(DEMOCRATS UNABLE TO STEMTHE TIDE Phe Progressive Party Movement Brings Effective Results.

ATTITUDE OF LABOR Toward Compensation Bill Bull Moose Footprints Are Shown. (Palladium Special) ' INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 31. For prompt and effective results the Progressive party movement o? the late campaign promises to eclipse any similar movement in the history of Indiana politics. When it was known that Beveridge had beaten Durbin and Roosevelt had beaten Taft in the November election the result was hailed as a victory of great importance and and bearing both by Progressives and Democrats. After thirteen days of the sixtyeighth session of the Indiana General Assembly the impress of the Progressive party movement in Indiana i9 even more apparent. The tendency of the Democratic legislature is decidedly and emphatically progressive, however far it may fail ultimately to give the people the free measure of relief demanded. Under the banners of the Lord, the Armageddonites fought a valiant fight and the power of their propaganda of industrial and social Justice has, at least, been more immediate than the original gospel. Balk as they may at the initiative, referendum and recall, the Democrats are not able to stem the popular tide In their favor and before the session Is finished they will be compelled to go on record against them even though a considerable element of the Democratic party is favorable. The drift Is seen In the provision the party will make probable tor a constitutional convention. The postponement" of a convention until 1915, after the people have had an opportunity to say whether they want a convention is Inspired not by any doubt in the minds of the legislators that the people do want constitutional revision, but by the policy of retrenchment and the unpreparedness of the state to meet the expenses of a convention forthwith. Gov. Ralston is heartily in favor of a constitutional convention and only the condition of the state's finances will prevent his insistence that the convention be called by the legislature of 1913. The Stotesenburg bill providing for a vote on the question of calling a constitutional convention in the general election of 1914 probably will be passed.. It is practically assured that the general assembly will pass a public Utilities bill with teeth in it. The bill drafted by a committee selected by Gov. Ralston is practically identical with the Shively bill which is copied from the Wisconsin act. This bill will he introduced in the house today by Rep. Spencer, Democratic floor leader. The unsophisticated may wonder why the Shively bill was cast aside for another bill almost identical with it. The reason lies in the fact that Sen. Shively Is not extremely popular with the powers in control of legislation and it was sought to deprive him of the credit for authorship of the successful measure. The bill will probably bear the name of Rep. Spencer. Confers With Taggart. Edgar A. Perkins, president of the Btate Federation of Labor, held a conference with Thomas Taggart yesterday regarding the workman's compensation bill expoused by union labor. Very probably this bill will oe the basis of the measure passed. It was written by Henry W. Bullock, union labor attorney, and A. G. Cavins, counsel for the Indiana Manufacturers and Shippers association. The blue sky bill drafted by W. W. Hornbrook, representing Indianapolis Investment houses, appears to have the best chance of passage. This bill would HYOMEI Will End CATARRH You've tried Ointments, Sprays and Douches and Failed, now Breathe this .Balsamic, Germ Destroying Air. Why bother with makeshifts?

Scene From "The Cat and the Fiddle" license all corporations and salesmen offering securities for sale. The foreign corporations act probably will be amended to require a detailed statement of assets and liabilities in the reports made to the secretary of state. ! Similar reports will be required from domestic corporations in the blue sky act. I The Hughes road bill seems to have I struck a snag among the farmer mem- ; bers of the legislature, but Gov. RalBton still insists that a material measure of reform in the road laws is expected. The passage of the Sands brothers' pension act was a distinct victory for the progressives. Although the bill is liable to have rough sledding in the senate it is not without the range of probability that it will become a law. Sen. Stotesenburg's bill providing for commission form of government for fifth class cities in all probability will pass the house. It has already passed the senate. All of which shows the foot prints of the Bull Moose. The Democrats seem determined to give the people what they want as exemplified in the enormous Progressive vote November 5. Any contrary disposition is yet to develop. LEPROSY IN INDIA. The "Untouchables" Reach the Lowest Depths of Human Woe. The "untouchables" of India reside In little huts made of palm leaves or mud. without windows, and with a single doorway, usually so small that even a child must stoop in order to enter it. containing absolutely no furuiture. except a few rudely baked earthen pots and pans. Generally there is no bedstead of any kind, the whole family sleeping huddled up on the bare dirt floor, which is commonly plastered with cow dung. A few rags cover their persons, and these are worn night and day. Their financial condition precludes eating more than one meal a day, and this oftener than not Is far from hunger appeasing and Is seldom calculated to appeal to the palate. For this wretched existence they must work bard and long hours. On account of the filthy condition in which they live disease is rampant among them. According- to the last census, eighty-eight out of every 100.000 people of the depressed classes are afflicted, with leprosy. . In the matter of education they are as deficient as they are in every other virtue. According to the report of the director general of public instruction of Hornbay, barely five out of 1.000 of the pnrlah children of the presidency of school going age attend school. In one word, these fifty-three odd millions of Hindus are not only socially but also intellectually, physically, financially and morally submerged. Saint Nthal Singh In Southern Workman.

She appears as the mischievous daughter of a Hungarian family, who schemes to marry oft her three elder sisters. The book is by Edith Ellis, from the famous Hungarian comedy, "The Seven Sisters," while the music is by the new composer, Charles J.

It appears that hardly one of the great m the phalanx of nodding Hon: tpes. First comes Thiers i. i with "Throughout the day torrents of rain poured down, and twenty thousand Auistrians bit the dust!" The weighty and erudite lawyer. M. Troplong, proclaims in one of his somber tomes that "In the midst of many crumbling institutions that of property stands erect on its feet, seated upon Justice!" The pen of the famous critic. Francisque Sarcey, had its frequent lapses. "On his helmet waves a missing plume!" and "In the tones of Mile. Ugalde one recognizes her mother's familiar hand!" for example. M. Toussenel. journalist, naturalist and historian, has a sentence, no doubt, of profound ethnographical interest which might perhaps have been phrased otherwise: "The English and Russian nations, the two greatest powers in the world, are precisely those in which the man makes the greatest efforts to resemble the woman the Englishman by shaving himself daily, the Russian by puffing out his chest!"

Growing Children Heed Good Bowels

GIVE A MILD LAXATIVE OCCASIONALLY TO INSURE REGULAR BOWEL ACTION As a child grows older it requires more and more personal attention from the mother, and as the functions of the bowels are of the utmost importance to health great attention should be paid to them. Diet Is og great importance, and the mother should watch the effect of certain foods. A food will constipate one and not another, and so we have a healthy food like eggs causing biliousness to thousands, and a wholesome fruit like bananas constipating many. It is also to be considered that the child is growing, and great changes are taking place in the young man or young woman. The system has not yet settled itself to its later routine. A very valuable remedy at this stage, and one which every growingboy and girl should be given often or occasionally according to the individual circumstances, is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This is a laxative and tonic combined, so mild that it is given to little babies, and yet equally effective in the most robust constitution. At the first sign of a tendency to constipation give a small dose of Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring, and prompt action will follow in the morning. It not only acts on the stomach and bowels but its tonic properties build up and strengthen the system generally. Mrs. Henry Babler, Van Dyne, Wis., writes that her little son. Melvin Babler, was constipated most of the time until eh gave him Dr.

"They" were chatting in the smoking room of a little Konlnklijke Pnketvanrt Maatschappij coaster, on a two mouths' run among the islands below the equator, when some one sneaking at the Malay peninsula some one else said. "My lmpressiou of the Straits Settlements can be summed up in a single picture a strong u.'aek man, standing in the center of a muddy stream, trying to split a rock with a shirt." Now this always provokes a laugh; it is venerable and infallible. But to my surprise, said Frederick S. Isham. the novelist, one of the smoking room contingent, on this occasion it partially failed. What was the trouble? The delinquent, the one man out of Beven who didn't laugh, was sallow, saturnine and English. "What's the matter, old chap?" asked the novelist. "Don't you see the poiut or are you waiting until tomorrow to wake up to it?" The other man turned bis bead wearily. "See the point?" he said sadly. "1 should think 1 did. 1 ought to. I," tragically, "am the man who owned the shirt." Then we, knowing he had lived twenty-five years in the orient, became silent; our laughter ceased. A sympathetic melancholy descended upon us. Englishman or not, we took him to our heart of heart 3 and made a brother of him. Baltimore American. Jokablo Relatives. One of the curious social customs practiced by the Crow as well as by many other Indian tribes is the "mother-iu-law taboo" that is to say, a man is under no circumstances permitted to hold conversation with bis wife's mother. Another strange regulation is that relating to the playing of practical jokes. A man Is not permitted to jest with any one be pleases, but is limited to the individuals whose fathers belonged to the same clan as his own father. Within this group, however, practically any liberty Is allowable. If a man discovers that a "jokable relative" has committed some foolish or disgraceful act be can publicly twit him with it, and the person derided must not get angry, but bide his time for some favorable opportunity to retaliate.

WILL INVESTIGATE POLICE BRUTALITY

(National News Association) CHICAGO. Jan. 31. Investigation of police third degree methods began today at the order of Chief of Police McWeeney, folloming a formal complaint made to him by a man arrested as an auto bandit suspect and later released. The suspect, Fred Haas, a telegraph operator, was so severely beaten and kicked by officers seeking to secure a confession from him that he found it impossible to work for two days. It is alleged that the third degree was administered by two patrolmen in the office of Lieut. Morrlssey. The report says no interference was made by any of the police present. William Kirk, a real estate man, was arrested because the rear lights of his automobile were not lighted and told the chief of the affair. He saw the patrolman, he said, standing over Haas and kicking. It was not until Haas complained that anything was done. Crushed fruit Strawberry Ice Cream made from fresh, ripe berries at Price's. advertisement It Fissures In the Rockies. In some of the high plateaus or mesas of the Rocky mountains there are to be found a short distance from the edge cracks or fissures not more than four feet wide and often as much as eighty feet deep. During the terrific blizzards that rnge in the winter these crevices are filled to the level, and cattle and horses which are not acquainted with the country frequently drop into them, their struggles only causing them to sink defier and deeper. The cracks, into which the sun never penetrates, are like refrigerators, and the hapless brutes, when death has come to their relief, become to all intents and purposes mummies. A Close Student. The late Gold win Smith, writing for the Nineteenth Century, recalls that Robert Lowe, afterward Lord Sberbrooke. was so nearsighted that when be was reading his nose literally touched his book.

SEEK PROTECTION FOR WILD BIRDS

(National News Association) WASHINGTON. Jan. 31. Dr. William Hornaday of the New York Zoological society, and T. Gilbert Pearson of New York, secretary of the national association of Audubon Societies, appealed to the house ways and means committee today to revise the tariff so as to prevent the importation of plumage of any North American iUl birds. SPANISH LAW. The Snub It Gave a British Consul In Cuba Some Years Ago. The haphazard character of Spanish law is well illustrated by the following case: Some years ago a young English sailor, accompanied by an American and an Irish sailor, went on shore at Havana. When returning to their ships they were attacked by Chinamen. The American struck one of the Chinamen on the head with a stick, and the man died. Tbe Spanish authorities did not trouble to discriminate, but sentenced .the three men to two years Imprisonment. Tbe British consul, being unaccustomed to Spanish ways, took up the case of the Englishman very strongly. Tbe authorities thereupon, possibly to teach blm a lesson, tried the men over again and gave them twenty yean each. The Englishman after three years In a Cuban prison, during which time his companions died of yellow fever, was transferred to Centa to serve the remainder of his time. After some yean he and a fellow prisoner, a Spaniard, escaped, but they were recaptured. The food provided In the convict prison of Ceuta consists of two meals a day of garbauzos chick peas occasionally flavored with a tiny bit of salt pork, a remarkably healthy If not appetizing diet, and the Englishman came out of prison In particularly good health. Aft' er hit twenty years' nnjnst imprisonment he married a 8panlah woman. London Faintly Herald. GOVERNOR WILSON CAN BREATH EASY (National News Association) WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.
