lives in their hands by neglecting the

nor to remain in danger when all
diseases and aches and pains due to
weak kidneys can be quickly and
permanently cured by the use of Doans

An Eloquent Appeal.

A few weeks ago paper regarding
Public Fairgrounds" was read be-
fore the Whiting Municipal club and
published in The TINES
The paper was an eloquent appeal for
q municipal Fairgrounds for the Oil
City, and was widely copied. not only
by English papers. but was also trans
lated into a foreign language and
printed in Polish paper. and is bear
ing an abundance of fruit Hammond.
Gary and Goshen have already secured
sites for a playground. while the peo-
pie of other cities OF northern Indiana
are discussing the subject with consid-
cradle fervor. Strange to say. Whiting.
for whose benefit the paper was writ
ten, appears to be the only city in the
neighborhood that remains apathetic on
this subject.

government
In Germany the government will
carry packages up to 10 pounds for
one-third of cent a pound while
under our present laws. the govern
ment charges the prohibitive rate of
l6 cents a pound for merchandise and
refuses to take anything over four
pounds. Think of our rural free de-
livery being run at loss of millions
of dollars a year. The driver makes
his daily rounds with his horse and
wagon, and a load of mail weighing
about % pounds. while there is room
for at least 500 pounds. This space
could be filed with packages sent by
sparcels post. Not only would this sys-
tenn be of immense benefit TO the farm
ers, but the income derived from it
would overcome the postal deficit

GERRYMANDER
MAY PROVE
FAILURE
Republican Growth Heaviest
in Congressional Districts
to Be Divided.
FOUR NEW MEMBERS
IN TEXAS POSSIBLE

Austin, Texas Dec 1.-THE reappor-
,ionment of the congress ional and other
political divisions of the state, on the
basis of the new population figures,
must be made by the next legislad ure
which is to convene in January and,
while it is stated that this work could
be performed at a special session. it is
considered unlikely that there will be
any postponement of the task. 1t is
considered not at all unlikely that in
counties where there may be plain evil
dence that an incomplete count of the
people was made a recount may be or
dered.
Democratic Politicians Disappointed.
The men most keenIy disappointed
over the federal census figures for Tex
as are the Democratic politicians who
aspire to being elected to congress by
the creation of new districts and the
general readjustment of the present
ones. In the absence of the establish
ment Of the new basis of population for
congressional districts 1t is not def
nitely known how many additional con-
gressmen the census figures will give
Texas 1t is considered practically as
sured that it will not be less than two
and it may be as many at four. The
more new districts that are allowed the
state the greater will be the legislative
wirepulling for their creation on the
part of aspiring politicians.
Sixteenth Districts Growth.
By far the greatest proportion or
percentage of population increase dur
ing the last 10 years was in the west
ern and southern parts of the state The
most wonderful showing in this partic-
ular is in the Sixteenth congressional
district. represented by W. R. Smith
The area of this district is SO, 2S6 miles,
embracing SIS counties, some of which
are as large as the average state 1t is
more than five hundred miles across
this district at its widest point, east
and west. In 1900 it had a population
of 49, The census figures recently
announced give the district a popula-
tiop of &c., 623. which is an increase of
206.539 in 10 years.
y Thirteenth Comes Next.
Immediately north of this district is
the Thirteenth district embracing the
Panhandle region 1t is represented in
congress by John H. Stephens. This
district has an area of 44,607 square
miles and in 1900 it's population was
1854. The, new census gives the dis
trict population of 33S,333, an increase
of 1872.
The Lower Rio Grande.
The lower Rio. Grande border region
which is embraced in the Fifteenth
district. has increased in population
from 1885, 94 in 1900, to 235. 1875 in 1910.
