Plymouth, Ind., April 24. 1902. Senator Hann'a is la love with his new role of conciliator of labor and capital. May success and long life attend him!

Attorney-General Knox is after the trusts with a sharp slick. Those critics that opposed his nomination on the ground that he was in close touch with corporations have another think com in sr. According to the evidence produced at the investigation at the Michigan City penitent!ary, there are quite a number of insane men there who ought to be in a different institution. Some of the insane convicts are the ones against whom alleged cruelty has been practiced. The United States senate decided to reject the Chinese exclusion bill originally framed by the senators and representatives from the Pacific coast, and its place was substituted a measure offered bv Mr. Piatt of Connecticut, extending the provisions of the present exclusion to all insular territory under the jurisdiction of the United States. Secretary Root's instructions to General Chaffd show that the administration intends to meet fearlessly the charges of cruelty in the prosecution or t hewar in the Philippines. From whatever source thev mav come the charges are to be thoroughly investigated, and if any arc substantiated those who are responsible for the cruel orders or practices will be punished. Neither political party has an absolute assurance cf having a majority in Plymouth. The independent voters easily hold the balance of power, consequently it seems that the excellent ticket nominated by the republicans ought to win easily, because it should bring to its support a large majority of those who vote for what they believe to be the best interests of the city,regardess of party.

Senator Ceveridge will preside at the republican state convention at Indianapolis and will deliver the keynote speech "Wednesday afternoon Cotton is once more king, as export trade figures show. Perhaps that is the reason Jim K. Jones was turned down. It is hard to preach calamity where there is none in sight.

How is it that the thirteen Democratic congressmen in Missouri do not unite to break up the British mule camp at Lathrop? They should not falter in defending state rights on the sacred soil of Missouri. Our excellent prohibition friends tell us that they expect to cast 20,000 votes at the election in this state next November. But what of it? "While that will be more votes than thev ever cast before the result will not be affected in the least. The members of the house who have been chiefly interested in advancing the Chinese exclusion bill, after informal conferences decided to accept the senate substitute continuing in force the present laws and applying them to our insular possessions. Immigration into the United States in 1898 was 229,299. In 1901 it reached 487,918, showing that it has more than doubled in this short time. The character of the immigration is steadily changing and not for the better. One-third of the foreigners now coming to the United States are from Italy. Nine tenths of all our Italians come from southern Italy and the island of Sicily. Of course there have been some acts of cruelty and brutality during the war in the Philippines, as there have been in all wars, and always will be, but the evidence goes to show they have been rare exceptions to a general rule of forbearance and humanitv. If deliberate violations of civilized warfare are proven the perpetrators of them should be punished, but it should be remembered that war is war. Judge John II. Baker has made his position known with reference to further service on the United States district lench. He has stated that he is in health and sees no reason why he should retire, especially since members of the bar are requesting him to remain on the bench. However, he says, he will soon lay the matter before the president. If the president wishes him to retire soon he will do so, but otherwise it will please him to serve during President Roosevelt ?s tern-.

LABOR AND MACHINERY. Last Sundav a clersrvman said that

while labor had gained much by machinery capital had gained more. Wages, he said, were much higher, and so is the cost of living. v Just now the cost of food is abnormally high, but all che products of the factory, beginning with cotton cloth and ending with buildings and iron, aTe much cheaper than sixty years ago, when the factory system began in the United States. If those whose who generalize or attempt to discuss economic questions would read and compare thev will discover that manv more articles are needed to make a comfortable living now than sixty years ago. What were then the luxuries of the rich are now the necessaries of the wae earner. In the earlv davsof the factory system of New England and other states a day's labor was twelve or thirteen hours for not more than half the present wages. Nor is it true that capital gets a larger share of the returns of manufacturing when long intervals are considered. From 1893 to 1897 capital in manufactures received either very small or no - returns. Now manufactures are getting profits and have received them for a longer period than usual. The The extensive combinations of manufacturing interests are made to secure profits on a large scale, upon which a small concern would fail. Those who undertake to give public information of economic subjects should read more than one book. Indianapolis Journal. The gentlemen who are pressing the admission of Arizona to statehood should drop the master long enough to inquire why the Indians in the territory are short of supplies. The goernment sends out plenty of provisions. "Who in Arizona gets them? TO PRESERVE REPUBLICANISM. Congressman Cashman, of the state of "Washington, made a powerful speech in congress this week in favor of the rights of individual members of congre.s and in opposition to the rules which give the speaker the power to prevent any legislation that does not suit him and to refuse to recognize any but "pet" members on the floor of the house. In the course of his remarks he used the following language in reference to those who favouring rule and oppose free discussion: "I say to you, my friends, that the system is rotten at both ends. It is rotten at one end because it robs the individual members in this house of the power that the constitution of the The

United States and his credentials as a member on this floor entitle him to; it is rotten at the other end because it vests power in men that have no right to it, and cft-times places on them duties that they have no capacity to fulfill. "Mr. Chairman, let no man charge me now with trying to tear down the republican party. I am not trying to tear down the republican party, but I 'confess that I sometimes feel that I would like to put my hand. upon" the throat of one or two men who conceive that they are the republican party. I am a believer in the republican "party. The true friend of his party is "the man who does not sit idly "by and watch his party drift into disrepute and toward destruction, but the man who rises up and cills attention to the evils that exist.

Democrats are already denouncing their managers for making up the party's executive committee ol all northat ern men. The south was left out of the deal, no doubt, because it was supposed it was all right and would not need any working. It is, however, gradually slipping away from democracy and may need considerable attention, even in 1904, to keep it in harmony with hie party. The secretary of war has sent to she senate a communication fromGeneral "Wood again asserting that the planters and Cuban sugar dealers hold the bulk of Cuban sugar. The amount held is so great, he says, that they must unload verv soon.. He savs this Urge amount when thrown on the market will greatly reduce the price, and that delay of action toward reduction of the duty on sugar in the United States is playing directly into the hands of the sugar trust. The surrender of General Malvar seems to mark the end of organized resistance in Luzon. Governor Taft feels that the insurrection is practically suppressed. There will, no doutt be need of American troops in the islands for some time to come, but it is to be hoped that their duties hereafter will be little more than those of a superior sort of police. The principal problems now will be in the development of civil government and the encouragement of the people in the pursuits of peace. THE RIGHT TO WORK. Judge Baker in a decision made in the federal courts this week decided that he has no right to interfere with strikers so long as property is not injured or employes interferred with. Judge Baker holds that the mere fact that the state has failed to do its duty does not of itself give his court jurisdiction over the case. i4It is S 'Cent Virginia Cheroot above illustrations American Cigar Company

not," he said, "the proyinc of the federal courts to protect one man from another, except where the state is' powerless." "With his general views on the subject of the right of men to work without interference we agree.IIe says,it is a grievous thing when men, organized, deny their fellowmen the right to labor.lt is a matter of dangerous consequence to trample under foot the sacred right of a man to work for the support of his home and family. But the correction of these and other kindred abuses is, according to Judge Baker.

the business of the peace officers of I the state or city, and not of the federal courts. Judge Baker admitted that strikers had the right to talk with other men, and to persuade them in a decent way not to work, or to join their organization, but he refused to admit that they had any right to interfere with a man's desire to work where he pleases, or to intimidate or put a man in fear who wants to work. We may as well all understand sooner or later that when one man contracts with another to perform a certain service at terms satisfactory to both, no third party can be allowed to have the shadow of a right to prevent, or to try to prevent by intimidation the carrying out of that contract. Though restrained by no injunction the strikers in this case will, if they are wise, profit by Judge Baker's warning. For several vears the Indiana delepation in congress stood six republicans and seven democrats. In 1890 it changed to four republicans and nine democrats. In 1894 the republicans elected ten members of congress and the democrats only three. Since that time the delegation has stood nine republicans and four democrats. The delegation will remain that way if a few republicans do not try to be the whole thing and give the rank and file no change to express their wishes. AVhen this is done in Indiana the state will be turned over to the democrats, Boss rule has never been tolerated by the voters of either party in this state. The old time republican idea was that everv man counted for one and that every man had a right to be thus counted. That idea still prevails, though some people labor under the delusion that a few men should be counted equal to the whole party. In the meantime, the national debt has been steadily decreasing, and is now below the billion dollar mark. This is about one-fourth the national debt of Great Britian.
