DETECTIVES INCREASE
AT ALARMING RATE

Dr.. S. E. Smith. superintendent of
the Eastern Indiana Hospital for the
Insane and a member of the commit
tee appointed some time ago by Gov
ernor Ralston to study the problem of
mental detectives in Indiana has re-
turned from Indianapolis where he at
tended the first meeting of the COM
mittee held in the offic, OF the State
Board Of Charities.
Figures we're presented to the COM
mittee showing that in the ten years
ending Oct. 1, 1914, there was an in
crease OF 1,4OO in the number of de-
fectives in state institutions, more
marked increase than in the penal or
benevolent institutions.
The committee decided to prepare
for a survey or census of mental de-
fectives in Indiana and will meet
again on January 6 to consider the
plan. The committee which was
named at the suggestion Of the chart
ties board is to report to the governor
by next November

WHAT oD,a1se

The world-war has so overshadowed Ameri-
can politics that little attention has been paid
to the preparations of Republican and Demo
cratic national parties for the big campaigns
next year.
AT this distance from mainland activities, it
looks as if the Progressives will have little
more than paper organization in 1916 that
is, unless the Republican reactionaries should
insist on nominating for president some man
so inefficient or unpopular that there would be
3 revolt Of the rank and file In that case the
Progressives would doubtless flock by them
selves again and split the G. 0. P. in another
hopeless situation.
No one who has followed mainland politics
in the past year can have failed to notice the
steady drift of prominent Progressives back to
the Republican fold. Col Rooseyelt's lieuten-
ants ia state after state are declaring that the

fragments, by no means his best. The
creator OF Sherlock Holmes, q feeble
imitation Of Poe's Dupin, has shelf
space for % volumes, while the great
critic Sainte-Beuve is allotted two
books. Jack London, who wrote one
good book, ''The Call of the Wild, " and
since then has produced nonsense,
swells the list of absurdities with 20
contributions, while Prosper Merimee
is held to two books Last of all we
may note that the fantastic drivelings
of F. M. Crawford gush through no
fewer than SO volumes, while the
mighty irony of Hardy can fill only
nine.
And the same state of affairs seems
to continue throughout the list. In
history we find no copy of Bury's edi-
ton of Gibbon, nor any sign of
Ranke's Welt Geschichte, nor any
trace of Dio Cassius or Diodorus Sic
illus, or even of the mastery Poly
bus. And how shall the student of
Greek history proceed when he finds
no copy of Connop Thirwall, Bury,
Duruy, Beloch, Meyer or even Busolt
with his indispensable icomparatiye
notes. But 1t is useless to pile up
further examples. This Is indicative
of the state of the whole We can
merely call the attention of the pub
lie and wait for the government to
act.

Gen. Polivanoff, the new Russian war minis
ter, is talking of raising new army of 2,OOOO 600
men by spring. Probably he will have no diff
Guilty doing that but if he can arm these two
million he will be accomplishing wonders.
Russia has been getting ready for war ever
since 1905 and still when her millions we're
mobilized last spring there was painful short
age of infantry munitions and equipment.
When one of the Russian forts fell few days
ago survivors said that $4,000 of the defenders
had been fighting without arms. And an Ameri-
can war correspondent recently wrote of ser
les of battles in which the Russians, retreating
doggedly before the splendidly equipped Ger
mans, had nothing but stout cudgels as weap-
ons. The usual Russian incompetence, graft
and carelessness in governmental circles is ap-
parently not lacking In this war;

promaries than by continuing their independ

10, who controls the Erie county organizations
and many others, have announced their inten
ton of rejoining the Republicans.
Col Roosevelt himself has taken kindly at
titude toward the deserters. He says:
AS regards the Progressiyes who have announced
their intention of enrolling Republicans in this
state, have nothing to say except that think it
has been fine of them to have made the great fight
they have made during the past three years for Pro-
gressive principles and am sure they are acting
conscientiously In the step they now take and with
the purpose Of doing what they regard most useful
to the community.
Holding the convictions do II would be an i'm
possibility for myself to take that step. shall

asks my advice shall advise him also TO enroll as
Progressive.
A great many papers of all political faiths
believe that Roosevelt's leniency toward those
who quit his party is due to the fact that be
himself expects to support a Republican for
president if one energies whom he can support
with any degree of consistency. Others think
that Roosevelt is waiting for the Republican
leaders to make him some overtures.
In San Francisco recently the Colonel was
asked as to his candidate for president and he
indicated that Governor johnson is the man.
However, johnson is not conceded any chance
of election whatever.
William Allen White, the Kansas editor, in
Inmates that the party should stay in existence
in the hope that two or four or eight years
from now American sentiment will turn toward
the Progressive program Of social justice.
But the great body of Progressives who fol-
lowed Roosevelt out of the Chicago convention
and its party lines are back in the Republican
party again, it would SEEM. Certainly the
various state elections showed that the Pro-
gressive organization is but a shadow of its
former self IF the Republicans should nomi-
nate such man as Borah, or Root, or Hughes,
the Progressiyes would hage little pportunity
for another grand 'revolt. Ofconrse their radi-
Gals hate Root because of his connection with
the Chicago convention, but Roots pre- eminent
ability and the feeling that he would be mas
ter in handling international relations would
probably constitute greater sources of strength
than his 1912 affiliations constitute sources of
weakness.
incidentally, it is very interesting to note
the drift of sentiment toward Justice Hughes
Progressives in New York have already men
toned him as man they could support. If
the reactionaries who are still strong In ma
tional Republicanism will stand aside, Hughes
might be secured as the standard bearer. And,
say the old campaigners, Hughes could give

'I shouldn't decry that former state, however, because l went to Eu- rope and had the most marvellous advan- tages out of my pink roses and blue back grounds, but it is so much bigger now, so much more perfect in detail and color ar rangement that as I said previously can't help remarl1ing that china paint ing is an art all of it's own now"

 Another is a Sandwich Set the design being taken from an old Persian tile, which Miss Douglas saw at the Metro- politan museum in New York.
