Modelled After Indiana.

An article by Amos w. Butler,
secretary of the Indiana board OF
state charities, entitled "Ten
Years of the Indeterminate SEN
tence in Indiana appears in the
current number of the Journal of
General Penology, German
magazine published at Berlin.
The article is prefaced' by a note
by DR.. B. Prudential, of Frank
fort-on-the-Main, who pays high
tribute to Indiana when he says
it is lone of the most advanced
in prison affairs of the states of
the union. DR.. Prudential speaks
from his own observations, for he
was in this country two years ago
as an official representative of
Germany to study the operations
OF the indeterminate sentence, pa
role, juvenile court and probation
laws. After travelling over the
United States he came to Indiana
the second time and, according to
his own words, he was greatly
impressed with the indeterminate
sentence and parole laws in this
state and the manner in which
they are being administered. In
his predatory note in the German
journal he speaks of his high re-
gard for the studies of Mr.. But
Ter, secretary of the Indiana board
in penology and statistics. DR..
Freudentllal's official report to
the German government soon will
be published. Since his return/t to
Germany the first juvenile court
in that country has been estab-
lished at Frankfort-on-the- Main.
1t is modelled after juvenile courts
in Indiana.

The Platform important.

The attitude of a great many
Republicans to Taft is not oppo-
sition to him, but favoritism for
another man. When the conven-
ton is over. and the candidate
named the party will accept that
candidate as the representative OF
the party, provided he stands on
the party's platform. If that plat
form is made to fit any man rath-
err than to fit the party's principles
then there will be dissatisfaction.
1t is the platform and not the
man that must satisfy tfe party.
Platforms, if they mean any
thing, are built by parties in the
conduct and administrative effic-
iency of the parties. These enun-
Citations of principles are not the
foundations of the ideas of few
opinionated leaders, except as
these opinions have been shaped
by party action, public demand
and general public welfare.-Elk-
hart Review.

Karl Rothmiller, one of the pi-
oneers of Marshall County, died

aged wife, one son, who lives on

tire, Mrs. Ed Way, of Chesterton,
also numerous relatives and
friends.
Funeral services will be held at
the Jacoby church, THURSDAY af-

BIG FIGHT CERTAIN.
Foes of the Anti-injunction Plank
Make Final Stand.

The biggest contest at Chicago
is over the anti-injunction plank
proposed by a majority of the
platform committee. Secretary
Taft, who is to be the Republican
candidate for president telegraph
ed from Washington that he has
been for such legislation as that
proposed in the plank for years,
and that he believes it right be-
cause it will protect labor from
abuses from the courts.
Furthermore, the Secretary OF
War, in his call to arms, said that
President Roosevelt is for it and
that the proposed declaration in
fact embodies a Roosevelt policy
and not one that originated with
Taft.
But the opposition is very
strong and is lining up its forces
for a last ditch struggle. The
first indication of great strength
came when Senator Burrows in
delivering the keynote" speech
voiced the hope that no action
would be taken that would tend
to interfere with the judiciary. II
was the signal for a storm Of
cheers from scattered parts of the
house. In view of the increasing
bitterness that is growing up over
the anti-inJunction idea, the gen
eral impression among the leaders
is that the reference in the key
note speech was dropped after
careful planning, and that the
men who made the demonstration
were fully informed that it was
coming and sought by theil
cheering and shouting to give tie
impression that the delegates in
general are against the proposed
plank.
The struggle has suddenly
taken on titanic dimensions apt
has in a day dwarfed all Other
fights in the convention.
AT present the entire platform
is in the hands of a sub-com.
mittee of thirteen members ap
pointed Tuesday. A majority o.
this committee is known to BIZ
favorable to the plank, and al
the Taft leaders expect it to BIZ
placed in the platform without
material amendment; but the op
position is well organized and the
minority report will have such ad
vocates as Little6eld of Maine
Senator Crane and other grea-
Republican leaders and there will
be fight to finish on the foo
OF tie convention. 1t is contend
ed by those who oppose the anti
injunction plank that it is a blow
at the courts unwarranted by tn,
constitution and not really in tn,
interes of labor

Dolliver for Fairbanks.

The Fairbanks boom was giver
a decided impetus yesterday when
Chairman George ID. Perkins oil
the Iowa delegation received the
following letter from Senator
Dolliver:
81 think Mr.. Fairbanks ought
to be renominated in case Mr.
Taft should be chosen. Mr.. Fair
banks has sacrificed his active
relations with public life by &C
cepting the office of Vice Presi-
dent, and no man in the history oil
the Government has proved SC
satisfactory as presiding officer
in the Senate.
IF lie is not available it looks
to me as if we ought to find some
strong man in New York.
IF it is thought that the nom
ination ought to go to the West
let us pick out some bright young
man in the Pacific states, who
could be relied upon to make a
good campaign.

c. w. Miller at Convention.

One Indiana man is studying
the facts and methods of the
statesmen who are attending the
Chicago convention. He has al
ready stored his mental notebook
with so much information that an
X-ray photograph would make
the brain look like a congressional
directory. For Charles w. Miller
of Goshen is expecting to become
one of them in Washington after
the election this fall. He was
nominated the other day for con-
gresham from the Thirteenth
District by the Republicans. He
is being introduced to all Wash
ington notables by the Indiana
senators and congressman, and
they always present him as a
coming member OF the Indiana
delegation in Congress.

HAS ANOTHER
PIPE DREAM

This is from the South Bend
News, Sundays issue.
l.. c. WATERMAN IS
OUT FOR CONGRESS
There will be lively fight for
the Democratic nomination for
representative from the Thir-
teenth district. 1t appears that
the Plymouth convention has Civ
en- rise to hopes of Republican
splits, more extensive than here
tofore, and the candidates are be-
coming numerous.
l.. c. Waterman, a widely
known lawyer of Plymouth, is
understood to be on the verge of
an announcement. He has deter
mined to get into the race, and he
is good campaigner. MIR. Wat
erman has been practicing about
10 years and has served as prose-
cutting attorney. A few years ago
he was a candidate for judge. He
is a good politician and is ex-
pected to make things interesting,
especially in Marshall, otarke and
Pulaski counties.
The candidates so far are Mr..
Waterman, r. ]. Bunnell, the
manufacturer and inventor, North
udson; Henry A. Barnhart, news
paper man, Rochester, r. d. Pet
ers, lawyer, Knox. In addition
Samuel Parker and B. F. Shively
of South Bend are being pushed
by their friends, although neither
has consented to make the race.
There is no lawyer by the name
of L. c. Waterman, in Plymouth,
nor in this county. The News
says he is widely known in this
city. Please tell us more about
him. !.

with the managers of the respec-
tive campaigns, to lay plans for
the warfare, immediately upon
the conclusion of the credentials
committee meeting.
Only 40 of the original 229
contests were presented to the
credentials committee by the
lawyers for the allies. Four at
torneys represented all of these
contests-George T. Buckingham
of Illinois for Speaker Cannon,
Senator W. O. Bradley of Ken
lucky for Vice President Fair
banks, Circuit Attorney Arthur N
Sager of St. Louis for Governor
Hughes and Major F. c. Bryan of
Washington, for the combined
forces.
The great contest is now on
and it is hard to predict just how
it will end, but it is evident that
the Taft forces control and there
will be few changes from the
recommendations of the commit
tee
There will probably be a fight
in the convention on the resolu-
tons and Taft may not be nomin-
ated before Saturday. The allies
concede his nomination, but are
fighting for what they seem to
think is right in regard to con-
testing delegates and for resolu-
tons which they think will
strengthen the party and be best
for the interest of the people.
Fairbanks can have the unani-
nous nomination for vice presi-
dent il he will take it, but his re-
fusal seems positive.

Here is the plank of the plat
form prepared and urged with al
most the big stick by President
Roosevelt to be Incorporated in
the Republican national platform.
We declare for such an amend
ment OF the statutes of procedure
in the federal courts with respect
to the use of the writ of injunc-
ton as will, on the one hand,
prevent the summary issue of
such orders without proper con-
sideration and, on the other, will
preserve undiminished, the power
of the courts to inforce their pro-
cesses, to the end that Justice
may be done at all times and to
all parties.
Now, while there is very little
in that plank that, judicially in
terpreted by the courts, would
do any harm except in cases
where judges leaned toward poll
tics, it is not wise to make it a
part of the platform of the party,
because the party does. not believe
in its wisdom.
Here is the plank suggested as
an amendment, if something must
be said on the subject:
ment of the statutes of procedure
in the federal courts with respect
to the use of the writ of injunc-
ton as will preserve undiminished
the power of the courts to pre-
vent crime and to enforce their
processes, to the end THAI justice
may be done at all times and to
all parties.-Elkhart Review.

SALOONS BLOCK
WAY TO YOUTHS
NATURAL GROWTH
Liquors Dull Mentality and Mo-
rality, Declares the Rev.
Andrew Zimmerman.

The Rev. Andrew S. Zimmerman
preached on THE Church and the
Saloon In the Memorial Presbyterian
Church yesterday, using as his text
What fellowship hath righteousness
with unrighteousness?" He said in
part:
1.-The temperance movement is a new
movement. A century ago the minister
always got a glass of wine when he
made a pastoral call, and the choir got
a quart or more of whisey at every
funeral. Under a wave of temperance
reform our fathers grappled the ques-
ton and had 1t we'll In control when
the War of the Rebellion broke out.
Then liquor became an ally in the sup
port of the government. Since then
every form of vice, opium, gambling,
etc, have allied themselves with 1t. To-
day it is the horror of the church.
What is the church? 1t is a body
of people called out from the world.
1t is neither a social organization. an
ethical society nor a living organism.
1t is a body of men and women who
have found a truth and have banked
their all upon it.
what is the saloon? 1t is the enemy
of every boy, blocking his way for
physical, mental and moral develop
ment. 1t is the enemy of the home, the
state and the church. 1t Is the death
knell of a numberiess host of children"

CIVIL WAR VETERANS
FUNERAL HELD TOMORROW
Home Services for George G.
BOttelberger-Death Sudden.

The funeral of George c. Bottel-
berger, of SO T~wenty-first street, who
died last Saturday afternoon, will be
held from the residence of his daughter,
Mrs. william Braun, of rs Twenty
second street, tomorrow afternoon. The
interment will be in Clinloh Cemetery.
Mr.. Bottelberger, who was 60 years oil
age, was well known in this city, where
he had been a resident for a great
many years. He had long been iden-
titled with the cigar-making trade, be-
ing a member at the time of his death
of Cigarmakers' Union No. 1873. He
was also a veteran Of the Civil War,
having served In the sixties in the
Eighth New Jersey Regiment.
Mr.. Bottelberger's death was very
unexpected. Last Saturday afternoon as
was his habit, he went to the homo of
his daughter. Mrs. Braun, to pile somo
wood. Arriving there he went to work
without saying anything to Mrs. Braun.
When the latter stepped out into the
yard, she found her father lying uncon-
scious ear the doorsteps. She hastily
called aid, but was too late, as the
stricken man died before medical atten-
ton could reach him.
