DRIVING OUT THE MONEY LENDERS. For years the American temple of finance has been infested with a band of money lenders literally speaking as bad if not worse than the monay lenders who infested tho temple at Jerusalem, and whom Christ drove therefrom. Not only- have these modern money lenders cast their Iniquitous light over our temple of finance Jut they have even invaded the teruj)le of the church and so intimidated its ministers in many cases, that they
lare not exercise their privileges as free born Americans and ministers of
Ihe word of God, and rise in their pulJdt3 and denounce these sleek demons of high finance and the rotten, graftridden structures upon which they fctand. There have been some notable exceptions to this rule, of course, but most of these have paid the penalty for denouncing Instead of kowtowing to predatory wealth, even as Christ lid. Not two months ago . a young 3ninister in Des Moines, Iowa, was forced to resign from his church because be had dared take the stand for leal righteousness and would no longer bow down, before the will of those members of his congregation . who
of the country from the hands of the frenzied financiers, was removed by
the hand of an assassin, and Vice President Iloosevelt assumed tht
reins of government. Mr. Roosevelt had been made vice-president originally, as the easiest manner in which to
"shelve" him, and keep him out of the higher office pf president, for the
money sharks of "Wall street knew before the people did, that Theodore

our country. Their capital is the little district in New York city around Mall street, their army and their Strength are the legions of dollars
they have filched from the American jeopIe. For years by their bribing contributions , misnamed philanthropiesthey have held the churches and colleges subservient to their will, gaining In this manner valuable allies, for those churches and colleges that did not openly laud them and their gifts, at least remained discretly silent as to their methods of obtaining the money vvhereVithv they made their contributions. And as long as they had silence they knew the people would never, be aroused from their ignorance as to the real state of affairs. The belief that silence is golden was find is one of the greatest tenets cf their religion of dollars. They silenced the press through the belief they had spread broadcast among the people of party regularity. And by thus silencing the press they were able to build up- a political machine in
every state and county thereof, in the Union, that sent to public office only euch men as bad been tried and not
found wanting in faithfulness to the;
frenzied financiers, and who. upon ii-suming office would never for on-3 minute forget that silence, as far cs cautioning the people and arousing them from their Ignorance, was golden. And to prove that this kind of silence was golden these officers were permitted to have a small share in the golden spoils that resulted therefrom. The country, however, was too vast and the people too progressive to remain forever in Ignorance of the system, that was reducing their free republic to a monied oligarchy. Little by little the people grasped what was going on and at various times made ineffective efforts to rid themselves of the money monsters. But they always failed because they lacked .a leader who would not sell them ut. Then fate intervened and President MeKInley, a good man, but one who had not fathomed the real peril
served as president, President Roosevelt gained the confidence of the people of this country, as is clearly proven by the ease with which he was reelected three years ago with such an overwhelming plurality, despite the efforts of Wall street's monied oligarchy to prevent his re-election. The people believe and rightly that President Roosevelt has been sent by providence to help rid them of their traitorous fellow - citizens, who by the power of dollars were reducing them to a state of absolute slavery. lie has proved a true leader. ' He has not sold out to the highest bidder, but has remained steadfast to the people who elected him. And his example has had a salutary effect upon the whole country'. It has aroused some from their apathy and others from their blind worship of
mere dollars. It has made practic
ally everyone put a higher meaning
to the word "success." His work is by no means completed and were he to be permitted by the people of this country to live up .to his determina
tion as announced three years ago and repeated many times since, of not accepting another nomination for the presidency, all the good he has accomplished so far might be sacrificed in no time and the country returned to the same state of affairs that existed prior to his becoming president. The risk is far too great for the American people to assume. They have too much at stake. They know they can trust President Roosevelt and they know that in making him president again they will have a true friend in the white house, and not a smooth-faced hypocrite, who will seil them out at the first opportunity. If
the people demand that President Roosevelt serve another term he cannot avoid it, nor would he fall in their estimation for accepting it after his declarations that he would not. The people Jiave placed him where he is
today, and for that one reason alone, they have the right to demand that he
remain there another term.
ONE OF THE SEASON'S 3 BESTJTTBACTIONS "The Time, the Place and the Girl," Splendid.
HAD SPARKLING LINES.
One of the three best attractions of the local theatrical season. That is the verdict on "The Time, the Place and the Girl," which entertained a packed house at the Gennett Thursday night. Some might call the show the event of the season, but others would not. It is safe to say, however, that regular theater goers would let "The Time, The Place and the Girl" fall into the best three class. The
other two the theatergoer may
choose for himself. He may take "The Law and the Man," "Tho Flower Girl," "Around the Clock," May Ir
win, but his judgment is surely at fault if he does not make Arthur Dea-
gan and his following of mirth mak
ers a part of his trio.
The piece was well 'advertised a
corned', with music, and to this might i
have been added with a strong cast, pretty girls, good voices, splendid costumes. It was fortunate that a large and appreciative audience saw the play.
One of the most pleasing features
to "The Time the Place, etc., is its
sparkling lines. " Many of them
smacked of the Bowery, it is true, but in all they were delightful. Delightful for the reason that they were lively and of the kind that causes one to laugh, think a little while and then laugh again. Another essential which the show had was people to carry the lines. There was not a leading role which appeared to be in weak hands. There were some, of course, who were more pleasing than others, namely Arthur Deagon, the hard working and comical comedian, Violet McMillen, "The Girl," and Lucia Moore, the head nurse, but all were good and could sing.

NEW CARNATIONS BY.
RICHMOND FLORISTS
They Were Shown at the State
Floral Exhibit.
Indianapolis, April 12. It has come
to light that Robert A. Brown, clerk
of the supreme court from 1S9S to 1906
on Februray 26, this year, paid over to
Ed V. Fitzpatriek, his successor, $6,
611.02, which amount represented fees that he had collected during his term
of office. The last legislature passed a law
which required clerks of the supreme
court to turn Into the office all sheriff and transcript fees "which had been
collected and retained" by such offi
cials during their terms of office.
Rrown's action in turning over the
$0,641.02 to Fitzpatriek came on the same day that Governor Hanly signed the Grieger bill, which, among other
things empowered the attorney gener
al to proceed by appropriate action to
enforce the collection of sheriff and
transcript fees which former clerks of
the supreme court had collected but had failed to distribute among "the
parties entitled thereto."
Brown Is the only ex-clerk of the
supreme court who has turned back into the office, fees that he collected while he was in office. Clerk Fitzpatriek some time ago notified by letter three other ex-clerks, explaining the
new law to them and informing them
as to the amount they are alleged to
owe the office.
Four Ex-Officials Affsted. According to the figures that have
been compiled at the office of the clerk
of the Supreme Court Simon P. Sheer-
in, deceased, formerly of Logansport, retained fees to the amount of $3,676.19; William T. Noble, formerly of Richmond, but now in Los Angeles, Cal.. $2,516.61; Andrew M. Sweeney,
of this city, $4,755.31, and Alexander Hess of Wabash. $4,267.93.
Under the Grieger law, which Is
now on the statute books, these amounts must be paid into the office
of the clerk of the supreme court before April 27. If they are not paid by that time Attorney General Bing
ham will then be required by law to
bring proceedings to collect the amounts.
Information that came out Is to the
effect that suits would likely be necessary to force collections in the cases of at least two of the former clerks.;
It was not given out which two It
would be. The former clerks have
more than two weeks in which to act and until the expiration of that time
no proceedings can be instituted.
Simon P. Sheerin has been dead for
several years. His heirs will be call
ed upon to pay over the $3,676.19 which it is said that he retained in
fees while he was in office.

ANNUAL MEETING IN MAY.
E. G.HILL HAS ANEW ROSE.
The annual spring ! exhibit of the State Florists association of Indiana, was held yesterday in. the state house. lu the exhibit were several new varieties of carnations, produced by exhibitors after years of effort. The 3. K. & B. Floral company of Richmond had two varieties of new carnations on exhibition for the first time. One was a white carnation which had been named "purity,' and which was pro
duced after three years of careful crossing and fertilization. The flower is distinsuishel because of its size
and long, hardy stem. The same
firm had another new creation on exhibition called "The Superior."" con
sidered an improvement over "pinks' heretofore exhibited, because of the
richness of its color, its extreme size, some of the blooms being as large ns tea enps. The stem. too. is much longer than ia other varieties.
The E. G. Hill company of Richmond had on exhibition a large bunch of "Fran Karl Dmschkii white roses, imported from Germany. The officers of the association in

You Feel Strong After a breakfast of Grape-Nuts FOOD It is easy of digestion and contains the material from wheat and barley which makes men strong. "There's a Reason"
A meeting of the Central Passen
ger Association will be held in Chicago, April 30 to decide just what the railroads will do in regard to their through trains doing an interstate
business east of Chicago and east of
St. Louis. The railroad attorneys are up in the air, figuratively speaking.
in regard to the matter. The rail
roads are between two fires, the state
awa and the Interstate Commerce
Commission. Although the majority
of the legislatures have passed twocent laws in the states through which the through trains run, the railroads figure that they cannot compell them to reduce their rates on interstate
business, but are fearing the action of
he Interstate Commerce commission
in regard to the matter. The railroads including the Pennsylvania vill post
pone the reduction of rates until the
last possible moment.
G. R. & I. TIME TABLES. The new time cards for the G. R.
& I. have arrived at the local station
but unlike many of the other spring time tables, show no change in the running schedule. The Northland limited will necessitate a change when the new time cards are issued in
June. WITHDRAWING HAMMOCKS. Minature hammocks are being withdrawn from the lower berths in the Pullman cars now running through Richmond on the Pennsylvania, but the same can be had on application to
the porter. It is claimed that as a rule passengers do not need them. The hammocks in the upper berths will stay. WILL SAVE LAUNDRY BILL. No longer will the white shirtwaists and dresses of young women passengers on the Pennsylvania railroad at the local station, be soiled by tho unclean hands of well meaning trainmen. An order has been issued by the Pennsylvania officials, directing that hereafter conductors and brakemen shall refrain from being gallant in aiding the fair sex to board and leave trains. Complaints of young women whose apparel has been soiled by overanxious trainmen led to the issuance of the order. Elderly ladies are also not to be assisted for the same reason, unless they request It. This edict following the recent one tabooing the throwing of rice and old shoes by members of wedding parties have caused the railroad employes to wonder what will be the next innovation.
NEW G. R. . I. DEPOT. The new G. R. & I. depot at Winchester is well on the road to completion and will be one of the finest equipped stations on the road. According to reports in this city, there is one objection to the new depot and that is its squatiness. WILL GO TO CHICAGO. A large number of people are contemplating taking advantage of the C. C. & Ls. new through service next Saturday night and go to Chicago. The new service Is proving very popular all along he line and the Pullman's are well filled when they reach Chicago. The only draw back to the new schedule Is the lack of trains running through Richmond during the day.
G. R. &. I. ANNUAL MEETING. At the annual mct'ting or the board of directors of the Grand Rapids and Indiana Railway company in Pittsburg. Joseph Wood of that city was elected to take the position of president of the road, succeeding President McCrea now of the Pennsylvania. The other officers of the roaducceed themselves and are W. R.' Khelley. vice-president and treasurer, J. H. P. Hughart, vice-president and general manager, R. R. Metheany, secretary and auditor, all of Grand Rapids; James II. Campbell, acting general counsel, W.
