Missouri mules are quoted at $120 In the market. This is more than was paid for some Missouri legisla tors. Wheat prices have declined on ac co-int of large shipments from Eussia. The whole grain list is somewhat in fluenced by the weakness- of securi ties. At Lexington, S. C. the trial of James H. Tillman, former lieutenant governor of the state, for the murder of N. G. Goniales, an editor, is begun, the jury being made up of farmers an! mill workers. Senator Foraker stakes his - reputa tion as a prophet on 100.000 republi can majority in Ohio and a majority of thirty on joint ballot in the legis lature. What is Tom Johnson in poli tics for, anyhow? Mr. Payne is probably right in his notion that no vigilance can prevent official speculation by men who are de termiaed to steal; Proper energy can send them to the penitentiary, bow ever, after they have stolen. It is said that many young people seeking instruction in the higher grades of music, come from Europe to America now for sich instruction, the facilities in this country being con sidered superior to the old world. First Assistant Postmaster General Wynne has issued an order putting Into effect the terms of thenew postal treaty between the United States and Cuba on October 9 next. The treaty provides for the transfer of mails from one country to the other at domestic rates. The head of the charity organiza tion at Louisvillt mentions that this is the first summer la seventeen years that he has received no application from a Louisville laborer out of work. rc-4-Ji rr Vofr tViAra ova man mhn will net work, this is a pretty good sign of prosperity and general em ployment. Toledo is a bad city if it will tolerate a mayor who says he will enforce only such laws as suit him. Of course Toledo should "put up with him" until he can be legally removed from office. Respect for law is what the mayor and a majority of the people of Toledo should learn as soon as possible. ' - The New York Eveninjr Telegram publishes at attack upon the methods of Dr. Lorenz, savins several of his operations in New York have resulted disastrously. The hospital authorities, on the other hand, say that all such cases were complicated with other than hip diseases, which accounts for the failure. It is said that King Peter, of Servia, lives in daily fear of assassination end wears a coat of mail when he goes out amoDg bis beloved subjects. There may come a time though when the king killer will catch him without any coat on. as was the case with his predecessor, the unfortunate Alexander, and then good bye Peter. South Bend Tribune. ' The saloons of Logansport have drawn the color line and refuse to veil drinks to negroes only at prohibitive prices. For instance, some of the wet goods emporiums have placarded their bars with a notice announcing that negroes will be served withwhiskey at tlO per glass and beer at $5 per glass. This is a good thing for the negroes and it would be better for the community if many white men were included in the list. Go home,' Secretary Shaw said to the Maryland bankers, "and tell your merchants and jour manufacturers and your railroad people that you are still doiag business at the old stand and expect to remain. Stand by the business Interests of the country and all will be well. The prosperity of the American people is not measured by the price of Stocks and bonds, but by the output of our farms and our factories and the profitable employment of labor."

The railroads may not- have set about it to raise the prices of coal, but they could not have devised a more effective plan of doing so than by turning up with a shortage of cars and motive power at this season. In dianapolis Journal. - Lafayette has just taken the lead in the passage by its city council of an ordinance prohibiting the sale or use of deadly and noisy explosives, such as toy pistols, giant tre crackers and similar weapons, on the Fourth of a July or any other time. The organization of "a national employers' association, whose members will be bound to the "open shop" principle and united agrainst the exactions of labor unions, was projected Tuesday night at a conference held at the Auditorium Annex, Chicago. Some people declare that the Chris tlans of Macedonia are m'ighty poor Christians, and that may be true- If unworthy Chiistians everywhere were selected for slaughter, however, the undertakers in this and all the other so-called Christian countries would have their hands full for quite a spell . In Chicago they couldn't even manage their centennial celebration without getting into a union row over the band music for the big parade. Because the committee of arrangements engaged the marine band to toot for the occasion, the union bands got mad and said they wouldn't play unless the Marine band was excluded. Very properly these fastidious tooters and sticklers were told that the parade could be held without their taking part in it. South Bend Times. The announcement that all the In dians sent to the United States peni tentiary at Ft. Leavenworth become infected with tuberculosis, and that many deaths occur in the prison, makes It incumbment on the government to take prompt action to better the existing conditions. The envi ronment in which the Indians have existed for centuries makes close con finement almost generally fatal if it is continued for any length of time. They are a people of t!ie open air. Because the Marine band of enlist ed men in the government service Is to play at the Auditorium mass meeting Thursday night, the union musicians refused to take part in the Chicago centennial parade Tuesday. They declare that their constitution does not permit them to have anything to dowi th events in which enlisted men take part. If the Chicago musicians will think it over carefully, however, there is little doubt that men of their intelligence will be able to see that the Union is just as important to their welfare as the union. So persistent have been the rumors that President Roosevelt is fathering the booms of various vice presidential candidacies that an authorative deni al of these rumors has been sent out from Washington, with a statement to the effect that the president is not looking for the candidate, but will leave that to the convention, whose duty it is to make such selection. Senator Fairbanks of Indiana, whom eastern newspapers are booming for second place on the ticket, . would be quite acceptable to President Roose velt as a running mate, as would a number of other strong and able republicans who have been mentioned at various times. In an open letter issued in response to the demands of the W. C. T. U, and the . Protestant churches of Toledo, Mayor Jones declares that the Sunday closing laws will not be en forced because a majority of the peo ple are opposed to them. This is an archy pure and simple. The anarchist who shoots down men because he beHeyes they ought tobe shot and re fuses to obey laws because they do.not suit him, is doing just what Mayor Jones declare? he will do. Laws, whether good or bad, should be en forced laws. Government cannot be maintained except by obedience to law and Mayor Jones of Toledo has declared himself an anarchist; " Speaking of the functions of a bank Secretary Shaw remarked recently in an address to bankers, its success should not be measured by Its divi dends, but by Its solvency, conserva tism, and promptness to respond to its customers' legitimate needs. Its reserves, in his opinion, should be avail able for use in times of emergency and are not intended to be buried and never touched.

STATE DAIRY ASSOCIATION
Next Aunual ConAcnuon Will Be Held in Plymouth. Prizes for Butter and Cheese. The Fourteenth Annual Convention of the Indiana State Dairy Associa tion will be held at Plymouth, Ind., December 10, 11, 1903., Plymouth is in about the center of the north quarter of the state, a sec tion in which about one half of the Indiana creameries are located, and and in which several new ones have been started within a year or two. A great deal of milk is produced in the western part for the Chicago Market. Plymouth is on three lines of rail road, making it easy of access from ail directions, and local trains run at con venient hours. A good program is in process of pre paration which will Include prominent speakers, from this and other states. Prizes will be onered for creamery and for dairy butter as well as for cheese. - The merit of the essays received last year prompts the repetition of the following offer. To the person residing in Indiana, presenting the best essay, as a result of his or her own work, od the cost of producing milk, butter fat or butter, a prize of $10.00 will be awarded; and to the writer of the second best $5.00. Essays should be written on one side of the paper only. The writer's narae should accom pany the essay on a separate piece of paper. , Essays should te ?n the hands of the secretary before the opening of the first session of the convention. t Sutreestion: As a cow must be maintained a year, whether she is pro ducing or not, it is suggested that where It is possible to know of the year's production either by home records or the creamery where the milk may be delivered, and to make an ac curate estimate (by weight if possible) of feed and pasture consumed, it is the most desirable basis for figures. The shorter the period the more accurate the figure may be because of the practicability of getting actual weights for a short time for thewhole evidence the essay bears that the writer knows accurately whereof he writes, rather than guessing at what was or might be done by his herd will have much weight in making the award. Applications for entry blanks may be addressed to the secretary, II. K. Van Norman, Lafayette, Ind. Nearly Sixty Years. The Chicago city directory of 1844 put the population of that city at 8,000. J. W. Xorris, its compiler, in his Introduction declares: "A glance at her geographical posi tion will convince the most skeptical that Chicago is but the nucleus about which is destined to grow up at no remote period one of the most important commercial towns in the west." And after enumerating some of the advantages ofhe position he adds: The commercial interests, then of the east, and especially of the great valley of the west, wil be Intimately connected with Chicago as a place of transhipment and deposit, and the value and amount of trade in produce, in lumber, salt, and in every description of merchandise which will center here is beyond our present powers of computation and can only be meas ured by the future wants and capabilities of the country. And thus this optomist in his con tinuation of prognostications made himself the laughing stock of many oeople. Behold the condition of things now! Chicago the third city of the world and one of the youngest! Violated Quarantine Law. Dr. Gutcher, proprietor of the Larwill Sanitarium, has been arrested by Dr. W. F. King, secretary of the Whitley county board of . health, for violating quarantine regulations and his trial will beheld as soon as he is out of quarantine. The sanitarium has been in quarantine for some time on account of a number of persons being in that institution who had been exposed to smallpox. Dr. Gutcher had endeavored several times to have the quarantine lifted, but without effect, and it is said that he. took several of his patients to Pierceton, where they left on the train for their homes. Besides this it is alleged that he mailed letters at the Columbia City and Pierceton . postofflces, contrary to quarantine regulations. Dr. Gutcher asserted that he was not familiar with the quarantine regulations, but his claims were not fully believed by the officers. No further trouble is expected at the sanatariuja hereafter. Warsaw Times. Former Vice-President. Adlal E. Stevenson delivered an address at the dedication of a new courthouse in Bloomington, 111., in which he made a strong appeal for the enforcement of law and suppression of the mob spirit. In rf erring to some of th? great men who had practiced law in McLean county he closed by saying: "Another name, greater than any yet spoken, is upon our lips that of Abraham Lincoln. No vrcrdi can be uttered or withheld that could add to or His "cams i3 ths compear tcrlt'e cf
Fencing in Hudson Bay.
The Canadian government has asked parlaiment to " appropriate the sum of $150,000 to pay the expense of a thor ough survey of Iludson bay. After the survey is completed Cadada will declare Its soyereignty over the boby of water and, of course, will establish rules for its navigation. In the press announcement of this action Iludson bay is described as "the third largest sea in the world." This is inaccurate, as the Mediterranean, Behring sea, the China sea, the Sea or Okhotsk, the Arabian sea and tbejGrulf of Mexico, with perhaps other loosely , named bodies of water, have superficial areas greater than that of Hudson bay. Instead of the third sea it is the eighth or ninth in magnitude. On the other hand, it is the largest Inland body of water In the world the . shores of which are under the jurisdiction of a single power. All the other, large seas are surrounded by different powers and their waters are as open to international navigation as the outer oceans. The announcement is made that the action of Canada in sequestering Iludson bay from free navigation will be a matter of absorbing interest to the United States. It is difficult to see why the United State should have a superior interest in Iludson bay any more than in any other substantially land-locked body of water snrrounded by the territory of another power. It Is of no particular importance to Canada, that the United States control Lake Michigan and it is of no particular importance to the United States what conditions of control Canada may establish over Hudson bay. Chicago Chronicle. A Great Western Centenary. On Monday Chicago began its six days' celebjation of the hundredth an niversary of the life of that community. Of course, Chicago is not a century old, or anything like it. It was in July, 1803, however, that a detach ment of soldiers under command of Maj. Whistler started to erect Fort Dearborn, named in honor of the sec retary of war, on the Chicago river. But there was no such place as Chica go in 1803 or for many years after ward. When the town of Cbicaro. bounded by State, Madison, Desplaiues and Kinzie streets, was laid out and platted, in 1830, there were only thirty or forty persons on the site, ex clusive of the soldiers in the vicinity.. Chicago had only 4400 inhabitants in 1840, 30,000 in 1850 and 109,000 in 1860. This hundred-year cycle which Chicago claims, and which is to be celebrated by many sorts of festivities in the next few days, is for spectacular purposes only. The year 1930 will be Chicago's real, centenary, and doubtless will be appropriately cele brated when it comes. In many respects Chicago is the most marvelous city ever built. Al though, as a community, it is but seventy-three years of age. and has been hit by panics and conflagrations, one or the latter being the most destructive in its line which the world has seen, it has today more than 2,000,000 people. It is the second city on the American continent In inhabi tants and wealth, and the fourth in the world, being led, in this order, by Londod, New York and Paris. Its growth is at a rate which will prob ably bring it up to Paris by 1310 or 1912. Politics in New YorK City. Mavor Seth Low, of Greater New York, has been nominated by the re publicans and indorsed by the cirizens' league for a second term. De has made a good executive for the American metropolis, but has much opposition, especially in the Tammany camp and among the opponents of law and order. New York as well as other American cities of the greater class cannot stand a good administra tion very long at" a time. There are probabilities that George B. McClellan, son of the famous civil war general, will be Low's opponent on tue demotratlc tickets South Bend Tribune. Oil on Troubled Waters. : A motorman passed "by a Grand army veteran who had signaled at the corner, then, thinking better of it, stopped about the middle of the block. The warrior hobbled along like a man with locomotor ataxia, and when be reaped the platform was panting, red, and fierce. Things in the neighbor hood began to hum Hke another Autietam, but before an explosion oc curred the conductor, jerking the bell, remarked cheerfully: ."The motorman thought you looked so young and spry mat he didn't suppose you wanted him to stop, sir" That expression, with its flattejy, was as oil on troubled waters.

t Effect of Public Opinion. The eonvictlon of Jett in a part of Kentucky where kilting in a feudist fight has not been called murder, is as significant of the turning of the tide as the vindication of the law in the cases of lynchers in several states, which have been points of light to be seen by the whole country. Kentucky people had come to regard the numerous murders in Breathitt county, thirty-seven In the last two years, with indifference or hopelessness, until the murder of prominent men aroused and concentrated the attention of the nation upon them and their disgrace. It was public opinion that aroused and stimulated the Kentuckians and gave solid backing to the element which has restored the dignity of law. It has been public opinion which has stirred up and enlightened the other communities where lynchers have been convicted, or sheriffs have put the law before their lives. " - This public opinion has the acquaintance of every citizen in the land with the minutest details of each tragedy. The press has shown this and repeated each incident to the communities that suffered crime It has carried back to these communities public opinion, and now.it carries to all the satisfaction and hopefulness that there has been a positive advance all along the line in the dignity and power of the law. Indianapolis Star. Got Rid of a Bore.
Senator Patrick n. McCarren has, it seems, a special dislike for a certain type of inquisitive woman reformer. A woman of this cast worried him considerably at one time about his vote upon a bill concerning her sex. She haunted hiß favorite places, and one day advanced to his desk and began examining objects upon it. "What's this?" she inquired, picking up a weighty brown thing which slipped out of her hand and dropped like a heavy stone to the floor. 'That? ' ' replied the senator. "Oh, that's a tea biscuit baked by some women reform ers who are eager to get a bill through on some kind of scientific cooking It's the finest paper weight I ever had." The woman departed silently and troubled bim no more. Philadelphia Ledger. Unique Funeral at Kokomo. One of the strangest funerals on record was that of Dr. T. V. GIfford at Kokomo Saturday. By his direc tion no services were held, nobody ac companied the remains to the grave and no one witnessed the Interment save the undertaker and the grave digger. The hour of the burial was kept secret. -Not even a member of the family was permitted to view the remains, Silently and alone the hearse wended its way from the Gifford home to the cemetery. "Why should any person want to see my dead body?" said the doctor ia giving directions concerning the funeral. "They cannot see me. It is not I they see, It is only the house I occupied in my lifetime. I am not there. It is folly to spend money on dead bodies. It is the living that need it." WANTED Young Men 'and Women In all cities there is a scarcity of good stenographers. There are many idle who cannot spell or punctuate and who are otherwise careless, but the kind of stenographers business men want are very few. It Is surprising that more young people do not prepare for this work for the salaries are large, hours are short, and rapid promotion is sure where merit is shown. It is true that thousands of young people learn shorthand and typewriting, but promotions of young men and promotions and marriages of young women together with the rapidly increasing demand soon exhaust the supply. . The Huntington Business University at Huntington Ind., which is regarded by employers of help as the most thorough in its training and which also fills more positions of this kind than any other business school in the state has been unable to filll more than half the calls it has for stenographers. This school enrolls a very intelligent and industrious class of pupils and employs high grade teachers, and the work done there is superior in every way. . Expenses, however, are very low. Board, room, tuition and books for a stenography course cost less than 90. Many students reduce this greatly by working there to earn part of their expenses. Those who are interested would get much valuable information on the subject by' writing O. E. Hawkins, President of the Business University at Huntington.
