The Senator declares his pur-
pose not to be bound by the ac-
ton of the State committee.
Well, let him run an Independent
ticket and see how it will fare.
The Senator's attitude is re-
gretted. 1t will do him no good,
and possibly some harm to the
party. Not long ago the Sena-
tor declared that if the Republi-
cans of Ohio wanted Secretary
Taft he would himself support
him. Let him now keep cool and
watch the people of Ohio decid-
ing the question between himself
and Taft. We think Taft is the
coming man, and possibly Sena-
tor Foraker will support him yet.

Our HooSier Budget.
Portland, Ind, Jan. 6, 1908

We noticed critically the do
ings of Carey Goslee from near
North Star. He came over here
with a rig, claiming it was his
and that he was in need of ready
cash. He struck his cousin, Err
vim Goslee, a horseman here, for
a sale of the outfit, which Erv.
bought, putting up the cash, he
never distrusting his relative.
Curtis got back his rig all right,
Carey got the cash and has gone
west to grow up with the coun-
try, but if Erv. ever gets sight
of him he will get state employ
ment for selling other peoples
property, and Erv. is not losing
any sleep over the matter.
The Democrats were here in
force Thursday last, when the
Eighth district chairman was ap-
pointed, which has set up a howl
and gloriously disgruntled the
party.
At this time Muncie is under
martial law, 1900 of the militia
being quartered there. They
each have forty rounds of ball
cartridges, and if necessary to
shoot some one will get hurt.
We would have gone over, but
we can't run like we could in the
sixties, so we stayed at home
where there is no danger.
Judge J. W. Headington had a
slight stroke of paralysis Friday
but is some better at this time.
Elijah Lyons is in a very pre-
carious condition and his advan-
ced age makes his recovery very
doubtfuE.
Our schools opened up this
morning and our college students
have returned to take up their
work in different institutions.
Trade during the holidays was
very good with the merchants
here. The great financial panic
did not affect us poor mortals.
Even your correspondent has e.
nough cash for a postage stamp.
Soon the G. O. P. will convene
here and we expect a large crowd,
with unity equal to a fiourishing
church. We are for Fairbanks
for president, or any other good
Republican who gets the nomin-
alton.
Christmas has passed and gone
and we are thankful for the ma
ny remembrances, from the lakes
to the gulf coast, and even from
the land of the Incas.
Weather beautiful, times good,
health fair, people happy. A few
in Jail and some out that ought
to be there. Yet we want every
one to have a square deal. Hap.
py New Year to all our readers.

The Passing of Foraker.
BY LEO.

decidedly in favor of Taft; anC
the Republicans of Ohio, at th'
proper time, will do the same
In fact, any appeal to the people
will surely decide il
favor of the War Secretary az
Ohio's favorite son in the forth
coming national convention. The
senior senator is not in it this
time. Probably he never tho't
he could win the state; and
meant no more than preventing
the state from giving Taft un-
animous endorsement. But 1t
looks now as if Senator Foraker
will fail in his effort against a
Taft unanimity at the conven-
ton.
AS to the senatorship Foraker
has already announced his pur-
pose not to be a candidate to sue
ceed himself. He can not be
president, and will not be SEN
ator any longer than his present
term, hence his inevitable pass
ing.
1t is the passing of one of the
ablest men in the public. AS a
ready debater, a fluent speaker,
a brilliant fighter in the political
arena, he has few equals, no SUI
perior. For many years he was
in undisputed control of Repub-
licanism in Ohio, and could so
have continued for years to come
had he remained true to the peo-
pie of his state. Unfortunately,
he acquired great wealth and his
wealth threw him into too much
sympathy with corporations.
When he came to Greenville a
bout thirty years ago, and ad-
dressed the Republicans in the
old Mozart Hall, he was poor and
brilliant, giving the promise of
eventually reaching the highest
office in the gift of the people.
Had he continued comparatively
poor, and steadfast in the inter-
est of the common people, the
presidency would have been his
sure some day. Alas, wealth
seems to have turned his head
and now he is passing.
When the rate bill was up in
the Senate, the only Republican
senator to cast his vote against
it was our brilliant senior sena-
tor, and that against the express
ed wish of his constituency at
home. The struggle for the mas
terry was between the Republi-
can Administration representing
the people, and the wicked cor
porations practising evil; and
Foraker saw fit to cast his sena-
torial vote against the Adminis-
tration. He has been defending
himself ever since by asserting
his right of independence in the
Senate chamber. Of course, much
can be said in favor of that view;
but a senator's independence is
hardly the thing when a strug-
gle against shining corporations
and the peoples true interest is
on. A senator should never for
get the peoples interest.
His vote on the rate bill, and
his talk about it since, disguised
many a voter previously favora-
BILE to Senator Foraker.
Now he is kicking against the
rule laid down by the State com
mittee as to methods of the com
ing primaries to decide between
himself and Secretary Taft. HI
calls the regulations burden
some." Are they more so to one
