Echoes of the Sherrick Case.

A dispatch from indianapolis
states that the Sherrick appeal to the
supreme court has gotten into such
muddle as to require almost con-
slant personl attention of Attorney
General Charles W. Miller. The Re-
publican state committee had planned
to start Mr.. Miller out campaigning
the first of the month, but owing to
the status of the Sherrick case, he
will not be able to go out until three
or four days later, or at least until
after the oral argument on the Sher-
rick appeal before the state supreme
court.
Originally the attorneys for David
E. Sherrick, ex-auditor of state, who
was sent to the penitentiary for mis-
appropriation of state funds appealed
this, criminal case, to the supreme
court. This was an ordinary appeal
ased on alleged errors in instructing
the jury and evidence. So far the
matter was in the hands of C. C..
Hadley, the deputy attorney general
Then the complications brought
about by the J. o. Henderson and A..
c. Daily cases muddled the Sherrick
case up. The Henderson and Daily
cases were prepared and fought by
Miller himself, and he is thoroughly
familiar with the details of these
cases In recent developments, how
ever, they are so inextricably mixed
as to require the attention of both
Mr.. Hadley and Mr.. Miller.
1t all came about through a petit
ton recently filed before the supreme
ceourt, asking that attorneys be al
lowed to submit to the court an in
tervening petition in the Sherrick
case Such a petition was filed by the
attorneys for Henderson and Daily,
who claim that they have an interest
in that part of the Sherrick case that
pertains to Sherrick's responsibility
in accepting the taxes of insurance
companies.
The supreme court will meet on
Tuesday, October 2, for its fall term,
and on that day it will be decided By
the court whether or not the Hen
derson and Daily attorneys will b..
allowed to file an intervening petit
ton and thus get in on the oral argu-
ment that is to be heard before the
supreme court the next day, Wednes
day.

He Died in the Poorhouse.

George Washington Glover, TWEEN
Ity-five years ago one of the wealth
lest men in Fountain county, died in
| the county infirmary He was ninety
years old. In his early manhood he
was active in politics, but he also
made money rapidly and took care OF
lit. He was conspicuous in every
movement looking to the betterment
of social conditions. This changed,
however, when his son who was trus-
tee of Mill township, was convicted
of embezzling public funds.
The senior Glover mortgaged his
farm to raise money with which to
defend his son, and he exhausted his
ready means to the same end. lie
failed to redeem the mortgage and
lost his farm, after which he engaged
i'm merchandising at kingman. This
also proved a losing venture. After
his son was released from prison he
went west and was never again heard
|of. The old man was stricken with
paralyss, and his wife died, and find
ing himself at the end of his resour-
ces the senior Glover became an in

wears ago.

does Mr.. Graves propose to send the

Professor Favors Quakes.

A famous professor, one who has
made close study of earthquakes
and one who is regarded as an au-
thority on the subject, says in the
course of an article on San Fran
cisco: The aftershocks which will
for few years be felt by the differ
ent portions of the western coast are
not OF a nature to cause alarm. On
the contrary, tits well that the shocks
should occur, as the disturbed earth's
crust settles by means of them. into
its original condition of equilibrium. I"
With all due respect to the learned
gentleman, who doubtless is as well
posted regarding the subject as is
possible for mere man to be, he
might better have told the dates
when these "aftershocks" are to oc-
cur.
If he had done this the people
could be ready and waiting. 1t is
barely possible that they might have
long wait or that they might not be
prepared soon enough. but the pro-
lessor would still have the satisfac-
ton OF knowing that he tried to be
definite. He could afterward infer
that he had been right in his predic-
tons and that nature had simply slip
ped a cog. Such charge might
sound a trife preposterous, but per-
haps no more so than the assertion
that such shocks are for the best.
Regardless of what the eminent
student says, one would think the
average individual could hardly be
persuaded that quake is a good
thing. 1t is rather difficult to under
stand just where the benefit comes
in. Of course the professor may be
able to explain, but pending enlight-
eminent from him we will continue
to hope that seismic disturbances be
few and far between

tons have also issued from the com
commission to some of the great
transportation lines which handle
large volumes of second-class matter
to present to the commission sug-
gestions relative to the methods of
handling this class of mail
In view of the fact that second

twenty-fourth of the postal revenue,
makes the work of this comission ex-

question with a view of arriving at
some fair and equitable adjustment
which will bring the minimum

The third quarter of 1906 closes
with commercial conditions fully as
sound as they were at the opening
of the last half While the outlook
is not for as great expansion as was
noted during the opening quarters
of the year indications are that the
situation will continue satisfactory
for an indefinite period. The political
campaign is causing less worry in the
commercial world than usual even the
nomination of Hearst causing little
concern in Wall street. where every
incident that can be used as a rnarkel
factor is employed.
