Indiana VIII Be In Line.

Representative Griffith of the Fourth
Indiana distri& has just returned from
a two weeks stay In his state. Mr. Grif-
fifth has announced that he will not be
a candidate for reelection and therefore
has no axes to grind.
Discussing political conditions in In
diana, he said today, that he believed
the state would cast its vote for the
nominee of the St Louis convention. Even
with Senator Fairbanks on the vice-pres-
idential ticket, he does not think Indiana
will be found in the republican column.
THE favorite son business does not al
ways swing a state" said Mr.. Griffith,
you remember The Harrison experience"
Indiana is a German state, and If the
convention We're held tomorrow I believe
the states convention vote would be cast
for the Maryland senator OF course
Judge Parker of New York, has many
friends but no one seems to know any
thing about the Judge
Mr. Bryan, having twice been the NOM
inee of democratic conventions. has
strong following in the state. but his re-
cent utterances have found very little
re-eeho In the ranks of the democrats.
Before taking his trip abroad every utter
anec made by Mr.. Bryan seemed to indi-
cate harmony. Since his return, however,
1t has been all the other way

A PARDON CASE.
Rev. Mr.. West criticises Governor
Jelks for Pardoning jacob.

To the Editor of the Age-Herald:
The conduct of Governor Jelks in par
doing Sanford jacob came as a very
great surprise to many. The facts devel-
oped as | understand them, were about
as follows: A pure, modest country girl,
on her way to see her mother, who was
thought to be dying, had to spend the
night in Montgomery. Unaccustomed to
travelling alone, she was inquiring OF
the whereabouts of a family she knew
with whom she might spend the night.
This man hearing her making the inquiry,
offered to conduct her to the place. TAX
ing advantage of her credulity and in
experience, he carried her to house, and
which is infinitely more sacred than life
itself. For this offense he was twice tried,
and the last time convicted and given
the full penalty of the law. And now,
after the cost of these trials, and the
conviction b., a jury of his peers, in about
one year, or less, he is turned loose on
society to continue his hellish assaults
on the virtue of pure and unsuspecting
young women.
me question: is diTeduy burning III the
minds of men that there is no protection
in law for the virtue of our homes. When
a man duly convicted of such an atrocious
crime is turned loose, it gives the mob
spirit tremendous impetus. The gov
ernor claims to be opposed to mob vio-
lence, and yet his conduct in this matter
is such, in my judgment as to incite mob
or personal violence. In my opinion, a
great wrong has been perpetrated on So
ciety in not allowing this man to suf-
fer the penalty imposed by the law. cam
not conceive of conduct more atrocious
than that of which he was convicted, and
yet the governor sets the verdict of the
court aside by saying according to pub
lished reporD that, in his opinion, 1t
amounted only to a case of assault and
battery" Heaven defend US!

candidate and could not accept the chair
manship of the democratic congressional
committee during the approaching cam

meeting of the committee which will elect

A number of states have not yet elected
congressional committeeman. but in such
instance the delegations will meet within
a few days and report the names to Sec

will succeed Mr. Griggs. No one seems
to particularly desire the place, as the

the whole the Maryland democrats got out
of their senatorial deadlock for the BEST
Isador Rayner is a man of the highest
respeetabiity and intellectually, and will
be creditable addition to the senate. He
was warmly supported by the independent
voting also of citizens who hold the bal
ance of power in Maryland politics.
He was opposed by the thoroughbred
regulars who always march to the polls
and vote the ticket, taking no heed to
names or platforms. This class was
against Mr.. Rayner because he was
against Bryan in 1896 and 1900 1t is safe
to say that the election Of Rayner will
not effect the future votes of the regular
organization democrats, and it is also safe
to predict that the triumph of Rayner will
keep the independents in line for the
democratic national ticket this year.
Senator German absolutely refused to
the last to take any part in the contro-
versy. He said to his Maryland friends
that 1t has democratic legislature and
was fully competent to elect a good man
and democrat for the senate.
Mr.. Rayner, the senator elect, has filled
high official places In his political ca
reer. In the Fifty-second and Fifty-third
congress he was one of the house leaders.

About Sanative kntisep-

And about the Care Of the Skin,
Scalp. Hair and Hands

Too much stress cannot be placed on
the great value Of Cuticura Soap, Oint-
ment and Resolvent in the antiscptic
cleansing of the mucous surfaces, and
of the blood and circulating fluids, thus
affording pure, sweet and economical
local and constitutional treatment for
weakening alterations, infammationss
itchings, irritations, relaxations, dis
placements, pains and Irregularities Pc
culiar to females. Hence the Cuticura
remedies have wonderful influence In
restoring health, strength and beauty
to weary women, who have been pre-
maturely aged and invalided by these
distressing ailments, as we'll as such
sympathetic aflictions as an@mia, chic
rosis, hysteria and nervousness.
Women from the very first have fully
appreciated tho purity and sweetness,
the power to AFFORD immediate relief,
the certainty of speedy and permanent
cure, the absolute safety and great
economy which have made the Cuticura
remedies the standard humour remedies
of the civilized world.
Millions of women use Cuticura Soap,
assisted by Cuticura Ointment, for pre-
serving, purifying and identifying the
skin, for cleansing the scalp of crusts,
scales and dandrufi, and the stopping Of
falling hair, for softeninC, whitening
and soothing red, rough and sore hands,
for annoying irritations and lucrative

USE OF THE TYPEWRITER.
Terseness and Precision Becoming a
Characteristic of Business
Correspondence.

The invention of the typewriter has
given tremendous impetus to the die
tating habit, especially among bust
ness men. The more ephemeral literary
productions of the day are dictated
sometimes to a stenOgrapher for trans
cription, and often directly to the
machine. In either case, says Robert
Lincoln O'Brien, in Atlantic, the lit
erary effects of the debating habit are
too manifest to need elaboration. The
standards of spoken language, which
in the days of the past stood out in
marked contrast with the terseness
and precision of written composition,
giving rise to the saying that no good
speech ever read well, have crossed
over to the printed page. This means
not only greater diffuseness, inevita-
BILE with any lessening of the tax on
words which the labor of the writing
imposes, but it also brings forward the

attitude is not lost when his audience
