The Reporter feels that when the
state legislature sees fit 10 investi-
gate the tradingstamp enterprise by
proposing Legislation against it there
is urgent need of reform. 1t is a
reflection on the judgment of mer-
chant and citizen when they allow
their resources to be drawn upon
for the support of concern which
is of no benefit to the city and
which makes no adequate return
for the money which is indirectly
expended under a delusion that a
premium Is TO be had for nothing.
The disposition of the merchants to
further in their cooperative associ-
alton and boycott all fakes and
schemes presented by smooth gen
tlemen whose income is derived
from the gullibility of the public
may be taken as promise of a bet
terment of business conditions. Lo-
gansport business men have in the
past antagonized their own inter
ests by exercising an undue circum-
spection in the management of their
respective enterprises. They have
come 10 a realization, however, that
cooperation is destined to work 4
great benefit TO every member of
the association as we'll as TO the Gus
toner. Prize-giving as an induce
ment to trade is tribute pure and
simple in every case to foreign
interest and the basic principle of
municipal progress is loyalty to
home industry. Logansport has a
bright future in which business
men will play prominent part.

BILL CUTTING SALARIES.

Representative Bonham Stirs up the state
Omcers
Four of the leading state officers are
very much displessed with bill intro
duced in the house Tuesday afternoon
by Representative Bonbam, fixing the
following salaries: Governor, $1,000;
Secretary of state, $4,000; auditor of
state, $1,000; treasurer of state, $4,000,
attorney general 5000; reporter of the
supreme court, S4,250; superintendent
of public instruction, $1,000; judges of
the supreme court, 5000; judges of the
appellate court, $500.
The bill increases the salary of the
governor 81 900 year; the superin-
tendent of public instruction, $500 q
year; each of the supreme judges, $500
a year; each of the appellate judges,
$50 year.
The objections to the bill are due to
the reductions it makes. Ii reduces
the secretary of states salary $1,000 q
year; the auditor of state, $500; the
attorney general, $4,000 and travelling
expenses; the treasurer Of state, $1,000.
The bill provides that no reduction
shall be made in the salaries of present
state officers.

1t is hopeful sign of the times
that a deeper popular interest is be-
ing taken in state Legislation than
has ever before been the case. In
years gone by the people manifested
scarcely any interest in the bills in
troduced in Legislative assemblies,
except in cases where especial at
tention was directed to the same for
specific reasons. 1t is different now.
Instead of waiting until the legisla-
ture has adjourned and setting up a
howl then, people now make it a
point 10 communicate with their
representative to make their wishes
known IN proper form.

Logansport merchants are follow
ing Anderson IN Kidding themselves
of trading stamps. They are right.
They will save by such action thou
sands of dollars for themselves and
patrons. Every dollar given a
trading stamp company IS that
amount given to a concern that is a
detriment to the city. The money
goes elsewhere-not here. There
should be law prohibiting their
sale IN the state. LogansPort is on
the right road.-Anderson News.

The Daily Reporter has declined
advertising offered by the trading
stamp company in its disposition 10
continue in Logansport despite the
wishes of the business men. 1t is
believed that the citizens may be re-
lied upon to evince the same will
ingness to help the merchants in
their movement by framing from
demanding trading stamps. The
experience of Peru, Muncie, Ander-
son and other Indiana towns is
proof positive of the pernicious
effects of premium giving.-Lo-
