Will that fifteen-cent Increase that Rockefeller has given the laborers on his estate, necessitate an increase in the price of oil?
A proposed new beatitude: Blessed are they that teach the dignity of labor, for they shall regenerate the earth.
A healthful hunger for a great idea
through the persistent efforts of a powerful lobby organized apparently to rivet the chains of intolerable servitude upon the limbs of honest labor. "If all members of the legislature were free from the insidious influences of this corrupt coterie of unscrupulous agents", there would be no need for a legislative board, for the
rule of enlightened conscience would
be the unerring guide to legislation.
But so long as these corrupt manipu
lators of legislative action are permit
ted to infest the seat of legislative
government, it behooves organized la
bor to place faithful sentinels on
guard to check bad legislation and
promote what is good."
Railroad Commission Elective.
One strong recommendation made
is that the members of the railroad
commission be elected along with oth
er state officers. Under the act that
created the commission, it is provided that the commissioners shall be ap
pointed by the governor. In classify
ing the members of the assembly, the
board-says:
'The board takes this opportunity
of expressing to the following sena
tors and representatives its high appreciation of their untiring efforts" of
assisting us in the enactment of laws
that are of vital Importance to every
railroad man in thi3 state and we
trust that whenever the opportunity
prevails the members of the various railroad organizations will stand
shoulder to shoulder in supporting men who have been so loyal to our
cause.

Elliott on Black List. The following senators and repre
sentatives were bitterly opposed to
all labor measures and frequently took the floor in the interests of the corpor
ations. Many of our bills were held
up by G. A. Elliott, of South Bend, chairman of the railroad committee ot the house and by the able assistance of J. Monroe Fitch, R. N. Elliott of Wayne and Fayette, Gus Condo, C. B. Coble, Oliver Carmichael, G. J. Greiger, C. C. Kelly. Victor Oberting. Wal
ter S. Ratliff and the baby representa
tive, Otto G. Geiss, was able to smother many bills that were of great im
portance to the working men and wo
men of this state.
In the senate Messrs Stevenson, Springer, Parks, of Plymouth, Kittinger, Beardsley, Crumpacker, Roomier
and Moore of Fayette, tried very hard to strike out the enacting clause or tack some amendment to our bills,
which would virtually have meant
their death.
"In commenting on the above named
senators and representatives who op
posed our measures, we would say to
the laboring men of this state that it would be good judgment on their part to indefinitely postpone the political careers of these men should they ever again attempt to come up for office."
WAS WELL KNOWN FRIEND.
A telegram from Los Angeles, Cal., announces the death from heart trou
ble of the Rev. Amos Sanders, at the home of a friend, while saying grace at the breakfast table. He is survived by one son. Harold, a physician in Brooklyn, New York. The Rev. Mr.

There has been a general lack of interest taken by members of Richmond lodge of Elks in the minstrel show that was to have been given April l!Xh and 20th, for the benefit of the Y. M. C. A. fund and it has been practically decided not to give the show. When the lodge first decided to give the show an effort was made to secure
a competent coach to put on the pro
duction. The committee was, however,
unable to get the man desired and the show was allowed to fall through, as those identified with it thought that
It would be useless to put the production on unless it was in charge of some
experienced director. Musical Score Unsatisfactory.
One or two rehearsals were held, but
the musical score was unsatisfactory. This with the disappointment in not securing a competent coach, made the lodge members discouraged and the show was allowed to "give up the ghost." It is now less than three weeks from the date set for the production of the show and even if a satisfactory Instructor was now secured the time remaining for rehearsing the production would be too short to warrant the attempt to assist the.Y. M. C. A. movement.
IS AFTER EASTER CANDY Secretary Hurty Orders It to Be Inspected.
HIGH COLORS POISONOUS.
Dr. J. X. Hurtj-, secretary of the state board of health has instructed the inspectors working in connection with the state laboratory of Hygiene to make a careful inspection of the candies sold curing Easter season. This action follows the discoveries made in Ohio, where State Food Commissioner R. W. Dunlap issued a statement Tuesday to the efTect that his chemists have been finding Easter candies and toys made of paraffin and shellac varnish, with inner fillligs oi cheap sweets. The candies are made attractive by high colors, which are found to be coal tar dyes, matter that has often caused death. The Ohio commissioner has ordered that all such candies be taken off the market. Dealers who refuse to do so are to be prosecuted. But little of importance has been accomplished by the Indiana inspectors thus far, as they have been putting In the time learning their dut'os and formulating plans for work.
WILL CHANGE LOCATION. Cambridge City Casket Company to Make Improvements.

PLANS ARE NOT KNOWN. Believed However That Cedar Springs Will Have Good Season.
New Paris, O., March 2S. Contrary
to frequent announcements of the
dates and plans for the opening of
Cedar Springs the public is still uninformed of the company's intentions
in the matter though, those close to the confidence of the authorities have every reason to believe that the season will see a profitable business con
ducted there.
Leslie Allender, a Rush , county
farmer, has Invented quite a useful
farm implement, one that is destined
to come into universal use. It is a corn husker, which when driven through the field, gathers up the down corn, separates the stalks, shucks and ears, and puts the ears in
the wagon. A very useful machine this is. Mr. Allender has filed his application for a patent, and he is also negotiating with manufacturers to make the husker.
PHYSICIAN'S STATEMENT.
Indianapolis, March 2S. Governor Hanly is critically ill at his home on North Alabama street. He is suffering from the effects of an acute attack of gastritis, which came upon him last week while he was spending his vacation in Pennsylvania. Dr. Goar spent some time with Gov. Hanly today and after returning from the governor's bed side the physician said : "The governor is a pretty sick man, but I do not think his condition is dangerous. He has taken little nour
ishment today, but has no fever. His stomach is terribly inflamed as the result of this attack of gastritis and It
will be several days before he can take much nourishment.
New Paris, O., March 28. For years there has been a general feeling in this community that the railroad ought to give New Paris a better and up-to-date station and grounds. Especially within the past few years since the great civic awakening here and the building of miles of improved sidewalks and the making of many other Improvements, this sentiment has steadily gained strength. The fact that within the past six or seven years the business of the road at this point has trebled, with a good prospect that it will again double during the coming year, has still further intensified it and it culminated Monday afternoon in a meeting of a number of representative business men at which itwas decided to make a formal request of the company on behalf
of the town and its business Interests
for the desired improvements.
A combination of circumstances
needless to detail at this time seems to make this an auspicious time to start
the organized movement and a committee was appointed consisting of C.
W. Bloom, Arch R. Raney and C. C. Hawley, to canvass the situation and prepare a memorial to the officials of the road and report at a meeting to be held Friday night at 7 o'clock at the township house, when a permanent organization will be effected and further steps taken. The village council will probably be asked to lend its aid in the matter and the subject will be presented in aa strong a light as possible in an effort to impress the railroad authorities with a sense of Its importance.

Greenfield, Ind., March 28. A westbound limited car on the Indianapolis & Eastern traction line struck a cow near Philadelphia, four miles west of here, Wednesday afternoon and was thrown from the track. The car turned over on its side and Jesse Slifer, the motorman, was thrown through the front window onto the track, three of his ribs being broken and one leg broken in two places. The air brakes had been set as the
car approached the animal, and fortu
nately it was not going at a high rate of speed when it overturned. Beyond
a shaking up. no one was seriously injured, although there were thirteen passengers on the car.

Pat Conroy Is Again in Charge of the Old "Goat" and Is Well Satisfied. The new monster switch engine, which has been used in the uptown yards of the Pennsylvania for a few
days has been transferred to the east end yards. The engine was so large that it could not handily take the sharp turns on the switches of the various local manufacturing companies. The engine was badly needed in the east end yards as it Is of such power that it can easily handle long strings of cars with much speed. Engineer Pat Conroy has been placed on the old "goat" engine, which has seen service for such a long time, and is contented, as he says the new engine was too stiff in the Joints." BOOKS NOT HEARD FROM. As yet the local Pennsylvania ticket office has received no notice of the fact that the one thousand mile twocent book, good for the bearer or party, will be issued in the near future. The . promise of some of the higher Pennsylvania officials to the members of the state legislature seems to be about the closest the books will ever reach Richmond. The legisrative committee having charge of the two-cent biH was promised by "Pennsy" officials, that if it would attach the onehalf cent extra rate clause to the original two-cent measure, the railroad would Issue the one thousand mile 20 books in Indiana. It is thought by some that the road will take no step in regard to the books, until the two-cent rate goes into effect. A liberal sale in Richmond is predicted. BOOKS ARE A NUISANCE. Traveling men holding the present one thousand mile interchangeable I
mileage books, say they are a nul
sance in one way. After the two-cent
rate law goes into effect they will be
done away with in the middle-western
states, which have passed two-cent
rate laws. The change will be wel
comed by the traveling men. READY FOR THE GOVERNOR.
The two-cent passenger rate bill, which has been pending before 1 the
legislature of Pennsylvania has passed the senate and is now ready for the signature of the governor. This measure has been watched with eager interest by railroad officials as that state has the greatest railroad mileage of any In the union and is of
greater importance. MAY FIGHT INCREASE. It Is understood that the shippers' organizations are bringing such heavy pressure to bear upon the in
terstate commerce" commission, that that organization will fight the increase in freight rates recently authorized by many of the leading railroad companies.
cal railroad man at the Pennsylvania station, it is highly probable that the Pennsylvania will soon begin the us of crushed stone along its lines wherever feasible. According to hi statement the sand will be washed from the gravel and the small stones mixed with crushed stone. The com. bined force will tend to make one of the best roadbed ballasts known. Just how soon work of this nature will start is not known, although the road is now experimenting with the use ol crushed stone in the east.

WILL INCREASE ASSESSMENTS. The Nebraska legislature has passed a bill for taxation of railroad properties in cities and towns after a six years' fight- It is said that the bill will increase the annual assessments of the railroads in that state at least $500,000.

The park at the local Pennsylvania station has been given a thorough cleaning and presents a most pleasing sight. President Dickinson of the Frisco system, says the only way In which ta solve the present railroad problem i for the railroads and the Interstate Commerce Commission to come ta some definite agreement Under the existing labor laws of tha country the railroads cannot go to Europe to secure enough men to reconstruct old, and build new lines, and therefore such work 'is practically at a standstill at present. Pennsylvania officials arc still In n quandry over the recent ruling of the Interstate Commerco Commission requiring the filing of double tariffs. It is said that to come up to all the requirements laid down by the commission is well nigh impossible. Rates for the Jamestown exposition are expected at the local Pennsylvania station soon. Literature has been received advertising the event but nc rates have been received. A meeting of the two divisions of the Brotherhood of Railway trainmen will be held in Buffalo to ratify an agreement of co-operation between the two organisations. In case this in successful it is probable eastern men
will be drawn into a strike along with those trainmen west of Chicago. In case this is true local members of the brotherhood, will be affected. It is said the trainmen have been holding out that the whole country may be affected In case the strike is declared.
