The INDISPENSABLE Man.

Many individuals ruin their chances
of making Roadway in this world"
says the South Bend Times, 'by al
lowing the fool notion to get into
their neads that they are an indispen-
sable quantity. The better policy is to
take it for granted that there is a.
good fish in the water as has been
caught, and to strive hard to become
equipped with qualities that attract
and never repel"
AS a matter of fact, no man in this
world is an indispensable quantity
The man who apparently is the most
successful and upon whom communi.
ties place great reliance suddenly
passes away, his place filled and no
confusion results. This Is happening
every day. The man who is nsestiuse-
full is most frequently unconcerned
about his indispensability. He rpur-
sues a straightforward course towards
some desirable end, and he, turns
neither to the right nor left to. wiz
the plaudts of his fellows He is
scarcely conscious of the fact that he
is leading. useful life-that his CON
duct is worthy OF encomiums.. While
he is not an indispensable quantity.
his example is guide to others and
there are those who follow and who
take his place when his career is end
ed. So the indispensable man, IL there
be such, is perpetuated. Have we a
man in this community who is indis-
persable? Have we one whose loss
would disarrapge socicty?-Logans-
por Pharos.

Willie Sell Pardoned.

Topeka, Kas., April 9.-Governor
Hoch today granted conditional
pardon to Willie Sell, the quadruple
mlif terer, who has been in the Kan
sas Penitentiary since 1886 serving a
life sentence. A condition of the par
don is that Sells must not in any
manner exhibit himself for the pur-
pose of making money.
Sell was sentenced to the Kansas
Penitentiary for the murder of his
father, mother, brother and sister.
The case has been a noted one.
The murders were committed on
March 7, 1886, evidently for the pur-
pose of robbery J. w Sells, aged As
years, farmer and school teacher,
lived with his family near Erie, Kas..
the wife, son, Watty, 10 years old,
daughter, Ina, Is, and son, Willie.
I6 years old The members of the
family were murdered at night, ali
four having been cut and slashed in
horrible manner. Willie stoutly
protested his innocence and declared
the murders had been committed by
a man who had attacked the mem
bers of the family while they slept.
He had, he declared awakened while
the man was finishing his work and
had chased him as he fled from the
house In defending Sell his attor-
neys argued that it would have been
physical impossibility for him to
have committed the crime as he was
sickly and developed no more than a
boy of 13 years.

No Indiana Applicants

Until the state departmer' promul-
gates its rule requiring applicants for
consulships to be able to speak and
write another language besides Eng
lish, no state of the union had larg-
er host of patriots eager to serve
their country in foreign ports than
Indiana.
Before Secretary Root established
the present dispensation, he account
ed that week dull which did not pro-
duce half dozen or more applicants
from Indiana for positions in the con-
sular service. 1t is said now that
there is not a sin0le Hoosier name
on the list of eligibles. There are,
of course, numerous Indianians in the
foreign service, but they got there
prior to the adoption of the new rule,
and it is presumed that these have acc
CURED at least speaking acquaint,
ance with the language of the coun-
tries to which they are assigned.
1t Is recalled. however. that Indi-
ana's most famous diplomat, Hon,
Jack Gowdy, who held the consul gem
eralship at Paris for eight years,
did not know a word of French when
President Mckinley selected him for
that post, and it is related with patri-
otto pride by all Indianians that he
made no attempt to master the dialect
of the gay Parisians while he was
among them, though it Is conceded
that he made one of the best consul
generals in the service.

AUTO QUESTION is DECIDED.
Attorney General Rules Machines
Will Not Require New License.

Pursuant to an opinion submitted
by Attorney General James Bingham.
Secretary of State Fred Sims has de-
cided that under the new automobile
law. which becomes effective today,
owners OF automobiles regularly reg
istered will not have to make appli-
cation for new numbers.
The act of 1907 provides for larger
and different figures for automobiles
to be placed both on the front and
rear of the machines. A question
arose in the mind of the secretary of
state as to what to do with the 5000
automobile owners who have already
complied with the 1905 law. and
whether they should be required to
pay their license fee of 81 again under
the 1907 law. The secretary of state
sought the attorney general.
Attorney General Bingham held
that the act of 1907 amends the act
of 1905 and is not a new law, as gen.
orally supposed. He holds that no
fee in addition to that which the
owner has already paid can be charg
ed or collected if the owner is still
operating the same machine. Those
who may be operating another ma
chine registered in another name
must comply with the new law as an
| original registration
Every automobile said Mr.. Sims.
unjust have a number under the new
law. The old numbers will not serve
the purpose, as the new numbers do
not duplicate them This Office will
issue numbers or seals under the
| amended act to all owners of auto
mobiles who are regularly registered.
Owners of regularly registered ma
chimes will not have to make appli-
| cation for them. The seals for adj
ministering the new law have not yet
been received. The automobile own
(, srust then provide the two num-
l. 5 for the machine. People who
nave RENTED in payment OF the fee
| from supposed necessity will have
/ the remittance returned to them with
| the seals when the latter are for
| warded The owners of machines
will not know their numbers until
| they receive their seals"

FIGHT IN THE OPEN.
From Now on Between Roosevelt,
and Enemies.

From now on it will be fight in
the open between the president and
his enemies. The time for beating
around the bush is ended, and all the
world will be able to see the prettiest
scrap that has been pulled off for
many years" This was the comment
of a high administration official, who
stands close to the president. Con.
tinuing, he said: THE president cor
daily awaited an opportunity of plac-
ing Hartman on the list of his en-
emies In the future when he wants
to intimate that he doesn't like dema-
gogs he will say that he doesn't like
demagogs like Hartman. The presi-
dent feels that the enmity of such a
man as Hartman is to be courted'
The president believes that Senator
Foraker in Ohio is Matching a plot to
start movement against him. He re-
CARDS Foraker as the exponent of the
anti Roosevelt people, and the White
House is keeping close tab on For
aker.
This statement was given out with
authority at the White House: "The
men who are engineering a scheme
to down the president have a fund oil
s5,OOO,OOO already subscribed TO eff
feet this purpose The trail of the
conspirators goes right across the
continent. They stop at nothing
They will buy newspapers, legislat-
ures or votes is necessary Hearst

ers of this scheme

A Great Opportunity.

Chicago thinks its deliverance is at
hand, and that the sign of it is the
election of Busse. 1t is to be hoped
that the great city will not be disap-
pointed. There is room for deliver
ance, and much of it, and the need
is dire. Mr.. Busse has a great OPP
portunity. He is the first four-yea,
mayor under new law so he has a
long term in which to work toward
large and permanent results. He has
the whole city government with him
and the good will and desire of the
mass of citizens. At different times
during the campaign he promised that
if elected he would enforce the /
o'clock saloon closing ordinance;
close the dance halls where liquor
was sold to minors; suppress gamb-
ling; keep politics out of the police
force and appoint chief whose sole
business should be to maintain order
and protect the public; free the fire
department from intrigue; select
heads of departments because of DEM
onstrated fitness; faithfully uphold
the merit system in the city service.
and generally guide his administration
by sound business principles.
1t follows, of course, that pledges
to do all of these things means that
they have been left undone under the
present administration. Pointing in
the same direction is recent maya
zine article with pictured conditions
in Chicago as most deplorably bad,
saying among other things that the
police blackmailed vice for protecting
it at the rate of 100000 year, and
that half million dollars was yearly
expended to buy the privilege of
breaking the laws The Chicago pap
ers have said that these things were
true So. plainly, Mr. Busse has his
work cut out for him. A man can
at least be honest. 1t is not given to
every one TO be genius in anything,
but the poorest man may be honest.
and if Mr.. Busse makes an honest
effort to carry out his pledges, Chi
cago will be vastly improved. And
aside from the virtue of the work,
nothing could contribute more direct
~ to the material prosperity of the
city.-Indianapolis News

A White House Secret.

1t is stated at the White House
that knowledge of the "cabap alleged
to have been formed to defeat the
policies of Mr. Roosevelt came to the
notice of the president some time be-
fore the dinner at which the whole
scheme was laid bare Persistent eff
forts were made to obtain the name
of the persons who is said to be
responsible for giving out the infor-
nation of the intentions and resour-
ces of the combination but Secretary
Loeb uniformly declined to make this
public

Tit For Tat.

No man can blame the railroads il
they adhere strictly to the two7cent
annie law on both sides, argues the
Elkhart Review. And by the way is
it not as unjust to grant rebate or
discount on passengers in large mum
bers as to give rebates, or concessions
on large quantities of freight? If the
law works one way to compel roads
to carry passengers at given price,
it would seem to demand by inference
that none be carried at less pric.
even by contract The contract is a
concession, granting of special priv
ilege. and why it is right in passenger
traffic and not in freight it is hard
to see.

The farm home of Alonzo Burley,
about eight miles east of Goshen,
was burned to the ground Sunday
night Mr.. Burley had a narrow es-
cape from cremation. To recover a
sum of money he had stored away
he forced his way through smoke
and flames to the second floor. Here
the fire had eaten away the supports
of the floor and he fell between two
joists and was pinioned there until
they were burned off. He called for
help and was rescued by neighbors.
Both hands were severely burned

New Depot for Walkerton.

The L. E. & w. passenger depot at
Laporte is to be taken down and re-
built at this place. 1t is much larger
than the building now in use here,
which has long been inadequate for

ton The old depot here will be moved
to Tyner and the work o. tearing
down the same will probably be be-
