indianapolis Letter in Boston Trans

Indianapolis Letter in Boston Trans cript.
 "I should like to explain for the bene- fit of Eas. n newspaper readers how sissippi Valley came about" said an influential Rep -3lican Congressman of Indiana to The Transcript correspond ent today.
 "I think our position Is considerably misunderst, cd in the East: people think that we are much more religious than we are. much more extreme than we are. Now you know that always drink anythin;; I want at any time I am not total abstalner and never ex- pect to be; and yet am in hearty sym pathy with this movement against the saloons. and find that most of the peo- pie whose practices and habits are like my own agree with me. We have lit- tie objection to mans drinking in his home. Our Indiana law applies only 10 the retailing of alcoholic liquors, but we have made up our minds with tre- mondous emphasis that the open saloon has got to go. The brewers have only themselves to blame for the situation that has come bout.
 "Years ago the saloon keeper was a local product He belonged to the community where he opened his saloon. just as d!d the grocer or the butcher, and he was often, particularly if he was a GeFman.-a- good eitiae.t.. But the brewers. not content with this. began to run saloons of their own. putting in charge of each one a hired bartender with a. cash register. and they were not at alIepart.c ular about the sort of tnl- ent that they employed In one town that I know of. three of their repre- sentatiVes were ex-con? ?icts. No route for an interuFban railroad was more deliberately worked out than the line of saloons (which the brewers set up: they saw a"loeaiity with a lot of ne- negro bartender it would support one saloon. and so they put it in. They would find an Italian to run a saloon in an Italian quarter. nd tl.elr eyes were constantly out to see how much busi- ness for saloons any community would provide, and they sprlnkled them in here and there wherever there was an opportunity by so doing to work of their goods.
 "They were defiant of the law. Whenever the authorities tried to pre- scribe terms and conditions of saloon operation. the brewing interests of the State seemed to think it was smart thing to eVade or override or disregard them. They went into politics with this in view. They tried to stake out representatives in various localities who would become so prominent in pol itics that the saloon interest under them would be safe. Meanwhile. the saloons continued to grow as breeders of vice and crime. The people who en- ioy a drink, as I do. do not enjoy sec ing, as have often seen, young far

Vote for It.
Mnhila Item

D
 One of the propositions which will
 be submitted to the voters of Ala bama on next Tuesday will be the amending of the Constitution to allow | people in the several sections to vote | for or against the new counties The question Is not of special import to Mobile County at the present nor is it | likely to be in the near future. It is, however. a question. which is of para certain sections of the State, and those favoring the new counties amendment are appealing to the voters of Mobile County to give the measure their shp- port.
 One of the fundamental principles of the Democratic party is focal self
 government" This measure is purely counties in the State which. reographi-
 cally. need subdivision. Principally
 of these Is Jefferson. at present the leading county In the State. The peo-
 pie in the southern portios of the coun-
 ty feel that there is need for a new county and their argument Is a whole
 some one. Bessemer, the largest city
 in the proposed new county, presents many arguments. which are fair and reasonable
 r.. Again. in the upper and western DOT tions of Marengo County are many people who desire to power. constitu- tionally. to make a subdivision of Ma rengo and other counties. Especially Is this matter of import to the people of Demopolis and other towns in the northern and western portions of the county. The people in these counties are waging warm. but frank and open
 light for the amendment. and the'- are appealing to our people in support of the measure.

Worthless Grand Jurie.

Appleton's Magazine
 It seems to be an impressive fact mat those who are closest to the work ings of the grand jury have the great est contempt for 1t. particularly for Us pliability. It's inability to appreci. ate its own functions.
 There is a man in one of the parts or the Court of General Seasons in New York who has been a student of the grand jury and Its methods, it's weakness. its ,servility at times. It's ig- norance often, and It's childish acqui. essence in the directions of prosecut- ing attorneys. He has no illusions and sharp tongue. Talking with him one day about the grand jury system he said:
 occasionally we have grand jury that knows It's business. or. to put 1t differently. that possesses common sense and uses 1t. The theory of most grand juries Is that they are to indict, to spass it along to put 1t up to the petit try. We have had grand tu- ries here who were tickled to death when they handed up thirty indict. nlents in day. Just imagine thirty indictments for less than three houra' work Their chief concern was the making of statistics.
 We have twenty-tiree men on a grand jury, each theoretically intelli- gent, alive to his duties, eager to do exact justice. Actually, not more than five on an average take any real part in the deliberations. With the others the sayso of the district attorney counts for everything A competent foreman sometimes wakes them up When the grand jury Is carefully charged there Is reduction in the number of indictments. But. indict- ments are turned out with, the utmost ease-sc easy that I wonder if the oath which the grand jury men take Is not absolutely superduous.

STANDARD OIL HEARING.
Governments Suit to Dissolve the Big
 Corn0ruf4On.


 New York. Oct. 30.-Counsel for the Standard oil Company had the day in court today at the hearing in the Gov ernment suit to dissolve that corpor- ation. They called many witnesses for the purpose of showing the Standard on's price making and price cutting policies at various times.
 Walter S. Barker of Washington. dealer in general hardware and oils, testified that in 1901, when he was buying oil from the independent oil companies for 1-2 cents a gallon, the Standard was charging 10 cents. and that the Standard then began to make cuts. At length he received quota ton of 1-2 cents from them also. A. Gordon, a grocer in Riverdale. Md. testified that the independent oil conn pany offered him cash rebates of half a cent a gallon from the Standards price, and he gave them his trade.
 Leopold Frye. formerly the Stand- ard Company's salesman for Philadel- phia, testified that his company lost about 500 customers following a cut of one-half cent per gallon by rival company.
 Although several witnesses testified as to means by which independent companies had cut into the Standards s

HARD wINTER-GEEsE PREDICT.

Friends. you can gamble on it.. said the long-whiskered man in the grocery store last week. leaning against the sugar barrel, its going to be a hard winter"
 How do you figure that out?r asked city salesman, who was waiting for an order.
 'All the signs Is jest pointing to It" replied the rural meteorologlst, aim. Ing accurately at a sawdust box
 I'd like to hear some of them. un-
 Wal. the crows is flying south. an last night I heard a flock of wild geese honkin' along in the same direc. ton. They're two powerful signs nev- CT knowed to fail. Up the creek Jake Martin brought down a goose with his old muzzle-loader, an, he. says its bones was real thick, again showin' a bad winter. don't know if he studied the red spots on the breAsthone. But know myself that the muskrats are building extra strong houses and the squirrels are laying up nuts like they thought they'd need 'en before tlle winter was over. The squirrels cant come to the store here. like men, when their grub runs short. and so they jest bank up enough for a long, hard season.
 You think the animals save up ex. tra food when the winter is going to be .bad7"
 No guessing about 1t. friend. What would be the use of animals knowing if they didn't use what they knowed? Every animal fixes up different for the winter according to his need. The beaver cuts up his winter stock of wood extra early, and the mole he makes a clay cellar an fills 1t with nice fat worms. The worms is the same as fresh beef to the mole, and he lives high though he stays underground If the worms is few, the winter is mild. Another sign you got to watch out for Is the pelt. The skunk and the bear and all of 'ern gets a thick coat of fur when tough season Is coming. They don't buy 1t; they grow 1t. May be a young animal Is foolish and don't put on the fur he ought to, but he learns better when he gets older. l never see a middle aged animal that didn't know how to dress proper"

Getting a Good Husband.

LOUIS HSpuO1lC-
 Perverse man is not practical in ..ls love- making. He Is apt to undervalue the beautitudes of a good home until he misses them after marriage. Dur ing his days of cOurtship his thoughts do not run to the cook stove and the housecleaning He Is prone to grumble and be sour if these thinps do not go right after marriage, but he is not often caught by a recommendation for good housekeeping. Until the disillu- sionment comes he takes 1t for granted that his charmer Is perfect in all things We have 1t from high clerical authority in St. Louis that brains of as high quality are needed to make a good home as are called for on the successful management of a lawsuit. But the woman who is i~ pursuit of a good husband will not claim that she has the same sort of brains that are in the head of the lawyer, She may have better brains of a different kind. and she may know it. But what is the profit of considering all the devious ways in which woman beguiles man? It Is held that once a woman has picked the raw material for a good husband she can do all the courting herself make him think that she IS difficult of pursuit and marry him with un- erring certainty. She often does IL. How she does 1t Is beyond the cdfhpre- hension oA mere ma

ROCKEFELLER AND CARNEGIE
 ARE RIDICULED BY KERN

Indianapoifs. Oct 30.--John D. Rockefeller and Andrew Carnegie were made the targets of ridicule by John W. Kern in a speech tonight
 "A precious pair of disinterested pa- triots." he called them, for their cham pioning of the Republican Presidential candidate.
 Mir Kern's comments were called forth by the published statement that MT. Rockefeller intends to cast his vote for Mr. Taft. The meeting was the final one of the days series. Mir. Kern on arriving here tonight, was escorted to Tomlinson Hall by large body of marchers under the direction of the Indiana Democratic Club. He was noisily welcomed.
 Carnegie makes an appeal to the people" said Mir. Kern. the very peo- pie whom he has been Numbering for more than a quarter of century. to that the plundering may continue through the generations of the flu. ture.
 What does Rockefeller say7 He declares that Mir S Taft has the proper temperament to suit him and that from his standpoint Mir. Taft is entirely fit to be President of the United states.
 "T am supporting Mir. Taft he says further. because his election will . - For law and order. John D. Rockefel- Ter. whose company was the recipient of that great judicial prize package. $29,000, 900 fine a few months ago!
 Rock efeller and Cargenie: What precious pair of disinterested patriots are these two men who now, side by side, charge to the front in behalf of Taft and good government. Is there nothing In this spectacle to move you. my Republican brother? You have heard the animadversion of Roosevelt on Rockefeller. as a man who has broken more laws and trampled on the rights of the people, more than any other man Tn this country. Does 1t mean nothing to you that Rockefeller and Carnegie should find a reason for supporting the Republican candidate? My dear Hartman had already thrown his support to Taft before the appear ance of Rockefeller and Carnegie on the scene. There are 400 monopolies in this land breaking the laws every day, and every one of them Is for Taft. They stand together election after election as a solid wall Do you stand together? They do not iTnpePil their .saaccess-h -hsr. dividing Into factions. If you. the people. would follow their ex- ample and stand together. you would present such a front as would enable you to right every wrong that exists in this country today. And so I ask that you do your part at the polls to bring this Government back out of the hands of oligarchy of wealth into which 1t has fallen to the people to whom it rightfully belongs"

What He Forgot

"At a dinner in Philadelphia" said a clergyman to The Washington Star "I once heard the lamented Bishop Pot ter talk in a most amusing manner about the artistic temperament.
 Landor,' he said was at the same time the most violent and brutal and most delicate and sensitive of men. He adored flowers. Tho gardens of his beautiful villa in Florence were full of flowers. and the poet walked among them daily, never plucking them only bending to admire their loveIiness and their perfume.
 'Landor's cook one day served him a wretched dinner. and in his rage the poet threw the man out of the window into bed of splendid roses.
 "As the cook writhed with a broken leg below, Landor from his window ex- claimed in a horror-stricken voice:
