Governor Durbin has determined
upon suspension of all hearings in
regard to pardons ,and paroles until
after the adjournment of the state

The Presidents Address.

President Roosevelt is as fond of
talking of the duties of citizenship as
President Cleveland used to be, and
occasionally the little speeches of Mr..
Roosevelt suggest very strongly those
of his predecessor. In hir talk to the
national guardsmen of New Jersey
the President said that ''a man is of
use as national guardsman for just
exactly the same reasons as he is of
use as citizen, and that is if he sets
to work with his whole heart to do his
duty for the time being. TO
make himself thoroughly prof.
Gent in the Inc of business he
has taken up" This is the thought
that runs through the whole of the
little address. In both military and
civil life the thing is for one to do
ones duty. 1t does not matter what
the duty is. And the qualities that
lead man to do what he ought to do
are the same in the civilian as in the
soldier.
But IL seems to be very hard for
some men to do their duty except in
the presence of an army ofSpectators.
Some how we want the world to know
that we are doing what is expected OF
US. So here, too, there is lesson to
be drawn from the life of soldier.
The President told of man who en-
listed because he wanted to fight, but
was set to the prosaic task of digging
sinks. War is not all parade, and fly
ing banners, and desperate struggle.
1t has it's humble and unromantic
work, which is quite as important as
the fighting itself. 1t is SO in ordinary
life. The President said:
Just as it is in the army SO it is in
citizenship. If you are content to 60
through life waiting for chance to
be hero, you may wait and the
chance may not come. The way to be
good citizen is to do well, the ordi-
nary, every day, humdrum work that
comes to citizenship. indianapolis

Senator Deboe of Kentucky, who,
despite his outward seriousness, is
really perennial well-spring of humor,
tells a good story of an episode down
in Bourbon county in his state.
Il very worthless, common fellow,
who was a common nuisance, was
arrested and brought into court. He
demanded a trial by jury, and the
court ordered that a jury be impanel-
ed. On the next day when the court
met there were gathered in the jury
box twelve of the hardest, most dis
reputable characters in the county.

The anthracite miners now on a
strike say they do not average more
than 15:days' work in month and
their wages do not average over s1.37
a day, while the day laborers get only
90.cents a day. That makes pretty
slim picking for the support of fam
ilv. If these men were sensible and
Independent as they ought to be. they
would quit mining and 60 to farming
or work at something that would give
them good living. So long as men
think they can only do one thing and
strike and fight for places that are
not worth having, they will have to
work for almost nothing. If the min
ers and other employees who do not re-
ceive fair wages would quit work and
90 elsewhere instead of striking, great
corporations would have to pay good
wages. Unions and lack of indie
pendence and individuality make
hard times for working men. The
man who can do only one thing is
poorly equipped for the battle OF lie.

Soy" Neal. insurance clerk in the
auditor of states office. says that
financially the state was a heavy loser
by the death of Glenn Studebaker, the
South Bend millionaire: He figured
this way. Studebaker carried life in
urance policies amounting to $780,
600. 1t is the law that the insurance
companies shall pay per cent tax on
the excess of the premiums over the
losses paid. So while Studebaker
carried the $500, 900 it meant SO, 900 a
year to the state in taxes. Neal says

Ireland Sets Forth the Facts.

Among the prelates of the Roman
Catholic church none is more distinc-
lively American in character, train
ing, and method than Archbishop
Ireland. A jealous churchman, he is
at the same time a jealous patriot.
Alive always to the interests OF his
church, he is never blind to the in
terests of his country.
Unusual significance, therefore, at
tacheS to his recent interview, in
which he rebukes Catholic journals
given to Misrepresentation of Ameri-
can administration in the Philippines,
and cririciseS the conduct of clergy
men and others who commented un-
fairly on Governor Taft'S negotiations
with the Vatican.
Archbishop Ireland is well inform
ed as to what has taken place in Rome
and he is familiar with conditions in
the Philippines. He is confident that
the active cooperation of the Vatican
has been secured in the task of pacifica-
tion in the Philippines. He believes
that Governor Taft has been success
full in his mission to Rome: that he
created the most favorable impression
and that he made the position and
purpose of the government SO clear
that misunderstanding is impossible
The Archbishop declares that the
Pope is satisfied with the situation
and has been greatly impressed with
the American method of dealing with
troublesome questions. He insists
that it is the rankest in justice to init
mate that the government intended
to proselytize in the Philippines. He
truly declares that there has never re-
sided in the white house a man more
fair minded and impartial in religious
matters than Theodore Roosevelt, and
that Governor Taft has not particle
of bigotry in his makeup. He init
mates that Catholics fail somewhat in
their duty when they fail to appre-
ciate the courtesy of President RoOSe-
welt In sending Governor Taft to
Rome. Inter Ocean.

This week s issue of the Reflector,
a weekly PAPER published by the in
mates of the State Reformatory at
Jacksonville, contains and editorial
on prison Contract Labor, in which
1t is argued, first, that union labor is
not and cannot be seriously injured by
prison contract labor is necessary for
the welfare of convictS. EVERY
stroke of a hammer, says the article,
''eyery drop of toil-wrung sweat is a
beatitude to the incarcerated man be-
cause it helps him to fulfill that most
essential requirement of his solitary
exiStence-sel f-fOrgetfulneSS'" The
writer says the abolition of contract
labor without the substitution of some
other means each man locked lin his
cell twenty or twenty-five hours out
of the twenty-four, - with an newt
able tendency to disease and madness.
This presentation of the case is at
least entitled to consideration as COM
ing from a convict.

Army Losses In the Philippines.

The American campaign in the
Philippines against the insurgents ex-
tended over l, ISL days. In this time
our soldiers fought in 1851 engage
ments, an average of two engagements
a day.
In these engagements, or in three
years and three months of service. 80
officers and 936 enlisted men were
killed or died of wounds. lin the three
years, Al officers and 1885 enlisted
men died from disease, officers and
and 257 enlisted men met death in ac-
cidents, 10 officers and - enlisted men
committed suicide, and l officer and
81 enlisted men were murdered.
The total number of deaths was A.
155. Counting the number of men
sent to the Philippines, this is less
than per cent of loss. Counting
killed and wounded there is less than
10 per cent OF loss or the men on duty
or actively engaged.
During the civil war 44.23S men
were killed lin battle, 40, sos died of
wounds, 1921 of disease, 26, 16S
while in prison, the deaths from other
causes, including suicides, bringing
the total up to 213, 900, men, or loss
of about, IL per cent of the men en-
rolled during the war (2.S50.00O. 1t
was estimated that one out of every
siXty-five men in the service during
the civil war was killed in action, one
out of every fifty-six died of wounds
received in action, and one man in
every thirteen died Of disease.
The percentage of deaths from d.
sease in the Philippines is low as COM
pared with the loss of civil war. Con-
sidering the climate, the exposure in
cident to the campaigns in the rainy
season and the prevalence of cholera,
the record is a good one.

our merchants are called upon to give
to charity in the course OF year.
There is scarcely a week that they
are not asked to contribute toward
some object which may be worthy or
may not be, but they will make

who ask these little sums seem to
think that since the merchant lives by

Retiring Generals:

When war was declared in 1898
there were three major generals in the
regular army. Of these Merritt went
to the Philippines, and Brooke be-
came the first military governor of
Cuba.
OF the five brigadier generals in
1898 Otis, promoted TO major general
in the volunteer army became the first
military governor Of the Philippines,
Shafter commanded the army that
first set foot in Cuba, Wade went to
Cuba, Henry to Porto Rico.
OF the major generals commission
ed under act Of April %, 1898, Arthur
Macarthur and John G. Bates went
to the Philippines, while Fitzhugh
Lee. Sumner, Ludlow and Wood went
to Cuba. and Henry w. Lawton,
Joseph Wheeler, and Adna R. Chaffee
went first to Cuba and then to the
Philippines, and Guy V. Henry went
first to Porto Rico, then to Cuba, and
then back to Porto Rico as governor.
Most of these officers, so prominent
and active in the war of 1898, are now
on the retired list. Merritt was
retired On June 16. 1900; Otis on
Marcn %, 1902, and Brooke on Mon
day, July 81. Anderson, Shafter,
Lee, Wheeler, Wheaton, Schwan and
Smith, all of whom saw hard service
in Cuba and the Philippines, have
been retired in the last two years.
Lawton, Henry, Ludlow, and others
of the civil war and Indian war vet
Grams are dead.
In no department of public service
have there been so many recent
changes as in the army. Retirement
from the regular army is compulsory
at the age of "a years, so that we
have on the retired list many men
who, while they have earned in forty
years service the right to rest. are
still equal to all the duties of high
position. These form distinguished
group, including veterans like General
o. o. Howard and Daniel E. Sickles,
as well as officers like Lieutenant Gen.
eral Schofield and Major Generals
Merritt, Otis. and Brooke, men of the
old confederate army likeWheeler and
Lee. and of the old Union army like
Anderson. Wheaton, Wilson and
Smith. In case of war not few of
this group would find their way to the
front, and all would be of service in
an advisory or administrative capaci-
ty..

army next to General Miles is Major

manner of marriage. mode of life,
which is largely under the old patriar-
chal system, as for example, father
who would have ten sons, and all hav-
ing wives picked out for them by the
parents of each family, bring these
daughters-in-law home to live under
