Articles Will Be Printed in - the Order Received. To the Editor: "The recent revelations of vice and graft are enough to make one sick at heart. White slavers should be treated the same as murderers. In fact this Is a worse crime than murder. Any person running such a brutal, loathsome, disease breeding thing as an immoral resort should be given twenty years at hard labor and those who form the foundation of the whole infamous business, the patrons of those resorts, should be dealt with severely and be shunned as moral lepers. , . No man should be nominated or elected to any office who is not bitterly opposed to this whole vice, sickening business. We should begin this year in the city elections and compel every candidate to tell where he stands on this question. We should continue the fight in the county and state and other nominations and elections as they come. Respectable organizations of every kind should help create public sentiment Perhaps we can nominate and elect members of the general assembly, judges, city, county and state officials who are hostile to the white slave traffic and who do not consider the wrecking and debauching of human lives as a good joke and a possible source of wealth. Government by men alone has broken down at this point. Many publio officials, political bosses and business (?) men have grown wealthy through the traffic in vice. Some are . so utterly lacking in moral sense that they seek to justify a traffic that is frightfully disastrous to health and morals and shockingly indecent on the ground that it yields a profit to those engaged in it and to a few others just as they argue on the saloon question. Any person who would seriously use or be influenced by such an argument is utterly unprincipled and morally rotten. Women, as a rule, are interested in the home and individual human welfare. Such a small per cent, of the criminals are women and such a small per cent of the women criminals as compared with the per cent among men and such wonderful progress in cleanliness, morality, and in efficiency and honesty in government have been made in those states where women vote that the rest of the states should hasten to fall in line and give women the ballot. They can be trusted to protect themselves and their daughters from the white slaver, the grafter,, and the resort keeper. F. C. McCormick, Milton, Ind. INTEREST CONTINUES That people have not lost interest In the old fashioned gospel is evident from the Interest taken in the Williams meetings at the Baptist church. The evangelist's methods are not sensational and his interpretation of the gospel is conservative, but it is doubtful whether any movement among our churches in the last few years had had more encouragement from a constantly increasing interest. The attendance last night was the largest of any week night so far. The text was, "They all with one consent began to make excuse." A large number of applicants were approved for membership in the church at the beginning of the service. There was one conversion and two applications for admission by letter at the close of the meeting. The meeting tonight will begin at 7:30. The subject will be "Confession and Influence." SIXTY PER CENT ARE - DRINKERS SAYS FOX That sixty per cent of the inhabitants of Wayne county drink alcohol in some form is the statement of Judge Henry C. Fox of the Wayn circuit court. "Though the number of persons becoming intoxicated is exceedingly smaller, three out of ive persons in this county drink," said the official. Twenty-six states of the United States now require automatic couplers and brakes on railway trains.

The Right Kind of a Senator. Special interests who have grown fat during the years of a high protective tariff are keeping the wires into Washington veryhot these days and are purchasing tickets to the national capital with reckless abandon to register their protests against the proposal now pending in congress, to give the American masses their turn at bat through a revision of the tariff downward. Senator Ashurst of the new state of Arizona is receiving his share of calamity howls from the cattle and wool barons of that commonwealth, and Collier's Weekly calls attention to the frank, patriotic and straight-forward reply he sent to one of his lugubrious constituents. This Ashurst letter is appended: "In asking me to oppose any reduction in the tariff on beef, mutton, cattle, sheep, raw wool, woolen goods, and leather goods you surely must have been under the impression that I was a standpat Republican instead of a progressive Democrat. The Democratic party is committed, so far as faith and honor can bind men, to reduce the tariff on all the necessaries of life ; and I could not take the action you request me to take unless I turned traitor to every principle I have been advocating. . . . Every person in the world is a free trader after he gets his own interests protected. The cattlemen want cattle, meats and hides protected, but want to buy everything else as cheaply as possible. The woolgrowers want wool protected, but naturally desire to purchase everything else as cheaply as they may. The pineapple growers want everything on the free list but pineapples ; the sewing-machine manufacturer wants sewing machines protected and everything else on the free list, and so on down the line. "I am always glad to please my friends in Arizona, but I can not do what you ask. I shall not vote to permit one set of men to make money improperly at the expense of the whole public. No legitimate business should require a gift, bounty, or largess from the Government. If the Democratic party, after the promises it has made to the people to reduce the tariff, should then begin to equivocate, it would be the end and ought to be the end of the Democratic party. "With kindest personal regards, "Yours cordially, HENRY F. ASHURST."

The Case of Herman Coppes. Although the latest word in science is to the effect that heredity extends only to the transmission of physical characteristics, what is to be said of the case of Herman Coppes, the fourteen-year-old Illinois boy who murdered a woman and her two babies because she had objected to Coppes kissing her eleven-year-old daughter? Coppes' grandfather is described as a shiftless, public charge, a man who dissipated a small estate and who now lives in a tent in abject poverty. He married and was the father of several children, one of them the mother of Herman. This woman while not aggressively vicious, was defective mentally and morally, and the boy's father was a dull, careless derelict. There is not the slightest doubt that young Coppes is a degenerate and despite the latest edict of science there appear to be excellent reasons to believe that heredity is mostly responsible for this abnormity. The argument will be advanced that environment is to a great extent responsible for this degenerate, but his period of existence appears to be entirely too brief for. him to have been wholly or in great part influenced by his surroundings. But admitting that both parentage and environment have been responsible for the depravity of Herman Coppes, society cannot dodge its share of the responsibility of the terrible crime of this youth, who has not the mental ability to distinguish between right and wrong: who has no regret for his deed and whose only worry is that he will be kept in a cell when the "fishing is good," and who stands in the middle of his cell and howls like an animal when his meals are not to his liking. ' Is it not a fact that' such abnormities as Herman Coppes are brought into the world because of our lax marriage laws and our indifference to living conditions, frequently so bad that boys endowed with normal minds are influenced to become dangerous enemies of society ?

OPPOSES CHICKENS . AS PETS FOR KIDS (National News Association) CHICAGO, April 23. Hugo Krause, head of the Chicago anti-cruelty society, today began a campaign against the practice of selling tiny chickens to children for pets. Women agents of the society were assigned to investigate reports that hundreds of little chicks, born in incubators, are sold every day to children for playthings. "There is no law that we can Invoke to prosecute the offending dealers," said Mrs. Krause. "We are forced to depend upon the chivalry of those in business." " '"

Heart to Heart Talks By JAMES A. EDCERTON

THE MAN WHO STRIKES FIRST. I have always observed it is these quarter hours that decide the fate oX battle. Napoleon. I owe everything in the world to being always a quarter of an hour beforehand. Admiral Nelson. One of the secrets of most great generals is. that they strike first. This was true of Napoleon. It was also true of General Grant in our own civil war. It was true of Admiral Nelson, the greatest English naval hero. All of as have to fight battles if not with bayonets, then with muscle, brain or moral forces. Competition is a battle, and we are all competing In one way or another. Energy, promptitude and swift action are as necessary In peace as in war. The man wins who goes after a thing while the other fellow is thinking about it Of course, wisdom and common sense must be used. But where one man has lost through rashness ten have failed through procrastination. John Wesley once remarked to a dilatory cab driver, "I have lost ten minutes forever." That is a loss which can never be repaid. There may be other ten minutes, but these never return. Moreover if we get in the habit of procrastinating these others will be lost In the same way. Time is but the opportunity to achieve. We talk of "killing time," but the phrase is a misnomer. All that we kill is our own chances. Time to the wise man is a treasure to be exchanged for other treasuresknowledge, wealth, fame, attainment or service. Time to a fool is but an invitation to folly, a means of self destruction. Time to the idler is a bore. Usually It is safe to Judge a man by the value he places on time It Is a reflection of his own real value. Time Is the one thing we cannot hoard. We must nse it or It escapes us. Some poet has said that opportunity knocks but once on each of our doors, but in reality every moment is an opportunity. Time is the great democrat it comes alike to all. But, neglected, this hourno w returns no more forever. To a Napoleon, Nelson or Grant a quarter hour means the difference between victory and defeat; to all of us it may mean the difference between success and failure. Earlham Note By H.

This is one of the galleries where a leak was found during the recent flood and storms but which has been repaired. The water' in the gallery has not been analyzed up to date, althoug it has been shut off from the general supply. Dr. Davis has a communication at hand from the state laboratory stating that as soon as an analysis is concluded, the results will be forwarded immediately. Dr. Davis contends that it is altogether improbable that anything but a favorable report will be received.

The company as stated in the articles, will manufacture wood products. The incorporators are H. F. Iserman and E. H. Iserman. FOOLISH TEARS Gracious! The house was filled with smoke, and, yet, something was surely burning, burning to a crisp. The odor filled the kitchen, then passed on to the other parts of the house; and at last it sifted into the living-room where a woman sat placidly sewing, and maybe dreaming a little bit. At the first smoky whiff she knew in a flash what had happened. Twas dinner! And to guess how she felt one must have once-upon-a-time dressed a nice, tempting chicken for roasting, given a lot of time and patience to the work and then, when it was just about done, have seen it go up in a cloud of horrid black smoke. When she reached the kitchen she scarcely could find her way for the smoke, and chicken, pan and all, were completely undone. And what do you suppose she did? It is a shame to tell what happened then, because well, because. But it would not be a true recital if the next step were omitted, and this story is as true as true can be. She gathered up the whole blackend debris and flung it aside, then rut her head in her hands in a weak, womanish way and cried and cried and cried yes, she did. The few who saw her called her very foolish to be overwhelmed by so trifling a thing, nothing but a little mess of pottage, just one simple accident, nothing more. And though they did not say it, they thought she had not grown very big, after all. For what would she do if something real and terrible should happen, something to cry about? The foolish tears went on falling, and all the things that were said never saved a tear; but while the drops were gathering and falling, the "something real" and fairly serious became a part of the scene. For one of the few who stood around, in the hurry of getting the wreckage out of the way, was badly burned. And then the weeping Niobe forgot that she was "all tears," forgot the cause of her woe, forgot everything in the need of being useful. The woman who weakly lamented and shed briny tears over a foolish little chicken was the one who set all her wits a-working when the time was ripe for action. It was she that applied the remedies, she that was cool and collected, she, that did all the bidding. An her helpless little audience thought If the tears are just on. the surface and if down below there is something deep and strong that will help her rise to the occasion when the accastion calls, then let her have her little f And if the tears, undignified, unsightly, unwomanly as they certainly BETTER THAN MEDICINE Breathe Hyomel and Be Rid of Catarrh Clears Stopped-up Head. Nature has a remedy for catarrh and troubles of the breathing organs, a treatment that Is far better than dosing the stomach with medicine. It is the healing oils and balsams of Hyomel which medicates the air you breathe, reaching the most remote air cells in the nose, throat and lungs, killing the catarrhal germs, and restoring health to the mucous membrane. In using Hyomel you are treating your catarrhal troubles with the natural remedy, for it gives a curative air bath to the air passages. It has a powerful healing and antiseptic effect similar to the air In the mountains where the forests give off the fragrant and healing balsams. Hyomei has benefited so many sufferers of the worst cases of catarrh, with offensive breath, raising of mucus, frequent sneezing, droppings in the throat and spasmodic coughing that it is sold under an absolute guarantee to refund the money if it does not do all that is claimed for It. If the treatment does not help you, there will not be a penny's expense, while if it cures the cost is nominal. A complete Hyomei Outfit sells for only $1.00.

are at times, can ease up the tension of things and can furnish an outlet for feelings harrowed by life's mishaps, little and big, let those who will sweep away the barrier to peace by "crying it out." It looks sort of strong and stoical and self-contained to crowd back one's "idle tears" and to hide, if one can, all the manifestations of woe in the heart, because the world has troubles of Its own and Is looking, always looking, for the brave hearts: the true hearts, with their smiling, cheery faces. It does not want any added burdens. But tears, unlovely as they look and as they are, do not always Brand for a weak and fearsome heart. Generally they gather and fall because nerves have been played and played upon and must give 'way, else spirits have been torn beyond their strength to bear. One would suggest, however, that when the big, sad drops well up and overflow, it is high time to run to cover and have it out alone. As for me, the tears can be excused, accounted for and many things else, so long as a sturdy, dependable-looking woman will refrain from calmly announcing that she just "had a good cry." If she must weep, let her weep by her lone and keep, if she can, the sad fact to herself: at least, let her refrain from publishing it. Because it takes us back to those "good old days" when women were supposed to weep and faint upon the slightest provocation, and sometimes upon none at all, for it was so very "genteel you know.
