Entered at the Postoffice at Plymouth, Indiana as second-class matter. Plymouth, Indiana, August 6, 1908. THE MICHIGAN STREET JOINT Again the Michigan street "booze joint" is in the limelight. This is the same saloon -.vhich excited such in dignation a few months ago because of the fact that immoral women and girls were allowed to drink and ca "rouse therein. It is undoubtedly he most disorderly house in the uty, fights and lesser holdups being every night occurrences. The building wherein the dive operates is owned by C. W. Metsker, editor of the Ply mouth Democrat, and said "dive" has that editor's "editorial support." In the meager account of the hold up, which was given in the- Democrat Monday evening, it states that the robbery occurred in a saloon in Plymouth. It is such a lawless saloon as thi which drives the jaw-abiding saloon keepers out of business1, and all should unite in trying to expel the t North Michigan street dive, fromhe city. Jt J J Candidate Barnnart editor of tae Rochester Sentinel declines the .'r. vitation to publish the ravings t ih ; down and out McCarmick of SuiKe county. The candidate editor sees what his1 would be supporters do not, namely th;it the circulation of such trash would do his candidacy nore harm than good. Barnhart wishes to make 'himself popular, however by stating it woild nat be -"square" to publish the short comings personal or political," of his opponent, Mr. Miller. ,s t. The opinion that, a ivave of cjrime is extending over the country sterns to be in verification, a small wave has struck this city. With the robbery in Flosinzier's saloon, three street fights, one supposedly incendiary fire and an attempted hold-up, all within a week, makes things look interesting. Maybe, it's the hot weather. J J Jß Indianapolis Independent: Eclitoi Barnhart, of the Rochester Sentinel, has beert given the privilege of being "flattened out" by the road roller ol one Chas. V! Miller, of GoshM.

J J Jt Th Brewers and salbon tuen of Indiana will try their strength in th state election this fall. ' It s too bad that the weaker party must invoke snch alliance to entertain a hope ci victory.

Tested, and Untested. v Mr. Taft haa been variously tried in the public service. Mr. Bryan is untried. Mr. Taft has been doing, while Mr. Bryan has been talking One is a man of known performance; the other is a man of promises only. Mr. Taft has identified himself with no issues that he hiaes; Mr. Bryan conceals several that he ync- advo cated with the greatest energy. Mr Taft has no record of defeat or failure; Mr. Bryan has been twice defeated in a national electJon by & large electoral majority and a margin of from C0O.000 to 800,000 in the popular vote. Mr. Taft has had a long experience in high judicial positions; asa cabinet officer, governor in the Philippines, pacificator i.i Cubi and organizer in the great work at Panaama. Mr. Bryan has no such credit mark. For the last twelve years hi business has been that of presidential candidate and antiadministratiou politician. WHle Taft has been busy in constructive statesmanship Bryan has been a radical agitator, seeking to pull down what ha3 been done so that he ran shape national affairs after his own rashly experimental fashion. Taft points to his record in carrying important responsibiliaes. Bryan 'has never borne any. As a worker in a large sense Taft Is knoiwn and Byan unknown. St. Louis Democrat. ' ! Must Have Indiana Offices. Tae attorney-general has given an opinion holding that a corporation created under the laws of this state jmust have a place of business in the state. The question was raised by Frank Grubbs, in sending out requests for the annual reports from Indiana corporations, found that several of the companies created under the laws of this state now have their Offices in Chicago. The purpose in gathering the reports from copora-tkms-is to see to it that the law is being observed.

BREWERS FUND

REACHED MILLION THAT AMOUNT HAS BEEN RAISED TO OPPOSE WATSON FOR GOVERNORKENTUCKY WILL LEND FINANCIAL AID. Various estimates are placed upon the amount of money which the brewers are spending in Indiana to bring about the election of the Democratic state and legislative tickets. Every estimate yet made by any one in a position to farm a correct judgment runs into six figures, and there are some who believe the brewers' fund will easily reach a million dollars, says an exchange. There are about twenty-six brewers in the state which are understood to be heavy contributors. All of the breweries having agencies in Indiana also are among the subscribers. An Indianapolis man,, who declares he has his information directly from a leading brewer, hast prepared a tabu lated estimate of the fund raised to d:feat Congressman Watson and the Reputblicarr legislative candidates. The total, according to his statement is $1.025,000. He figures that six breweries have contributed $25,000 each, making $150,000; that ten more brewer have chipped in $10,000 each, making $100000; that ten of the smaller brewer have put in $5,000 each, making $50,000; that 500 of the. larger saloons of the state have added $100,000 more, or $200 each; that 500 saloons of a seconJ grade have been put down on the contribution list for $150 each, making $175,000, that 3,0000 saloons are .dawn for $100 each, and 1,000 saloons for $50 each, making $350,000 more. The contribution of the outside breweries which have agencies in In diana is estimated at $100,000, and, finally, it is estimated that the French Lick and West Baden hotel compan ics are sufficiently interested in the defeat of Watson and the election of a Democratic -nouse or representa tives to contribute $50,000 each. There are now signs that to the brewers' and saloon keepers' fund will be added a large contribution from the distillers. Governor Wil son, of Kentucky, informed Indiana men who saw him at Cincinnati on Taft notification day that some of the Kentucky distillers are much con cerned over the prospect of a county local ootion law in Indiana. From reliable authority it is learned that the brewers are expecting substantial financial aid from that source in their efforts to carry Indiana for the Dem ocrats. ' TURNING OUT MILLIONS IN EMERGENCY NOTES. $100,000,000 Ready for Delivery With in Six Week Issued Under the New Law. The Treasury official., are making satisfactory progress an getting out emergency notes .under the circula tion act passed at the last session of Congress. . Acting Secretary Coolidge said Saturday that the Bureau Df Engraving and Prirrtrn under the direction of Superintendent Ralph is delivering to the Treasury from $2,000,000 to $3,500,000 in the new currency daily, and that by the mid die of September fully $100,000,000 would be ready for delivery to the banks on call. It is expected that by the time Congress meets in Decern ber, the whole $500,000,000 authorized will he printed and ready for distri bution. .Up to this' time only one enter gency currency association has been formed under the new currency law The banks in the District of Colum bia had their articles of association approved by the Secretaryj of the Treasury some weeks ago, tout the banks in New York and other finan cial centers are not disposed fully to commit themselves pending a deter mination of the question whether a bank joining an association can with draw from it after complying with al the acquirements of the law. The Treasury officials regard 1 this ques tion as purely academic, but they have the matter under consideration and it is not uonlikely that a decision will be reached on this point in very short time. The act itself is entirely silent on the subject. And Yet More Of It. Because the "itomachsi of the worn an supposed to be Mrs. Belle Gun ness and those of her children were mixed, making it impossible to identify each, the body of Mrs. Gunness may be exhumed. Prof. Haines, who found poison in the stomachs, will be asked to examine the liver and kidneys of Mrs. Gunness. FIGHT AGAINST RATE LAWS. Railroads Ask the Court to Restrain Arkansas Commissioners. An application was made to Judge Vandeveniter, ,o the United States Circuit Court at St. Paul, by attorneys representing all the railroads operating in Arkansas for a temporary order restraining the State Railroad Commission of Arkansas from enforcing the rate laws of that State until their validity can be tested in the courts. The application was made at St. Paul because the United States Circuit Judge of Arkansas was not available. The Arkansas railroad commissioners are the defendants. Their attorneys alleged that the commissioners are not ready for an immediate hearing of (the case and asked for two months' time. No decision was reached Wednesday, though the judge declared himself in favor of a postponement until September at least.

CALLS BRYAN SELFISH.

Independence League Nominee Re plies to Nebraskan. Thomas L. Hisgen Independence party nominee -for president, discrcdts Mr. Bryan's assertion -hinting that the Independence party's mission is to help the Republican party and injure the Democratic party's cause. Mr. Hisgen has given out the folowing statement to the United Press: "Mr. Bryan's wail about the Inde pendence party is just what might be expected from him. It is both shallow and misleading. He beseeches; the people to keep right on choosing between two evils, because he is tihe candidate of one of them, and he is trying to create the impression that the Independence party is going to. draw the great bulk of its strength from the Democratic party. Mr. Br"an will find out that he is mistaken; that the people are thinking for themselve's, and know better than to take any stock in such statements from him. He ought to get away from his own selfish viewpoint once in a while. "Mr. Bryan says the Democrats and Independence party platforms are much alike. Ir 1? true that his platform contains tKrii. of the principles that the Independence party enunciated at its Chicago conference last February, but it is also a fact that it does not contain a single relerence to certain great vital questions that commercial, industrial and other elements are dee-ply, interested in. i i "When Mr. Bryan speaks about the Democratic party offering the most reform, he is entitled to a seat on the ninstrel half-circle. When one thinks i the 'reformers' who are promot ing his candidacy he must be convulsed by the 'reform' joke. He Invented Ice Cream Soda. George Davidson, fifty-nine years old. now living at Vevay, where he is employed in a flour miJJ, claims the distinction yi inventing the popular drink knuwn as ice cream soda When he was but twenty years old, at Madison, in 1870, he owned a con fectionery and ice cream parlor, run ning a soda fountain n connection therewith and one day, having a desire to quench his thirst with some thing new, he added ice cream to the ?yrtip and soda water and found it delightful. CHARITY Y0RK BEST IN INDIANA DR. RILEY EXPERT FROM ST. LOUIS SAYS HOOSIER STATE LEADS ALL OTHERSRESULT OF HIS RESEARCHES GIVEN IN INTERVIEW Dr. F. J. Riley, of St. Louis representing the St. Louis School of Phil anthropy, who, for the last two jnonths, has been making a study of the outdoor relief system of the Indi ana Boar4 of State Charities, Satur day gave an interview setting forth his opinion of the work conducted bv the Indiana board. In his work here Dr. Riley has been aided by from three to seven assistants. He .'11 leave soon for his vacation, but some of his assistants will remain throughout August. "I have found since I have been here" said Dr. Riley "that people from many States come to Indiana for the best methods of doing charity work. In fact, I have found that in this line of work Indiana stands first among all of the states' of the Union. ."People come here to study the best methods of outdoor relief the best plans of getting reports from State institutions, and they even come to inspect the manner of keeping the records' of this office. "These facts have struck me as being worth consideration, but there is nothing strange about all of it. The work in this State is certainly up to a high mark. I have sought the reasAin for this and I believe it lies in the progressive spirit of the Indiana board. The development toi the present standard also indicates4 hard1 and efficient work on the part of the secretaries of the board. "Perhaps the present secretary has done more than any other to put the charity work of the State on the high plane which it now enjoys and it is to be hoped that Mr. Butler will soon have his health fully restored so that he may continue his good work. '"The continuation of this work in Indiana means much, not only to the people of this State but to those of all other States, for, in watching the .example set by Indiana, all other States will surely be benefitted. After a short vacation Dr. Riley (wiir retufn to his work as professor !'4f sociology in the University of Mis souri, with which institution he :s connected, as well as the St. Louis School of Philanthropy. The research iwhich Dr. Riley has been conducting rfor the School of Philanthropy was made possible by the Russell Sage foundation. All the investigation has related to outdoor relief or to that class of relief vhich is ,given outside the regular charitable institutions, such relief for example, as is given by township trustees. Bryan Editors Plan Campaign. Preliminary to the meeting of the State Democratic Editorial association the executive and pre,ss committees met at Indianapolis Thursday and discussed the campaign and the policies! to be pursued by Democrats editors. All Democratic papers will be served with plate matter by the press bureau without cahrge and will give at least one page of each weekly and three columns of each daily issue to politics.

MILLER GIVES

HIS VIEWS REPUB. CONG. CANDIDATE DE FINES HIS ATTITUDE ON LEADING QUESTIONS TO WORKINGMEN'S CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE. Hon. Charles W. Miller of Gosh-n, Republican nominee for congress', has defined his position relative to legislation affecting the interests of organized labor, whidh congress has Hiad under consideration at regular intervals. His attitude is given in a communication to the Workingmen's Xonpolitical Campaign committee of South Bend, a department created by the Central Labor union. Among the inquiries addressed to Mr. Miller 4o ascertain his attitude upon the questions involved, were thb following: "First. The 1 ill to regulate and limit injunctions. "Second. Tihe bill extending the application of the eight ihour law to all government work whether by con tract or sub-contractors. "Third. The amendment of thi Sherman Anti-Trust law so as to make its provicioons inapplicable to trade union or farm-.is' organization. "Fourth. The child labor law as proposed by Senator Beveridge." A summary of Mr. Miller's: views on the questions is g'ven in tlie following: "1st. Injunction should be issued only when property rights arc involv ed, where the danger is imminent and the threatened damage irreparable. "2d.. The writ should never be issued without notice except where a real emergency exists to prevent irreparable injury, and tlien as soon as possible there should be a hearing without any delay. "3d. I am in favor of a statute to regulate the :ssue of injunctions, par ticularly defining the exceptional character of the cases in which re straining orders may issue without notice, and that the order so made -i!all cease to operate beyond a certain fixedjand very short period, during which' time notice shall be served and, a hearing had, unless postponed at the request of 'he defendant. "2. Your second measure, 'The bill extending 7the application of the errght-houf law to all government work, whether by contract or subcontractors,' can be unqualifiedly an swered , ir. affirmative. I believe the eight-hour law should apply to all government .vork, whether by direct Contract or when done by sub-con-tractors. "3. Your third measure refers to 'The amendment of the Sherman .inti-trust law so as to make its pro; visions inapplicable to trade unions or farmers' organizations." Section one of the Sherman anti-trust law is as follows: 'Every contract, combin ation in (Ühe form of a trust, or other wise, or conspiracy in restraint of trade or commerce among the sever al states' is hereby declared to be il legal. "I have examined the Sherman anti-trust law with some care, and read all of the decisions of reported cases growing out of the same and am of the opinion that any, contract, combination or conspiracy, to be in restraint ' of trade, must involve the use of means of Which the effect is to ipjure or restrain trade, and that a contract, combination or conspiracy in restraint af trade is therefore a contract, comlbination or conspiracy to restrain or injure trade. Such be ing the case, in my judgment, the law would he inapplicable to trade unions engaged in a .peaceful and lawful strike to obtain better wages, and organized for tihe purpose of better in gtheir condition. However, should the courts hold otherwise, then think the law should be amended. ' "4. Your fourth proposition is the child labor law as proposed by 'Senator Beveridge. Senator Bever idge's child labor bill is undoubtedly rigCiit in principle. Many of our state have child labor laws and some of the stages have enacted laws that are e.n tirely reasonable. It would be an ex cellenlt thing to have a proper child labor law that would apply to the en tire country and to interstate commerce. The only question that arises is as to the constitutionality of such a law enacted. I believe tfiiat we can afford to enact sire ha law, and to leave the question as to constitutionality ofr determination by our courts." PAN-AMERICAN RAILROAD. Work to be Begun on Guatemala Division Soon. It is announced by J. M. Neeland, vice-president and general manager of the Pan-American railroad that construction will be commenced on the Guatemala division of- that line as soon as the present rainy season is over. The concession for extending the road from the Mexicar-Guatc-mala border to a connection with the Guatemala railroad was obtained by Mr. Neeland from the Guatemala government, several months ago. Only about forty miles o5 track have to be huilt in order to fill in this gap, and on its completion it will be possible to make an all-rail trip between the United States and Guatemala City. A regular passenger train service is operated over the Pan-American between its connection with the National Tehuantepec railroad and Tapachula, situated within twenty-five mites of the Guatemala torder. semi-weekly passenger train service is operated between Tapachula and the end of the line on the border between the two countries. At present there is no town at the end of the line, but a syndicate of Americans is preparing to lay off a town site there.

CHEMIST FINDS MALT.

Experts Disagree As to Ingredients cf Tonica, But Declare Drink Contains Small Proportion of Alcohol. Two analyses, one offered by H. E. Bishop, representing the State Food and Drug Commission, who said that "Tonica" was made from malt, and another presented by Dr. T. Victor Keene, former city sanitarian at In dianapolis, who stated that the drink was not made from malt, which were brought tin as evidence during the initial session of the test case against August Erbrich, who was- charged with selling liquor without a license, at that city Thursday, made a confined question for Judge Ihomas C. Whallon to decide. According to Deputy Prosecutor Hack, who appeared for the state, the case was based on the fact that "Tonica" was made from malt and that it was against the law to sell any such liquor so made without a license. Attorney Henry Seyfried, representing the defndant and th Indianapolis Brewing Compan", whi.h manufactures xthe drink, alleged a different process. Each had an g, o S A cStojpoi Louandm hsoft analysis on his söde and the lawye-s will have the puzzle to solve when they appear for argument in the Police Court. Mr. Bishop, who is a state food and drug chemist, working under the State Poard of Health, showed in his analysis thai there is alcohol by weight .42 per cent and alcohol by volume .525 per cent in "Tonica." He said that the phosphoric acid was .0187 grams per 100 cubic centimeters and that the degree of fermentation was 16.27 per cent. In giving his analysis Dr. Keene did not d sagree on th- amount of alcohol, giv;ng practically the same figures as did Mr. Bishop. Dr. Keene said that a per.-on could not become intoxicated, no matter how much "Tonica" he drank. Deputy Prosecutor Hack stated to the court that the matter of intoxication made no difference bin that everything reste don the use of malt. Dr. Keene had said that the secret process used by the brewery in making "Tonica" made it -impossible to learn the details, but that, . m hi opinion, malt was not used. He was questioned on the stand for an hour and he stated that there was a great difference between beer and "Tonica" in that beer contained ten times as much alcohol TWELVE BEST SHOTS IN STATE TEAM OF MILITIAMEN WHO WILL REPRESENT INDI, ANA IN NATIONAL CONTESTPERSONNEL OF THE RIFLE TEAM.

The best marksmen in the different companies were selected at company shoots. Following this, battalion teams were selected, and, finally, regimental teams. The three regimental teams met at Fort Benjamin Harrison, and the State team was selected. All the men and officers of the state team havef been certified by their commanding officers as being regularly commissioned officers or enlisted men of the Indiana National Guard and as having performed at least 75 per cent, of all military duty lawfully required of them during the last year.

PLANS FOR THE ANNUAL CAMP

ADJ. GEN. ORAN PERRY NOTIFIED BY BRIG. GEN. WM. H. CARTER CONCERNING MANEUVERS TO BE HELD IN SEP- . TEMBER. Oran Perry, adjutant-general, has iust received from Brig.-Gen. William H. Carter, of the United States army, commanding the Department of the Lakes, plan's in detail for the camp of instruction, to be held at Fort Benjamin Harrison, in September. This encampment will, from all indications, be the grandest military demonstration ever held in Indiana. Gen. Perry estimated, and his estimate is conservative, he says, that there will be 14,000 State troops and 1,500 regulars in camp. The regulars to take part in.-th encampment will be as follows: Three troops of the Thirteenth Cavalry, two batteries of the Fourth Field Artillery , and three companies of the Twenty-seventh Infantry, all from Fort Sheridan; eleven companies of the Tenth Infantry,, from Forf Benjamin Harrison; four companies of the Twenty-eiguith Infantry, from Fort Snelling, Minn.; one signal company, from Fort Omaha, Neb.; and part of a hospital corps from Washington barracks, District of ColumMa. i The different states will be represented by troops as follows: Indiana Three regiments of infantry, two battcries of 'field artillery, one Horchkriss battery, one company of hospital corps, and one detachment of signal corps. Illinois Three regiments of infantry an da detachment from the 'ssigr.al corps. West Virginia Two regiments of infantry and a detachment from the signal corps. Michigan Three regiments of infantry, one battery of field artillery, two troops of cavalry, one company of the hospital corps, one company of engineers and a detachment from the signal corps. Wisconsin One regiment of infantry. Kentucky One regiment of infantry and one detachment from the signal corps. According to the schedule of exercises forwarded by; General Carter, the hianeuvers will begin September 1, and the Ohio State troops will remain until September 10. Then will come the state troops from Indiana, Illinois and West Virginia. These troops will remain until September 20, inclusive. Then the state troops Inf Kentucky, Michigan and Wisconsin will be in camp from September 21 to 30, inclusive. , Beginning September 11, when the Indiana troops go into camp the first days exercises will consist of establishing camp, drawing ration's, etc. Then the exercises will.; come as follows: September 12, advance, rear and flank guards and patrols; September 13 Sunday (open;; September 14, outposts and reconnaissance; September 15, formations for attack and 'defense, battalions and squadrons; September 17, same for regiment; Septdnibeir 9X combfned maneuvers, regulars and militia; Sep tember 19, maneuver; September 20, breaking camp and entraining. While ths schedule sets forth that the Indiana troops will break camp on Sunday, September 20, General Perry says arrangements will be made for the Indiana soldiers to break camp and start for their homes on Saturday, September 13. Sunday it is impossible for many of the Indiana militia companies to get railroad accommodations ito their homes, as local passenger trams do not run regularly on Sunday. It would be impracticable for the Indiana troops to remain in camp until Monday, September 21, because there would not be proper provision for their subsistence for this time and again they would be in the 'way of the troops from other States .which are expected to arrive Monday. For these reasoais General Perry says the Indiana troops will break camn on Saturday, September, 19. All of the maneuvers of benefit to the Indiana troops will have ben completed by Saturday evening, September 19, FLED ON EVE OF MARRIAGE. Lewis Lee Lacked Money for Wedding Tour and Decamped. Because he realized at the eleventh hour that he did not have sufficient money with which to pay the expen scs of his proposed wedding and honeymoon tour Lewis Lee, the son of Mrs. Anna Lee, widow, of Crawfordsville, departed unceremoniously on the eve of his marriage to Miss Gladys Livengood, ! the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Livengood. The wedding, which was to have been celebrated Thursday night, has been indefinitely postponed. Young Lee, who is known as' a reliable young man, has been working steadily as a grocery clerk in Crawfordsville for several years. The bride-elect has ibeen employed as an operator in one of the Crawfordsville telephone offices, and ior many months has been saving her money for the marriage. Before leaving for parts unknown, the prospective bridegroom wrote a loving and endearing note to his fiancee, closing with the ' statement, "When this note reaches you, I will mbe far far away. Good-by; God bless you." Although prostrated over the desertion, Miss Livengood stih proclaims her faith in her lover, believing he will return, and she has not yet abandoned hope of becoming Mrs1. Lee. It is presumed that Lee has gone to Grey Bull, Wyo., as he has a married sister there, and a man answering his description bought a ticket for that place.

Continuing the resolution records the appreciation of the conference ot the services rendered by the peace conferees at The Hague, its thankfulness for the work achieved and for the pr'ncdples of international responsibility acknowledged by the delegates. ARMY'S ORANGE UNDERWEAR Government Will Try to Counteract Actinic Ray Effects. Beneath their dull khaki uniforms, the soldiers in the Philippines will soon present a riot of colors. Ttiis is due to the' Government's desire to counteract the heat in our insular possessions. In an effort to project the men against the actinic rays a series of experiments will be made in the use of a wide color scheme in the underwear of the boys in active service. The first trial will be that of orange red clothing. Five thousand suits of underwear of this colör soon will be sent to tfie far East, accompanied by the same number of hat linings of the same hue. Other shades will be tried if the orange fails in the things hoped. NINE MILLION ACRES FOR SALE BECOMES AVAILABLE TO PUR CHASERS UNDER NEW LAW IN OKLAHOMA WAS FORMERLY TIED UP ' BY INDIAN POSSESSION. According to the terms of-an act of the last session of Congress re moving restrictions on the alienation of land owned by members of the five civilized Itribcjs Vf Indians in Oklahoma which went into effect on Monday last, about nine million acres of land which, has been tied, up has become available to purchasers. Acting Secretary Pierce, of the In terior Department, gave out the fol lowing statement "showing the effect of the law: "The act removes all re strict'ons from the alienation of the land of 63,017 members of the five civilized tribes and alsoi removes the restrictions from all of the lands ex cept the .homesteads of 6,103 more Indians of those tribes. The first item of 65,017 includes all- Indians having less than one-half Indian blood and also the freedmen and in termarried whites. "The second item of 6t103 ate the members of the tribes which have from onenhalf to three-fdbrths In dian blood. The entire population of the five civilized tribes, according to the approved enrollment, is 101,227, which leaves only 30,107 unaffected "The restrictions oi these 30,107 Indians may be removed in Individual cases by -the Secretary of the Inter ior on proper showing that the In,dian is qualified to take care of his own affairs. There are only about 15,000 Indians in Oklahoma outside of the five civilized tribes." The law will go far toward putting the lands owned by the Indian por lion of the population of Oklahoma on a footing with that of other'resi dents of the Territory. ACKNOWLEDGE IT.
