BAD BOYS SPANKED.
Principal Of High School Ad-
ministered Butter-paddles
With Telling Effect.
CULPRlTS AVOID PUBLICITY

Chastisement with butter paddle
was administered by Prof. c. w.
knouff. principal OF the high school
to nine boys, yesterday. Three of
the boys were punished for sprinkling
caacho0. violent sneeze-powder in
the study rooms. The six others who
were punished had violated the rules
in different ways and this means of
punishment was administered in order
to hurt their pride rather than their
feelings.
The boys declared that the paddle
had stinging sensation but that the
punishment did not hurt very long
afterwards. The whippings took place
in the engine room. Prof. Knouff
made statement in the study room
stating that he regretted that he had
to administer corporal punishment
but circumstances were such as to
make 1t necessary.
The punished ones assert they
would rather not have their names
published, as their parents are Palla
dunn subscribers.

bring telephone and telegraph lines
under governmental regulation.
Finally Senator LaFollette cut the
Gordian knot. He suggested as a
substitute for the Dixon amendment
a simple provision without details pro-
viding that hereafter telegraph and
telephone companies should be under
the supervision and control of the In
terstate Commerce Commission.
Hale looked disguised, but he could
not plead that the senate needed time
to consider such simple PROPOSE
ton. Dixon accepted the La Toilette
substitute and 10 was adopted by a
viva voce vote.
Bailey HurIs Platform Def.
This victory for the progressives
followed upon the heels of a defeat.
The Dolliver amendment, regulating
capitalization with a view to prevent
ing stock watering, failed to carry,
there being nineteen votes for it and
forty-seven against it. During the con-
sideration Of this amendment an ami
mated discussion arose as to whether
or not democrats should stand on their
party platform, which declared against
overcapitalization.
Senator Bailey led a detection from
the platform and was roundly scored
by Senators Stone and Newlands. who
spoke for party regularity. Bailey is
sued one of his defiant declarations
of independence" which have be-
come common occurrences, in which
he declared that no party platform
could bind him to vote against pro-
position he considered wrong. Six
teen democratic senators voted against
the Dolliver amendment
Beveridge With Minority Voters.
The affirmative vote on the Dolliver
amendment was cast by Senators Bev-
eridge, Borah, Bourne. Bristow,
Brown, Burkett, Burton, Clapp, Craw-
ford, Cummings, Dixon, Dolliver, Gam
BILE, Jones, La Toilette, republicans;
and Chamberlain, Newlands, Purcell
and Stone, democrats.
The effort of Mr. Brown of Nebras-
ka to present his amendment reviving
a portion of Sec. IL. prohibiting all
common carriers from acquiring any
interest whatsoever in the capital
stock of or purchasing or leasing any
railroad which is competitive with
that of the purchasing company was
more than the senate was willing to
accept. Many protests against immed.
late action were uttered. and when
Senator Bacon moved to adjourn a
large number of senators acquiesced.

LEAGUE MAGAZINE HAS
ARTICLE ON QUESTION
Detailed Study of the Situation
Shows That Law Made Two
Years Ago Is in Danger of
Early Repeal.
palladium Specially

Indianapolis, May 2S.-The Anti-Sa-
loon League is urging the temperance
people over the state to go to work
actively and seek to nominate dry dem
ocrats and dry republicans for the
legislature. Only in this way, it says
can the safety of the county option law
be assured
In the current number of the Ameri-
can Issue, the official organ of the An
ti-saloon league the leading article is
along this line. 1t is a direct appeal
to the temperance forces of Indiana to
protect the local option law and pre-
vent it's repeal. The paper says:
That the county option law is on the
statute books because it was q repub.
lican measure two years ago is unde.
niably true, although it took democrat
ic votes to pass it.
That the county option law was
saved from repeal year ago because
the republican party as an organiza-
tion was back of it, is also largely
true, although 1t took democratic votes
to save it.
But that in actual operation it has
proved non-partisan Is shown by the
fact that democrats, republicans, pro
hibitionists, socialists and labor party
men have united in local option cam
paigns to drive out saloons.
Not q single county has gone dry
unless it has been by the federation OF
the temperance forces of all political
parties. thus lifting the question out OF
the realms of partisanship entirely.
Wherever that has not been done, the
temperance forces have been defeated.
Forty-six counties which elected dem
Ocratic representatives to the Iegisla-
ture two years ago have held local op-
tion elections. OF this number thirty
six went dry by majorities aggregating
F.12a Ten other counties went wet
by majorities aggregating II 1885, How
ever. the net dry majorities in these
foTty-six counties was $3.50.
Thirty-six counties which elected re-
pubiicans to the legislature two years
ago have held elections under the local
option law OF this number thirty.
three went dry by majorities aggrega-
ting 39,S4S- Three went vet by ma
jorities aggregating 1889.
Thus It can be seen that the net dry
majority in the thirty-six republican
counties has been 81. .949. In AL Of the
eighty two counties which have held
elections m aggregate dry majority
against the saloon Of 74.338 has been
cast Under these conditions who can
doubt the popularity OF the county op-

STATUE wins c. A. R.
Promise of Bronze Likeness OF
Indiana's War Governor
Gets Encampment.
FOR COURT HOUSE YARD

Perhaps the most forcible argument
advanced by the local delegates to the
G. A. r. encampment at Terre Haute
in an endeavor to secure the encamp-
ment for Richmond next year, and the
one which had the most effect in ac-
complishing the desired end, was the
fact that bronze statue of Oliver p.
Morton, Indiana's war governor is to
be erected on the court house lawn.
The prospect proved too great treat
for the old soldier to resist and with
one accord they voted to hold the 1911
encampment in Richmond.
While no definite plans have been
formulated as yet, regarding the plac-
ing of the bronze statue on the lawn
OF the court house it is the intention OF
the members of Sol Meredith post and
the Young Mems Business Club to
speak to the county commissioners of
the matter and ask them to make a
donation. The statue will be made
from the plaster cast OF Governor Nor.
The cast was made some time ago by
Sculptor Niehaus. who made the
bronze statue from it and placed it
on exhibition In the hall of fame at
Washington. 1t will require about
5000 to make bronze statue. The
cast is very fragile and great care is
being taken to keep it from being
broken.
The old veterans are very anxious
that the statute be made. When ac-
quainted with the intentions of the
local organization at Terre Haute,
their enthusiasm was unbounded and
all expressed the hope that the plans
would be carried out.

WILL be 4 BIG AUTO
YEAR AMONG Purchasers
Good Roads and Cheaper Cars
Doing Much TO Develop
Outlying Districts

Windsor T. White. president of the
White company OF Cleveland, returned
recently from a tour of the west.
In an interview he states that he was
simply surprised at the prosperity OF
the farmer everywhere; surprised at
the home and the home comforts en-
loved in every state and territory
Crops have been good. the prices are
good and the farmer has money. lie
Is no longer the hand-to-mouth Ia
borer, but a positive force in the finan-
cial situation, and he knows 1t.
Mr.. White states that he was most
particularly impressed with the con. :
dition of things in the newer states OF
the country, especially in Texas and
Oklahoma. Most of us" said Mr..
White, have an idea that the farmers
of this section are living in shacks
without any of the comforts OF our
northern civilization, and for this very
reason most of us have something TO
learn. 1t is simply astounding 10 see
what really pretenttous homes one
finds on the majority OF farms throush-
out the west and northwest. Ihe
homes are comfortably equipped with
every modern appliance and the barns
are filled with modern machinery, ana
there is every evidence of real pros
perity. ~
"In Texas the cotton crop was ex-
ceptionally good and the price is hlgA,
so these farmers are very enthusiastic
about automobiles. which of course, L
was down there to find out about, 1t
being my line. Perhaps it Is because
| was listening for it, but l heard
about as much talk on the long stroke
engines and the way cylinders are cast
as | did about the market price OF
farm products"
The automobile manufacturers report
large sales in all rural districts. The
auto-omnibus is becoming an estab-
lished institution. Up in ST. Lawrence
county one of these cars makes two
trips a day between Ogdensburg and
Canton, q distance of twenty miles,
carrying passengers and parcels
through a prosperous farming section.
The rural auto service promotes So
ciability and brings the people into
closer touch with one another. The
auto, the trolley and the telephone are
doing more than anything else to re-
move the isolation and lonesomeness
of the farmers life.
Said a prominent Long Islander: 81
believe within the next five years the
truck farmers on Long Island will
come to market with auto trucks.
With the magnificent roads on the
island 1t is a matter of surprise that
the change has not already taken
place.
"There is no economy in the present
slow method of reaching the city.
With the rapid suburban development
the truck farms on Long island begin
in zone at least twenty miles from
Manhattan. An entire day is now
consumed by the majority OF these
farmers in walking their horses from
their gardens to the market. At least
two-t thirds of the time would be saved
by the use of automobiles"
The time has come when the cost of
