tiie^ uk \d the tk \NSCR1PT
An illuminating object lesson of the
wide circulation and extensive reading
of The Norran Transcript was given
in the examination of prospective ju-
>ors in the January case. When asked
if they had read anything about it, and
where, the answer invariably was: "In
the Transcript." Four out of five gave
this answer, and the other fifth did
not take any paper at all.
Thus, in this day and age of the'
Dail and Weefly, the reading public
gets much ot it;; opinions from articles
in the newspapers, and it behooves
newspapers to be therefore very care-'
fid and accurate in 11 -ir statements.
That is what the Trans cript endeavors
to do nt all times, and that is the rea-;
son why it is so widely circulated and
its statements carry weight and in-
fluence.

And now comes the news that our
old friend, the lion. Thos. Taggart,

diana by Gov. i lston of that state,
to take the plai- of Senatoi Shively,
recently deceased. Gov. Ralston evi-
dently believes that the Hon. Thomas
represents the Democracy of Indiana
in all and every respect, and the gov-
ernor probably knows. Mr. Taggart .

try and in Indiana as on. of the most
corrupt politicians of modern times.

Mr. Editor:
In your paper of recent issue we:
noticed an article in civic committee '
items calling attention to some bag-
worm infested trees across the street!
east from the Christian church. We
have not examined the trees but think
that a mistake has been made as to
location for the reason that on inves-|
ligation we have learned that such
lots and trees are in the eustory and
care of Rev. Wickizer who is charged j
with the responsibility of keepiiifr the;
lots and trees are in the custody and
neat and tidy, and we feel quite sure
that if the trees were on such propei
ty even had a bag worm, so brave as
to weave onto thevtwigs Hs cocoon
it would have been most ru/lesslv de-
stroyed by the Rev. or his irders be-
fore its brood of young coulj ever
hatch. ' FAIR PLAY.
