Grosvienor figures a republican majority or 24 votes in the electoral college next year, leaving New York out Of tbe account. The general's calculations have jet to be refuted in any InataDce by actual results. Senator Eugene Hale, of Maine, who is In position to know what be Is talktnsr about, believes the day is not far distant when the dominion of Canada will'be an integral part of the United States. There are other statesmen of this country as well as of Canada, whohold to the same opinion. South Hend Tribüne. " Lieut. Governor. Gilbert Js able to be äi his law office, . and is disposing of correspondence accumulated during his illness as rapidly as he can," says the FortWavoe JournalGazette "That Mr. Gilbert is a candidate for governor tbere is little doubt. The only thing that will prevent it is his health, which is not the best. . - Senanor Morgan's assertion that President McKinley fatored the Nicaragua route for an istbumian canal was iutended to prejudice the Panama route and President Bnosevelt's action in the premises. In a matter of this kind there is no reason why, in the light of the changed situation, the present administration should adhere to Mr. McKinley 's early views. Before bis departure for Europe AN iliiam Jenniugs Bryan told some of his friends "Down East" that while he did not, under any circumstances, expect to be a presidential candidate next year, he would be willing to accept the position of' chairman of the democratic national commit toe. This would bring him directly In competition with our own Tom Taggart, whose ambition is to fill that position. Rome C. Stephenson, of Rochester, Has formally announced that he is a candidate for the republican district cn:iirminship. Mr. Stephens jn is one of the best men in the district for that place and it now seems" probable that he wJH oe chosen by acclamation when the convention meets in January. Iiis principal competitor, Walter Brown, is out of the race and no man earned by the Brown contingent can be chosen. V ' ' - Lant K.

ances ccntrol not less than $205,000,000 of the $451,000,000 of the banking capital invested In the city of New York. Dun's Review of Chicago trade says th:re is an improvement in tbe consumption of merchandise, factors being the seasonable weather and the street car stike. Former Commander Richmond P. Hobson has prepared a bill for Introduction in congress making a total appropriation for new ships for the navy of 2,750,000 to be expended during a series of years. In the national house of representatives there are 236 lawyers, 63 business men and 17 farmdrs; in the senate there are 61 lawyers, 18 business men and 3 farmers. There, are ' only 21 foreign born legislators In both houses. The Washington correspondent of the Atlanta Constitution states -that be has interviewed Southern senators and is fully satisfied that when the time arrives to vote on the new canal treaty wiih Panama a majority of the southern senators' will support the measure. JohnG. Carlisle, a former member of congress from' Kentucky and several terms speaker of the house, has been employed by the leaders of the opposition to the seating of Reed Smoot.' a senator from Utah. It is said that Mr. Carlisle is very active in this werk. A dispatch from Mexico City says that President Diaz will retire about January 1, to be succeeded by Jose Llmantour, present minister of finance. The retirement of President Diaz has been foreshadowed for some time and may be accelerated by advancing age. He has served as president continuously for over twenty-five years and is nearly seventy-four years old. . Tbe annual report of government Otero, of New Mexico, makes a plea for the admission of the territory to statehood. During the past year the building of railroads, he says, was continued with unabated vigorand capital made extensive investments. The finances of the territory .are in excellent condition and so are those of tbe counties and cities, with a few exceptions, caused 'by loose' methods many years ago and the results of which methods the counties affected are makiug every effort to overcome. The ter ritory, as well as most of the counties is reducing Us indebtedness, the governor says. . An English newspaper writer has collected a list of the epithets of tenest applied to Joseph Chamberlain by papers which oppose his policy. Among other things be has been . called the artful dodger, imperialist knave, political bamstringer, miserable trickster, great panjandrum, mugwump, smug face, imperial bagman, imperial trickster, hungry nosec Brummagem bagman. Impudent trickster, lie-factory, crafty muddler, lying camT palgner, little loafer, vulgar ranter, red herring trailer, colossal humbuf , redhanded . despot, bankrupt statesman, slippery fellow, republic smash,' er, crafty animal, v red herring ,Joe This beats Ameriea. No American newspaper can4 produce such a string' of epithets. y ' . , Operations "of "the $200,000,000 stock! conversion syndicate of the United States Steel dörpörätlon " have been abandoned. . J.

One bf tbe subjects to be discussed in tbe message which President Roose.Veit will submit to congress-at the regular session that will be of interest in Indiana relates to the proposed camps of military instruction.. Secretary Root, of the war department, believes that tbe ' state and regular troops should meet in joint maneuvers every.; year,, and; .He advocates the establishment of four orfc five permanent camps, to be bo located as to permit each of the state guard1 organizations to take advantage of them," The maneuvers held at West Point, Ky,, in which the, Indiana troops , participated, were designed to .demonstrate the practicability and value , of -the camps the tract at: West 'Point will undoubtedly be selected as one of them, and if the Indiana authorities acquiesce the trccp3 of the state will be given opportunity every yeir to go there and enrje in military maneayC73 euch n uero held duriej the summer.

In South Carolina during the year 1902 there were 223 murder trials, 3 of which resulted in sentences of death. This Is no excuse for lynch law, but it is powerful in suggesting the cause of its existence.

The frequency of crimes committed by paroled prisoners In all parts of ibis state is piling up argument against the parole system. Some sort of safeguard should be provided the public against the turning loose id. these criminals upon them. ; Since the middle of -October there have been five terrible railroad wrecks in which ninety-nine persons were killed outright and 136 seriously injured. All these disasters were the result of collisions which', with greater care, might have been -avoided. This is a shocking record. Some children named Dabney nave been excluded from a white school In Virginia because" they are one-sixty-fourth Indian blood . And .this in the state which is proud of the memorv of John Randolph Randolph, a lineal descendant at Pocahontas! He was proud of his blood but race prejudice was not so strong then. -.. Tom Horn was hanged in Wyoming and there was no attempted rescue and none of the "blustering threats of his friends were carried out. He paid the just penalty for an atrocious crime that of shooting from ambush an unarmed boy. .. There was not . much doubt. that be was hired by influential cattlemen to put young Nickell, a sheep man, out of the way. Justice has not yet done all her vork. Perry Heath is declared seriously Involved in the postal scandals in the report of Fourth Assistant Postmaster General Bristow, just made public. The former first assistant's connection with several deals is reviewed and two cases are said to have been laid before the authorities, but were dropped. The department and the public are shown to have been swindled out of large sums through the aid of trustecLmen, who secured only a p proportion of the profits. Th government was used as a tool to aid in frauds du the people. President Roosevelt says all cases will be prosecuted with thoroughness. "It is a common remark that "few office-holders die, and none- resign." If this were true, at: least one exception Ijos occurred Charles II. Gibbs, who has heen keeper "of the. Bug Light, Nantucket, has resigned his office and gose to the Sailors' Snug Harbor on Stateh Island. Gibbs was the smallest salaried officer In the employ of the United States government. His pay was only $1 a year, and he was proud of his unique position. He was not dependent upon his salary, however. He made bis living by keeping bens and breeding cats. Bug Light was an important beacon light' thirty "years ago. but when the jetties were built the channel changed and the light was discontinued. Gibbs was appointed to look after the property, which consisted of the light bouse. and a cottage, ne resigned, not because his position or salary was unsatisfactory, but on account of old age, and that he might spend his last day's in comfort in the Sailor's Snug ilarbor. ' . " Count katsuräthe Japanese premler, in an. interView wJjth. the.corresbondent of the Manchester Guabdian at Tokio, declares it is" a great mis take to think that . the Japanese are eager to fight.

The agitation in the Japanese "press ab6ut' Russia's pledge to evacuate Manchuria does not represent tbe views of -the-Japanese government. ; "Russia only said that to China as a mere voluntary promise. It was no pledge to Japau. It cannot be insisted on by Japan as an obligation.." In regard ' to Corea, Count Katsura said that it "was an avowed principle of Japanese policy t that no other power, must meddle-with- Corea and that any outside interference there would certainly be regarded as a course for warbuti nothing of the sort was likely to occur.

The "Industrie Zeitung" says that of all the, countries producing steel In 1902 tha United States led, with an output of 15,000,000 tons.'

Germany's production in 1902 was 7,780.000 tons, one-half that of the United States, while England's was only 5,000.000 tons, or one-third the production of tne United States.

The 'Elkhart paper company a rid.

'.Conn in. connection i tfMn tho failure, although: Wednesday he banded to Conn on the street a typewritten list of .1,5 I ntjrpgatories, asking for specific accusation in print of the charges which the request declared Conn had only intimated in his article.

His. two industries, the National Manufacturing company and the Consolidated Paper and Bag company) are running, and he claims tbe v will pay put dollar' for dollar. His object in selling his home is to get cash with w hich to keep his plants going until other arrangements can be made, Conn demands publicly that these plants be turned over to the bank.receiver for tbe benefit of the derx)Sitors and creditors. Grftih$ tlOn lii,; Tnirteen formet and four present city officers of , Grand Rapids, Mich,, have been indicted for accepting: bribes in connection with a scheme for supplying the city with water from Lake Michigan. It isohly a question of time when grafting and bribe taking by public officers will be recognized by the people generally as a crime, the Lafayette JourceJ Eiys. At present, In cany pieces, they are only recccized.by the statute ts such.

The New lroquoif Theatre, Chicago. Although very little has been published so far respecting the newest and altogether largesc, handsomest and most complete theatre in Chicago, if D( t in America, should the interior be com plated to correspond with the mag nificent facade on Randolph street, there is little doubt that superlatives will fail to give the reader the slightest conception of tbe elegance and grandeur of the new house. Its projectors and owners have evidently been unable to realize for themselves how entirely superior their new theatre will be when compared with other structures of like character throughout the United States. . The Iroquois Theatre, like tbe Illinois Theatre In Chicago, was built, is owned and will be conducted solely by men in the theatrical business. It is owned and will be operated by Mr. Will J. Davis and Harry J. Powers, both well known Chicago managers, one oi the Illinois and" the other of Powers' Theatre.' . 7 The inaugural attraction Is In keeping with the beauty of the theater, being Klaw & Erlanger 's colossal production of the Drury Lane spectacler "Mr. Blue Beard." Awe inspiring in its grandeur and magnitude, each one of its three acts contain more gorgeousness in scenic embellishment and superb costumes than any production ever presented in this country. v Lumber Product. From a census table showing the value of lumber and timber products by states, we learn that in telegraph poles Michigan is far and away ahead of any other state in the number furnished, tbe total number furnished, the total number number for tbe census year being 514,161 at an average of over $1.50 each. The next state in number is Wisconsin with 151,806, but a great deal poorer quality, as tbe average value is only about 90 cents each. The next state is Idaho with 34,240, at about tbe same average value as Michigan. Pennsylvania comes next with 32,647, at nearly $2 apiece, and next in number and exceeding all the other states in the average value of tbe product, is Connecticut with 31,910 poles, at an average value of almost $3 each. The ether states only furnish a few thousand ,,eacb The. cedar swamps of Michigan are . proving a source, of great profit to their lucky owners. The Sacred Concert . The sacred concert given a.t the Presbyterian church Thanksgiving evening, was well attended and enjoyed by all. Tbe concert was given by the Young Women's Social "Upion under the di-i rection of B. W. Clayton of South Bend. The program was very much enhanced by the assistance of a quartet from the First Baptist church of South Bend composed of Miss Bessie Hill, Mrs. Keller and Messrs. Barnes and Clayton Their singing was-very highly complimented by the' musical people of Plymouth who will be glad to meet them again. Elbe! Bros, of South Bend, furnished a piano for the occasion. The event was the first anniversary of the organization of the Y W. S. U., and was a very enjoyable Entertainment and the singing of the Plymouth people was good. Plymouth has been celebrated for its musical talent almost from its first settlement as ä village. " ' Through Busiest America. . .

Prof. J. W. Oarr, superintendent of the Anderson schools, delivered an entertaining lecture on "A Review of Hoosier Poets," at the Washington school building last night In connec tion with the county t teachers' ;asso-l elation. There was a good-sized audience and the speaker made bis subject delightfully interesting. . dwelt mostlv UDon the minor poets ot the state, those who had not attained foremast rank as leading poets, and recited selections from' their poems. Sarah J. Bolton . was the .foremost-woman poet of Indiana and James Whitcomb Riley, he said, was the "greatest poet of the, English speaking world. He was the Robert Burns of Scotland.
