THAT $4,000 WORD MESSAGE.

Governor Hanly's message to the leg
islature will consist OF $4,000 words.
That number of words makes a book
of reasonable size and unless it be par
ticulariy thrilling, difficult one to
read al one sitting. The message in
it's original state it is said. consisted of
considerably more than $4,000 words
but that in reading it over the governor
found where he could trim it here and
there without disnguring the picture
or spelling the context.
II the message proves as interesting
as we think it will be it will win for
Gov. Hanly place among Indiana's
long distance literati.
Gov. Hanly has an advantage which
other Indiana authors did not have
when they entered the field of letters
He is sure of hearing, and not only of
one publisher but hundreds of them and
he can rest easy on the score Of being
leniently treated by at least half of the
reviewers

POLYGAMY NOT DEAD.

Polygamy is not dead in Utah and
Joseph s. Smith, president of the Nor
mon church. has recently been fined
$500 for unlawful cohabitation The
courts in Utah have been lenient with
Mormons who We're multi-married be-
fore 1890, when the law prohibiting
plural marriages took effect, but in
this case against Smith the marriage
only dates back TO 1894 Since 1890 a
large per cent of polygamous families
have ceased to exist because every man
and woman in Utah understands that
since that date the law clearly and
positively prohibits polygamy but it is
also wen understood that there are
still many covenants and obligations
that were previously assumed under
the old Mormon marriage customs in
Utah that operate extenuating cir
cumstances and there has been a mag
unanimous sentiment extended to those
placed in such a peculiar position nv
the new law, but the courts could hard
ly condone an offense against the laws
OF the state deliberately entered into
since 1890.

WHEN IT is TOO LATE.

Just at this time when the agitation
for the amalgamation of East Chicago
and Hammond is the greatest there
are unmistakable signs of a decided
tendency in the other direction.
Hammond is preparing to make the
assessment for q new city hail. East
Chicago has authorized a committee of
the council to report on plans for a
municipal building and both Of these
cities are scrambling for territory as
though the future depended upon 1t.
This makes it evident that If ANAL
gamation is ever feasible It is. now.
Later on when the cities have built
costly municipal buildings and have
gone on Independently and constructed
sewer systems, water works systems
and boulevards. each city will be a
unit in itself and there will be very
little in the way OF economies to be
effected.
without amalgamation East Chicago
will build its $4,000 city hall, and
Hammond will build it's $4,000 city
hall. when together they might build
one to cost $4,000 that would be bet
ter than either and cost less.
without amalgamation East Chicago
will struggle on in its effort to build
a canal and will have to contend with
Hammond. which will endeavor to Sc
cure governmental aid in building
harbor through Wolf lake, with the re
suit that both projects will suffer.
without amalgamation East Chicago
and Hammond will eventually spend
thousands of dollars in building parks
and boulevards Independently of each
other and finally they will awaken to
the realization that amalgamation is
a positive necessity and then after
these improvements have been made it
will take a San Francisco earthquake
to make the encouragement of the city
possible

The Life Saving Service.

The Cleveland Leader thus summar-
ICES the country's life saving service, as
revealed in the annual report
No less than 81 lives were saved by
the men at the various stations, while
the total value of property saved was
$12,266.10O. Work that bears such
fruit certainly deserves to be encour-
aged and enlarged, and the recommen-
dation of General superintendent kim
ball that retirement pensions be pro-
vided for members of the life-saving
department is not without merit The
time for civil pensions has not yet
come, but the service of the life saw
ers is one of such hardship and danger
that it approaches nearly to the periis
and dignity of the army and navy
The United States life-saving service
controls as stations, of which 200 are
on the Atlantic coast, sixteen on the
Pacific, one in Alaska, one on the Ohio
river and sixty on the great lakes.

Damming Lake Erie.

rev great public works are Of more
Importance than the one now proposed
by the International Waterways com
mission for damming Lake Erie. or.
more properly, Niagara river 1t is
probable that the dam will be located
near Lake Erie. as the fall Of the Nj
agara river to the falls is twenty feet.
or about one foot to the mile. and the
heaviest fall is in the first two miles
after leaving Lake Erie A gain of a
very few feet would be of great i'm
portance' because the great obstacle
to lake navigation has been the shall
Iowness Of Lake Erie and its connec-
tions with Lake Huron. This prevents
the use Of vessels Of great draft ana
makes navigation Of Lake Erie danger
Gus on account Of the violent effect of
storms on the shallow water.
The mean depth of Lake Erie is only
100 feet and its greatest depth only a
little over 200 feet. Lake Huron is
200 to 700 feet deep. Lake Michigan's
average depth is $40 feet. The great
est depth of Lake Superior is .OOS feet.
its bottom being 400 feet below sea
level Lake Ontario has a mean depth
OF 300, its greatest depth being 738
feet, or 491 feet below sea level. The
greatest depth of Lake st. Clair is only
II feet, but as the lake is only feet
above Lake Erie, dam of any height
would raise it's waters also Lake
Huron's level is 9 feet above that of
Lake Erie.-Indianapolis Star.

WITH THE EDITORS.
HARTMAN.

Much has recently been said con
corning the rise of E. H. Hartman.
The public has thought that it was
rather well informed both as to his
record and as to his present holdings.
but the indications now are that in
reality only meagre details were pub
lished. The Interstate commerce. com
missioner's investigation has revealed
the stupendous scope of his holdings
and the inquiry has just begun. 1t
has been shown that he controls df-
rectly eight railroad and steamship
companies and that he owns stock in
seven others. According to what has
been brought out Harrimans word in
all of his companies is law The in
formation is to the effect that he does
things and that the boards of directors
or the executive committees ratify
approve or confirm all of his actions.
To make 1t concise f. II. Hartman is
absolute master.
The announced purpose of the in
vestigation is to determine the rela-
tions between the Southern Pacific
and the Union Pacific railroads and
other companies controlled by them

CLOSE CALL FOR A HORROR
Engineer, Badly ScaIded but a Hero,
Saves a Train.


Boone, Ia, Jan. 0.--After running
wild for miles at the terrific speed OF
seventy-tive miles an hour, with an
engine out Of control by the blowing
out of stud in its boiler, the Chi
cago and Northwestern fast mail train
No. 10 was barely saved from destruc-
tion by the heroism of Engineer Louis
Shull Shul was blown from his seat
by the scalding vapor and boiling wat
or. Dazed for the moment, and know
ing it was impossible to reach the
throttle and bring the flying train to
stop. the plucky engineer climbed ont
upon the tender and drew himself over
the coal to the express car beyond.
The express messenger, fearing rob-
bers refused him admission. Shull
hammered at the door, and when IL
was suddenly opened by the messenger
he stood in the way with a pair OF
pistols aimed at the head Of the en-
gineer. When Shull finally staggered
in bleeding and half dead he just had
enough strength to reach up and pull
the rope connecting the air brake. The
train came to a stop shortly after. But
for the presence of mind of the engln-
Ger who. at the risk of his own life,
stopped the train a frightfuI wreck
would have resulted.
