SUNDAY, JUNE 24, 906.

BUINESS FIRST. Senator IJeverldge, with characteristic loyalty to the people, has deferred his trip abroad in order that he may bo on hand when the yure food bill comes up for final consideration. Senator IJeverldge was scheduled to deliver an address Jn Paris on July Fourth before the American Chamber of Commerce of the French metropolis and he was looking forward with great pleasure to the holiday abroad. Day before yesterday the Indiana senator, who rs rightfully termed the father of meat Inspection legislation, learned that thero was to be a strenuous effort to defeat the bill, which apparently had weathered the storm of opposition and was on its roud to -enactment. If ' the measure goes down to oblivion. Senator Bcvcrldge is to be there fighting for it to the last and for this reason ho cancelled his engagement in Paris. The Indiana senator in this instance as in all others in which he has figured, shows that he is a great believer in tho old maxim, "Uuslness first; pleasure ' afterward." His official life is in striking contrast with tome of the members of tho Senate who pack their togs and hie themselves tq summer palaces in the woods at the first posslblo moment, giving no heed to the legislation that may be pending unless it Is in the interest of somo gigantic corporation to which they owe t:ieir high official position.

ELOQUENT AND PRACTICAL. An editorial "sermon" in tho Indianapolis Star yesterday, which is both eloquent and practical, will bear repeating, especially on Sunday, a day for sermons. The Star says; 'No more eloquent sermon against gambling could be preached than the boss gambler who doesn't gamble or against intomperanco than the saloonkeeper, very common nowadays, who requires his bartenders to be total abstainers. Truly no one should know the dangers of gambling more fully than the man under whoso eyes clerks go wrong and business men wreck their fortunes. No one understands the evils of intemperance

so thoroughly as he who dally watches tho beauty, strength and self-respect of a generous, high-minded youth steal from his figure and no pace perceived. If such examples are lost upon the mind of youth,

what shall the most diligent iuculca tlon of precept avail?

are both aspirants for the position

which will not bo filled until next

cants equally as strong and the board is fortunate at least in one thing it can scarcely make an error in who

Mayor Zimmerman and other Richmond advocates of the abolition of the metropolitan police system, in vogue In Richmond and other Indiana cities, are Interested in the test case now pending. The brief for the State in the Ko komo metropolitan police law case appealed to the Supreme Court from the Howard Circuit Court, has been filed by the Attorney-General and in it the State insists that the metropolitan police law of the State s constitutional. Michael Donohue was a metropolitan police captain at Kokomo. which had a police board that was appointed by the Governor under the metropolitan law. This law provides that in cities with a population of from 10,000 to 35,000 the police department shall be under the conrrol of a board of commissioners appointed by the Governor and that the Governor shall also fix the compensation of such board members. When the cities and towns law of 1905 was passed, it provided that cit?es which attain that population thereafter should have the right to elect whether they should have a metropolitan police board appointed by the Governor, or whether they should vest in the mayor the power to appoint a board. Say Law Is Unconstitutional. The city of Kokomo went Into court with the plea that the metropolitan police law had been repealed and also that the metropolitan police law was unconstitutional, because it conferred power on the Governor to perform

legislative acts in fixing the salaries

of the members of tho police boards which he had appointed. The con

stitution of the' State divides the State government into three parts, executive, legislative and judicial, and

the powers of any one of these de

partments can not be assumed by an

other or delegateed by one to another.

It was on this point that the city

relied, principally. The lower court decided In favor of Donohue, and the city appeealed the case to the Su

preme Court.

Publishers' Press Chicago, June 23. A Washington special to the Tribute says: At last Uncle Sam is to lock arms with "the system" in a fight to a finish. President Roosevelt finally has decided to begin a series of prosecutions against the Standard Oil company. There will be criminal proceedings in a number of different judicial districts. The attorney general has issued orders to the different district attorneys and already has appointed special counsel for the government to continue the investigation, one of whom is District Attorney Morrison of Chicago, who will resign his present position almost at once to take up his wider field of labor. The Standard Oil Company will be prosecuted as a corporation for violation of the Elkins law forbidding rebates, or the giving or receiving of discriminating rates. The method of prosecution adopted successfully at Kansas City before Judge Smith McPherson, which resulted in the conviction of the packing houses, is to be followed to a certain extent In the fight against the Standard Oil. Garfield Report the Basis. The investigation made by Commissioner Garfield have been taken as a basis for the judicial inquiry set on foot by Attorney General Moody today, but the most important evidence now in possession of the government is that which was developed openly and aboveboard, and without any promise of Immunity, through the hearings before the interstate commerce commission, where the fact of giving and receiving of rebates was clearly established. The new law modifying the old statute on the subject of immunity has been passed by congress and now goes into effect, so the Standard Oil company will not be able to wash itself in the immunity bath, which proved so efficacious in the case of the Chicago packers.

The natural gas situation in Rich

mond next winter will be about the same as last, which means that there

will be an adequate supply for the

purposes now in vogue.

The Richmond Natural Gas Com

pany will have several new wells to its chain in the Henry county field and will do everything possible to keep the supply up to the standard. There was more coal burned in Rich

mond last winter than for twenty

years, and dealers say that the con

sumption next winter will be even

greater at least the sales will be

heavier, for many tons of coal burned last winter were "left over" from

years previous or were in the bins

for emergency. Yhile Richmond is to have plenty of gas for cooking purposes, New Castle probably will not get enough to fry an egg on both sides, and the citizens there have ust awakened to the fact. Howl from New Castle. The New Castle Courier which every few weeks sits on its hind legs and howls about the gas condition there, contained the following yesterday: "It is with grave alarm that those who know the conditions best that the gas situation is viewed at this particular season. Every one is well acquainted with the efforts made by both companies to secure gas for New Castle and the failures which resulted. The Richmond Gas company occupies the field which rightfully belongs to New Castle and Henry county, and the Richmond people are deriving the benefits of an almost unlimited supply of gas fuel, which is forced through the mains by powerful - pumps. Everyone in New Castle

appreciates the fact that this city

will be "up against it" again next winter. In fact the condition will be

worse and the prospects are not of

that rosy hued variety." "There was a time wnen the Rich

mond Gas company offered New Cas

tle gas and plenty of it, but the deal

fell through and every one regretted

it."
