Right Here In Indiana

Nine persons were seriously injured In a traction wreck at Bluffton a head-on collision. The air brakes refused to work. This happened last Saturday afternoon. It is not more than six months It was last fall that the whole state was stirred over the traction wrecks which followed in quick succession. A whole state was excited and then the excitement went into the languid feeling of carelessness. Nothing of Importance was done in the legislature to protect the citizens from the real cause of the trouble. For some reason the traction interests In this state have been comparatively immune from any attention. Why Is this? The lobbyists In the legislature know. It is a common thing to enter the legislative halls and have the traction lobbyists pointed out it is still more frequent an occurrence to have these men pointed out in the hotels. And one lobbyfsh representing pne interest Is the friend of the lobbyist for the other interest. In this respect Indlsna Is the more dangerously beset. Lobbying has come to be a fine point. It has entered into the very backbone of the parties. The men In the legislature who favored corporation domination of the state were of both parties. There were as many Republicans as Democrats who were "reasonable." The state of things in this commonwealth Is at the present time that the traction interests are above the law. It seems to be their special function this thing of law making and law enforcement. Franchises are easily procured; often they are easily jammed through; the laws of capitalization are framed for the protection of everyone but the average Investor and the man who travels on the road and the cities through which the traction interests travel.

In New Hampshire after years of

i the domination of the Boston and Maine railroad. It has become as pro

gressive as a really insurgent western state. Indiana has a few things to clear up here. One of these is the traction situation. As long as it remains in this situation it will corrupt our politics from governorship to legislature and then to city government. There is a big chance for the men who will go out to clean up on this Unseen Government in Indiana a big chance for defeat for many years a big chance for financial ruin a big chance for an unhappy death. Perhaps that is the reason it has not been done.

Politics and Politicians Buffalo is In tho Held for both of the national political conventions. Parkersburg, , W. Va., is now under the commission plan of government. Senator Jeff Davis of Arkansas wifl shortly begin an active campaign for re-election. The Florida legislature has passed a bill to enable the cities of that state to adopt the commission form of government. Isaac R. Sherwood of the Ninth Ohio district, Is now the oldest member of the house of representatives in point of years. The University of Virginia has as many graduates in the present United States senate sb Yale and Harvard uni versities together. W. II. Thompson of Grand Island an nounces that he will be a candidate for United States senator from Ne braska In the Democratic primaries next year. Forty-six women were chosen as county superintendent of public schools in Iowa at the last election, which Is believed to be the largest number in any of the states.. Arthur I. Gorman, Jr., son of the late United States Senator Arthur P. Gorman, has given his friends to understand that he will be a candidate for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination in Maryland this summer. United States Senator Bradley of Kentucky, who is acknowledged to be one of the ablest lawyers of the Blue Grass state, never attended college, but was licensed to practice law by the legislature of his state. Stephen Brundlge, who represented the Sixth Arkansas district In con gress for a number of years, is planning a hard fight to capture the seat of United States Senator Jeff Davis. The senatorial primary will be held next March. - Political friends of William R. Hearst in New York City appear unanimous in the belief that Mr. Hearst will make every endeavor to be chosen a delegate from New York to the Democratic national convention next year. Leading Republicans of Missouri are hopeful that the national convention of their party in 1912 may be held in St. Louis. They believe that If It is held there Governor Hadley is likely to be named for vice president. Tioga Lodge, the former home of the late Senator Thomas C. Piatt, at Cromwell Lake, New York, has been sold to the Congregation of the Religious of Jesus and Mary, an order of Catholic sisters. The property, which embraces 28 acres of land, will be used for a convent an-1 training school.

TWINKLES CONCERNING MARTYRS. Same of the world's greatest pa triots became martyrs," remarked the student of history. "Yes," replied Senator Sorghum; "many martyrs were merely insurg ents who failed to acquire a sufficient political pull." MORE EVIDENCE. "Here is more evidence of feminine superiority' said Mrs. Baring-Ban ners. "What Is it?" "A hen cackles only when she has laid an egg and a rooster crows mere ly to attract idle attention." THE BUREAU AND THE KI08K. The weather man's report indeed Brings cheer with its convincing powers, Since his thermometers all read A milder temperature than. ours. A RECIPROCITY "My wanderings," said the globetrot ter, "have led me from the equator to the pole." "I suppose you have seen many cur ious people?" "Yes. But the main pleasure has been a philanthropic satisfaction in the interest the natives took in me as something rare and peculiar." CLASH OF AUTHORITY "I understand that the queen will not allow us to wear hobble skirts at the coronation," remarked the doleful duchess. "Let her beware! " replied the leader of fashion. "If she goes too far, small issue a bulletin calling attention to the fact that crowns are going out of style." THE HORSE. The thing they used for motive power, I saw one at a show Uncared for, pulled for many an hour In days of long ago. Its carbureter was concealed, Its radiator, too. Where cooling drafts were ne'er con gealed, Was hidden far from view. You could not open up its side When anything went wrong; No wrenches had to be applied With muscles firm and strong, You did not have to crank it when It started on its way. Instead of gasoline, the men " " Would fill it full of hay. A thing deserving kindly cars It was beyond a doubt. Their treatment of it did not bear Such an opinion out. And now, since the inventive mind Has met its fullest test, The poor old horse at last may find His honest well earned resL ffnew Hew to Say Amen. A little girl prayed that the Lord would keep her naughty brother from catching the birds and then said to her mother: "I feel sure the Lord won't let him do It, mamma, for I've smashed up his traps."

AUTO ARMY SEIZES

CITY OF RICHMOND National Road Black with Westward Bound Cars Sunday and Today. All day yesterday and today auto mobiles from numerous points in the east passed through Richmond carry ing parties of motor enthusiasts to In dianapolis for the 500-mile sweep stakes race at the Speedway tomorrow which promises to be one of the most notable races ever run in the automobile history of the country. Hotel business in Richmond took a decided jump yesterday. The Westcott was thronged morning, afternoon and evening by tourists on their way to the capital city, and the numbers stopping there increased today. More than forty reservations for roorns this evening and tomorrow evmane a l iu esiCOll 1 . ..i.Hraw be received during the afternoon, and is probable that many applicants will have to be turned away. The same condition is said to exist at all hotels in cities and towns between here and Indianapolis. This condition is caused by the fact that already Indianapolis hotels are filled to overflowing, and visitors who have not secured accommodations must look elsewhere. The forty rooms reserved at the Westcott will be occupied by tourists on their way to Indianapolis today, and by the same people returning tomorrow even ing. From Various Points. The flood of automobilists through Richmond is a slight indication of what the crowd will be In Indianapolis. The event seems to be drawing from all points of the country. Among the automobile parties that passed through Richmond yesterday were two from New York. Also there were tour ists from Philadelphia, Pittsburg and Columbus. The majority, however, were from Cincinnati and intermediate points. Canton and Dayton, Ohio, furnished a number of the parties, and many were from Brookville, ' Ind. The total number of tourists who passed through the city could not be guessed at with any degree of accur acy, for many of the machines whizzed down Main street without stopping for a minute. Considerable interest was created among the local automobile enthusi asts by the machines occupied by the tourists. Many high class cars never before seen in Richmond were among the number. Aviator Walter E. Brookins, one of the Wright brothers' proteges, who has startled the aviation world at times by his nervy and almost miraculous man ipulations of the biplane, was in a car that passed through here Saturday enroute to Indianapolis.

ABOUT FREE WOOL Savoyard in Kansas City Star

There has been a deal of backing and tiling over the proposed wool schedule of this Democratic congress. Shall it be such a revision as John G. Carlisle would have made, or shall it be such a reaction as Samuel J. Randall would have given us? Shall the work of the Democratic majority of the 62nd congress be Gormanized as was the work of the Democratic majority of the 53rd congress? Shall we be overwhelmed in another wave of perfidy and party dishonor1? If there is anything firmly established as a Democratic policy it is free wool, for schedule K is the citadel of protection and the duty on raw wool the keystone of the tariff arch. As long as we have taxed wool we will have a protective tariff, and the day wool goes on the free list the tariff wall will tremble, and soon thereafter it will fall. Carlisle said so and Aldrich says so. Only a few days ago Mr. Aldrich said wool is the crux of the protective policy. tit. n!art;oc that favr a t on wool? If botQ parties are for it, what was all that election row about last year? If the country is for a tax on wool why did the people turn out the Republicans, who believe in it, and set up the Democrats, all of whose leaders of any sort of Democratic character since and including James Guthrie have advocated free wool ? . The issue Is plain and simple and sharp. The Democratic idea is free wool-and other raw materials he is bound to use for the woolen manufacturer and then compel him to com pete with the foreign manufacturer by placing a duty strictly for revenue on his finished product. In the first place that would give the people cheaper clothing, cheaper blankets, cheaper carpets which would cheapen the cost of living enormously. Second it would force the manufacturer to make woolens for the foreign trade, and that would enlarge his plant, give employ ment to more labor, supply a larger market to the wool grower and afford investment for more capital. That is the Democratic idea. The republican idea is a protective duty on raw wool, dye-stuff, machinery, build ing materials and everything else the woolen manufacturer has to buy. Then pile up the protection on his finished product so as to give him a complete monopoly of the American market for woolens, such as clothing, hats, car pets, blankets and everything made of wool. "But," says some fellow, "I'll never consent to free wool so long as the manufacturer has protection." No more will I. We propose to give him free raw materials and then take from every scrap of protection not found in a tariff on finished products so con structed as to invite and stimulate im portations of woolen goods. That was the position of Cleveland and Carlisle, of Morrison and Mills, of William L, Wilson and Henry G. Turner, and I'll say this It has ever been the position of William J. Bryan. In my little way I have discharged as many shafts at "the Matchless" as anybody else. I was opposed to him when many of those now abusing him were in his train shrieking "Noel," and striving to touch the hem of his garment; but I always saw in Bryan a genuine tariff reformer of the Cleveland, not the Gor man, of the Morrison, not the Randall type. Strange to say, the manufacturer who buys from abroad 256,606,638 pounds of unmanufactured wool in sists on paying tariff duties upon it to the amount of $21,128,728. Why? Because he knows that as long as there is a duty on wool, 90,000,00 Ameri cans, the most prodigal customers in the world will be forced to buy nearly everything made of wool from him. and the American people pay five times that $21,000,000 to protect him. That is what is the matter with this wool question. It is what the late Jonathan P. Dolliver said it was. rascally and wicked conspiracy be tween the weavers and the shepherds to rob the American people and make living higher In price and greater in hardsBip. When we shall succeed in smashing that cruel and remorseless combination of the shepherds and the weavers the entire rascally tariff will go to pot and not before. And that is what the people ordered congress to do last November and why all this backing and filling is the mystery of it. Who but must laugh if such a man there be?

I have been about congress for some 30 years and It takes a 'heap to shock me. but I got a Jolt the other day. A "Democratic" solon from Ohio said that he was elected by 10,000 ma

jority, but if the Democrats put wool on the free list, he would be beaten by 10,000. Serene in his egotistic assnooa tnis fellow actually believes that it is more important to retain him in congress than for the Democratic party to redeem its solemn pledges of 40 years and upward. I recollect 1S92. A few months after the Democratic 52nd congress passed a bill putting wool on the free list, Ohio voted for Grover Cleveland! for president of the United tSates and it was the only time Ohio has gone Democratic a presidential year since 1S52. The tariff was paramount in 1892, and the Democratic assault was made on the wool and woolen sched ule. It is true that Cleveland got but one electoral vote from Ohio that year, but if every voter had understood the ballot he would have received every one of them. Now it is common report that the ways and means committee will put a duty on wool in order to carry Ohio. Yhen you eat soup with the devil, you must have a long ladle. Why stop at Ohio? Put the tariff high enough on steel and the Democrats would carry Pennsylvania. Michigan could be bought with a high duty on lumber. We could get Maine with a big duty on fish. Nay, make the duty out of sight on maple sugar and we might carry Vermont, that, it is said, will go Democratic when hell goes Methodist. Just think of it we can make the thing unanimous! Put the duties high enough, and Aldrich and Cannon Payne and Dalzell wilt come into the Democratic party. Why, we can de
