INDIANA MAY LAND
GREAT AUTOMOBILE DERBY
Only Requisite to Making the Race a
Certainty is Governor Hanly's
Permission to Use Militia.

Indiana, may after all, get The
American automobile derby. The
east has had its Briarcliff race and
the south its Savannah and Ormo nd
races, but attention is now directed
westward, where the Chicago Auto
mobile club is seeking a course for a
road race which will far surpass any,
thing yet attempted in this country
As a matter of fact the course has
been selected, but the consent OF Gov.
Hanly TO use the Indiana militia is
necessary before the race can be held
The course picked by Chairman J.
F. Gunther OF the c. A. c. racing
board, lies wholly in Indiana and so
deep an interest have the Hoosiers
shown in the proposed race THAT petit
TONERS are circulating in several
counties asking Gov Hanly to order
out the militia
Crownpoint, the Scene OF the recent
motorcycle races. will be the hub OF
the course should Gov Hanly make
the event possible. A circuit about 90
miles long has been, picked over the
Indiana roads surrounding Crown
point, and those who have tried it de-
clare record time is possible
1t is almost certainty that THE A
A. A. will lend al the aid at Its com
| mand in holding the race in recogni-
ton of the action taken by the club
in declining to join the secession
movement inaugurated by the Auto.
mobile club of America.

CHINESE TAKING TO BEER.
Indiana Man to Manage Brewery a,
Hong-Kong, China.

Fred Hauswirth, formerly manager
OF the Brazil Brewing, Ice and Pow
err Company, but recently manager OF
the Virginia City (Minn.) Brewing
Company, is at Brazil, Ind, arrang-
ing to leave in few days for Hong
Kong, China, where he will become
manager of 100000 brewery, to be
erected there by American and Ha-
waiian capital. He will take a mum
Der of brewers from this country with
him. but he says that the chief work
will be done by Chinese. The com
pany is attracted to China by the rap
idly increasing demand for beer in
the Chinese empire, the importation
of American beer growing rapidly
since the americans took control OF
the Philippines. Mr.. Hauswirth
smilingly remarked that it will be his
pleasant duty to convert the heathens
from opium to the less injurious beer
habit.

TURKISH WOMEN

CELEBRATE EMANCIPATIO
FROM OLD MOSLEM GUS

IN PU 3 L IC-M E N
CHEER, WOMEN
SMILE.

The veil which has for ages been
the duty of Turkish women 10 wear,
has been torn 1way in the wreck OF
the old regime, and Sturdy. &C
cording to dispatches received from
Turkey, thousands OF unveiled wom-
en- were parading the streets rejoi'-
ing in their new-found freedom.
This innovation is beng welcomed
by the men. VINO cheer the unveiled
women at every opportunity. On
every hand the smiling faces OF wom-
IN are seen, instead of the somber
wells that hid them.
The most remarkable feature OF the
political upheaval in Turkey which
ias just resulted in the granting OF
a constitution by the Sultan, has
been the freeing OF thousands. OF
women, who emerged from the pri-
vacy OF harems, tore off their wells
and marched bravely through the
streets.
The first women to abandon their
wells were those at Monastir, the hot
bed of the revolution The command
OF the Koran that women should APP
pear yelled IN public was Cancelled
by a Moslem priest, who issued his
proclamation from the mosque.
I'VE will help to make the world
beautiful by t.lis act" he declared
Many remarkable scenes greeted the
radical change, but without except
ton the innovation is approved.
Up to the present day Turkey has
been a "theocratic absolute monar-
chy" subject to the direct personal
control of the Sultan, who has beer
at once. temporal autocrat and recog
nized successor of the prophet and
consequently spiritual head of the
Moslem world This theocratim alb
solution has been tempered not onl,
by traditional usage, local privileges
the judicial and spiritual precepts o
the Koran and the privy council, bur
also by the growing force of publ,
opinion and the direct and indirec
| pressure OF the powers of Europe.

ABOUT AUTOMOBILES ETC.

Some people with automobiles are
like children with toys. Because they
will 90 fast. and make lots of noise,
they will open their muffler, and race
I'D and down the streets, under the
gaze of an admiring public. Because
they have escaped narrowly a Jew
times themselves, they form tine opin-
ION that they are immune from dang
er, and give the safety of pedestrian
and horses no second thought
If Plymouth could afford a city
council and marshal as other cities
have, then maybe we would have
some protection from being killed at
railroad crossings, being run over by
automobiles. or knocked off the side
walk by boys ON bicycles.
One little dinky automobile in this
city has the distinguished record OF
killing six dogs in as many weeks
If horse was run up and down the

MARSHALL WOULD
HEAD A TRUST

Thomas r. Marshall Democratic
candidate for Governor OF Indiana,
made an old-time speech Thursday
that raised the hair on end of the oil
Democratic voters and for the mo-
ment set them ON the front seat in
the band wagon. But Mr. Marshall, in
his covert pretesse of standing for
the people as against corporations,
said that the people were responsible
for present conditions that the
proposition was up to them; that they
could have just the kind of legislation
they wanted, and that the kind OF
legislation enacted was just such as
the people had chosen by their selec-
ton OF Lawmakers. 1t was the sys-
tenn, Mr. Marshall said, that he at
tackled, rather than the men who
iOibiCu the SOiiiOAHCo' tHSS simply
took advantage OF opportunities Mr.
Marshall said that he himself did not
claim to be better than anybody else
and that with the opportunities of the
present system of prote elton to trusts
and corporations, he could not be
blamed If he should avail himself oil
the chances afforded by class legis-
lation, and from combines in re-
straint of competitive trade.
In other words, Mr.. Marshall, can
didate for governor, would do just
the same things, given an equal op-
eortunity, that he and his party is
condemning and upon which propo-
sItions they are making their grand
stand plays. If a bill increasing the
salary of the governor should be pre-
scented to Mr.. Marshall, he, therefore
if governor, would consider it his
duty and privilege to sign it. The
legislators, he would say, framed the
bill, and the people elected the legis
lators.
This kind of argument is morally
wrong. Tie people presume they are
electing honest men, but they cannot
4elI what their representatives will dc
in their future legislation.
Mr. Marshall has placed himself
right alongside the class of men tha
he is pretending to condemn, and
with an equal capacity in that line
would be right in some field o. com
mercial enterprise, controlling th'
markets, blocking competitive posi-
bility, and doing the same thing
which he is now on the s'urip con
demning.
