The political and literary future of the nation Is safe. Just as we thought, experts have discovered that the dove on the new dollar is an eagle and all the nice things about it representing peace will have to be resaid. Well any way we won’t have to worry about an ice crop if this zero weather hangs on a day or two. The Bellmont park lake is producing eight inch blocks right now and the river is about ready for an old fashioned harvest The metropolitan newspapers in efforts to beat their competitors in news service were kept busy for two or three days announcing the death of Pope Benedict and then correcting their statements. .Such news service tends to make the public lose faith in the accuracy of newspapers. Mayor Lew Shank says Beveridge will get three votes to New’s one in Indianapolis. New’s friends of course say that’s bunk but that's what they said about Shank all last summer and he kept on making wild claims and then came the primary and the election and he made good. Little wonder that Senator New is worried and is leaving nothing undone to block the game of Shank and Beveridge. Among those being prominently mentioned for democratic candidate for United States senator from Indiana are Ex-Vicepresident Thomas R. Marshall, Ex-Governor Samuel M. Ralston, Frank Dailey, Fred Van-

Nuys, Albert Stump and others of more or less fame. Indications are that the nominee will wiu next November and that several will be ambitious for the honor. Persistent rumors are that Albert Vestal of this district will have opposition in his own party for the congressional nomination. Muncie, Anderson and Winchester each have prospective candidates but so far there have been no official announcements. Claims are made that a part of the Beveridge program is to have a candidate for congress in each district to help his organization, since the thirteen representatives now serving agreed in a Washington meeting recently to support New. Developments are expected to come rather continuously from this time on. Beveridge is a sly old actor who I recognizes that a star should appear [on the stage at just the right moment. | It is rumored in a manner almost of- | iicial that he will make his announcement as a candidate for senator the last week of February. In the mean- ' time he has a force of assistants getting up parades in various cities and arranging the scenery just right ■ lor the big act. All this tends to worry his opponents and Senator New takes it seriously enough that he is absent from Washington with leave and is trying it take up as much space on the Indiana stage as possible. The plot thickens and the interest. increases. The late Senator Penrose was a man of many mysteries. Perhaps that was the secret of his political success. He kept his mouth shut and he always had the cash to meet an emergency! However even his relatives and friends were surprised after his death to find $226,100 in cash in a safety deposit box in Washington and no one has yet been able to figure just why he should have that I much real money lying around loose like that and not earning even six percent, but Penrose had a purpose and perhaps found it handy to have a snug sum of cash where he could put his hands on it and without writing a tell tale check. The death of Pope Benedict XV removes as the head of the Roman Catholic church a man who loved his fellow man, who deplored war and who lent his influence to end the terrible world conflict. Though he has served as the supreme head of bis , church but eight years, they have , been the most troublesome of the century, a test which the great leader has bore to his advantage. He deplored war, he taught the gospel of the Savior, he abhored the fact that millions of men were being drawn into the struggle and uselessly slaughti ered and he made numerous efforts • to secure a truce and a cessation. Never robust, there is perhaps little doubt that the strain -of the eight years aided in breaking his body and
