Commenting on the effort of the Indianapolis newspapers to start a boom £or Congressman Crumpaeker for Governor the Kokomo News has the-following: The Indianapolis News, seconded by the Indianapolis Journal, is endeavoring to work up a boom for Congressman Crumpaeker for Governor, but the effort in that direction will fail as they should fail. The mere fact that Mr. Crumpaeker declined to vote for the Porto Rican taiiff bill while his colleagues voted for it, is no evidence that the people of Indiana are with him, all of which he and his friends will learn to their sorrow should his name be sprung in the State convention. If the Indianapolis News aud Journal would take a little paius to investigate they would see that the shores of the political sea are strewn- with the wrecks of statesmen who imagined themselves bigger than their party. Poor old Joe Cheadle tried it, and where is be. He was followed by Henry U- Johnson, and where is Henry U. Johnson? Neither of these gentlemen can tell to save their lives where they are “at,” and neither party will claim them or have anything to do with them, and their condition should be a warning to Mr Crumpaeker not to carry his boasted independauce too far if he expects to continue as a factor in public affairs: - Logansport Journal In the United States the firstclass passenger fares last year averaged 2.14 cent 3 per mile. In England the first-class fare is four cents per mile; the third-class for vastly inferior service is two cents per mile; in Prussia the service is two cents per mile; in Austria 305 cents per mile and in France 3.36 cents per mile.

The Commercial State Bank.

Hangs up a neat sign to the effect that they are protected by a policy in the Bankers Mutual Casualty Company. This refers to an insurance issued by the Company to the Bank, indemnifying it from loss that may be caused by a burglary or robber} of the bank, and secures the bank and its patrons from the danger of loss from that score. The Company issuing the policy pays the loss occasioned and in addition to this, money protection, the Company has an efficient detective service which is at once put on the track of a crimi nal who interfere with any bank holding a policy in this company, and bringing ’he burglar or robber to bay and trial regardless of the timi or effort required. Punishment is sure to overtake any persons who attacks the bank in the way of burglary or robbery. -The j patrons ol the bank, can reu.iiiyqsee the great merit of such protection
