FACTS VS. GUSH. We wish to acknowledge the receipt of a copy of a speech for Albert J. Beveridge, in reality an insidious and uncalled for attack on Senator New made by a woman, Mrs. Allan T. Fleming of Indianapolis, at Terre Haute on Saturday night. We don't think much of it. We don't believe it will hurt Senator New a particle and we doubt whether it made any votes in Vigo county for Mr. Beveridge. "We need him," (Beveridge) says Mrs. Fleming, "because he understands the common people having been a working man himself. We need him because he is a devoted husband and father, with a sweet young' daughter and manly young son of his own whom he loves. Do you not feel, he is better fitted to care for the interests of our little girls? With a young son of his own who adores him, and in whom all the future hopes of the father are centered, can you not feel, he is more capable of caring for the interests of your son and mine. We need Mr. Beveridge because he believes in clean poli

tics, a square deal, and government of the people, for the people, and by the people." It is too bad that Mrs. Fleming didn't have Mr. Beveridge by hes side when she gushed so beautifully about his being a workingman. What a hit it would have made had she been able to lift up his hands and show the callouses on the palms thereon. We fear that if Mrs. Fleming expects to get the "glass of fashion" into the U. S. Senate on his record as a laboring man she won't get him very far. We believe, too, that the interests of our little girls are just as safe with Senator New as with Mr. Beveridge. Does Mrs. Fleming mean to insinuate that Senator Now does not believe in clean politics and a square deaU. Does she intimate that Mr. Beveridge has any mortgage on government of the people for the people and by the people? We cannot speak for Terre Haute. Lake county is too far away from Vigo and has its own ideals, but we believe that Lake county is eminently satisfied with the kind of politics that Senator New stands for. We believe that Lake county likes Senator New's kind of square deal. He has done a lot for Lake county and Lake county people and they are going to send him back for the second term to which he is entitled. Facts go a great deal further than gush and Senator New's campaign is being conducted on facts.

TURNING OF THE TIDE. Signs have been multiplying to show that '

business is improving at a gait that will reach normal sooner than some persons anticipate. First came a gradual but continued improvement in the steel industry, followed closely by an improvement in the stock market which has carried many securities to figures almost double those of six months ago. Now comes announcement by the interstate commerce commission that ifet railway earnings for February were more than $47,000,000 com

pared to a deficit of more than $6,000,000 in February, 1921 and announcement by Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover that exports during February were greater, even at reduced valuations, than for several months. The railroad figures are of particular interest because they show that both passenger and freight rate reductions are not so far off, and reductions of that kind will speed business recovery generally immensely. The Esch-Cum-mins law provision guaranteeing railroads a return of six per cent having expired, the interstate commerce commission can now set any rail rates it sees fit to, although it will probably continue to base them on a return of approximately six per cent on the investment. While it is unlikely that American world trade will strike its gait until European economic adjustment, whether by the Geona conference or those to follow, only inconceivable blundering at Genoa or after can check the improvement already started. The turning of the tide is a sample of what might be, and ought to be, if the politicians abroad have sense enough to be statesmen.

SCORES OF FAMILIES MADE HOMELESS WHEN RTVF3R FLOOT)S HE A RDSTOWN. ILL.

MAKING AMERICANS PAY. x The tide of travel from America to Europe this summer, it is generally predicted, will be the heaviest for many years. Europeans know this and are preparing accordingly. The tourist, and especially the American variety, is fair game for hotelmen and shopkeepers the world over. He expects to pay well for having the temerity to venture far from home. But the business of exploiting the stranr within the gates ought to stop there. x Reports are heard of proposed taxes on tourists, of countries that plan to make the visitors pay directly for the privilege at the rate of so much a day instead of trying to induce them to remain as long as possible. There is talk of taxes, too ,on businesses that cater especially to travelers .and of course these will be passed along to the ultimate consumer. That the depreciation of the currency of continental countries will enable visitors to live luxuriously at low expense, is the most common excuse for these tourist taxes. But if reports are true, in many instances prices have been raised accordingly. No matter what happens the big crowds are going to Europe this year. But if they return with tales of extortion there willl be fewer victims next year.
