STRANGE INCONSISTENCY.

The Argos Reflector is making
a vigorous fight for county local
option and the election OF a Re-
publican legislature who believe
that the people ought to rule and
have a right to regulate the liquor
traffic by their votes. In this mat
ter Editor Wickizer is certainly
right. But strangely, it seems to
us, he recommends the election OF
Henry Barnhart to Congress, he
says, because Bamhart is a better
temperance man than Charles w.
Miller. Mr.. Barnhart is travel
ing over this district doing all in
his power to aid the brewerieS TO
dsfeat county local option and
elect a legislature that will send
Thomas Taggart to the United
States Senate, where for six
years he can aid in defeating any
national temperance legislation.
Mr.. Miller stands squarely on the
Republican platform in favor OF
local option and will vote with
the Republican party in congress.
Ii Barnhart goes to congress he
will vote just as Tom Taggart
tells him to vote. He will be con-
trolled in congress by the same
influences that control him now,
the Democratic party and the
breweries. Personally both Barn
hart and Miller are temperance
men,, but Barnhart shows in his
present canvass ahat he has to
obey the orders of his masters
and support the liquor interests
in state and nation.

RAILROADS ARE
GETTING GOOD
SHIPPERS GET BENEFIT OF
RECENT SLUMP-A L L
FREIGHT is NOW
HANDLED WITH
REATE
CARE.

The recent slump in the freight
traffic has taught the railroads a
number OF lessons which have
proven beneficial to the shippers,
chiefly among them being the ne
cessity OF handling with as little
delay and damage as possible,
the conSignments. During the last
few months, the above has been
the subject of numerous circulars
sent out by the officials of local
roads and posted ON the train
mems bulletin board. Handle
the freight as carefully and as ex-
peditiously as possible is the slo-
gan adopted by the officials, and
they are trying to drive it home
into the minds of the employees
who come in direct contact with
the freight.
When the railroads were seri-
ously hampered by not beng able
to handle all the business offered
by the shippers, little attention
was given. 1t mattered little
whether the shipments arrived at
its destination in good or bad or
der, just so long as no damages
occurred. Now the Situation has
undergone a material change and
with every road in the field fight
ing for every available bit on bust
ness, it behooves each and every
one to see that more care Is exer-
cised in the handling. Let a ship
per ask for an empty, and he is
promptly obliged, the average
freight agent, if he is serving his
employers IN the manner that is
expected of him, being more than
willing to go out of the usual
bounds to abide by the shippers
wants, as long as there is business
in view.

HARD WORK WILL WIN

Republican success in Indiana
this year depends upon hard
work. The Democrats are we'll or
gained, have a barrel OF money
furnished by the breweries, dis
t~illeries- and Tom Taggart, and
they are enthused with hopes ol
victory.
Democrats are not only openly
active, but the seductive dollars
the soft voice, and the gum shoe
methods OF Taggart are also to be
reckoned with. He knows how &c
use these in promoting any
scheme that will help Taggart
and he is playing for a bigger
stake in this campaign than ever
before. He believes that his meth
| DDS will enable him and his brew
Grey friends to carry the cities oil
indianapolis, Evansville, Terre
Haute and South Bend and thus
secure a majority in the legislat-
ure that will elect him United

1t is up tor the good people OF
Indiana to block that game with
their votes. 1t is their ballots
against the Doodle and pernicious
work of Taggart and The brewers
that will win, and save the state
from the disgrace of sending Tag
CART to the United States senate
and giving the brewers absolute
control of he next Legislature.
1t is necessary that all good cit
liens OF Indiana realize this feat
ure of the campaign. 1t should
be recognized that hard work is
necessary to save Indiana from
almost everlasting disgrace. Tag
CART and the brewers must not
be allowed,to control the mold
able and mutable voters.
This means that the every day
voter, the common citizen, can do
more work than the platform ora
tor. 1t is now up 10 the plain
citizen, the patriotic farmer, bust
ness men and working men of In
diana to say whether the people
shall rule or Tom Taggart and
the brewers shall rule the state.
The people have the power OF
numbers and they have the right
to rule. Every man who loves
the states good name is now call
ed upon to prove that he is
worthy of being called d citizen
of Indiana. This is no forlorn
hope, the people have the num-
bers and can rule if they choose
to do SO. But work, u~nceasing
work until election day is needed
Every man can influence some

good arguments to help them
County local option and the de-
feat of Taggart are the state is
sues this year. Every man who
wants good state government and
decent United States senators
should 90 to work now. Many
young Hoosiers will cast their
first vote this year. rhey ought
to cast their votes in favor of de-
ceucy and good government. Our
Prohibition friends should be pre-
vailed upon and persuaded to vote
for the Republican candidate fol
governor and the legislature in
stead of casting their votes to as
sist the liquor interests. In every
voting precinct in Marshall
county are Democrats who are
opposed to Taggartism and they
should cast their votes against a
candidate for the legislature who
approves his methods and will
vote ito send him to the senate
This means work but nobody
should be afraid of work in a

IS more than party gain.
