It would sesm to be better politioal wisdom to allow the Republicans to earry out the program xxm;q»-u? out by Benator Beveridge The coming contest will be one of the most hnportant o the politionl s - tury of ﬂ‘w siate and the Dethocrats who are so caock-sure of a democratic walk-away. might as well dirabuse their minds. Everyibing polnts 1o a well organized and atrenuous campaizu by the f%v;‘itmmvmm. Fliey have the advautage, for, counting the nigzers aud the big foreign vote, Indians ' 8 not demoeratic by a long shot. By the time that the slectuon draws uear _ the republican quarrels will have been settied or patcehed up and i leaders will preseat a solid front. It will remasin to be seen whethier'the voters will blindly follow and endorse the republiican program : : . ® e e 4 aoe ‘ The Republicans went to & wet county to flud their state chairman, & man who has not been compelled to take sides in the late liqaor fight, so flercely waged in the party. The uew man is an undertaker which seemns -to be gignificant. He nas had no political expertence that would warrant his selection, but they just had to bave somebody . not identitied with any of the factions nor mixed up in the anti-saloon tight. : ,_&%E o x c , The Indianapolis News takes a deep futerest in the demoeratic party It is aiwaye giving advice and telling us what we should do. 1t professes 0 see things in every move made by individusl Demoerats. We believe that the News has become so imbued with the idea of {ts importatce to the democratic party that it is forgetting some of its duties toward the oppo sitioa. The republiean state committee was re-organized last week under the direction and dictation of Senator Beveridge without even a protess from the News which has talked in season and out of season against per- . sonal dominatioh of p’nl'itical parties. The News did not even take time to give Mr. Beveridge any advice nor did it say anything about the influences , that backed his organization. : ' : ' . R Rw *ES ! ; : An embarrassing situation confronts not only the republican cam- - paigner and editorial writer, but the entire party as well in the coming campaign. They are asking the people to support Beveridge and at the ‘same time are forced to endorse the policies and administration of Taft That is.they are asking for support for the man who is directly opposed " to those who are now in control of affairs at Washington. If they endorse Beveridge they take a stand in direct opposition to the leaders of their party. If they defend the course of the bosses they are hurting Beveridge But when they stop to consider it, by sending Beveridge back to the senate they are neither able to hurt the bosses. help them or change the situation. The announcement of the congressional committee that they would work for the defeat of insurgeat republicans is an indication of what the big ones “would like to do to Beveridge but they dare not. That being the case what influence can the brilliant senator have when he is in disfavor with the - heads of his party. The Republicans of Indiana bid fair to defeat their ~man by overzeal, since it is easy for the voter to see that he is getting no representation when he returns tu the senate a man who is standing outside ~ his party, ealling for the thiugs that the Democrats are working for. The safe way for the people to get the change that they desire is by sending - Democrata to congress who are known to be men with the interest of better government at heart and with the good graces of their party to help them. In making the fight on the strength of Beveridge it is possible that the republican leaders will succeed only in calling attention to his impotency as long as the organization in control is allowed to continue.—Columbia City Post. o — ' '

Has anyone forgotten the arguments against low prices uttered in 1898 by many of the newspapera which are now so earnestly insisting that the téonntrylil rushing straight to ruin because everything is high?-—Marion hronicle.

: That much foolish talk was indulged in:at the time stated does not admit of doubt. There usually is such talk when questious of finance or political economy are up for consideration. But that furnishes no excuse for the extortion now being practiced by Greed, Grab & Co. During the nineties prices were undoubtedly too low—distressingly low for the producer. What made them so has not, to this day, been satisfactorily explained—especially when the fact ls taken into consideration that the crops were not abundant during the greater part of that decade. Reasonable men—real students of economic conditions—recognize the prevalence of fat aud lean years, without going into hysterics over them. And they hardly ever tear their shirts over things that can’t be helped and for which nobody in particular can be blamed.—South Bend Times. \ : .

: Linton is Puzzied . : . One of the strangest things we know of is the fact that drunkennpess is more prevalent on our streets now on Sundays than it was when we had thirty saloons. We do noet believe the officers are negligent. In fact we know that both the prosecutor and the police officials -are doing their best to stop the illegal sale of liquor but are unablé to do so But where people get their whisky to get drunk on seems to be the puzzle. So far, local option has miserably failed to reduce drunkenness in this city.—Linton Record.
