Logan Payne & Cos. Advertising Office* (N ew York, Boston. Payne, Bums A Smith, Inc. —“THIS IS THE YEAR”— JAKE DUNN and Kirby Risk may now fight it out without interfering with any one's pleasures. MUNCIE and Evansville have been cleaned up in federal court. W hen will Indianapolis take the limelight? GOV. GOODRICH will know when to call that special session as soon as he learns when Thomas Taggart will leave Indiana for California. JESSE ESCHBACH tnight please a lot of republicans by resigning from the state board of accounts ostensibly to preside over the special session. PRESIDENT WILSON has granted an interview to the press. Republican editors will immediately give extra space to another rumor about how sick he is. ... ANYHOW, thosa Missouri delegates now insist that they have returned that apiece, so Mr. Lowden will have a nest egg for another campaign. • > k SENATOR HARDING, vre are advised by republicans, has a well-de-fined sense of humor. He will need it before the end of the senatorial^ ♦ conducted campaign. THE REPUBLICANS, of Indiana are willing to concede that W ood is a fine gentleman It is the wealth of his backers for the presidency that reconciles them to his defeat at Chicago. x Alluring Possibilities When one can go into one’s back yard each morning and dig up ice sufficient for the day’s demands, why should there be worry and scurry over a possible ice famine in some parts of the state. For from Mt. Carmel, 111., comes word that “with the thermometer 88 degrees in the shade workmen excavating at the old Black Diamond colliery’’ ran into a vein of Ice buried at least thirty years. This indeed is cheering news. What difference if the ice is at least thirty years old? 1 Were it eggs, for example, 'twould be a different story; but ice of that age would bear a certain distinction that would not be unpleasant. To be sure there might be certain complications, due to mining laws. Would Smith be permitted to follow his ice vein under the front or back yard of Jones, where Jones was diligently applying himself to the task of excavating his daily supply? Would there be such a thing as claim Jumpers and a revival of the law of the gun. from the days of the golden west and the movie screens? To be sure none as yet has been discovered here, but if In the old Black Diamond colliery, why not here? The possibilities are quite alluring, especially since local ice dealers have again agreed to let Stanley Wyckoff raise ice prices for them.

Repudiating Platforms v The particular method by which the old guard- of the republican party expects to atone for the atrocious parody of a political platform adopted at Chicago after preparation under the direction of James Eli Watson has been disclosed by Editor Lockwood of £he Muncle Press. Witness the following from such an authoritative source: While party utterances expressed in platforms have a kind of importance aa indicating the trend of thought among the leaders who may be presumed to represent the people, they are actuallv of less importance than the nominations of the ihen to the'offices that will have to do with carrying out these policies. ' A platform never should be construed too literally. Tt is always a composite and events may so shape themselves as to warrant the party’s making concessions here and there in spite of party declarations. These then. If they come, or the literal 1 accomplishment of the things set out in the platforms, must be brought about by the leaders chosen for the purpose. It should, of course, be recognized that this naive evasion of the stupidity of the republican national platform was intended to apply to the national platfbrm only by its writer. But, if “a platform never should be construed too literally,** "have we any assurance that the republican state platform will be construed literally if the republicans are permitted to construe it when the next legislature meets? Concretely, are the declarations of the republican platform for the amendment of the tax law to be construed literally or not? Did the pledge of the republican state convention for the amendment of the Goodrich tax law mean anything or did it merely "have a kind or importance as indicating the trend of thought among leaders?” Another Shortage There have been shortages announced in various lines—shortages in coal cars, shortages in sugar, etc., but from Belleville, Kas., comes a peculiarly pathetic story of a shortage of prisoners In the county Jail. It is worse than .a shortage; in fact, it is a complete famine—not a single bird in the gilded cage. It seems that the jail had been facing a shortage for some weeks, and now its last remaining occupant has been removed to the protecting walls of the state prison The story ts weak in details —it does not state whether, when there are prisoners, the jailer feeds the “jailees” at so much per; whether their m :1s are brought in to them, or whether they sort of feed en famllle with the jailer. It does not state whether the inhabitants of and vlsitot sto the county are of an especially desirable kind, or whether the jail Is of an especially undesirable type. But it would seem that some public-spirited citizen, or at least some wandering-footed follower of the broad highway should, at least during this trying period, lend his sanction to the jail by his presence. The Special Session The question of a special session of the legislature Is not particularly pleasing to republican politicians who have concluded first that a special session is necessary, second that it Is undesirable, and third, that it will be less desirable later on than now. In other words the republican state administration ts In the position j of a small boy with a bad tooth —torn between fear of the dentist’s chair and fear that after much suffering with the toothache it will eventually be i.ecessary to visit'the dentist. , The situation is one of Gov. Goodrich’s own making. He called one special session and with the assistance of some misguided women In Indiana succeeded In limiting that session to the ratifies- 1 tion of suffrage. His fear of a prolonged session of the legislature now*, is probably no less than it was then. Nor will it grow less as the election approaches. The only thing that makes a special session of the legislature less fearful for the republican party now than it was months ago when the governor delayed it la-the fact that the people have learned that Gov. Goodrich’s administration is not the only weak spot in the republican party of Indiana. Oil Inspection Presentation to a proposed special session of the legislature of another oil inspection bill by republican party workers is entirely unnecessary. The oil inspection department of the state is today more thoroughly political than it was before the governor "took it out of politics.” Nearly all the old "political inspectors” are on the Job, either In person or by deputy; the cost of “Inspecting” oil is approximately as great as it ever was. The only difference seems to be that while the remuneration used to be paid in the form of fees to the inspectors it is now paid in the form of “traveling expenses,” and the latter term is bro^d. All of which brings forth a question of why the state of Indiana should ■maintain an oil inspection department at all.

Under ‘Peeping Tom’ Cloud, Prowler Held Oscar Coffman. 525 V& Virginia avenue, is held under a high bond today charged with vagrancy, while the police seek to determine whether he is a “peeping Tom.” Coffman was arrested by Motor Policemen Reilly and Weddle when he was found near 622 North Tacoma avenue, from which neighborhood the police had received numerous complaints of a prowler looking in windows. U. S. Aid in Mexican Plague^ Has Results VERA CRUZ, June 18. —The vigorou* crusade - begun, by Dr. Carl Mitchell, American medical expert, against the bubonic plague, is already showing good results. Only one death was reported on Thursday and no new cases. Dr. Mitchell has organized anew sanitary squad and 230,000 pesos has been raised to equip it. - ’ Terre Haute Club Now in State Kiwanis Ring Members of the Indianapolis Kiwanis club participated in a ceremony last night at Terre Haute, Ind., which admitted she sixteenth Kiwanis club Into the state organization.
