Stranger things have happened than that Bryan should head a ticket in 1904 in opposition to the democrats. He accepted one ncmination in 1900 before the democratic national convention was held. The New York Herald gives interviews with representatives in congress from every part of the country indicating their views regarding the ship subsidy bill, which are to the effect that the measure cannot pass the house. When those who are predicting that the next house will be democratic get through with their estimates they find a republican mpjority of twelve. To reach this result they give the democrats five districts in Indiana instead of the four tnev h.ive. The terrible suffellnj: of 250 passengers on a stalled train on the Great Northern railway at a lonely spot on the North Dakota prairie seems almost incredible in April. The train was caught in a blizzard and for four days and nights was buried in snowdrifts, while passengers, frenzied with cold and hunger, fought for rations like wild beasts. Two passengers went insane and Prof. Colgrove, late of the university of Washington, attempted to commit suicide by cutting his throat. The report that one of the monuments originally erected by Russia to mark the Alaskan boundary line has been arbitrarily removed by a Canadian official surveying expedition is receiving the attention of the government authorities. By direction of the President Secretary Hay has ordered a personal investigation tobe made by a committee of United States arm? ofticers to ascertain and report the facts. Of course, the only object in removing the monument would be to change the boundary line, and the act, if done, would be an affron equally to Russia and the United States.

TEMPERAN'CE IN THE ARMY. President Roosevelt with accustomed courage and decision has taken a firm stund against intemperance in the army, and as commander-in-chief of that organization he has absolute authority to issue orders that will stop the use of liqnor that he knows to be the bane of a soldier's life. The president has had experience and plenty of evidence to show that much of the ill health and incapacity for soldiers for duty, as well as their discharge for disability is due more to the inordinate use of intoxicating drink than to any other cause, especially in time of peace, and even in time of war liquor has more to do in taking off soldiers than the bullets of the enemy. Knowing these facts it is certainly a good act of Roosevelt In taking this step towards positive reform. He wants liquor abolished from the army as far as possible. He is opposed to the army canteen to the neighborhood saloon or any tiling else that will lead the soldier in the way of temptation. A car load of army maniacs brought to this country from the Phillipines and taken to a government hospital at Washington has aroused the president's interest in this subject, for it is affirmed by the surgeons that most of the mental disorders of these men are due to the free use of a, poisonous liquor which is provided by the natives in the Philippines, but which they know enough to use sparingly. The United States, President Roosevelt thinks, should have the model soldiers of the world in every sense, and in order to do this they should be tempeiate men. One of the greatest temperance movements of tQ age has thus been inaugurated by the president of the United States.

The bill of Mr. Brownlow to increase the salaries of the clerks which some of the members of the house employ and all receive pay for, from $100 to $150 a month, is provoking unpleasant newspaper comment. Sentiment in favor of a parcels post is rapidly developing. Congressmen also recognize that in a very few years ri.ral free delivery will not only be universal, but the routes will be reduced from an average of 20 miles to not over ten, so that each family may receive at least two mails a day. The talk in favor of the postals savings bank has largely died out, because it is recognized that such a svstem would draw money out of the rural districts and small towns to Washington, to be deposited in pet banks in big cities.

The supreme court of Cuba has admitted Rathboneto bail until he is' sentenced. His bail is fixed at $100,-000.

It is said that those railroad companies which have been compelled by big shippers to make heavy rebates are really reconciled to the injunction served upon them. Dr. norne has resigned his position at the Michigan City prison and prefers charges of cruelty and brutality against the management. One of the directors, Mr. Bundy, is now out of the state and Dr. Home will not permit an investigation until he returns. Deputy Barnard and Warden Reid deny the charges. A thorough investigation will be made as soon as all the directors of the prison get together and have a meeting. As was expeeted, the bids for the Indianapolis federal building show that Indiana limestone is much cheaper than granite; that with the former material the figures are within the money already appropriated; that with the latter a sum additional will nave to be appropriated. As to the two materials there is no need for argument. Indiana limestone has established its place in this country as a superior building material. The postoffice department has under consideration the question of placing on one of the stamps of the new issue the head of some woman who is connected with the history of the country. No particular person has been decided upon, although there is no doubt, that ' Martha Washington will be the woman so hcnored. This will be the first recognition of woman upon any of the government securities issued by the department. The South Bend Tribune says Prof. Hering, the democratic nominee for congress was a red hot republican in 1894. This probably accounts for the republicanism in his speech accepting the nomination. On. the question of trusts Mr. Hering takes radical republican ground. He also declared that no party applying the principles of government that existed titty years ago to the present, can hope to succeed. He says what was best for this count ry in the days of Jefferson, Madiscn and Monroe are not worth anything now, and that parties, like individuals must keep up with the times. This is republican doctrine but it sounds very strange to old democrats who have always worshiped at the shrine of Jefferson and Jackson.

And now it is said President Roosevelt has directed the attorney general to institute proceedings against the beef trust under the Sherman antitrust law. If the president should succeed in breaking up the combination that has forced up the price of meat it would make him very popular, though probably he is more intent on enforcing the law than he is on winning popularitv.

The report of cruelty in the state prison should be most thoroughly investigated. There attaches always to charges of this kind a measure of doubt. The temptation to cruelty is great. It is something that increases almost insensibly. At the same time, the necessities of the case are such that charges may easily be exaggerated. For this reason the most scrupulous and impartial investigation should always follow in cases of this kind that the truth may be ascertained and justice done. Senator Bevendge's Selections. The superintendent of scheols at Rochester wrote to Senator Beveridge asking him to recommend five patriotic, five religious and five home and farm songs by the pupils in the public schools and the senator in reply indicated his choice of songs as follows: Religious ''Nearer My .God to Thee," "Jesus' Lover of My Soul," "Coronation," "Jesus, Like a Shepherd, Lead Us," "Just As I Am, Without One Plea." Patriotic-"America' "Red, White and Blue," "Star Spangled Banner," "Marching Through Georgia," "Rally Round The Flag," Home and Farm "Home, Sweet Home, " "Annie Laurie, ""Lilv Dell, " "The Old Oaken Bucket," "Wait for the Wagon." The Value of Dairy Products. The value of dairy products in the United States in the census year was $472,369,000, of which substantially 40 per cent was consumed on the farm, remainder sold. The total number of cows returned was 17,139,674 and the average yield of milk 424 gallons.

Indiana CrdJ Report. The crop report for March issued April 1, says in Indiana wheat is small and in some localities winter killed in spots, but generally fields are green and prospects for good crops are encouraging; rye very promising; condition of clover and timothy fair; peaches believed to be mostly killed; other fruit uninjured; plowing, oat seeding, gardening and planting potatoes in progress; ground In good condition, except too wet in extreme southern counties. To Destroy Cabbage Worms. A correspondent of the St. Louis Globe says: Hoe your cabbage at an early hour in the morning and just lift a good full hoe of dirt up on top of the cabbage. Do not be afraid of dirt soiling cabbage, as it heads from inside. This is the only thing that I ever do. The worm mixes in the dirt and dies at once. Repeat as often as needed. Whenever you see worms, apply plenty of dirt."

Not Afraid of "Itch." Dr. II. W. Marklev, health officer of Wells county, has reported to the state board of health that he is experiencing great trouble with smallpox in this county. He reports eightyone cases during March, fifty-three of them being at Liberty Center, a town of 300 inhabitants. One citizen of Liberty Center ignored the diagnosis of a case of smallpox and walked about town, saying he was not afraid of the "itch." He was arrested for violating the quarantine law and fined $17.45. He was compelled to remain in quarantine fourteen days, and a case of smallpox developed in his fam ily. Death of Major Bitters. Major Bitters, editor of the Rochester Republican, and one of the oldest newspaper men in Indiana died at his home in Rochester Satuiday, aged 66 years. He had owned and edited the Republican almost continuously for thirty years, and was a vigorous writer and an all around newspaper man. His death was caused by congestion of the liver. He had been a tireless newspaper man for almost fifty years, and had taken practically no rest. He was a prominent Spiritualist, but was tolerant of the opinions of others and had a host of friends in almost every section of Indiana.
