LET 1T BE TOLD.

1t is a fine work those L. 5. chemists
at Denver have done in discovering
"a new secret process" for producing
radium and it is finer still to believe
that government radium will be at
the command of the suffering poor as
well as the rich. But
Why keep the process secret?
Uncle Sam has done fine thing in
giving to the world a 100000, 600
canal. Why not give this process
which means life TO thousands suffer-
ing from that awful affiction. cancer,
TO the world? Surely Uncle Sam
doesn't want to make money out Of
the saving of lives. Radium is about
the scarcest thing in the world and
one of the most valuable. If Uncle
Sam has found a way to secure it more
oheaply, he should show his process,
in all its details TO all the world. To
secrete and profit by this blessing to
suffering humanity would be playing
an ignoble part.

keeping with the industrial, agricul-
tural, educational. and other resources
of the state, the commission took a
chance on the additional $4,000
deemed necessary, sand the Legislature
has approved of its course.
This approval was virtually solid.
Republicans as we'll as democrats ad-
mitted the wisdom of the expenditure.
OF course there was opposition from
the outside. Citizens from over the
state were OF the opinion that they
we're being robbed. They merely
could not have understood. The facts
Placed before the legislature. how
ever, seem TO have been sufficient to
convince that body that there had
been no such advantage taken Of the
state, as detractors had asserted, and
that for a proper exhibit the $4,000
extra is both necessary and desirable.
And without a proper exhibit Indi-
ana might better have none at all, and
the $500 appropriated two years
ago might better have been say ed
from the start. Indiana is not stingy.
Having measured up nov to the COM
missions asserted needs, however, the
state will have a right to expect a
show that measures up to the full ex-
pense of it, Less expense for the
commission, expended on the main
tenance Of secretaries, for travel, and
such like. and a larger downright in
vestment in placing the state prop
eTly before the world, is bound to be
among the public demands. Indiana
will of right expect full account of
the stewardship of the commission,

tons

the performance. Indianians should
have reason TO be proud of their

for and the legislature has wisely ap-
proved of the needed expense.

HITS THE BORROWER.

1t is asserted that. under the
Houston Plan" of taxation. which
eXempts bank deposits, such deposits
IL Houston have largely increased and
that money can be had from tie banks
of that city on short time loans at six
per cent, whereas the prevailing rate
OF interest in other Texas points is
eight per cent.
Why not Placing a tax on monies
on deposit in banks must necessarily
induce many TO keep their surplus
funds in safe deposit vaults or other
hiding place and the less money the
banks have TO loan the higher the
interest rate of course.
Houston's experience is but another
proof of the fallacies OF our universal
tax system and an argument in favor
OF home rule in taxation.

its movement but coming along"

WASHINGTON Feb. p. - Diplo-
mats have a language and phrase
ology of their own. The object of
diplomatic language is 10 avoid saying
anything directly. A hint is consid-
cred far more polite and more desir-
able than a request After years Of
schooling in the use of the diplomatic
form OF utterance true diplomat
comes to employ hints and indirec-
ton even in everyday affairs of COM
paratively little moment
For example. if diplomat were
asking stranger for match he
would not says. Please gimme a
match" but would state that If the
stranger should at any time feel dis
posed to offer him a match for the
purpose of assisting him in carrying
out any intention he might have of
lighting his cigaret. he feels certain
the kind offer would be construed by
the nation he represents as friendly
actor something like that.
This brings us to the case Of Col
NicOlai Golejewski and the dog. Col
Golejewskf il the military attache of
the Russian embassy in Washington
He owns an attractive. fashionable
looking dog Of the breed known as
the Chow. One day Col. Golejewski
made the acquaintance of news
paper man who also owns a Chow,
and this Chow took the Russian dip
lOmat's fancy. He asked the news
paper man if he ever CHANGED to have
any little puppies of the type and
color Of the dog accompanying him.
If so. the Russian desired to buy one.
The possibility led to a long diplo-
matte correspondence between the
two men. Being a high-grade and
experienced diplomat, Col. Golejew-
ski naturally did not discuss buying
a pup in the same simple, straight
forward language that you, who read
this. might employ. You or 1 would
doubtless have written merely: Dear
Sir-What will you take for a pup?'
That would he 70 the point, but it
would not be diplomatic language.
So when the Russian wrote the
first of a number of letters regarding
the purchase of a pup it was letter
characterized by diplomatic phrase
ology. I am not able to give this let
ter exactly verbatim, but it ran
somewhat as follows:
Dear Sir:-Having in mind the
desirability of a purchase such as we
discussed on the street some days
ago. it is my rare privilege TO assure
you that if such a transaction should
appear to you mutually advantageous.
should be only too willing to enter
tain whatever proposal you may deem
proper.
while not wishing TO urge upon
you any undue haste in this matter.
yet / feel that | should bring to your
attention my desire to enter into ne
gotiations having for their ultimate
object such a purchase as has been
suggested, and if for any reason it
should not be convenient for you to
further my wishes in this regard at
the present time it is quite possible
thta l may find it expedient to make
such other arrangements as may be
necessary in the circumstances. Any
departure, however, from the tenta
tive transaction we have discussed
will. I am sure, in no way detract
from our cordial relations or lessen
my feeling. which 1 trust is mutual,
OF entire good will and esteem
