Plymouth, Ind., November 24 1904
There-election of Bevendge, though a matter of course, will be hailed with immense satisfaction in Icdiana and all over the union May the legislature be equally fortunate in findins another senator. LsGrange Standard.
Senator Parks majority in the district composed of Marshall and Koscluske counties was 1,300 a most flattering complimentary to a worthy representative. Indianapolis lndepen dent.
Appearances indicate that the President iotends to have a cabinet of comparatively young men. The rumor that Senator Spooner would be made Attorney General may be disposed of by the fact that that position has been offered to Ex-Governor Black of New York. But as his law practice is worth $100,000 annuolly it Is hardly probable that he will take the place at a salary of $8,000.
Since 1824 Indiana has gone democratic at presidential elections ten times, republican nine times and Whig twice. Illinois was carried by the democrats ten times during the same period and by the republicans eleven times. Ohio has gone republican at every presidential flection since the party was orgaaized in 1856.
In commenting on the cost of running for office in the east, the Columbia City Post says: "It cost Diggins $22,189.53 to run for governor of New York, and yet that is $12,000 less than Douglas paid for his campaign in Massachusetts. A poor man has to business to aspire for office in the eist or for certain positions in the west either If he hasn't got the price, he is out of it. Both Hlggins and Douglas ate rich and were not out for the salary but for the honor."
Henry C. Taber, residing south of town, asserts through the Culver Citizen, thaw the choosing of trustees should be isolated from every other election. -Ilave the trustees chosen in the spring," be says, "when the
people are not intoxicated with party patriotism and liable to vote lor a nominee simply because both are politically of the seme faith. The trustee is responsiblt for the financial welfare of the township. If competent and honest bis power to spread prosperity within the small limits of his jurisdiction is more than the president of the United States If incapable and untrustworthy, be may wreck and ruin the the little community dependent upon him. Giving weight to these considerations it would seem that even women sbonld have voice in bis election and especially widows and other female property holders whose interest be subserves. By all means gtt the office as far away from politics as possible. A spring election would do it."
'lhe idea! Our old friend Dan McDonald, who has been preaching and editing democracy in the good old democratic county of Marshall ever since Hector was a'pup and a good while before only carried the county by eighty. Butthat isn't as bad as it looks on its face. Dan's comrades on the democratic ticket went down in defeat and Roosevelt carried the county by 100. Indianapolis Independent. Under a resurrected statute Chicago is dealing with holdup men in a way that will rid that city of a most undesirable class of criminals. Within one week nine men have been sent to the penitentiary for life. That is the kind of punishment that will deter other men from adopting criminal pur sufts. The law of Indiana is entirely too easy on criminals. It encourages them instead of discouraging or terrifying them.
As chairman of the house committee on postoffices and postroads, Congressman Jesse Overstreet, from now until! the time congress convenes, will be engaged in working out the details of the postoffice appropriation bill. When it is understood that the estimates for the next postoffice year, beginning July 1, 1905, call for an aggregate appropriatlrn of $183,000,000,
divided and subdivided into hundreds of different Items, an idea is to be gleaned of the amount of work that is before the Indianapolis congressman and his associates. Congressman Overstreet has been talking of some of the difficulties and perplex ing problems that are certain to beset bis committee. The all absorbing question with the postofflce committee Is how to devise means for additional revenue," said he. "Thus far we have discovered ncne. This ear the deficit in the postofflce amounted to about $8,000,000, and the estimated deficit for ' the next year will be at least $14,000,000. The problem would be solved if we could find avenues giving us additional , rev enue." - s .
The Nicholson Law will in all probability receive considerable attention r.t the coming session of the Legislature, The old members will not forget the storm of protest that arose all over the state during the last session, when an effort was made to overthrow this law.
Lafayette Le?.der: F;r the first time In the history of the present generation Tippecanoe county furnishes the state of Indiana with the governor. It is an bonor tottie county to be asked to furnish two state oJflccrs at the same time. We ought to be a little proud of that fact.
In the next house of representatives the republicans will have the largest majority in the history of congress Out of a total of 386 members the repu pi leans will have 251, the democrats 135, giving the republicans a clear majority of 116 votes enough to pass any measure they please. It is the opinion of politicians in Washington that no extra session of Congress will be called ; that the President will not now propose any legislation looking to ad. crease of representation in the house on account of the disfranchisement of the negro vote in the South. There are reports to the effect that in due time the President contemplates making a tour of the South.
HEALTH REPORT. The diptherla epidemic at the Mexico orphanage was the worst in the state during the month of October, according to the report of Dr. J. N. Hurty, secretary of the state board of health. There were our deaths, according to bis statement, and one of the victims was a Logansport child. It Is stated that there were 56 cases at the orphanage. Consumption caused the most deaths 334; pneumonia, 113; typhoid fever, 164; diptherla, 17; scarlet fever, 11; diarrhoeaal. diseases, 204; influenza, 4; child bed fever, 6; cancer, 103; violence, 148; smallpox, 19. The total number of deaths in the month was 2,702, a rate of 12.2. In October, 1903, the deaths numbered 2,272, a rate 12.0.
War Claims Allowed. Governor Durbin has just receivea notice from the war department mat vouchers to the amount of $9,191.51 had been allowed the state of Indiana for money expended in the mobilization of the state troops for the Spanish-American war. This money was expended by the state after the troops were mustered into the government
service. The claims had formerly
ly been disallowed, but were granted under an act of April 27, 1904.
Cecsltrfeited GUzess, llr. Broughton Brandenburg, writing in Collier's for November 19, under the title of "Our Imported Criminals," exposes the outrages perpetrated on this government by a Conspiracy between some of our own worst politicians and criminal agents abroad. He says: ' There are sixty-five thousand f4audulent or defective citizens' papers in Greater New York, seventy thousand in Chicago, and something less than a million on a conservative estimate in the United Slates. Few of the holders of these have been prevented from exercising the franchise in this year's Presidential election, and considerably more than half of them will never be detected, even with a revision of our poor helter-skelter system legislated to fit the conditions of 1802, Fraudulent naturalization is the widest field into which alien criminals have put their energies, and they have reaped such a harvest that United States District-Attorney General Henry L. Burnettlu a conversation with the writer not long ago termed it "of the calibre of an international conspiracy." It is the work of the Irish politician established in this country with the reaiy vlllany or Ignorance of the new-come Hebrew, Italian, Hungarian and Syrian to assist him. If the alien perjurer, countefeiter, and forger has the excuse of political assistance and incitation in the matter of fraudulent naturalization, he cert Inly has none in the present
nourishing systems of smuggling goods and Immigrants both highly profitable fields of endeavor. In the early days of my Investigations on the Continent, I was astounded to fitd that it is commonly understood all over Europe that any man who has been denied admittance to the United States, as a criminal, anarchist, or person of loathsome and contagious diseases, need not despair if he has enough money to fee the smugglers. They laugh at our barriers, A Fine Success. The musicale given by the members of the German Evangelical church at the opera house Thursday evening was a grand success. The entertainment was first class, all those taking part acquitting themselves with honor. Especially was this true of Miss Iiene and Messrs. Fred and Gussie Kuhn, who rendered a violin, flute and piano number. The orchestra enlivened the occasion with some choice selections and the large number p. esent were delighted with the evening's entertainment. The proceeds will amount to axut $60.
