FACTS.

One of the most difficult mental &C
complishments is to believe facts.
The man who will actually believe
a fact after he has measured it is
hard enough to find--but the man
who is willing to measure a fact,
even when there is a chance that it
may go against him, is as difficult to
locate as feathers on a billiard ball.
Self-deception always is the easiest
way of coming to a decision as to
facts, and we are all guilty. Pro-
custes had nothing on the rest of u.s.
Mental mayhem is more popular than
common sense, and the cerebrum is
lat the mercy of the binocular lens:
|all of which is an expensive way of
Saying that we lie purposely to our
selves. We know that colored glasses
will hide the truth, and yet we use
them. When we carry the thing too
far we become insane; and all men
are insane on some subjects.
A lunatic is man who has hallu-
cinations. He thinks something is,
when it isn't.
We are all that way to a certain
extent
The Illinois farmer who traded his
farm for gold mine in the middle OF
the ocean was not much different
from the gentleman at Jacksonville
who thought he was julius Caesar.
The difference was simply a differ
ence in degree

nothing but a wrong measurement o.
facts. frequently by people who hay.
had an opportunity to know better.
Does the fact hurt? Never mind
1t is fact; and facts are the friends
of truth. Believe, them, whateve
Iyou do, for Truth suffers more from
misinformed and prejudiced friend
than from open enemies, and Truth
: without Facts to begin on is an i'm

A GOOD SHOWING.

Whatever the shortcomings of the
Erie railroad may be, one fact stands
out prominently, when wrecks of re-
cent years. some of which sound like
battle fields, are enumerated.
The Erie road in over three years
has carried 105,000.000 passengers
and in ten years not a single pass
|enger has been killed in an Erie train
wreck. That is indeed a remarkable
showing especially when compared to
the siaughtering that has been going
on during the past two years on the
New Haven railroad.
The latter has had fourteen serious
wrecks in a little more than twenty
four months. The list of killed and
injured mounts up to 4S4 names
Aside from the lack of Accommodations
Ito the travelling public charge oil
which the majority of roads are more
or less guilty from the public's
standpoint, the only complaint heard
about the Erie, is that it is SLOW"
In the face of the showing that the
road Is able to make as compared t.
the faster lines it can easily justify
tits policy on the matter of time

LUCKY MEN.

The principal of the Gary free
night schools has issued bulletin
announcing the establishment of
courses in cooking, domestic nursing
and home training for girls and mar
ried women.
Engaged girls who are to be mar
ried, 1t is expected, will take advant-
age of the opportunity now offered
At last the girl who works in an
office during the day will have a
chance to become a good cook for the
husband that she will marry sooner
or later. And lot of young women
who were married before they be-
came good cooks will now have a
chance to improve.
The Gary idea is sensible one and
the only thing odd about it is that
no one thought of it long ago.

Daniel H. Tolman, the alleged
loan shark" who, it is said, has
made over million dollars by lend
ing money to working people at i'm
mense rates of interest, has his case
set for trial in the Court of Special
Sessions today. National interest is
being taken in his trial
Tolman is charged personally with
the misdemeanor in this as the prose-
|cuting witness testifies to having dis
cussed the loan with him. In all
other cases which have been brought
against Tolman, it was always one
Iof his employees who was named in
the complaint. Tolman denies hav-
ing had any conference with the bor-
rover in this case and at his arraign-
ment said he did not appear in the
office more than once in three months
only on the days his books were be-
ling audited.

TIMES BUREAU
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis, Ind. Sept. 23.-It has
been announced that field examiners of
the state board OF accounts will soon
being work thorough examination
of the books and accounts of the Gov
ernors office. The examination will
extend back through the administra-
ton of Governor Marshall. but wheth-
er 1t will go back further and include
the administrations of Governor Hanly
and Others ia not yet known.
This will be the irst examination OF
the Governors office Accountants have
been working in other state offices. but
this is the first time for the Governors
office. Some Of the politicians profess
to see in this announcement little
game of politics on the part of the
state Democratic machine. 1t is well
known that the Indiana machine has
little or no standing with the national
administration at Washington. and
much of the blame for this condition of
affairs has been laid at the door of
Vice President Marshall. The Indiana
machine has not been able to control
any appointments at Washington thus
far Every time that the machine has
tried to put over an appointment the
administration at Washington has
baked. ana the result is tfial NO ACN-
erai pie has yet been passed to the
Indiana organization.
Vice President Marshall has been con-
suited frequently by President Wilson
| in regard to appointments for Indiana,
and II is the general understanding
that the vice President has at least
failed to show any direct interest in
helping the machine land its men, 1t
is this fact that has caused some of the
politicians to surmise that tie pro-
posed examination of the Governor
office has as one of it's objects to see
if something cannot be found that
might be used as a club on the vi9s
President to make him come to time.
No one has the slightest idea that the
effort If such is the purpose, if such
! is the purpose. will be successful along
this line, for Marshalrs administration
of the office of Governor was high
grade. 1t is pointed out further that
the organization may hope to profit by
| the investigation, even IL 1t fails to find
anything on Marshall, for 1t can then
go further back and investigate the
Republican governors and find some
thing political out of which to make
political campaital for the next cam
paign.
If they should happen to find any
| thing that they could use as club or
| Marshall, as we'll and good. But If they
could find that his administration was
| above reproach but could find at the
| same time that Manly or some other
Republican had done something OF 9
political nature with which they coule
hammer him the macine might then GO
before tie people with a comparison o.
the administrations aid seek to make
political capital out of it, At leas
that it what soma of he politicians arr
saying.

EQUAL SUFFRAGE AGAIN.

East Chicago. Ind,
Sept. "a, 1913.
Editor THE TIMES: The report which
appeared in last Fridays TIMES re-
garding a question raised at the re-
cent meeting of the Civic Department
of the Hammond W-oman's Club is in
perfect accord with your papers policy
of opposition to. and often ridicule of.
the theory OF femade suffrage. Allow
me to congratulate you the clever
manner In which you inject the policy
of the paper into a news item. Retribu-
ton will surely overtake your other
wise excellent journal some day when
the women of Indiana get the vote.
It must be that members of the
above mentioned organization who
reached the conclusion that indirect in
fluence for good legislation is more
powerful than the exercise of the BAL
lot, have been too much occupied with
household and social duties to reason
| out for themselves the advantages to
humanity of the woman's vote.
If the woman in her proper
sphere" Is contented.-unappal by
the increase Of corruption in govern
ment. 1t should at least reach her con-
seriousness that each of us owes a debt
| to the millions of women who are
| toiling daily under deplorable condi-
| tions because they have not the power
of the ballot to aid them Each day they
bend their backs to the burden in the
world OF industry because there are
not spheres" enough to so 'roundl
/ If we more fortunate women found
| 1T possible to furnish them with their
| weapons of self-defense. 1t would seem
a pitiful thing to withhold 1t. Indirect
influence in politics has had fair trial
of over one hundred years in this coun-
try, and no one can deny my assertion
that so far as legislation for the people
and by the people is concerned things
are going from bad to worse.

The Terre Haute Star, one of the
Star league of newspapers, has deesrt-
ed the Progressive cause and is now
fighting for the election of the Repub-
lican candidate for mayor of Terre
Haute. 1t is said that Star found that
there was no chance for the election of
the Progressive candidate and that the
only way to beat Dom Roberts. the
Crawford Fairbanks Democrat, was by
supporting the Republican nominee,
and that the flop followed. Thus, the
Star league is divided against itself.
The indianapolis Star Is fighting tooth
and toe nail for the Progressive ticket.
Some uneasiness has been caused
among several OF the state officials
and appointees since the publication
of the fact that the Democratic ma
chine has made up most of it's slate
for the state nominations next year
and that all of the Marshall appoittees
still in the service of the state are to
be let out to make room for machine
men. Some of the friends of j. Fred
France, clerk of the supreme court.
insist that he stands all right with the
machine, and that the report that the
machine might try to defeat him for
denomination was wrong. They point
out that France always has had the
support. of the machnine, and that
there is no reason now why the ma
chine should turn his down for someone
else, 1t is understood. too, that since
the publication of this story there
has started a movement to prevent
the machine from putting across the
nomination of Homer L. Cook for

A NEWSPAPER IS A PERSONALITY

1t might as well be admitted frank
ly that the newspaper is a personali-
ty rather than a common carrier of
news; in fact, that it cannot be a
common carrier of news because 1t
would be swamped with its freight.
All that can be expected of it is that
1t report the news honestly as a per-
son of a certain attitude and view
point might-a pervasive and extend

Looking ahead from the present view
point the knowing ones express con-

they will not turn over to others these
