And l, who oft have listless stood,
Where men at sacred altars bow

Want More Houses.

The Mishawaka Wooden Co.
and the Dodge Manufacturing
Co., are both advertising extern
sively in surrounding places for
additional employees. Both of
these flourishing manufactures
are crowded with orders and are
unable to secure the additional
help required. One of the great
est drawbacks to securing the de-
sired help from outside is the
scarcity of dwellings in which to
house the newcomers. President
Mix of the Dodge Mfg. Co., de-
clares that 100 more houses could
be rented at once in Mishawaka
In spite of the fact that every
local carpenter and contractor is
crowded to the utmost all the
time in putting up new tenements
and that this is going on every
year, in Mishawaka, the supply
never equals the demand. Hun
dreds of wOrkmen' in Mishawaka
factories are compelled to live in
|South Bend. Many others come
there seeking employment but be-
ling unable to obtain necessary
habitations for their families are
compelled to leave. The popula-
|tion of the city could be increased
1000 people if more dwellings
were available.

A threshing machine owned by
John Fields, a non-associatlon
farmer, was destroyed Thursday
on the farm of DR.. Word, at Oak
Grove, KY, by dynamite that was
placed in the wheat Two laborers
were injured. There is no clew
to the perpetrators of the out
rage. Fields had been warned to
join the association before at

The struggle which began in
San Francisco and Oakland, Cal,
Tune p and threatened to tie ND
the telegraph wires OF the country
ended Friday when the striking
operators on the Pacific coast al
most unanimously agreed to return
to work.
To the untiring efforts of the
United States Commissioner of
Labor NELL is credited the peace
full outcome of situation that
was daily expected to deal dead
" blow at the commerce of the
country. He first interviewed in
New York, where he established
a settlement. only to see trouble
break out afresh a short time at
terward in Oakland and San
Francisco. Coming West, he Ia
bored in Chicago to bring both
sides together, and then went to
San Francisco to renew peace ov-
ertures.
According to advices from Oak
land. the KEY men will return to
work, and both telegraph COM
panies will then receive an arbi-
tration committee to discuss and
settle matters affecting the teleg-
raphers.

Korea to Gust Ruler.

The abdication OF the emperor
was demanded by the premier fol-
lowing a long cabinet meeting
Tuesday. The entire cabinet
probably will appear before the
emperor in a day or two and de-
mand that h retire, which virtu-
ally will mark the end of the Ko-
rean independence, as the new So
ereign will be completely under
Japanese influence.
The cause of action at this time
is the course of the emperor in
sending delegation to the peace
conference at The Hague to pro-
test against Japan's attitude. This
was a violation of the agreement
made last year Whereby Japan
was to control absolutely Korea's
affairs.
In his audience with the empe-
ror the premier made strongly
worded representation OF the
gravity of the situation caused by
his majesty's sending a delegation
to The Hague
The action of the premier ap-
parently is the beginning of the
end of this ancient empire and the
Inauguration of a closer control
by Japan than that she has exer-
cised since the treaty of Ports
mouth recognized her predomi-
nant influence in the Hermit
Kingdom as one of the fruits of
|her victory oyer Russia
For a long period Korea was
under the suzerainty of China,
but in 1S94-5 Japan drove China
|out of the peninsula and Korea
enjoyed a brief period of indepen-
denoe. In 1904 Japan stepped in
to Korean affairs with. assurance
of safety, independence and terri
torial integrity. Since that year,
however, the Japanese influence
has grown in extent and power
until finally today Korea faces,
in the addiction of the present
emperor, the final extinction OF
her claims to recognition as an in
dependent state, for the installa-
ton of a nominal emperor, select
ed by the statesmen of Japan, will
indicate that Korea is to come
wholly and entirely under the
sway of the Japanese.

Close All Branches.

Acting under the authority OF
an opinion of Attorney-General
james, bingham, State Auditor
Billheimer has refused to recog-
nize branch state and private
banks, and has ordered those
banks which have had branches
established to close them. The
State Bank of Valparaiso has had
a branch at Wanatah; the Cow
ington Bank at Cafes and Perry
vile, and the Brownstown State
Bank several branches. With the
exception of the Valparaiso Bank
the others have closed their
branches. The auditor expects the
Valparaiso bank to close its
Wanatah branch also.
The question came to the audi
tors attention through the exam
nations. In examining the main
bank, the examiners would be
told that certain amount was on
deposit at a branch. To this the
examiner would reply that he had
no authority to examine the
branch. Hence the examiner
could not tell what the exact con-
dition of the bank was.
None of these branches dis
counted paper, nor made loans,
but they received deposits and
honored checks. The officials
contended that they had this
right. The encouragement, in
his opinion, and the auditor in a
letter written by him to the offi-
GERS of one of the banks, took the
position that if these branches
could perform any of the banking
functions, they could perform all.
And, not being permitted to per-
form all could not be permitted
to perform any.

The desperation which some
times seizes the poverty-stricken.
seldom has had more thrilling
exemplihcation than in the case
of Charles Blank, of Des Moines,
Ia, who, in an effort to get money
to send to his sick wife, who, he
says, is in Chicago, laid two gold
teeth and a wooden leg on the
counter of Zacharia Woolf,
pawnbroker, and begged for a
loan.
Woolf says he knew Blank
years ago when he was prosper
Gus and had confidence in his
word.
Accordingly he handed Blank
SS and the latter, minus a part of
his masticatin and locomotion
organs, bobbled to a bank and
bought a draft to send to his af-
flicted one.

Must Abandon Small Schools.

Fasset A. Cotton, state superin-
tendent of public instruction, has
ruled that the law is very imper-
alive in requiring township trus-
tees to abandon all the small
schools in the township. State
Superintendent Cotton has in
formed county superintendent
that the act provides that the
township trustees shall discon-
continue/and abandon all schools
under their charge where the
daily attendance during the pre-
ceding year has been twelve or
fewer; provided, the condition as
to the roads, streams and bridges
permit of such discontinuance.
The county superintendent of
the state are instructed to see that
this law is enforced 1t has been
reported that some trustees have
shifted the enumeration in order
to increase the school attendance
i'm these small schools next year
But this will not change the situ-
alton. as the abandonment must
be based upon the possibility of
an increased attendance next year.

Army Needs Men; Pay is too
Small.
1.-THE trouhIc with the ar

The trouble with the army is
that there is not enough of it. "
This is Secretary Taft's sum-
ming up OF the conditions which
led to the recent statement of
Mai. Gen. Bell. chief of staff, that
there is something wrong with
the army. II statistics prove any,
thing the tables which are being
compiled by the general staff will
show conclusive1y that Secretary
Taft has described the trouble
which Gen. Bell characterizes as
something"
These tables will be used by the
secretary of war as basis for his
plea at the next session of con-
gress that the army be enlarged.
But it is certain that congress
must provide for a general and
large increase of pay of the sol
der if the regular army is to be
maintained at its authorized
strength.
Never before have recruiting
officers found their work so hard
and so Improbable. The officers
in charge of recruiting stations
have for some time been urging
further concessions to newly en-
listed men, in the way of supplies
and certain additions to the ra-
ton in the hope that the change
from civil to army life may be
rendered less discouragingly
abrupt. But the invariable reply
of the department is that the sys-
tenn of supplies and ration as at
present constituted is the result
of long study and investigation,
and the changes, when an increas-
ed expenditure is involved, are
seldom recommended.
A plan now is under discussion
by which it is hoped that the
equipment, consisting Ct minor
necessities drawn by the recruit
on enlistment. may be issued to
him outright instead of the pres
emf arrangement. by which the
value of the article is deducted
from his first months pay. This
system is not always clearly ex-
planned to the newly enlisted
man. and when he later finds his
months pay reduced by half he
is likelv to feel that he has been
uniustlv treated. and this army
life begins with grievance.

The seven central western
states which recently enacted a
two cent-rate law, will hereafter
have the benefit of an interstate
rate between all poins in different
states. The rate became effective
in all large points at midnight on
Friday night. St. Paul, Mime
apo,is. Omaha and Kansas City
were among the first cities to en-
Joy the new rates. All cities will
procure tickets for two cents a
mile from now on. The small
towns and by-points may not get
the new rates for several days on
account of the delay incidental
to the preparation and filing of
tariffs. Before the laws become
operative the tariffs must be in
the hands of the interstate COM
merce commissioners.
Henceforth Plymouth people
will only have to pay 2 cents per
mile straight.

Will They Come Here.

The Hagenbeck- Wallace show
wants TO come to Valparaiso but
protest against paying the 800
license fee. In many towns no
license is charged.
A canvass of the business men
shows that they are in favor of
extending courtesy to the show
and not charging any license.
Valparaiso today is being greatly
benefited by having among its
residents the general business
manager of the show, N. E.
Franklin. He is employing quite
a number of people. The city
council should take. some. action
in the matter. About time Val
paraiso is getting a show.-Val-

Fierce Criticism for Man from
Marie Corelli's Hand.

"Sulk behind woman until
ends are won, then attack her
ways" This is Marie Corelli's
latest criticism of the other sex,
contained in the Introductory
note of a new volume of stories
"They have not either the
courage or intelligence to fight
the world for themselves, and,
seeing the fierce heat of compe-
tition in every branch of labor,
they gladly sneak behind wom-
ans petticoats to escape the gen
eral fray.
when they have secured the
ignoble end of their ambition
they first run down woman's
work and woman's privileges,
then woman's attainments and
woman's honor"
