OLD PARTY SPIRIT
IS NOW MANIFEST
CHAS. G.. SEFRIT SAYS RE-
PUBLICANS ARE DETER
MINED TO WIN
Strength of Beveridge With Or
ganized Labor is Big
Factor.

Charles C. Sefrit of Davies
County, editor OF the Washing
ton Herald and member of the
Republican State Executive COM
mittee, spoke with much conf
dence ait committee headquarters
last Thursday night, of the
prospects for Republican success
in the southern part of the state.
"The organization meetings
last week Indicate plainly that
the Republicans are awake to
conditions, and that they are not
going to turn over to the Demo
cratic party in Indiana legislat-
ure this year," said Mr.. Sefrit.
Too much is involved. They
haven't forgotten the manner in
which the Democrats gerryman-
dered the state for congressional
and Legislative purposes the last
time they had the chance. Con-
sequently there is just now an
abundant show of the old spirit
OF party discipline and fealty."
The Republican party has
won many a victory ON account
of it's superior discipline and
has Distinguishing trait in the
party is going to count in this
campaign. There was danger
that the Republicans would
hose time in debating among
themselves instead of turning
their tongues on the opposition.
burt they have got we'll away
from this. One doesn't hear
much talk now about insurgents
and regulars. The bone of con-
tention has been buried"
Stand of Labor Cheering.
One especially encouraging
sign is The manifest sympathy
toward Senator Beverage among
organized labor. Undoubtedly
Beverage is sttong with these
forces. The expression of this
will prove an import
ant factor in the election. In
quarters where two years ago the
Republicans encountered indif-
ference or open opposition, they
now are received with encour-
agement and good cheer.
Another gratifying circum-
stance is the unconceaaed dread
the Democrats that the
Legislative candidates
are going to draw heavily from
Democratic votes because indie |
pendent Democrats are outspok-
en- in their admiration for the
ability and the courage OF SEN
ator Beverage. The haunting
fear of defectioals in their own
party because of Senator Beve-
Ridge is a nightmare to Demo-
cratic politicians and newspapers
all over the state. That is why.
this absurd Democratic picked
editorial factory in indianapolis
is working overtime misrePre-
senting Indiana Republicans.
Why, if the vote for senator were
direct as between Beveridge and
Kern, the Democrat would be

HUNGARIAN
PARTR|DGES
RELEASED
STATE GAME COMMISSION
Err PLEASED WITH
RECENT EXPERT
MENTS IN STATE.
He Expects to Release 5000 Birds
During the Month of
September and O.
tOber.

Three thousand additional
Hungarians patridges will be re-
leased on the state game pre-
serves during the autumn months
by George Miles, state fish and
game commissioner, unless pres
ent plans go awry. Mr.. Mrles
has made arrangements for the
purchase of the birds, which will
begin to arrive for delivery to
the farmers some time in Sep
TENDER.
Experience with the patrldges
has shown the fish and game
commissioners that they are bet
ter tor Indiana purposes than
the pheasant, which was tried a
few years ago. The partridge re-
mains in the vicinity in which
it is released and thus protects
himself on the game preserves,
while the pheasant more OF a
nomad and an adven'turer, is
given to wandering about distant
fields and woods and even often
falls prey to the unscrupulous
hunter who does not care TO ven
ture on a preserve. FOR this
and other reasons the expert
ment with the pheasant has not
proved highly successful and II
is probable that no more money
will be used in their purchase.
Reports from he Warmers du-
ING the summer months Indicate
that the Hungarian patridges re-
leased this year have multiplied
rapidly this year. with compara-
lively little loss from winter and
sprjns rains. Arrangements
we're made to have the birds led
during the winter and thousands,
which might otherwise have died
were carried through the snow
season in excellent condition for
the summer.
The partridge has been tested
somewhat as a game bird and
is found to furnish an excellent
sport as a native quail. Ihey
are somewhat more sluggish
than the native bird for some
time after being released, but
soon take on the qualities OF the
native quail. Hunters expert
enced in shooting them say that
if the older birds OF the flock
are killed off in the middle o.
the summer, it is an easy mat
ter to kill the younger ones OF
the flock but that with a little
time the younger birds learn to
be wary OF the man with a gun
and to scatter at his approach
after the manner OF the native
neighbors. Killing the patridges
was forbidden for six years BY
a law enacted in 1909.

NEW GARAGE
HAS BEEN
COMPLETED
KUHN AUTO CONCERN
MOVES INTO BUILDING
ON SOUTH MICHI-
GAN STREET.
Modern Structure With Inside
Clearance of 44x90 Feet
Will Install Machinery
at Once.

The new Kuhn garage has
been completed, just south OF the
town bridge on Michigan street
and the concern finished moving
from the Bissel building on west
Laporte st, Thursday. The
garage is commodius structure
having an inside clearance of "A
by 90 feet. The building is fire
proof and has a self sustaining
roof, no posts being used inside
OF the large storage room. The
floor is of cement. An office has
been constructed in THE front, and
as soon as possible the work OF
constructing a room on the rear
for the machinery will be begun.
A separate room IS to be built
for the work and repair room
which, will not be in the storage
room. As soon as the work room
is completed, an up-to-date set OF
machinery will be installed.
Among the features of THE new
garage will be an electric tire
pump, which fills tires to any de-
sired pressure, and then shuts
off automatically. An under
ground gasoline tank OF 800 gal
Ion capacity has been installed.
The new building presents a
large area OF glass in the front,
and is OF a handsome appearance
and adds another industry to the
city.

Sold Trains of Steel.

Two thousand all steel cars
will soon be in service on the
Pennsylvania lines. Each of
these 1000 Dreadnauglbt OF the
Rail weighs 11S,50O pounds,
fact that will absolutely abolish
an vibration while speeding over
the steel rails, for the standard
wooden coach weighs but $4,000
pounds. Thus travelling COM
fort is materially added to and
in addition to this feature, the
all-steel car is non-collapsible be-
cause of it's marvellous construc-
ton. The car is fire proof hav-
ing only l25 pounds OF wood for
decorative purposes, window
frames and arm rests.

FOOTBALL RULES
Changes Are Made Which Affect
the Character of the
Game.

The football rules COMMITTEES
made public the rules which an
to govern the game during TIKI
season of 1910.
Changes adopted are revolu
tionary in character and calcu
lated to minimize greatly TIM
danger of fatal accidents exist
ing under the old rules.
For one thing the time OF play
is divided into four sections OF /;
minutes duration instead the ira
ditional two halves of tflirty-hvt
minutes is maintained beweer
the second and third periods, but
an intermission of but three min.
utes is allowed between the first
and second and third and fourth
periods.
At the beginning of the second
and fourth periods, the teams
change goals.
Another radical change is that
governing the flying tackle. This
has been entirely eliminated by
new ruling, which provides
that a player must have one foot
at least on the ground when tack
ling an opponent.
This years rules provide that
a player is only qualified to re-
oeive a forward pass who is least
one yard back of his own line Of
scrimmage or occupies the posi-
ton on the end of the said line.
No man may take forward pass
on kick the ball unless he is five
yards back of the line of scrim-
mage.
The territory forward of the
line of scrimmage and conse-
quently in the enemy's camp, is
adjudged neutral for distance OF
90 yards, pending the completion
of forward pass or kick. A
forward pass is not legal If the
ball crosses a line twenty yards
in advance of the spot where it
was put in play before touching
the ground or player.
In the case of a kick the play
ers on the defense within a TWEEN
ty yard zone must not interfere
with the ends or other players in
any way until their opponents
have advanced 20 yards beyond
the line OF Scrinmage.
Interlocked interference, that
is players of the side having the
ball taking hold of each other or
using their hands or arms to
grasp their team mates in any
way is forbidden and it is also
forbidden for any man on The
side having the ball 10 push or
pull in any way the man running
with the ball.
The longitudinal lines FORMER
ly marking the filed are done
away with as the quarterback
may now cross the line of scrim-
mage at any point.

Expensive But Beneficial

Fourteen months OF the opera
ton OF the State Board of Ac-
counts has cost the state a total
OF $22, 530.s0, as shown by fig
ures compiled in the office OF the
auditor of state, for the expendi-
lures to date. OF this amount
$1S, 429.43 has been spent since
the beginning OF the present ifs
cal year-Oct. 1, 1909. The
governor has contributed to the
payment OF the expenses in the
sum of $2,924.64 from his civil
and military contingent fund for
Office supplies.

TOWNSHIP TRUSTEES LAX
Allow Supervisor Pay for Work,
Which Was Not Per-
formed.

The field examiners for the
state board of accounts, who are
now inspecting the books OF the
county, city and townsip off
cials are digging up some sensa-
tional charges against road super
visions.
The examiners have discovered
while going over the books OF
the township trustees that many
supervisors have been putting in
claims for full pay when the facts
are they had worked more than
half time sometimes much less.

wind UP the water works inn
provement proposition excepting
the completion on the new water
tank said councilman 4. r.
Cllzbe, chairman OF the water
works committee in reporting
mis- charge at the council meet
ing Monday night. According to
Mr.. Clizbe the tank will be fin
ished within ten days, and will
be ready FOR operation about the
first OF September. The cleo
trio pump is now ready to cut in
at any time, and after Thursday,
by which time all of the piping
and alteration OF the system at
the plant will have been COM
pleted. the electric pump will
supply the direct pressure in the
water mains which will be raised
to 20 pounds to the So. inch. AT
the present time, the pressure be-
ing used is about Is pounds.
Among other changes made at
the plant, was the substitution
OF new cast iron pipes in the
wells, for the old wrought iron
pipes which were there. Four
of the wells were sunk to an adj
ditional depth of thirty feet with
cast iron pipe. Mr.. Clizbe IL
Illustrated how easily wrought
iron is attacked by certain sub
stances and showed how a shov-
elful of cinders would DESTROY a
section OF that kind OF pipe in
two years. That the pipes in
the four old wells were so de-
stroyed is the opinion OF the
chairman OF the water works
committee. \ test OF the cleo
trio pump shows that it will be
more than able to supply the
water supply for the city. At
present the plant is pumping an
average OF $4,000 gallons OF
water every uwenty-four hours.
The old power pumps have been
disconnected, and the electric
pump put to work. a test was
made one day from nine a. ni.,
until ten a. M, the next. During
rhis time, the pump supplied the
city consumption, and in addi-
ton raised the reserve supply in
the cistern an average OF four
teen inches per hour. 1t is the
opinion of Mr.. Clizbe that three
wells win be quite able to fur
nish the water supply, but five
wells will be kept in good order.
The plant is practically self-op-
Grating now, and the city saves
the wages paid to the engineer,
who has been dismissed.
1t would be difficult matter
to estimate the actual cost OF
the Improvement OF the water
works system in Plymouth. With
the purchase of hundreds OF new
meters and the cost OF their in
stalNation, the new tank, machin-
cry, new mains, remodeling and
charging OF the water works
building, the cost runs high into
the thousands OF dollars, the to-
tai of which no doubt would be
an interesting one to read.
Nevertheless the plant will be
worth the cost, and then some.

nish the city a means OF revenue

Hold Four Meetings

The day was given over to
win Washington over to an anti
saloon agitation and the state
superintendent together with dis
trict superintendent Moore of In
dianapolis, addressed four audi
ences in as many churches.
AT the First M. f. church Mr..
Shuh1aker went into the details
OF the foundation pertaining to
the league and its work.
He said Indiana is the key to
the liquor determination and that
the eyes of the nation are upon
it. The future Legislative pro-
gram OF the league was outlined
so as TO have ready for the vot-
ers an amendment to the consti-
tuition permitting state wide pro-
hib4tion, which he predicted
would carry by from $4,000. to
100000 and legislation prohibit
ing liquor shipments into the dry
states under the protection OF in
terstate commerce laws.
Calls for Loud Amens.
Early in his discourse he said
that if his remarks were approx
ed by his audience encourage
ments NIGH be offered by loud
amens." But once did this oc-
cur and this was when he said he
was being referred to by the
brewers as a man clothed with
hoofs and horns.
The local option and blind
tiger acts, he said were being
brought into dis-repute by hire
hing of the brewers and in this
they were being assisted by the
citizens by lack of eff enforcement.
He closed his address with a
plea for activity in this line.
No mention was made by him
to his discussion with former
superintendent further than say
ing that Notwithstanding rumors
the league still existed at Evans
vile.

fact that they are going ITO use
some German speakers this year.
