. POLITICAL CONSISTENCY . Had Jesus- Christ been the democralc candidate for president running on thé Ten Commandments as his platform he would have been defeated this year. The republcan politicians would have pointed out hidden dangers in the Commandments never discovered before and something sinfster in the attitude of the candidate and the professing christians of the republican faith- would * have marched to the polls and voted for their candidate. This condition is a threat to our boasted civilization and must be met if we are to survive ‘as a christian nation. Will aHys declared the stomach of the United States is more important than the heart of the world. If he spoke truly and the fate of the league of nations seems to bear him out why bother about foreiga missions? Why bother to teach the heathen christianity when it is held so lightly here at home. - Why not teach the benighted savage to continue making his stomach his chief. concern, in line with the Hays doctrine, and let it go at that. - ;

BOTH ARE INDORSED Now that the voters of Indiana have indorsed the Goodrich administration and the new tax law there will be no change of policy in the government of the state. The greatest complaints against the tax law came from tne farmers- but now that they, with the great balance of .voting power, hava indorsed it we will probably hear no more complaints from this source. " The many advocates of the league of nations who regarded it as something holy are naturally hurt when it is buried in effigy in the presence of the republican presidential nominee. One must not forget- however, that Christ was crucified. L And now the woolen goods trust must have a protective tariff to help the American laboring man to pay more for his clothing. =

One step to wonder if the Near East Relief movement ‘may not result in a foreign entanglement for the United States. We have been taught to avoid all such alliances. - ’ Champ Clark, one of the notable figures in the lower house of Congress has been defeated along with Gen. Sherwood of Ohio. - With Tennesse, Oklahoma, Montana and Arizona in the republican column it now remains for Kentucky to get ir e : - See “23%% hours Leave” at Crystal Thursday and Friday. It is one of the best laughing hits of the yvear. In order to take care of the horde of candidates Senator Harding will have to create a few more cabinet places. Election returns were barely in before wild geese were reported in flight for the south. ‘

~ Prison Profit-Shadring. It will surprise a good many people in Indiana to learn that the Indianz state prison at Michigan City -was more than self sustaining during the fiscal year ending September 30, 1920.

This policy is henceforth to prevail in the state prison. It is expected that’when‘ prisoners are'made to understand tha? extra effort at production will result in extra compensation they will put forth their best efforts and earn a stipulated per cesnt for themselves
