PuBusMEs EVERY TUESDAY AND FRIDAY,
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1904-05-12

The Boston police board recently a.
dopted rule intended to prohibit
women from drinking in saloons.
After the order had gone into effect
some of the saloon-keepers discover
technicality upon which they thought
they could evade the mandate. Ac-
cordingly they began to sell to the
women samples" of liquor 10 bottles,
which was not specifically prohibited
under the general order. Chairman
Emmons of the police board at once
notified the offenders that such at
tempts at violation of the spirit of the
boards mandate would in every case
be followed by revocation of the liq-
ucrSeller's license, and the practice
came to a sudden stop. The Boston
police board has evidently started out
with the serious intention of keeping
women from the saloons. It's order
is not mere subterfuge calculated to
appease the public and to be winked
at by the authorities.

The approach of the Fourth OF
July is stirring up municipalities large
and small, to the consideration of
present methods Of celebrating the
DAY by Young America,-and by Amer
lea not quite so young-and to ways
and means of diminishing the noise
and the explosions. the fires and the
Inevitable accidents. The Inquirer.
published in the sleepy old town Of
Philadelphia, rises to remark that the
really big town no longer considers
noise as necessary exhibit to demon
strate progress and prosperity. But
on the subject of noise Philadelphia
can not be taken as an expert, very
little of the article being known there
abCutS.
Nevertheless there is very much to
commend Itself in the projected effort
to suppress the intolerable nuisances of
the Fourth in the shape of detonat-
ing implements and Eliminates, and
the movement is not SO much ia the
way Of decline Of patriotism as it is in
the line of necessity for measures of
safety. The number Ut deaths di.
rectly resulting from the method in
which the Fourth was celebrated last
year exceeded 1000, while there were
maimings and bindings and burns and
scaldings innumerable. the deadly toy
pistol, forbidden in the abstract, but
used in the concrete, furnishing the
largest percentage of the casualties.

Joseph Jefferson. the veteran actor,
in a little speech the other night,
stated that his first appearance on the
stage was in his youth as a vocalist
and in attempting to sing the "Star
Spangled Banner, he failed complete
ly, broke down and lett the stage
amid a shower of Kisses.
His first thought was that he never
more would appear in public, then
the thought came to him that he was
a coward to give up SO easily, SO he de-
termined to show the people that he
could sing that song and be went out
aud he went out and sailed through it
in such fine shape as to win an encore.
From that time on his success was as
sured and in all his half century's ex-
perience on the stage that was the
only time he ever was greeted with a
hiss.

The issue in the campaign OF 1904,
whatever anybody may say about it.,
Is between republican management on
the one hand and democratic misman-
agement on the other. However
beautiful and plausible democratic
theories may be, the party leadership
has demonstrated beyond question
that it is absolutely incapable Of ap-
plying these theories to the well-being
of the people. What everybody wants
in the management of national affairs
is results, and the only way to obtain
these results is to keep in power the
only party that is capable of bringing
about these results. This the repub-
lican party does and this the demo-
cratic party has demonstrated that it
is p1werless to do.

Alta meeting of capitalists in Gin
cinnatti few days ago plans were
discussed for Harvesting the Ohio riv-
er for power and commercial purposes
from Pittsburgh to Cairo. The pro-
ject calls for an expenditure of $780,
100000. The idea is to elaborate on
the work now being done by the
United States government, and also
to building reservoirs at the headwat-
ers of the tributaries of the Ohio.
1t is stated that the plan can be car
ried out for $50, 900, 900, that it will
do away entirely with floods and low
water. and also that 1t will provide
electric current to all the cities along
the river At small fraction Of the
present cost. Another E.S,tlng fcz

The city marshal of Laporte was re-
elected by plurality reduced from
something over 600 two years ago to
SO. He was the regularly chosen DEM
ocratic nominee both times. but his ad-
ministration had not been satisfactory
to his own party. Now, chagrined be-
cause of his small vote, he is making
Laporte 'dry" town. Saloon keep
ers are being prosecuted for selling in
toxicants on election day: gambling
houses and i'll resorts are being in
structed to close their doors; and a
blind pig has been made to see the
error of its ways, and word has gone
out that thereafter Laporte will not
be an 'sopen town."

Pagan Appeal FOR Humanity.

Late copies of the Hochi Shimbun,
one of the leading morning papers of
Toxic, Japan. has arrived in the
United States, and translation of
the contents develops some interest.
ing things.
Naturally the war news and CON-
ment, with proper illustrations. make
up the major part of the papers con-
tents.
The leading editorial is humane
and entirely fair discussion of the war.
Readers are urged not to cherish IN.
civilized feeling Of revenge. ''When
the struggle is over, says the Hochi
Shimbun, "Russia will be our good
neighbor and friend. :" Only Russians
with deadly arms are to be fought. it
continues, and the Japanese are re.
quested to deal with Russian prison
ers in kindly and humane manner.
A section of the editorial reads:
There are not many Of the enemey IS
captives with US at present. The four
sailors from the Russian torpedo des-
troyers are in our hospital, and are
we'll cared for. They were among the
crew OF sixty who fought valiant
fight and bravely died at their posts.
They are heroes though they be of
the enemy. They are true sailors who
have done their duty faithfully. Then
why should we rot honor them and
treat them kindly? 1t is fact to be
regretted that our people, who were
coming away from Manchuria, Vladi-
vostok and vicinity were subject to
many indignities. Our helpless wom-
en- were Shamlessly misused. But this
is not an excuse for us to treat the
Russian captives unkindIy. Revenge
is sin; it is barbarous act. IAN eye
for an eye, and tooth for a tooth, y
belongs to an old law that is obsolete.
We are living under new law of nni-
verSal brotherhood and love-
And this is from the pen Of a pagan
editor, printed in pagan paper Of
great prominence in pagan country
There is no understandable note,
no appeal to .barbaric methods in any
OF the utterances of the japanese press
or in any Of the Official orders SO fal
issued by the government.

Three Kinds OF Memory.

These are the three kinds of memory
visual, auditive and motor. Those
who need to recite the lesson aloud

and motor. Certain persons retain a
passage we'll only after they ha,
copied it out. These have a comb
nation of motor and visual memor.

w. E. Curtis, the well-known trav.
eler and correspondent, is now i'm Bur-
ma, and in one of his letters to the
Chicago Record Herald he says:
Slowly but surely the great fabric OF
Buddhism, which has stood in Burma
for 1000 years, is breaking down and
crumbling away. 1t cannIt stand
the test of education. 1t cannot en-.
dure the light Of modern inquiry; it
does not conform to the demands of
civilizations: it does not apply to the
wants and needs of progressive minds,
and as the common people are educated
and extend their knowledge and ex-
perience its influence must disappear.
Whether its believers will adopt
Christianity when they abandon the
faith of their ancestors is doubtful
The failure Of the foreign population
to exemplify the ideals taught by
Christianity, and to observe its prin-
ciples, always puzzles the heather
mind, and our theological differences
are an obstacle to his understanding,
although he is accustomed to similar
controversies in his own religion. No
one is so keen as pagan to realize
the difference between preaching and
practice, and he usually comments
upon it with cynical amusement.
which impairs, if it does hot destroy,
his faith in our pretensionS and sim
certify. 1t is comparatively easy to
teach him that his gods are impotent
and that the evil spirits which inhabit
the atmosphere cannot affect his af-
fairs or change his destiny, but the
differences in the Interpretation of
the Bible are too complicated for him

into indifference and materialism.

Centralized Country Schools.

Lagrange county has tried the plar
of centralizing their country schools,
Thirty-eight country schools were alb
andoued and the children carried to
graded schools In hacks. The cost Of
conveyance for the pupils amounted to
s.. 1868 but the saving In teachers
salary, fuel, amounted to S12, 911,60
making net saving of Sc. 624, IA, TO
the year. Besides the pupils wer.
given the benefit of graded work in
place of country schools, better teach
ers, etc. So per cent of the patrons
have become favorable to the centra-
liZatiOn plan.

We do not think that the munich
pal elections held Tuesday throughout
Indiana have great political slgnif-
canoe, In almost every case there
we're special reasons why the people
voted as they did. We in Indianap-
oils, after our experience OF last Octo-
Der, can understand this for we know
that democratic mayor was elected
here by the help of hundreds OF re-
publicans who did not cease to be re-
publlcans. More and more people are
showing an unwlllingness to allow
their action in local elections to De
controlled by partisan considerations
And this is one of the best signs Of
the dimes. In accounting for the re-
suits Of Tuesdays voting, therefore,

Democratic State Convention.

The democratic state convention at
Indianapolis Thursday for the pur-
pose Of selecting delegates to the na-
tional convention promises to be
one of the liveliest conventions
held by Indiana democrats since 1892.
The Parker and Hearst forces will
have their headquarters during the
convention at the Grand and Claypool
hotels, respectively. HearSt's man.
ayers are making special preparations
to entertain their people on a lavish
scale, such as Indiana Democrats have
never known before, and will show
that the bottom of the Hearst barrel
has by no means been reached. J..
Oscar Henderson, who is at the head
of the bureau. has engaged the large
assembly room on the eighth floor of
the Claypool as general rendezvous
for the Hearst delegates and rooters,
and in addition a room will be fur
nished for each district, or at least for
districts that come up with a spff1-
cient number of Hearst delegates to
justify the opening Of district head
quarters. Several men from Hearst s
Chicago headquarters will be there for
the convention to assist In entertain
ing the delegates and doing the wlre-
pulling behind the scenes, while in the
open Henderson, Neal, sherwood,
Caldwell, Senator Lew V. Ulrey of
Fort Wayne, Edgar L. Mains and
three or four other Indiana men will
marshal the forces.
The Hearst leaders are not alto
gether pleased with the suggestion
that the Parker people have slated
Alonzo Greene Smith for permanent
chairman of the state convention.
They are familiar with his record as a
presiding officer, made in the state SEN
ate In 1887, when he took possession
of the chair, had himself declared
acting Lieutenant Governor, or presi-
dent, and ruled the upper branch OF
the legislature with an iron hand dur
idg the memorable senatorial fight,
and they know that with him in the
chair in the state convention the
Hearst delegates will be as helpless as
the republican state senators were in
1887. However. they realize that the
Parker people will be able to organize
the convention and make Mr.. Smith
chairman if they wish. II the
Hearstites should be able to organize
the convention it is understood that
they would name Senator Ulrey OF
Fort Wayne or James McCabe, OF
Willlamsport. forchairman.
