The immigration Bill.

The immigration bill is caus-
ing the leaders of the dominating
party in Congress much trouble.
President Roosevelt is backing
the Lodge-Gardner bill, which
has passed the Senate, and a
large number of Republican
memberse Of the House want the
legislation enacted. Speaker Can
non does not like the looks of the
bill. He fears it will offend the
foreign vote in many close dis
tricts, but rather than permit a
caucus on the measure, he has
consented that a special rule
shall be brought in for the con-
sideration of the bill. Protests
against the proposed legislation
from influential quarters are
coming in. Cardinal Gibbons has
written President Roosevelt OBJ
jecting to the head tax and illit-
eracy features, and the Jews in
every part of the country are
writing and wiring that the bill,
if enacted, will close to the Rus
sian Jews the only haven they
now have. The present program
is to bring the bill before the
House after the pure food bill is
out of the way.

The healthfulness Of Indiana is
strikingIy illustrated in a bulle-
tin made public by the Census
Bureau. The Bureau announces
that the death rate is lower in In
diac than in any other State
where mortality statistics are OBJ
.tainable.
The death rate in Indiana in
1904 was 1876 per 1000 of popu-
lation which is less than the
death rate of any other state in
The registration district. The
death rate for the entire registra-
ton area was 1875 per 1000 and
therefore the death rate for Indi-
ana was three deaths per 1000
Of population below the average.
Indianas average annual death
rate for four years was 1873,
which is less than the average
annual death rate of any other
State in the so-called registration
area.
The average annual death rate
in Indiana as compared with the
average death rates in the lead
ing countries of Europe is a
splendid recommendation for the
Hoosier State. The comparison
is as follows:
Indiana 1873; England and
Wales, 1917; Scotland, 17.5; Ire
land, 1871; Germany, 20.7; Nor
way, 14.9; Sweden, 1873; Hun
gary, 1858; Netherlands, 1871
Belgium, 17.6; Switzerland, 10;
Spain, 26.9; Italy, 22.5.
1t is seen that the average an
nual death rate in Indiana is less
than in any of the foreign coun-
tries specified.

Summer is a very wicked time
indeed, Rev Dr. Madison c. Pet
|ers of New York, says. He
preached on Summer Sins, .
gambling being one at the Church
of the Epiphany.
Il dare not trust myself to de-
scribe the things which may be
seen in our summer hotels where
wealth abounds and beauty
Smiles said the preacher. "The
harvest which will be gathered
from summer drinking will be
ruined homes, broken hearts, de-
stroyed hopes, crushed affections
regulations blasted, dishonored
lives, tormented souls, cherries
graves and an undone eternity.
If could make you see the har-
vest which will come from the
summer sowing it would make
your hair rise, your breath catch,
your blood chill and would call
forth your deepest commiseration
on behalf of the victims and rouse
your just indignation against the
social custom which produces
such misery"
"Merciful gracious, / will stay
at home this summer" gasped a
young married woman in cor
ner of the church.
DIR. Peters turned to women
who play cards. "The cardplay-
ing habit has become debauch,
and especially among women" he
declared. ''The everlasting con-
test for prizes has made feverish
gamblers of thousands of Ameri-
cans and the craze is rapidly
growing. Social gambling is
gambling no less in the parlor
than in the faro bank. What you
put in your pocket is taken di-
rectly out of the pocket of some
one else. You have simply COM
mitted felony upon the common
purse of society. Gambling is
theft with the stripes off"

The longest days of the year
are with us. Fifteen hours of
|sunshine-or would be, if the sun
could shine-and twilight before
and after leave but a short time
for the reign of darkness. But 4
change has come. The sun has
reached the northern limit of its
long pendulum swing in the heav-
ems which marks the year, and
even now is returning towards
the south. 1t is interesting to note
these limits in the eastern and
western horizons. They are Al
degrees apart. The days are
growing shorter. A little at a time
it is true-one minute in the
morning and another at night
until, six months hence, the num-
Der of hours of light and darkness
will be reversed. There is always
sadness in the thought of the re-
treating sun. The ancients per-
soni6ed it in the myth of Proser-
pine returning to the gloom of
Pluto's underworld, after six
months joyous residence with her
mother on the beautiful earth.
Automatically, these days are
called the first of the summer. In
fact, they are the beginning of
autumn. Suggestive, too, of the
course of the life of man is this
movement of the sun. He starts
in the weakness of infancy, rises
TO the strength of manhood, and
sinks to the decrepitude of age.
But for MIN, alas the pendulum
never returns. Has it an onward
sweep in eternity? This is the
question the world is ever ask
ing.-South Bend Times.

The Fort Wayne Journal Ca
zette, the official Democratic or
gan of Allen county, says:
William Jennings Bryan called
New York the enemy's country
just before his visit during the
campaign of 1896. When he lands
There about the first of August
returning from his trip around
the world, he will find friends so
many that they are already fight
ing among themselves for the
honor of receiving him. The
Democratic Commercial Travel
ers Antitrust league, with a
membership list as long rs its
name, was first in the field and
opened headquarters and began
organizing a reception committee,
but the "simon-pure radical Bry-
an men," headed by w. r. Hearst
quickly got to work organizing
an opposition reception and warn
ing people of their way of think
ing not to accept positions on the
rival committee. Greater New
York politics, as always, is get
ting complicated with what ought
to be almost a national event, and
Colonel Bryan may be greeted
on his arrival by so many sepa-
rate and hostile reception COM
mittees, each claiming to be his
only true friends and genuine
supporters, that it may take all
his diplomacy to prevent a gen
eral mixup on the pier. There is
no better evidence of the genu-
mess of the new Bryan boom
than the eagerness shown by the
New York factions to obtain
seats in the band wagon along
side the leader.

ohio,s New Governor III.

Complete exhaustion and an
attack of acute indigestion forced
Governor Andrew L. Harris to
his bed Sunday afternoon. While
his family believe his illness is
not serious, friends express con-
Germ, as his age, II, is against
him. Office seekers and polite
ians have constantly bounded
him since he assumed the Office Of
governor.
He would not permit his wife
to call physician Sunday, say
ing that medicine would make
him critically i'll.
Should the governor die the
state would revert 70 the control

Williams, president pro. tenn. of
the senate, Democrat, is next in
line for the governorship.

Rev. Morris Peterson, the Swe-

known as fighter and who does
not mince matters in talking to
the people, is showing the people
OF Laporte where to get off at.
In sermon at the. church he
said: ITO be a Christian means
to be Christ-like. l believe thal
some OF the people of Laporte are
more like wild beasts than Chris
tians. Your Christianity is not
skin deep and your lives are rot
ten and you are turning people
away from jesus by your bad liv-
ing. Fathers and mothers, you
are sending your childrens' souls
to hell by your bad examples.
Some people want to be Chris
tians on Sundays and put on long
faces and then go to Church. On
Mondays you put your Sunday
meeting clothes away and your
Christianity in your pockets and
live like the devil the rest of the
week. God help the church men-
bers to repent of their sins and
show the world that Christianity
is something good and every man
and woman ought to have it.

knocking out the Aiken high sa-

Statistics of Death.

An old man, 81 years old, died
from the effects of a rat bite, and
he was only one of 146 persons
in Indiana who died violent
deaths in May. 1t was an unusu-
ally large number for one month.
OF this number eight were muir
ders and twenty-five were sui
cides. Among the suicides, nine
persons chose the carbolic acid
route, three took morphine, two
took potash in some form or
other, two used other poisons,
four were due to gunshots, four
persons killed themselves by
hanging and one sought death by
drowning.
Accidents cost 113 lives. Dur
ing the heavy thunder storms OF
May four persons were killed
by lightning. The railroads of the
state killed fourteen, while only
one life was lost on the electric
roads. Seven old persons died
from the results of fracture of the
hip, and fracture of the skull cost
seven lives. Fractures of other
bones resulted in three more
deaths. Thirteen lives were crush
ed out by falling timbers, falling
stone and other similar accidents.
Six were killed by falls. Eleven
were burned or scalded to death.
The open season for drowning
appears to have arrived also, as
thirteen deaths were due to that
cause. Most of the victims were
boys who went swimming in the
rivers and creeks. One baby and
two adults died from asphyxia-
ton. One death was due to lock-
jaw. Horses killed FIVE.
