The farmers of Indiana seem TO have
been forsaken by card sharps and monte
men and in their stead the lightning-rod
swindlers have appeared in force. From
the northern part csnecial1v
this last-named gentry seem
to be particularly prolific one
oc them enters farm house and
agrees for a few dollars to put lightning
reds the farmers house and barn
The latter signs a seemingly harmless
contract and later on he finds that he
has put his name to a note for several
hundred dollars or to a paper that calls
for similar amount of money. Look
out for the lightning-rod sharpers.

Of the debt. The payments thus far
have been made from the savings in the
general fund. We would call the atten-

fact that the democrats of Indiana have
shown their ability 10 handle finan-

Attorney General Smith did an excel
lent thing in calling the attention OF the
supreme court TO the miserable quib-
bling and Inconsistency of the railroads
that are contesting the constitutionality
of the Indiana tax law. In reality the
railroads are assessed here as they have
always been assessed. with the excep-
ton that in the first assessment under
the new law there was an honest eff
fort TO assess them at their real value.
There is no way to assess the value Of
interstate lines except to ascertain the
total value and pro-rate it. Our statute
has always required that principle TO be
followed as between countries, and the
supreme court has repeatedly decided
that 1t was the equitable system to
adopt as between states, when assess
ments are made on gross earnings.

ed as a particularly happy one. It is

Yet, after all. that is what the republican
press and the republican leaders have
been trying TO bring about They have
done everything in their power to spread
and increase the panic. TO prevent the
restoration OF confidence and the re-
sumption or business. They have painted
the commercial situation in the darkest
colors, have sought to depreciate the
national credit and magnify the distress.
They have. throughout. worked on the
principle that it were better to ruin the
country than to have the republican
party out of power. Governor McKinley's
remark is full Of truth but utterly de-
void of patriotism.

ROYAL EucIswheat..

For generations il has been the GUS
tom to mix the batter for buckwheat
cakes with yeast or emptyings, retain
ing portion of the batter left over
from one morning to raise the cakes
for the following day.
III kept too warm, or not used
promptly, this batter becomes excess
sively sour and Objectionable. Buck
wheat cakes raised by this means are
more often sour or heavy than light
and sweet. If eaten daily they dis
tress the stomach and cause skin erup.
tions and itchings.
Instead of the old fashion way, we
have been making bucl1wheat cakes
this winter with Royal Baking Pow
der, mixing the batter fresh daily.
and find the result wonderfully
satisfactory. They are uniformly light
and sweet, more palatab bic and whole
some, and can be eaten continuously
without the slightest digestive incon-
venience. Besides they are mixed and
baked in a moment, requiring no time
