from the president in the south
There has been a rather common as
sumption that Mr.. Taft would be in
vineible because he would have the
''solid south" back of him In the
convention. But now it is learned
that the federal Office holders in
Texas and North Carolina, who are
about all there is of the republican
party in those states, are about to
raise the flag of revolt and go over
to "Teddy."
Iowa has been taken out of the
Taft column by Cummins' announce
ment. West Virginia is slumping
from Mr.. Taft. Postmaster Gen.
eral Hitchcock's bid for dismissal
has created a ruction in the cabinet,
two-thirds of the cabinet ministers
being of the opinion that the presi-
dent ought to discharge him out of
hand.
With these developments the re-
publican presidential contest has be-
come like a seething eauldron.

Gov. eLASScOCK
CALLS ROOSEVELT
Eight Other Governors Join in
His Request.
WANT TEDDY FOR PRESIDENT
West Virginia Eecutive Is Not Able
However, to Gain CoIonePs Consent
to Announcing Himself an
Active Candidate.

New York, Jan. Ex-Governor Will
ginia, said to be a bearer OF call"
from at least eight other governors to
Colonel Roosevelt to become his par
tvs candidate this year, came, saw.
and !unched with the colonel.
He did not, however, conquer, if it
was his mission to get Mr.. Roosevelt
to announce himself as an active can
didale.
But Governor Glasscock was far from
downcast after his interview with Col
onel Roosevelt. He was not commits
stoned to speak for the colonel, but
he saw no reason to abate his efforts
to secure Mr. Rooseevlt's nomination.
In my pubic utterances," said the
governor, 81 have said that I believed
that Mr.. Roosevelt was a patriot and
that he would run If nominated. II is
still my personal opinion that he'd &C.
cept If the American people demanded
his nomination l think he will be
nominated and l haven't the slightest
doubt that he'll be elected If nomfn-
ated."
Straw votes taken in various parts
of West Virginia, the governor said,
show q very strong Roosevelt tide.
Governor Glasscock recalled that in
1904 Roosevelt had carried West Vir-
ginia by about $4,000 majority, while
Taft received 4 little over $4,000 ma
jority He said that everybody down
his way believed that if Roosevelt ran
again he would carry the state by a
larger majority than he did in 1904.

The following shows the number
of persons of all classes in the jails
of the state of Indiana for the
year 1911, and will be of interest as
showing the magnitude of the cost
of caring for those who are confined
in or local prisons, as well as the
great institutions furnished by the
state:
During the year 36,3s0 persons,
according to the reports, were adj
mitted to the county jails and the
Marion county workhouse. This mum
Der includes 33,349 men, III boys
under is years of age, 2,1O6 women,
and 154 girls under Is years of
age Another classification shows
that 1908 served sentences OF
laid out fines, III were insane and
held for safe keeping, 400 were
Migrants, and the remaining 1882
were held as witnesses or runaways
or after trial were discharged or
sent to state institutions. Of those
who served sentence, 7S1 were wo-
men.
The statistical tables concerning
intoxication and vagrancy have
been complied from the sheriff IS
monthly reports. Those in jail for
drunkenness during the year num-
Der 13,400. There were 1908 men,
of whom 1926 were white and 687
were colored, and there were 497
women, of whom 389 were white and
10S colored. Marion county leads
in the list with a total admission
during the year of 1915. Vigo is
next with $500. In Jennings coun-
ty only 10 persons were jailed dur
ing the year.

SUBSTITUTE FOR COAL.
Marshall County Interested in Devel-
opment of Peat Products-Gov-
eminent Report on Industry.

Inasmuch as Marshall county is
destined, on account of its large peat
beds to become an important cen
ter for the peat industry, and the
factory that is now being establish
ed for its preparation, the following
dispatch from Washington, by a
government expert, has a local In
terest, and Marshall county is
sure to become known as the most
important place on the map. Time
will develop the natural resources,
and We will see ours the banner
county of the state and Of the ma
ton as well. Help boost it along.
Washington, Jan. 21.-If Ameri-
ca runs out of coal it may turn to
peat fields worth 100000 900, 900 for
domestic fuel, according to state
ments made by Charles A. Davis.
peat expert of the federal bureau
of mines. Mr.. Davis has been max
ing extensive Investigations into
the composition, value and utility of
the various mineral fuels of the
country.
The parts of this country where
peat is most abundant were relative
ly remote from the coal fields, Mr..
Davis says in a report on the sub
ject. This is regarded as an i'm
portant economic consideration.
Comparing peat with coal, the
former" Mr.. Davis says, "could be
produced with less danger and much
more cheaply than coal. As to heat
ing power, peat would be more
economical, for two tons of peat
doubtless could be bought for the
same price as one ton of coal, and
even the best Goals do not have
twice the heating value, pound for
pound, of good fuel peat"
"Peat of various grades" he
adds, 'may be used for many pur-
poses other than fuel. Paper can
be made from it, coarse fabrics,
dye stuffs, tanning materials, pack
ing material and fertilizer filler"

Think of Kentucky.

Wonder of wonders. Will they
never cease? Dispatches from Frank
fort, KY, dated Jan. 25, tells that
the County unit bill, regarded as the
most drastic anti-liquor legislation
ever enacted in Kentucky, passed the
state senate today by a vote of "a
to IA. The measure has been APP
proved by the lower house, and now
goes to the governor, who is ex-
pected to sign it. Both republicans
and democrats in their platforms
last fall declared for the law. The
dispatch says that it is perfectly
safe to say that within year there
will not be a harroom in the state.

Mrs. Hume Surprised.

Friday afternoon was the day for
the meeting of the Advanced Class
in Teacher Training, at the home of
Mrs. Mary Hume on south Michigan
street. There were fourteen men,
bers of the class present, and they
are finishing their work, preparatory
to receiving their diplomas at the
time of the annual county conven-
ton banquet on Feb. 18th. This
class has been under the supervision
Of Mrs. Hume since it was started
three years ago. The usual course
Is to take two books year, making
the course four years, or eight books
that are prepared for the work.
Mrs. Hume, with her usual ambition
and spirit, has managed to get the
class enthused with a desire to ex-
cell, and they have mastered the
eight books In the three years, and
are naturally rather elated at their
achievement, and thankful to their
teacher for her urging, now the hard
work is over, and the fruit of their
labor is ready for their hands.
They had arranged that at the
breaking up of the class after their
afternoon meeting, they should
make show of going to their homes
but should instead 60 to the home
of Mrs. Emma North on Minor
street, just east of the Hume resi-
dence, and then send for Mrs. Hume,
and have dinner together. Mrs.
Hume, not knowing of this arrange
ment, thought she would surprise
her classmates by serving them with
refreshments, and had also invited
Rev. W. c. Logan and family to
come over for supper at the usual
hour.
How to do was the question, and
the ladies finally managed to get
Mrs. Hume to 60 on some errand to
the North home, when each one
hastily gathered up some article that
would be wanted, pinned a note on
the door directing the Logan family
where to go, and followed Mrs.
Hume The surprise was a "for
sure surprise. but they had very
pleasant time, and enjoyed them
selves to the full extent.
AS a token of REGARD the class
presented Mrs. Hume with two
pictures, one being handsome
repr.st itation of Hoffman Christ
The presentation speech was made
hy Miss Gladys Hoover and those
who have CHANGED to hear Miss
Hoover in such role, say that she
is no novice at the business, and those
who heard her on this occasion de-
clare the speech was just right. Mrs.
Hume was equal to the emergency,
and responded in words that prove
she appreciated the gift and the
kindness of the givers.
OF course late hours would not be
in accord with such body Of
people, and after the dinner was
over they left, wishings the lives of
/ each viii be long spared to work in
accord with the lessons learned, and
do much service in the cause they
cherish more than all else.
