THE CHICAGO ELECTION. As this newspaper confidently predicted a month ago :-.nd teveral times editorially since, there was nothing to the Chicago mayoral election but "Big BUT Thompson. When the blatant and self-eeeking Hoyna came into the fray that settled it. took enough votes from Schweitzer to mcke Thompson's election a sure thing. Thompson had every daily newspaper in Chicago against hm and. as this newspaper said in March, that fact waa his greatest asset. Chicago voters do not permit their newspapers to toil them how they may or may not vole. It would consume a vast amount of space, of course, to give all the reasons why Thompson won. Weak as he is, he was the strongest rraa. Ilia war stand made him more enemies than any other policy, but he was at least sincere in it, and the fact must not be last sight of that Chicago is the sixth German city in the world. The ludricous feature of the campaign was the amazingly poor race made by Hoyne. Tie ran a miserable third and the staggering blow his bump of conceit got will probably last him for a while. lie met with the usual fate of wind-jammers and trucklers. He was repudiated in a deceive way. Hoyne won't be so free henceforth to come no Lake county making political speeches and criticiz-j ng our city administrations and police departments. !

WHISKEY RESPONSIBLE. The saloon was undoubtedly responsible for the death of Tom Fonto, the Hammond Italian who whs shot by Private Joe Marino last Saturday nlpht to protect his own life.

That FontO Would hav Vill.l tarlnn

the burden of testimony. The bullets in Marino's army Colt were the only thing that stood between him and eternity. Fonto had been over in West Hammond with a party

of friends on a drinking bout. Ordinarily not a mean dispositioned chap, Fonto when In his cups wns abusive. He was profane and he was dangerous. Marino af hjs friend. He was payiEg a visit In Fonto's home and prior to the tragedy had prayed the members of the party not to make so much noise. Ih evtn, whin Fonto got ugly and threatening, asked a neighbor to call the police, but the demon ru in was in Funto's blood mid it was directly responsible for his depth. A few hours after an auto party camo from Chicago

to one of the resorts on the othfr side of the P;at Lint-. It consisted of two young womrn. They drank considerable. Xow in the past life of one of tho;-e young fashionably dressed women there was a f-ecret. ?h hml kept it inviolate for two years. She had entered motherhood and kept !t from her family. Another adopted her child. For two vears she breathed easier. On Sund.iv she drank heavily and blabbed her secret to the worlii.

Today she lies ill at

home. Here are two instances of what whiskev does.

FADING HELIGOLAND. That erudite Journal, the Christian Science Monitor, say that if it is decided to end the menace of H-lirroland

by destroying it. what will happen would natumlly have I happened in time if the kaiser had not protected th ' island against disintegration. When it came into German possession Heligoland was steadily dlminishine. N'ne-' teen centuries ago, when the Roman Tacitus wrote his "Germania," Heligoland was an island some twenty miles long. Later records show that by the year Si') it had '. shrunk to fifteen miles lone by eight miles wide, and that in 1380 it had further shrunk to six miles by four. Composed of red eleyey sandstone that presents liMlf resistance to time and tide, Heligoland had become sr.; small, when Lord Salisbury handed it ov-r to Germany, i that to prevent further shrinkase liv stjri-onnd-nr- t lie !

INDIANA FARMERS NEED 23,0 00 MEN. The stories that many men are out of work does r.3: seem to be borne out by the facte. In some branches rf l-iinan endeavor it is almost impossible to get men - i-ticularly the right kind of men. In some of the high f'-i.s trades it is impossible. I" returning so'.diers are out of work it will present remarkable situation. Perhaps they cannot get the ':'nd cf work just new that they ant, but they need not be idif for a moment if they want to work. For instance. Indiana farmers will need approximate'v 2 .".COO men in the nxt two weeks, said W. P. lirum--Id. federal far mhelp specialist for Indiana, when in'rviewed at Purdue University yesterday. Men who 'mow something of farming and have had some er.peri--ne are especially desired, he declared. Men can con-n-ct with these men by getting in touch with county vrgicultural agents, federal and state employment offices in towns and cities, and the farmers can fill their needs through the same agencies. " Opening of spring work reveals that there are not

enough men on Indiana farms to operate them to the

zreatest advantage," according to Brumfield, who added: ! ,er- ?1! thinSa considered, that a Wages and inducement? offered are patisfactnrv Toito perfectly wjthout glasses.

all employed, but it is tvident, that in the pre.rr labor; situation, the farms are coming out the losets."

ARMY STANDARDS. There is much basis for the complaint that our

present army requirements are too drastic. This is on"i of the main reasons why there is so much difficulty in ordinary times in keeping our army recruited up to i:s i desired strength. At present, when there is need of so

many more volunteers for the regular army and the navy, it is especially unfortunate that thousands of eager young men, who are excellent fighting stock, should be

His height ar.d reach gave him an advantage in the hand-to-hand com bats that constituted the bulk of the fiehting. Hut we j have passed the stage of spears, swords and battle! axes. Armies fight now at long distances. Rifles and j h'eh-power shells have eliminated the giant's advantage.' Indeed, in one Important respect size has become a 1 handicap, for It nmkes the soldier a better target for ! enemy. Thus in the Kusso-Japarese war it was always ensifir for the Japs to hit the Russians than for the! Rusians to hit the Japs. And even when it came to c'ose grips, the Jap showed himself the equal of his hie adver- I sftry. Medium or small stature is not an indication of! weakness.

Mr. Foreman, who is a postman in Allentown, Pa., says "The shoes with Ncolin Soles gave me continuous service for 9j4 months, during which time I averaged 18 miles a day. Ordinary soles last me about one month." If you are hard on shoes, follow Mr. Foreman's example and buy them with N colin Soles. These soles are created by Science to be especially tough and durable. Therefore, Neolin-soled shoe wear a long time, and so cut your shoe bills down. Good shoe stores carry them in many styles for men, women, and children.
