MURDER AND TORTURE AGAINST OUR MEN. NOTHING CAN JUSTIFY OR WILL BE HELD TO JUSTIFY THE USE OF TORTURE OR INHUMAN CONDUCT OF ANY KIND ON THE PART OF THE AMERICAN ARMY -PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. The islands of Martinique and St. Vincent are very good places from which to emigrate just noAV. Look out for the granting of free street franchises to private individuals.

They only Avant them to selL What this etly needs is a little more law enforcement against professional law breakers before it goes after bicyclists who neglect to light their lanterns, Fort Wayne people arc looking forward Avith great interest to the time When the bad Ckn eland bankers shall sell the local Traction company's property to the good Philadelphia philanthropists. Governor Leonard Wood will turn over to the neAv Cuban government about $400,000 saved from the customs receipts. It Avill. be interesting to-learn how long it will take the Cubans to turn that surplus into a deficit. Will American charity and Araer- Jeaa sympathy be so quickly and emphatically expressed in behalf of the vrkloAvs and orphans so suddenly be- by the mine explosion in Ten- ftesseej as they Avere in the case of the West India tragedy of a few days ago? Doubtful.

The insurrections, riots, murders, and bloodshed which have been occurring jn the republic of may be considered a good example of what A probably follow should we adopt the proposed plan of turning over the reins of government 1o the Filipinos and ghing them so- called liberty. r. Tammany is to bo managed by committee, not a boss, hereafter. The Harrison Chit-ago democracy is alsoto be managed hei'eafter by a committee, not a boss. The committee in each case Avill work through sub-committees, Avhich Avill Avork through a manager, not a boss.

Under this arrangement the "manager" can live at Wnntage, England, while the committee carries out his instructions in Xew York. Dr. Edward Everett Hale, in a recent magazine article, says: In the treaty of 1814 it Avas Avith difficulty that even Mr. Gallatin and Mr. Clay could be held up to the mark of retaining for the United States the great Northwestern territory.

"What is the they said. "It only give? you the care of the Yet, in a doubtful territory are the states of Jowa, Wisconsin, a of Michigan. Minnesota, and Avho should say how much of the country westward? -x- President is receiving- much praise for his prompt and decisive action in the matter of relief for the Martinique volcano sufferers, lemming thai the diciatcs of humanity would impel congress to appropriate the funds necessary to succor the suffering, yet not Avaitiug for the slow Avorking machinery of legislation, and the red tape ol departmental methods, he ordered a vessel prepared and loaded for the errand without delay. By the time congress had acted Ihe vessel was ready to sail, and left NCAV York on Wednesday. Following the ordinary procedure it Avould have been a Avcek yet before the vessel could have gotten auay.

Our president has the nerve to meet an emergency. Tho.se politicians who arc predicting explosive campaign material out of the supposed split in the republican party, growing out of the Cuban mat ter, may have a surprise party in store for themselves. It is remein bered that jubilant predictions Aver made along the same lines concerning the difference of republican opinion regarding Porto Rico, Avhen th status of that island was discussec in congress, and yet the Avhole mat 'ter Av-as forgotten Avithir two months. The president and th party leaders suffered some an noyance in the failure to pass a meas ure Avhich Avould have been attacket by the enemy as legislation in favo of the sugar trust. It may be tha congress will adjourn HOAV withou any action on this question.

If so all the campaign material so as siduously collected by the democrat Avill be found to lack starch, and th poor democracy AA-ill still be withou an issue. Indianapolis NCAVS: We desire emphasize the plea of the board state charities for the separation the Girls' Industrial school and the Women's prison. We urged thi i for years and the state board ha urged it. There is no question of its need. It Avould be as proper to mak the Reform School for Boys at Plain field a part of the state prison at Michigan City as it is to combine tht school for girls Avith the Women's prison.

The state is already com mitted to the separation by a bil passed three years ago. But the legislature failed to carry out what it recognised as the proper policy Further, there should be an immediate and. absolute stop to sending homeless girls that are innocent ot all misdemeanor to the Girls' industrial school, there to be brought up in association Avith vicious and degenerate girls. The state board is not at all too severe Avhen it characterizes this practice as a disgrace to the state. A BANK AT WOODBURN.
