ROOSEVELT ROUTE FOR HA TOUR
CONSERVE ROAD FUNDS.
County Commissioners Plans for Road Building and Management of Funds Interesting. At the seventh annual session of county commissioners and other county officials of the state, who have been in session the past two davs at Fort Wayne, that of the county commissioners was most important. The question of best howto build ami conserve the road tax and apply such moneys to the best advantage for all concerned throughout the state was discussed. A vehicle tax on all automobiles and carriages was advised, as well as all road taxes to be paid into the county treasury and all road construction to be built on correct principles under the spervision of competent men. The plan of corporations employing men at a discount to work out their road taxes to be abolished entirely was one of the main features under consideration. It was shown that counties are beaten out of thousands of dollars of good practical work, that if properly applied on our public roads would in the end keep them up to to the proper standard of usefulness. These annual gatherings are of great benefit to the state and in the end will accomplish much good. BODY IS NOT IDENTIFIED Remains of Man Who Was Killed by Train Near Burket Still at Undertaking Rooms. According to the statement of the Meutone Gazette, the lndy of the civil war veteran found by the side of the Xickle Plate tracks on the morning of Sept. 19, still lies in the JelTeries undertaking rooms at Mentone awaiting identification. Every iHtssible clew to the identity of the dead man has been traced, only to prove disappointing. Advertisements in the city papers have been answered, the trade mark on his coat, the number of his watch, and the G. A. R. and pension records have been investigated without results. Inquiries from people by the name of "Mclntyre," which it is thought xposibIe is the man's name, hrs thus far leen without results, and the old veteran still remains a stranger in a strange land and he who, no doubt has stood before the cannon's mouth on the field of battic, may yet fill a grave to be marked "unknown". The efforts to find the unfortunate man's friends have not vet been abandoned. State Highway Commission. That a movement for better roads and a uniform method of conducting county business will be the big topics before the Indiana Association of County Commissioners became apparent shortly after the convention of that organization had been called to order in Ft. Wayne yesterday. J. C. Crabill, of Indianaiolis, secretary of the Indiana bureau for good roads presented a draft of a bill which lias for its purpose the creation of a .ate highway commission and the utilization of convict labor in the manufacture of road material. Thi would j.brogate the present 'ar rt garding convict labor, and the mat ter promises to precipitate a livel discussion. A similar bill drafted in 1903 died in committee in the legisla ture.

P tiring August the export trade of the United States to every part of the world increased in all over $12,000,000, according to a summary compiled by the bureau of statistics of the department 'of commerce an labor. During the eight months of the calendar vear which , ended with August, the value of exports to Eur ope alone were nearly 020,000,000 and the imports for the same period were more than $552,000,000. Block Signals Favored. Testimony given before the rail road commission of Indiana Thun day on the question of installing block signals on electric lines was of such a nature as to lead t lie coin mission to believe that the signals would be practicable. It is probable that an order for their installation on electric lines will follow soon. It was brought out in the testimony that sections of the New York Central lines using the electric block signal system have discarded absolutely the use of written train orders Operate Trains With Phones. The Lake Erie & Western Thurslay began to operate its trains be tween Indianapolis and Peru by tele phone and, if experiments prove sat isfactory will extend this service over all divisions of the Lake Erie & Western system.

BUNNELL
STILL AFTER ER CONTINUES. AGITATION FOR .REMOVAL .OF .THE "ROCKS AT MOMENCE." NORTH JUDSON MANUFACTURWrites Candidates For Congress Regarding Improvement of the Kankakee River. A. J. Bunnell, a prominent manufacturer, of North Judson has written an open letter to Congressman Barnhart, of the Thirteenth district, and John L. Moorman, the Republican candidate, who is running against Mr Barnhart, this year, and to Congressman Crumpacker of the 10th district, and his Democratic opponent, John B. Peterson, in which he asks them to explain just where they stand on the proposal to have the government improve the Kankakee river by removal of the rock obstruction near Momence, 111. Mr. Bunnell tells them that these obstruct ions interfere with domestic and interstate commerce as well as drainage and sanitation, and that the matter is one of great concern to the people of the counties through which the Kankakee river Hows, and that the people of the Kankakee valley have a right to know where the candidates stand on the question of making the improvement. In his Ietier Mr. Bunnell says that the subject of the obstructions in the Kankakee river has been discussed by the people of that sectym for more than 00 years and that it has received little attention from Congress. The members of congress from the districts affected have been voiceless, he says, notwithstanding there is a good precedent for the direct appropriation of money from the national treasury for the removal of these obstructions. The Illinois river, he says, is but a continuation of the Kankakee and Besplaines river, and hundreds of thousands of dollars have been sien by the government for the improve ment of the Illinois river. Mr. Bun nell points out that the state of Indi ana can not compel Illinois to co-op erate in the removal of the obstruc tions. He says, however, that the In diana legislature did, at one time make an insullicient appropriation for the work. Mr. Bunnell's letter continues: "The people of the Kankakee val lev are entitled to as much considera tion as are the people of other parts of your district, and they do not complain because their representatives have been active in securing appropriations for ithe improvement of harbors along Iike Michigan or for questionable public enterprises along the Calumet, nor because public build ings, among them a federal court huildimr in which a term of court has never been held, have been atjded by the general government, but they are certainly justified in complaining about neglect to include them among the deserving beneficiaries of public favors. They are certainly as deserving of notice as-are the beneficiaries of special legislation in other parts of the United States, and much more deserving when it is considered that their benefits are only incidental to a work that when accomplished will promote the general welfare The Kankakee river is, to say the least, as important as the Tadjxde creek, down in Georgia; Raccoon mil, down in Louisiana, or Mosquito harbor, down in Mississippi, for which river and harbor bills carried appropria tions. It matters not whether on At 1J ä iiier siioiecis you 'insurge or 'standpat,' "I trust that you may not take offense if von are called ujrhi to show your hands on this subject of a con gressional appropriation for the re moval o- Momence rock, and incl dentally those of you who have serv ed in congress may, if you choose, ex plain why you have been so quiet about this matter heretofore." Swat Them Still. rues are a greater menace to health and life now than any other time of the year. The imminent cool weather is drawing them in droves and regiment to seek the warm interior of your homes. Not only are they apparently more numerous but they are also much more dangerous. During the prevalency of typhoid fever at this season of the year the flies are brought into continual contact with the infection. So one houhl be constantly on the alert to safeguard himself and the members of his family against the dangers of the flv-borne disease germs. Swat every fly that enters vour house they are easier to assasinate now because the cool weather has decreas ed their aggressiveness. Bogus Bills; Look Out. The police have been notified by Capt. Hall, of the United States secret service department at Indianapois, that two men are working tbrouuh the state with counterfeit $20 bills. The men are said to be leaded in this direction and business men and others are warned to be on he lookout. Sells Traction Company. A decree ordering the sale of the ndianajiolis & Cincinnati Traction company's property was signed yesterday bv Judge Carter, of the Marion county superior court. The min imum sale price fixed for the property, which has long been in receiver ship, is $1,045,000.-

Much of the. most valuable land in northern Indiana was considered almost worthless thirty years ago. Several of the finest farms now in Marshall county sold for less than ten doll ars an acre fifteen vears ago. borne ot the onion land near Nappanee, now worth three hundred dollars per acre s:ld for three dollars per acre twenty years ago. S. C. Schilling of Culver says : About 22 years ago my brother and I bought over 900 acres of swamp north of Hamlet for about $2-50 an acre. Nine years ago I sold 115 acres of it for $50 an acre, ard this summer the same piece was sold for $125 an acre. Drainage has converted the swamp into as line farming land as can be found anywhere. BILLION MARK Automobile Materials Sent Out Increase, Incoming Falls Shorts. A boom in both directions swept both the imports and exerts of the country across the billion dollar mark during the eight months ending with August.

Though the imports of most of the manufactures' materials increased, silk, wool and fibers fell back a little on account of the exceptionally heavy imports of the proceeding years, in exports unmanufactured cotton decreased by $1,300,000 to $192,500,000 and automobile exports increased from $5,100,000 to $8,300,000. Lumber, leather, manufacturers of iron and steel, sewing -machines, typewriters, scientific instruments, electrical machinery, furniture, also increased, while foodstuffs, including wheat, flour and meats, declined.

GIVES INSPIRING SERMON
TO GONFERENGE PLYMOUTH PASTOR IN INTER ESTING ADDRESS SAYS THAT CHRISTIANITY WILL CONQUER THE WORLD. However, if Christianity is Going to Lift Men, She Must First Create a World for That Life. Rev. Ernest C. Ware ing, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church in Plymouth, delivered the missionary sermon, Thursday afternoon at the .Methodist. conference, at Lanorte. He . , 7 sum : "We are innured to the spirit of progress. All thought and sentiments concerning it are common place. We have grown tired making time upon it, until we. have been carried so far, we have losl its prospective. 1 "We awaken ever and anon with a shock as we discover to what unparalleled heights we have gone and over wh.it distances we have come. Men tell us that our civilization has reached the world level, that its history records the conquest of nations and races, but that now it stands before the open field of the world. "We stop to take our bearings and ü find that we have advanced to the Mace where history registers two great civilizations. One is oriental the other occidental. One has been marching towards the setting sun and now lavs claim to the dawn of anoth er day and the coming in of a new era. One is progressive, active, acsimilative, and destructive; the other is old passive, degenerate and effete One comes with an irresistible im pact upon the other producing a situ at ion which has never appeared in the history of the world. "When we examine the current which sweeps us on we find every reason to believe that the world is ad vancing towards one great civilization, with one great commercial life, one common political life, one com moil moral life and one common fi nancial life. "Indeed, the conviction is gaining groiunl that the hour has struck for a universal religion, that the advance of humanity as a whole requires that we move hence forth under one spirit ual leadership in the worship ol one God and the practice of one religion. "This impact of the Western upon the Eastern civilization has produced a crisis in the religious world y0T thft-irpnius of the relimon of the west is that" of universalism. Its prop - ajranda has always been for "The God. of all the earth. "It is now face to face with its final movement of world conquest. It is under the ul tiiuate inevitable of conquoring or perishing. As Harnack declares, 'From the very beginning Christian ii ionium mi oi'uii ot t r.'iinii t a ivwa I t Ii a cm nt ot 1 M mi -i o nmvni'cl icm S bn I I M-mi I t AI , , ., . . . .. . , she is under this strniige inevitable she must conquer.' "This is a strange compulsion, but conquest has brought her to it. No other religion for faith and courage as she faces it. She must conquer! Therefore she will conquer! She has tried her power on the individual, the family, the city, the nqtion, the continents, the races and when a civilization stands between her and universal dominion her genius will flush her channels of power with the spirit of conquest.' "We believe that Christianity will prevail as the only and final religion because she stands for three funda mental doctrines which are the high est expression of the modern mind.

PRINTERS AS MIND READERS How the Typo Translated the Mas terful Poem of the Editor's Visitor. An editor was sitting in his office one day, when a man entered whose brow was clothed with thunder. "Are you the editor?" he asked. "Yes." "Read that, then," he said, thrust ing at the editor an envelope with an inscription on it. "B " said the editor, trying to spell it. "That's not a 'B,' it's an 'S'," said the loan. " 'S?' Oh, yes, I see. Well, it looks like 'Sal for Dinner,' or 'Souls for Sinner: said the editor. No, sir," replied the man; "r.oth ing of the sort.

DEPLORES THE
E Iff OFFICIALS PRESIDENT OF PRISON CONGRESS SAYS FIRST IMPRISONMENT CAREERS OF CRIME. Attorney General Declares Modern Legislation Tends to Convince Law Violators. Washington, Oct. 4. With dele gates present from thirty-nine foreign countries, the International Pri son Congress assembeld here with much form and ceremony. Attorney General Wickersham officially welcome the visitors to the United States on behalf of the, President, and briefly ad dressed them on the progess toward the prevention of crime made in this country since the last congress in Budapest in 1905, Jiieki de Belley of Budapest, former president of the congress, responded in French, paving a glow. ing tribute to George WasV.u-ton and the American people in general, and thanking the Americans for the splendid reception thev had accord ed the foreign delegates since their ai rival on these shores. Deplores Police Energy. Complaint that the police often were too hasty about putting per sons into jail was voiced by Charles It Henderson professor of soeilolcgv at the University of Chicago, during his opening address as president of the congress. The keeping of first offenders in jail even one night when it might have been avoided often accomplish es irreparable moral injur-, explained Prof. Henderson . with emphasis. "I am afraid many persons have been started on careers of crime by being subjected need lessly to the humiliation of tenijorarv :r.earrccration in city prison." Expressing the opinion that a change had occurred in the attidute of civilized communites toward the subject of the prevention of crime, the attorney general in his address leclared that modern legislation sought not simply to deter by mak. mg an example of offenders, but by convincing the offender of the wisdom of obeying the law and by so doing to restore him to a useful status in society. Penal Laws Are Clarifield. The adoption by Congress in March, 1909, of a revised code of penal laws, codified and clarified the legislation defining and prescribing punishment for crime against the United States .government, and mark an important sen in the d reel ion of reducing or.r law o $.;! certain ty that the legal presumption thai every citizen, knov.ns the law mav be something other than a pitfal tor the unwary," said Mr. Wiekersham.
