The Governor's Message The governor's message to the legislature was on a high plane. It contains 'the essential thing which the people of the state hope to see reflected in the next legislatures actions common decency. The portions in which the governor admonishes the legislation to beware of the lobbyists of great Interests Is worthy of reflection when it is remembered that in the next sixty days in a very full session hundreds of bills will be considered. Every conceivable and possible combination of special interest is at the capital of this state and all the combinations will work together the people are miles away. The Morgan Interests will be present. They are planning to take over the independent 'phones of Indiana and to join them once more with the Hell or as we now Bay with Tel. & Tel. the American Telegraph and Telephone sybteru which Morgan owns. Indeed the stock and control of these "independent" companies is already in tho hands of the Morgan interests. It remains only for them to get what practically amounts to a merger in this legislature to proceed with the rest of the program. While the franchises stand as they now do it makes little difference who owns the stock the people are hi come measure protected but let It once go and there is an end of it and monopoly starts in again aa before with the whple state at its mercy and those small companies built by private and individual subscription without long distance connection and therefore eventually put out of the business. Then there are tho traction interests in this state more powerful than the railroads when it comes to lobbying what will have legislation arfectlng every city and town in the state and not for the benefit of the cities or towns either. Certain manufacturers will be there using the full force of the influence of all the Industries In Indiana to knock out the most beneficial legislation for the whole people of this state that could bo enacted labor legislation employers' liability legislation and child labor laws. There will be the most powerful lobby in the state directed against any attempt to change the capitalization laws to prevent stock watering of public utility companies and the like. There will be a powerful lobby to defeat commission government and the recall and the primary laws that are contemplated to give the people the power to govern themselves and to do away with those men who serve the interests rather than the state. These and many more and each interest with the best legal talent in the country at its disposal with the most polished and most adroit men in the business at work trying to win over men who do not in some cases really know what they are doing when they vote hurriedly on this or that measure which is reported hurriedly out of the committee and emasculated or filled with jokers. These are the odds. That Is the really important part of the governor's message In which he says: It is the right of a citizen to appear before a legislative committee and present arguments touching proposed legislation. It is not unlawful for you to hold private conferences, but it Is Inexpedient. If you are wise you will avoid the appearance of evil. The people will be patient with your mistakes if they believe them to be honest. They will suspect the best legislation if they do not know why it was enacted. The people s business ia your business just now. Beware of the man who wishes to show you a good time the day after he has been introduced to you. He has an ax to grind and he intends to chop his own wood with it. There is no money in honest public service. He who flies high in office has some one holding the string to his kite. Beware of the highflyer. This, by way of advice. By way of warning, let me suggest that your constitutional immunity from arrest does not mean that bribery shall go unpunished. Honesty Is not only the best policy for a legislator, it Is an essential qualification for the discharge of public duty. You can render the state no greater service than to safely incarcerate within prison walls any man who makes an illegal proposal to you. Tell me who does it and I will assume the responsibility of punishing the felon.

HAD THESMALLPOX Did Anderson Man Who Visited Here. Suffering from smallpox, of which he waa not aware, Andrew Davis came to this city on Wednesday evening. People on a passenger train and at the P. R. It. station were exposed to htm. He went to the home of a broth er, living at 319 North Twentieth street, and complained of feeling ill. IIa then went to a physician a office and was examined, it being found that the symptoms of the disease were well developed. The Dhvsician notified the health department and when sanitary inspec tor Henry Scherb called at the home of the victim's brother to card the bouse, he was informed that Davis had returned-to Anderson. When he left his brother on Wednesday evening he told him that he would not be back If anything serious was the mat ter. There have been many cases of smallpox in Anderson this fall and winter. Every precaution has been taken by the health authorities and places where the man visited have been thoroughly fumigated. MASONIC CALENDAR Saturday, Jan. 7, Loyal Chapter, No. tlon of officers.

SUED F0RCAR FARE Passenger Had No Seat and Refused to Pay. St. Louis, Jan. 7. Alton S. Miller, president of the Union Eelectric light and Power Company, was made a defendant in a justice court suit for $2.16 yesterday. The plaintiff is the Pennsylvania Railroad Company. No declaration was filed in the case, but according to Mr. Miller, a reservation on a Pullman car between Philadelphia and Bellniar, X. J., last summer, which he refused to pay for because he did not get it, was the cause. He said he was obliged to stand up all the way. "My determination is not to pay first-class fare when I had to stand. I'll fight this case up to the United States Supreme court and if necessary I'll spend $50,000." says Mr. Miller.

ACCUSE POLICE CHIEF OF THEFT Kokomo, Ind., Jan. 7. Blaine Record yesterday went before the prosecuting attorney and made affidavit that Chief of Police Windoffer had retained 15 cents, which the chief had taken from Record, when the latter was a prisoner. The prosecuting attorney has not yet acted on the affidavit, but will first make an investigation. He regards the filing of the affidavit spite work on the part of M. J. Webb, who was dismissed from the force Monday evening and until further information touching on the alleged Irregularity is obtained he will do nothing. Webb continues to make threats of precipitating a general investigation of the police department, one not only involving the officers, but the board as well. IN HISTORY" 25c

Heart to Heart Talks.

By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright. 1908. by Edwin A. Nye APPRECIATION. Appreciation of another's work put into kindly speech la all too rare, but recently I have been tbe beneficiary of such a wordHere ami. one of tbe numerous writer folk, playing, as an actor might, to an invisible and dumb audience. Do I please? I do uot always know. I only Uno I do my best In the nature of thiuj? I seldom hear applause. I know my motive is good, for I annot so built that. like a nlckel-in-the lot machine, yo'i can put in a topi and draw out a "Heart to Heart Talk. To write as 1 could always wish t write I must feel tbe urge something must take bold of me. And then it i with the keenest pleasure that 1 pudown tbe words. Flainly, 1 must work within certai? lines. I must write of things of hu man Interest, and I must be brief. Am. thus I have been writing every da; for about three years for this news paper and many others. Once iu awhile in a roundabout wa; I bear from some one in the audience but should I depend upon such in fro quent expressions I should becom thoroughly discouraged. But nowJust the other day. when I was feei ing a little blue, came a ringing salutfrom a man of big brain and big heart ' It was the Rev. Samuel D. Purvis D. D.. who wrote me the letter. Ills the popular divine whose printer sermons bid fair to become more pop ular in his day than Talmage's ser moos in his day and justly so. He had never known me. but bat' read some of my talks. Permit me to quote one sentence from his letter: "If your talks catch others as they do me I'm sure many a fellow carrying the heavy end of a log will look up and take a fresh grip aad many a woman with aching bead and aching heart will hum a hymn of fresh inspiration." Wasn't it fine that be should hunt me up to say that? And it did not make me proud, either. While it encouraged me. tbe letter made me take a fresh grip on my own task and bum a hymn of fresh inspiration. Ah, there's hope and heartening in a voice of cheer! Speak it, friends. Rest the weary ear of mortals, hurt with the continuous strain of the strife, by tbe strangely sweet music of brotherly appreciation. MILWAUKEE WOMAN HEALTH OFFICER Milwaukee, Jan. 7. Milwaukee's So cialist city administration has the first woman "health cop" in America, and she is not a Socialist either. She is Miss Edna Finch, a trained nurse, about twenty-five years old, who passed the city civil service examination in a field of a dozen applicants, and she went to work on her "beat" this week. The Milwaukee housekeeping policewoman will at the outset be detailed only for work in factories where women are employed, and she will not be required to wear a uniform. She will only wear a badge like those of the other health policemen. Later on the health department hopes to have a corps of "health coppers" in petticoats, whose duties will be to visit homes of which there is complaint, and teach housewives how to run their establishments. At the beginning, however, there will be only the one officer, who wil watch bakeries, laundries and other places where women are employed, to make certain that the health of women workers is being protected. The women officer will work in con junction with the state woman fac tory inspector. She will receive a salary of $S0 per month. Less Tims. Q. In what month do ladies talk the least? A. In February.

MAIMED TOILERS. -sasssBpjsBBBsaaas Two Millions Annually Injured In Industry.

PROBLEM OF COMPENSATION. t United States Behind All Other Civi lised Nation In Laws For Protection of Workmen Lack of Safety Devices Largely Responsible. Jobn Mitchell, former president of the mine workers, la a recent address before the Liability Insurance association said in part: Industrial accidents and compensation for losses caused by them are subjects In which the workingmen are more directly interested than any other group in society. Primarily the 1 workingmen are more concerned with tbe means of preventing industrial accidents than they are with the subject of compensation for losses caused by them. It is all very well for a workman to receive $1,000 for the loss of an eye or the loss of a log. but it is much better for the workman, as It is for society, that the eye or the leg be not lost. In the United States the number of persons killed and injured is not even counted, but William Hard credits the American Institute of Social Service with the statement that 53G.1G5 workmen are killed or maimed every year in American industry, while Dr. Hoffman has estimated the annual number of industrial accidents at approximately 2,000.000. As a matter of fact, however, the death roll of industry is longer than Is evident from official figures. It Is a strange commentary upon our boasted American civilization that In this country twice or three times as many persons per thousand employed are killed and injured in the course of their employment as in any other country In the world. When we observe the contrasts between the number killed and injured In the Industries of other nations with that of our own we are led to the conclusion that If It cost more to kill a workman In American than to protect him, as it does in Europe, the American workman would not be killedhe would be protected, and the number of Industrial accidents would be reduced at least one-half. As a further means of reducing accidents our iniquitous and antiquated liability laws should be supplanted by an automatic system of compensation to workmen for losses caused by industrial accidents. The United States Is now tbe only industrial nation on earth that maintains the old system of liability based upon negligence. We still live under the common law only slightly modified by statute. As a rule, an Injured workman has no remedy at law if bis injury were caused by the act of a fellow workman or if he contributed in any degree to his own injury. In many instances be has no remedy at law whatever, because it has been held by the courts that the workman in accepting employment assumes all tbe risk of bis work.. The result of all this judge made law has been that the workman is practically helpless, the employer Is under heavy expenses defending himself in tbe courts, and the courts of tbe state and nation are burdened beyond their capacity with litigation that in every other nation is eliminated because of tbe automatic settlement of such claims. It may be Interesting to consider the expense and the useless waste of money which is involved under our present liability system. Mr. Hard states in bis booklet that in tbe eleven years 1894-1905 the employers liability companies of America took in $00,959,075 in premiums from American employers and that these companies paid out in the settlement of claims of Injured workmen $43.f99,498. or 43 per cent of the amount they took In. Of the $43,599.498 paid in tbe settlement of claims of injured workmen I believe it Is safe to say that 35 per cent was expended by the Injured workmen in the payment of attorneys' fees and court expenses, so that in the final analysis the Injured workmen received less tlum $30,000,000 out of the $100,000,000 paid by employers during this period ba premiums to liability companies. In other words, $70,000,000 was wastedworse than wasted because the money was nsed in burdening our courts with litigation and in delaying or defeating the settlement of claims, many of them just claims, when It should have been used and would be ueod under a wise system for the Immediate relief of tho men and . their famyiea who are tho victims of tbe hazard of industrial pursuits. I am not prepared to say that even though tbe entire $100,000,000 bad been paid directly to the injured workmen it would hare been sufficient to have Indemnified them for their losses, but I do believe that It would not have required very much more to have compensated them on the basis of the British workmen's compensation act. I believe that industry should bear the burden of tbe pecuniary loss sustained by workmen as a result of Industrial accidents, just as it is now required to repair its machinery and to offset tb loss caused by depreciation in the value of its plants. Tbe workmen and those dependent upon them are and win bo under any system required to bear all the physical pain and mental miaering. For this they ctnnot be reimbursed, but they should be relieved of the harrowing fear of hunger and waut. They should be guaranteed gainst the humiliation and degradation of becominc objects of charity. BARNARD RETURNS TO CAPITAL CITY Congressman W. O. Barnard of the Sixth district, has gone to Washington to serve the remainder of his term which expires in March. Mrs. Bar nard, their daughter. Miss Ruth, and son Ralph, have been in Washington several days. Upon his retirement from congress Mr. Barnard will make New Castle his home and again engage in the practice of law.

Gossip From French Capital; Noted Landmarks A re Doomed

(Special Cable from the International News Service. BY LA VOYAGUESE. Paris, Jan. 7. We are daily hearing complaints of the loss of Paris "atmosphere." and much of this criticism is, I fear, quite justified. At the same time, it is impossible for the hand of progress to be stayed by mere thoughts of sentiment. Even if mere pecuniary interest did not require it, there is the question of sanitation, calling aloud for greater and greater cleanliness more air, more light. A curious and quaint bit of Paris is marked for the tumbrils in the cabaret of the Ange Gabriel, a wonderful resort of bandits and footpads. It has inspired. I do not know how many detective novels, this lurking ground of ne'er-do-wells and cut throats. The real meeting place of the Apaches was upstairs in a narrow filthy room, approached by tortuous staircase. It possessed all the properties of sensation. The visitor was received with coarse ribaldry by the assembled guests and invited to buy refreshments by ill featured harpies. Some deadly duels have taken place in this room and plots of all sorts have been hatched. Lately it has become a show place and the birds have flown elsewhere. This is partly due to the fact that of the two Apache chiefs, Manda and Lecoa. one Is dead and the other in prison, suffering the penalty of manslaughter. And Casque d'Or the fair inspirer of these duels, has momentarily disappeared from the scene. Her fame has been somewhat overshadowed by that of the Grande Marcelle, who was the sweetheart of Llabeuf, the Apache who murdered a policeman and was guillotined for it. The comedy at the Athenee is extremely amusing in a thoroughly Parisian way. The story is a new version of the old one of a young man who has never been kissed except by Jupiter. Jupiter is his dog, who is beautifully behaved and makes his bow each evening to the-audience in a silver collar. The aunt of the hero a dowager of the old school, has no sympathy with rusticity, and suggests a little trip to Paris. But the young man recoils with horror from the idea too much noise, he thinks and not enough dogs. He is engaged to a particularly pretty cousin, who just tolerates him until she falls in love with a rake another cousin who is perpetually "tapping" aunty to pay his debts. This is excellent fooling. The result is that the cherub goes off to Paris and leaves Jupiter to the care of the gamekeeper at the chateau. Presumably he finds wisdom in the city of pleasures. The theme, as I say has no particular novelty in it and reposes on the Latin contempt for masculine innocents a dangerous doctrine, no doubt. Tbe charm of "Les Bleus da l'Amour" a slang name for blameless young man comes in the acting. It is delicious, especially Augustine Lerlche's outline of the dowager of the old and fearless school, when the high bred woman of the world did not disdain to discuss any subject. M. Antoine, at the Odeon, has started Saturday matinees of new plays which he thinks more interesting than

Mother and Son Give Words of IPraloe Mrs. Barbara Burke suffered for years from malaria and chills. Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey drove the disease from her system and keeps her healthy and happy. Her son says Duffy's is "one of the family." He would not be without a bottle in the medicine chest.

MRS. BARBARA BURKE and her son, Mr. VALLY BURKE Mrs. Burke writes: "Fifteen years ago I was a sufferer from malaria fever and chills. On the advice of a friend I took Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey and was cured. It proves effective in keeping malaria from my system and is a grand medicine for aged people. I have continued to use it ever since as a tonic" Mrs, Barbara Burke, 730 So. Liberty St, New Orleans, La. In his letter Mr. Burke says: "It is with pleasure that I say and write and it is a pity that I cannot write these words in gold, 'Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is just one of the family, a good help in need.' Good luck to you." Vally Burke, Adv. Agent, .Winter Garden Theatre, New Orleans, La. Duffy's Pure MalHVhlsEtey has always been and is now a pure, wholesome, healthful medicinal whiskey, produced without regard to expense in compliance with the requirements of the Foods and Drugs Act, the doctors' "Materia . Medica" and the "Pharmacopoeia " the two recognized authorities on drugs and medicines in the United States. Great care is used to have every kernel thoroughly malted; thus producing a liquid food, tonic and stimulant, requiring no digestion. Its palatability and freedom from injurious substances render it so that it can be retained by the most sensitive stomach. Its gentle and invigorating properties influence for good every important organ in the body. It makes the old feel young and keeps the young strong and vigorous. CAUTION.

paying, and each of which he will give Lenarue, who, I am told. Is deaf and dumb, may indeed, not pay, because it is frequently written over the heads of the public, but it is exceedingly Interesting. It ia a sort of preface to M. Henry Bataille's "Merge Folle," but the virgin turns out "wisee" Instead of "foolish" and another difference la that Mdlle. Lenarue has raised the question to a far higher intellectual plane than the level of sentimentality on which M. Bataille moves. The latter avoided the most difficult problem in his play. He took the married man of 45, when he won the girl of 17, and carried them on through four acts of passion at the discarded wife's expense, but never told us how he won the girl or how he made up his mind to win her. Not only is Mdlle. Lenarue's subject far more subtle the beginning of passion but she makes her hero a superman and her heroine a superwoman, and in that is the tragedy. The former Is the greatest philosopher of his day, who, living austerely has preached a doctrine that shatters all the old morality. The girl has come from a convent of Cistercians, and turns out to be one of the free and master minds of which he is a leader. The two read and work together, and of course, love one another. Shall they, true to his higher morality, unite to find together the best they can out of life, heedless of such accidental impediments as his wife? He dares; she dares not. The mother superior of her old convent works upon her fears, and wins the girl back to renunciation. Is not sacrifice the worst selfishness? asks the bitter and heartbroken philosopher. Few plays of late years have dealt so firmly with the subject.

The historic collections of the city of Paris have lately received an inter esting addition. The Empress Eugenie has presented the cradle offered to her majesty by the city on the birth of the prince imperial. The cradle will be on view in the annex to be opened shortly, of the Carnavalet museum. It is not only a historic souvenir of great value, but it is a real artistic chef d'aeuvre. The cradle was designed by Baltard. It beam the arms of the city, is in the form of the nave of a church and is made of rosewood. Several artists had a hand in beautifying this cradle Hippolyte Flandrln ornamented it with four medallions in cameo, and Jacquesard and From ent Maurice designed the jewels. Simert was responsible for the allegorical figure of the city of Paris holding in her raised arms the imperial crown from which the curtains fell, and a silver eagle. This is the second notable cradle presented to the city. The other was that occupied by the king of Rome. AN INCREASE MADE IN STREETS DEPT. By the recent addition of another man and a wagon, the street department is now able to clean all alleys of the city at least once a week. Before making the increase the department was unable to satisfactorily keep the city clean.
