INSUEGENT DEMOCRACY, Talk about unrest being abroad iu the land! There seems to be but one place where there is rest and that Is six feet below the sod. Down at La fayette the Jackson Club aided and abetted by Insurgent democrats through the Tenth district are plotting wth most excellent chances of success to put the Hon. Charlie Murphy out of business. According to newspaper dispatches: "Soma of the leading Democrats . of Benton county are also in favor of naming a new chairman, Rheno Si. Isherwood, who Is openly joppo'sed Murphy and Taggart. was yesterday selected as the Tippecanoe County chairman, succeeding the late Thomas J. Barnes. "The Durgan men charge that Chairman Murphy, who is a member of tho Public Utilities Commission, came to Lafayette a fewdays before ths city election in November and worked to accomplish the defeat of Durgan and the entire Democratic city ticket. "At the meeting of the county central committee, the nomination of Isherwood was unanimous and now the fight is on to defeat Murphy. Jt is declared that in ths election last month Hammond was the only city in the Tenth, district to elect a Democratic mayor and Chairman Murphy is blamed for this poor showing. "Nearly all of the Democratic newspapers In the ' district are against Murphy and it appears that he will have a hard fight to bs elected chairman. "George 1 Robey, a Benton county editor, says that as Murphy holds a judicial position, he should not ask to be again elected chairman. The Durgan forces here nave been promised support in Lake, Newton, Jasper, White and Porter counties." This fight against Murphy follows the fight on Taggartism and bossism started at South Bend the other day It is growing by leaps and bounds end promises to knock into a cocked hat the republican-progressive row In the meantime Representative J B. Peterson will do well to think twice, Charlie Murphy is his right hand bower. If they do things to Murphy what will they do to Mr Peterson? Down in Jasper county Editor Babcock is Just laying for a whack at both of them. Here In Hammond there is Editor Swalm who according to reports is to be ditched in his postoffice candidacy, for John L. Rhode. Does anyone think for a moment that the editor who has teen bearing the brunt of battle for democracy in this vale of tears for nearly a quarter of a century is going to sit by idly and see them put him down and put? Of course Editor Swaim has frowu , ed on the opposition to Mr. Taggart and will undoubtedly deprecate the anti-Murphy sentiment but if they are going to "hand it" to the news paper man there will be something doing. - THAT Texan who shot two bears and choked one to death probably mistook them for Mexicans.

THE RALLY OF A SHADOW. The thanks of mlllons of down trodden men will be paid to William II., even if the saying attributed to hm, "A real man wears a mustache," was invented for him by some foe of smooth-faced ness. It is not given to all to be as beautiful, for example, as the Hon. Josephus Daniels or eighteenth century swells in engravings and miniatures. Constrained by fashion, how many a clock stopping phiz that needs the discreet decoration of a muotacne appears harsh, Volseian, a buffet to aesthetics. a pain to others and presumably to its owner. W speak in no reactionary sense. but the new freedom from facial shadows is abused. Without regard to reil or Jdeal men, this American and English smoothness Is monotonous. Even some Latins of lands where the offtur is king have stipped their lineaments. It Is not to be expected that the old times will return when a mustache was the hope of ingenuous youth and love's young dream; the cause may be lost in spite ' of v th Is brave German rally. It is darkly said by anthropolog ists that as Triumphant Gynocraey goes its relentless way the plumes that used to flutter from the new sandpapered "mug" of Mere Man must wave and waggle over lovelier lips, already opened wide to pronounce his doom. It Is very like that Real Man must become as obsolete as centaurs or tbe Constitution,-r-New York Sun. IT is estimated that only pne per son In two hundred will be to pay the income tax. But how many narrow escapes will there be? THERE Is some consolation In the announcement that vests are to be worn by women. They dont' hook up the hack. SMUGGLING MUST STOP. Judge Hunt of the U. S. District court of New York has decided that the imposition of fines Is not going to stop women of wealth from smuggling. He, therefore, has decided upon more vigorous measures. In future the smuggler, regardless of sex. will get no mercy if arranged before Judge Hunt. The woman will be sent to prison as quickly as the man. In such a way Judge Hunt sees the only way to put a stop to a practice which is becoming much to common SEASONABLE advice being In order, it might be well to suggest to President Huerta that he do his skip ping early. ivAri AHN rioDson s speecnes are dry. Is that the reason he is a Pro hibitionist, or is it Just the other way round? ' UNNATURAL WAR. A president of the United States once said in Introducing Charles Wagner .the author pf "The Simple Life," tq a Washington audience: lne brutar arrogance of a rich man who looks down upon a poor man because he is poor, and the brutal envy and hatred felt by a poor man toward a rich man merely because he is rich, are at bottom twin manifestations of the same vice," Wars between the classes are merely the results of ignorance. The rich man who considers himself above those who have no money, but afe his superiors in every other respect.

Old-fashioned woman who keeps a few laying hens need, have no fear of not marrying oft her EX-MAYOR Shank of Indianapolis, is now in vaudeville. But there are also many mayors who give vaudeville performances and they are not on the stage, either. LET'S see. Isn't it almost time that she was hanging up the mistletoe? JUDGING from the literary qualities of his message to congress, must saythat President Wilson undoubtedly was very attentive in writing his compositions when he was a school boy. and the poor man who envies those who have done exactly what he would have done in like circum-stances--both of these are dissatisfied with th.e rest of the world merely because they are living unnatural lives, and are ignorant of the things that bring real happiness. The brutalty that marks both ends of society is the world's greatest fault. Away with it! The rich and the poor, the capitalist and the laborer, must help each other. Let us not kill the goose that lays the galden gg by fighting the man who gives us employment or the man whom we employ. Let us remember the famous" saying of President McKinley, that the man ,who would set labor and capital at war against each other, is the enemy of "both. Let us cease . the unnatural war, so that we may live and love. Let us be natural. ; MANEUVERING along the Rio Grande is getting to be something of a habit with the United States army.

EASY TO GUESS. A story comes from a Kansas farm about thieves taking laying hens and leaving an auto instead. In three months the farmer will learn who is ahead on this deal.

"GETTING" A MAN. 'Devilish ingenuity" best describes the Western methods of "getting" a man killer who "had slain six in twelve days in Utah. The fugitive, a Mexican named Ralph kopea, took refuge in a mine, and the Sheriff, not willing to sacrifice more lives by sending any of his deputies through the galleries underground, where they could be picked off, put a guari at every exit, boarded them up and then pumped sulphur fumes and red pepper into the mine

NEW HAVEN railroad has abandoned its idea of model farms to teach the farmers obiect lessons. New Haven is evidently convinced that it can learn a few object lessons on safe railroading. DEM0CEATS fear tht income tax may net make up dehicit of low tariff. Can't we induce Judge Landis to fine the Standard Oil another $25,000,000. for forty-eight hours. Lopez refused to be smoked out and is presumably dead. It's an awful thing to contemplate, recalling Gilbert's boiling in oil as something "lingering and humorous." There's a bit of grim satisfaction though, in reflecting that there are still spots on earth where, when they start to get a murderer, they get him, and there's no appeal, no law s delay and they make few mistakes at that And in this same spot it may be re marked with truth that there is mighty little pardoning done. HIGH cost of living note: A $500 Persian cat ran away in Washington wearing a $1,000 turquoise and gold collar. - WHY GO OUTSIDE. Valparaiso professor lectured in Gary last night on the "Machinery of Municipal Government." Why. does Gary have to get out side talent to do this? There's the Hon.

SHANK STAGE FEIGHT VICTIM Ex-Mayor Blames Blushes on Girls in Wings. . Kansas City, Mo., Dec. 8. Mayor Lew Shank of Indianapolis made his debut yesterday in vaudeville and got stage fright. He blushed and stammered, saying it was the spotlight and the proximity of girls in the wings. He finally "found himself and told of his efforts to fight high living cost.

cubes are concentrated meat essence and of high nutritive value has been shattered by the department of agriculture, which says that while they are valuable stimulants, they have little or no real food value and are relatively expensive in comparison with home made broths and soups. "The ordinary commercial bouillon cubes," the bulletin says, "consist of from one-half to three-fourths table salt. As they range in price from 10 to 20 cents an ounce, purchasers of these cubes are buying salt at a high price. The cubes do contain a small amount of protein (musclii building material) in addition to their stimulating properties, and the makers of most of the cubes make no advertised claim that they are concentrated beef broth or essence. "However, many housewives believe they are and that they possess high nutritive values, especially for invalids. This is' not the case. The fact that the cubes sell for from 1 to 2 cents each, and each cube makes a cip of broth, misleads the housewife into the belief that she is obtaining meat, extract cheaply when really she is buying It In an expensive form." "EVERY SEAL A BULLET AGAINST TUBERCULOSIS" Miss Mary Lindley, general secretary of the East Chicago-Indiana ' Harbor Associated Charities, who has been named as sales manager for the Gary, East Chicago and Indiana Harbor Christmas seal campaign, was In Gary today. The seals in Gary will be sold by the Woman's club and the Associated Charities. An efTort will be made to sell $1,004 worth, the local societies getting; a good percentage. Associated in the enterprise in Lake county will be assistance from Hammond and Whiting. The Woman's club will take up the work in the former place and Dr. Lauer at the oil city. It will be the endeavor to raise enough money to hire a trained nurse to look after tuberculosis cases. Seals will be on sale In stores, drug Htores and at the postofflce. Lodges, churches and labor unions will be asked to assist. The seals are placed on letters, gift packages, etc., and cost a penny each. ADVERTISING I'ATS, IIP ITS IS TUB TIM US, - - '
