MOVE UP THE PRIMARIES. About the most sensible suggestion for a feature of the state legislative ; r.Rrara originates from this county: passing a bill that would move the oa:e for primaries from March until early inthe fall. We have long preached of the insidiousness of primaries the system of selecting candidates hv lottery, of nraotirulK- lm rrinir nrnr men TIia
situation can be ameliorated by barring long campaigns. Two election peri-.j
od3 s-o widely separated in the same year are a bad thing. The state is just tecovering from one strenuous campaign and neither voters nor aspirants pre in a mood to plunge into the baltle leading up to the.city primaries a few months hence.

DOWN COMES THE PHONES. The half will never be told about the presidential campaign just past. The other day they dismantled the telephones in the National Republican headquarters in Fifth avenue. New York. Out of the front room on the fourteenth floor of the building they took one telephone that ought to be preserved and sent, say, to the Smithsonian instiuition. It was one end of the private wire that ran to the place on the north shore of Long Island, which a few years ago wa's designated by Martin Littleton as Blue Point, but is better known as Oyster Ray. The transmitter lookedj as if a piece had been bitten out of it. There was another wire in the same headquarters tha some one ought to have saved. It must have been worth its weight in gold. Half a dozen times in the last few days it has been connected up with some place in California. Sacramento probably. It was used for from five to forty minutes a p. stretch, and the rate is $20.10 for the first three minutes.
IF Till-; G. . V. ever ets in power again we see where California is going to be handed over to the Japs.

ARABIA, THE NEW NATtON. If the cables from Aden that the Kingdom of Arabia is the latest in the i f..niily of nations are reliable, it is probable English influence had some-j thing to do with the birth of the new state. Arabia has been more or les 1 under the suzereignty of the Turks, of the .domination of native chieftain?,! and there have been set up several independent kingdoms and principalities,
notably Oman, Xejed and Sljehr. Aden is a free port, in the hands of thej
British. The war has stimulated to some extent the geography of the part of the world in which Arabia is located. Yet few people know that Arabia embraces a vast stretch of territory with a population variously estimated to range from 4,n00,0tM) to 12.000.000. fn area it is one-fourth that of the United States or greater than England. France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Servia, Switzerland. Ithly, Koumania, Austria-Hungary and Bulgaria all combined. It would take thirty states the size of Indiana to equal it. If Arabia, one-third of which is a desert, is a sorry state today and the home of Islam, there was a time when Arab arts, sciences and literature' flourished to the benefit of the world. "At a time when learning found scarcely anywhere else a place of rest and encouragement, the Arabians employed themselves in collecting and diffusing it V Their learning lent new life to Spain and the rest of Europe. Arabians were the geographers of the middle ages and the country was the home of great libraries and universities, the latter housing men eminent in astronomy, physics,, mathematics, logic, medicine, metaphysics, literature and theology. But Arabia's glory of the middle ages has been succeeded by the dismal intellectual poverty of the latter centuries.
CHILDREN will get a little forward these days. .. Columbus, Ind., boy of five who was spanked by his daddy promptly got a gun and winged the old man.
OH. IF we could only get back to tne good old days when potatoes were J1.S0, butter 40 cents, round steak 27 cents, and shoes only $4.50!
AS TO THE KNIFING OF HUGHES AND GOODRICH. Our neighbor, the Gary Tribune, is demanding the nomination of Hughes :p lf20. However, if the republican party in Gary is burdened with the same leadership as it has now, Mr. Hughes will do worse than he did this time carrying the town by 106 votes instead of 4.O00. If the republican party in Lake county wants to amount to anything it v.i!! cut loose from the treacherous slag and steel politics of the Gary bosses. The rank and file of the party workers in Gary are demanding it and the near wreck of the G. O. P. ship in this election have ripened the-steel workers for a rebellion.
LITERATURE'S POOR REWARDS. We received a notice from the postmaster at Rogers to discontinue The Bod to a wealthy citizen. AVe have given this man and his family a number of nice notices in the columns of thi3 paper and some of them -were so well written that they Appeared not only in the dailies of this state, but were even copied by the New York dailies. A son won high honors at college; he wrote him up in our. best style; wnother member of the family married we published a column write-up of the wedding; two of the family had been in the hospital each got r- consoling notice ftam The Pod. If they had undertaken to buy all this with ii oney they would have failed. It costs money to put the notices in type and money to bur the paper to print them on. For this expenditure- of money we receive a discourteous notice, on his part, from the postmaster to discontinue his paper. Under the circumstances, hid he been as good as he thinks himself to he, he would have written and asked the amount he was in arrearage and would have sent the little 30 t ents he owed on the paper along with a courteous request, to discontinue it. The trouble with these people is that they have some money and a little of the education that money can buy and they think they are better than other people and it is their business to show other people how smart they are. Well, i; just makes us tired, that's all: Ped Ridge Pod.
