NEWS AND EVIDENCE.

The discussion of Outrages alleged

mood. and that is all that could be
reasonably desired at this time.
The American public, 10 which this
discussion is chiefly addressed, has
neither the phlegmatic proneness to
prejudice Of the Germans or the Eng

the French. IT can read the news

Again our city administration has
gone the limit in it's seeming deter
mination to aggravate the visiting
public this time venting its spleen
upon our no less frequent callers than
the people of Mishawaka.
1t is true that there is an ordinance
on our muascipal statute books
against the prcniscuous distribution
of hard-bills ard dodgers on the city
streets Locally too. the law is gem
orally we'll observed. This is no
criticism OF the law on the observance,
but il seems rather rude to carry it
20 such extremes as recently resorted
30, when Mishawaka. for the purpose
of inviting patronage for it's home
coming week-nOt a commercial af-
fair, but more of a social nature
was forced TO suffer the chagrin of
having her committee taken to task
and her advertising program stopped.
And thus the breach between South
Bend and Mishawaka is again widen
ed. The sister city will find it diff
cult TO overlook the restriction placed
upon her here in the furtherance of
so cOmmendable a purpose as she
was seeking TO advance. Rumblings
are frequently heard when a South
Bender and Mishawakan get together.
The friendly spirit which South Bend
should exert every energy to show
and which individuals do seek to
show. should have administrative CO.
operation, but apparently the need Of
it is too deep for our board of safety
and police department TO comprehend.
IL is getting to be something of a
bore TO be unable TO leave South Bend
for a neighboring city without being
called upon for a string of apologies
for our administrative idiosyncraCies.
and now the burden of trying to
smooth IL over with SO near a neigh
Dor as Mishawaka has been added
the Offense in this latter case being
not of an individual. but OF the city
itself. which naturally increases the
scope and intensifes the resentment.
Mishawaka, however. can rest as
sured in this. The people of South
Bend are friendly TO her. and while
they must bear the burden of the acts
OF their officials. they do not always
approve Of them, and the case of
which she complains belongs on the

being a party OF principles not men
or names but the republicans notice
that the most conspicuous part of the
progressive party is one man and one
name. They take little stock in the
lofty pretensions OF the man whose
name is the shibboleth of his party.
There would be no glory for Roose-
welt in a compromise. and glory is his
goal. The colonel would rather be
glorious than president. and that is
saying a good deal for the glory end
of the proposition. Standing out in
the clear against the clouds that cast
a gloom over republican politics the
colonel is a prototype Of the Ma

spotlight a century ago. What is
there in the suggestion of COM
