There is considerable controversy all jvr the state over Senator Beveridge's appointments. The fact that the pat4 l inaafjn of the state outside the dtot trtet represented) . by Barnard and Oraaspncker, fall to the lot of the seniocvswnator, makes his actions more tfcaarwortlk considering. Wfcsxtovere&se may be saM about the whole question, It is none the less true thaOnpon the fair and honest distribution of patronage in this state in the present political! situation, depend the chances of the republican party rn Che neat contest. It is not merely the influence that the particular appointj meats wilt wield by their personal in(fluenos. The actions of Beveridge jwttl be weighed ami picked to pieoes. Iu they would have been at no other iime, to see how they balance with his key not speech of a few weeks since. ' If Beveridge does not carry out his promises to recognize merit, character and ability, it will go hard with him with; this rank and file of the party in Indiana. ' It is only- fair to Senator Beveridge to' aimiiwi thafi he knows that these ' appointments of his are going to have a great deal to do with his future, and for that reason It might be just as well to assume that he will act; on the matter to the best of his ability. The charge that certain of his appointees are to be personal friends and workers of this senior senator Is no proof that these men are. not capable and honest. If it cam be sfaDwnt that friendshtp and obligation are the only treasons for their appointment, that is afferent matter. Pray, tell us why, die fact that an- appointee has indulged in. party work, should be a dtsquaMfi cation for office? Ttds doss not mean that-aorruptlon; Incompetence and pall arenhe things to strengthen the repabHcani party. If BeveUdge shows that bsathlnksrtthls when he makes his ap yointments that Is another tnattar. In the fuBaatime why not leave the wor rytas about the appointments to the one oerson the most concerned? He Is &rtfnr Be veridx. , LET TAFT ALONE. N-onbt the violently nnti-Cannon sources will pour out a tirade of abuse - ogafwat Taftr for his actios, in remainIns quiescent' in the fight against Speaker Cannon. Now is the time for them to begin their operations. Surely it is not the part of wisdom fa the first few days of the administration tor the president to try to muddle things in a fight in congress. There is , only the slightest chance that Taft could have been successful la ousting Cannon. Granted that Cannon could have been defeated there would still have remained his strength in , congress, to cope with, which Is needed in carrying out the reforms of the republican party. , , Surely it would have been the part . of folly to have disrupted the party in congress with the only result of antagonism toward Taft. What Taft did was to make a treaty with Cannon in which tariff revision and certain other reforms were promised his support and if these promises are not lived up to the president will be able to protect the interests of the people as surely as he ever was by the use of the veto. The American people will do well not to attack the man whom they have just elected. Let him have a show. When it can be demonstrated that he Is surely in the wrong it will be time enough to criticise him. SMALLPOX.

You also owe it to your family. , And speaking of the Good Roads movevent, Indianapolis not' only needs a Good Road Congress, but a few able bodied business men in the city hall, if there be the slightest truth in this extract from one of the Indianapolis, papers: The call was answered by Lieut. Sandman, Capt. Manning of the de tectives, Sdrgts. D. Rossette and White and Plainclothes Officer Harry Ulery In the patrol wagon. Pushing through mud which was at times up to the hubs of the wheels, stalling the patrol, the officers did) not reach the scene- of the murder until nearly 6 o'clock. Indianapolis sets an excellent exam ple to the res of thw state! The over grown town in the center of the state seems to be where the city of Washington was when the illustrious Thomas Jefferson rode to the capitol on horseback to his inauguration, In truly democratic simplicity, because a wagon couldn't get through the mud. The announcement of the approachlng marriage of Mr. Joseph Kealing may have had quite as much to do with his resignation as the statement that he couM not bear to see Mr. Delavan Smith tried In that out of the ' way place, the city of Washington, D. C. Although, If he was seeking to avoid trouble, there are some cynics who would prefer other complications than matrimonial ones. To those persons who are criticising the entirely conservative waiting of the police of the city committee we would suggest that it) might easily take all the rest of the year to find- a good reason' why Bennett Gordon' has any right to run on the republican ticket or to aspire to a republican nomina tion, FORUM OFTHE PEOPLE Articles Contributed for This Column Must Not Be in Excess of 400 Words. The Identity of All Contributors Must Be Known to the Editor. Articles Will Be Printed in the Order Received. Editor Palladium: I have read the new gospel, or as much of it as you published In the Palladium of yesterday as preached by the Reverend S. R. Lyons. Its warp and woof are more elastic than anything we have heard, and yet when put upon the enormous stretch that he gave ft In forcing it to cover all Christianity, all divine law and all of the saloonsboth its linear and cross threads are so slender and its meshes so overstretched and transparent to the careful reader it is an Inglorious fizzle. In logic, reason and truth it is a helpless cripple. Let us examine his teaching, stripped of gesture and the resonant echo of the Reid Memorial church. As a student of men and morality, I will ask the Rev. Lyons a few questions, and infer his answers in strict accordance with his utterances in his sermon of last Sunday. 1. I behold a great gathering of quiet, well dressed, wen behaved people assembling in church, in Dublin, some of whom have been congregating there twice a week for sixty- years or more. Who are they. Brother Lyons? Answer They are misguided brethren; they have forgoten the rock from which tfbey were hewn; they are night riders; they win fire their neighbor's bam' at night; tihey will kindle faggots of fire about the feet of God's prophets; their spirit of persecution has burs into flame; the fires of their religious intolerance threatens to destroy their neighbor's business; God reigns! If the saloon Is a righteous insitutlon they are fighting against God! 2. Who are those people in the rural districts who voted t't the saloons, my brother? Ana They are boycotters, persecutors and hypocrites. 3. My brother, look at the man yonder who Is smiling and patting the saloonkeeper on the back, who is he? Ana That man, my brother, is Wm. N. Trusblood, a reverend teacher, a man of blameless Hfe, a simple hearted follower of Christ a Friend in whom there is no guile. The Dublin night riders, acting ini the spirit of the dark ages, wanted Mm dismissed from the Earlham faculty because ha voted for the salvation of one of our chief industries, the traffic in intoxicating drinks. D. R. Y. Editor of Palladium: A few words on local politics. Solon made a law that a citizen who took no part in elections should be dishonored, and disfranchised. Our early colonists fined every man who failed to vote. In ancient Greece the word 'idiot'' meant a man who cared nothing for public interests. He who neglected bis public duties was branded a public enemy. The church member who is able to

vote and will not vote should be ex coinmunscaxed. Men " who cry. that you shouldn't mix religion and politics haven't any religkm to mix. The preacher who considers his calling too sacred to mix it in the public good, is a Priest and Lev-He, and has. no place among the Good Samaritans. Edward Burke said that when bad men combine the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one, an unpitied sacrifice, in a contemptible struggle. Now as to Mr. Bennet Gordon's right to be placed upon the republican primary ticket. It is true that he has opposed times without number, the

nominees and policies of the republican party, but this is a republican trait. It Is a spirit of independence bred In the bone of the republican party. If it disbars and disqualifies him, then we had better commence to use a fine sifter and1 weed out the independ ents, until we have a corporal's guard of the Old Guard left. There is no precedent for keeping him off the tick et. No republicans have been sent to purgatory, yet for running after strange gods; but hundreds have been welcomed back into the told and the fatted calf was killed. We have taken up Democrats and nominated and elect ed them. Oliver P. Morton was a democrat. So was Ulyseess S. Grant. We took 'em in and now honor them as great republicans. The Honorable Thomas J. Study was once a republican and elected to office on that ticket. We hope he may yet return' to the bouss of his father, and we will kill tha obese calf. We always- keep the lamp trimmed and burning that the vilest sinner may retura. " : But Mr. Gordon must abide by the rules and policies be has scattered and enforced with voice, pen and vote. If the 'republican" primary election nominates him, will he get out his wellworn hammer and knock on massmeeting in churches and public halls to protest against bin election. Can he complain if the people protest as vigcrout'ly against him as he urged thfh to do against Dr. Zimmerman? , - He has spread the gospel of independence. He has taught us to bolt and repudiate the nominees of elections -al which we voted, because "our nW' was defeated. Mr. Gordon mryt reap the whirlwind, for he has WJwn to the winds, A REPUBLICAN. Items Gathered in From Far and Near About Walking. From the St. Joseph Gazette. The ordinary, man, who is employed indoors throughout the day, does not walk enough. He needs the fre6h air and sunshine of the outdoors and, no matter how tired he may be, a short time in the open air will rest him. If he lias no opportunity to walk during the evening be ought to do it in the morning. There is nq better tonic than a two mile walk before going to work. Some business men, who live some distance from their offices or stores, walk down regularly every morning and are greatly benefited thereby. No matter how sluggish they may feel on arising the morning walk puts them in - good trim for their work. Exercise in the open air starts the blood ' to circulating in every artery and vein in the entire system, opens up the pores of the skin, so that the waste matter in the body may be set free, limbers up the joints and muscles and puts one in shape for the duties of the day. Press Agents. ' From the Butte Inter Mountain. Pretty soon, the college commencement day orators will begin to ask, in annual speechifying, "What shall we do with our young men?" - Make press agents of 'em. The press agent is bound, one day. to be the first factor in the land. There was never a state of civilization in which his agency was so essential to success; and there has never been a people so eager to swallow his line of talk. From politics to art, the press agent is daily more and more indispensable. We have got to have a label on everything; and the press agent sticks 'cm on with bis little thumb. Queer. From the ' Milwaukee. Sentinel. It does seem a little queer to be paying millions for reforestation and then by the tariff paying more millions for deforestation, doesn't it? Always Present. From the Chicago Inter Ocean. In spite of , the bad weather frequently experienced on March 4. the records show that not a signle president-elect has ever remained away from the Inauguration ceremonies. ! Eruption of Colima. ' From the Mexican Herald. -Oolima is a volcano that erupts more violentcvtue KKtrecrtco r mhkev BUSVU9S DED.

Once again the Columbus Republican has sprung a story about the probability - of the . proposed Columbus, Greensburg. and Richmond traction line being built. Several years ago this line was promoted throughout this section and the word was passed along it was to be built e.t once. It never went farther than the paper state.

IS SCARCITY OF DIPLOMATS TAFT HAS DISCOVERED In Changing the Diplomatic Corps the New President Intends to Select Only Suitable Men.

STAGGERING JOLT TO THE OFFICE SEEKERS Changes Will Be So Made in This Important Service that Others Besides Men to Qualify. Wealthy By Sheldon S. Cline Washington, March 12. A really shocking disclosure of the Taft admin istration Is that there exists a scarcity of men available for diplomatic ap pointments. There are p'.enty of men splendidly equipped, as to ability and character who would be willing to ac cept diplomatic posts but they are too poor. Thsre are plenty of men who have all the money needed but. oh well! The difficulty is in finding the combination of ability, character and money, coupled with an ambition to serve the country abroad. Rough on Job Hunters. President Taft isn't gcing to make any diplomatic appointments just now. That has been authoritatively announced. Later on he would like to make a pretty general cleaning up of the diplomatic corps, putting new men at the head of most of the important embassies and lega 'dons. The only thing that will stop bini will be a scarcity of material. Mr. Taft ls gclcs to tie just as particular about diplomatic appointments as he is about appointments to the judiciary. He had a long experience on the bench, and likeWise he has bad no. inconuidcrable diplomatic experience, having, during bis cabinet days, been American ambassador to about all the world, including the Pope of Rome. " Material la Scarce. It isn't the fault of the American citizenship that diplomatic n u'erlal U scarce. Tbsre are as many or mora men qualified tciuy fcr diplomacy tfcan ever before. The fault- Iras be.-a with the diplomatic appointments of the past ten years. There hai been no fault to find with te ability anl character of tfca mzw appointed. Tha difficulty haa btsn that they had too much money, or, rath.r. th2t they spent too much mc-ney. Tte Idea , spread through the corp tiat the In tccefta of the American republic could best be served by elaborate hospitality. There is no doubt that in tcme instances this helped; in others It hurt. Mere to the point, though, it haa es tablished a scale of living for our rep I ttacce, to accept the London pest, anH have hie h'Dspitalitios contrasfed with those of White-law Reid.

It will be for any one but a millionaire to eucceed him. To Remedy Conditions. A remedy, at leoet a partial one, for this condition, is in the han Js of congress It is to provide In each prlivcipal capital an embaisy cr legation building wilch shall be the official res - I i deuce of the Americea ambassador or Isum euffide&t: fcr its maintenance in the Tray of trvants and carriages. If thr. t1 Jra'-- tD Present salariesable outlay cf money, it Is true, but it would add mere to the dignity and prestige cf tbe United States than any number cf nrultl-mdlllonalre ambaseadecs who were lavish and at times ostentatious in their disp!ay of wealth. With official reslii!oe3 provided It would be necesLary to cieate in the diplomatic sen ice a centiment that would be unbecoming for an ambassador or mmirter. no matter bow great his wcalA. to indulge in expenditures beyond tls ealery aci allowances. Under euch condition the government could avail itself of the highest talent for the diplomatic service and the pres-ideat would not have to hesitate, as he does now, to offer importect posts to men like Dr. Eliot, former president of Harvard, wnonr Mr. Taft vould like to send to London.

Flatulency cr Wind

On Stoxnccb As It Is Commonly Named, Means That Decaying Food Is Making Gas. This most serious condition la very prevalent and results most distressingly and fatally oftentimes. The stomach in cases of flatulency is unable to digest the food properly. Decay sets in. gases form, extend the stomach. force their way downward into the bowels, and if not relieved it extends upward pressing against the lungs, liver and heart, causing shortness of breath, belching, foul odors and many times sudden death. Foods which are filled with gases, when taken into a deranged stomach cause flatulency rapidly, vegetables being especially given to this quality. Against such a condition the stomach can do but little, because these foul and poisonous gases affect its glands, muscles and tissues to s"ch a degree as to incapaciate it almost at once. These gases distend the stomach in all directions, preventing the contracting muscles from doing their regular duties, or if they do force the gas from the 6to..nach it goes e'sewhere in the sy stfm with even more harassing results, and thea the decaying mass still remains to generate more gases. The most effective methods for allaying flatulency Is to remove the cause of ga3 making. An emetic will do this but the stomach will have the same trouble the moment new food enters it. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets get at gas food at once, digobt it. prevent decay, quickly reduce food to nourishment, make good rich gastric fluid and pass the digested food to the in testines, giving the stomach its rest and the system its nourishment. Flatulency simply cannot exist where these little tablets are used. They build up the stomach blulds so that it matters not how many quantities of gas, the stomach does its work well and quickly. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets &re sold everywhere and used the whole world over by sick stomachs and stomachs that want to cat heartily and yet not get sick. Every druggist carries Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, price 50 cents per box. The demand for these little digesters ia constantly increasing.
