ItHYAN TUCK TO THK FAITH

He Advises New %'ork Itemocrats to

Support Hears!.

A strong endorsement of William Randolph Hears!’s candidacy for Governor of New York appears in Mr. Bryan’s paper, the “Commoner.” He says in part: “The people in New A'ork will learn long before the close of the campaign that this contest is not between Charles E. Hughes and William R. Hearst: the question is whether the affairs of New York state government are to be administered for the public benefit or with an habitual disregard for the public in-

terest.

“Whatever we may believe of Mr Hughes's personal disposition and probable action with respect to great public evils, there can be no reasonable doubt of Mr. Hears!. Through the efforts of his great newspapers he has proved his fidelity, and, if proof be lacking, we find it in the fact that the representatives of those interests whose purpose is to defy the law an.1 plunder the people are among his most bitter opponents. “It is somewhat singular that among the first to charge that Mr. Hearst is not a Democrat are those who either bolted the Democratic ticket, or grew cold and distant whenever the party prepared for a serious campaign against monopoly. “In 1896. when loyalty to the party was tested, William R. Hearst supported the ticket most heartily, and anyone who now challenges him must have a better standing than the man who habitually bolts when the great corporations fail to control."

People who lived in the north pari of ;.he county before 1850 will well remember Abner R. Hyde who ran a general store at the town of Carpentersvllle. Before the Motion Railroad was built the business part of Car^pentersville was along the now gravel road and it was there that Mr. Hayde had his pretentious store and sold goods to the people wtio blazed the way for civilization. Mr. Hyde left Carpentersville in 1S50 and moved to Indianapolis and engaged in the hotel business. Every one who ever visited Indianapolis during the war remembered Mr. Hyde as his place was the stopping place for every Putnam county man who went to the capitol. The Indianapolis Star has the following account of his death and his life after moving to that city: Abner R. Hyde, 8 4 years old, one of the last of the old-time hotel men of the city, died at the horn'' of his adopted son, Nelson J. Hyde, 1906 North Capitol avenue, yesterday afjternoon. after a long illness. On Aug. II Mr. Hyde suffered a stroke of paralysis, and a second stroke came Sunday afternoon. Following tlie latter attack he did n it regain consciousness, dying early yesterday afternoon. For nearly sixty years Mr. Hyda had been a resident of the city and during that time was one of the best known hotel keepers in the state. He came to.Indianapolis about 1850 and four years later purchased the Little Hotel, which stood at New Jersey and Washington streets, and which at that time was one of the most prominent hotels in the city. During the ensuing ten years Mr. Hyde conducted the hotel, and during the civil war It was the gathering place of military men who were in the city from time to time. There were many important meetings hald behind its doors and the hotel sheltered many famous men. Mr. Hyde also engaged in buying and selling horses during the civil war, selling thousands of animals to the Government. He also sold horses to street car companies and he built one of the first livery stables on east Washington street. l.ater Mr. Hyde assumed charge of the National Hotel on south Illinois j street and for three years conducted a hotel at Franklin. In 1870 he opi ened the Capitol House, on west Washington street, conducting it a short time, and then again buying the place in 1S80, conducted it until

But

during the two years spent in dose 'touch with the law and its workings I have been converted, and I consider now that the indeterminate sentence law is one of the trlumps of legislai tion in the state of Indiana. It is a

great step in advance,

j “Much that was said at the meeting of the State Bar Association against the law and its workings

was said through prejudice. “Tiie result of the indeterminate

Sentence law depends much upon its administrators, and it is not true that an old offender can escape the law by not Infracting any of the rules of the penal Institution In which he Is being held. No good behavior in the case of an old offender is an excuse for his being turned loose upon society again to repeat his fornrer oN fenses. The indeterminate sentence law does not shorten the term of time served by a prisoner, but in reality lengthens it. Tiie length of j the term that a prisoner under conviction of this law must serve in the penal institution is entirely in the

hands of the board of parole.

“Under the workings of the indeterminate sentence law. 30 per cent, of the criminals now turned out of our penal institutions make good

citizens.

“A remarkable thing it is that the judge of the circuit court should ask, as one did at the State Bar Association meeting: ‘Suppose that a prls-
