Concerning the question of forti-
flying the proposed canal to connect
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, the
indianapolis Press remarks that
whether we fortify it or not is a
question that will keep, but we do
not want to tie our hands so that we
cannot fortify it, if it becomes ne
cessary. If we build this canal
with our own money, it must be on
our terms and the first of these
should be the right to control and
defend our property. There is little
doubt that the people of this coun-
try will heartily indorse this senti-
ment.

New York trade unions have
started a movement to establish CO.
operative bakeries and furnish bread
to the poor at cost price. The
plan is the outgrowth of war
upon filthy cellar bakeries, which
have multiplied in the slums of the
big city. Already 5000 trades
unionists have agreed to support
the project. and 500 union bakers
will own stock in the cooperative
concerns. If the plan works out, it
is intended to extend the co-opera-
tive idea to many other lines and to
open retail stores in many parts of
the city.

Those South American chaps are
not so far behind the times as we
sometimes think. Recently the
authorities of Argentina had reason
to suspect that great deal of SNUG
CLING was going on through the
mails. An X-ray apparatus was
turned on the foreign mail, and in
the first days work, no less than SO
watches, diamonds and pieces of
jewelry were located in innocent
looking bundles of mail. That was
certainly up-to-date.

to mess to the strains of "Home, Sweet
Home" When the corps broke ranks
after lunch the cadets left for the depot
in high spirits, with much cheering,
and giving their school and company
yells.
In chapel Thursday morning the sup
erintendent spoke to the Cadets of q
possible trip to Washington on the oc-
casion of the inauguration, saying that
9 position of prominence in the parade
had been offered the corps by the COM
mittee on arrangements. 10 the event
of the trip being made these days would
be spent in sightseeing, the whole per-
iod of absence from the academy COW
ering one week. This trip would be
offered in lieu of the regular spring
holiday, the time away from the aca-
DENY and expense incurred by most of
the cadets being about the same in
either case. The cadets cheered the
proposition vociferously.

The minority members of the Assem-
Div and senate met at the Grand hotel,
Indianapolis, Saturday last, got sc-
quainted and discussed various matters
that are likely to be presented al the
coming session.
Apparently the democrats are divided
Oh the primary election law PROPOSE
ton, possibly more being opposed than
as TO affect only the large cities, the
minority might unite on such a propO-
sItion, but the representatives of the
agricultural counties as rule think
there ls no crying necessity for such q
law in their particular localities. They
prefer TO leave the matter discretionary
with the various county committees
Editor Morss, Green Smith and others
are anxious for primary election law.
Frank Burke is Just as emphsticslly
opposed to 1t.
A few of the members favor voting
machines, but the majority seemed to
be opposed 10 the machines because of
the great expense. Some fear that
machinery is not sufficiently reliable
there being constant danger of getting
out of repair.
The minority is likely to oppose the
proposition TO take the election of
county perintendents out of the
hands of the trustees 1t will also in
sist upon rigid and an exacting in
vestigation of our state institutions. 1t
is limited that some sensational facts
will be exposed during the coming ses-
sion relative TO a couple of the state
institutions.
Regarding the selection of the minor.
ity leader in the house, nothing definite
is known at this time. The choice Will
be made on the evening OF January 9,
at the Grand hotel. Representative
Davis, of Green county, is possibility.
He is well known in Southern Indiana
as silver-tOngued orator. He has
silver hair that he refers to occasionally
with a sort of ABE Lincoln" jocosity.
| This is his first term in the emily
and some of the old members don't like
the idea of new man being selected as
leader, though they admit that his
political prominence perhaps eclipses
that of any member of the assembly.
He was at one time nominated for con-
gress, but before the vote could be an
nounced the political machinery got in
its work and one county changed its
vote. Davis was side-trackcd, but later
was rendered the nomination without
opposition. He did not accept it for
fear OF defeat This was in 1896. He
estimated wrongly, as the district went
democratic that year by $500 majority
| Representative Cravins, of Blooming
ton is also possibility. While not as
old man az Mr. Davis and not as
prominent in Indiana politics, he has
this advantage of having been q mem
Der of the last legislature. The old
mem bers will probably insist upon him
or some other member that has served
at q prior session. Mr.. Crsvens is a
