TEMPERANCE PEOPLE PLANNING CELEBRATION
Have Visions That Henry County Will Soon Be Dry.
HIS FOOT IN IT. Thomas R. Marshall, democratic nominee for governor, seems to have gotten his foot in it by his remarks made before the democratic state committee. At the time of his selection as democratic nominee the democratic press of the state heralded far and wide that he was absolutely uninfluenced by the Taggart machine. In substance Marshall said before the atate committee, ''I will not accept any invitations to address church meetings, Sunday School meetings. Y. M. C. A. meetings, anti-saloon meetings or other conferences. I expect to make my fight under the orders and guidance of the democratic state committee and on the democratic state platform and will not mix religion with politic."
Marshall undoubtedly intended that remark for a covert sneer at James E. Watson, the republican nominee for governor, who, the day after he had been selected to head the republican ticket in this state, addressed a religious meeting at Anderson and spoke earnestly in support of the splendid temperance clause in the republican state platform. But what Marshall unconsciously has done is to show that he has been sailing under false colors as far as his boasted independence of the Taggart machine is concerned. As he said before the democratic state committee. "I expect to make my fight under the orders and guidance of the democratic state committee." Thomas Taggart is the democratic state committee. He and his friends Crawford Fairbanks, Albert
Lleber and several others who are not
noted for their interest in the success of the temperance movement. And
Marshall, unthinkingly, says he is going to take his orders from a committee composed of such men. Evidently Taggart knew more than was generally supposed when he switched from Ralston and threw his strength to Marshall, who was chiefly supported at that time by earnest and true reformers. In the successful attempt to down L. Brt Slack. The Independent voters of the state, however, will be glad that Marshall
New Castle, Ind., May S. A year ago there were twenty-five saloons in Henry county five at Middletown, thirteen at New Castle, one at Honey Creek, two at Sulphur Springs and
four at Knightstown. All those at
Middletown have been closed, the one
at Honey Creek will close soon, and
two at Knightstown will close during
next month. In this city only seven
of the thirteen are open, and the hear
ing of the remonstrance, case is ex
pected to put them out of business. The
temperance people are talking of hold
ing a big celebration when the last saloon closes. It will be the first time Henry county has been without saloons
for half a century. The saloon men of this city are advertising their application for licenses, however, in order to be ready to present their cases to the commissioners at the June session, providing the remonstrance is defeated.

e Tailor Who Paid Too Much
By Herbert Kaufman I was buying a cigar some time ago when a man dropped into the shop and after making a purchase told the proprietor that he had started a clothes shop around the corner and quoted him prices, with the assurance of best garments and terms. After he left, the cigar man turned to me and said: "Enterprising feliow, that, he'll get along." "But he WON'T," I replied, "and, furthermore, I'll wager ycu that he hasn't the sort of clothes shop that will ENABLE him to." "What made you think that?" queried the man behind the counter. "His ideas are wrong," I explained, "he's relying upon word of mouth publicity to build up his business and he can't INTERVIEW ENOUGH INDIVIDUALS to compete with a merchant who has sense enough to say the SAME things he told you to a HUNDRED THOUSAND men while he is telling it to ONE. Besides, his method of advertising is TOO EXPENSIVE. Suppose he sees a HUNDRED persons every day. First of all he is robbing his business of its necessary direction and besides he is spending too much to reach every man he solicits." "What makes you say that?" "Well, as the proprietor of a clothes shop his own time is so valuable that I am very conservative in my estimate when I put the cost of his soliciting at five cents a head. "Now, if he were REALLY able and clever he would discover that he can talk to thousands of people at .0003 of a cent per inch per subscriber. There is not a newspaper in Richmond, the advertising rate of which is $1.00 per thousand circulation, for a space big enough in which to DISPLAY WHAT HE SAID TO YOU." "I never looked at it THAT way," said the cigarman. It's only "THE MAN WHO HASN'T LOOKED AT IT THAT WAY" who hesitates for an instant over the advisability and profitableness of newspaper publicity. Newspaper advertising is the cheapest channel of communication ever established by man. A thousand letters with one-cent stamps will easily cost fifteen dollars and not one envelope in ten will be opened because THE VERY POSTAGE is an invitation to the wastebasket. If there were anything CHEAPER rest assured that the greatest merchants in America would not spend individual sums ranging up to HALF A MILLION DOLLARS A YEAR AND OVER in this form of attracting trade.

MEEK COMING BACK.
It is probable the days of the city
of Richmond and Wayne county being
sued by one Sylvester Meek of Con-
nersville are not ended. Meek appeared in the lime light as a tax adjustor. Ever since he has had a claim against the city, and it has been fought from court to court. Last winter Meek left Connersville for Oklahoma and local city officials breathed sighs of relief. Now comes the information Meek can not stay away from "dear old Indiana" and is coming back.
San Francisco. May S The great naval, military and civic parade, constituting the chief feature of celebration of the arrival of the Atlantic fleet, was a success. There were about 1",OOo men in line, 8.5v being marines and sailors from the vessels in the bay. A large force of regular troops from the Presidio, the Marine corps, naval militia, national guard of California, veterans of the rebellion and Spanish
wars. California Pioneers ana various semi-military organizations and officials and prominent citizens in car
riages made up the rest or the procession. Secretary of the Navy Metcalf. Governor Gillett of California and staff. Mayor Taylor of San Francisco and Rear Admiral Evans and staff
rode in carriages in the first division, which was headed by the Grand Marshal. Brigadier General Koster, of the
National Guard of California, and staff. The division was composed of regular troops commanded by Brigadier General Funston. including detachments from the infantry, cavalry, signal corps and United States Engineers. Hundreds of thousands of people lined the route of the parade, and when the. people caught sight of Rear Admiral Evans cheering and waving of flags and handkerchiefs began and did not cease until he was out of sight. Today Secretary Metcalf will review the anchored fleets from the gunboat Yorktown.
St. Louis. Mo., May S. En route to the Union Station this afternoon to embark for their home in Lafayette. Ind., Ralph Roel and his wife, Annie, he carrying their two-year-old child, engaged in an argument and the wife turned on her heel and disappeared. "Go on with the baby!" she cried to Roel, who followed her a block. He then found police headquarters and said she wore a brown "Merry Widow" hat. She had brown hair and eyes. "If you find her," Roel added, "tell her to follow me home and it will be all right." Roel then took the train. He says the "Merry Widow" turned her head.

COAL t-ACTS In looks all coal is alike black, rough, sparkling. But there the likeness ends. For some coal burns unevenly, throws off little heat and makes much dirt. Our coal has proven best by test. It burns with a hot, steady flame to a white ash and is most, economical. We solicit your patronage on quality alone. H. C.
