WHITE SLAVE. HYsTERIA.

May the hope be INDUCED that the
"whfte-slave" hysteria from which
the country has been suffering has
now run its course and is about to
give way to less confused thinking on
the subject of voluntary and inyolun-
tary prostitution?
Thanks to the sensational exploita-

The last legislature contained
the largest number of crooks and
incompetents of any Legislature
within the memory of the writer

detrimental measures than any
legislature in the history of the
state with less good legislation
One of the worst measures passed
so far as benefit to the public Is
concerned was the automobile law.

for the good of the public
The crooks. incompetents and
accidents composing the legisla-
ture were a curse to the state and
it's prosperity. Among the worst
measures was the law taxing au-
tomobiles and sending the money
to Indianapolis, preventing the
communities paying this tribute to
the officeholders from getting
dollar of the money. There Is no
objection among fair-minded men
of the taxing of automobiles. They
ought to be taxed. more than now.
If the money could be collected in
the counties where the automo-
biles are owned and the money

Under the fool law passed by
the crooks last winter every dollar
of the money collected goes to In
dianapolis, and not a dollar can
be collected in the counties for
local road Improvement.
This might not be so bad If
the money collected by the state
should be spent on the roads in
the counties where collected. But
1t is not. All Of this money goes
to Indianapolis and is there COB

crooks boosted into newly created
offices by the last legislature.
THE legislature created the au

of an automobile or motor truck
or vehicle in the state, and then
cerated new offices enough to ad-
minister the law to eat up in sal
aries and grabs OF one kind and
another all of the money collected.
In Wabash county there are prob
ably five hundred automobiles, the
average tax upon which will be 0S.
This means $4,000 from this county
alone and what will we get in re-
turn? Nothing.

of indianapolis for the exclusive
benefit of that city. and the coun-

The confession of Rev Hans

HIS REAL oFFENSE.

1t has been said with much perth
nency that Mr.. Bryan, in his present
series of chautauqua lectures. is the
associate of songsters, cornet players
and jugglers is of no particular con-
sequence in the circumstances. They
are doubtless doing their work well,
and association with them reflects no
special discredit on him The simple
truth is that he has no moral right
to be delivering chautauqua lectures
while he is secretary of state. That
is his offense, and it is an offense to
the nation.

The nrst run was made on Oct. &c, 1891,
In eight hours forty-two minutes, two
minutes behind time over a distance of
4361s miles. This high speed was made
possible only through the use OF spe-
cially designed engines, yet engines OF
that type would now be considered
very much out of date.

cat"
The original Cincinnatus was an an

about 500 years before Christ snd

~ him OF his election to high Office
was found hard at work on his farm
After holding the Office for a brief pc
Rod very satisfactorily and rendering
great public service he voluntarily re
signed 1t and returned to his farm
From this the name Cincinnatus came
to be applied in modern times to any
farmer-statesman and sometimes tc
statesmen who were no great farmers
or farmers who were no great states
men. 1t was first applied. and very
appropriately, to Washington, who
was termed 1.-The Cincinnatus Of Amer
