ONE LAW THAT REACHES ALL
No Evasion or Compromise Possible
When One Is Dealing with the
Rule Of karnna.

Put In everyday English, Karma is
the law that whatever you have com.
ing to you is bound to catch ND with
you sooner or later, and you can't
sldestep it. 1t may be good, or 1t may
De bad, or 1t may be little Of both.
but 1t will find you, no matter how
many times you have moved away
without leaving your new address
And whatever 1t is 1t will be exactly
what your own actions have made you
deserve. Not an ounce more, nor an
ounce less. nor fraction thereof.
Some people call this law Nemesis.
Some call 1t by other names. Some
don't call 1t at all, but they don't
need to. 1t comes without calling.
some people say they don't believe in
IT, and some scoff at It. But the
law goes right on minding its own
business and saying very little.
Probably the majority OF thinking
people agree on this much-that some.
how or other things are to be eyened
up In the long run; that we are all
going to get our Just deserts before
the ANAL gong sounds, II there is any.
80 suppose we let the word Karma
stand for that idea and go ahead to
see how the thing works out in the
realm Of modern business.
TAe principle that we are punished
py our sins, not for them, Is pretty
evident anywhere, but IL you want to
see 1t working hard and fast and all
the time Just take look into the
average commercial concern. For
quick returns in this Karma business.

developed arboricultural industry to proceed
hand in hand with the preparation Of quebracho
posts for fences and construction work, sleepers
for railways. and Of tanning extract. the three
industries for which this unique tree is at present
utilized.
"Rollizos" is the Spanish word commonly en-
ployed in the trade for the rough and untrimmed
logs (Which the word means), from which only
the bark has been removed. They are still sup
piled by smaller camps from dwarfed under
growth not great enough for other purposes than
posts, beams. cabin pillars, or cart axles. When
the forest was first invaded these logs were the
only product brought out of it. and the stories told
of the primitive methods adopted by the natives
for transport carry one back before the days of
steam and machinery. popular way of loading
the logs to lay them on the ground on ropes;
then the animals were Embarrassed and the cart
tilted bodily upside down the logs;
these then made fast to the body of the cart.
after whio'' maneuver it was brought back to Its
normal position. OF course only two-wheeled carts
were used AS soon modern methods were in
troduced. and better carts or wagons became
known, these primitive and cumbersome habits
disappeared although in the far interior even to-
day rolizos are still brought to market in this
manner. "Durmientes." according to the Spanish.
sleepers, in the English diom. are probably the
most important product of the quebracho of the
Argentine Republic.
The industry of making sleepers has assumed
huge proportions. The difficulties of former days
have been largely overcome by the introduction
of modern machinery, especially saws and some
of the mills many miles distant from any main
railway equipped and organized in manner
which would reflect credit any similar plant in
the United States. Special needed to
penetrate the wood, but they are furnished from
the factories of England. France. and America.
. This mill business Is carried by many
panies, although the tendency is to concentrate
the management into fewer but larger organiza-
tions. One company owns tract of land of about
10000 acres, and is prepared to cut timber.

land provides. Another company turn out

this extract In Paraguay and areas In the Chaco
remote from good roads, that the cost OF sup
plying timber is excessive, every particle of the
wood Is turned into extract, because the demand
is usually In advance of the supply, and 1t is there
fore more profitable to manufacture the more
concentrated article, which be easier and more
economically carried to market.
One feature OF quebracho. in which 1t is SUI
pertor to other Of supply Is that the bark
the sapwood, and the whole of the central part
of the tree produce the extract In considerable
quantities The bark contains to per cent. OF
tannin, the sap to per cent, and the heart 20
to rs per cent AS the heart represents two-thirds
and often threefourths of the total quantity OF
wood the amount of tannin in the Quebracho colo
RADIO is seen to be considerable. 1t Is merely a
chemical question whether this tanning material
is equal inferior to that from the oak, but later
methods of preparation point to full justification
of the claim that The leather from quebracho ex-
tract grades up to that resulting from any other
tanning substance. So serviceable is 1t, however.
that since it's discovery, the tanning industry OF
the Argentine Republic has made noticeable ad-
vance, because with both hides and extract as
great natural products of the country. the govern.
ment is making every effort to foster the leather
industry within Its own border.
"ouebracho extract" as it is called in the trade
Is easily manufactured when the machinery Is
once installed. All the wood is passed through
a machine that cuts it into shavings or the small
est possible chips. 1t is then collected into I'M
mense kettles in which 1t is treated by chemical
processes until all the tannin is removed; after
this the fluid preparation is reduced by eyapora-
ton to thick. jelly-like mass. which is poured
into sacks where 1t is finally dried into the sub
stance sold In commerce.
The difficulty of gathering the raw material far
outweighs the preparation Of the finished article.
especially as the extract is longer to be con-
sidered q by-product but is coming to have more
importance and value than posts and sleepers. In
Paraguay particularly, where all the wood is util-
lied for extract the hardest part of the business
lies in gathering wood for the factory. The trees
are cut in the heart of the virgin forest and
hauled by OK teams to the nearest clearing Only

understand the wilderness. and can Withstand the
plague of insects which make life at night mis-
erable for the foreigner; and exposure for nights
as we'll as days is unavoidable. because the cut
ting stations are usually remote from any settle
ment
In 1895 the first real expectation of quebracho
extract from the River Plate was recorded. The
increase has been rapid-from 400 tons in the frst
year to 5000 tons in 1902. 120594 tons in the next
Ave years. and 2S.195 tons In 1907. OF this guam

IMPROVING MORALS IN CHINA
Influence Of Christian Teachings
Shown in the Changed condi-
tions Found There.

"The public conscience Is now be-
ing awakened upon this aspect of pub
lie morality Last week l was in
vited to take part in meeting or
ganized by men who are not directly
connected with any Christian church.
but who are sincerely desirous of as
sisting in the reformation of their
countrymen. Their purpose was to
start an antigambling league, and
with this in mind they called a public
meeting, which was attended by some
hundreds of Chinese scholars and
business men, and resolutions were
passed in approved public meeting
style, approving of a campaign against
the gambling vice Members of the
Chinese Young Mems Christian asso-
citation were asked to assist in the,
meeting, and to demonstrate by the
means Of games the possibility of
recreation without vice. Suitable ad-
dresses were given by prominent Chi
nese, and the chief organizer of the
movement is one of the government
education inspectors for the provinces
of Kiangsu and Kiangsi. A Chinese
Roman Catholic teacher gave violin
solo, Chinese secretary of the Young
Mems Christian association rendered
two cornet solos, and Protestant
missionary sang to the gathering. The
whole meeting was conducted in so
orderly and orthodox fashion that it
was scarcely possible to realize how
tremendous reformation in the
whole Chinese outlook upon public
life this meeting revealed. Twenty
years, even ten years, ago such a
meeting would not have been within
the realm of possibility. Today we
have class of public moralists arising
who have undoubtedly learned from
Christianity In their midst the ideals
which they are desirous of impressing
upon their countrymen."

KEY WINS IN
SUPREME COURT
Highest Tribunal Sustains
Lower Courts.
THREE YEARS OF LITIGATION
Former Recorded Not Re-
quired to Refund.
The Supreme Court Hands Down Its
Decision in the Case Brought
Against John \. Key by Prosecutor
John ii. Clark.

The supreme court, Thursday, de.
cided the case of the State of Ohio
on relation of John II. Clark, prose-
cutting attorney, against John a. Key,
recorder of Marion county, sustain
ing the circuit court, which had sus-
| tanned the common pleas court, and
putting an end to the igitation which
has been going on for the past three
| years.
Prosecutor Clark brought suit
against John A. Key TO compel him
to pay back into the county treasury
about 500 with interest which State
Examiner Halbidell claimed he ha .
drawn Illegally. There were twenty
six different causes of action set up
In the petition. The first twenty-five
were on the grounds that Mr.. Key
had drawn amounts from the county
treasury for indeXing the different pa
pers which were brought to him for
record. Mr.. Halbdell claimed that
this money should have been collect
ed from the persons who had the
documents recorded and not Srom the
county. The other four causes were
based upon the claim that money had
been paid illegally for making two
new general indexes for the county.
This work was done under contract
with the county commissioners.
AS a counter claim Mr.. Key set up
claim for $107 which was still due
him. At the hearing in the common
pleas court, Mr.. Key was given a
judgment for the amount he claim
ed was due him and the prosecutor
was prevented from the collection of
the amount which he claimed was due
the county.
Prosecutor Clark carried the case
to the circuit court but that court
sustained the common pleas court u.
G. Denman, the present attorney gem
eral of Ohio stepped into the case at
this point and II was carried to the
supreme court with the result stated
above.
This puts an end TO the case which
was begun In the common pleas court

Evidence in the Harry
Houck Trial Completed.
ARGUMENTS NOW IN PROGRESS
State Consumes an Hour in
It's Rebuttal.
II May be Necessary to Hold Night
Session of the Court In Order to
Complete the Arguments And Give
The Case to the Jury.

The Thursday afternoon session of
the Houck murder trial did not last
long after the Mirror had gone to
press. The cross-examination of Mrs.
Houck was completed and the court
took "a fifteen minute recess, after
which the defense placed number of
character witnesses on the stand.
Charles sutton and "Dlck" Curren
employees of the Marion Steam Shovel
company were called and testified
that so far as they knew Harry
Houck was possessed of a good char
acter. II. Il. Buzzard, an employe of
the Erie railway company testified to
the same effect and Mrs. Catherine
Newman, of Sidney was called. She
stated that Mr. and Mrs. Harry Houck
had roomed at her house for a week
prior to the time of Houck's arrest
and that the conduct of Houck was
very good. She said she saw nothing
out of the ordinary In his behavior
The defense sought to have her tes-
tify regarding "A revolver whish she
had given TO the little son Of
Houck, but an objection from the
prosecution put an end to It.
At 1920 o'clock. the defense rested
Prosecutor Justice stated to the
court that the state will consume
about an hour in rebuttal and asked
the court that adjournment be taken
until Friday morning in order to give
time for the preparation.
The court stated that the jurors
had been kept closely in the court
room and that a rest would be ac-
ceptable to them. The court then ad-
journed until nine o'clock, Friday
morning.
Court convened again Friday morn
ing for the resumption of the Houck
murder trial promptly at the APP
pointed hour. The greatest interest
upon the part of the public appears
to have centered in the story told by
the defendant for at the opening Of
court there was only "A sprinkling OF
spectators In the audience room.
Others dropped in during the morning
hours and when the time for the argu
ments to begin there was the usual
crowd augmented by many of the wit
nesses who had been barred from
