GARY WANTS
STENO6RAPH HERS
IN BIG NUMBERS

The Chicago papers have been speak
ing about the scarcity of labor at Gary
but as far as it can be discovered at
the present tim there seems to be
dearth of employees in but one class. II
they may be classified as laborers. and
that is stenographers- THE TIMES dur
ing the past month has been sought By
at least dozen firms to come to their
relief through the classified want
column. There are always good steno-
graphic positions open in Gary and the
demand seems to be growing. Among
those seeking help at the present time
are II. H Highlands. Harris. BPetsch

people will be pleased to learn that
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad has
made arrangements by which %
minutes will be clipped from the run

a letter to be sent to the senate that reflected his ideas of the Ballinger- Glavis controversy. He probably had fully weighed the consequences and then took his medicine with a smile.
 It may not be generally known. but Mir. Pinchot's work was strictly a labor of love-he not only never having used cent of his salary for his own use or expenses, giving 1t all to the upbuilding of the service, but besides gave large sums from his private fortune to the same cause.
 Mir. Pinchot has brought upon his head the condemnation of ever pub lie land, timber. water power and mineral thief of the United States. The people can readily forgive such man for breach of "court rules, y even if the president cannot.

Postal Savings Banks.

And now the dispatches say the Republican leaders are going to hu- nor the President and pass postal savings banks bill.
 Good The Democrats ought to try to perfect it by providing for the deposits of the money in the nearest banks, state andI national. but they ought not to oppose it. Even very imperfect postal savings banks measure is better than none and it can be perfected later, after experience has shown the defects.
 The postal savings bank measure instead of the place of the guaran- teed bank will compel the banks to provide guaranty system. By all means let us have the savings banks now if we can get them-the guar anteed bank will come later. Bry- ans Commoner.

Tired of Insanity Plea.

Insanity is often gentle and bland and as timid as a sheep. Not al. ways a murderer, a faker, a rascal, anyway, bad as it is. too many sins born of pure cussedness and mean ness are charged to it. There is. Watson's bad poetry, Cooks faking Thaw's murdering, Bullock's rob- bering, those Kansas City butcher ings, some fires, whole lot of other things. All charged to insanity. ' Insanity is not guilty. Insanity is a safer temperament than total de pravity. extreme cussedness, inbred meanness, inordinate greed, con- densed extract of jealousy and a whole lot of hangable things. Be- cause they do not punish insanity very mu.h but do pour out whole lot of pitying gush on top Of il is one reason why 1t ans wers for so many crimes. Times, Clay Center, Kas.

OLD DEAL AGAIN CONSIDERED

There is strong talk of ship sub- sidy bill-Congress being urged by the President to pass law to pay rich bonus to ships flying the Ameri- can flag.
 This measure is intended, first, to encourage American shipbuilders, and, second, to provide ships for the use of the government in case of war, all subsidized vessels being sub ject to such call.
 This proposition has been before the American people for at least forty years, and always has been defeated, being by most of the peo- pie considered a big sci eme for a steal or graft.
 If it is carried out, it may well be classed as another addition to the cost of the war and naval depart ments, which now cost the taxpayers each year, in time of absolute peace, more than 23S million dollars.
 In view of the great burden placed upon the people by the tariff, multi piled as it is by the trusts that through it control the American markets, the plan of admitting free or at reduced import duties all goods shipped in American vessels seem to be better than ship subsidy.
 But such a proposal is sure to have the opposition of Cannon, Al drich and their special interest crnniea

Every man who believed in the principle that the great natural wealth of the nation should be saved for the whole people. instead of being gobbled up and exploited by the specially favored few, will re- gret the dismissal, On the direct order ofsPresident Taft. of Clifford Pinchot, head of the National For ests. It seems just another instance in which the President and his ad- ministration took advantage of an opportunity to favor the big cor porate interists and grabbers of public rights. The plea in the case is the same that was used in the case of Glavis, who protested against the threatened grab of the Alaskan coal fields by the Guggenheims. when his superior officers seemed to be standing in a plea of insubordination.

This figure bore the words: Carrying out Roosevelt's Policies" That cartoon was grim prophecy of just what has happened in every instance where Taft has dealt with the interests of the great common people.

There are facts contained therein con- meeting the Kansas City South ern and the division point with Meua, as set down by Judge Fla. ton, who was attorney for the road while owned by the Stilwell interests, which will doubtless be interesting reading-ves, possibly uews to the present fficial of the road.
