Just Cannot Go Government Ownership of Railways.
Indianapolis, Sept. 10. Flame? which burst from a moving picture machine on tiie stage of the Little Gem theater here just before the performance was to have begun caused a panic in the audience. The fire was caused by the accidental focusing of the rays of the powerful electric light in the picture machine through the len?es into the film department. The
sensitized paper of which the films ;ire
made flart-d. up in an instant and the flames reached the tanK of calcium carbide below the machine and caused
an explosion which scattered the big
picture machine in fragments over the
theater.
Lucky It Was So Worse. With yells of terror the men, women
and children, comprising the audience.
leaped to their feet and"charged wildly toward the front entrance. In their
haste they trampled over one another,
but fortunately no one was seriously injured.
Microbe Theory May Go Hang. Indianapolis. Sept. 10. Apropos to
the rules recently adopted by the Indiana state board of health relative to
kissing, is a story from Minneapolis,
which says: " "They can't teach such doctrine here so long as I am super
intendent of schools,' said Superintendent Jordan, in discussing the action of
the Indiana state board of health In placarding public schools with orders against kissing on the mouth because of danger of miserobes. Dr. Jordan is a thorough believer in and advocate of the oid -fashioned way of osculation. So far us he is concerned whatever microbes may attach to one's lips may go hang. Worth the Risk of llacilli. "Dr. Jordan had just finished reading an article in a weekly publication on Indiana's crusade when he threw the paper from him with disgust and made the remark quoted
above. 'I guess a good smack on the
mouth is worth all the rusk of bacilli,' he remarked as he walked away, he remarked as he walked rfiway." He Is Opposed to Bryan. Indianapolis, Sept. 30. Sterling It.
Holt, ex-chairman of the Democratic
state central committee, when asked
his opinion of Bryan's government
ownership theories,-said: "I am abso
lutely opposed to it. I think that Bryan has been guilty of one of the greatest blunders ever made. The American people are not ready for government ownership and I hope they never wi'.l be." ,

One Shown Between Whites and Black Italians and Huns Warned to Get Out. Princeton, Ind., Sept. 10. As a result of a white man striking a negro girl with a whip, a race riot broke out at the fair grounds here. Scores of whites and blacks participated in the riot, and three whites and two negroes were injured. Before it ended the whites drove the negroes from the grounds. A score of participants was arrested. TTnh T.rn;iiif yer. a negro, was shot in the head. Richmond. Ind., Sept. 10. Tbe continued protests of citizens of Fairview against the presence of Italians and Hungarians in their midst reached a climax at a mass meeting of citizens, which decided that the obnoxious foreigners should be given formal notice to move to some other part of the city. If they decline, the Fairview people will prosecute them as trespassers, the lease on the property which they occupy having been de-
i i clared void.
miuure oi a liascai. Richmond. Ind., Sept. 10. Superintendent Bailey, of the Richmond police department, has wired from Sault Sto.

Richmond, Va., Sept. 10. The TimesDispatch telegraphed John, Sharp Williams, minority leader in congress, at Yazoo City, Miss., for an expression, of his views on Bryan's plans for government ownership of railroads, receiving from Williams the following reply: "I am opposed to government ownership of railroads irrevocably, nowand forever, in theory and in practice a
question concerning which Mr. Bryan and I agree to disagree. But I see no good to be attained by my rushing into print on the subject. We will simply vote it down if offered as a plank of
the Democratic platform. 'Ijet Us Have Peace," as It Were "Meanwhile let us not magnify Democratic differences. There are so many things we are agreed upon let us magnify them. Push them to the front if we can. Bryan is not Infallible and does not pretend to be. He is right about so many things, eloquently and greatly right, but absolutely and altogeher wrong about this one thing, especially from the standpointof. racial peace and quiet in the south. Let us strongly regulate railroad rates, but not operate railroads." Bryan and Roger Sullivan. Lincoln. Neb., Sept. 10. Bearing
upon Roger Sullivan's assertion that Bryan had told an untruth, the latter was asked: "Is it a. fact that you did not write a personal letter to Sullivan asking him to resign?" "I did not write to Sullivan," replied Bryan. "I wrote to Judge Thompson, and asked him to show the letter to Sullivan. I did not assert that I had written a personal letter to Sullivan." Bryan said he did not care to reply to Sullivan in an interview, either as to whether he could prove that more than half the Illinois delgates to the St. Iuis convention repudiated Sullivan, or as to acceptance of Sullivan's challenge. He said he expected to make a statement in a
few days. Dick Stands bp Foraker. Akron, O., Sept. 10. Refusing to be indorsed unless the name of Senator Foraker was also included in the resolution. United States Senator Dick was

By uanimous vote the Hamilton county Republican convention, after selecting delegates' to the state convention, indorsed the administration of President Roseveltand the record and services of Senators l oraker and Dick.

Roosevelt's ideas.

BLOODY DEED AT EAU CLAIRE
Jealous Husband Kills His Wife, a Man She Was with and Then Himself. Eau Claire, Wis., Sept. 10. While a band was playing and Saturday night shoppers were thronging the principal east side street a frezied husband, firing as he ran, chased his wife and another man through a crowd, past the city building and around a corner to the front of a leading hotel, where the two fugitives fell dead, each pierced by two bullets. The pursuer then backed off from the crowd and shot himself, dying almost instantly. The name of the man who did the shooting was Bert Tandler. The other dead man was Milton Johnson, a faeemploye, and the woman was the wife of the murderer and suicide. Tadler's
wife had left him and applied for divorce, and he thought that Johnson was in some way responsible.
OYEItXMEXT enfranchised a largo number of separate corporations in Xew York city to furnish gaslight in different sections of the city. They aro now consolidated into a monopoly UNDER ONE HOLDING COM
PANY which regulates the price of gas for all of them. The capitalization of the separate companies thus consolidated under one head is $90,000,000 of stock and $100,000,000 of bonds, while tho paper capital of the holding company is $100,000,000 more. The total of these bonds and paper shares of stock 13 many times the actual investment, and the community has to pay a price for gsa which will pay the interest on these bonds and dividends on thesa FALSE PAPER SHARES OF STOCK, which aro thus made a perpetual tax upon the community. Instead of reducing tho prico of gas when dividends get too largo to be tolerable, more stock is added, so that the dividend rate is lowered while the total dividend remains the same AND INCREASES. Think of the franchises of tho people being used in this way to drain the pockets of the peoplo FOR THE BENEFIT OF A FEW. In the same way tho street railroad companies in New York city ara capitalized and consolidated. There is no hostility to their consolidation. Consolidation on a basis honest to tho public would be a benefit to tho public. But consolidation on a basis of more than fivo times, and may be ten times, tho ACTUAL CAPITAL honestly; invested is an outrage on the public. Instead of reducing fares for short distance riders ns dividend! grow too large to be permissible, these companies have kept on increas ing their PAPER CAPITAL so that tho dividend ra to would be kept
aown.
On this false basis these companies are now all consolidated tmder a series of leases for 999 years each, tho present controlling company

This company in turn leased itself for 999 years to another company formed for tho purpose, which in like manner agreed to pay interest and dividends on the bonds and paper capital of the lessor com pany, and this system of new paper companies and new leases hat already gone through several stages, each stage adding millions of net , etock FOR THE COMMUNITY TO PAY DIVIDENDS Oltf a3 a tax in perpetuity.

The Young IMan In Politics By JOHN T. McCALL. Former New York Alderman
MAX in politics who hasn't the courage of m3 convictions and THE XERVE TO SPEAK HIS MIXD when tha opportunity calk for it isn't much good to any political or
ganization, assuming always ho is loyal to the principles of tho party he affiliates with. Every young man ought to take enough interest in politics to votd at the primaries. If we could get the young men to take an interest In the primaries there would never be any clamor about CROOKED ELECTIONS. TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO TAKE THE INITIATIVE IN POLITICS IS MORE ESSENTIAL THAN IN ANY OTHER BUSINESS, AND IT REQUIRES MORE GOOD JUDGMENT TO DECIDE HOW TO USE IT AFTER YOU HAVE DISCOVERED THAT YOU HAVE IT.
