' Entered at the Post Office at Richmond, Indiana, as See ond Class Mall Matter. Railroad Rates. Editorially the Indiana Times says: In Monday's Times was printed a communication from Theo. F. Thieme, a Fort Wayne manufacturer, in which he opposed any action of the legislature looking toward the raising of the passenger rate from 2 cents a mile to 2V& cents a mile. Today the Times prints a reply to Mr. Thieme by C. E. Whicker. Each gentleman, like the lawyer, is all on one side or all on the other. It certainly is not acceded by the commercial interests of the United States that the war is the cause of the financial stagnation, because the industrial situation was bad enough, and constantly growing worse before the European war was even a dream in the minds of the American people. It is an easy matter to argue against allowing the common carriers an increase of 25 per cent in passenger rates, forgetting that the people first reduced that rate 33 1-3 per cent. That action was an experiment. The experiment has not worked well for the worker's dinner pail. Facts are stubborn things, but they are more convincing than theories. Theory is a beautiful picture to the idealist. The will of the people is sovereign, but if that sovereign power is abused the people only cut

the thread that lets the ax fall on their own heads. What cares the laborer, or the merchant, or the manufacturer of Indianapolis, about paying a reasonable fare if conditions are brought about to keep money moving instead of tied up? How much longer do the people want to continue this experiment and prolong the agony of a cold house and an empty cupboard? What makes a live town but unity of action on the part of its citizens for all that is good and beneficial on the plan that what helps, the town is good for all its people. Railroad corporations are not private parties. They must be subject to the control of the people and there is where the people become an active directorate. Their action may be for weal or for woe. If they find their administration has been ill advised they have but to reconsider and retrace their steps to that point where general prosperity is assured. Why Not? In the anti-lobby bill now pending in the state legislature there is a section which provides that newspapers in supporting or opposing measures introduced in the assembly must state whether they are receiving remuneration for advocating or opposing such bills. Possibly, if there is to be a drastic and effective anti-lobby law, such a requirement should be written into it. Unfortunately there have been newspapers whose attitude toward pending legislation in the state legislature has been influenced by monetary considerations. An unscrupulous newspapers, if it so desires, can wield a more malign influence than any lobbyist or group of lobbyists by coloring Its statements in such a way as to give the impression that its attitude toward a measure is a reflection of public opinion. And, after all, public opinion is dreaded by the politician beyond his greed for personal gain.

Miss Elizabeth Stanley and gentleman friend of Hagerstown, and Miss Lee of Modoc were given an oyster supper Sunday night by Mrs. Clara Chamness. . Mr. and Mrs. Charley Balllnger and children of Carlos City visited Mr. and Mrs. George Balllnger Sunday. Pete Beckman and Harry Cain ate dinner Tuesday with Mr. and Mrs. Gue Weyl. Mrs. Bessie Edwards entertained her mother, Mrs. Thomas Fralser at dinner Tuesday. The Forum Articles contributed for this column must not be in excess of four hundred words. The identity of all contributors must be known to the editor. Articles will be printed in the order received. Editor Palladium: In reply to Post, master Beck's criticism of the condition of the township roads, which he makes' of a sweeping nature, will say that if he should travel the roads of our township he will find them in much better condition than the parts of the National Road I have seen, wihcb is under the charge of County Highway Superintendent W. O. Jones. Also why doesn't County Highway W. O. Jones, be a bit more specific in his charges of "petty graft," as that is not only a fling at the township supervisors, but at the honesty of every farmer who works the roads. Why doesn't County Highway Superintendent W. O. Jones name some of the "petty grafters" who have been flooding his office clamoring to admit that his charges were so very, very true. Then too, County Highway Superintendent W. O. Jones made the statement that every supervisor who has become efficient in his work is defeated at the election when he runs again for office. I wish to take exception to that statement as our district supervisor has been re-elected to his third term of office. And as to his efficiency, will say that I have never been able to discover many points difference in their efficiency, only that one gets the applause and the other doesn't. Then too, County Highway Superintendent V. O. Jones, made a slight mistake in his figures. We get $3.00 a day for teams and $1.50 for shoveling in township work and $3.50 for teams and $2.00 for shoveling in county work. We have a two mile stretch of road south and three north that was to be vastly improved under the new ruling of more grading and less gravel. Well, we have the "more grading," alright; great lumps of sod torn up and left lying along the roadside and from two to three inches drop to the foot, leaving the road in fine condition for every little shower to start gutters from the crown to the side ditches. If that is really good road engineering then I have no more to say. W. R. M'KEE. Greensfork, Ihd., R. R. 22.
