Decrease of Pauperism.

The figures of Secretary Butler, of
the board of state charities, show a
most gratifying diminution of pauper-
ism in the state, or perhaps it would
be better to say a most gratifying in
dication of increasing wisdom in grant
ing poor relief. The number of per-
sons receiving state aid last year was
30. 900 less than in 1897, and the re-
duction in the cost is well-nigh $780,
600. But study Of the statistics
shows that many counties have still
much to learn. The average per cap
tia cost of poor relief for the whole
state is 9 cents. But in Wayne cOun-
ty-which is one of the richest and
most prosperous counties in the state
the per capita cost is % cents.
Other counties make nearly as bad a
showing. OF course, there is only one
INTERMEDIATE that is. that in these
counties many people are helped that
do not deserve help. The authorities
in these counties should study the
methods followed in other counties
that dispense their charity more dis

CONGRESSMAN STEELE DEFEATED
Fred Lands Nominated Thursday on
the l0l2th Ballot.

Frederick K Lands. of LoganSport
at 2:30 O'Clock Thursday afternoon
was nominated for congress by the re-
publicans Of the Eleventh district,
thus concluding the biggest and most
bitterly fought convention ever held
in the state.
The convention opened at Wabash
Wednesday with 10000 people pres
ent. The candidates named were
Fred Lands, of Logansport; DIR. Chas.
HI. Good. of Huntington: Cary E..
Cowgirl, of Wabash, and Major G. w.
Steele, of Marion.
1t remained in session until a. M.
Thursday when the 920th ballot was
taken with no nomination having been
made. Adjournment was taken until
IL O'Clock Thursday morning. Upon
resumption of the convention ballot
ing was recommended, and on the
l0l2th the Huntington delegates who
had stood firmly for Good, swung to
Lands support. Even with this gain
of strength the result was not deter
mined until Wabash threw 20 votes to
the Logansporter, thus cinching the
nomination.
When the result was announced the
convention went wild and gave the
nominee rousing ovation.
1t was the field against Steele from
the first until the last ballot. Up to
the 100Oth ballot the vote stood Steele
50, Good 30, Cogwill 30, Lands 25.
Then the break came. Cogwill got at
one time 63 votes and on 1OO9th bal
lot Good get IS votes.
When it became apparent that nei-
ther Good nor Cogwlll could get the
nomination majority of their sup
porters went to Lands giving him 70
votes on the last ballot. Steele had
55 votes on the final ballot.
Steele has represented the district
for twenty years. 1t has republican
majority of 1000.

This Company Has a Soul.

The Chicago and Milwaukee Elec-
trio Railway Company Friday in the
Lake county courts established a pre-
cedent for corporations. In con-
domination suit verdict of 5000 was
given against the company, but in
order to show that there was no i'll
feeling in the matter Vice President
A. G. Frost of Chicago telephoned his
counsel to give the defendant $1,000,
the sum which the company had at
first offered but which had been re-
jected.
The defendant was Peter Duba, who
owns a farm near Libertyyille. The
Chicago and Milwaukee Electric is
building spur from Lake Bluff to
Libertyville and the route passes
through Duba's farm. He wanted
1000 to allow the company to cross
his place and suit was begun. The
actual value was fixed at 500 by the
Jury.

What a Good Newspaper Did.

The recent sale of the Philadelphia
Record for 50, 1854. 900 as a business
Investment for its purchaser shows
tie enduring value of good newspa-
PER property. A few years ago when
the Chestnut-street National Bank. of
Philadelphia, failed, in which Mr..
William M. Singerly, proprietor of the
Record, owned a controlling interest,
the paper became involved with the
bank and was turned over to it as an
asset. For some years 1T has been
operated by the receiver of the bank
and trust company SO successfully
that it paid off the liabilities of the
bank, repaid certain stockholders
$3.50, 900 which they had been assess
ed, paid dividend to the stockhold-
ers at large, earned about $500, 900
for the trust company, and is now
sold for 50, 1874, 900. This is an excep-
tional case, as not every national bank
that fails can have the assistance of a
good newspaper to help it out.

SOLDIER TO SOLDIER.

There were present at theRocklsland
meeting of the Illinois G.. A. R., gen.
erals, colonies, captains, lieutenants,
and privates. There were present
democrats and republicans conspicuous
in public and business life, and men
representing every shade of political
convention and religious belief. 1t
was typical gathering of old soldiers
and this was the greeting sent to the
American soldiers in the Philippines:
The veterans of 1861, well knowing
the circumstances that surround their
comrades of the United States army
now in the Philippine islands, and be-
ing we'll advised of all the charges
that have been brought against them,
take this opportunity of expressing
our confidence in their patriotism,
bravery, and loyalty to the flag, and
that with them the quality of mercy
goes hand in hand with that of cOur-
age. We therefore pledge to them
our hearty support and confidence,
knowing that they will bring back the
dag unSullied.

A worthy son always holds a good
mother in loving remembrance and
delights to honor her memory. Thirty
years ago General Palma, now presi-
dent-elect of Cuba hastily buried his
mother, a victim of Spanish cruelty,
in an obscure cemetery in Bayamo,
with a wooden cross to mark the spot.
A few days ago, with all tokens of re-
spect and love, he and his friends dis
inferred the remains, placed them in
a stately tomb bearing tablet with
tbs inscription: "Candelaria Palma,
whose beloved son Thomas has return
ed after thirty years and given her a
Christian burial"

The Indiana Farmers.

Delegate Robert w. Wilcox, Of
Hawaii, is deeply interested in the
bill providing for the division of gov
ernment lands in Hawaii into home
steads for farmers and people of the
middle class. In those islands now
are only the very rich and the very
poor, the latter being laborers or
coolies, The land area of Hawaii is
4,000,0 200 acres. Just about half of
this is in the hands Of seventy men
engaged in sugar raising and cattle
ranging. The other half is public
land which is rented to the sugar
corporations on leases that run from
five to sixteen years. 1t is these gov
eminent lands that delegate Wilcox
wants turned into homesteads to en-
courage American farmers to come to
Hawaii. He would divide them into
twenty-acre platS for the best lands and
eighty for the pastoral lands. Surely
there is a deplorable condition in
Hawaii not merely from the fact that
about 10000 out of population of
100, 900 are Asiatics, but because
seventy men can own half the area of
the islands and practically lease the
other half. 1t is manifeStly our bus
mess to improve the situation. But
it might seem to be long time be-
fore Americans that want to till the
soil should leave this land. Our own
summer harvest is coming on. The
demand for labor in the great wheat
belt in the west promises to be as
great this year as ever, while for
steady work and living anyone whose
good fortune has cast his lot in In
diana ought to think twice and deeply
each time before he leaves for any
place. -IndianapoliS News.

In Bad Condition to Strike.

The United Mine Workers are said
to be in a worse condition financially
for maintaining a strike than they
we're two years ago. The report of
the, national treasurer shows cash on
hand last Dec. 81, s97,047, more than
$50, 900 less than was on hand at the
end of the preceding year. There is
not much more money on hand than
there was six months ago, and at the
rate of IS per week for each striker it
would soon be exhausted. The report
shows the expenditures during 1901
were $3.50, l43 of which 1902, 926 was
for relief of strikers. Labor wars are
costly as well as other wars.

Fred Lands, who was nominated
for congress in the Eleventh district
Thursday, is only thirty years old and
has never had any experience IN pub
lie life. He was the nearest dark
horse of any of the candidates and
for that reason the opposition to Con-
ressmanSteele was able to unite on him
Mr. Steele was the most influential con-
gresham in the state and the only
reason for defeating him was that he
had been in congress twenty years
and ought to give somebody else

NEWSPAPERS DO THE WORK
For Political Parties Without Reward or
Even Hope of Reward.

The republican state central COM
mittee is organizing the newspapers
for campaign work. No class of men
are called upon to do SO much cam
paign work as newspapers, not even
the speakers, and when it comes to re-
cOgnition no class is so utterly ignor-
ed
Fact. Yet they 60 right on, regard
less of this fact, working for the prln-
cipleS in which they believe and gen.
orally for the men who often foist
themselves on the party. If one Of
the newspapers dares to dissent from
the opinions of the leaders or express
an opinion for the good of the party"
he is criticized as not good republi-
can and if he differs too often or talks
to frankly is often made the object of
abuse and sometimes compelled to face
competition backed by his enemies
ana IOStered by the men with whom
he differs. But after all he is the one
force that is always at it, In season
and out, working for the party and
for its principles and its policies. And
his recalcitrant moods are often all the
incentive that the party has to reform
itself, and to advance in the public
service. Elkhart Review.

There is no divergence among the
republicans on the question of the re-
tention of the Philippines. The flag
which is up in the islands must stay
up. If the democratic leaders want
to make an issue on this line-and
circumstances will probably force
them to do thiS-in the congressional
canvass, of 1902, the republicans
would be glad to crafty them. The
republicans are practically solid in
support of retention, while many
democrats are with them on this is
sue. A fight on this line would be a
one sided affair like that on silver in
1900, only little more so. The DEM
ocratS who are denouncing the con-
duct of the soldiers in the Philippines
and demanding that the islands shall
be given up are rendering great SER
vice to the republican party.

to establish that General Chaffee and
SubordinateS were ''cruel beasts"
that our soldiers in the Philippines
were guilty of furnishing, prosecuting,
and killing prisoners: that they used

ed the Filipinos worse than the
Spaniards ever did. One by one the
charges have fallen. Senators Raw
Inns and Carmack have withdrawn Of
fensive remarks about GeneralChaffee.
And on Tuesday, when Corporal

Senator Patterson publicly discredited
the story of O'Brienlsas to the use of

went on record against accepting it,.
