PAID sNEAKs.

A paid sneak from Gary has just in
vaded Whiting and succeeded in caus-
ing the arrest of business man there,
under the guise of being a member OF
g detective agency. When the case
comes up for trial IL the business man
is convicted, the p. s. will probably
get few fees which will keep the
wolf from his door for a little while.
This paper never yet upheld law vio-
lations, but it believes that the police
of city are paid to see that the laws
are observed and that in whiting
they are doing it to the best of their
ability.
A sneak is about the most con-
temptible thing on earth. His method
of procedure itself is so underhand-
ed that how a thinking man could
possibly believe his story is more
than can be understood by the
ordinary person.

THE STREAM THAT is NEVER
CROSSED.

There's many a sorrow and pain /
know.
As we tread the path of life;
There's many a grief and lasting woe.
And the way is toll and strife.
But the hardest load we have to bear
AS the labor and strength that's los.
In building the bridge with toilsome
Ger the stream that is never crossed.
We have fretting and worry from morn
till night
And anguish weighs on the heart:
The thorny way seems hard to right.
And life is bitter part.
But there is q. burden greater yet,
Much peace of soul 1t has cost
1t Is building a bridge with toll and
sweat
Ger the stream that is never crossed.
There's looking for crossings all the
day
And searching along the shore
For a bridge or ford along the way
We shall never travel DER
There's signing for useless tops in vain
And dreaming of chances lost;
But tits hardest to bridge with might
and main
The stream that is never crossed
Then gather the roses along the way;
And treasure the fragrance rare:
Rejoice In the bright and joyous day
Refusing to borrow care.
For sorrow and pain will surely come
And your soul be tried and tossed
But don't be bridging TO reach you,
home
Ger the stream that is never crossed

A MAYORS SYMPATHY.

The mayor of Kokomo who is a
doctor was recently called upon to
try woman accused of prostitution
In his decision he said in part:
While her conduct deserves con-
demnation, yet she should not be
allowed to go beyond our sympathy
and pity. We should not forget
that this woman was at one time
somebody's little girl, and was the
subject of a loving mothers fond
est hopes. BY what Influences and
environments she has been brought
to her present dishonor we know
not. But II we are SO fortunate as
to occupy place above her We can
afford to extend to her our pity and
our help"
When the judgment day comes and
the leaves of the Judgement Book
unfold who is there to deny that
credit will not be given the Kokomc
city official for those words? What
a world it would be If the same
sympathy was extended where it i:
deserved.

MARSHALL'S MISTAKE.

Governor Thomas r. Marshall has
again proven himself a straddler He
sat astride the local option issue DUR
ing his Lake County campaign for
the governorship and lost hundreds
of votes in this part of the state as
result
Now he has placed himself in a
'slide-off-either-w attitude on the
question of the capital punishment of
George Davis. convicted of a brutal
murder In Gary.
A few silly sentimentalists petit
toned the governor to save the neck
of a cold, remorseless, unrepentent
negro murderer of woman The
governor hardened to their plea
On the other hand there were the
newspapers which approaching with
the difficulty of coping with the dis
graceful prevalence Of homicides in
this part of the state, demanded the
execution of Davis.
To satisfy the mawkish senti-
mentalists Governor Marshall saved
Davis miserable life. To satisfy the
press he issued a statement in which
he declared that, hanging is toe
good for him. He went farther and
elaborated on the horrors of i'm.
lprisonment for life at hard labor.
| But this community which ha:
suffered the disgrace of its homicida
record does not see the matter IL
that way There are still scores o.
negroes and foreigners in this com
munity with murder in their heart:
and the wholesome effect that The
execution of Davis would have had il
lost; absolutely lost.

Davis at Hammond remember tina

idle never knaw."
Perhaps this morning you faced the
routine OF a busy. exacting day with
revolt and discomfort Perhaps you
said: III l only didn't have to work"
You will remember tomorrow
morning. won't you, that in the neces-
sity for meeting the greatest antidete
for worry and discomfort and disap-
pointment that the world has ever
known. and that in the ability to meet
these exactions' you have a blessing
which many thousands or your fellow
beings envy you with all their hearts
Perhaps you are of another class
OF those who are able to work. but
are not obliged to-
Then you are not so fortunate as
those who have something they must
do every day. whether they like IL or
not. but IL you will. you may still be
much more fortunate than those who
cannot be busy. no matter how much
they may wish to be.
For you, Mrs Phelps great line is
not SO much a reminder of your bless
fngs, as a suggestion of the possibili-
ties of your life.

One of the most wonderful lines that
Elizabeth Stuart Phelps ever wrote was
this: TOO useful to be lonely and too
busy to be sad
She was writing of woman who
had many of the ordinary reasons for
unhappiness. but was not unhappy be-
cause she was too useful to be lonely
and too busy to be sad
I was quoting that line to an invalid
friend the other day and she sighed.
NO one knows better than how true
that is" she said. Its just because I
haven't the strength to keep or anxiety
and discomfort that way, because ] can't

am so unhappy. I used to think my life
was pretty hard when had to work all
the time, but now I know how very
fortunate was then. No one who has
the health and strength to work and

what real sadness is.

because of sorrow or disappointment.

once planned them. ard because they
have to work very hard. bear her

necessity of working hard - your

the entire negro community looked
upon 1t sas melodrama in real life
in which they were playing more or
less important roles. Their love of
notoriety was gratified to the fullest
extent. Prison for life is not seri-
Gus matter for one of these. II means
at least three square meals a day.
But death Is different matter. 1t
is thing that even the lowest
animal is taught to fear. The talk
that Davis wanted to have 1t all over
is greatly exaggerated. 1t was but
another exhibition of his melo-
dramatic bravado. In truth and in
fact there were times when his
cowardly nature manifested itself
completely and he covered, growled
and trembled when the hand of the
grim reaper stretched out towards
him.
The execution of Davis was the
only thing that would have had a
deterrent effect on the reign of crime
that is prevalent in certain districts
in Gary. East Chicago and Hammond.
The horror of it would have APP
pealed even to the most circumscrib-
ed intellect. 1t would have made
these criminals realize that their
own ignorance and viciousness makes
"a life for a life'' the full measure OF
Justice; even IN this civilized country
The Indianapolis News which is
Gov. Marshalrs mouth-piece says:
| 1t seems to us that, in these days
when it is so difficuit to get 1uries
to convict on to impose adequate
/ penalties which they do convict, the
executive officer who sets aside a
verdict imposing the death penalty
assumes very grave responsibili-
ty. The state of Indiana, as rep
resented by its legislature. believes
in the death penalty for certain
offenses, murder among them The
jury IN this case, after hearing all
the evidence. observing the wit
nesses. and noting the demeanor of
4 the murderer, decided that he had
j fairly forfeited his life. 1t is not
| contended that the trial was not
fair. or that justice was not done.
1t is merely insisted that Davis
ought to have the extreme"
penalty, and that the jury had erred
in thinking that death was the ex-
treme penalty. We can not see
that the Governor was called on to
interfere. 1t would. 1t seems to US,
| have been better for him to allow
the law to take It's course.

mental control over the public health
in rather striking form. He says
"A farmer has a sick hog. He

sends him an expert--a hog Doctor
to attend to the hog.
"A poor woman has sick child
