THREE APPLICANTS
Position as County Attorney
Attractive to Attor-
neyS.
DELAY IN SELECTION.

Three applications for appointment
to the position of county attorney
have been made to the commissioners.
It IL believed likely others will be
made. The three local lawyers, who
have expressed their desire for the
office are John F. Robbins, Ray K.
Shiveley and P. ]. Freeman. The Sc
lection may be deferred until after the
new commissioner takes his office.
John Dynes, retiring member of the
board, says he does not think it right
he should join in appointing man
to office, who will not serve under
him as commissioner. He favors leav-
ing the appointment to be concurred
In by his successor. However. Mr..
Dynes says, If the law makes it neces-
sary for the position to be filled be-
tore the first of the year. he will act.
Mr.. Robbins has been county attor-
ney for several years. Mr.. Shiveley
10 regarded as one of the younger
members of the bar. who has favor
able prospects. P. j. Freeman is
pauper attorney for this county at
present. He is also federal attorney
for this district and has held a mum.

the body, will be Frank J. Hall OF
Rushville, a democrat. II is natural
TO expect that in making up his list
of committees he will give preference
TO democrats and appoint them to the
most important places, giving them
the chairmanships of the best commit
tees.
Now the question is whether the
republican majority will stand for
this. 1t will probably not. There is
talk that the senate itself will take
the matter into its own hands and the
republican majority frame up the COM
mittees to suit the majority and then
vote to approve such appointments.
In other words. that the republicans
will not accept the lieutenant COVER
nor's appointments and will make
their own. This, of course will cause
ruction, and it is hard to tell how
far il will extend. No definite pro-
gram along this line has been arrang-
ed, but some of the republicans are
talking about it.

Three Important Things to Be
Considered in Frybarger
Instructions.
TO ESTABLISH PRECEDENT
MANS PECULIAR ACTIONS MAY
HAVE RESULTED FROM IL
ouoRs, HIS DEAFNESS OR HIS
INSANITY.

Judge II. C. Fox of the Wayne cir
cult court stated today the Martin
Chitwood case now on trial in his
court presents complications and pc
culiarities that are different from any
he has encountered in his experience
as an attorney or jurist. The case
was brought in this county upon
change of venue proceedings from
Fayette county. The plaintiffs seek
to have set aside the will of the late
George Frybarger.
The claim is being advanced that at
the time Frybarger made his will he
was a man of unsound mind. 1t is
claimed, further. he was insane from
birth and when he became twenty-one
years old his mother was appointed
his guardian. The witnesses for the
insane. Those for the defense say
he was not insane. 1t is matter
that will be left entirely to the jury
to determine. The defense has intro
duced large number of witnesses
and the sheriff has been provided
with the names of additional ones to
subpoenae. Prospects are that the
case will occupy the large part of the
present week. 1t was on trial five
days last week.
Judge Fox has found peculiar diff
culties in preparing his charges.
Problems are involved that never be-
fore have been presented in this
court. For this reason his instruc-
tons will be of general interest as
they will establish a precedent. The
court will have three phases of the
problem to deal with: the fact Fry
barger was addicted to the use of in
toxicating liquors, the fact he was I'M
der guardianship and third that he
was a deaf mute and his conversation
was in the sign language or by writ
ten statements. 1t will be difficult
for the jury to determine if some of
the eccentric actions attributed to the
man were due to his lack of mentality,
the use Of intoxicants or the fact he
was deaf and dumb.

There is no higher and more hon.
orable calling than that of the men
connected with an upright, fearless
and truthful newspaper; no calling in
which a man can render greater ser
vice to his fellow countrymen. The
best and ablest editors and writer's in
the daily press render a service TO the
community which can hardly be paral-
leled by the service rendered by the
best and ablest men in public life or
the men in business.
But the converse of this proposition
is also true. The most corrupt finan-
ciers, the most corrupt politicians, are
no greater menace to this country than
the newspaper men of the type | have
above discussed. Whether they be-
long to the yellow press or the pur-
chased press, whatever may be the
stimulating cause of their slanderous
mendacity, and whatever the cloak it
may wear, matters but little. In any
event they represent one of the potent
forces of evil in the community. Yours

1t is believed that Kistler will be
chosen, though Stotsenburg has many
followers. There is some talk of Sen

others who believe Senator Cox, of
Marion county, will be picked for the

DISHONESTY IN
GOVERNMENT IS
COMMON FOE
Continued From Page One.)

Sieber, of Akron, o., in delivering his
eloquent address before the "Elks'
Lodge of Sorrow" held yesterday af-
ternoon at the Gennett theater.
The address delivered by Mr.. Sieber
was one of the features of particul-
arly strong program. After beauti-
full selection by the orchestra-the OPP
ening of the services-the Rev. David
G. Huntington, rector of st. Paul S
Episcopal church, delivered a beau
tiful prayer for the universal broth
erhood of man, which was so impress
sive that it brought tears to the eyes
of many of his auditors.
In the hush which followed his ap-
peal to the Grand Exalted Ruler of the
Universe the members Of the lodge,
seated on the stage, arose and sang
their opening ode:
Great Ruler of the Universe,
All-seeing and benign.
Look down upon and bless our work,
And be all glory Thine!
O, hear our prayers for our honored
dead,
While bearing in our mind
The memories craven on each heart
For Aud Lang Syne.'"
Two beautiful selections were sung
by a quartet composed of Miss Marie
Kaufman, Mrs. Will Earhart, o. C..
Krone and Frank I. Braffett. Miss
Kaufman sang solo, 20 Lord be Mer-
ciful."
The eulogy delivered by J. Bennett

worthy to be preserved forever in the
archives of the order. The beliefs

heartel brotherhood he explained to
the audience. Its creed, he said, was
not mirth by day and joy by night.
This impression had been gained, he
said, for the reason that the Elk be-
lieved a smile worth a peck of frowns
and that God loved him who was ever
first in extending helping hand to a
brother man, stricken with sickness
or distress, and who did so smilingly

tenets, he thought, were as beautiful
as the great faith possessed by all

there is need of organization which

FAR-REACHING lnfLlENCE IF
ADVERTISING

The welfare OF Tie nation is to n
great degree dependent upon its ad-
vertisers.
!. At first thought this would appear
to be an exaggerated statement, but
the more it is examined the more
-
true 1t seems to be.
Advertisements of the past were
decidedly crude in every way, but
they are daily becoming more artis-
tic, more attractive, and more educa-
tional. Consequently they are Great
ing an impression upon the juvenile
mind which time will not efface.
But outside of the impression made
upon the younger generation by ar
tistic advertisements, the observer Of
such matters should take into con-
sideration the influence which we'll
built ads. have upon that large class
of people who are swayed, more or
less, by all they read and who turn
to the advertising pages Of a news
paper as the most attractive part of
textbook.
Many people only glance at the
regular telegraph, cable, and local
news of the day, and then plunge
deeply into the news set forth in the
advertising columns. In these they
become deeply absorbed.
This is not the case with women
alone. They take to the advertise
ments as naturally as duck takes

Of a commercial turn of mind are

tunities to make "A few more dollars

estate holdings, to select place or
amusement. and so on.
To many people there Is more news
Of interest to them personally in the
advertising columns of their favor
lite paper than in any other part of it.
Under these circumstances Is it not
safe to assume that advertisements
have a great influence upon readers
of all ages and classes In fact, the
great object Of advertising is to in
fluence the public, and If this influ-
ence is OF an artistic and education
al nature 1t must, II would appear,
have beneficial effect upon the
present and rising generations.
Good advertising tends to form
the character of the people, to soften
and refine home life, by introducing
into families articles OF luxury and
art objects which otherwise would
not find their way there.
Books, soaps, perfumery, laces,
silks, furniture, pictures, draperies,
ETC., when largely advertised in the
newspapers, attract the heads of
households or the younger members
of families. Little by little homes
here and there undergo changes, and
dismal, dark interiors assume a
brightness and refinement utterly
undreamed of before the smile Of
publicity beamed upon all concerned.
Homes thus improved become more
attractive, families become more cul-
tivated and happy, and, in short, the
advertiser does an amount of good
which he did not anticipate, and in
fiuences whole communities while
adding considerably to his bank ac-
count.
