IT is not unlikely that events of the
next two or three years will furnish
very gratifying proof of the splendid
possession which Indiana has in her
natural gas. This cheap fuel gives the
natural-gas region an immense advan-
tage over any other manufacturing dis
trict in the country. This advantage is
so great that some manufacturing in
dustries which. in other parts of the
country, are dependent on protection for
their very existence, can be carried on
profitably in the gas region without pro-
lection. This exceptional condition may
inure immensely to the advantage of
Indiana by causing a rush of manu-
featuring industries to this State which
could not exist elsewhere under tariff
for revenue only. The abundance,
cheapness and apparent inexhaustibility
of this unequaled fuel supply may thus
give Indiana precedence as manufact-
uring State over any other section of the
COuntry

The 20S inspectors in this county have
impeded rather than expedited the work
of canvassing. Again, the ballots could
be sent to county clerks by express in
stead of paying "a messenger to come
for them. The ballots are twice as
large as they need be, which more
than doubles the cost of advertising.
The ink dauber. called by courtesy a
stamp, is popularity of Indiana. In
Massachusetts,, Illinois. Ohio and most.
if not all, the States where blanket
ballot has been adopted, pencil is used
for marking. Why not make that
change in the Indiana law in this
respectf A voter who, under ordinary
circumstances. is familiar with lead
pencil, necessarily takes double the time
to prepare his ballot with the so-called
stamp. with which nobody is familiar.
The change would remove all danger of
daubing. which has been made o pre-
text to throw out hundreds Of votes,
and, at the same time. would enable the
voter to prepare his ballot in much less
time, thereby making it possible to en-
large the precincts in the cities, where
it would be possible, without including
so much territory as to incommode the
voter. In a number of Republican pre-
cincts in this city the number of men
voting was hundred in excess of the
limit of the law, yet while those who
went early in the day waited for time,
In every instance nearly the whole vote
was polled before 3 o'clock. These are
few suggestions for the Improvement
of law whose essential features con-
stitute valuable reform, and which
should not be made unpopular by its
costliness and its cumbersome features.
