I Chicago, Detroit, St. I-oals, G. Logan Payne Cos. Advertising Offices ) y<w Bo , t on, Payne. Burns l Smith, Inc. WILL THE LEGISLATURE adjourn in time for the republican editors’ picnic or nrust the restraint continue? THERE MAT BE disagreement as to how traffic should be -regulated in Meridian street, but there is general agreement that it ought to be regulated. ' / IT IS DIFFICULT to understand what there was about that letter from Goodrich to President Wilson that caused Taggart and Watson to be advised of it before transmission. An Organization Duty It ought to be apparent to the members of the state democratic committee and the leaders of the democratic party in Indiana that the voters of this state desire above everything else a chance to register their utter disgust with the present Goodrich administration. It ought to be apparent to the whole democratic party that its best, if not its only, chance of carrying Indiana next November depends upon its ability to do these things: 1. Prove to the people of Indiana that the present irksome phases of government under which they are laboring were spawned by Goodrichism, nutured by greed and developed in the interest of graft. 2. Prove to the voters of Indiana that the republican state organize tion and the republican candidates for state office not only endorse to the fullest extent the record of Goodrlchism, but are so thoroughly impregnated with its teachings that they coukl not. if they would, give the people of i Indiana any other kind cj an administration in the next four years. 3. Prove to the people of Indiana that only throdgh the election of a complete democratic ticket can they hope to obtain relief from the unbearable abridgements of their personal rights and the complete paternalism that have been demonstrated by the centralized autocracy of James P. Goodrich. Every movement that tends in any way to detract from the accomplishment of these three things ought to be subjected to the closest scrutiny, weighed with the gravest consideration and unless It be found overwhelmingly necessary, cast out of the democratic program. Nearly all, if not all. suggested programs that detract i nanv measure from a vigorously conducted onslaught against the Goodrich administration j record will be found, on careful investigation, to be prompted more by a desire to protect Goodrlchism than to advance the cause of democracy. j All‘the republicans of Indiana and some of the so-called democrats sincerely hope that the democratic campaign can be so diverted as to make Goodrlchism a secondary issue. Trades have been suggested and in some instances consummated for this purpose. - Every trade of this kind weakens democratic chances for success at the polls. He best serves the democratic party of Indiana who stands four-square for the elimination of centralization and Goodrichism in Indiana and stead- j fastly refuses to be diverted from the attack on the weakest point in the front of a fearful republican organization. Fighting Goodrichism in Indiana does not involve detraction from the great national issue of the league of nations. It does not mean that democrats must show legs interest in the election of their national ticket than in the election of their state ticket. But it does mean that In their ambition to place the electoral vote of this state in the democratic column they must not sacrifice their opportunity to relieve the citizens of the state from the intolerable conditions now imposed by the present occupants of the statehouse. Every' ounce of energy that can be bent to the election of the democratic ticket in Indiana Is needed to insure a democratic victory. Those democrats who by reason of long endeavor and peculiar fitness have qualified to make this campaign on state issues should not now be invited to abandon their efforts merely because others would prefer to rise to political heights through success with national issues. The democratic state committee owes it to the party to formulate an organization that will offer opportunity for equal and co-ordinated effort | on the part of ail. This sort of an organization can not be effected by permitting control of campaign publicity and campaign speaking to rest exclusively in the hands of those whx> have never in the past shown any desire to fight Goodrlchism and from whom today there comes no indication of such desir".

Bosses Modesty! Benjamin Bosse, chairman of the state democratic committee, admits that he is now the controlling influence In the policies of the' Evansville Courier, concerning which there wa9 much speculation when a sale of it to Henry Marshall was announced. Therefore, what the Courier says editorially may be taken as expression of Mr. Eosse's sentiments unless otherwise indicated. Whatever criticism of Mr. Bosse may be made he certainly can not. he accused of being overly modest as is shown by the following from his Evansville Courier: “Mayor Bosse has the complete confidence of the party as to his ability as an organizer. All are convinced that there will be a thoroughly efficient organization reaching down into the precincts and the blocks. This confidence has brought about a co-operation that has never before been possible in the democratic state organization.” . Which delectable bit of self-laudation is unfortunately followed by what imiight be termed a "reservation” in the following words: A “Each one feels that Mayor Bosse's OVERSIGHT of his own work will so careful that there will he no failure at any point along the line. - ’ Wke Law's Delays In The Times of Tuesday the statement was made In regard to the rrecent second conviction of Beverley Howard, negro politician, that "It. would be interistlng indeed to note just who comes to his rescue and which of the well-known methods is employed to keep Howard from paying the penalty of an offense for which he has twice been found guilty." E. J. Robison, whom Gov. Goodrich once termed "one of my closest business associates,” has become the bondsman for Howard and an appeal to the supreme court has been asked. In the course of Howard’s trial It was announced that owing to the difficulties in obtaining jurors talesmen would be "picked up” about the courthouse instead of drawn from the Jury box by the regular process. This method of completing a trial jury was attacked in the now famous case of state vs. Dennis Bush, which was appealed to the supreme court about four years ago and is still undetermined and the oldest case on the supreme court docket. Whether a decision against the state in the Bush case could be made to apply in the Howard case remains to be seen. Anyhow, Howard is not much nearer the state farm than he was when first tried in city court, more than one year ago. The Law That Lies By the eighteenth amendment to the constitution the manufacture, to-ale. etc., of "intoxicating liquors” is prohibited. Bp “containing one-half of 1 per centum or of volume.’’ Congress likewise provided for enforcement and the employment of Vforcing officers in the bureau of Internal revenue. m Enforcement officers get their pay through the authorization of con- j Press. Congress is boss. But now, mark you, the following from a recent decision of the internal revenue bureau de ding with uonintoxicating-cider and fruit juices- " After such nonintoxicating ciders and fruit juices are made, they must be"used exclusively in the home, and, when so used, the phrase ‘nonintoxicating’ means nonintoxicating in fact, and not necessarily less than one-half of 1 per cent of alcohol, as provided in section 1 of said act.” “Nonintoxicating IN' FACT” is the test the hired men of congress apply In this case. The hired men disagree with the boss and what they 1 say goes. They have caught the boss in something which is not a FACT, and they ram the lie down the throat of the boss. The internal revenue bureau is branding the lie in the law. It is a Term of not by a court but by an executive officer. What wil 'Hingress do about it? Will it confess the lie by permitting i wiU it try to make the lie stick by overruling- tlie ; —and the natural phenomenon of fermen-'j World. k

INA CLAIRE TO MAKE DEBUT On the Screen in ‘Polly With a Past’

j “Polly With a Past,” the play which ! made such a huge success on Broadway ; two seasons ago, is to be done in pictures j antj it is to be done with Ina Claire : in the part of Polly. Miss Claire created the part on the stage aud tills will be*her first appear- ! auce in pictures. Here is what Miss Claire has to say j about her decision to play in “Polly I With a .Past:” "It is because 1 know Polly and when I heard several other stars were after ; the rights and intended to bring my old friend to the screen 1 at once let it be known I would play the part. “Mary Piekford is the one star who wanted it. I “Now, I believe she is the greatest screen nitist in the world, but I Just- : could not see her as Polly. “There is a certain amount of sex in j this play, and 1 don’t believe Mary would care to play any part that even suggests such a thing.” S That makes U unanimous in favor of Miss Claire for the part. FIRST VACATION. McKay Morris is having a grand time cavorting around Indianapolis during his first vacation with the Stuart Walker comapny. Mr. Morris spends his mornings this week rehearsing the role of .Tim West la next week's bill, “A Little Journey,” and ; in the afternoon and evening ha haunts I the golf courses and swimming pools about town.

CONCERNING MACK SENNETT AND THE IMPORTANT BEN. Every time T sea Mack Beun'-tt comedy production the writer is curious to j know Just how much of the affair is Sennett, how much the movie writer and what part is Ben Turpin. Hen Turpin is rapidly moving to the front ns a screen comedian, and when he advances the Sennett comedies become more and more the sertous contender for first place In sereen comedy productions. The iiaao of Bennett is magnetic, as his name draws the folk in from the streets into the movie theaters, and when the fans see the name of Ken Turpin as a member of the cast, the value of a Bennett production is increased three fold. That was the feeling every one seemed to have the other day when I visited the Circle to see Mack Ben:x*tt's production of "Married Life." Hhe minute that the Sennett production was flashed on the screen every on* was satisfied and the second that Turpin’s name appeared there was applause. It seems that it takes the two names to make the entertament an assured success. and it is to lie hoped that these two gentlemen, who take the funmaking business seriously, will coutlnu* their partnership.

It is characterized by its high percetnago of volatile matter and its ready burning with a long name. Caitnol coal l used in the manufacture of illuminating gas anil as a domestic fuel for open grate fires. It t* rained In Missouri and Kentucky. GORILLAS IN CAPTIVITY. Q Are gorillas In captivity savage aud unruly ? U. N. M A. Young gorillas are occasionally captured aud several have reached Europe and America. In spite of great ear*, only one of these survived more than eighteen months before succumbing .‘o lung disease.

!‘THE’ IS WORD MOST USED BY AVERAGE MAN Government Statistician Sompiles List of America’s Verbal Pets. T GETS FIFTH POSITION r By FKEDRIC J. MASKIN'. WASHINGTON, July 29.--In that clatter of the tongue and scratch of the lead' pencil that goes on from the tlmo one Is born to the day of his last slow ride, whnt word of all those in the dlctk inry do you suppose he uses the greatest number of times? Would you like to know- the word that is the heeond favorite, tho one that Is enunciated third most frequently and the one that occupies fourth place among verbal tools? This unusual fact has recently been determined. Folks use the word “the" twice as often as any other. Next to it is "and." Then follow "of”‘and "to.” Since all of us are egotists the little pronoun "1” Is the fifth word In use. and occurs one third oftener than the pro noun "you." i "A,” “in,” "that.” “for.” “it.” “was,” 1 | "Is,” “will” and "as” appear In order, j STATISTICIAN ISN'T DULL INDIVIDUAL. In eliciting the above facts the statis- j ticlan has dlsproveu the widely accepted theory that he Is a dull and tedious In- j dividual who inav be depended upon tb select for his enumerations come ob scure and technical subject in which the average run of men ond women are not interested. Here is ore man of tables and aver ages who is human. lie was,during tin world war. Col. Leonard P. Ayres, ai < tached to the office of tho chief of staff. He is now Mr. Ayres, director of eduI cation for the Russell Sago Foundation. At the close of tho war Col. Ayres ! complied for the war department a statistical summary which showed at a glance what had happened during those months of conflict. His summary showed, for instance, that that the total battlo deaths in the recent war were greater than tho death* in alt war* for a hundred years before; j 1 that Russia suffered most, despite her ! withdrawal; that Germany lost thirty two time* ns many men a* the United State*; France twenty-eight time* as j many, nnd Great Britain eighteen lime* u* many. 53 IN 1.000 ARE KILLED. In this war fifty-three mn in 1.000 j were killed in battle In a year, while in j i tho civil war thirty-three in 1,000 were i so killed, and in the Mexican war fifteen in each 1.000. Thu* the death rate in battlo during the world war highest of all sr.rs Col. Ayres further reported that during ; the Mexican war 110 in each I.QOO men | i died of disease, and that sixty Ilvo in | each 1,000 were lost from tho same cause f during the civil war. But during the world war the los* from disease was only nineteen In each 1,000 men, so that the late conflict scored it greet success through making a science of cleaniineis.

And It would have been Just the sort of place to spend a vacation if the husband of the good little woman who had given Puss a night's lodging, hadn't been a bold, bad robber.

But Jim was so tired—or so completely wrapped in his own thoughts—that he did not respond. I felt sorry for Evvy now. I had bctrun to feel for her when Neall rose dutifully fb waltz with her and then fell to dancing mechanically, leading her around In a dull maze that permitted him to look over her head at I’hoebe. When the dance was over Neal had flung himself down at Phoebe's aide and there he had remained until we started for home In the same ‘‘formation’’ we had used all through the day—Neal and Phoebe. Virginia and Sheldon paired off in one car, and Ervy the ‘‘odd one” In the group where I had felt almost an intruder earlier in the day. Ko when Betty and Terry deposited ns st our door I found myself able to kiss F.vvy an almost pitying good night. Sup pose Bhe had flirted with my husband? That did not matter, for though her attentions had been forced on Jim, his had been given to me. I have been miserably jealous in the past—Jealous of both Evvy and Betty. But now I realize that I have a rival to face who is far more dangerous than any woman, however beautiful and charming. And 1 wonder can I deal with it? Our good-nights said .Tim and I hurried upstairs. And with thudding heart I was preparing myself for what I had to do. / “It sure has been a Inge day, hasn’t it.
