THE EICUXIOKD PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, THURSDAY AUGUST 3, 111-

DRUNKS INCREASE IN WAYNE COUNTY Gain of Nearly 100 in Two YearsDry Neighboring Counties Blamed.

Interest of both the Indiana Association of Brewers and the Indiana AntiSaloon league has been centered on the report of the state board of charities for 1910 and 1908, containing comparative data on the reports from the . various counties in the state as to the number of persons jailed in these respective periods on charges of public Intoxication. In this county there were almost a hundred more sentences to jail on drunkenness charges in 1910 than In 1908. the actual number, according to the board's rejort, being 317 In 1910 and 235 in 1908. The two organizations are studying the reports closely in order to secure material In Bupport of their contentions. Each claim the reports support their arguments. Insofar as the state total is concerned the 1910 report

shows there were 12,961 jailed for

public intoxication while in 1908 there

were 13,596 persons who served short

terms for this offense. A Reason is Cited. Although Wayne county had a very noticeable Increase, the "wets" point

out that when all the surrounding

counties were "dry" Wayne was invad ed by "suit case brigades," many fall

'Ing by the wayside while within the

borders of Wayne, and were sent to

LJail. But the gain shown In this county iwas not In comparison to what it was in many of the wet counties In the

totate. The reports on the number jail

ed where very noticeable increases jwere made, are as follows: Marion, &17 In 1910, 539 in 1908; Allen. 621 in 11910, 347 in 1908; Blackford. 446 in '1910, 74 in 1908; Cass, 453 in 1910, 240 in 1909; St. Joseph, 786 In 1910, 511 in

1908.

There were Just as noticeable decreases, the Marlon county workhouse receiving but 658 drunkards to serve sentence in 1910 as against 1,092 in

'1908. In Benton, Brown, Crawford,

Franklin, Harrison, Martin and several other counties there were very few

people jailed for intoxication.

The records for Wayne's neighboring counties is as follows: Randolph,

48 served jail sentences in 1910, 86 in 1908; Union, not reported in 1910, 16 In 1908; Fayette. 13 in 1910, 73 In 1908, Henry. 279 in 1910, 193 in 1908. The record for Delaware county of which Muncie is the county seat Is 301 in 1910, 372 In 1908. All these counties were "dry" in 1910. The "drys" claim t he county option law which has been repealed was responsible for decreases. It became effective In September, 1908. The yearly reports of the state board Include the fiscal year from October 1 to September 30. - The total cost of Wayne county In boarding and lodging people found guilty of Intoxication is not Indicated but the cost to the entire state was $39,117.95 In 1908, aginst $37, 403.83 In 1910, or a decrease of $1,-714.12.

THE COLLAR AND CUFF INDU8TRY This line of manufacture, as well as shirts and dry goods products, derives an enormous profit from the use of strong, alkaline soaps used in the laundry. When buttonholes break, buttons come off and fringes form on the collars and cuffs, change your soap at once. Get Hewitt's Easy Task soap, a clean, harmless dirt remover of superior quality. It is white, contains no harmful ingredient, and cannot injure the most delicate fabrics or surface. Try It and join the army of enthusiasts. Buy two cakes from your gTocer, and if you are not satisfied return the other and get your money back. Is that a square deal?

(National News Association) WASHINGTON, Aug. 3. The senate

this afternoon passed the congressional reapportionment bill without divis

ion. The bill increases the house membership from 391 to 433. The only amendment adopted was one offered by Senator Burton, providing in cases where states gain additional representatives, the members representing the

increase shall be elected in the state at large, instead of from districts. This is calculated to prevent the gerrymandering by present state legislatures, controlled by the Democrats.

Such election shall prevail until such

states are redistricted by the legisla

ture. It was a strict party vote on

the amendment.

POSTAL BUSINESS HERE FLOURISHES

The month post office report which haa just been made shows that there was over $800 more businesea done during the month of July this year than the same month of last year. The total receipts for the month of July was $8,191.24. The surplus sent to Indianapolis was $975.08. The federal officials are very much pleased with the showing made by the local office. The summer months are always the dull season of the year, and such large receipts show that the business of the vlocal office is rapidly increasing. Shorthand Pioneer. That the ancients were thoroughly conversant with shorthand is an undisputed fact. It subsequently became lost art until revived or rediscovered toward the end of the sixteenth century.

Sample food commodities on the produce market in Richmond during the past few days of this week, found a steady outlet at steady to strong

prices, with eggs 1 cent higher, butter varying from two to three cents higher, and chickens a little advanced

from the preceeding week's closing

prices. Perishable commodities, such as green fruits and vegetables, were in ample supply and finished the week in steady prices with a slight in

clination of going higher. As yet the large quantities of fruit from Michigan has not commenced to arrive, and

will not until the later part of next week, when both apples and pears

will make their appearance on the lo

cal markets.

Generally speaking the trade was of good volume, with marked activity in the trade for butter, eggs, and poultry

and a fair trade In fruits and vegetables.

The price in creamery butter has advanced to 30 cents a pound, which is an increase of two cents, the price being paid for country butter is 27 cents which is an increase of threa cents over that paid for It last week.

The cheese market Is steady selling for 25 cents a pound. The action of the Wisconsin cheese manufacturers failed to effect the local markets. Spring chickens were steady with a price being paid by the Eggemeyer grocery is 16 cents. Ducks, geese, and turkeys are not on the market and there is practically no demand for them. The outlook for the turkey crop this year is good. Large droves are reported in all sections of the county. Apples are 30 cents a bushel and are plentiful. There are practically no pears on the market. Melons are being shipped in and range from 25 to 50 cents. Potatoes are very scarce. They are $1.50 a bushel and as the crop will be about a half, there will be a steady advance in the price. Lack of rain is assigned for the failure of the crop. Fancy fruits and choice green vegetables are selling at a good price.
