Trust Demanded Dividend.

A. F. Knots, who was practically
the founder of Gary. and later de-
posed, ostensibly for nepotism, be-
cause the steel trust seemed to be
afraid he was acquiring too much
authority, has made publ, his rea-
sons for severing his connection
with the steel trust The former may
or asserts that he received carte
blanche orders to build the city, but
the officials departed from the orig
inal plan of making Gary an ideal
city. Retrenchment set in, the or
ders coming from New York, and
Mr.. Knots found himself handicap
ped by the eastern officials, who, he
asserts, looked after everything from
a dividend standpoint. Knots says
that his plans had been widely adj
vertised and when he found they
were beginning to fall through he
quit. He asserts that the steel trusts
sole object is to get dividends out of
Gary and he affirms that Gary even
tually will be worse than Pullman.
He confesses that some of his ideas
were utopian, but he denies that he
was kicked out.

In and About Town.

There is an understandable charm
wrapped within the expanse OF this
littel city of Plymouth for me-
Whether it be the many lengths of
well-curbed, tree-eirded streets, the
winding ripping river, the busy MUIR
muir of TRANS, factories and kindred
industries, or the pleasing stands of
beautiful residences we'll poised on
spacious, verdant lawns, / find it ex-
ceedingly hard to determine.
Perhaps it is the whole in its diver
sity that appeals. AS was aptly stat
ed 20 me some days ago, Plymouth
is one large park. And when gaze
upon the miles of well-paved streets,
bordered by great, well-proportioned
naples, elms and other monarchs,
worthy of primeval forest, know
he spoke the truth.
But not upon the stress alone are
ones esthetic feeling stirred. AS one
strolls along the riv--, where Nature
runs riot with her landscape handi-
work. and pausing now and tlle.. to
gaze upon some enhancing contour
of the waters course or to sip the
delicious, cool, refreshing liquid OF
the numerous flowing wells and then
to realize that all this threads the
throbbing heart of a populous me-
tropolis.-yonrs is truly a beautiful
dwelling place for man.
How often we find railroad town
of this proportion with barren streets
and smoke-grimed, staring houses
that bear down the 1aboring human
currents that pulsate the working
hours of the day. Not so here Nat
ure crowds this desolateness in Ply
mouth TO the very road ballast where
on rush the mighty monsters of COM
merce.
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1907-08-01

The fact that the celebration of the
Fourth of July and other patriotic
policies now frequently involves
American consular officers and even
results in mob violence, has inclined
some of the officials at the state de-
partment to the conclusion that it
would be we'll to include in the con-
sular regulations an expressed in
struction to the consular officers as
to the conditions under which the
American flag is to be displayed at
the consulates.
Trouble has arisen in a number of
cases through the action of consuls
flying the American flag above the en-
sign of the country to which they
were accredited. Especially in Can
ada has there been friction, and on
more than one occasion indignant
Canadians in an outburst of patriotic
resentment, have torn down the Of
Tending American flag, leading to Dip
lomatic protests and incidents.
1t has been found that many coun-
tries have provided in terms for the
regulation of the display of their flags
and it is probably that study of the
practice of these countries will lead
to the formulation of some rule for
the government of our own consular
officers

Yellow River.

Few poems have ever been written
on Plymouth, or its surroundings.
Here is one which we would pro-
nounce good, on Yellow River:
Sweep onward, silent, surging river,
Onward, on, with no delay,
For now the shadows creep and quiv-
er
As your waters ripping sway
Beneath the leaves that seem to shiv
er
With the waning warmth OF day.
While bending low, the branches
lightly
Seem to smooth thy dimpled face,
Yet you pause not, but smile more
brightly
In your guileless, youthful grace
And hasten, as | deem it rightly,
Hasten to the seas embrace.
Fer fleeing past the forest olden,
Past the verdant mead or down,
With colored current tinged OF gold
Soon you swerve to Plymouth
town
And as | gaze, you me emil olden,-
Ask I, why this golden brown?
But you reply not as wonder,
You, amidst these city walls
That seemingly have burst asunder
Grandeur of your virgin halls,
Yet, | deem it no human blunder
For yet beauty DER you falls.
Now DER the bridge the stars are
twinkling,
One bv one they dim appear
Above, then. in thy liquid wrinkling
Seem to slime out ye. more clear,
While, from afar. the cowbells tink-
ling
Speak the hours of silence near.
So | must leave you, Yellow River,
And your iights,your shadows. too,
That glimmer, waiver az you CULVER
Meath the force that hastes you
through
The dropping boughs that shake and
shiver
Midst the darkness, chill and dew.
Charles Franklyn Edgarton.

Strike Tents This Morning.

At 10 o'clock this morning the
tents at the comp of instruction at Fl.
Benjamin Harrison were pulled down
and by noon the troops had all left
for their homes. Last night Gen.
Mckee issued final orders regarding
the vacation for the camp. The artil-
lery battalion loaded its pieces on
the cars last night
Yesterday the battle of Bakers
bridge was fought and won again.
Capt Tyndall of Battery A impro-
vised company of cavalry and
charged the bridge. 1t was defended
by Maj Coleman of the First Infan-
try. Col. G. A. Boyle was umpire. He
decided that Capt. Tyndall's forces
had won In the rush to the bridge
Tyndall was thrown over his horses
head. He was not hurt.
The troops will not be paid in
camp. Quartermaster General Pow
ell said last night that many of the
pay rolls had not been properly made
out.
I'VE will not, said he, dc anything
until these pay rolls are correct. This
will probably be several days. Many
of the soldiers hoped they would be
paid before leaving camp. Gen. Pow
ell is disbursinS officer for the Gov
eminent and will pay the men
through checks sent to the captains
of the different companies.

"Prophesying Some"

The Rev. Sam Small, the evangelist,
and at one time an associate on the
platform of the Rev. Sam Jones,
seems to be in the prophesying mood
In recent address at Kansas City
on"The Signs of the Political Times,
he made this statement:
Charles Warren Fairbanks will be
the next Republican candidate for
president, because he can carry the
east and the south. Not federal
office-holder will be allowed in the
conventions in the south, and not one
will be sent as delegate to the con-
vention. Unless some dark-horse APP
pears, Fairbanks will be the Republi-
can nominee"
Commenting ON this the New Cas-
tie Courier says that "this is prophe-
sying some for fact, especially for a
Democrat. of which Rev. Small is
one, for to the average Democrat
consideration of the prospects oil
Fairbanks nomination is more dis
tressing than horrible nightmare.
But presumably, Rev. Small, who is
candid fellow, seeing the handwrit-
ing on the wall, and being competent
to interpret. considered it his Chris
tan duty to impart it to the people

Is Sorry for the Unkissed.

Dr. Quayle was formerly a we'll
known minister in indianapolis.
DR.. Quayle's daily talk at the camp
meeting has become one OF the most
popular events of the day and is
counted on by all of the audience. He
talks in terse sentences and with a
vigor that keeps thinos stirring in
camp life Some of his epigrams are
"a lily pond can't raise potatoes
If it could they would be soaked with
wae like some women's potatoes

There is not much purity in say

Peary Ready for Last Polar Trip.

Commander Robert E. Peary, who
has practically completed arrange
ments for his fifth dash for the north
pole, it was said this week, has deter
mined to succeed this time or give up
the quest forever Yet he has ex-
IRENE confidence that this time he
will place the American flag at the
magnetic pole.
Within the next ten days Peary
hopes to sail for the North. Supplies
are going aboard the Roosevelt and
her crew of hardy Maine fishermen
and Newfoundlanders have been mott
fed to report.
Peary is nervous under the enforc-
ed delay of his departure, as his ship
was to have been ready July 1.
The explorer is confident that hi;
voyage will be made 50 per cent cas-
Ter by the knowledge he gained on his
last voyage. On that trip he sue
ceeded in getting within ia miles of
the goal and was then forced TO turn
back This time he will travel the
same route and will leave the north
east coast of Grantland.
When he steams out of the East
River Peary will sail directly for
North Sydney, where he expects to
arrive ten days later There he will
pick up his Eskimo men and women
and MS dogs. He will take on his
last supply of coal at Etah, and after
leaving that point will be entirely
cut off from communication with the
rest of the world for more than a
year
Peary takes the wives of his .Eski-
mos with him because they are of
great help in sewing furs making
blankets and sledges and dressing the
meat their husbands bring into camp.
The winter campaign will end next
February, and then will begin the real
dash for the pole.

Not Very Peaceful.

A committee for liberty of Guat-
emala at The Hague has distributed
to all the delegates strong protest
against President Cabrera, of Guate-
mala, accusing him of having killed
his predecessor, of having murdered
thousand distinguished citizens, and
of ruling the country tyrannically.
Don Manuel Estrada Cabrera was
elected president of Guatemala on
Sept 9, 1898, succeeding President
Barrios, and in March, 1905, he as
sumed the presidency for the second
term. President Barrios was ASSN
ated on Feb. 9, 1899.
The manifesto says that General
Barrillas, who held Office as presi-
dent of Guatemala prior to Barrios,
was assassinated on April Z. 1907 in
a street car in the City of Mexico.
According to the confession of the
assasSins General Jose Lima, COM
handing officer of the Guatemalan
troops at Guatemala City, and a
friend and favorit~ of Cabrera, di-
rectly instigated the plot which re-
suited in Barillas' death
Continuing it states that the ques-
ton of the etxradition OF General
Lima grealy disturbed for some time
the diplomatic relations between
Mexico and Guatemala, and mani
festo recently was issued by the Cen
trail American residents charging
Guatemalan officials with planning
General Barillas' death, and in thinly
yelled words accusing President Ca
brera of being the arch conspirator.
The manifesto closed with the fol-
lowing paragraph: THE true assassin
of Genral Manuel Barrillas is the
brazen malefactor who for nine
years has been flooding the soil OF
our beloved land with the blood OF
our countrymen."
