And now comes the local commercial club with n resolution condemning tho Aldrich currency measure, showing that tho business men of Richmond are of the same mind with business mon the country over, they do not want makeshift currency measures. That has been our chief complaint agaiu6t the Aldrich measure. It is entirely a makeshift and admitted to be such by the republican leaders of both senate and house, who however, seek to justify their advocacy of the measure by declaring that the people are demanding action of some kind relative to the currency question and that the Aldrich bill should be passed in order that the republican party can go before the country at the next election with a currency measure to its credit. We do not agree with this way of looking at the question, believing that our currency system is too intricate and far too important to be settled off hand for campaign purposes. The senate has already passed the Aldrich bill and it Is now up to the house. In this case the business men of the country have to rely upon the good sense of the members of the lower house to lose sight of the party cry and act in the best Interests of the whole country by refusing to pass the Aldrich bill In any form. Speaker Cannon is credited with being very much in favor of the Aldrich measure, and it is stated he will use all his power to secure its passage through the house. It Is to be hoped, however, that party lines will not be drawn, so that enough republican members can be secured to defeat the bill. If this can not be done we hope the desired result will be attained by insurgents from the republican side of the house. No republican member need fear rebelling against a caucus that decides in favor of the bill, as the majority of his constituents will be right behind him in hia efforts to aid In defeating this pernicious measure. INMATES RECEIVED Indiana Women's Prison Is in Operation at the Present Time. IS MANAGED BY WOMEN. The fact that the Indiana Women's prison is now receiving inmates is not known generally to the residents of the state, asserts Amos Butler, secretary of the state board of charities. The new penal institution was thrown open in February and now has seventeen Inmates. These are from the various counties of the state and are of the class that heretofore have been sentenced to county jails. Their incarceration in an institution managed solely by women and in which they are employed at some helpful kind of work is proving & great forward step? Mr. Butler says: "The institution occupies the quarters racated last summer by the Indiana Girls' school. The expense of remodeling the wing and putting In a new light and power plant for the entire institution amounted to about $4O0i. There are accommodations fc i one hundred women in the new department and it is well fitted to give them employment and Instruction of a kind which will be helpful to them after they leave. An Att. The financial prospects of Washington Lafayette Johnson were decidedly clouded, but he still preserved a sanguine spirit, which his friends did not always appreciate.

"What eecu'ity can you gib me?" asked his friend without any enthusi asm. "Why, I gib you my note ob hand! and Mr. Johnson looked pained and amazed at such a question.

F POWERON CONGRESS Temperance Legislation One of Things Demanded Of Legislative Body. Is QUESTION IS FAR REACHING IT MAY BE MADE A NATIONAL ONE AND PRACTICALLY ALL DEPENDS ON THE ACTION OF CONGRESS THIS SESSION. Washington, April S. The temper ance question will not down in con gress. A week ago the liquor interests were, confident they had won their fight to prevent legislation oi any sort at this session inimical to their business. Today they see indications which load them to fear the temperance forces will get about all they ask for before tho session ends. It is ihe word from home" that is bringing about the change. l!oth senators and representatives are receiving letters from constituents saying that unless thev take their stand with the tem perance forces they will bo punished in the coming campaign. Members of the house of represen tatives who are candidates for re-election are particularly solicitous about the outlook. Without being told by their constituents they know something of the temperance wave that is sweeping over the country and they do not want to be caught on the wrong side. Senators who are up for re-elec tion have received warnings that members of state legislatures are to be chosen this year with special reference to the liquor traffic and that if they expect re-election they must take care not to stand with the unpopular side in this battle. A National Question. "The indications are that more public men will go up or down on the temperance question next fall than on any other one question that will enter into the campaign. It will not be surprising if the question becomes national in its aspect during the coming campaign. Whether it shall pass from a state to a national issuo depends on the action of congress at this session. The temperance forces, led by the anti saloon league, are ready to make it a national issue if that shall become ne cessary. The situation is this: The movement for stricter temperance laws is making headway everywhere. In some states it is taking the form of prohibition; in others It is for local option, high license or eliminating by remonstrance. The "dry" territory is being widened in scope month by month. The larger tho "dry" area becomes the more plainly stands out the fact that the states can not meet with a full measure of success so long as the federal government nullifies the work of the states. Under existing federal law no state can create, absolutely "dry" territory, because liquor may be shipped Into this territory from another state with impunity. It is also impossible to make a state or any part of a state "dry" as long as the federal government will issua a permit to a person to sell intoxicants in the territory which local government says shall be "dry." Different This Year. So it is that the temperance forces are asking that these two conditions be remedied. They do not expect to get both evils cured at this session of congress. They do insist that legislation shall be enacted at this session which will give a state some measure of control over Interstate shipments of liquor. WAS DIRTY POLITICS Blodgett Says That Decatur County Primary Election Was Rotten. VOTES WERE BOUGHT. uipgrunuen iactions nave arisen in the republican ranks of Decatur coun ty and the democrats stand a good chanco to elect their nominee, if thev select a man of good record in regard to the liquor question, according to Blodgett, of the Indianapolis News. Blodgett claims the republican primary of March o, was the dirtiest that has been held in Decatur county by any political party in many years, and that it was made so by the brewery influences. Charges of corruption are ad vanced and the price of votes is fixed ' at $o per. Of the twenty-two saloons in Greensburg, twelve are owned by breweries and all were active in their ; efforts to elect Jethro Meek, a man i who had been non-committal on the j liquor question, and is regarded by j the liquor interests as being "safe." i Blodgett asserts the nomination of Meek made certain the fact the breweries and saloons are just as active in politics as ever no matter how much they deny the fact. Qualified. "This." said the able manager, "is a difficult part to play. The character doesn't hare to speak a word during the performance, and yet he Is on the stage the ereater part of the time. Do you think you can do it?" "I should think I can." exclaimed the actor. "I'm well qualified for the part I've been married for twenty years and haven't had a chance to say a word yet."

Already there is a sentiment in favor of John 1. Moorman of Knox, the Thirteenth district chairman. Ii is suggested that unless Mr. Moorman is agreed upon there wlll likely be a many-sided contest for the place, with probably a candidate or two from every county in the district. It is pointed out that Mr. Moorman, who was elected district, chairman s a harmony candidate six years ago, if made the candidate for congress, would harmonize and unite all 1 he republican interests in the district. Mr. Moorman is a close personal and political friend of all the seven county chairmen in the district. The name of C. Vv'. Miller, ex-attorney general, also is mentioned, and it is said the friends of Congressman Watson, republican nominee for governor of Indiana, would he glad to see Mr. Miller elected to congress. CAPITAL IN SORROW. Flag Lowered to Half Mast Out of Respect For Brick. Washington, April S;. The death today of Representative Brick called forth far more than the ordinary expressions of sorrow at the capital. The flag floated over the house of representatives at, half mast. His desk was hid from view beneath a profusion of crepe and a splendid floral offering including lilies of the valley, white and red carnations and ferns. Both the house and senate adjourned out of respect to his memory, after the body in which he had served with distinction had appointed a committee of sixteen members to attend hia funeral. Want Funeral Postponed. It was planned that the congressional party shall leave Washington at 5:45 o'clock Thursday evening on the regular train of the Pennsylvania railroad. A special train' will be wailing at Plymouth to convey the party to South Bend, where the special is scheduled to arrive at 2: 2D p. m. Friday. This is twenty minutes after the furneral is announced to begin, Jmt the friends of Mr. Brick will be asked to postpone the funeral from 2 p. m. until o p. ni. for the accommodation
