AS to warning the public, as soon
as the present Health Officer was in

analysis received to that date. H. e.

existed no occasion for carding the
public-else it would have been done.
We were all working in harmony and
for the public's good. If we erred
in judgment, (Which | am not willing
to admit it is a matter of regret and
not censure.
1t is but just to the County Health
Officer to state that he did no concur
in our view. The best was done that

doubtful character, and now the citi-

AS TO TELEPHONES.

The Home Telephone Company evil
IDENTIFY intends to give the people
what they want, knowing perhaps,
that they have not been getting what
they deserve for some time past.
The new telephone system which is
to be installed will unquestionably be
the best that money and brains can
devise and there will be none in In
diana that will approach it in per-
lection. In the meantime, however,
the Central Union Company also is
spending much money in improving
its system and people are naturally
wondering just what all this will
bring about. Both companies with
their costly investments cannot hope
for profitable returns.On or the 9th
er must finally be vanquished if there
is not a merger and just now it looks
as if the Home Telephone Company
would be justified in turning down
any merger offer that might be made
1t will be a fight in which the fittest
will survive and as general prop
osition the sympathies of the people
are always with the home concern.

Communication in New York Sum-
Occasionally some unappreciated
genius whose manuscripts have been

manuscripts no matter how worthy
they may be of consideration. Per

one of questionable propriety, but
nevertheless a test, and a relentless
one. One of Kipling's most popular
short stories was selected. The en-
vironment of the tale was English,

as doubtful quantity politically, but
most as reliably Republican as it is
possible for State to be. viii not
change this year. A few weeks ago
some Republicans were alarmed at
the evidences of the getting together
of the Democrats and the apparent
apathy of the Republicans. They
believed that it pointed to disastrous
results. Such opinions are no longer
entertained. Even the strongest Dem
ocratic papers in the country point TO
Indiana as hopeless" Louis Lud-
low, of the Indianapolis Star, whose
political representations are based
on visits to every district in the
State, thus sums up the situation:
"The state election will take place
five weeks hence. A careful survey
of the situation in Indiana shows that
general conditions are highly favor
able TO the Republicans. Among
whose judgement is regarded as
feI1aDIe 1H0eA Oh IuS political UIIiI
it is believed Indiana viii go Repub-
lican anywhere from 10000 to $4,000.
THE developments of the last few
weeks have been altogether favor
able to the Republicans. William j.
Bryan and w. r. Hearst have done
more to increase the size of the Re-
publican plurality in Indiana than
anything the Republican campaign
managers have done or hope to do.
Bryan's government ownership dec
laration chilled the Indiana Democ-
racy and drove away from the Demo
cratic banners many erstwhile Gold
Democrats who otherwise would have
been fighting in the ranks with Bry-
an as their accepted leader"
stA1l over Indiana are heard among
Democrats who never have faltered
in their allegiance to party, express
sions of keen disappointment over
what they term Bryan's ''blunder."
1t is a common remark that when
ever the Democrats begin to show
signs of getting together some one
in a position of leadership is certain
to say something or do something
that will upset the whole kettle of
fish,"

SCIENCE OF AGRICULTURE

The exhibit of farm products
grown by the pupils of the district
schools of Wayne County, which was
recently made in this city, could not
be otherwise than beneficial 1t is a
fact that until the past few years
it was not fully recognized, that the
district schools paid little or no at
tention to the industry of farming
A majority of the pupils, who came
from the farm, were interested in
everything excepting the pursuit
which their fathers and their fore
fathers followed Many were led to
believe that after all the farm was
the poorest place in the world and
the tendency which the schooling
gave them was to leave the farm at
first opportunity. The science of
agriculture stands on an equal plane
with the other sciences and the more
the schools do to interest and in
struct the pupils therein, the better
the farms will be and consequently
the better the country as whole.

PERPLExING SITUATION.

A news item yesterday states that
Secretary Root has returned to
Washington after his long trip to var
ious South American republics in the
interests of a closer union between
the northern and southern portions
of this great hemisphere. According
to the telegraph reports which reach
ed this country about Secretary
Roots journey, he was met on all
sides by the kindest and most court
eous treatment from our sister repub-
lies representatives; not so much on
account of his being the representa-
tive of the greatest country in this
half of the globe, but more on ac-
count of his mission. During Secre-
tary Roots absence, however, rath-
er embarrassing situation has arisen
in regard to the Cuban crisis, and one
which unless handled with extreme
caution may tend to destroy all the
good results of the stateman's mis-
sion to South America. The United
States today is intervening in the do
nestle affairs of Cuba and has de-
clared Secretary Taft a United States
government official, provisional gov
ernor of Cuba until new and stable
government can be established in
that Island. So far the flag of the
Cuban republic ghas not been lower
ed and Secretary Taft is serving as
governor s-under that flag instead of
the Stars and Stripes. On all sides,
however, we hear talk of annexation
and there is no doubt but that con-
gress might4annex Cuba at its next
session if such were the will of the
eople of this country. But what
rsouth American republics? Sec
tneaRoot's mission was to make
