DOES ANY ONE remember a week end when the thermometer didn't take a tumble? HAYING PREVIOUSLY determined to suspend sentence, Judge Pritchard "threw the keys away’’ when he sentenced those five boys to 100 days on the penal farm. HAVING SET THE TIME LIMITS far enough ahead to avoid all inconvenience, the county commissioners are growing real severe about the completion of those road contracts. NOW that the telephone companies have been “benevolently mergered” we can expect Improved service—like we received following the gas company and street car company mergers. THE SUSPENSE in which Mark Storen Is holding the public and the Indicted coal men would not be so ridiculous If any of them expected to run away, even were their names made public. TWO NEWSPAPERS at Winchester that have supported the republican party since the early seventies have been consolidated. We knew something would happen to them If they kept it up. DELAY in granting a bond issue for the Improvement of the Manual Training school cost the school city of Indianapolis $200,000 owing to the Increases in the cost of building. That Is as mdch as the state tax board ever will save the state. OF ONE GANG of four auto thieves, only one got a suspended sentence from Judge Collins. The rest are no doubt looking forward to the return of Gov. Goodrich for the exercise of the pardon or parole the trial court will recommend on application. Fooling Voters? We sometimes wonder if the republican leaders In this county really believe that the average voter is of such low mentality that he can be fooled, repeatedly, and at random by the pretenses that are made almost daily for no other purpose than to deceive him. For example: Judge Collins sentences men to prison for , a period on one charge and a period on another, the combination of which would be a severe sentence. Having attracted attention to the severity of the sentences; he enters Judgment so that the sentences run concurrently and the maximum is the maximum of only one. Judge Pritchard fines five boys $1 each and sentences them to the state farm for 100 days. Then he suspends the days on payment of the fine and the sum of the “severe judgment” is $1 and costs. Mayor Jewett writes a letter to Judge Pritchard telling how he will suspend the poolroom license of any one who Is not worthy to hold It goes out to his hog farm and overlooks the fact that the police found a lot of negroes in Rufe Page s poolroom at 3 a. m. when the law requires that it be closed at midnight. The county commissioners meet with a lot of road contractors, find out when they want to complete road contracts, set time limits to suit the contractors and then announce their Intention of assessing penalties if such contracts are not completed* within such limits. The board of safety appoints a committee to inspect the city market and make recommendation as to how it can be improved. Then, because It can not carry out a recommendation that the market be rebuilt at a cost of $300,000 it promptly forgets all the recommendations that could be compiled with at no expense. The state tax board announces that It has no desire to usurp the functions of the school board, but if the school board doesn't borrow from next year’s tuition fund to pay the teachers more money this year it Intends to make it plain to the teachers that It ought to do so. Gen. Leonard Wood comes here as the head of the military department to inspect Ft. Benjamin Harrison and delivers a sixteen-page address to the civilian Columbia club in the afternoon and a thirty-two-page address to the nonpartisan Masonic meeting in the evening. Gov. Goodrich pledges a second special session of the legislature In order to get the suffrage amendment ratified and run no risks of impeachment, then fails to call the session and scurries to Florida for the same reasons. Yerily, all is not what it appears to be in Marion county.

Movies and Life Some day some •wise old man, with chin whiskers and half the alphabet after his name, will write about ten volumes of psychological, philosophical stuff about the scientific and bachelor-degreed sharp to see that, beyond the shadow of a doubt, the movies have had and are having a beneficent influence upon American life. That sounds perhaps somewhat tike a broad statement, but It is the truth. The movies may give exaggerated Ideas about some things—the wild, temptestuous life of the cowboy, for instance, or the wiles of tho virulent vampire—but, all these things aside, the movies have done and are doing Immensely more good than they are doing harm. Let’s look into the matter for Just a moment or two. The movies, we And, do their most good among families. Husbands Who never used to take their wives anywhere in the days before screen entertainment,, now take Friend "Wife regularly once a week or more to the neighborhood playhouse. Parents who formerly had very little In common with their children now enjoy the pictures as much as their youngsters and frequently take the children to the theater with them. Grandmothers, who used to think their days were past, vie with their grandchildren in their admiration for the leading stars. Never has there been anything which gave families such wholesome, pleasant entertainment and which has brought families such a delightful common interest. And ir that Isn't having a mighty beneflcient influence upon American life, what is? i ' A Value of Virtue An English judge has placed a value on virtue. A husband, he decided, has a right to compensatory damages In money against a man who Is responsible for wrecking his home. But, in order to claim such damages, the husband himself must be blameless. It Is a good doctrine. It establishes a single code of morals in divorce actions. It says that men must be held to the same strict definition of decency to which they hold women, and requires them to enter court with "clean hands.” But, curiously enough, this English Judge—Justice McCardie—has gone a long way to place women on an equality with men in the basic law on divorce. And the English law says that a wife cannot bring a similar action against a woman who has lured her husband to misconduct or has submitted to his advances. The wife, It seems, has no such right of control or claim to a husband’s services as is possessed by a husband with regard to the wife. Nor io she, by law, supposed to have the power of consent; husband’s damages are based on "trespass.” It takes a long time to break down the barriers which man has erected for his own indulgence. The law yields slowly to the theory that a husband owes as much fidelity to a wife as a wife to her husband. But It will finally^yield. More Centralization Henry Roberts, who formerly had charge of the state’s free employment bureaus, used to operate them on an appropriation of $9,000 a year, and he says the records will show more work done then than now when Gov. Goodrich is threatening to abolish the service unless the city of Indianapolis contributes something to the $38,000 appropriation which appears to have been exhausted in the first six months of the fiscal year. Thus do the people of Indiana have another illustration of the benefits of "centralization” as it is practiced by the Goodrich gang.

WOOD MUST WIN IN PRIMARY OR LOSE IN INDIANA Watson Crowd Expects to Control State Convention and Get Delegates. IVTCRAY OUTRUNS RIVALS The struggle between the two wellorganized machines in the republican party for the national delegates to tbe Chicago convention has reached proportions that make It necessary for the political bosses to strain their lungs In shouting for their candidates and leave very little to be done by the rank and file of the voters. Either the crowd that is supporting Leonard Wood for the presidency will win in Indiana at the primaries or the Indiana delegation will be controlled by the supporters of James E. Watson and will be carried to the convention in the vest pocket of the old “standpat” bosses In tbe republican ranks. Wood’s candidacy represents the de-slres-of that part of the Indiana bosses who are unwilling to allow the Watson crowd of bosses to control the state delegation. It has never been a personal boom for Leonard Wood. It bRs been, and now is, the vehicle on which the bosses who were left out In the wet when the campaign plans were made last spring hope to assert themselves. It now hag the whole-souled support and Is managed by the political opponents of Senator Watson, Including the Indianapolis News. The one hope of the antl-Wntson crowd In the state Is that Wood will receive a majority of the votes cast at the May primary. The hope Is almost an Impossibility, but It Is being led with all the vigor that can be Injected In It, and It is being accelerated by a tremendous amount of money, expended in tbe way of organization and advertising. Watson's supporters expect to defeat Wood through the Injection Into the primary of enough candidates to make It impossible for Wood to obtain a majority vote. Gov. Lowden of Illinois, Senator Harding of Ohio and Hiram Johnson of California are tbe tools by which Wood Is expected to be defeated. These three men will receive the support of the Watson crowd and as many votes as they will naturally Rttract to themselves In the state. The total of the three will be sufficient to prevent Wood from obtaining a majority of the votes oast In the primary. Asa result, the Indiana delegation will not be pledged to anyone when It goes to Chicago. CONVENTION TO SETTLE INDIANA PREFERENCE. The selection of tbe Chicago delegation will t * left to the republican state convention and tbe position of the delegation In the national convention will be the reflection of the political allegiance of the delegates thesjselves. * Watson's supporters will control the state convention and consequently the state delegation to the Chicago convention. It will be composed of men who will take the orders of the Watson bosses. They may stand first for Senator Harding. They may divide between Senator Harding and Gov. Lowden, bnt when the time comes to- nominate they can be depended on vo rote for tlje man whom the Watson supporters wish to be nominated. In all probabilities that nan will bs Senator James E. Watson. This plan to support Indian's senator for the nomination for provident was conceived early last spring and has been carefully carried out since. There has been only one hitch In It. That hitch was the fear that Wilt Hays, national chairman, wonld take advantage of the Juggling to lino up a considerable number of tbe delegates for himself. As errtdence accumulated that H®ya was doing just that, the chairman's popularity began to wane. Eventually there ware open attacks on him. When these attacks were resented It was made to appear that they were originated by the Wood supporters. Then Wood managers expressed their satisfaction with Hay*. They are now In n .position where they can not be heard to object If 8t finally developes that tbo convention, originally

framed to stampede for Watson, should suddenly stampede to Hays. And If th'e Watson crowd can not put. Watson over there Is nothing that will suit them better, than to have Hays nominated. The result of all this manipulation is that the republican voters of Indiana are going to have mighty little luck In attempting to name their* choice for the nomination for president. They can vote for Wood with the full knowledge that Wood will not capture the delegation in the primary. They can vote for Lowden, Harding or Johnson with the knowledge that none of the three will be presented to the convention as the state’s choice. No matter how they cast their ballots they must realize that the Indiana delegation to Chicago will never represent the sentiment of Indiana voters. The two groups of bosses In the state “have taken care that the control of tbe delegation shall not fade from their hands, as usual. McCRAY EAR AHEAD OF OTHER CONTENDERS. Unless all politician dope Is upset in Indiana between now and the primaries, Warren T. McCray will be the republican nominee for governor. There aro no political leaders of any consequence in the republican ranks wiJllng to concede that the lead which McCray now has over his contenders can be overcome. Consequently, the McCray campaign has become simply a matter of keeping the candidate before the public and perfecting what is conceded to be the best political organization that has been formed for any candidate this year. McCray has made no errors in strategy so far in his campaign. He has kept a course that Las prevented him from becoming known as the candidate of either the Watson or the Goodrich factions of the party and his managers have gathered support from both camps. When the fight against the domination of James P. Goodrich was at its height McCray gave out a statement In which he gently eased himself over the fence that marked division between Goodrich and antl-Goodrlch forces and attempted to create the Impression that he ’was unfavorable to the present tax law. McCray, however, did not denounce the tax law. He merely expressed In polite words a sentiment that perhaps the tax law was not all that It should be. The position assumed by McCray was not obnoxious to the Goodrich element which has begun to doubt its own faith In the tax law. It was not entirely pleasing to the antl-Goodrlch element which expected McCray to speak louder, but It was better than nothing and It gave the antl-Goodrlch people hope that perhaps later McCray would be more emphatic. At any rate, both tho Goodrich and the antl-Goodrlch factions looked upon McCray as the best they could get, and ever since that time there has been a steady stream toward McCray, even In spite of tho Jbreats made by agents of the Indianapolis News that the paper would not support him in event of his nomination. There U a growing sentiment among the politicians In the republican party that they must take McCray, not particularly because they want him, but because ho is the only candidate to whom they can all turn. They realize that J. W. Fesler will not do for two reasons. In the first place, ho Is not making any headway with the voters, and In the second place he ts too thoroughly under tho domination of the News and the crowd that flocks with It. Edward Toner la still regarded as the Impossible. Ills Indorsement of Goodrich as tho ‘'greatest war governor" has been the great stumbling block over which his candidacy can not be boosted. He probably will run a poor third In the race, even with the assistance of the versatile Carl Mote, who has given up his announced plans of moving to Washington with Gov. Goodrich and Is now wondering whether he can retain Ida meal ticket in connection with th. public service commission. Marshal Foch Denies He’s Enemy of League WASHINGTON, March 13 Marsha!

GENERAL WOOD DEPENDS TENETS OF THE PARTY HE OPPOSES

Gen. Wood’s Indianapolis speech Is remarkable for the candor with which it subscribes to the democratic doctrines of today, and In a measure helps to explain the remarkable sympathy of the republican press with all public utterance that advocates a “return to the democracy of years gone by.” If It represents the sentiments of the next candidate of the republican party for president it may be taken as excellent evidence of the hope of republicans that the democrats may be Induced to nominate a reactionary. For Wood apparently envies the position of the demo - cratic party as attained under President Wilson and would run for office on the democratic platform, disguised under the name of progressive republicanism. Referring to the part of our soldiers under a democratic administration in tho world’s war, Mr. Wood says: "They made up in Initiative for lack of training, they went over the top again and again with a purpose single to victory, and they gained their objective. They did a fine and splendid piece of work and we are all very grateful to them.” / So much for the war. Gen. Wood admits that a democratic administration enabled the army to accomplish "Its objective.” “Wo ore, I think, all anxious to have the nation return to a peace basis, and to have our affairs swing back to normal channels. There Is considerable to be done and we can do It very easily If we only devote ourselves to the work Immediately at band,” says Gen. Wood. Is this any different doctrine from that which President Wilson and the democratic party has been preaching ever since the peace treaty was presented to congress? Is there any one other than the republicans In congress preventing this nation from swinging “back to normal channels?” If we can do this “very easily If we only devote ourselves to the work Immediately et hand,” why doesn’t the republican congress devote Itself to this work and accomplish It? “Wo want to build up a good merchant marine ns one of the means of distributing our commerce and building up our trade. You also need It behind your navy for the purpose of training seaman In times of peace to be prepared for war," says the general. Can any one tell how this sentiment Is to be reconciled with the republican-led fight against the development of a merchant marine by the sale of shipping board tonnage to private corporations? —— • “I think we must not be afraid of encouraging good business; never mind how big It Is. There Is a curiously false doctrine drifting about that all big business Is bad business. The world Is going to organize both In capital and labor, and In business, snd no business Is too big to merit encouragement If It Is a business whb-h la helpful to tbe people, and no business 1* jsj small to merit condemnation and coiWol If It Is a bad business. It Is not the size of the business that counts, It Is the character of It.” How, general are yon going to reconcile this statement with the criticisms that your fellow republicans are heaping on the Wilson administration for Its refusal to prosecute big business concerns merely bemuse they are big? ——- • "We wnnt to extend our good business and In order to do that one of the most powerful Influences will be to spread the war debt over a much larger period of years. The excess profit tax and the other war taxes have rather a stranglehold on the throat of business and too many Mg estates are becoming slacker estate*.” Are we to understand then, general, that you approve of the proposal of William Gibbs McAdoo, a democrat, that the war debt be spread over a period of years, and ure not in accord with Representative .Mondell, republican floor leader. In his assertion that such a course means a panic?

“I do hopo we shall approve the league of nations, with reservations which will Americanize it, and that we shall be able to save the machinery which will enable tho people to get around a table and talk things over before we begin to fight.” Wherein does this position differ with that of President Wilson, who has expressed his willingness to a**'"” cept treaty reservations that do not nullify the league of nations covenant that provides the “machinery which will enable the people to get around a table and talk things over? “We have got to have a bigger navy, just as England has, to keep our sea routes open for food. Tho moment wo change our policies in that way we lose the great civilizing influence of America.” Has not Secretary Daniels, a democratic cabinet officer, said tho same thing, and Is not his policy opposed with might nndj main by the republican leaders or the house and senate? “We can have a sound national department of public health, and I hope eventually with a medical man at the head of it as a member of the cabinet. It does not make any difference who does that. It Is a thing that Is bound to be done.” Did not President Wilson openly advocate Just such p department? Does not the creation of it depend upon a republican congress which has opposed It wholly because It was first suggested by Wilson? “We have got to stand for the rights of property, the rights of the Individual, and we have got to Impress upon all people that the only way to succeed Is to work, and In order for labor to work contentedly you have got to give a reasonable and decent wage, so that labor can save something for a stormy day, can marry, raise a family, and give their oMldren a reasonable opportunity In life.” Are we then, general, to understand that you have no sympathy with the propaganda that your republican friends are circulating among capitalists to the effect that the democrats are responsible for the higher wages that are paid labor all over the Ulnted States? If we are to take you at your word, Oen. Wood, you agree with the democratic party: 1. That the peace treaty should be ratified at once. 2. That a merchant marine should be encouraged in every possible way. 8. That business should not be assailed because It Is big, but. should be regulated In such a way as to differentiate between big business and bad business. 3. That the war debt should be spread over a period of years rather than met by Immediate overtaxation. 4. That tbe league of nations covenant must be preserved in order to provide the machinery for compelling a world's peace. 5 That we must maintain a navy sufficient to keep the sea routes open for food. fl. That we should have a department of public health with a cabinet representative. 7. That Industrial content can only be obtained by the maintenance of wages at a “decent and reasonable” level. Why, then, Gen. Wood, are you posing as a republican, seeking support as a candidate for tho presidency of a party that Is opposed to nil these thing* which you deem right and proper? Says Women Do Not Want Army President DETROIT, March IS —Nomination v nf Gen. Wood or any other military mab will spell defeat for the rcpubllcana provided the democrats nominate a nonmllltary candidate, said Mrs. Fletcher Pobyns, prominent Illinois political flgnre. who Is here. "No military man will receive the support of women for the presidency." she said.

RISK PRESENTS NOVEL PLAN FOR PRIMARY FIGHT ✓ —— Wants Committee to Present Records and Platforms of Candidates. COMPLIMENTS SALLEE A novel proposal to the effect that candidates for office should be required by their party committee to submit thetr party and official records, together with a statement of their platforms, to tha voters prior to the primaries, has been made to A. C. Sallee, chairman of the democratic committee, by James K. Risk, democratic candidate for the nomination for governor. Mr. Risk proposes that tho state committee “frankly state to the voters the political experiences and the general acquaintance throughout the state of the candidates and should have each member of the democratic state committee Inform the county chairman In his district of the attitude of the candidates on all. questions and to ask that every democratic paper In the district give to the people tho Information the state committee has been able to obtain.” Mr. Sallee has referred the proposition, which was embodied In a letter to him from Mr. Risk to tbe state committee, and has sent Mr. Risk a reply, reading as follows: “I have carefully read your very Interesting letter of the Bth Inst., setting forth your views as to the duties of the democratic state central committee In the primary, and you may rest assured that I shall take pleasure In presenting the same for attention at the next meeting of the commltttee. “The state central committee has already taken a determined stand for fair play and a square deal for every aspirant who enters the primary. I consider It the duty of the state committee to elect, and not select, the candidates, and we have religiously refrained from taking any* active part other than to urge upon and Insist that the county organizations bring out the very cleanest and strongest men possible for precinct committeemen, delegates to the state convention, congressional and county candidates, etc. "I sincerely hope that you may find It convenient to visit state headquarters occasionally. All the democratic aspirants for state office have been In, and I am sure you will find a most hearty welcome awaiting you. We need the advice and counsel of men of experience In directing the affairs of our party and, of course, I am going to feel free to call upon you at all times.” In presenting bis proposal to Mr. Bailee, Mr. Risk says: “I thick the committee, through Us chairman, should request every candidate filing petitions to state clearly his opinions on questions affecting state government, and what he expects to do in case he Is nominated and elected. BAYS CANDIDATES BHOILD PKODIXE THEIR RECORDS. "I think a candidate, If he has served the state In any* capacity as an official, should produce his record. It he has served as a member of the legislature or the state senate he should be able to point to the legislation that he has assisted In placing on the statute books or attempted to have placed on the statute books and, also, to furnish Information as to the legislation that he has opposed. “If the candidate has served In any other official capacity In the state he should call attention to his position In the management of state affairs. If the candidate has never held public office he should stats, at least, what his attitude has been on the Important questions that have been under consideration. In order that the people may know exactly what his attitude Is on all questions. “The democratic state committee should Insist that every candidate should have, so far as the democratic state committee and the county organizations are concerned, a square deal; that neither tbe state chairman, district chairman, county chairman, or the precinct committee take sides In the nomination, except when determined by the state committee, that the official record of a can-

didate would not warrant the candidate's indorsement. “I think the duty of the democratic state committee Is to call the people's attention to the candidacy of any man. If the candidate has not had a record of honest, square dealing, but If the candidate stands for honesty. Integrity and efficiency, and his record proves It, the voters should have the information—, and It should be the duty of every democratic editor to say to his patrons, through his editorial columns, here are the candidates for the office of governor, or for any other office In the coming primary. Here are their records. It Is up to the voter to decide which one of these men should be nominated. • “Neither the democratic- state committee or any of its members should recommend men for political preferent who do not stand for the highest Integrity. “The man who Is willing to recommend a man for political preferment that does not stand for the highest Ideals in government, Is doing his government and his party a great injustice, and I believe when the democratic state committee and those who occupy high positions in the councils of the party make a determined stand for fair play and a square deal for every aspirant who enters a primary, and Insists that the state committee, rarest through its local county organizations, pledge to every candidate not onlw'falr treatment in the campaign, but an honest count of every vote voteWl you will find an added Interest In the democratic party. Certainly the democratic party in Indiana can not boast of its achievements, In the State of Indiana, since 1892. QFOTES BOMB HISTORY OF DEMOCRATIC PARTY. “The only victory won by the party ■was a partial victory in 1908, and I think that victory was largely due to the people being aroused as to the policy of the machine.. The fact that a candidate was nominated for governor In 1908, was not a part of the machine, and the awakened political Indifference in the state, and the largest democratic vote ever polled for governor In Indiana, was polled In 1908, Is proof sufficient. The 1910 and 1912 elections were democratic, because of the progressive movement In the republican party. “In 1910 Senator Beveridge, In the republican state convention, told the leaders of his party and the convention where the republican party was wrong and the democratic party had the advantage of the early split In the republican party In the year 1910. "In 1912 the democratic party came Into full pewer in the state of Indiana on account of the real division in the republican uarty. While our party had all of the offices In the state, In the congress and In the senate, and yet our candidate for governor received 72,000 votes less than Mr. Marshall had received in 1908. Mr. /Wilson received 58.000 less votes for president than Mr. Bryan had received In 1908. “In 191> President Wilson addressed a large group of democrats In Indianapolis, Including the members of the Indiana legislatu.-e. He pointed out to the democrats in Indiana the great independent group of voters outside of both political parties who hold the balance ot power, and pleaded with the democratiag of Indiana, and those In charge of lib administration of government, to perform their official acts in the Interest of all the people, to the end that this independent and progressive vote would be attached to the democratic party. “Our leader* were not crying out against crime and debauchery in our municipalities, but In many Instances the public had reason to believe they were giving aid and comfort to the law violators and. In the election of 1916, onr party, in the state of Indiana, was driven from power. 6EES OPPORTUNITY FOR COMMITTEE. “The democratic state committee has within Its power the opportunity of establishing Itself Into the confidence of the voters by making pre-primary and pre-election pledges that It will stand for a square deal; that It invites the progressive voter to enter the democratic party, and It can poin| with pride to tha record of Woodrow Wilson’s administration, In the enactment of more remedial legislation In the first three years of it? existence than was written into law In fifty years by the republican party.
