INDIANA, s SONS.

There is more truth than poetry in
what was said about the literary
standing of Indiana. In fact, when a
Hoosier rises to explain a few facts
as to the achievements of his fellow
Hoosiers there is look Of absolute
surprise on the face of the cultured
East. Such celebrities as DR.. Schlei-

A SURRENDER WOULD END THE


Last year the government began suit
lawful relations OF the Hartman lines.
The Union and Southern Pacific. the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa F'e, and
Oregan Short Line were among the
roads mentioned in the complaint.
Some testimony has been taken, but
1t will be long time before final &C
ton can be had, no matter how vigor-
ously the suit may be pushed.
The president of the Hartman lines
and his lawyers are in Washington con-
ferring with President Taft and the at
torney general about this suit. They
wish to settle it amicably. but the
terms which they have proposed are
not known. If they were such as the
government could accept it would no
doubt be glad to dismiss the suit. Then
1t could get rid of one bit of dragging
litigation and take up something else.
Unconditional surrender" by the
roads which have been sued would end
the controversy. If they were to
come down like Capt. SCOTS coon,
the department Of justice would not
fire at them. And why should not
they do this instead of going on with
a losing fight? They see what a hard
time other great law-breakers are hav-
ing in the courts. They see that the
legislation now on the statute books
is to be made even stronger. There
Is no abatement of popular hostility
to the practical merger Of railroads
which should be competitors. It
, would be triumph Of wisdom for the
Hartman roads to seek safety by sub
mission.-Chicago Tribune.

Notes.

An agreement has been prao-
tically made that all bills shall be
printed.
At Representative w. H. McCaskill's
invitation. the house and senate met
Tuesday afternoon at 4 O'Clock in the
house chamber and devoured several
crates of cantaloupes presented by the
farmers Of the Arkansas valley.
The suggestion has been made that
II the initiative and referendum 10
passed. it should be with the proviso
that at least so per cent OF the voters
taking part in the election in question
must vote on the proposed law, other
wise the vote is void.
Representative Helbig was asked
directly by the chairman II his bill was
intended to vitiate the local option law.
He replied that 1t would not affect the
law at all. unless the people wished to
use their own discretion in the matter
