III TIME OF PEACE Nature Prepares for War. by ; Furnishing a Supply of Male Babies. SEC. HURTY HAS COMMENT

Secretary Hurty of the state board of health is of the opinion that the country is getting ready for a great war. Statistics submitted to the board for the month of January shows that Providence has been good to the country and brought forth an unusual sup

ply of males. "It Is a common remark," said Secretary Hurty, "among men who deal in vital statistics that when the male birth rate exceeds the female output the coutnry is getting ready for war 1 and that nature has been good to the country and has given a new instalment of baby boys who will make soldiers when they grow up." The total number of births during January was 4,101. Of this number 1M Si were males. The females numbered 1,980. "This Is one of the mysteries of nature," said the secretary. "The next month will probably bring a majority of females. No man can tell what one month or another is going to bring forth in the way of births."

to him for township and ward option, a. thousand dollar license fee, adn one saloon for each l.(XX inhabitants. The charge is made that Bland made trades in the interest of his Linton court bill and that he is bound to vote for the repeal of the county option law, though he denies that he made any promises. Democrats Uncertain, Too. Among the democrats there seems about as much uncertainty as among the republicans. It is said that all the democrats in the senate except McCarty and Tildeu would vote for the Kleckner bill. These two democrats are standing firm for the maintenance of the county option law and say that they will stick to it to the end. But there are some others who would vote for the Kleckner bill who may not be killing to support the Tomlinson bill in any form. For instance there are Senators Long and Yarling. They admit that the Kleckner bill is in conformity with the democratic platform declaration and for that reason they would probably vote for it. but they are not telling ony one whether they will support the Tomlinson bill or not. And the democrats are not sure about Senator McDowell. He has it in for Bland, and if Bland supports the Tomlinson bill it is believed McDdwell will vote against it. McDowell. who ' represents - Sullivan

county in the senate, introduced a bill for the separation of Greene and Sullivan counties and the creation of a circuit court in each county. At the same time Bland introduced a bill to create a new superior court at Linton and Sullivan. Bland succeeded in getting his bil out of committee early and had it passed in a hurry. The same committee made a report killing McDowell's bill. This made McDowell sore. And now there is no telling what he will do on the liquor bills. So there is on way to forecast the result in the senate. The parties are split on the proposition and it does not look like they will ever be able to get together on anything. Senator Orndorf has again been deluged with letters from his Huntington county constituents asking him to vote against the repeal of the countyoption law. Yesterday he received about forty. Wednesday he received 40 and Tuesday 40. "They have a right letters if hey want to," he said last night. "They may write all the letters they please and tell me whatever they please, an-1 yet I shado what I believe to be the right thiS. I saw an article in one Huntington paper the other day that made me mad and I wrote a letter to the editor when I was hot. Then I thought it over and decided that it would be useless for me to argue with him so I tore it up." Would Boost Railroad. Representative Elliott's bill which if passed, would allow the New York and Chicago Air Line railroad to acquire by lease a thirteen mile piece of interurban railroad between Gary and Laporte was advanced to engrossment. The Air Line is building a line from South Bend to Chicago and wishes to acquire this-' piece i track, which la

now owned by another company, and is seeking to do 6o by lease rather by purchase. So Elliott introduced a bill to give them that right.
