BY so much, therefore, must our ad-

or Girl may attend a public school
from the beginning of school life till
the completion of college course
without expense for tuition. Some
schools are bad, some good, some bet

article on Indiana the excellence of
the school depends on the teachers.
But the great fact stands out-and a
parallel can be found in the rural
parts Of no other country-that q we'll

public school system exists there: and
1t is complete. An Indiana lad may
become a scholar in literature or in
science, or he may become q master
OF agriculture or of mechanics-he
may be trained for any pursuit prac-
tically free OF cost for tuition; and a

Reports have it that Senator Cor
man will form a combination with
John R. Mclean and Col. Guffey to
control the Ohio and Pennsylvania
delegations to the st. Louis conven-
lions. German is crsdited with a pur-
pose to defeat the nomination of
Judge Parker. German held up the
entire Cleveland administration in
1894. He fheaded the trio of demo-
cratic senators who stood out against
the Wilson bill till it had been amend
ed to suit the sugar trust. The man
who with two other senators could
hold up Cleveland and his entire ad-
ministration and compel them to ac-
cept tariff subterfuge which satisfied
loS,dy, may be big enough to hold up
the st. Louis convention If he has not
lost bis grip.

debt which has come to be a distin-
gushing feature of Republican admin
istration.
Mr.. Hill was well prepared by nat
ural endowment and hard-earned ex-
perience for the duties he is now per-
forming. A native of Clay county, he
finished his junior year in the literary
department of Indiana University and
graduated in the law department of
that institution in 1876. For two years
thereafter he practiced law in Brazil;
then located In Bloomington, where
he became interested in banking and
other business enterprises. He was
successfully director, vice president
and president of the First National
Bank of Bloomington. For sixteen
years he has served as trustee of In
diana University, and has been for the
past thirty-five years an ardent and
useful friend of that institution.
Incidentally Mr.. Hill has been active
in politics, though up to the time of
his candidacy for the nomination as
State Treasurer his efforts were ex-
erted exclusively in the interests OF
his friends. He served as county
chairman, district charms and dele
gate to the national conventions which
nominated General Harrison in 1892
and William Mckinley in 1896.

Hit With Organ of Liquor Trade.
Our Standard" the organ of the

dorsement to the work accomplished
by the recent state convention of Pro-
hibitionists in Indiana. In its issue of
April rs Our Standard" says:
1.-THE edllor Of Our Standard has FREE
quently asserted that no conscientious
saloon keeper can honestly object to
the methods employed by the Prohibi-
ton party in Indiana A great many
condemn because they do not under
stand.
THE recent convention of the Prohi-
bitionists of this State passed resolu-
lions that with a little pruning will
look well on the minutes Of every
liquor dealers meeting in this State
That party goes on record as endors-
ing the very statements made by the
editor of Our Standard to the temper
ance committee of the legislature that
passed the Nicholson bill In '95.
THE sentiment expressed in the
platform Of the Prohibition convention
should be an incentive to the liquor
men t. set in line for their own pro-
lection and defense"

AN ABLE JUDGE
Conscientious Devotion to Duty Has
Characterized Indiana Jurist.

John v. Hadley was born on farm
In Hendricks county, Indiana, Oct. 81,
1S43. He left Butler University in
1861, at the close of his sophomore
year, and joined the army as private
In the Seventh Indiana infantry. He
was wounded in the second battle of
Bull Run August 20, 1852. In Novem-
Der, 1862, he was promoted from the
ranks to first lieutenancy, and was
shortly thereafter detailed on the staff
of General James G.. Rice. He was
again seriously wounded at the Battle
of the Wilderness, May 5, 1864, and
left upon the field as MORALLY in
jured. He was afterward conveyed
by the enemy to a Confederate field
hospital, from which hospital he. es-
capped, but after two days efforts in
trying to gain the Union lines was
recaptured and sent south, and was a
prisoner at Macon and Savannah, Ca,
and Charleston and Columbia, S. c.,

Judge Hadley was discharged from
the army in 1865, and upon his return
to civil life at once began the study Of
law. He was admitted to the bar in
June, 1866, married and settled in Dan
vile. He continued practicing his
profession in that city until the fall
of 1888, when he was elected TO the
circuit bench of Marion and Hendricks
counties. Upon the division of the cir
cult he was reelected to the Hendricks
Circuit Bench in 1894, and from that
to the Supreme Bench in 1898 His
service on the Supreme Bench has
been characterized by spirit of con-
scientious devotion to duty. Judge
Hadley has demonstrated unusual le-
gal ability and the possession of the
judicial temperament, and has won
the confidence and esteem of all those
having to do with the affairs of the
Supreme Court.

Mr.. Cleveland has repeated his in
dorsement of Parker and made it
somewhat more emphatic. But it
would be much more interesting if he
were to tell the hungry democracy
where Parker stands on at least one
or two of the questions prominently
before the public. All the public
knows about him thus far is his opin-
ion that he is big enough to grow in
to the job.

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES.
A County Ticket Nominated on the
Usual Minority Plan.

Democratic primaries were held In
all the townships of Marshall county
last Saturday and there were some
surprises. The result of the popular
vote was as follows:
For treasurer, Fred ii. Myers 7I6,
Thomas B. Lee GAL, S. A. Knobloch
54s, Urias Menser 245, George Maxey
563.
For sheriff, James T. Poulson III,

The inspectors of the ten townships,
the county chairman and two or three
expert democratic manipulators met
at Kuhn's hall Monday afternoon,
tabulated the vote and apportianed
the delegate vote so that on the final
count the delegate vote was as follows:
For Treasurer, Myers 1914, Lee
$3.50.
For Sheriff, Voreis 6S.12, Falcon.
bury $3.50.
For Recorder, Walker 62.S6; Mon
roe $500.
For Surveyor, Troyer 62.57, Thorn
pson 5S.41.
For Commissioner: Severne $685.,
Lawrence 54.34.
This gave them them the following
ticket: Representative, Daniel Nc
Donald, Treasurer, Fred H. Myers;
Sheriff, Daniel e. Voreis; Recorder,
Charles M. Walker; Surveyor, Percy
]. Troyer; Commissioner, First Dis
trict Joel Anglin; Commissioner Third
District, James b. Severns.
Mcdonald and Anglin had no oppo-
sition, consequently they received the
entire delegate vote, 121.
But James W. Falconbury who re.
ceived twelve more votes than Voreis
for sheriff got almost sixteen less
votes than Vereis when the delegate
vote was apportioned. This was
caused by his ratio being very small in
some,of the large townships like Center
and German.
While it cannot be charged that the
men who made the count were unfair,
it shows that the method used by the
democrats in this county seldom nom.
mates men who are the choice of a
majority of the voters.
Had delegates been selected in the
primaries and these delegates had met
and balloted until majority of them
agreed.on ticket, better expression
of the people would have have been OBJ
tanned. But if democrats are satisfied
we do not propose TO register any kick.
We shall have something more to say
of the ticket between now and No,

as many young gallant of the town

OF several Of his kinsmen, offered her
honorable marriage, involving, as it
did, the renouncing of his family priv
ileges, which, however, amount to lit

Court officers tried in vain to dis
suade and coerce the young archduke.

PATRIOTISM HARMFUL.
Maurice Maeterlinck, the Famous
Mystic, Makes Singular Declare
ton as to Love of Country.

To the question:: Us patriotism in
compatible with love of humanity ?"
Maurice Maeterlinck, the mystic, re-
plies:
The Ideas that guide humanity ought
to be respected only in proportion to the
amount Of good they do.
The idea Of a fatherland was long
necessary. 1t is not yet completely use
less. That fact indicates that the hour
approaches when 1t will become harm
full.
1T is the duty, then, of those who
walk in advance of the unthfnkinE
masses to attack that idea from now on
If they wish their descendants to find
the sentiment enfeebled enough to be
overthrow upon the day when men
shall realize that 1t stands seriously in
the way of mans evolutions.
1T is important to destroy, little by
little, everything which tends to hamper
the liberty of man. as If all men really
deserved to be free. One knows, how
ever, that they will not merit the free
dom for several centuries after their de-
liverance. The harmonious use of lib
erty can only be learned through long
abuse of its benefits"
Maeterlinck's singular opinions are
only step in advance Of others given,
with his, to Paris review by eminent
contributors.
Even Paul Deroulede, hot-headed ma
tionalist that he is, assents in some de-
gree to the suggestion involved in the
question that patriotism and love Of hu-
manity are incompatible.
