ANOTHER
DEMOCRAT
CANDIDATE

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 15.-Another
name is being mentioned a posi- BILE
candidate for the democratic nominal
ton for governor. and it is that of DR.
George Edenharter, superintendent OF
the central hospital for the insane. in
this city. DR.. Edenharter has not made
any announcement of his intentions,
but there is a good deal of talk in his
favor, and 1t may be that he will de-
eide to try for the place DR.. Eden
harter is the only democrat in the
state that has been able to hold his po-
sition under both democratic and re-
publican administrations. He is recog-
nized as one of the ablest insane hos
pital superintendents in the country.
and it is through his ability in that line
that he has been retained in the office
for nearly twenty years.
He is known to practically all of the
politicians of both parties in the state
but he is not well known to the rank
and file of either party because he is
not politician himself. There has not
been a legislature in the last twenty
years that has not given DR.. Edenhart-
er practically everything he has asked
for in his institution. because the mem
bers have known that he never asked
Tor a0yIDI0R tndI was not actually
needed for the place and they knew
also that DR.. Edenharter would spend
every cent in a proper manner. This
has made him solid with the members
of the general assembly.
He is independent las a hog on
ice" He never allows anyone to die
tate to him as to how the hospital
shall be conducted He has even warn
ed governors to keep their hands off
his institution so long as he was the
superintendent. He will not permit OF
any interference, and he will not al
low politics to enter the place. no mat
ter which party tries it.
Among those who know him DIR.
Edenharter would be a strong candi-
date, but there is a feeling that he is
not we'll enough known to make him
formidable in the race.

right, lyrically at least, to have.
Humility, that low, sweet root
From which all heavenly virtues
shoot.
But It's bad when, taking ones
vanity by the hand, II leads one into
so hideous pitfalls as this. This poor,
little chap-a nice. bright-faced, eager
lad, with good impulses, every one or
them, flushed with pleasure when the
machine guilefully held out before his
sparkling blue eyes promises of honor
incompatible. Flattering things about
his intellect, patriotism, executive
capacity. will power, leadership or
men, good looks, the combination
as he ingenuously called them, told
to the breathless little fellow. And he

OF the Detroit board OF education.
Broken promises, execrable commit.

apologies-everything may now be
overlooked. He Is little waif, shared
by stronger hands and helpless In the
grasp OF stronger intellects. When,
with a tremolo In his voice, he had
announced his committees Thursday
evening and the remnants OF the fur
niture had been swept up, he called
up Inspector Goldberg, sturdiest foe
man OF the machine, and thus spoke

the better committees. had
slated you for the janitors' COM
mittee, but they simply wouldn't
stand for 1t.
Inspector Goldberg naturally but in
sidiously inquired:
Who wouldn't stand for it?
And President Kuhn. pitiful I'm his
bondage, replied:
Oh, you know-the combination
over there. They simply made
life miserable for me. couldn't
stand it.-You won't make me

BLAME PHYSICIANS FOR =
GROWTH OF DOPE HABIT
Druggists Say Prescriptions and Not
Patent Medicines the
Cause.

New York.-Blame for the prev.
alence and growth of the morphine
habit was placed on the shoulders OF
physicians, who prescribed the drug,
at a meeting of druggists here to-
night to protest against the recently
enacted city ordinance prohibiting the
sale at retail of any preparation con.
tanning morphine or it's salts except
upon doctors prescription.
The ordinance is aimed primarily
at paregoric and at stomach remedies,
according to members of the board Of
health who were instrumental in OBJ
tanning It's passage. Caswell Mayo.
one OF the druggists, said he had
made q canvass by mail of several
sanltar1ums and the replies convinced
him 80 per cent. of the victims of
drugs formed the habit as a result of
using prescriptions given by physi-
clans and only per cent. from using
proprietary medicines.

This powder was part of the Du.
pont shipment for South America, as
was the dynamite, but it should have
been delivered to a steamship, he
maintained, before the dynamite was
taken aboard.
Contrary to general belief" said
DR.. Hudson, BLACK powder is far
more dangerous than dynamite. We
believe the powder became ignited and
in exploding detonated some of the
dynamite-not much of it. Dynamite
freezes at about IS degrees Fahrenheit
and is nearly impossible to explode
when frozen. The temperature on the
day of the explosion and for week
before was below 49,"
Hudson Maxim, the inventor, an
authority on explosives, inclined to
the same belief. He agreed the after

voice for some friend of the state, and
he suggested Senator Cullom, to make
reply to Mr.. Roots speech which
would exonerate, not Lorimer, but Hi
nois.
Mr. Root began his speech soon
after the senate convened without
having previously announced what his
position was to be. Before he had
proceeded far it developed that he
went beyond the position of others
who have condemned the election OF
Lorimer as having been ACCOMPLISHED
by bribery.
The rottenness shown by the testi
mony, contended Mr.. Root, was suffi.
cient to invalidate the election of Lori
mer, and he asserted that all of the
following of Lee O'Neil Browne, the
Democratic leader in the Illinois as
sembly, was corrupt and the votes OF
that following should have been elm.

been called. Mr.. Root said that his
testimony had been merely of for.

fact that he was closeted day and
night with Lorimer, he should have
been questioned most carefully
Mr.. Root reached the conclusion
that, deducting the seven votes, Mr..
Lorimer had been left without ma.

validated his election"
This was equally true, he said,
whether the corruption fund had been
used either to increase Lorimer's vote
or to reduce the total vote.
Mr.. Root characterized Browne and
his 30 followers as "a band of rob-
bers," and declared that all of their
votes should be rejected in Lorimer's
election.
Bailey and Hepburn Talk.
Mr.. Bailey followed, saying that If
Mr.. Roots doctrine were to be fol-

had not been a lawful election in H.

of the lack of foundation for them.
