The following from the Bremen Enquirer gives theopinion of an outsider on the failure of the road election here: Tuesday Center township votd on the road proposed to be built from Plymouth to the south' Kme of the township, reaching wrthdn two miles of Argos. It was defeated by a vote of 329. for and 714 against the proposition, and a "wtayfaring man, ever though a fool" can ee why. It was proposed to expend about $7,500 per, mile for a road leadiing from nowhere to nowWere, white it is a matter of common knowledge that very good country roads not so good as this one was proposed to be, tmt yet very good country- roads ten feet wilde are built for around $2,000 per mile, material being shipped in. The attempt to hitlkl & Roman chariot road at such cost, almost solely for the benefit of Plymouth at Ute exrense of all the people of Cen ter township, constitutes the most serious drscousragement to good roads sentiment that could hhve been conceived. Every precinct in' the township returned a stiff majority the road exceot the hrrf in Pivmouth. Irn the seventh precinct, at Inwood ohlv six votes were cast for the rrfaid 'and 158 against it. This electfom cannot fairly be ronsildered an expresston of the people ' of Center township wt trnod roads. It was merelv a rJcrhteously indignant protest of people proposed to be taxed without adequate benefit to build a costly boulevard1 for Plymouth and the result should not be surpnsimg.

Tlie old saying of "The devil take the hindmost" is having an illustration on these reform days. Graft, bribery and various forms of robbery throuli high finance have been; rampant in this country for a quarter of a century. Men have amassed fortunes by crooked methods and retired to private life respected and toadied to some Ihave cone to their gravels in peace and left large sums to their children. The bribe-givers and takers the bank ers violating the laws during the recent years are no worse than were their predecessors. They simply are later in the business, and Ihave been caurght in the rising tide of public sentiment They are the "hindmost" in the the business and probably think that the devil is, taking them.

"PROMOTE WHEAT.

urdue Experiment Sution Will Begin Experiment Along a New Line. Th e .. Purdue expenmenjt jsrtati'on which has done so much jto emcourage more intelligent corn culture and beef raksang and dairying will shortly devote spe cial attentJon to increased wheat production on Indiana farms. Prof. G. L. Christie, who ad dressed the Grain Dealers Asso ciation at a recent meeting, ex pressed' his belief that the wheat production in Indiana; can be reatlv increased. The average yiefld of wheat in Indiana for the last five years has been 13.4 bu shels an acre. In Greait Brstain he average is thirty-four bushels an acre, and in Germany twentyseven bushels an aero. Bv proper fertilization and rotation of crops and improved niethoUs of cultivation, the Purdue' experiment station has . found it easy to increase the average Indiana yield more than ten bushels to the acre. For the last twenty years there has been an average yeiki on the PurVIue -farm of twenty-eight bushels an acre, and the natural conditions there are no better than they are in the other wheat rowing "sections of -the state. Prof. Christie expresses, the belief that it will be easy enough to increase the average yield, in Indiana five bushels on the acre. About 2,300,000 acres are given to tlie wheat growing industry in Indiana each year and Prof. Christie points out that an increase in the yield of one bushel an acre woatld mean a total increase in ,the income from the source of $2,500,000. Tlie wheat growing industry ' is receiving attention in a number of states. Kearly all of the states. where this gram is produced have an unusually low yield. Only Nebraska beats Indiana. Mutilated Stamp Not Redeemed If a man had some rmitilated postage stamps, some mutilated paper money and -some mutilated coins arid endeavored to save something out of the 'general wTeckage he would be inclined to the opinion that Uncle San is a triflle inconsistent. In the first place he would find that his mutilated stamps were not redeemable at postoffices. If his coins were badly worn he would find also that they were not redeemable, though he may dispose of them a'si bullion. If the corns were only bent or even twisted, however, he could Ivave them redeemed if they had become injured in a fire without having lost any of their - weight. His paper money he would find, could be redeemed, even though it had reached a stage'where the ordinary man could not well distinguish just what it was. There seems to be no explanation available, as to -why Uncle Sam behaves in this manier. It is suggested that if he redeemed postage -stamps it would be necessary to have a separate department in (Washington devoted to this work. Of coiirse, a large warm, moist man is apt to become a trifle incensed when he discovers that a c-uantity of his postage stamps bave become gum mod together and in an affectionate conglomeration and that though he paid spot cash for those stamps he has no recourse. However, if he had invested his money in the regulation stamped envelopes, and thiese em-elopes were mutilated by wrong addresses or in some such; manner, he could have the envelopes redeemat.e for a certain per cent not for cash. The regulation in regard to not redeeming postage stamps is an old one and bears with it the provision that no mutilated stamps may be used in transporting mail matter. The latter provision, however was not very carefully enforced up to within a short time ago, when orders were sent out by the denartment that it I .notll(1 be gidly enforced, and that a stamp must not be used even thoutrh onlv a very small portion of it was missing. So ricid was the order, in. fact, that if there are, several stamps on a letter and one stamp overlaps another it destroys the carrying power of the stamp, thus partly covered. Of course, part of the stamp so covered might have a small portion of it missing. But iust whv all this is as it is seem unexplained. A Lawyer Learned His Lesson. An exchanlge has this interesting account of a lawyer's conversionto total abstinence. For years he had been the liberal patron: of a saloon whose proprietor was soon able to purchase, a house and !ot. To this particular lawyer's -surprise the saloon keeper -engaged another to examine and pass upon the abstract of title. He instituted inquires. Why did the saloon keeper turn away from his own customer and give business to 'a man who never bought anything of him nor any other saloon keeper? The saloon keeper was amazed at the complaint ; he thought the explanation ought to be plain enough. 'IWlbdn I've got business," he said with childhkc frankness, "I want it done- by a sober lawyer." Sus enough. The reason was so sensible and cogent that the bibulous lawyer yiekkul to it and has not touched liquor since. : ; .
