Foraker's Reply to Patterson. An important contribution to the discussion of the Philippine bill was made in the senate this week by Mr. Foraker, of Ohio. He maintained that the United States could not leave the island until order had been restored and until a stable government had been established. He declared that this government would not come away from the islands until the present or the next administration even though the latter be democratic because the American people would never consent to poltroony. Mr. Foraker read some editorials from the Denver News, of which Mr. Patterson (Colo.) is the proprietor. The editorials maintained that the United States must retain control of the Philippines and put down the Insurrection. TVith keen sarcasm the Ohio senator declared that the editorials did not read as Mr. Patterson's speeches read now. Mr. Foraker held that the policy adopted in the Philippines was one of the kindliest and gentlest possible and in strict accord with the instructions of President McKinley. He declared that the minority had attacked the arm v from "the commanding general to the humblest private all because the army had resented the outrage without parellel in cruelty committed by the Filipinos. The American army had shown a humanm ity unsurpassed in history. The American people always had stood by their army and they always, would. Hunger for Mystery. People who scan the advertising pages of current newspapers and other periodicals will be struck w ith the attempt, everywhere evident, to pander to the love for the mvsterious and the obscure. People who profess the utmost scorn and unbelief in such things eagerly patronize the astrologer, the palmist, the fortune teller. Quacks and fakirs of all sorts with no other equipment than abundant assurance and a working knowledge of human nature com this love for the mvsterious and desire for miracles and wonder working into mines of wealth for themselves. Their dupes are always easily worked. It is a sign of a weak mind and an uncultivated will, as well as of a narrow intellect, this overweening, undiscriminative appetite for the marvelous of this kind. It is a mere tinsel imitation of the real hunger that leads men to seek knowledge. There is an infallible test to distinguish between the true and the false appetites for the mysterious and the unrevealed, and that is found in the motives of the seeker and of the seer who would reveal. If what is sought and what is given are for mateiial profit and material gain, then is the search and its ending in vain.

The Darkest Day of the War. Ex-Secretary John D. Long says that the darkest day in the navy department during ths Spanish war was when a telegram came that Commodore Schley when within 20 miles of Santiago, where it was known that Cervera 's fleet was in hiding, turned about and started for Key West. Every moment Long says it was expected to learn that Schley had attacked the Spaniards, but when the news came that he had turned about there was gloom In "Washington. Fortunately he was overtaken and ordered back to assist Sampson in looking after Cervera, and one of the greatest victories in naval.annals followed. Bodies Roasted and Burned. A landing has at last been made at St. Pierre and the work of exploring the ruins of the annihilated city has begun. While It will be many days before the full magnitude of the hayoc wrought can be ascertained, enough is already reveaJed to -indicate that the very worst anticipations are more than realized. All the dead thus far seen were stark naked, their clothing apparenty having been burned from their bod es like so much tinder, while they hemselves were roasted to death. In he vast majority of instances fire seems to have been the sole cause of death. Independent Voters Still Live. The indiscriminate scratching in this and other cities on Tuesday proved that the independent voter is abroad in the land. In some places democrats made gains and in others re publicans made gains. The party in power always suffers from the pen of the "scratcher. Men may be demo crats or republicans on state and na tional issues, but when it comes to local affairs their party ties are not as binding as in former years; Those facts should emphasize the necessity of those in office so administering, af fairs as to merit .the indorsement of the people.

AN EXPANSION ERA Marvelous Development of Indfana's Industrial Interests as Shown ' v ; By Census Figures. ,

STRIKING STORY OF GROWTH How the Hoosier State Has Shared In the Benefits of the American Economic Policy Indiana's Manufactured Products Reach Every Quarter of the Globe. A quarter of a century ago Indiana was noted for its agricultural products. The state has not lost its preeminence in this particular. There has been no decadence of farm interests the past four or five years have b?en a period of steadily rising land values, and from the standpoint ol prosperity the Indiana farmer today occupies an enviable position. Indiana is not in the abandoned farm belt. A quarter of a century ago the argument that the people of Indiana had no special interest in legislation for the fostering ' of manufacturing . interests seemed plausible. The statement that protection was a device for the upbuilding of Eastern manufacturing centers at the expense of agricultural sections carried some weight. But changed conditions conditions changed as the result of protective legislation, render such a position untenable. Indiana has become a great manufacturing state. In the words of the late Governc" Mount: "The factory and the fanr. are in Indiana side by side. From the field one can hear the whir of the machinery in the shop and mill." The local advantages of such a condition, in the creation of a near-at-hand market for all that the farmer produces are apparent. The output of the Indiana farm need not be shipped a thousand miles to find a consumer. It is a short haul from the farmyard to the millyard. Near the borders of the state are a half-dozen great citle3, which have shared liberally in the marvelous industrial growth beginning with the adoption of the policy of protection by this government more than a third of a, century ago, and finding its culmination at this hour in the greatest "good times" era this or any other country has ever known. The Growth of a Decade. The ten years ending with 1900 will not go down to history as an era of uninterrupted industrial progress. Out of this must be taken a full four-year period in which the Industries of Indiana and of every other state came either to a full stop or moved backward. From an industrial standpoint ihe decade closing with the century was but six years long. Yet the sum total of progress is marvelous. The figures are eloquent beyond the power of human speech and they are eloquent in no cause of reaction or retr gression. From 1S90 to 1900 the population of Indiana Increased 14.8 per cent. The number of manufacturing establishments within the borders of the state grew from 12,354 to 18,013, or 45.8 per cent; the average number of wage-earners from 110,590 to 155,956. or 41 per cent: the amount of wages paid from $42,577.258 to $65,847,317; the cost of materialc used from $130,119.106 to $214,961,610. or 65.2 per cent; the value of products from $226.825,082 to $378.120.140. or 66.7 per cent; the value of land and buildings invested In manufactures, from $31.579.846 to $58.046,838, or 83.5 per cent. The great prosperity of the state in 1900. as compared with the four-year term which should bo subtracted from the decade as a period of growth, is. shown by the fact that in 1900 the greatest number of wageearners employed at any time during the year was 216.925. or. 50,000 more thf.n the average number for the full decade. During the 50 years ending with 1900, the population of Indiana increased from 988.416 to 2,516,462, or 154.6 per cent, while the average number of wage-earner increased from 14,4 ?0 to 155,956, or 980 per cent. More significant stilT, the average annual wage paid to air Indiana operative increased from $265 in the decade ending with 1860 to nearly $500 m the decade ending with 1900. Subtracting the four-yar period of decreased wagesr. the average- for the decade would" be Increased considerably. It is safe to say that the average annual wage at this time Is In the neighborborhood of $600. The Indiana: worklngnran is more than twice as good a customer as he was 40 years ago. It is Tvt surprising that the Indiana farmer is realizing better prices for everything he has to sell than during any former period1 in the history of the state. . ' Ar Achievement: ef Protection. j' It Is of course true that the mora recent industrial development of;. Indiana is in no small part due to the discovery and utilization of natural resources. .But these resources, if discovered while this country was Industrially dependent, would have been omparatively useless. The manufacture of glass and metal are distinctively creations of the protective 4 policy. Until the favoring- tariff laws were enacted, not a square foot of plate glass, not a pound of tin-plate, not a yard of hosiery or ; knit goods was made In Indiana. It has not .been a decade ago since a leader of the free trade propaganda declared, almost within the shadow of the rising walls of the tin-plate mills at Elwood,jhat the economical manufacture of r tinplate in the United! States was a delusion. Yet these mills, dedicated by William McKinley himself, and placed in operation as tha result of the law to which he gave his name, are now the largest of their kind in the world. The glass industry, in which nearly $13,000,000 Is invested In 110 Indiana establishments, employing 13,000 men to whom $7,250,000 in wages is paid annually, bad its beginning in this country with Mr. DePauw at New Albany, and is a creation of the policy of Morrill Blaine, DIngley and McKinley. The same may be said of the iron and steel Industry, in which there! it invested in Indiana nearly 115.000.

Indiana's Leading Industries. During the decade covered by the last census almost every Indiana industry showed a marked advance over the conditions of 1890. In the meatpacking industry the number of establishments Increased in number from 21 to 36, in wage-earners employed from 2,107 to 3,597, in value of products from $27,913.810 to $43,862,273, or 57.1 per cent. In the manufacture of foundry and machine shop products 337 establishments, with 10,339 wage-earners and products valued at $17,228,096, were in existence in 1900, as against 200 establishments, employing 5,904 wageearners, and a production valued at $9.542,499 in 1890. The increase in value of products amounted to S0.5 per cent. In the iron and steel industry there was an increase during the decade from 13 establishments, 2.648 wageearners and products valued at $4.742,760 to 27 establishments, employing 7,579 wage-earners and products valued at $19.33S.4S1. The increase in value of products was 307.7 per cent. Comp.iratlve figures with reference to the tin-plate industry are not at hand, because in 1S90 It did not exist In this state. In the' manufacture of lumber and timber products the increase during the decade was from 1,633 establishments. 15.021 wage-earners and products valued at $20.27S,023, to 1.849 establishments, employing 9,503 wageearners and turning out products valued at $20,613,724. The glass industry shows a growth In Indiana for the period from 21 establishments, 3,010 wage-earners, and products valued at $2,995,409. to 110 establishments, employing 13.015 wage-earners, with products valued at $14,757,883. Indiana glass is shipped to foreign parts scattered from Norway to New Zealand. In 1890 there were 394 Establishments engaged in the manufacture of carriages and wagons In Indiana, with 4,508 wage-earners, and products valued at $8.248,873; in 1900 the number of establishments had decreased to 275, but the number of ware-earners had Increased to 5,490, and the value of products to $12,742,243. In car construction and general shop work the number of Indiana establishments increased during the decade from 48 to 54, the number of wageearners from 6,613 to S.0S1 and the value of products from $7,829,3S2 to $10,242.422. The expansion of other Indiana industries has beep almost uniformly in the proportion Indicated by these figures." Growth;of Five Cities: ll: The growth o7 manufacturing and mechanical Industries in the five Indiana cites of greatest population is illustrative of the recent commercial expansion of the Hoosier state. In Evansville between 1890 and 19Ö0 there was an increase in the number of establishments from 482 .to 705, in number of wage-earners from 6,815 to 7,279; in Fort Wayne the number or manufacturing establishments increased during the decade from 235 to 397 the number of wage-earners from 5:644 to 7,255; Indianapoll- in 1890 had 1,189 establishments, in 1900. 1,910. In 1890, 16,025 wage-earners, in 1900. 25,511; South Bend had in 1890 208 manufacturing establishments, In 1900 302, in 1890, 5,750 wage-earners. In 1900, 8,257; there were 367 establishments. infTerre Haut fn, 1890, in 1900 there were '429, employrng 6,427 wageearners, as against 4.720 in 1890. In more than -.one Oft these cities, .the Increase in. number, of establishments and wageHsarners has been much more rapid In the' two years which have succeeded ; the taking of the last census, than during-any portion of the former decade.;," Of the six fading cities of the state New Albany wa3 tne only one to suffer diminution of Industrial interests this on account of the removal' of some of her factories to the gas belt '-. .' ; -d Figures That Are Eloquent. ?. Lj These, figures, apeak so elpquently, of the growth of a' great state that comment is superfluous. Indiana stands in the front rank of American commonwealths. From an industrial viewpoint her geographical position Is strategic, from an agricultural stand point she is among the most favored of nature.' Within her borders beats the ' hearts of American , civilization, and the center of popujatlon la assured to Indiana for many years . to come. Under such conditions every step in the movement for the world-wide expansion of American commerce, the conquest of foreign markets which has been so signal a feature of our recent industrial development, and the maintenance of our flag at the gateway to the r&st commerce of the Orient, is of vital Interest to every citizen of iha Xlooeler etat.

POTTER PALMER'S WILL

Widow Given Control of an Estate Estimated to Be Worth $8,000,000. Chicago. May 14. By the terms of the will of. the late Potter Palmer, his widow, Mrs. Bertha Honore Palmer, succeeds him as head of an estate conservatively estimated at 88,000,000. The property goes jointly to Mrs. Palmer and their sons, Honore and Potter, jr., but Mrs. Palmer is given almost unlimited control and the unlimited disposition of it all. It is believed the testator made this arrangement on account of the great confidence he had in Mrs. Palmer's ability and judgment, and not through any lack of faith in their sons. He makes it clear that he wishes her to carry out the plans they had made together. SCHWA3 PLANS A CHARITY Steel Magnate Buys Property Summer Resort. for a New York, May 14 Charles M.

It is expected that no the institution will be ready for use. Veterans of Indiana M:et.

ILJl J Child Burned to Death. Marion, Ind., May 12 Bernice Mills, the six-year-old daughter of John Mills, living in west Marion, was fatally burned Saturday afternoon and died early Sunday morning. The child was playing with some children near her home when they found a kerosene torch near the house and proceeded to light it. Bernice was holding it and her dress caught on fire. She started to run home, the wind fanning the flames, and before she reached the house her body was burned almost to a crisp. Her mother saw her and wrapped the burning child in the folds of her own dress, smothering the flames.
