A few weeks ago the young editors of the Cornell Daily Sun, published by the students of Cornell University, hatched up a fast one, which although not strictly ethical, has caused considerable comment and not a little laughter. They conceived the idea of "honoring" the memory of one Hugo N. Frye, described as the unsung founder of the Republican party in New York state. luvitations were sent to Vice-President Curtis, Sec- , retary of Labor Davis to attend the event and asking them if they would be kind enough to send the , college editors a message relative , to Mr. Frye's noble work, to be read at the dinner. According to the tale from tlie , college editors, tl)e name “Hugo N. , Frye" was invented out of the campus slang term of "you go and fry.” However, Vice-President' Curtis, and Secretary Davis came through with congratulatory mess-' ages and now the country is giving them the laugh. Curtis wired ' the editors, "I read with pleasure your intention to give a dinner honoring the sesquicential of the memory of Hugo N. Frye, pioneer Republican of Elmira. 1 am sorry indeed my official duties prevent me from attending the dinner. I congratulate the Republicans on paying this respect to the memory of Hugo N. Frye and wish you a most successful occasion.” Secretary Davis fell a little harder and took the bait by saying. “It is a pleasure to testify to the car.er of that sturdy patriot who first planted the ideals of our party in this region of the country. If Frye were living today he would be the first to rejoice in evidence everywhere present thjtt our government is still in the hands of the people." The college faculty was shocked

♦ I’ TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ (U.® ♦ ! Belfast.—Two kegs of butter, believed to be several hundred j years old, were discovered in I good state of preservation by workmen cutting turf on the I Carrickroosey Hill in the Ini nishowen Peninsula. I and the dope is that they will refuse to let the editors but that probably will not keep Curtis and Davis from saying, "you go and fry.” When hard times come there are always some people as experience has shown, who, though their incomes have been in no way affected. and are in no danger of being affected, immedltaely quit paying their bills —or at least postpone their payment. Such folk are quite as well able to meet their obligations as they were tn the ftushiest of times. Perhaps they are better able, for while their incomes have suffered no impairment, the price of commodities may have fallen. There is no justification for such policy. Its only effect is to make hard times still harder and to delay the return of more prosperous conditions. And so the whole community suffers, including those who, without any reason, suspend payment of their bills. We are not thinking of those who get caught, without fault of their own, and who themselves are in hard case, without employment, etc., but only of those who have as much money as ever, and are living as comfortably and as free from care as in the best of times. These can not in good morals plead hard times as a reason for not meeting their obligtaions, for times are not hard with them. It is a mistake, too, for i people, except under the pressure of necessity, or in rsepoase to the dictates of a wise prudence, severely to reduce their expenditures, i They can greatly help toward bus- , iness recovery, simply by continuing to live normal lives. If their 1 incomes have not been reduced > they can afford as much when ’ times are not good as when they were. There are many people who can live normally even in abnormal tints. Why they should not do so we can not see. Panic conditions are always hightened by the withdrawal from the commodity market : of those who do not need to withdraw. There are, of course, many people who are forced to retrench, often severely.—lndianapolis News. The Tribune reporter in Chicago was killed yesterday by a gaug- ' ster. Shot from the back, he met ' death while covering the crime stories in the big city. No doubt the fighting blood of the Tribune will reach blood heat and already rewards of $30,000 for the killer have been offered. We believe if all the papers in Chicago united in the man-hunt that the gangster could be brought to trial, but who

It’s the only city where industrial growth does not have an effect, the thousands going there to see the movie actors and beauties of the western city. Last week Governor Leslie told the people of Indiana that the state was in good condition, had plenty of money and that the tax rate was the lowest ever. Good thing he macle the speech last week. News has come from the capital that the state rate for next year may be increased to 68 cents on the hundred dollars. Cat your weeds, is the order issued by the city health department. Weeds on vacant lots should be cut before June 20, or the city street department will do it for you and charge property owners up with the cost. There is no excuse for letting the weeds grow.

Apply when the range is slightly warm. Then palish with a rough cloth. This also prevents rust. Gold Fish (f gold fish become ill, the probability is that they have been over fed or not kept clean.

Forty attended the 25th wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Lachot. Frank Kern and family move to Fort Wayne. INCOME TAX IS CHIEF PLANK OF DEMOCRATS (CONT(NUED FROM PAGE ONE) Democratic document. Registration of voters, which also was discussed by the G. O. P. was adopted by the Democrats a?

follows: "We favor legislation providing for the personal registration of voters, to the end that the sanctity of the ballot may be preserved.” The state highway commission was condemned and recommendation made for traffic speed limit laws, in the following plank: “We pledge the party to extend and improve the state highway system, not as a corrupt political machine or football of politics, but so as to make it more useful and more efficiently administered, and , to protect the highways by regulating the traffic thereon.” The last legislature was condemned for creating the governor's emergency fund and for appropriating a sum for maintenance of the governor's mansion. “We denounce the illegal and unwarranted action of the last legislature in appropriating the additional sum of SIO,OOO for the maintenance of the governor's home and household at a time when our industrial workers are unemployed by thousands, and our farmers are threatened by bankruptcy. "We further charge that it is unwise to place in the hands of any governor the unprecedented sum of $200,000 without check or control.” Secretary of State Otto G. Fifield was attacked in the following plank: “We charge that the present secretary of state has used the vast power of this important office for his political profit, and that he has used the state police force to build up a machine for his political advancement, neglecting its proper purpose of protecting life and property.” The platform includes a recommendation for “a just and equitable old age pension system worked out with the purpose, both of safeguarding the best interests of the aged poor, and reducing the burden which the present extravagant and inhuman methods of caring for them casts upon the public.” A flood relief program for Indiana was favored and "recommendation made for a hearty and vigorous support to the WabashMaumee Valley Improvement Association, that lias been doing such splendid work to get this matter before congress for action.” The platform was unstinted in praise of organized labor and condemnation of "yellow dog” contracts. It recommended that the use of the writ of injunction in labor disputes should be defined by statute, and the right of trial by jury of those charged with indirect contempt, should be safeguarded by law. The pending tariff bill was “condemned as the greatest outrage sought to be perpetrated on a suffering. tax burdened people in the history of the nation.” Considerable space was devoted to agriculture, and the Republican leaders were condemned for “their failure to bring the immediate farmrelief promised two years ago and their slowness in developing a plan to bring agriculture under the same protection afforded industry for many years. “We reaffirm our belief that the government can take care of the exportable surplus crops without loss, by distributing the cost to the producers, which would curtail over-production and place agriculture on an equality with industry," tiie platform reads. Republicans were charged with 1 having brought about a laxness in law enforcement that has resulted in an increased amount of crime. “We charge that republican politicians hi office have exercised privilege and favoritism to the point where it has begotten crime,” the document says. “The present crime wave came while republican administrations were in full control of ah the law enforcement ! agencies. Following corruption in high places, it has spread like con-

tagion throughout the nation, and with the examples at Washington and Indianapolis before them, the common criminals feel sate.”
