Daily Except Sunday, 25-29 South Meridian Street Telephones—Main 3500, New 28-351. MEMBER OF AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS. n&rea (Chicago. Detroit. St. Louis. <5. Logan Payne Cos. Advertising Offices ijf ew York, Boston. Payne. Burns & Smith, Inc. GROVER CLEVELAND once said “public office is a public trust, not a private snap," but that was before the days of Goodrichism in Indiana. WE WERE POSITIVE that sooner or later those bandits would run into someone of our 450 policemen. DETOORING CARS several blocks south in Meridian street to get around a temporary blockade on Massachusetts avenue is about as direct action as the traction company ever takes. THE ONLY PUZZLING thing about that “drafting” of W. H. O Brien for the generalship of a presidential candidate’s division is why Mr. O'Brien so coyly hesitates. NEITHER GOV. GOODRICH nor Secretary Tumulty seems to regard the governor’s letter about the coal situation as so much of a literal j gem that it ought to be published. WITH THE SINGLE EXCEPTION that it is unable to agree on the things it was called to do, the legislature seems to be perfect accord with the administration. ' MEMBERS of the public service commission do uot appear to be any more willing to take over the coal industry than the general public is willing to have them do it. THE CERTAINTY with which Washington predicts republican victory would indicate that the senators expect to dispose of the election in the same way they did the Chicago nominal ion.

Beware the At ms-Bearers The announcement of Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch, democratic candidate for governor at French Lick last week that while he did not desire to engage in personalities in this campaign he would not refrain from rating the attention of the public to the "gross mismanagement'’ of state affairs is the moet reassuring incident of the powwow to those who earnestly wish for the defeat of the republican party in Indiana The statement was a courageous one, made in the fare of a strong effort inside and upon the democratic organization to “soft-pedal” its state campaign in the fear of “offending” some of the republicans on whom it is declared dependence can be placed for the betrayal of their party next November. Dr. McCulloch will find increasing difficulties in the way of pointing out the flaws of the Goodrich administration as the campaign progresses. The republicans of this state are wily flatterers and oily politicians. They have heretofore succeeded in exerting enough Influence in the councils of the democratic party to mould the campaign procedure along lines that weakened It and several months ago It was the opinion of the experienced Mr. Taggart that such a plan would be attempted this campaign. Already there has been an effort to convey to the democrats of Indiana assurances of republican support “if the democrats would just refrain from becoming obnoxious.” According to one rumor Jim Goodrich was going to lend his support to democracy. According to another Charles W. Jewett was going to relinquish all efforts to keep the Marlon county republican organization together and thereby let the democrats win. According to still another rumor the democrats are to be supported this year openly by the News and covertly by the Star. All of which Is, of course, the sheerest kind of nonsense and ought to be apparently so to any one with political acumen. However, there is no gainsaying that either these rumors or some other influence have had considerable effect on the preliminary arrangements of the democratic organization for the conduct of this campaign. The extent to which the democrats are prevented from making a vigorous, frank and unalloyed attack on the republican administration will play a big part in the results next November. The democracy can not expect to win Indiana without winning Marion county. They can not win Marion county on national issues, nor by any other kind of a campaign than one tHat shows the people of Marion county wherein it will be to their personal advantage to forget natural republican tendencies and vote the democratic ticket. It remains to be seen whether the state organization as it has now been constituted, was so constituted with or without this realization.

Goodrich and Wilson James P. Goodrich, the governor who denounced Woodrow Wilson as a socialist and so far forgot patriotism as to refuse to utter the name of the commander-ln-chief of the nation during the war, Is now appealing to this same "socialistic” president to restore the fuel administration for the purpose of averting what he regards as a "crisis.” In this action those democrats who were deceived by the bitter antiWilson propaganda ought to see the measure of the sincerity of their republican brothers who led them astray. Wilson, several months ago, was wholly without ability or qualifications to be of service to the nation, in the oft repeated estimate of Goodrich and others. W r llson, today, Is the one man in the whole United States to whom the governor of Indiana feels impelled to turn for help in meeting a condition that he frankly admits he can not, as govenor, successfully face. It must be more or less humiliating to those persons who believe the anti-Wilson propaganda to find now that its most ardent supporters are acknowledging its falsity and recognizing in the man they slandered an ability far greater than their own. It must be somewhat embarrassing for those politicians who declared themselves against all measures tending to centralize power in the federal government to have the titular head of their party calling on the president to re-establish centralized control to help him out of a situation which he admits being unable to handle. But the most significant thing about the appeal of Gov. Goodrich to President W T ilson for control of the coal industry in Indiana is that it indicates a situation far more serious than has yet become apparent. If Jim Goodrich is unable to cope with an industry in which his family and his more remote relatives, his stenographers, clerks and business associates are playing such an active part it is time for those of us with less affluence to begin to be alarmed.

Appalling , hut Possible A delightful time indeed must have been had when the women of a New Foundland cove, one day recently found seals on running ice, and started out for their winter coats. They w'ent in boats, it seems, armed with clubs and gaffs, and when nightfall and exhaustion caused them to quit had caught or killed 100 seals. Just think of what might happen if a big bunch of seals were discovered waddling up Washington street, or Illinois or Pennsylvania, or any other street that is well traveled—each seal an incipient seal skin coat or some sort of feminine gear. Traffic cops, or even the entire department? The thought of them in such an emergency is mere folly. A seal skin coat for the mere labor of tapping the raw product over the head and then plucking out the wild hairs and a few minor necessary ,o iterations. But it is better as it is, from a masculine standpoint, for the mere thought of seeing one's wife appear around the corner, wearily dragging a complete seal, sans life or mostly so, and with the request that one •help in the dressing, or undressing of it. in the late hours of the night and the small hours of the morning, is just a bP appalling * t

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES A New Serial of Young Married Life

CHAPTER LXLIX. Catching Jim's hand in hers with a childish gesture, Evelyn started. But Jim held out his other hand to me—and in a maze of unhaprlness and wonder I took bis hand. Warmly his fingers curled against my palm, and he drew me close to his side. Was Evvy to Jim only a pretty petulant child, consoling herself for the desertion of Sheldon—and even the boy Neal ? Or was she a woman—the woman he had almost married? As we edged our way through the good-natured, elbowing. laughing throng Evvy fell silent. 1 wondered what thoughts followed so close on the prattling she had bnshed. r peered around Jim’s arm and found her smiling through narrowed eyes. “Hurry, Jim; hurry I I think I see someone I know” —again her voice trailed off. Through a gap in the crowd I caught a glimpse of a familiar figure, bulking large In the holiday throng. It was Tom Mason. And near him was a grayhaired figure at once strange and familiar. “Do hurry a bit, Jimmle-boy. There's good old cousin Tom Just back from camp. I'll wager—and Evvy wants to see her big cousin. Do push harder for Evvy, who tipped you to the ‘Yankee Kid.' Please—Jimmie boy I” pleaded Evelyn in her little throaty, trembling voice. Jim turned to Sheldon, who was Just bark of us with Virginia “Come on. Shelly—help me with a center rash. Evvy sees her cousin and she wants to welcome him home."

Rgious symbolism. Because of its peculiarly mournful notes it was used in pagan funerals. This later passed into Christian usage and the dove’s likeness, usually with an olive branch, was carved on most of the tombs in the catacombs beneath Rome to typify eternal peace. GRAVITY ON MARS.

HOUSEHOLD MOTH. Q. Will you give me some Information concerning the ilfe-hlstory of the common household moth? W. A. T. A. The United biological sur vey says that the common clothes motli will fly about for a while if possible, before laying its eggs.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR. By DAVID CORY.

“The miller he grinds his corn, his corn; The lniller he grinds his corn, his corn; And Little Boy Blue comes winding his horn. With a hop and a skip and a jump.” A little bird In a tree nearby was singling this song as Puss Junior came in sight of the old mill, where the water turned the mill-wheel over and over, and the little silver fishes swam around and around in the quiet pond. And as soon as the rusty, dusty miller saw Puss Junior he stepped out of the old mill and said: “Good-day, my good Sir Cat. What brings you to my old mill?” Now of course Puss had no real reason for coming; be was just traveling along, you know, seeking adventure, so he replied: “1 have no corn for you to grind, my good miller. But will you sit down for a while and talk? I'm a traveler, seeking adventure, and 1 have seen many sights." Then the rusty, dnty miller sat down, but he didn't brush the flour off his hat nor off his coat, for it. would only cover him again, you see; and what was the use'of doing the same thing three and four times a day? And I guess that is the reason they called him the “rusty dusty miller." “You know.” said little Puss Junior, "My father is the famous Puss in Boots.

Seneschal to my Lord of Carabas.” “I once read about him in a book,” replied the miller. “So has everyone,” said Puss Junior, with a grin. “But I atn not contented

to find a fortune. One must work for it. for he who spends must earn, as the sld saying goes. j “WdUl, I stay right here and grind the farmers’ corn,” said the miller, “and every morning tney make the flour into cakes for little boys and girls. I find it is much better to be contented with* one’s lot than to be forever moving from one spot to another.” And after that the old miller dusted off his cap and patted the gray cat that came out of the mill to sit by his side. And wasn’t it strange? She never took any notice of Puss Junior at all. I guess she thought a cat with boots and spurs was not an ordinary cat, and maybe she was right iu that, for Puss was very differeut from the cats you see every day in houses and barns. “Oh every day 'I grind my corn, Which the farmers bring at early dawn. And when I have tied the bags up tight They come to get them every night. And then the meal is made into dough For cakes and puddings white as snow. I hope each child at breakfast time Will think of the dusty miller's rhyme. —Copyright. 1920. (To be continued.) ROOSEVELT RESERVOIR. Q. Is the Roosevelt reservoir in Arizona a success M. E. L. A.
