JUDGFS' SALARIES. The bill which will be inroduced at the coming PS3ion of the legislature to provide adequate salaries fcr circuit and superior court judges In Hammond Is one that is entitled to the support of every legislator in the state. The iueaK"e wages paid the men who have charge of the administration of justice In Indiana are a crying shame to the state and it is high time that something was being done about It. When a judge Is paid $3,500 a year and a prot-ecutins attorney $25,000 b yenr there is something vitally iong about the way the state pays its servants. When the cost of llvlug has mounted and wagos and salaries all around have increased during the past few sears, the salaries of Judges have remained the same. If these men were forced to live on thoir salaries and keep up their station In lifa on what they receive .in return for the service i hey' give, they would nearly starve to death. The legislature should not hesitate a minute in seeing that the judges are given at leapt what, they ask for. as it is none too much. They should at least receive as much as judges In ttearlfy states arc paid. Indiana cannot afford to be mean and picayunlsh in taking care of its hardworking and respected jurists.

A BOtlUET FOR PEP. The Chicago newspapers are finally beginning to admit that some good can come out. of Hammond and It is p delightful right-about-face from their custom of usinp: the hammer or giving ua the merry ha-ha. The admirable persistence and resourcefulness of the Gostlin Meyn and Hastings Co. in landing the splendid plant 'f the Campbell Soup Co.. is editorially treated by the Chicago Tribune as follows, yesterday: A recent incident in the business career of William J. Hastings, a real estate dealer, suggests a practical remedy for our present business inanition. If it could be bottled and dispensed as an industrial and business stimulant we would label it "Pep." Mr. Hastings learned , tbat a large eastern manufacturing company had decided to cpen an extensive tlant in Indianapolis. ITe boarded the next train for the company's headquarters iu Camden, X. J., won a bearing from the firm's president, put before him the

advantaged of certain property at Hammond, Ind.. and eventually closed the deal for $300,000 to the satisfaction of the buyer, the seller, the city of Hammond, himself, and his Arm. Needless to say, the present general business depression has not depressed Mr. Ha::tings. Also, as a result of his "nergy and capability, community of Hammond will be a considerable extent relieved of depression as the incoming factory employs i"en for remodeling its plant and then for making its products. Such energy and activity have been important factors in the rise and success of Chicago. Our geographical position would net have developed a city here if there had not been ambitious, energetic, aud resourceful men to improvo the opportunities offered. The c'.'y has been built by the effort of individuals. It can continue to grew in wealth and Importance by the effort of individuals. Such efforts overcome the handicaps of temporary business depression. When enough of tbeso handicaps are overcome the depression ceases to exist. That la a task which now confronts every business man in Chicago. Mr. Hastings has set an example of overcoming handicaps by individual effort which proves It can be done. If it can be done by one man in one line of business, why cannot It be done by another man in another line of business? Individual effort is needed. It will bring not only individual reward but a betterment of conditions throughout the 'city, state nd nation. POLITENESS ON TRAINS. Samuel faca, president of the Pennsylvania Railroad company, has sent a leaflet to employes of the company who are engaged in dealing directly with the public und to others who hold passes over the various lines of the sj-stem, and the text of the leaflet is politeness. It should net be understood that the matter of politeness toward patrons of the Pennsylvania and other railroad lines is an innovation, for It Is not, but President Rea took the opportunity to remind all employes of their common sense obligation to the public. "'Our patrons on all occasions should be treated as our guests," President Rea said. "Whenever any question arises, we should sacrifice our ovrn individual comfort for theirs. Pass holders should give up their seats to paying patrons when a seat is crowded." The obligation of politeness does not rest upon the employes of the railroads alone. The passenger owes something to his self-respect, if not to the company, and Fhould comfort himself in a manner that will invoke the most generous service from the railroad employes. Some conductors and assistants are obliging and cheerful, even under considerable provocation, but cearly every traveler knows of some who need to take to heart the injunction of President Rea. There s often need of patience on both sides, especially when cars are crowded and trains are running late. Even he railroad company that has a monopoly of traveling facilities in a particular district will find it more profitable to treat its patrons politely, even wih marked consideration, for In these days of quick travel by automobiles, many a person might prefer that method to traveling on a railroad whose employes are lacking in the first rules of politeness.
