THIS YEAR’S PRODIGY at Harvard has mastered five languages, works problems in calculus and Is only 13 years old. By the way, can any one remember what has become of the prodigies of other years? Can Women Approve? Voters of Marlon County, and especially the newly enfranchised women, should not overlook the fact that a. Republican vote this election is an the Republican administration of Indiana and Marlon County. Voting the Republican ticket this fall Is equivalent to putting a seal of approval on: 1. The opening of coal mines in which the Governor's son Is financially interested by convict labor. , 2. The sale by the Governor and his associates to the city of Indianapolis of a 210,000 garbage plant for $175,000. 3. The trading of Government trucks for pleasure cars for State officials. 4. The building of inferior roads for the State at a cost of $6,191 a mile more thaq better roads cost the county. _ * 5. The nomination of a candidate for State treasurer who went short in his accounts as a county treasurer. 6. The nomination of a*Board of Trade speculator for Governor. 7. The compromise of Judgments by the prosecutor with a notorious bootlegger of Marlon County. " 1 8. The maintenance of a poker game in the county Jail; the serving of rotten food to prisoners, and the punishment of an Insane may by burning his feet and of another by playing the hose on him while he lay naked on a cold cell floor. 9. The waste of thousands of dollars, aggregating so much that It is necessary for the taxpayers of Marion County alone to contribute $6,000,000 a year more In taxes than they ever did before. 10. The deprivation of local communities of the right to fix their tax levies and Issue bonds. The Republican party of Indiana has indorsed the State administration of James P. Goodrich under which all these and many more reprehensible things oecurred. v . Warren T. McCray is pledged to carry out the platform of the Republican party, which approves of these things. In Marlon County the deputy of the prosecutor who has compromised with the bootlegger Is a candidate to succeed him. The Republican candidate for sheriff Is a political puppet of the same bosses that controlled the sheriff who tolerated the Jail conditions. The election of either Is condonement of all that has been found disgraceful In the present administrations. Isn’t the Republican party asking the women voters of this State to swallow too much when it asks them to vote to perpetuate a gang whose incapacity for public office has produced so many scandals?

Compromises or Prosecutions? Claris Adams, prosecuting attorney of Marlon County, "compromised” two judgments against Lorenz Leppert, notorious bootlegger, thereby saving Leppert $1,500. Wiliam P. Evans, candidate for the office of prosecutor on. the Republican ticket and a deputy of Mr. Adams not only approves this compromise but has publicly endeavored to defend it. This action of Adams was a compromise between the prosecutor and a lawbreaker attempting to shield other lawbreakers from trial for lawbreaking. There were two parties to the compromise contract. On one side was Mr. Adams, representing the State of Indiana. On the other was Leppert, representing the lawless bootleggers of Indianapolis. They reached an agreement by which the people were deprived of $1,500, which the court had decreed should be paid by Leppert. Mr. Adams says the “compromise” was made in the “customary manner.” Thereby he admits that it is his custom to enter into contracts with bootleggers for the relief of the bootleggers. Mr. Evans says he approves of this compromise which was “customary." Under these circumstances it is not unfair to say that Mr. Evans has given fair warning to the people of Marlon County that if he is elected prosecutor he will continue making the “customary compromises” with bootleggers. If a man will compromise with a bootlegger will he,not compromise with a murderer, or an embezzler, or a grafter or a thief? Is there limit to which he may not compromise the State of Indiana if such is his “custom" or he approves of such a "custom?” Has not Mr. Evans given fair warning, to the voters of this county that if he is elected prosecutor he will “eonipromise" rather than prosecute cases against who violate the law. Does this community wish two years more of “compromising” with vice? Will you vote to elect Compromiser Evans prosecutor, or will you vot for Paul G. Davis, a candidate who promises no compromise with tilt iawiess dement of Marion County? t _______________________ In Contrast \

The contrast between the action taken hr Judge Hiles at Elkhart In the proceedings against Louis Vail and the action taken by Judge A. Collins In the affair of Charles W. Rollinson is too marked to be overlooked. Both Vail and Rollinson violated the sanctity of the grand Jury room in their zeal for their clients. Judge Hiles cited Vail for contempt on the ground that he had attempted to Influence the grand Jury In itn deliberations. Judge Collins completely ignored Rollinson’s conduct and undertook to punish a newspaperman because the paper to which he was attached, without his participation, published the truth about Rolllnson's conduct and requested the Indianapolis Bar Association to take steps to prevent repetitions of such conduct. Judge Hiles was plainly anxious to preserve the sanctity of the grand jury as an institution. Judge Collins showed uo interest in protecting the sanctity of the grand jury room. , But Judge Collins showed remarkable resourcefulness in his effort to punish a wholly innocent man because the Institution by which he was employed published facts that did not tend to enhance the Judge’s “nationally noted” reputation. Either Judge Hiles was entirely too Jealous of the reputation of his court or Judge Collins was v not sufficiently zealous In the protection of his court. Asa result, the man who violated the grand Jury room In Elkhart was forced* to answer contempt proceedings. The man who violated the grand Jury room in Marlon County in an even more flagrant manner escaped without even being called to account for his conduct, / What is admittedly contempt of court in Elkhart appears to be merely smart practice in Indianapolis. V Ye Gods! Mr. Watson is a "heart-breaking load to carry.” Mr. McCray Is afraid to have the public hear what J. \V. Fesler learned about him. Mr. Davis went short in his accounts as treasurer of Howard before he aspired to be state treasurer. Mr. Adams failed In his duties of reporting the actions of the Supreme Court and disgraced himself in Chicago before he sought renomination. Yet the Republican party of Indiana is trying to foist this “big four” on the voters as against such men as Taggart, McCulloch, George H. Dehority of Frankfort!

WHY THIS DELAY? Op Aug. 22, 1919, the Times published abetter signed by a number of Jail prisoners setting out their complaint as to the food served at the Marlon County jail and declaring that they-were starving. This letter was brought |o the attention of the Republican sheriff, “Hon est Bob’’ Miller, who refused to conduct an Investigation as to Its truth. No Investigation was conducted by the Marlon Criminal Court, the county prosecutor, or the Marlon County grand Jury. On March 30, 1920, Sludge Anderson began an investigation In the Federal Court of the conditions In the Marlon County .rail, the result of which outraged the people of this county alhd this State. On April 17. 1920, the Republican sher-

PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGNS XIII. The Hayes-'filden Race of 1876 By FREDERIC J. HASKIN

WASHINXJTON, I). C—With the Inauguration iof Rutherford B. Hayes as President of the United States In 1577 the eleven years reign of terror In the southern States came to-an end. Violent anarchy, supported by bayonets of the United States troops, and ntter defiance of law by the Government at Washing--ton, brought Mr. Hayes to the Presidency. Be It said to his overlasting credit that he did despise the bridge that carried blm over and mat he restore-1 free government In the States of the South. The nnyes Inauguration marked the end of the most furiously fought political contest this country has ever seen. To begin with, only eleven years bad elapsed since the end of the Civil War, and the Democratic party was accused by every Republican orator of a desire to restore the dead Confederacy. Against this charge the Democrats pleaded their loyalty to the flag and sent Democratic T T nino generals over the country, spellbinding. Fires of partisanship burned Oorcr-lv, and while they added to the heat of the campaign, other factors decided Its outcome. The panic of 1873 had plunged the country into financial distress and husl-oo-js depression such as It had not known before. Jay Gould was teaching Wall street some tricks that have not been wholly forgotten. The dl-renc< In vnlue between the axpetTbaok and the gold dollar was the basis of the wildest speculation. in which d-A *v,.oin>on people Invariably got the worst end of the bargain. These business;, conditions caused the people to want a change for the sake of a change. The Tilden democracy promised the resumption of specie payments and an end to business distress. The scandals of the Grant administration. which bad resulted In the Greeley defection of 1872, had Increased Instead of diminished. The famous "whisky ring" had been exposed, and a scapegoat or two was on the way o tne penitentiary. The secretary of war, Belknap, was Impeached, and escaped conviction only by resigning under Are. Said the Democratic platform, the work of Tilden and Watterson: HIGH CHIMES CHARGED AGAINST REPUBLICANS. "When the annals of the Republic show the disgrace and censure of a Vico President; 9 late speaker of the House of Representatives mark-'-tlng his rulings as a presiding officer; three Senators profiting secfetly by their votes as lawmakers; five chairman of the leading committees of the House of Representatives exposed in Jobbery; a late Secretary of the Treasury forging balances in pnblle accounts; a late attorney general mis appropriating public funds; a Secretary of Navy enriched- or enriching friends by percentages levied off the profits of contractors with his* department; an ambassador to England censured In a dishonorable speculation; the President's private seertary barely escaping conviction upon trial for guilty complicity in frauds upon the revenue; a Secretary of War impeached for high i crimes and misdeitfranors—the demoh- | stration is complete the first step In \ reform must be the people's choice of I honest men from another party, lest the disease of one political organization In- | feet the body politic, and lest, by making i no change of men or parties, we get no change of measures and no real reform." Upon this line the Democrats fonght their battle. It Is useless, perhaps, to go muek-rnking Into the past to tell of these scandals in particular; let It suffice to say that neither be.'ore nor since. In the history of the country, has the taint of graft been so noisome at the seat of the Federal Government. The Democrats nominated Samuel J. Tilden for President, after a sharp, but unequal contest In which Thomas A*. Hendricks of Indiana was his leading opponent. Hendricks was named for Vice President. "Tine PLUMED KNIGHT" ' BEATEN IN CONVENTION.

The Republicans met st Cincinnati. .Tomes G. Blaine was the general favorite for the nomination, and hut for the chicanery of the administration, would haie been selected. Blaine had already become the popular Idol of the Republicans. He was placed in nomination at Cincinnati by the eloquent Robert G. Ingersoll In the famous speech which gave Blaine tho naijje of “The Plumed Knight.” On the first ballot Rutherford B. Hayes, ex-Governftr of Ohio, stood fifth. Ills colorless, although blameless record, caused him to be selected ss the favorite dark bori?e, and he received the nomination on the Seventh ballot, although Blnlnb had more votes than on any other count. Hayes was helil up by the Republicans as absolutely pure and holy, a man who would clean the Augean stables at Wash-

DAVIS TALKS on DECENCYDemocratic candidate for Prosecuting Attorney tells why and under what conditions he seeks the support of Marion County voters.

\? was Indicted by the Marlon County grand Jury, but although more than six months have elapsed, he has not been brought to trial. I have demanded many times that the Republican prosecutor try the Republican sheriff before the election. I am mindful of the fact that he la presumed Innocent and I, myself, presume him innocent, but the statutes of limitations should not be allowed to run ag&lnßt those who are guilty and the Marlon County Jail scandal should be publicly aired so that the guilty, whoever they are, may be punished. I publicly ask the Republican prosecuting attorney publicly to state when he intends to try the Republican sheriff and why he does not try him before the election? PAUL G. DAVIS.

lngton If they needed cleaning, which the Republicans firmly declined to admit. Tilden was presented as a true reformer with a reform record. He had broken the rnje of the Tweed ring In New York, the most corrupt political machine ever known in the country up to that time, he had run Boss Tweed out of the country, and he vai th' hero of the good government forcee. To the Democrats the slogan, “Totj* the rascals out!" meant Just the same aa "Let Tllden In I" . , There was another factor in the campaign which had Its effect. One of th# chief- causes of the Liberal Republican bolt of 1872 was the fear that Genera! Grant was too much of a military man to sympathize with civil government. The whole South was ruled with bayonets and the Southern people wefe In a worse condition than when the war closed. Carpetbaggers were running the Stato governments, and with the aid of legislatures composed of Ignorant negroes and unprincipled white men, were hastening the day of absolute bankruptcy. By 1878 half of the Southern States had restored Peace and law, but In many the bayonet still held sway and the Federal troops were forcing a corrupt government upon the people. The North did not sympathize with this state of affa r. Many of the LibeSal Republicans however. disgusted with the failure of the Greeley campaign, anti believing that wbeh General Grant retired there would be no further trouble, flocked to the support of Hayes. Prominent among these were CYirl Scllur* and Murat Halstead, others of the Liberals finding their own organization had no life in It, went to the Tilden side of th* fight Among nets were men like Governor Curtin of l onnsylTßniu, one of the two men who nominated Lincoln for President In 1880; Joh “ H. Palmer, Charles Francis Adams, and others who henceforward were known as Democrats. ELECTION BRINGS ON HITTER CONTENT, ' The election day came and Tilden swept the country. Next morning the papers of every shad# of political faith sain Tilden was elected. Hut .Senator Chandler of New Hampshire, secretary of the Republican national committee, of which Senator Zacb Chandler was chairman, gave out the news that Hayes received 183 votes to Tilden’s 194. snd wss elected. Then the powerful machinery of the Federal Government was set In motion, and the contests were orlgInated n Louisiana. South Carolina. Florida and Oregon. The House of Representatives was overwhelmingly Democratic, the Senate was Republican. The country was threatened with anarchy, snd Congress de 'lsed the Electoral Commission. As It was constituted there were eight Republicans and seven Democrats on tbe com mission and every question before It was decided In favor of Hayes by a vote of eight to seven. Them* was an incipient revolt among Republican Senator* which would have prevented counting In the Hayea elector* from Louisiana. A t the head of It was Roseoe Conkltng. and enough Senators to bav# carried the day had ugreed to fight If Conkllng would lead. Kate Chase Sprague, according to the one n gossip of the time, persuaded him to change bis mind. Thus she was revenged on, Tilden for the defeat of her father, Chief Justice - Salmon P.

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS AN INTERPRETATION

XIV. As an Illustration of the definite and peaceful nature of the covenant of the League of Nations, proposed with two safeguarding reservations by Governor Cox and the Democrats, article 13, which Is published here. Is conclusive. What ‘•*l lomacy cannot settle to offset war, and what report pr rumor threatens to foment, a world court Is established by the covenant to prevent by investigation and decision. The great nations of tho enrtb have already bound themselves to abide by. such awards, and former Senator Root, ablest of the Republicans, hns Just completed the articles of Incorporation es the world court provided below: "The members of the league agreo that whenever any dispute (hall arise between them which they recognize to be suitable for submission to arbltfntton and which cannot be satisfactorily settled by diplomacy, they will submit tho wholo subject matter to arbitration.

Chase, for the Democratic nomination In 1868. Hayes was given the decision on March 2, two days before Grant’s ten# expired. The country, which had given a popular majority of a quarter of a million votes to Tilden, was Indignant, but there was no resistance. Hayes had hardly taken bold of the duties of his office before the country realized that he would t>e liberal. He toqk the Federal soldiers out of the South, restored civil government all over the Union, permitted the Democrats elected to State office to fake their seats, although elected on the •&me tickets with the Tilden electors, who had been thrown out. He disappointed the politicians of bis own party, but he stamped out anarchy and restored profound peace to the whole nation. Tbe Democratic papers called him "His Fraudlency,” and there were charges that he had made deals with Wade Hampton, Democratic Governor of South Carolina, and other Southern leaders. He Is the only man who has sat In the Pres ldent’s chair whose title to the office Is clouded, yet bis administration was one of the most beneficent the country has ever known.

nature of the*reparation to be made for any such breach, are declared to be among those which are generally suitable for submission to arbitration. For the consideration of any such dispute the court of arbitration to which the case 1* referrred shall be the court agreed on by the parties to the dispute or stipulated In any convention existing between them. "The members of 'he league agree that they will carry out in full good faith any awnrff that may be rendered and that they will not resort to war against a member of the league which compile* herewith. Tn the event of any failure to carry out such an award, the council shall propose what ateps should bo taken to give effect thereto."

Mr. Hoot performed tlrts great service at the request of the council. The court Is ready for establishment. At home the platform of bis party dodged the league Issue, and the candidate of his party foreswore the league and proposed Instead a separate pence with Germany. In the face of that i dishonorable proposal, and against the misrepresentations that this Is a league for war, stands among others, article 13. Read it again.
