Hoosier Hydraulic
 -'7 Down To Work

The Hoosier Hydraulic Company's big plant is now running in first-class shape. The heavy rains in the divides, amounting to almost cloud bursts, have furnished abundance of water, and in few weeks pay can be shovelied in. On account of the recent dry spell, little headway could be made and the work ing force curtailed. From now on, or as long as the water will admit, a, full crew will be employed and operations vigorously pushed.

Hon. A. P. German

Died suddenly at his residence in Washing
ton. D. c., June 4. The State has lost great
man, and the country and the Democratic
marty leader whose place will be hard to
fill. His friends were devoted to him, and
his enemies feared him, but he always treated
the latter with quiet demeanor that at times
was almost courteous. Some Of his bitterest
opponents in this State became later his
warmest supporters, and only those who we're
not continuously in some fat Office kept up
their warfare against him. kilograms and
letters of sympathy have been received by the
family from nearly every prominent man IN the
country.
In politics, Mr.. German was more than
State leader His genius for political man
agement had national recognition, and he was
known as one of the ablest generals of his
party. He was for long period the leader
of the Democrats in the United States Senate,
and in that body was both admired and re-
spected by the Republicans. Such standing
among the leaders ola great country IS not won
by man of mean ability, and however widely
men may differ as to the extent aud qualify
of Senator Germans public services, and
however severely some may crihcise his 20
Htical methods, all m ust agree that he was a
man Of extraordinary capabilities.
His home life was remarkable for its devo-
ton, and his family was always first IN his
thoughts. His private life was CLEAN IN every
respect.

Fine Western Humor.

There will be State and Congressional
election in Oregon this month, and the great
Republican organ of that State, the Oregonian,
fearing the effect of recent events upon the
public mind, is pleading desperately and hui
morously for loyalty to Roosevelt. "For
Oregon to desert the President now" it pro
claims, would be as base as for regiment
to desert its commander when the fate of
battle hangs in doubt. 1t is all-important at
this moment to convince the plutocratic enc
mics of the President that the country is with
him heart and SOUL
How can the country be with Roosevelt
until it finds out where Roosevelt is? The
last we heard of him he was with Aldrlch, the
representative of the oil trust and the railroad
combines A short time ago he was with the
Democrats on the rate question, with the re-
visionists on the tariff question, and with the
socialists on the question of confiscation OF
private property. Where is Teddy now?

Machnow from the car. He resisted and

Extortionate Prices and the Tariff.

On NAV 23d, Mr.. Aldrioh reported from the
Senate Committee on Finance loint resoiu-
ton providing That purchasers Of material
and equipment for use in the construction OF
the Panama Canal shall be restricted to Srii-
clos Of domestic production and manufacture,
uHless the President shall, IN any case dsea7
the bids or tenders therefor to be ertortioHdte
or unreasonable.
The practice Of giving the President power
to suspend the operation of general law ior
a particular purpose is contrary to our theory
Of government, and if this resolution passes II
will constitute a very dangerous precedent
If domestic manufacturers charge extortonate
prices, the general tariff law waich allows
them to do so should be repealed.
