce right hero where they are grown than they are sold for at retail in the cities. Take watermelons, for example. Tho grower will charge you more for a melon, as & rule, if one goes right to his leld for It than he can get for them by the grocer In town and twice or three times as much as he gets when he ships them to the city. With chickens it is about the same, except there Is not so much difference. Rensselaer Democrat. Yes we get you Dab. "Just the same except different." Quite clear! Quite clear! LABOR'S INDEPENDENCE. There Is no more independent voter in this country than the American workingman. He knows his own business. He is not delivered at the noils by any man or set of men. It is amazing that this f.ict has not been apparent ' long ago to the organizers and managers of our great parties. They have cowered and knelt in terror to the so-called "labor vote,", as if It were, an . organized body, cast as one vote, which it is not, never "will be and never can be. The man who works in the shop today may be the roan who owns the shop tomorrow. The business men of this country have been recruited from the ranks of labor. No one delivers their vote and no Mulhalls are needed to trade or barter the ovtes' rights. Leslie's Weekly. G. 0. The P. TAKES WISE STAND, republican party did the proper thing at Its meeting in Hammnnd last Saturday night when it decided to preserve its autonomy In Hammond at least. The party would gain nothing by amalgamating with the progressives, it would have everything to lose. The political situation Is not so desperate in Hammond that all parties, all cliques, all clans, all disgruntled members of the democratic party have to unite to defeat the democratic candidate. The republicans of Hammond will put a clean ticket in the field for the fall elections. It is not so much a mat ter with them of winning as It is of being losing their identity-. The republican, party is more than a name, it represents a principle. The progressive or bull moose party i3 not to be permitted to swallow the republican party tail and hide. The bull moose organization will undoubtedly put a ticket In the field and a three cornered fight will prob ably result. Be that as It may the republicans will have nothing to be ashamed of when the battle is over. NEW YORK NEWSPAPERS ON - THE THAW ESCAPE. Times "What the rich Thaw family could not effect by a succession of legal proceedings, what it was unable to do by bribery of state officials, it has now accomplished uy force." Herald "Scandals In our state Institutions have been so swiftly following each other that literally they 'on one another's heels do tread," but the latest may well cau?e the most serious thought. The state is without a governor and, in sooth, it also seems to be - without much law, or order." Sun 'People have often wondered why nis masterly pecuniary argu ments and the easy collusion with inside and outside frends ho has not taken leg bail before. What cafe is he in? Whom will be kill next?" Wolrd There has never before been so shameless a devotion of great wealth tn riacv'iri 4t,.f fna nn Hohnlf . . . . tv . . . uuv. jvionvc ' KJ ...... of a worthless degenerate as in thls

case. It Is not alone a demoralizing state government, as this case shows and no state institution can hope altogether to escape consequences." American "It may be only a coIncidence, the escapade of Harry K. Thaw from the Matteawan state asylum for the criminal insane at a time when the government of the state is hopelessly demoralized. But such an incident and more like it, may be expected." WILSON HEADED FOR WAR. The London Saturday Review, In a leading article Saturday, saavgely attacks President Wilson's Mexican policy, tl is said President Wilson "unconsciously is playing the game of those in the United States who want control of Mexican politics in order to fill their own pockets." Concluding, the atrlcle says: "If he wishes to plunge his own country into a war that would last tor years, drive Mexico back Into anarchy and paly tho : game of his own political enemies, he will continue his present policy and try to break down the Huerta regime. On the other side is the alternative of accepting a trifling reverse of policy. Recognizing facts, he will have to adopt one policy or the other. Neither may be( pleasant, but there can be no doubt which one is recommended by humanity and common sense. B. & 0. ENTERPRISE. The Baltimore & Ohio proposition to carry a lunch-counter car on a day coach excursion train trom this section to Atlantic City will doubtlees prove an entire success and set railroad circles buzzing with the query. Why didn't we think of it before? Excursionists who cannot afford to ride in Pullman coaches cannot afford to ride in Pullman coaches cannot afford to dine in Pullman diners. The buffet car fits the democratic simplicity of the day coach train, and if its prices are on a scale commensurate with its' surroundings It will, in the time-honored language of the editorial sanctum, "fill a longfelt want." Under the Williard administra tion, Baltimore & Ohio policies have been radically changed. Connellsville Courier. NEW ALLOYS. In their last official report the chemists to the American Institute of Metals mention three new alloys among the various items oj! recent progress in the metal industry. A French patent has recently been issued covering the production of two types of alleys from copper, zinc and silicon, which are claimed to possess great tenacity, resistance to acids and alkalies, and to be capable of being rolle Unto finished Shapes. Another new patented alloy 3s composed of Iron, nickel and copper, which is claimed to be non-corrosive. malleable, of great tensile strength, and capable of being rolled, drawn rii no cf I .........

TIMES BUREAU. AT STATE CAPITAL. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 25 More consternation has been thrown in the camp of the pie hungry Democrats by the news that has come from Washington that the administration has about decided to keep Newton Gilbert, formerly of Fort Wayne, as one of the members of the Philippine commission, at a salary of 316,000 a year. Some of them are up In arms because they say that If Indiana Is to have a member cf that commission he should be a Democrat instead of a Republican. The Republican ' member, they say, could as well be appointed from some Republican or Progressive state where It would not make any difference, as far as political effect was concerned. They point out that It would be a fine thing for Indiana If a Democrat were appointed to this fat Job. , Coming so close on the announce ment of the appointment by the Interstate Commerce Commission of De arttt V. Moore, an Indianapolis Republican, as one of the appraisers of rail road properties at a salary of $6,000 a year, the news about uiiDert nas caused some of the Democrats to sit up and take notice. It Is being hinted rather strongly that the administration Is not doing all it should do to make places for the "boys" that fight In the trenches and burn political gun powder in campaign time. The announcement that State Senator Harry N. Grube, of Plymouth, may become a candidate for the Democratic nomination for clerk of the Supreme Court against J. Fred France of Huntington, also has caused some comment. Fred C. Felck, of Garrett, also is said to be a candidate for the place, aa well as Charles McCullough, ot Brazil. Senator Grube. it I pointed out, may prove to be a troublesome candidate. Inasmuch as he stands high with labor In the state, but France's friends !n slst that they will give Grube a trimming, along with the rest of the candidates, if any more come out. They say France also Is strong with labor, and that he can overcome anything that any other candidate may start along that line. Grube is a member of the commis sion created by the legislature at winter to study the question of the proper length of the work day for been patented In Germany which consists of the addition ot five per cent metallic cerium to an alloy of manganese and antimony. The invejntor claims' excellent pyrophorlc properties for this alloy, which is essentially different from the cther alloys) of this type In which cerium is the main source Of the pyrophbric characteristics.

women. He supported the effort maJ last winter to establish a nine houf day for women workers, but tha bill was defeated. Frank M. Kistler, . of , , Logansport, state senator from Cass county, hai been in Washington for the last fevi days, and this has given rise to th report that he is a candidate for appointment as United States district marshal for Indiana. His name hatbeen mentioned several times before, but there is nothing in the dope sheet that seems to make his a candidate. He has never traned with the faction of tbe party that Is now In power at Washington, although the faction in control in Indiana probably would b well satisfied to see him In that position. Governor Ralston has returned front his vacation with Thomas Taggart full of enthusiasm over tbe subject of good roads. He saw such fine roads in Massachusetts and found them to b So well built that they attracted fcli attention, and he says that he Is going to make a study of the subject and that he will have something to say to the next legislature on that subject. He says Indiana does .not get the same amount of wear out of Its toads thai Massachusetts gets, and that he cannot see any reason why this should b the case. He thinks that it Massa

chusetts ' gets roads that will last ter years Indiana, with Its wealth of road building material, ought to get as good roads. Highway legislation promises to be one of the leading matters before the legislature of 1915. It was a prominent subject last winter, and efforts were made to pass a highway commission bill and to make other improvements in the road laws. Most of these efforts failed, however, the only bit of beneficial road legislation coming out of the Legislature being the law which permits & taxpayer to work out road taxes up to the amount of $20, but no more, in any one township. All excess of $20 in any one townhslp has to be paid in cash, thus doing away with the old time system of graft In farming out road taxes to contractors. The advocates of better roads, however, Insist that they propose to continue the fight and that they will accomplish something worth while at the next session. to House that Carnegie armour plate was refectlve. 1904 -Japanese driven out of Keekwan fort. y912 Administration at Washington holds serious conference over situation in Nicaragua.
