ONE CENT AT ALL PLACES OF SALE. SUNDAY, JULY 8, 1906. A WORTHY MEASURE. The bill drafted by Indianapolis lawyers, which provides that public depositories be designated for State, County, Township and municipal funds and which also provides that Interest on public funds go to public treasuries, is a worthy measure and Is one that . long has been needed in Indiana. There seems to be no question that the next General Assembly . will heed the call of the people In this respect and will enact a law which shall contain all of the good features mbadled In the bill just drafted. IN A PRETTY MUSS. The Democratic State organization Is In a pretty muss. With Thomas Taggart, the king pin of the Hoosier Democracy, under a, cloud because of the raid of the gambling casino at his French Lick Hotel, there Is a pronounced sentiment among the better classes of his party to oust him from leadership. John Kern, Taggart's attorney, and twice Democratic candidate for governor, lines up with Thomas and not only' denies that the charges against his friend are untrue but he defies the opposition and says that Tom shall not give up his hold on the political reins. This is about as expected. Depend always upon the Democratic party to make a spectacle of ltsolf just at a time when harmony Is needed. The party has had no chanco to win In Indiana this year with tho utmost harmony prevailing, but with the present bad mess on Its hands, It is even further from victory than before. USE OF OIL ON STREETS. Tho Board of Public Works is giving careful and thoughtful consideration to the use of crude oil on macadam streets as a substitute for siirlnkl- ' lng and also js a method for hardening tho'surfaco and Increasng tho life of tho streets. Crude oil of the sort that Is used , on street surfaces contains a heavy percentage of asphalt and as the oil evaporates, a coating ef asphalt Is deposited. In time this coating becomes permanent. Dust will not accumulate. The Board contemplates the testing of the method and next week will go to Cincinnati to Inspect streets that have been treated with crude oil. Sixth District Editorials The Democratic state platform says: "Since 1894 tho Republican party has been In absoluto control of the executive and legislative branches of our state government." It might have continued very truthfully with the further statement that the records show that in that time the state debt has been reduced from over seven and one-half millions to less than one millon dollars, and that today the per capita cost for caring for the Inmates of the several state institutions is considerably less than when the Republican party was then given charge of affairs by the people of th state. Shelbyvllle Republican. Hay Crop Is Short. Keports frjm ,Jerferson township and elsewhere ladlc:ico a decided shortage in tho hay crop, something that will mean a decided loss to cattle raisers, rejulrli thorn to pay a hlxh price for feel.

The picture now on exhibition at the Starr Piano rooms is a reproduction of a celebrated painting Illustrating the parable of the "Wise and Foolish Virgins," original painting by Karl Von Piloty. Karl von Piloty was born in Munich, October 1, 1826 and died there July 21, 1S86. The first twenty years of his life were spent in study under his father and in copying works of noted masters, chiefly Rubens. After visiting Rome, Antwerp and Paris, he became so strongly Impressed with the sentiments of the French and Netherland schools that he turned to realism In art, to which he owes his success. At the age of thirty he became Professor of the Munich academy and when forty-eight was appointed Director. His work and influence contribute to make the academy of Munich one of the most influential art Institutes of the world. Among his many pupils aro such names as Makart and Munkacsy. Nearly all of his paintings are in the possession of the National gallerys of Europe. In this picture he has choosen for his subject the parable of the wise

and foolish virgins, St. Matthew 25th chapter and in the light of his artistic conception has clothed it with a living significance. While the parable serves the evangelist to emphasize the divine warning, "Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour," the artist has individualized the wise and foolish virgins, characterizing and imparting to each a psychological importance. It is human life with all its vibrations of hope, disappointment, joy and anguish that the master and teacher, has sofight to portray and underlying all is the precept that happiness and peace are the reward of wisdom and virture, anguish and remorse the penalty of wrong and impudence. The model for the central figure of the group was the Countess Bacohlnettl of Rome. The Countess Liechtenstein of Munich posed for the figure in the foreground to the right, who gazes with smiles and expectancy towards the expected bridegroom Fran Richard- Wagner, daughter of Abbe Liszt, was the model for the virgin just above the latter, and partly In shadow, while the maiden guarding her lamp from the wind with her veil Is the artists daughter.

UNIFORMITY OF SYSTEM

RECORDS OF THE ROADS TO BE KEPT IN WAY THAT AFFAIRS WILL BE PLAIN TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC. (B. W. A. Crawford.) , Washington, July 7. The Interstate Commerce Commission will meet here next week to make plans for the enforcement of the new rate law. At this meeting consideration will be given to the kind of bookkeeping that shall be done by the carriers. The new law authorised the commission to require the railroads of the country to adopt a uniform system of bookkeeping. Professor Adams, statistician of the commission, has been assigned to the work of originating a uniform system of bookkeeping. Ho announces that he will call in a large number of railroad accountants with a view of perfecting a system that will be satisfactory to all. The commission prepared a formal notice to railroads today that .the new law will go into effect August 29. It is expected that many complaints of discriminatory rates will be. filed as loon as the law becomes effective. No small part of the preliminary work of the commission will relate to the enforcement of the interstate commerce law against1 pipeline companies, express companies, private car lines and sleeping-car companies. It is up to the State Department to issue notice to Americans preparing to travel in Germany, that red clothing of any description is tabooed in the land of "der Kaiser," and that the wearing of it may lead to complications. In the light of latter day liberty this may have a mediaeval sound, but a case is just reported of a school boy, who was arrested because he refused to take off a red tie, which, after his trial, was confiscated. The whole affair was due to what roughly corresponds to our blue laws; that is a law passed In 1849 prohibiting tfie wearing of red clothes of any kind, even Including socks, since red, the republican color, was calculated to offend loyal subjects and incite a breach of the peace. "Washington, for the first time in more than a year, is today absolutely free from smallpox. This delightful state of affairs must not be taken to indicate that in the past the capital has been plague-ridden. Quite the contrary, for smallpox is almost unknown. But in the poorer quarters there are always two or three submerged cases, and it is to these that the health inspectors are pointing with such justifiable pride. fc The pride of Washington has received a severe bump through an article on Glasgow, by F. C. Howe, in the current issue of one of the large magazines. Washington has always rather prided herself on being the model city, but in the article in question, the inhabtants of Glasgow are pictured as asserting correctly that their city is the best in the world, and all because of municipal ownership of various public utilities! No wonder Washington is grieved! But though grieved, she is unwilling to yield the palm, for, although the article in question describes as an existing condition a state of affairs which has long been an ideal in American politics, it neglects the more important social side. Washington does not feel quite so badly when she remembers that according to figures compiled In out of a total population of 760,000.. there were the city of Glasgow, 91,200 persons living under the crowd ed condition of from three to twelve in one room, with 194,300 living from five to twelve in two rooms. Nearly two-fifths of the whole population living in such an indescribable and unhealthy compression this is the social development of the bugbear of municipal ownership. Washington has nothing like that. Indeed, this dangerous concentration of its population makes Glasgow seem like a walled town of the middle ages, the confining wall in this case being obe of poor transportation facilities and graded fares. Washington may have her graft, but she has not Glasgow's terrible social congestion, and remembering Mr. Dalrymple's report on the danger of copying Glasgow's policy in this country, she still holds up her head, although shorn of Congress, the President, and most of her foreign ambassadors at one fell swoop. WEST SIDER SARE ACTIVE Will Ask and Expect to be Granted a Fire Department Company Within the Next Year. West side citizens it is asserted, will soon formally petition council to establish a fire department company west of the Riveij. The claim is made that manufacturers are not sufficiently protected in that part of the ctty and that under such conditions there is no encouragement for new factories to locate there.The west side hose house matter has been pending in some shape or other for years, but now it will be pressed.
