TurkeQs Scarce.

Judging by reports from var
lous sections of southern Ind
lana the Thanksgiving turkey
is going to be a scarce article this
year. The shortage of turkeys
is said to be due to the unsea-
sonable weather of the early
spring. In March the weather
was warm and inc for the season
of the year. but in April the
weather was damp and cold and
young turkeys died in large mum

JUDGE Flu a Hustler!

We know that the public
the thinking public take nc
stock in regard to an absurd
statement to the effect that
Judge Ely, during his incum.
bency has been dilatory OF
lazy. They know that he has
worked harder, if anything,
than any Judge in Southern
Indiana. He has kept ur
with the docket since he has
been on the bench something
that his predecessors never
did. Such roorbacks will
avail nothing to their author
among intelligent people.
The fact is that when
Judge Ely first took the
bench they were behind the
docket in Pike and Dubois
counties to the number of
between one and two hum
dred cases. In Pike county.
there were over two hundred
cases pending that were filed
before Judge Welborn, and
in which they were ready for
trial but which were mott
..ried. Judge Ely, in his
irst year, in Pike county
lot only tried all cases filed
.fter he took the bench, but
lie disposed of EVERY case
hat was pending when he
ook the bench almost two
hundred. The same thing
appened in Dubois county.
)oes that look like laziness?1

inland waterways commission and pur-
poses memorializing Congress to spand
$50, 100000 each year in improving harbors
and wate rways. Another resolution, which
was expected to cause much debate de-

vocates a national law recurring all

WOOD TO RETURN TO MANILA
WILL RESUME COMMAND ON
RETIREMENT OF WESTON.
Bliss Asks for Further Service in the
Philippines-Regarded as Of
Unusual Significance.

There are strong surface indications
that important military developments are
looked for in the Philippine Islands in
the near future. Chief among the things
pointing to that conclusion is the fact
that Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, command
ing that military division and Brig. Gen
Tasker H. Bliss. commanding the De-
partment of Mindanao. have asked for
further service in the archipelago.
Gen. Wood Will start for the United
States next month by way of Europe. to
take command of the Department of the
East at New York, as the relief of Maj
Gen. F. D. Grant. who is to be trans;
ferred to Chicago to command the De-
partment of the Lakes.
Maj. Gen. John F. Weston, now COM
manding the Department of Luzon, will
succeed Gen. Wood in command of the
troops in the Philippines. He will retire
for age In November, 1909. and the pres
ent plan is that Gen. Wood shall then re-
sumo his duties at Manila 1t Is under
stood that Gen. Wood has asked tina:
this be done, and that the President has
approved his application.
Gen. Bliss also has asked that he be
continued in command in the Philippines
for another two years following his pres
ent tour of service in the islands.
These circumstances are regarded as
of more than ordinary significance in
view of possibilities of trouble in the far
east in connection with the discrimin1-
ton against orientals by the United
States, and also with the maintenance OF
the open door in China. When the for
tification works in the Philippines now
in progress are completed (within the next
two years.. the islands will be mill
tary base of considerable Importance. The
administration wants strong man there,
and Gen. Wood is thought to fill the bill.

TOXIC WORLDS FAIR
Great International Exhibition in
1912

TOXIC, October 21.-Japan is about to
follow the example of the west. She is to
have an International exhibition. 1t Is to
be held in Toxic in 1912. The site chosen
is the Aoyama parade ground, which
measures over eighty acres. but some
doubt exists as to whether this area will
be sufficient to accommodate the full
project. If it is not. portion of Shin
juka Park will be reauistioned. The ex-
hibiton committee are at present in treaty
for this park. which would provide ideal
housing for the fine arts section of the
exhibition and also for the refreshment
rooms. and would make all the difference
in the world in the attractivenes of the
exhibitions extsrnals. There has been
competition among the various districts
of Toxic for the honor of the site, and
at one time the idea of dividing up the
exhibition among different sites through
out the city is said to have been under
consideration. This would have been an
unfortunate arrangement and it is well
that the idea. If 1t was ever seriously en-
tertained. has been dropped. The choice
of Baron Kaneko as vice president of the
exhibition has been universally welcomed

CHEZ. WHAT REFA1R BILLS.
New York City Officials Run u
Some Wonders.

1t all depends upon the ownership of a
car as to expense of up keep" No man
is as careful of some one else's car as he
would be of his own. The city of New
York supplies it's officials with automo-
biles. and scandal is brewing for the
reason that many of these have cost as
much to keep going as was the original
purchase p-ice less than six months ago.
The men who have cars at the city's
expense work the graft apparently to
the limit. for no man operating a car
for himself would ever run up bills such
as the city is required to pay. New
York is easy" providing it pays the
amounts charged up. for no mans car
ever eats up money as have the city cars
during their time of operation. Provid-
ing the purchaser of car had to look
