The Equinox is passed the weather Js fast passing the coquetish, false Spring. The ap is mounting in the trees the rain will come apouring ami the streams will flood. The farmer will plant his corn. In other word, Bpring is at hand and all the intrlcau forces of life are at work in the pro cess of regeneration. Last year's flowers, where are they? They are the veriest dirt(and mould, dead and gone. And yet, in the re birth of the miracle of nature we know that the blossoms of this spring will be nourished by what was last year's life. We have become so accustomed to this great wonder that we dismiss tt as commonplace. A commonplace that is a marvel! They say that Rome, that ancien city, died. But Rome, the conquered conquered all the world In its turn, and we our selves stand still captive in its fetters Rome, the dead, fulfilled its mission and in its ruins there sprang up the civilization which transformed in the coarse rough Teuton, Slavic and Gallic tribesmen from our savage ancestors Into what we are. That is nothing but Life in Death. A miracle? Nothing more, you say, than the process of evolution. Nothing but the divine plan of Superior Force. The Scheme of things entire. That's all. '", And yet those who are so active ia explaining things away have but'found a still greater miracle than what they call a simple myth. What Is an explanation which can not fathom the Eternal Mystery but a greater manifestation and a truer promise of the Great Hope? What Is it, gentlemen? What is this Great Hope of ours which makes life worth while? Why this theory that the Good alone prevails and that the Evil perishes. You can point out more than a million Instances where Evil has triumphed over the Good, And yet-you wift admit that tha Good is constructive that Evil is destructive. And all existence has been .building constructing since the beginning of things. The work is still going on. There is your triumph of Good that is, th victory of life over death and 'decay. Life is construction. For the work goes on and the Good Is permanent. Thus, at times, mankind gets a faint glimpse of Eternal Truth, as if that truth were too dazzling a spectacle to be entirely beheld by mortal eyes. - And so, the festival of Easter is the Festival of the Life in Death the triumph of Good over Evil-the Affirmative over the NegativerTbi's is the festival of Past Existence and Future Hope. The Great Hope that vanquishes Despair. if there is any thing in human experience which' should point out more than another the hope of ultimate per fection or even to Life after Death, it Is In this commonplace spectacle of rebirth in the Spring which is goin? on all around us. Dismiss the idea of Christ's Resurrection, if you will, as a beautiful myth and legend dismiss all the evidence of holy men as mere illusions of neurotic fanatics do your best to attack the essential truth of all religions and all creeds which have been since the world began be an atheist and try to renounce all hop do this--' - The humblest spring weed rising from the ground can teach you the lesson of regeneration of Life ovsr.

STRENGTHENING THE PARTY. "Jhe republican party In Indiana i like a man whoT Is critically sick. Now Is no time for evasive words, insincerity or the presentation of fanciful theories. There Is nothing that will tend more to bring about an ear- , iy understanding among republicans than an honest diagnosis of the case, in language so plain that every republican in the atate may understand the trouble. This diagnosis should then be coupled with a prescription which forbids further factional fights and efforts to get even; and which demands a singleness of purpose on the part of all republican leaders and followers alike, to place the party's pood ahead of the interests of any person or faction within the party." Editorial by Carl Riddick in the Winimac Republican April 8, 1908. WHAT THE REORGANIZATION MEANS IN RICHMOND. . We call the attention of republicans in this city to the editorial of Mr. Carl Riddick, the secretary of the republican state committee, in this issue, which is copied from the Winimac Republican. It touches strongly on the same point which we have been trying to bring to the notice of local republicans. Had we done this alone in other words, if the same cry were not going up all over the state we might, indeed, be accused of false sentiments put on for the moment. But these same sentiments were expressed at the recent meeting of the Indiana Republican Editorial Association. They were the keynote of Senator Beveridge's speech and they will be the keynote of Indiana republicans, even after the hoped for regeneration of th party has taken place. 1 There is only one way to build up the party and that is by the rank and file who have the good of the party so much at heart that they will nominate good men at the primaries. And by good men we also mean those whom the whole party can support. When Mr. Riddick urges the party to lay aside factional fights he could aptly have had in mind the situation in Richmond and Wayne county. "The house divided against itself " You know the rest
The prescription which he refers to is to let the faction alone and to ignore it by centering on a man who belongs neither to one or the other the test of a suitable candidate must be from a party standpoint, whether he is a republican and whether he will strengthen the party or weaken it. The test of a candidate must also be the number of enemies he has within the party. For just now it is hard enough to beat the democrats ' in this section of the country without having to overcome the opposition of any considerable number of the republicans in addition. "To place the party's good ahead of the interests of any person or ' faction within the party." That is the true solution of strengthening the party. You cannot strengthen the party by tearing it down. And factional striving is the surest way to tear down the party.
Look over the' situation in this district. It was Wayne county last time that held this district in the republican column. It was Wayne county that rolled up republican votes where the other counties had slid back. But this same Wayne county is not as strongly republican as it might be. This same Wayne county is split into factions. Wayne county is as sick as any county in the state. Wayne county is the keystone. And the heart, of that keystone is Richmond. 4 Knock republicanism in Richmond into pieces tear it down by factional fights and where do you stand in the sixth district? We have confidence In the republican voters we have confidence in the men who have stood by their party in other times when the hope seemed far off. They are loyal to the interests of the party. And they know that the way: to strengthen the party is to nominate such men as they know to be capable, honest and men who could be elected if nominated. If we have many more democratic victories in this city, we shall soon have them in this county. And the democrats know this. They are not asleep.
And so the slogan is going up all over the state: Get together center on good candidates men who can be elected men who can beat the democrats men who will not drive their fellow party meu out of the party. Nominate good men and you will attract votes nominate the other sort and you will have democratic victories. And this is important this is important that the party be united at this time so that it may be ready to take a part in 1910. For in that year the greatest battle for supremacy between the democrats and the republicans will be seen In this state that has been seen here for years it is not merely a Question of state politics it will be national congressmen and senators depend on it. Are we to stand' by now and see mere personal feeling tear the foundation stones out from the structure which is to be our defense two years hence? It is what we do now that will count far more than that which will have to be done a year hence. For the time to strengthen the party and to eliminate factions is at the primary.. That is the prescription to cure the ills for republicans. And if you nominate a man whom the party will not support at the coming primaries you are sowing the gentle zephyr of discord which will ripen into a full blown cyclone two years hence. Let the democrats get a good hold on the city government again and you will have trouble. Nominate a man whom the whole party can support and the difficulty is solved.
rection from the dead, of which Easter is the festival and whether you fill it full of the sweet mystery of the Christian religion or simply recognize it as one of the many festivals of the Spring time, the festival of Rebirth in all religions you can not take away one? iota of its strength. "And when they found His body, they came saying that they had also seen a vision of angels which said that He was alive." St. Luke's Version. So Easter is the time of the Rebirth and the time of Regeneration. This is the time of the Supreme Hope. This is the Festival of Life and Hope. For without Hope, Life is not worth the living. THE COMMERCIAL CLUB. Few people have any real knowledge of what the Commercial Club stands for, and what it is accomplishing for Richmond. It has gone quietly about its business with no great amount of stir. But it has been a potent force in the town and is on the eve of doing still greater things than it has done ia the past. Briefly stated, the aim of the Commercial Club is to work for the betterment of the town and to make those industries which are already here both permanent and' profitable and also to do as much as possible for the whole town in both a material and essential The club has "not thought that tha giving of bonuses was the way to attract business to town it has worked on the idea that if the, town were made a good place for industries and busi
ness, it would not only benefit the business men engaged here already, but would attract others to settle in the town. Along this line the activity of tha club in securing an interchange of freight between the Pennsylvania railroad and the C, C. & L., is typical. The attention of the Interstate Commerce Commission was called the hearings were held in the club rooms, and the recent decision of the Marion county court brought things to a successful termination for Richmond. There is no need to dwell on the obvious advantages to merchants, manufacturers and other citizens both in and out of town, of having an interchange of freight. Although the Commercial Club can not be blamed for the choice of the Glen route, the Commercial Club wa3 active in securing the freight line on the interurban lines entering the city. Every shipper and consumer in the town is directly benefitted. Going further back than this, it wa3 the activity and interest of the club in the Municipal light plant that saved the municipal plant from being sold at a sacrifice to interested persons. The club took the position that as long as the town. had. the .plant and,- hail sunk money into it, the town might as well reap some- of the benefits. This also brings up the question of what the club has done In affecting legislation, both state and national. Its national , influence : has not, of course, been as great as the state Influence. But at the same time- it must be remembered that the legislation or the modern day Is brought about by just such influences from all over the - country of associationa of bual-
ness men. The dab has opposed tha parcels post idea. It has opposed the Alerich currency bill and the Hepburn bill in t- national legislative bodies !
and favored the national tariff commis sion idea. In state legislation it saved this city hundreds of thousands of dollars by opposing the McGinnis bill for ths establishment of a new sewage system. The plan would have bankrupted the town and have stopped all the present sewage construction. And it was largely also, through th-i State Federation of Commercial Clubs that the merchants' uniform public accounting bill was passed. The Commercial Club had the honor and the initiative to effect the organization of the State Federation, so that it in a very large way, is responsible for the recent public accounting law. The State Federation itself is a big feather in the cap of the local organ ization, for the federation is now a powerful agent in the work which is going on in the state for better roads, uniform inland waterways and the conservation of public and natural resources, as well as all other thing.! which work for the good of the state and nation. But the work of the club in a local way has been more important ana more, vital than these other things. Its chief fight lately has been for the lowering of insurance rates. And while the club has done much, the work is by no means all accomplished. As it is now through the efforts of the club, the manufacturers and the other citizens have been enabled to re duce their insurance cost to a mini mum under the present rates established for the whole town. But tha club is not willing to stop there. As everybody knows, within a few years the water works franchise ex pires, and through meetings with the water works authorities, the club U endeavoring to secure a change in the franchise which, though allowing the company to maintain a business un crippled, will give to the citizens of the town service which will let the fire insurance rates be lowered.. This has to do with greater pumping facilities and the construction of a Bee ond water main to town, and possibly such minor things as additional fire plugs and the like. It looks as if in this case the club is going to accomplish a great deal. Through its secretary, Mr. Haas, it has accumulated a great fund of information from all over the country and Canada which will furnish data for the club to work on. The town should know that the Com mercial Club is endeavoring to safe guard the interests of the citizens in this matter. And so the work of the club has gone on quietly in a concerted and definite effort to permanently better the town Permanence has marked the growth of the town in the past, and this ia the line that the club is trying to de velop. The boom town idea has gone its way as suddenly as a boom town is depop ulated. The facts which the Commer cial Club have gathered through thi work of the secretary, have been util ized in many ways as an advertisement to the town. Richmond has the reputation of conservative town. If this idea is kept up by the sort of work the Com mercial Club is doing that is, of build Ing permanently it is one of its great est assets such conservatism is healthy growth. Conservatism in most towns, and m most cases, is not growth but dry rot and so it is that the ideas must not get mixed. Such efforts as those of the Com mercial Club, coupled with the efforts of the Young Men's Business Club, aro the true index to the character of the business men of a town. There, is not a great difference in i,ie aims of tne two organizations, and both have their different methods of working. That is all the better. In many towns th-s commercial interests are engaged in active warfare here the influence the outgrowth of co-operation. is Items Gathered in From Far and Near Can See His Finish.

AS TO REORGANIZATION. An enterprising Indianapolis reporter has recently sent to several newspapers, three dispatches announcing republican reorganization plans. The first declared that within SO days a meeting of the state committee would
be called, that State Chairman Goodrich would resign, and that his successor wonld be elected. The second announced that no such meeting or resignation would take place, that there had been much dissatisfaction with State Chairman Goodrich's con duct of the campaign, and that there was a widespread demand for early reorganization. The third dispatch which appeared a few days ago, an nounces that at the expiration of his present term State Chairman Goodrich will probably- be a candidate to succeed himself, that resenting unfavorable criticism he will thus seek vindication. The Indianapolis reporter who has been seeking political information, has been misled, and has unintentionally gold-bricked the newspapers. The three conflicting reports from Indianapolis have been widely copied and commented upon, and misinformation and unjust criticism, and confusion have resulted. The terms of the present officers of the republican state organization will expire next January, when their successors will be re-elected. Long be fore the recent election, and since, the officers of the state organization have let it be known conclusively, that un der no circumstances would they seek or accept re-election. Within the past few days there met at Indianapolis, a number of repre sentative republican editors of In diana men who know the republican pulse in their several communities. These editors were unanimous and free in declaring that no demand ex ists over the state for present reorgan ization of the party, and that no feel ing of criticism or blame attaches to State Chairman Goodrich or to the state organization for the defeats at the recent election. In fact they de clared that quite the contrary senti ment prevails. In no Indiana campaign have republican editors, and county chairmen and county candidates and other republican workers over the state been so close to, and so real a part of the state organization, attend ing its councils and helping frame and carry out party policies, as in the 1908 campaign. To say that the or ganization did not hold the confidence of the people is to say that the repub lican press of the state, and the coun ty chairmen and their fellow republi can workers in every county In Ind iana were not in touch with the rank and file of the party. No state chairman in Indiana has ever shown more recognition to the country press, or sought and followed the counsels and held the canfldence and esteem of the rank and file of the party, more than has State Chairman James P. Goodrich, and on every hand it is recognized by these who give the matter any thought, that the dispatches emanating from Indianapo lis and carrying a different concius Ion, are Inspired, and the motive is neither to promote future republican harmony nor success Two chief factors contributed to re publican defeats in Indiana last No vember; the temperance plank, and the jealousy between favored leaders with in the party. A majority of the re publicans at the state convention de manded a plank pledging advance tem perance legislation. Many of the ml nority placed their "liberal" view ahead of their loyalty to party, and voted the democratic ticket Many of the friends of one of the foremost re Dublicans of the state, jealous that their chief did not have more voice in the organization and more power with the delegates in the state convention passed out the word to advance the In terests of their faction within the party by defeating republican nominees an discrediting the party organization. During the months preceding th election these conditions were we: known to the state committee and to thousands of loyal republicans withiu the state, who in vain, made every e fort to bring together the disintegrated factions within the party. In no part of the state was the party disloyalty more marked, from both causes, than in Marion county, and that fact help! explain the recent words of discontent and criticism coming from that quar ter " The republican party in Indiana ... like a man who is critically sick. Nov is no time for evasive words, insincer ity, or the presentation of fanciful the ories. There is nothing that will tend more to bring about an early under standing among republicans than an honest diagnosis of the case, in lan guage so plain that every republican in the state may understand the trouble This diagnosis should then be coupled with a prescription which forbids fuither factional fights and efforts to get even: and which demands a singleness of purpose on the part of all repuolican leaders and followers alike, lo place the party's good ahead of the interests of any person, or faction withiu the party. ' r n'hn thp reeiilsr time comes for the reorganization of the republican party within the state of Indiana, it will b reorganized from the precincts up, and by the whole people of the party. The 1908 compaign is past, with its unfortunate outcome, the result of unfortunate conditions, and it should notw be forgotten, except for the lessons to be learned. Those who deserted republicanism because of the local option plank, received nothing but the ashes of disappointment for their pains. They should all return to their party an.l stand loyally by it. The followers or favorite leaders, and the state boasts many worthy of leadership, may spar and "wrestle for advantages in organ!zation positions, and in nominating conventions this has always been done and Is a natural result of American political methods but the most extreme factionalist most let nothing stand in the way of his party fealty if he would serve the true interests of all the republicans of the state, and dej serve for his friends and his leaderjship, the confidence of fellow republijeans within the state and nation. 1 The republicans of Indiana have a plurality sufficient to reclaim the legislature, elect a United States senator and the coiiaHMlotifH daleaUon, aad

The republicans of Indiana may have success if they will but deserve it.
