A study of occupational diseases and accidents made by the New York state department of labor shows that there were 13,400,000 cases of sickness among wage earners in the United in wages of more than $366,000,000. Many of the accidents were unavoidable, the report ' says. Many more diseases are, however, directly ascribed to "unavoidable industrial process es." Workingmen, women and child ren are killed and disabled by the thousands because of want of safeguards about machinery. This is false economy. The individual employer of labor may be the gainer for the time being. But the nation will be the loser in the end, Germany has outdone all other nations In the matter of safeguarding the life and health of Its workers. And, as we believe, in consequence it has far less of acute and ugly poverty than one finds in the industrial centers of the United States. It has not such festering slums as we have. When a breadwinner is killed by Industry in the prime of life his orphaned children are not going to get the education which they would have, had their father lived. - What an employer has saved by not protecting the machinery which has t killed the father will often be paid out with interest by the state and nation to the son in the shape of prison fare or maintenance in a lunatic asylum.V A Posor, A verbatim fragment from the law courts; King's Counsel (examining witness) Did yea know you did not, but I am bound to put it to you on the 25th It was not the 25th really; it was the 24th; it la a mistake in my brief see the defendant he Is not the defendant really; he is the plaintiff there Is a counterclaim, but yon -would not understand that yes or no?

Ward Meetings the Beginning Of Government. Meetings will be held in the wards of the city and in the townships of the county today and tomorrow for the purpose of selecting delegates who will meet in the several conventions and nominate candidates for congress, representative and joint representative, These ward and township meetings are important and every citiien who is a Progressive and ln sympathy with the Progressive movement should attend and take part in them. Under our present election laws the system of ward meetings seems to be the best means of selecting the delegates for the conventions. If the Progressives are successful in the coming election and a Progressive legislature is secured, the system of conventions and ward meetings will be abolished and the candidates will be selected at primaries, the only fair and just way for the citizens to express their.f hoice. Heretofore the average citizen has taken no active part in his ward meetings or in the conventions and has left the selection of delegates entirely to a Bet of men who are in the pay of bosses or are actuated by a desire for political reward. Under this system the political boss and the special interests have been able to control our state and national legislative bodies. This is the real reason for our present corrupt system of government. It Is still necessary to operate under this obsolete system so every citizen should realize that there is a solemn duty resting upon him to attend his ward or township meetings and see that the right men are selected to represent him in the conventions. Don't stay at home and think that there will be others who will look after your interest. They will not. If you, as a citizen, are not enough interested in the selection of the right candidates for office there are plenty of others who are interested and "will attend for entirely selfish reasons. This very thing is what the Progressives are striving to overcome. The beginning of our present system of government is, in the ward meetings, and unless the Progressives are successful at the coming election the same system will continue. Heretofore the people who are in politics for selfish reasons have made the nominations in both of the old parties and then they have stepped aside and said "let the people take their choice." It has been a case of "heads you lose and tails I win." Will we allow this plan to be carried out this fall? Don't fail to realize that now is the opportunity to change the system and today and tomorrow is the first Btep toward this goal. IT Is THE DUTY OF EVERY CITIZEN TO ATTEND HIS WARD AND TOWNSHIP MEETING.

A Typical American.

Let's organize a club right here in Rushvllle, for Roosevelt and Beverldge, the home of standpatters and open the eyes of the skeptical. No need to be afraid. Everything connected with the Progressive party is open and above board. Honesty need not be the least afraid of dishonesty or dishonest methods. Rushville American. The Rushville American Is a paper that deserves the unqualified admiration of Indiana Progressives. In the town where it is published twice a week it has taken up the great work of giving publicity to the propaganda of political and economic reform, calmly Ignoring the frowns of Rushville's feudal lord, James E. Watson and his retinue of retainers; taking up the great work that its two more powerful competitors Ignore and sneer at. But the American need not feel lonesome. The bulk of the Rush county voters stand behind it and the day following the election the American will not be astonished to learn that it has headed a movement which has accomplished the overthrow of the Watson reactionary element. . That is reward and honor enough for any newspaper.

Gray Will Explain.

FInly Gray has returned home to start his campaign for re-election. He will be kept busy for some time preparing manuscript explaining to all the Democrats in his district how he acquired the habit of bolting party caucuses; and to Democrats, Progressives and Republicans alike why he devoted his entire time building political fences with private pension measures. Also he will find it necessary to explain why he voted against the patriotic policy of maintaining the naval strength of the United States. !

lhis Js My 55th Birthday JAMES T. LLOYD. Representative James T, Lloyd, who has just received a renomination without opposition at the hands of the Democratic voterB of the First Missouri district and against whom the Republicans failed to nominate a candidate, was born in Canton, Mo., Aug. 28, 1857. After finishing his college education in 1S78 he taught school for several years. At the same time he studied law and was admitted to the bar in, 1882. Since 1885 he has been engaged in the practice of his profession in Shelbyville, Mo., where he served as prosecuting attorney for four years. He was elected to Congress in 1897 and has now represented his district continuously for fifteen years. To the public at large Representative Lloyd is perhaps best known as the chairman of the Democratic national congressional campaign committee. 'CONGRATULATIONS TO: Francis G.

How to Carve the Christmas Turkey, 'When carving a turkey place the fork firmly in the breast, one prong being on each side of the breastbone. ' Pass the knife first around the leg. then remove it. then the wing first on one side, then the other. By cutting the ligaments the joints will readily open. When these have been displaced cut the breast in thin slices, using the knife flat against the breast and cutting from you; then slip it underneath the wishbone; lift, press it backward and remove It. Turn the turkey slightly so that you may cut the shoulder blades from the underside of the carcass and from each side of the backbone without removing the carving fork. Then cut directly through the ribs up to the breastbone joint and then the other, separating the back of the carcass from the breast. For the first time remove the fork. Divide the upper from the lower part of the back, cut down the backbone and divide the lower portion of tbe back in two pieces. Then separate tbe second joint from tbe leg and cot It into three slices, the leg into two, and it is ready for Miring.

Kttf CLEAN INSIDE. Youngs matt That man who In your presence- tries to tell u smutty tory insults your soul. Turn on your hnl sod leave him. Morally such n man attempts a crime that U meaner thstt that of reaching for your pocket book. The motive for the crime may le lacking. He may not realize his offense. As a matter of fact, morally considered, he ia guilty just the same. Some of these peddlers of tilth are wbited sepuk-Uers gentiemenly ns to outside appearauce. but inwardly filled with dead men's bones. Thia is a good rule for you: Do not permit yourself willingly to listen to any sort of story that you would not be willing to tell again to your mother or your sister. A filthy suggestion will soak into your clean mind as spilled ink will soak into clean blotting paper. Permit no one to drag your mind through bis sewer. Do you know many a grown man of today would sacrifice considerable to wipe clean from the tablets of his memory stories aud suggestions he listened to when a boy? I cannot think a real gentleman will take deliberate enre to repeat a, risque story in the presence of youth. He Is meanness incarnate who would delight in daubing a coarse picture oq a clean wall. . No real gentleman will listen to or try to remember or to retell a story he would hesitate to repeat ln the family circle. Is the standard too high? You doubtless remember the Just rebuke administered by General U. S Grant to a thoughtless officer of Ktaff who, starting to recite a vile tale, prefaced the attempt by saying, "I believe there are no ladies present." whereupon quickly retorted Grant: "There are gentlemen present." It is of record that tbe tale went untold and thereafter no one durst attempt a questionable story in the presence of the silent soldier. , Keep your mind unsullied. A foul suggestion, given audience by your permission, may lead you into habits of thought that, persisted in, will debauch your soul. Thought produces habit; habit hardens into character; character makes destiny. Keep clean Inside. It is of immeasurably greater importance that yon should keep the dirt off your soul than off your clothes. Limitations Admitted. "You don't figure on the possibilities of political change as yon used to." "No," replied the old, time expert. "I'm a pretty good prophet, but I am no lightning calculator." Washington Star. NAMES AND FACES. Douglas Marked the Man Ha Wanted to Know Again. "Stephen A. Douglas had the most remarkable memory for faces of any man In public life," declares a correspondent. "Upon the occasion of a visit to Washington on election day In 1880 the late Colonel John W. Forney was discussing tbe election of Garfield over Hancock with Colonel Harmon of Detroit. Colonel Harmon had been mayor of Detroit and prominent In national politics. Harmon and Forney got to talking about earlier politics, aud Harmon related the story of a meeting with Douglas in New York. Douglas bad been nominated In Baltimore by one faction of the Democratic party. Breckinridge was chosen by the other faction in Charleston. When he heard of his nomination Douglas was in New York. He entered the Astor House, then the headquarters for all politicians and the principal hotel in New York, and immediately was surrounded by his political admirers. Among them was Colonel Harmon. The latter, according to the story he told me, put forth his hand and congratulated Douglas on his nomination. ' 'Thank you, ColoneJ narmon replied Douglas. "Harmon was amazed that Douglas should have remembered bis name, for j ne naa met tne 'little giant DUt once, fifteen years before, and then for but a brief period. After a time he returned and asked Douglas how he was able to call him by name. "My dear colonel, said Donglas, 'whenever I meet a man I want to know again I put a mark on him and I never forget "Washington Post

30,000 VOICES! And Many Are the Volets of Richmond People. Thirty thousand voices -What a grand chorus! And that's tbe number of American men and women who are publicly praising poan's Kidney PtlU for relief from backache, kidney and bladder ills. They say it to friends.

They tell it in the home papers. Richmond people are in this chorus. Here's i a Richmond case. John (Joins, blacksmith. 1326 North J G street, Richmond. Ind sajs: " I j have found that Doan's Kidney Pills j live up to the claims made for them. I The action of my kidneys was irregu- j lar. When I stooped I had sharp twinges in the small of my back, j Reading about Doan's Kidney Pills, I j began using them and my trouble soon J disappeared." i Mr. (loins is only one of many Rich- j mond people who have gratefully en- j dorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. If your 1 back aches if your kidneys bother 1 you, don't pimply ask for a kidney remedy ask distinctly for Dean's Kidnay Pills, the same that Mr. Goins had ' the remedy backed by home testi-; moqy. ottc, all stores, r oster-Alilburn : Co., Props., Buffalo, N.

An irascible guest had been sitting at the hotel table about three minutes i and no waiter had come to him, and j when he caught the eye of the head waiter he called him up. "Here," he' said ill naturedly, "I've been wnithig for half an hour for somebody to take my order, aud "nobody has come near! Am I going to be waited on?" "Certainly, sir." "Then I want to know why I have been kept waiting a half hour!" . "Well, sir," explained the waiter, "the man who was on duty when you came in, half an hour ago, has left and won't be bock until tomorrow, and J I only came on duty ten minutes ago. so I don't know the reason." The guest knew he wan being made fun of, but he also knew that bo had been telling a falsehood, so be said no more. St, LouU Globe Democrat Brain Weights. The average weight of a man's brain is forty-six ounces, but it varies largely in different individuals. Usually It Is about one-thirtieth of the body's weight In quadrupeds the relative weight Is remarkably less than it is ln human beings. It is one-one hundred and twentieth In dogs, one-four hundred and fiftieth In horses, oneseven hundred and fiftieth in sheep and one-eight hundredth in tbe ox. thus Indicating a direct relation between weight of brain and Intelligence, the animals named being ranged in the order of their mental capacity and docility. v Reapected His Wiahea.

THE BRITISH CABINET. How Ita Secret Documents Ara Protected and Printed. Each member of the cabinet la sapplied with a key which fits tbe lock of a certain dispatch box retained by the prime minister. At any particular crisis, when Important papers reach liownlng street. the premier, after

perusing them, place them in the dispatch box and hands the bos to a speelal meesenprer, wbo tikes it round to each member of the cabinet in pr.cctsion. Each member cpens it witb his j key and relocks it after he has resd th documents It contains. In this way the papers are prevented fnm frilling into the hands ef stranjrers or members of parliament who are not ln the cabinet.

The document is cut up into many small pieces and distributed among a goodly number of compositors in the government prlrtIdk works, each of whom sets up his little piece, and th !i:t!o piece may represent only a dozen lines of tye. When all the fragment rre In type a highly trusted official collects both the copy and the type and puts the'lattor together.
