SOLUTION FOR
DIVORCE EVIL
Beck Took Poison Rather than
Face Disgrace.

Godlove Beck. a Noblesville man
has offered solution to the divorce
evil that is presented as a suggestion
10 Wayne county litigants. Beck, who
is over seventy years old, has been
sued for divorce by his wife. He did
not wish TO undergo the disgrace Of
appearing in court as a witness and so
attempted suicide by drinking carbol-
ic acid. He was saved from death by
timely medical assistance. Beck was
married many years ago and is the
father of four children but has not
lived with his family for twenty years
or more. His wife seeks divorce on
the ground of abandonment.

EVIDENCE OF JUDGE
BARNARD's WEAKNESS.

The ShelbyviIle Republican is re-
sponsible for the statement that Wal
lace K Deem editor of the Knights
town Banner, a Henry county publ
cation. is against the candidacy of
Judge Barnard of that county for con-
sress. and has offered to bet that Bar
nard does not have a solid delegation
from his own county. If this is true.
it adds the last and strongest blow to
the tottering strength Of Judge Bar
nsrd's campaign. Coming, as it does
on top Of the deserved defeat admins
tered 10 the judge last Monday in his
attempt to pack MIR. Campbell's delega-
ton in this county with pro-Barnard
men, it places before the district more
prominently than ever the great weak
ness the republican party would have
to shoulder were Judge Barnard its
nominee. Many reports have come out
of Henry county recently about the I'M
expected activity and enthusiasm of
the democrats there. 1t is more than
likely that Henry county democrats
realize how Judge Barnard would
weaken the republican party in this
district as it's nominee and are prepar-
ing to take advantage of it, if offered.
not only in the district campaign, but
also in the state aud national cam
paigns. The republican party may
well be likened to a gigantic chain and.
with this in mind. it is we'll to remem-
Der that no chain is stronger than its
weakest link. The links of the republi-
can party chain are made up of its can
didates for office from president down
to the smallest county or township of
flee. The calibre and qualifications
of the various men chosen by the party
to fill these places, subject to election
determines the strength or weakness of
the party in all the various localities
that go to make up our country One
link in this great chain is the Sixth
District. normally republican by a safe
majority. But with the lesson of the
last election in mind, the election in
which Congressman Watsons former
majorities were cut to d mere 800, it
behooves the republicans through their
delegates to select for their nominee
for congress the man who can lend the
greatest strength to the party. And
in this connection we doubt if Judge
Barnard, fresh from the defeat admin
istered him in choosing the Wayne
county delegation. and now with the
leak from Henry county disclosing the
fact that he cannot rely upon having a
solid delegation from his own county.
can fill the bill sufficiently to justify
Sixth District republicans in placing
him at the head of their ticket

time to get all appropriation bills fin
ished, the work of revising the tariff
should be well along toward com
pletion. if not completed, at the end
of the forthcoming session. The peo-
pie have been promised revision, and
the business men of the country are
entitled to know as soon as prac-
ticable what rates are to govern the
conduct of their affairs in the future.
There is no use denying the fact that
congress does kill lot of time. and
the thing for the members to do is to
get busy and do this work with as
little delay as possible
Evidently here is a man who can
write tariff bill while you wait. The
thing to him is easy. Give him a copy
of the Dingley law, and a copy of the
hearings the ways and means COM
mittee is granting business men, and
er next day. AS for Congress, it wastes
too much time Ginning" and should
be made to work. A month for the
supply bills and two months for the
tariff, and everything will be ready for
adjournment on the 4th of March.
But this program overlooks several
things more or less important. The
present congress has no mandate to
revise the tariff, and the next one has.
Many members of the present con-
gress will not be members of the next,
and new members will take office in
structed by their constituents as to
certain features of the tariff which
they will voice from their. places. It
is absurd. therefore. to propose that
the present congress usurp the most
important duty of the next. Suffi-
cient unto the day is the congress
thereof.
And if congress kills too much time,
how may the matter be remedied with
out making Mr.. Cannon more of
"czar" than ever? His enemies COM
plain that he is already unbearable in
that role. Shall he shut off eloquence
even more ruthlessly than he is now
deed because this Kansas man says a
"czar' is in need? That would pro-
woke a row of the toughest variety.
And whence the idea that the ap-
preparation bills could be run through
the mill in a month? 1t cannot come
from this town. where people are IA
miliar with the process. Hurried APP
preparations would mean not only
waste, but no end Of jobs. Those
measures call for the utmost care. and
as rule they are in charge Of ex-
perienced men who kill no time either
in committee. or in the house when
the bills are put on their passage.
Still, absurd as this whole Kansas
proposition is, it is no more absurd
than many others made about the
public business here and there over
the country. Some of the criticisms
of congress are so wide of all intelli-
gent mark the wonder is that they
find space in the press. They seem

ATTAINS HIGH SPEED.

Chicago, Ill, Dec 5.-A thorough
investigation of the possibilities of
the gasoline motor car for service on
the traffic does not justify the running
of more than a train or two day is
to be made by the Chicago and Alton
railway. The new gasoline electric
car Irene. built by the Strang Gas
Electric Car company of New York,
is the model used.
A party of officials of the Alton and
of the car company left the Union sta
ed trial trip in the motor car over the
company'S lines in the southern part
of the state. During the three weeks
which the car will be retained by this
line they expect to secure a practical
demonstration of the merits and eff
cheney of this comparatively new form
of motive power.
The car has just come from New
York over the Lehigh Valley and Erie
roads under it's own power and during
the trip demonstrated that it can at
tain a speed of sixty miles per hour.
1t is operated by electric motors
like an ordinary trolley car, except
that it carries it's own power house,
as it were, in small engine room
located at the front of the car. The
electric power is furnished to the mo-
tors through a generator which is in
turn operated by a six cylinder $50
horse power gasoline engine
The surplus of power over that re-
quired for ordinary running is accum-
ulated in a storage battery placed I'M
derneath the car frame and can be
drawn upon when required to nego-
tiate a grade or to put on additional
