The work of the United States forest
service in gathering statistics of forest
products for the year past has furnish
ed the basis for statement of the wood
consumed in the manufacture of paper
pulp. The returns from 159 firms, con-
trolling 232 pulp mills, give over 3,000,-
900 cords as the total amount of wood
used. The total pulp production by the
firms reporting was 100000 tons. Ac-
cording to the census of 1900, the con-
sumption Of pulpwood was then 1885,
$40 cords so that there has been an in
crease of over so per cent in the last
six years. This demonstrates, in a
striking manner, the drain upon the

If the Standpatters had tried and
studied and lain awake nights to invent
way to play into the hands of the
Progressives in Iowa, they could not
have done better than they did when
they got Steve Elkins to dip in. Why,
Steve Elllins is the very personifcation
of the devil to the people of the west.
He is the fly in the railroad rate ONT
ment. He is opposed to everything the
people of the west want. He stands for
greed and rapacity and Doodle and cor

For many years the expense of rail

of growing alarm to the circus pro-

job of hauling the big three section

senger traffic, and the danger of acct
dent, involving tremendous damages,
Is great. Several railroads have gone
TO the extremity of positively refus-
ing to accept the business and 9TH
ers have made rates so high that
circuses cannot travel on their lines
with profit.
Mr.. Bailey appreciated the urgency
of overcoming this condition long be-
fore his death last spring and had
settled upon the automobile as the
solution. Before the electric and

The Culebra Cut.
The Culebra cut does not offer such
great risks; that is, the damage liable
to occur from occasional land slidps
will not represent what may be called
major disasters. The work will mere

and executive capacity. It is, how
ever, the work upon which most la
Dor will have to be spent. The dams
will be composed of the earth taken
out of the cut and very possible the

The main work is now being done
IN the Culebra cut. It was striking
and impressive to see the huge steam
shovels IN full play, the dumping
trains carrying away the rock and
earth they dislodged.
The President takes pains to show
how the work IS progressing; he ex-
presses the largest faith in the ulti-
mate success of the undertaking, goes
at length into argument to show that
those who doubt the possibility OF the
plans under way are mistaken and

patch from Washington says that
within a few days the census bureau
will formally make public the statis-
tics for the manufacturing industries
of Indiana as obtained from the CEN
sus of 1905, which has just been COM
pleted. The statistics will be issued
in pamphlet form. together with a
great deal of entertaining and valua-
BILE information in line of comment.
This census will be of interest prac-
tically to every business man and
wage Garner in the Honsier common
wealth, as it touches nearly all
branches of industrial activity.
The gathering of these statistics
has been long and tedious task. An
act of Congress requires the Stats
tics of manufacturers to be taken
every five years. A corps of experts
was sent to Indiana and they collab-
Grated with the agents of the bureau
in the state. Collection of the sta
tistic occupied about five months and
even longer time was consumed in
tabulating them. The report presents
several striking comparisons. For
instance the number Of manufacture
ing. establishments has been con-
stantly decreasing in Indiana during
the last five years. This attributed
to the general movement toward con-
solidation that has prevailed through
out the country. e.
The consolidation of establishments
however, has not been a handicap to
the industrial progress of the COM
monwealth. Although in 1906 there
were eighty-four fewer manufacture
ing establishments in Indiana than
in 1900 the capital invested had in
creased from s219,321, $50 to $312,-

MINOR CASES COMING UP.

Next week will be one of the busiest
of the April term of Court, if all the
cases which are set for trial are call
ed. So far this term, there has been
little doing in the Circuit Court and
the docket is nearly as large as it was
at the first of April. On Monday of
next week, however, things will start
to happen. On that day, the case of
State VS.. Medsker, for embezzlement,
will be opened. Medsker is q well
known young attorney of Cambridge
City, and it is alleged that he appro-
priated to his own use about $3.50 be-
longing to a client. An indictment
was returned against him by the
grand jury several months ago.
On Tuesday, May 8, the retrial Of
the damage suit of Parker VS.. the
Dayton & Western, for $4,000 will be
started. Mrs. Parker was given a
verdict of $4,000 by jury during the

neys for the defense asked for and
were granted a new trial.
There are two cases set for Thurs
day: William Hill VS.. John D. Will
liams on note, demand 5000, and Quin-
cy T. Lyons VS.. the Jones Hardware
Co. appeal. On Friday, Barton Bell
will be tried for burglary. He is in
Jail under indictment by the grand
jury. 1t is understood that Bell will
plead not guilty and fight the case.
1t is alleged that he broke into a store

INDIANA's JUNIOR SENATOR Is

ON ACCOUNT OF HIS ATTI-

palladium Special

Indianapolis, May 1.-The Star
publishes the following from its
Washington correspondent:
Senator Hemenway's unqualified
declaration of support of the free al
cohol bill, as announced recently in
the Star, has brought to him many
etters of commentator from Indiana.
NJ. c. Price a prominent member of
the Grace Methodist church of Rich
mond, writes that at recent meeting
the Rev. w. M. Nelson, pastor of the
church, asked all who approved the
bill providing for free denaturized al
cohol to stand. There was an atten-
dance OF more than 200, Mr.. Price
states, and every person arose. The
Shelbyville Mirror Works, the Ameri'
can Chair Co. of Seymour and the G
w. Nickel Co, of indianapolis are
among the business firms that have
written to the junior senator express
ing approval of the bill.
In Danger in Senate.
1t is very evident that the free al
cohol bill is in grave danger in the
senate. powerful combination of
interests has been formed to kill it..
1t is proposed to do this first by
smothering it in the committee on
finance of which Senator Aldrich is
chairman. If public opinion forces it
out of committee an effort will be
made to load it down with amend
ments which will make its passage i'm
possible. The Standard Oil company
and the wood alcohol people have
been reinforced in their fight against
the bill by the protected interests gen
orally, the steel trust being especially
in evidence. The fear of the protect
ed interests is that If the bill gets be-
fore the senate it will open the tariff
revision ball and lead to many amend
ments intended to strike at the heart
of the present tariff system.

GOSSIP OF NATIONAL CAPITAL
(By A. w. Tracey.)

Washington, d. c., May Jerry
A. Matthews "a newspaper man from
Indiana, has violated the oldest ira
dition of the United States Senate.
He attended one of the executive ses-
sions of the Senate without KNOWN
il. and they are supposed tn he held
in secret. After Jerry" as every
pany with Vice President Fairbanks
he took on work with the Washing
ton bureau of the New York Sun and
was assigned the job of reporting the
proceedings of the Senate from the
senate floor. He has a desk on the
floor of the senate just in front of
the clerks desk and he Is entitled to
ecutive session.
Jerry" came up from lunch the
other day, wandered in to his seat
and remained there for six or eight
minutes while the Alaska boundary
commission treaty was being read
and then decided to go out because
he thought it an embarrassing docu-
ment. Nobody said a word to him.
After he got up in the press gallery
he learned that he had busted in on
an executive session and did not
know it.
The doorkeepers are so used to
seeing him go in and out of the cham
Der that they did not notice him 60
ing in when an executive session was
on. Many pleasant jokes have been
cracked over the affair at the expense
of both Jerry" and the senators. 1t
is safe to say that he is the first out
slider who ever attended secret
session of the United States Senate
and he did it without knowing it. at
the time.
Worth w. Foster, the New Albany
young man who lost his place at the
United States Naval Academy, has
been taken care of. Quartermaster
General Humphrey has been pre-
vailed upon to lend a helping hand
to the unfortunate young fellow and
he has been ordered to the cable
ship Burnsides which is now at San
Francisco. He is to report there for
duty at once and has been made a
third officer of that vessel. If he is
careful from now on he may yet re-
deem himself in the eyes of the naval
officers and make a record for him
self.
Representative CLANCY has just re-
turned to Washington after getting
denomination to congress from the
second district of Indiana, and is feel
ing jubilant over the prospects of re-

speech said that Mr.. CLANCY deserved
to be returned to Congress for he
had made every man. woman and

By that pleasant remark he meant
