W. J. BRYAN UNCONSCIOUS SOCIALIST.
Mr. Bryan has found it advisable to j
make another "authoritative" statement of his views about railroad-rate regulation and government ownerfli! p. To summarize it briefly, Mr. Bryan favors an experiment with government regulation under the most favorable conditions, rates to be based on the appraised value of the property tmd future stock-watering to be proJ.ibited. "When, however, as Mr.
Bryan believes will prove true, control has been demonstrated to be ineffectual, then it wili be necessary to po to Feaeral government ownoiship of trunk lines." His reasons for believing that such control must fail are that, "as in the rast so in the future, private ownership of railroads will cause a constant corrupting of the body politic. He holds that even under rigid control the incentive for the private owner and manager to befoul the political system will remain, and that such befouling will continue to a greater or lesser degree, as in the past, Tendering private ownership incompatible with the interests of the masses." Mr. Bryan is an unconscious Socialist. If political corruption by railroad
managers necessitates government ownership of railroads, then such corruption by other industrial managers necessitates government ownership of their property as well. The Steel Trust, the Tobacco Trust, the Oil Trust, the Taper Trust, the Coal Trust, the Ice Trust and scores of other trusts have incentives "to befoul the political system" just as the railroads have. So have the saloon
keeper, the cadet, the dive-keeper, the ! gambler and the professional burglar, j
If the railroads must be taken over by the Government because their managers "befoul the political system," so must all other industries and occupations be taken over by the government where the managers, proprietors . and operators find it profitable to buy immunity from prosecution and to purchase the privilege of violating the law. If the railroad man debauches politics, society can send him to jail. It has sent plenty. of other people to jail for the same offense. If the railroad man gives rebates, society can send him to jail. If he fails to perform his duties as a common carrier honestly, faithfully and without discrimination, society can punish him precisely as it punishes other people for violating the law. The old-fashioned American plan of defining offenses against society and imposing penalties upon offenders is" capable of righting every wrong that violence 6r cunning can invent. Xew York World.
NEW SERIAL
Beginning on Thursday the Palladium and Sun-Telegram will publish "The "Rogue's March" by E. W. Hornung, author of "Raffles, the Amateur Cracksman," "Stingaree," etc. The story is an interesting one bringing to the reader's mind constantly the intensity of realism found in Victor Hugo and Dickens' works. It-is well illustrated, the drawings being by Parker. There is little need to enlarge on a story by Hornung other than to say that his latest effort is up to, if not above the standard of his other books. The first installment THURSDAY

that the saloon will be reopened, backed by the Muncie Brewery Company.

All Poisons Can Be Driven Out of the System Now. Right now is the best season of the year to get rid of the blood, liver and kidney affections that have been troubling you. You need building up now in order to stand the strain of the hot weather of summer. Let Rheumatism, Sciatica, Gout. Catarrh, Indigestion or Constipation run through these months and they become chronic and hang on for years. A regular course of RHEUMACIDE taken at the present time will thoroughly cleanse the blood, tone up the stomach, set the liver and kidneys to doing their normal work again, and will build up the entire system. While it is the most wonderful blood purifier in the world, yet RHEUMACIDE is a purely vegetable preparation that operates through entirely natural methods. Jt has been tested on the delicate stomach of a baby without the slightest harm. Better get a bottle today and start to get well. RiILUMACIDE has cured hundreds of stubborn cases after all other remedies, noted physicians and even the great Johns Hopkins Hospital have failed. RHEUMACIDE has cured thousands of cases and we believe it will cure you. Your druggist sells it. RHEUM ACIDE "'gets at the joints from the inside" and "makes you well all over."

Sheriff Meredith returned Sunday from Jeffersonville where ha took George Lipscombe and William Woolford, two young crooks sentenced to the reformatory last week. Both men seemed to be indifferent to their fate. Before leaving they traded all the
good clothing they had to their fellow prisoners in tho county jail as they were informed that the clothes they wore would be burned as soon as they were turned over to the prison officials. The two men looked like tramps on the train enroute to Jeffersonville. Sheriff Meredith thinks that young Woolford has either served time or is a deserter from the navy. At the jail he showed the prisouers several naval jackets which he carried about with him.

EXCURSION ON PENNSY.
FIRST OF THE SEASON WILL BE RUN NEXT SUNDAY. Probable That Patronage Will be Large on Account of National League Game. Samuel Moody, general passenger agent of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, has at last broken the silence in regard to the popular excursion business in this state, and has announced the first excursion of the season between Richmond and Cincinnati, which will be run next Sunday. Following on the footsteps of the announcement made some time ago that no popular excursions would be run in Indiana or from Indiana to interstate points, the announcement
comes as somewhat of a surprise to
several local railroad men. No ex
cursions between Indiana points on
the Pennsylvania have yet been announced. The fare from Richmond to Cincinnati next Sunday will be $1.25
for the round trip. The train will
leave Richmond at 7:00 o'clock and
leave Cincinnati at 7:03 in the even ing. It promises to be largely patro
nized. Cincinnati will meet Pittsburg
on that day in the National league. j WORD RATE NOT USED.
Local Pennsylvania ticket agents
have relegated the word rate to the bottommost drawers of their desks, in compliance with the recent order of the officials of the Pennsylvania stating that the word rate should be dropped in conversations regarding tickets. It is an unusual thing to
hear the ticket agents use the word rate when they speak of the charges
for tickets to different points.
STAND FOR COLORED MAN
' Washington, April 23 Clerks in the office of the auditor of the Navy department, new chief of which is Robert Tyler, colored, won't resign because of the fact that a negro is to be placed over them, nor will they strike.

MURRAY WILL CLOSE : TO AWAIT DECIS ON Local Broker Does Not Desire To Take Chance.
TEST CASE IN PROSPECT.
Omar Murray will discontinue his brokerage business in this city next Saturday indefinitely and will not resume operations until a test case is made in Indiana and a decision rendered. Mr. Murray will not close through any effort brought to bear against him in Richmond but to be on the safe side of the question. Mr. Murray contends that he is conducting a brokerage business and not a bucket shop. As yet no arrests have been made in Indianapolis for conducting a brokerage business, but it Is highly probable that such will be the case within the next few days as the brokers wish to get a test case, that will tully decide the merits of the law. Should the decision be favorable to the brokers, Mr. Murray may reopen his offices. Bucket-shop owners over the state will not contest the law as they readily see that they could not get a favor
able decision and as the result many
of them have closed.

articles which the students like to read. The three leading articles in the April number are a translation from Homer's Iliad by Lina Wood, 'OS; "The English Lake Country." by
