assist in the election of the Republican
State. ticket and a Legislature that will re-
elect Senator M. A. Hanna, as both the
United States Senators from Indiana will
be in the Buckeye State all week. Senator

first speech this afternoon, and he will speak
twice a day until Saturday, when he will
Senator Fairbanks will leave Indianapolis
at o'clock this evening, and will open
his campaigning tomorrow afternoon at
Manchester. He, too, will close Saturday.
The election in Ohio comes a week from
tomorrow and 1t marks the close of an I'M
usually lively campaign, for off-year
fight. The Republican leaders have at no
time felt in doubt as to the result, but at
the same time they have proceeded on the
theory that the victory could not be too
large and have spared no effort in appealing

orators and most experienced campaigners
in the country. Senators Fairbanks and
Beveridge were complimented by assign
ments to speak exclusively in what are re-
garded as the CLOSE districts and counties.
Senator Hanna and Chairman Dick, of the
Ohio Republican State committed believing
that the arguments and el0quence of the
Indiana Senators will have telling effect
and do the most good in those sections.

ally announced his candidacy for the chair
manship of the Republican organization in
the Thirteenth district, that he has de-
cided to permit his friends TO use his name
as candidate. which amounts substantially
to the same thing. AT the same time Mr..
Stephenson says that his candidacy for dis

that he has abandoned his ambition to be

trict composed of Wabash and Fulton coun-
ties. Mr.. Stephenson a candidate for

Eastern port, presumably Chinese. There
is huInor in the story and there is also
tragedy. but the latter is of the past and
is related only as an Incident In the life OF
the man known as Falk. Yet this by-gone
episode dominates for a time the lives OF
half a dozen persons IN no way connected
with II originally. Ii Is a grim episode,
and the matter-of-fact description OF IL
clings in the mind and stirs the magma

down in print. Like others OF Conrads
stories, II has haunting quality. No wri-
ter OF current literature succeeds in convey

artist who conceals his art, and the secret

the insight IL gives into a life OF which

contributing to the revenues of the State
and to its prosperity in other ways. Con-
gresham Crumpacker. who represents that
district, was master of ceremonies on Sat
urday. and. in introducing the speakers. he
said:
II believe that this new center of in
dustry, together with Whiting. Hammond,
East Chicago, and all the other cities OF
the northwestern corner of Indiana Will
eventually merge into one vast metropolis,
which will prove TO be the center of COM
merce for the west. Considering its pres
ent railway and shipping advantages, there
can be no doubt that this harbor is one
of the best manufacturing localities in all
the west. 1 have no doubt that the fed
eral government will appreciate the
natural advantages of this locality as TO
make suitable appropriations for the de-
velopment OF those advantages.

The Muster Rogue.

The master rogue of the book bearing
the title named is a thoroughly unscrupu-
lous millionaire, who, seemingly entirely
without conscience. still has that mentor
in a somewhat deadened state. He is a
difficult character to handle. yet David
Graham Phillips has succeeded in making
him strikngly lifelike. The author takes
up slightly too much space with his story
probably on account of the haste in writing
which hinders a proper sense OF proportion.
Nevertheless, the book, considered as a
psychological study, is good enough TO out
weigh the effect of lengthy plot. II is ex-
tremely doubtful whether man so un-
trustworthy as the rogue" could succeed
for so long time; but IL this is accepted
as a possibility the realism OF his thoughts
and actions is Immediately apparent. Nc
