But when Joe reached the age
of 16 he began to see the drift OF
his life.
There is a little Indian blood
in his veins. He would make
something of himself, even If nc
one but his mother did care a
continental what became of him.
For several years he studied hard,
working during the three months
summer vacation.
1t was at the government school
that Joe met the daughter of his
instructor in blacksmithing. But
it's pretty hard to learn how
to study when you grow to man.
hood before beginning. Seems
like wasting time, too. That's
what Joe thought.
The two were married. That
was four years ago. Now there
are two little Carmonas-Jose,
81 years old, and Bonita, the
baby. Joe wanted his babies to
grow up to better chance than
he had, but the prospects we're
not overnight with but $50 per
month.
And still 1t was none of society's
business.
For eight months Joe Carmona
had been working in the postofrice
as porter. The government con-
tinued to pay him $50.
Then one day Joe saw the gilt
ter of pretty things. tempting him
from a ripped postal package.
Pretty toys for his children, bright
'colored petticoats for his wife,
who loved such things as all wom-
en- do: silver spoons and forks
that would twinkle so prettily on
the table, as they twinkled on tho
tables of his neighbors; things
life seemed determined to cheat
him of.
Joe took them.
Then society suddenly sat up
and took notice. 1t sent its officers
out to search Joe's house. They
found what he had taken.
Society Is always ready with
the medicine. But what of the
birthright OF free boyhood and
education. the lack of which seems
so closely related to Joe's crime,
of which society robbed him while

1t is not necessary to keep your
mouth stretched in broad grin.
There is the smile of interest
which gives sparkle to the eyes
and draws the face forward. The
smile of content turns up the cor

eyes. There is the roguish smile
of mischief, the broad smile of
humor, the tremulous smile of
compassion. the sympathetic
smile of charity. and the ineffable
smile of love which suffuses the

ROOSEVELT AND INDIANA.

One thing that disgusts the ordinary
man so much with the Roosevelt
boom is the amount of clatter and
bunk about it.
For instance. the following state
ment was issued from the Chicago
Roosevelt headquarters yesterday:
There is no doubt whatever
that the sentiment of the people
In Indiana is overwhelmingly for
Col. Roosevelt. With the excep-
ton of a very few districts 1 con-
fdently expect and predict that in
structed delegates for him will be
sent to Chicago" a
Now why tell such a glaring false
hood that the sentiment of Indiana
is overwhelming for ROOSEVELT" Ev-
erybody knows it is false as the bot
tomless pit Then Roosevelt's Chica-
go organ. the Tribune, proceeds to
elaborate and says that Roosevelt
will carry Indiana. etc.
The progress of the Roosevelt boom
will be something like this:
January-Dee-lighte
February-Dee-bated
March-Dee-fiated.
April-Dee-tested.
May-Dee-jected
June-Dee-feated.

ABOUT THE COUNTY.

Editor TIMEs:-Is it not now a good
time to suggest df proper) that nom
partisan, non-political, convention be
called In Lake county to select candi-
dates for Judges of the different courts
and circuit prosecutor. thus taking our
courts entirely out of politics? Judg
ing from remarks relating to the work
of the courts in Lake county. 1T would
seem that when Governor Marshall
made his appointments. he must have
had very reliable information or else
made a first class guess as to the quail
fications of those he appointed judges
OF all those holding office. 1t would
seem though those at the head of
the courts should certainly be above
politics If possible. No political quail
fication should be demanded Perhaps
the same might be said also about
those who are sent to make our laws
still many of our people would not yet
consent to that. Respectfully.
