All Japan is Sobered.

An increasing feeling of sobrie-
ty and seriouness marks the pop
ular attitude toward the war.
It is doubtful that the masses
appreciated in the beginning the
seriousness Ct the task of expell-
ing Russia from Manchuria.
They had an easy confidence in
the ability of the army and navy
to reduce the fortress of Port
Arthur, destroy the Russian feet
ard crush Gen. Kuropatkin.
The prolongation of the siege,
the losses before Port Arthur
and Gen. Kuropatkin's escape at
Liao Yang have brought a gen.
eral appreciation of the magni.
tude of the national task and dis
dipated the growing hopes of an
early peace based on the conf
dence of sweeping victories.
Events at Port Arthur and Liao
Yang have impressively warned
the Japanese people to prepare
for a long and trying war.
Confidence in the final out
come, however. remains unshak-
en-, and the nation has resolutely
and determinedly settled down,
prepared to make sacrifices and
pay the price that success de-
mandS.

Curious Political Fact.
Walter Wellman, the we

Walter Wellman, the well
known newspaper correspondent
says it is a somewhat curious
fact that virtually the only state
in the Union where there is a
genuine political campaign this
year involving presidential and
governorship tickets. and with
both in grave doubt, is New York
which according to the traditions
of our politics, speaks with a de.
cisive voice as to the presidency.
In other states there are inter
esting local contests. as in Wis
consin, Nebraska, Colorado and
many more, buG in none except
New York does it seem likely
that the battle for presidential
electors is to be desperately wag-
ed. The republicans have small
chance in Maryland or Missouri
or Nevada. and the democratic
hopes in New Jersey, Connecti-
cut, West Virginia and Indiana
are not strong enough to give
them much courage for the fight.
If the outcome of the presidential
struggle depended upon New
York we should have here this
year one of the greatest political
battles ever fought in the United
States. But nearly all demo
Gratis as well as republicans-rec-
ognize the fact that the vote OF
New york is not all likely to be
decisive this year, and that with
out New York president Roose-
velt's chances are so good as al
most to preclude the possibility
of betting at anything like work
able odds.

Will History be Repeated?

In speech at Baltimore, Md,
Tuesday night, senator Fair
banks sounded ringing key
note calling attention to the ad.
verslty of Cleveland times and
the prosperity of Mckinley
Roosevelt times. He said: 1.-The
overthrow of republican policies
to-day must bring similar results
to those that followed their over
throw in 1892. Strike down the
protective system of to-day and
we will eat the bread of repent
ance tomorrow.
This is a matter for the Amer
ican people to seriously consider
Is it desirable that history re-
peats itself? Do we want to live
the disastrous days from '92 to
go over again? Do we want to
see success changed to failure.
happiness to misery, good times
to hard times, plenty to penury,
prosperity to adversity, just by
accepting the proposition OF the
democratic party that they can
run the government better than
the republican party?
All this happened to the coun-
try when IL years ago with eve.
rything in the country moving
along swimmingly for some un-
accountable reason thedemocrats
were taken at their word to make
times still better and were given
the power to do so. How swift
ly following the election of
Cleveland we're the bright skies
of prosperity beclouded and how
dense and dark the clouds be-
came all through the four years
of his reign.
It is up to the people again,
the same issue that confronted
them in 1892. Will they change
from a certainty to an uncertain
ty: will they 60 back on the pol.
icies that have made them pros
porous and happy during the
past eight years? If they do
they mustexpect to eat the bread
of repentance again, as senator
Fairbanks says.

dition to these statements, a
statement from D. J. Terhune.

The Change Of immigration.

In July year ago Italy and
Austria Hungary sent us A per
cent of our total number of immi-
grants. In July this year they
sent US but 20 per cent of the to-
tai. Russia, which sent US 20
per cent in July, 1903, sent US
about 25 per cent this year.
We get, therefore. an inter
esting test of the difference in
the MOTIVES controlling the emf
grants from these countries.
The Italians, Austrians and Hun
garians were attracted to US
primarily by the good times here
aud the first signs of industrial
depression, limiting their oppor-
tunities for profitable work,
served to cut their numbers in
two. The Russians, mainly Rus
sian, Jews, driven out by perse-
cution toward a promised land,
saw a happier future before them
despite the disadvantage of hard
times here, and actually increas-
ed their exodus, numerically as
well as proportionately.
The July immigration report
is interesting for still another
reason than this. 1t appears
that while immigration from
some countries was falling sharp
ly and from other countries
barely holding its own. that from
the British islands was doubling.
For England, Ireland, Scotland
and Wales the total in July, 1903
was 6.147, and for July this year
IL, IA. Probably the cheap
steerage rates which prevailed
all through July caused the
greater part of this increase, but
it is highly significant that just
in Great Britain, and especially
in England proper, these rates
were SO quickly taken advantage
of. We may have drained off
some of England's floating pop
ulation, in which case we have
received undesirable residents
as the result of the cheap rates,
or We may have secured a much
better class of people who had
been planning to emigrate and
cannily hastened their departure
to avail themselves of the favor
able moment.
The total immigration for July
this year was 81, 949, as against
81, 536 year ago.

Took the Wrong Course.

When long suffering wives and
mothers go on the war path in
small towns and demolish the sa-
loon frequented by the men of
families they seldom accomplish
any lasting good, but they usual
ly have the secret sympathy of
even that part of the community
which, as a rule, disapproves of
lawbreaking.
The inability of a wife to pro-
tect her own family's interests
when her husband is addicted to
drunkness is .tacitly accepted as
an excuse for a lawless proceed
ing that would otherwise call for
condemnation.
The courage of the young
women of Rolling Prairie, Ind.
who broke down the doors of a
gambling room for the purpose
of bringing to an end the gamb-
ling among the young men of
the town with whom they have
been excepting company" has no
such defense.
Unmarried women have a more
effective method of reforming
the young men of their acquaint-
ance than by following them to
their haunts ofvice. If he drinks
or CANDLES or is otherwise disso-
lutte, then all she has to do is to

about he will endeavor by better
behavior to lift this social boy
colt. If not, then the girl is

A Marrying Income.

their pay will permit the support

ly with an order issued by q
Candian bank that its employees
must not marry until they are in

A year or so ago a Chicago
bank reused considerable COM
ment by making similar rule,
its limit, however, being 81, 900.
A lively discussion was waged in
the newspapers as to whether q
man in receipt of 81, 900 a year
could afford to marry.
Impressive tables of expenses
were published, showing both
that he could and that
couldn't, and if the young man
in doubt depended on theo-
ry and newspaper advice he was
no better off than before.
All he really. needed to prove

knowledge is Power.

In an address at the dedication
of the new Carnegie Library at
Logansport Judge Daniel P.
Baldwin gave some thoughts
that are well worth repeating.
He said, among other things:
"Idealize your reals and realize
your ideals. Idealize your drudg-
cry by mixing it with thoughts
gathered from books, poetry and
art, thus making toll a pleasure,
and then try to realize in your
daily avocations these same
ideals. Tolstoy, the great Rus
sian, has written a most revolu.
tionary book, entitled What is
Art?' He points out that art is
the adequate expression in terms
of beauty OF our common duties
and daily experiences. This is
a great advance upon the old art
theories. Fifty years ago it took
a palace and lord and lady, or
a saint and a heavy villain, to
make a novel or a picture. Fifty
years ago manners were suppos-
ed to be the private property of
wealth and rank. All this is
now changed. The new social
order is the common. plain peo-
pie. We have discovered that
better pictures can be painted
out of the raw material furnish
ad by everyday life than from
castle, palace or cathedral.
There are two uses for a libra
ry, one as source of power.
Some times fundamental truths
are so familiar that we cease to
realize their value. This is one
of them. knowledge is power.
knowledge is not merely the &C
emulation of facts. 1t is the ac-
cumulation of skill and ability to
use facts. Skill is brains at our
finger tips and educated eyes and
ears"

INDIANA FRUIT BELT.
North Part of State Will Soon
Rival Michigan.

The three tiers of northern In
diana counties are making rapid
progress in the development of
fruit. and it will not be long until
this portion of the state rivals
the best of the fruit regions in
Michigan. The fruit output in
this part of Indiana is immense
this year, SO large in fact that it
can not be accurately measured
by carloads or in dollars and
cents. 1t is by far the largest
crop these northern counties ever
grew, and the success of this
year will encourage growers to
greater efforts in years to come.
The arbors are loaded with
grapes, apple crop is heavy and
the fruit of choicest quality.
Plums are so bountiful that the
people in these northern coun-
ties cannot begin to use the
whole crop. The plums are just
as fine as the grapes and apples.
The peach crop is also very
heavy.
The people of the northern
counties of Indiana think they
have better climate and soil for
fruit growing purposes than any
other part of the state and it is
to these two factors that the
most of this years success is due.
The fruit industry in those coun-
ties is in the hands of experience
ed men who are from year to year
broadning their efforts. 1t is not
possible to measure what they
will do in the way of developing
fruit as one of the great sources
of wealth hereafter. There is a
substantial market within easy
reach of the north part of the
state. The outlet to Chicago is
direct. the distance is short and
the Indiana growers can get to
this market as easily as can the
growers of other states.
With the peach and melon belt
of southern Indiana we'll estab-
lished, and with the general fruit
belt of the northern counties
gaining every year, it appears to
the growers of Indiana that this
state will before many years
rank with the foremost fruit-pro-
ducing the states of the Union.
The home demand for home.
grown fruits in Indiana is always
heavy. With the quantity and
quality of fruit improving, this
demand is expected to increases,
wealth will come tor the grow
ers, and this income will spur
them to greater efforts.

The Beyond.

The following beautiful and
soul inspiring composition is
from a lecture entitled 1.-The Be-
yond," by that versatile genius,
Bob Taylor, of Tennessee: Be-
yond this beautiful and ripping
stream, just over the edge of a
grassy knoll, there blooms a
rare and richly tinted flower.
They tell US it is so rarely beau
tiful that it may have blushed to
life at the touch of an angels
kiss and caught its rosy flush
from a burning star. Beyond
the painless mountains that lift
their blue peaks N the fading
distance they tell US there is a
charming valley that drinks the
diamond dew of morning and
bathes in the liquid sunbeams,
clad in verdure of everlasting
green and dotted all over with
flowers of every hue and shade.
Beyond the blue shade of the
painless ocean they tell US there
is climatefrom which the mel
low sunlight of spring never de-
parts; that it is laden with the
songs of the birds of beautiful
plumage, and peace, ease and
plenty rule the lives of the peo-
pie who never heard of war or
pestilence. Beyond the curtain
of darkness that hangs over the
gloomy night, there dwells
picture of morning-a picture of
fresh new life-that seems to
wake and move and breathes
away the mists, and they tell US
it's background is pleasure. Be-
yond the aches and struggles,
the fears and disappointments,
the bitter trials and wearing la
bors of time, we are taught there
is an eternity, whose higher pos
sibilities give promise for calm
er hours and sweeter rest"

Pullman Shops Resume.

The Pullman company's shops
have resumed business after two
weeks shut down. The shops
have been non union ever since
the great strike, and a cut in
wages of 10 to 20 per cent. was
announced. Less than 1000
workers were given their former
positions.
But these men willingly ac-
cepted the decrease in pay, and
snd several thousand of the for
mer employs left the yards of the
company bitterly disappointed
because they could not return to
work even at the reduction in
wages. It is the intention of the
Pullman company to have its
plant in full operation by next
Monday.
