. having landlords remit ten per cent
OF /. rent until the high cost Of liv-

WAR TOLL IN FIFTY YEARS
over Two Million Men Have Been
Killed in Battles of Modern

London. The Balkan war has given
the generation some idea Of what war

the growing horror that a Bavarian
newspaper should present its readers
with a striking record of the wars of

Under a series of little pictures of
fallen soldiers on the battlefield It
gives the number killed in each great
war Of the past half century, with the
strange exception of the Boer war.
Here is the record

bones. Margaret Williams. 12-year-old
daughter of a wealthy farmer living
near Medora Kan has suffered 20
fractures Of the legs and more than a
dozen of the arms. Ever since she has
been old enough TO walk the bones Of
her legs and arms have snapped at
the slightest jar or quick movement.
Physicians say her bones lack some
element They are soft and spongy.
Fortunately, the girl doesn't suffer as
much pain from these fractures as do
others under normal conditions. but it
is necessary to treat the fractures the
same as in other cases and the child
has spent fully half her time lying
with her legs in splints.

But no. A group of bull moosers, a
party meets and perfects party or
ganization. 1t lines up with the
democratic, republican, socialist and
prohibition parties for the purpose of
perpetuating the rule of cities by
party organization when that is just
what the people of this community
are trying to avoid.
The bull moose movement this year
| lacks the Teddy fanaticism of 1912.
1t lacks the momentum that was given
| the movement by the internal protest
against stand-patism in the republic
can party.
There is positively nothing offered
and nothing to expect from either the
personnel or the propaganda of the
party in Hammond. The movement
is merely the reflex of the same move
ment that defeated the republican
party alIover the country last year.
| Were a group of 100 or more citi-
zens of acknowledged ability, possess
ing at least some of the qualities of
leadership and above all men of de-
monstrated ability to announce them
selves as the sponsors of a movement
to unite the progressive forces in all
political parties under a local indie
pendent ticket there would be such a
scramble to get aboard as has never
been seen in Hammond.
i We know conditions are ripe for a
change. We know that Hammond
demands an administration that will
be progressive and will eliminate the
barnacle type of city Official from the
city council We know that nine
tenths of the citizens of Hammond
are praying, "Oh Lord how long as
they see one progressive project after
another bowled over and brought to
naught but they do not see how the
bull moose remnant can prescribe a
remedy The Hammond bull moosers
want to vote the democratic machine
into power again. That's what they
will do.

LIVING--MONEY.

Never, apparently, were people so
prosperous as now. You see it every
where You see clerks and book
keepers wearing raincoats who only
a few years ago had one cloth coat
against either cold or wet. You see
middle-class people dining in smart
places where prices have no relation
to the value of food. You see a mason
going to work in patent leather shoes
and day laborer in his trench at
noon-time eating eggs and white
bread spread with butter or jelly
And you wonder if the cost of living
has risen, in the strict sense, OF
whether, in spite of high prices, the
command people have over goods to
supply their wants is not greater
than was ever the case before.
The common notion that the cost oil
living has risen in a manner to in
flict Eardships upon the consumer
was challenged recently by The
Annalist in an article tending te
