That the delay of the council in
getting to work on the levee is liable
to cauze unexpected trouble was in
dicated last night when no bids upon
the work advertized were received. It
was expected that there would be an
abundance of contract seekers, but
when the time for opening bids ar
rived last night no bids We're to be
found. 1t was explained that several
contractors had looked over the plans
but had been deferred from bidding
on the work thru fear that high water
would interfere with concrete work.
Another meeting of the council will
be held Saturday night for the pur-
pose of considering levee matters,
and in the meantime the levee COM
mittee will endeavor to secure some
bidders for the work. Otherwize the
city will have to proceed and have the
repairs made itself. under the ,direc-
tion of a foreman.
Trading Stamps Tabooed.
By an ordinance which was intro
duced and past last evening the trad
ing stamp bizness in this city was
dealt body blow. BY the provizions
OF the ordinance any concern dealing
in trading stamps in Pendleton will be
required to pay a yearly license of
$500. which shall be payable quarter
ly. Anyone transacting such a bizness
without license will be subject to a
fine of from SO to $50 or imprizon-
ment.
During the illness of Judge Fitz
Gerald, Joe Parkes has been filling
that position, and by action of the
council last night he was appointed
as temporary recorder and his past
acts in that capacity were endorsed.
Liquor licensse were granted to
John Estes & Co, and to Sherman
Warner.
Merchants Affected Too.
BY the terms of the trading stamp
ordinance past merchants who con-
tract for the use of trading stamps in
the future will also be required to
pay a license of $500 per year for
using the same. consequently, it is
believed that the ordinance will have
the effect of lessening if not abolish
ing the green stamp evil within this
city. The meazure was adopted by the
CpuuCll at llS lllStdlCt ol lne local
merchants.
MethOdists Get Permit Without Bond.
During the session last night a very
warm tilt occurred between Council
man Ell of the street committee. and
Messrs. oliver and Mumford of the
Methodist church bilding committee.
The dispute was over the use of the
street for piling the bilding material
for the new church, and Mr.. Ell up
braided the churchmen for taking
more than half the street. and insist
ed that they be required to give a
bond to secure the city against any
possible damage suits that might
arize.
In behalf of the church Messrs.
oliver and Mumford spoke in a very
reazonable manner of their intentions
to obey the orders of the council, and
explained how the space allowed them
in the street had been OVERSIGHT thru
no fault of theirs. However. they OBJ
iected to giving a bond. as such had
never been required before in Psndle-
ton.
Councilman Murphy also declared
that no bond should be required of
the church people, and Mayor Fee
held that no radical action should be
taken. bilding permit was finally
allowed.

No one can read the examina-

Standard Oil Company without
forming two impressions so dis
tinct tnat nothing but the most
positive andcomprehensive proc:
o. their error will remove them.
One is that Mr. hogers looks
upon the laws of the Unlred
States and of the several States
and upon the courts of the land
with supreme contempt. Inc
other is that the Standard OH
Company fears general knowl-
edge of its methods. Mr.. Rogers
seems to view the legislative IN
Quiry mo his company's opera

and an unwarranted interfer-
ence with private enterprises OF
which the public has no right to
know and which justice mas no

OIL Company is obeying the law
and ii its methods can stand the
! light of day, its owners and eX-
ecutive officers ought to be ready
and willing and even anxious "a
, court the fullest publicity and

KERN SOUNDS KEYNOTE.
Decorate State Leader Arouses Er
ihusissm ti Editors

What was intended by the Dem
ocratic editors Of Indiana as their
keynote for the coming state
campaign was delivered on the
night OF Feb. lst at their annual
banquet at the Grand hotel by
the Hon. John Worth Kern, late
candidate for governor. He fig
uratively shot the present Repub-
lican state administration full of
holeswith his carefully prepared
address on the subject Of Public
Graft - He went after the Re-
pubicans right from the shoul-
der. sparing none of the officers
at the statehouse. from the
Judges Of the supreme and appel
late courts and the governor
down to Secretary of State
Storms. who is now defendant in
proceedings brought by the gov
ernor to oust him on the charges
of alleged irregularities In office.
Mr.. Kern made it plain at the
outset 1 hat his address would be
devoted very largely TO what the
Republicans are saying about
each other. He referred to the
situation at the statehouse as .
beautiful Republican riot. III:
arraignment was not bitter
but it was right to the point anC
: evoked great enthusiasm. As
. campaign keynote it met witt
oIthe hearty approval of the edi
tors as Mr.. Kern convinced then
= that the Democrats have a worl'
of good material for their plat
form this year. He criticised
Governor Hanly very severe !,
for signing a bill for an annua
!, appropriation of II, 800 to pa,
chis house rent. His criticism o
the Judges Of the supreme an
appellate courts was on tn
ground that they should not hav
accepted an increase OF salar
D after accepting their office
: knowing what their salary woul
be. With the gov ernor and tn
Judges of the two highest court
in the state participating in
raid on the public treasury b
declared that 1T is not to b
wondered at that the spirit {
graft has become infectious an
has spread to county, city an
township officers. 1t seems ;
said. that 1T has become tn
creed of the Republicans to a.
/ sorb the surplus Of money with
! thir reach" He insisted thi
the governors taking of SIS
annually for house rent IS gra
OF the worst type.

A prse,ieaI r,mprrsree Argument

The action of the Manufact r
ers' Club of Terre Haute is insist
ing that the laws regulating the
sale of liquor shall be enforced Is
significant. and the arguments
used in support Of such observ-
ance are well worth considering.
The pleas commonly put forward
lbv the professional temperance
advocates have to do only with
the moral aspect of the subject.
The all-night saloon and the Sun
ldav saloon, they assert truly
enough. are an especial encour,,
agement to drunkenness and
vice This undeniable fact
should be sufficient to secure an
enforcement of the closing law,
Int where this is not sufficient to
influence public officers TO DO
their duty the injury to the gen
leral business and prosperity OF a
town caused by a wide open
policy should have an effect.
Members of the anufacturer 5
Club frankly acknowledge that
they are not basing their course
on moral grounds, since some O.
their number are themselves
drinking men, but on the tact
that the wide open saloons inlure
their business by making tneli
workmen unfit for a day or 5.
after nav day. "We do not get
orr money's worth from labor,
, thev say. They also declare tha'
other business enterprises hav'
refused to come to Terre Haut'
because of this opportunity 10
workmen to lie about saloons al
= day Sunday. This is undouotec,
e v true. The manufactures
!, claim to have the same nght !
" protect their business that N
: Iiouor interests have, and as IN
law is on their side they deman
its enforcement. Their stat'
., ments are corroborated in a time
