It would be hard enough to carry, BgBLLUSE the Opposi- | tion of organized wealth, all but twelve state conventions with & twember. ship chosen and instructed upon this single issue. 1f the awendment is de- | feated the non-government-supporting millions escape taxation forall time However bard the fight to carry the legislatures. of three-fourths of the states, it must be won, The very existence of government itself might in some dark and unforseen hour depend upon the right of the government to subject every dollar of the country’s wealth to taxation. : : & R R B %8 e The county loeal option law will be defended in the supreme court by Attorney General Bingham and ex-Governor J. Frank Hanly. Itissaid that Hanly. who is regarded as the father of the law, has been engaged by the Anti-saloon league to draw up a brief replying to the one filed in the MePherson ease from Nobleaville. Superintendent Shumaker of the Antisaloon league, is quoted as counting largely upon public sentiment to influence the supreme court, as he thinks the public sentiment favors the upholding of the option law. Still he admits that in Pennsylvania and three other states, the courts overthrew a similar law.—Logansport Pharos: e * R R oERS _ - ; : The new prison management at Jetfersonville seems to be overdoing the business. They have suddenly found out that a new kitehen for which money was appropriated last winter is not neaded and the $25,000, a big price for a kitchen, will be turned back into the state treasury. Another innovation is evidenzed in the announcement that hereafter the superinnent of the reformatory will not sit with the board of parole during its counsideration of the cases before it. This is indeed a strange conelusion. Who is better able to inform the members of the board than the superintendent who is supposed to know what would be best for the prisoners and what to do on the premises. We hope that the new management will not try to get too far away from the methods of Mr. Whittaker who performed much excellent service during his incumbency. ; . ‘ - B e bea _ Judge West of the Montgomery circuit court, one of the leading circuit judges of the state,and a lawyer of recognized ability, had no doubt about the Hanly local option law. He held that an act cannot be operative until it is in effect,and that the law was not a law until it was declared to be in operation by the proclamation of the governor. For that reason, licenses that were granted between the 26th of September and the 20th day of November, 1608, are good for one year from the date of issue. This is good sense and in rendering the decision Judge West had to moke no apology for his opinion. He did not take into consideration the make-up of the supreme court or its probable action, but-he followed constitutional requirements and did not try to guess at what the legielature intended to do. His decision as well as nearly all of the other leading judges of the state is in direct opposition to the position taken by Judge Wrigley in the Columbia City case several weeksago. . . ‘ : e S 8 ® 3 aa Cavin street can be made a most attractive basiness street if the proper system of lighting is used. For a few hundred dollars mote, ungainly poles and hanging street lights can be discarded and attractive arches and better distributed light can be obtained by the installation of arches at the street intersections. In many of the larger cities business streets are being equipped in this way and all pronounce the fnnovation most satisfactary. We hope that the city council and the new contractor for the lighting can agree upon some arrangement that will allow this changein the spec‘i fooatlons. . e : :

Fight Over Wawnsee Highway

Judge Bowser of the Kosciusko circuit court was at Wawasee Lake today, viewing a proposed highway to be opened from Pickwick Park and running back of Jones' hotel and cottages to the Inn. The matter has been before the commissioners of Kosciusko county several times and finally reached the circuit court. Before rendering a decision Judge Bowser decided to view the proposed road, Most of the cottage owers and others interested were present to explain the situation to him. There is at present a good road as far as Pickwick Park that has been maintaived by cottage owners there and they object to this road being thrown open to the general public.—Goshen Democrat.

Inquiries addressed to fruit dealers, shoe dealers, scllers of gloves and hosiery, tailors and dealers in white goods, have bought in almostlevery instance the answer: ‘Great and unnecessary increases in the prices of consumers.’ Accordiugi‘ to the best brains in the business world, the cost of woolen suits will jump 20 percent. higher if the Aldrich bill is signed by the president. Gloves of the cheaper varieties will go soaring in price when there is not ‘even the machinery in this country to manufacture them in competition ‘with those brought in from Europe. Shoes will go up in price 10 to 20 percent. The prices of such fruits as lemons and pineapples will go so high a 8 to greatly lessen the demand for them."
