SUPPOSE

We all know that Bryan's government ownership plan was repudiated by the voters but have you ever heard of Bryan's saying that he was WRONG on that question? How do you know that if he was elected president, he wouldn't work for government ownership?

There are loyal republican legislators at Indianapolis who want to see Taft and Watson elected. They want to see the party win far more than

JOHN w. KERN, THE DEMOCRATIC candidate for vice president, wrote an article for a weekly magazine lately in which he wrote at length on the subject entitled "My Conception of the Vice Presidency." The article gave the public Mr. Kern's ideas of the duties and functions of the office for which Mr. Kern is a candidate. It seems that Mr- Kern, who was put on the ticket by T. Taggart's influence, has brought a great deal of ridicule upon himself by his article. It has been pointed out that if Mr. Kern would simply study the constition of the United States, which he could probably get in any

DooKstore in Indianapolis, he would find that the vice president of the United States shall be president of the senate, but shall have no vote unless they be equally divided. That's all there is to It As has been said, Mr. Kern is

not supposed to have any conceptions.

Kern s lengthy conceptions are ridiculous. What he would like to do counts

for nothing. What he would have to do, was arranged a long time ago. But there is really no reason to fuss over all this, for it doesn't look as if Mr. Kern could even be vice president. THE TIMES' ARGUMENT GETS GOOD ADVERTISING. THE OPEN LETTER PUBLISHED by the Chicago Tribune on Sept. 18 asking Mr. Bryan the pertinent question as to how he could give the electorate the impression that he could carry out the policies he advocates, If elected, where he knows that the senate will be republican for the next four years, has made quite a sensation. Coming from so great a newspaper as The Tribune the letter is being widely copied and so far has been ignored by the democratic candidate. ' It its editorial, dated Sept. 4, The Times also called the attention of its readers to the futility of Mr. Bryan's expecting to carry out his policies when we said: "There are plenty of good republicans who are convinced that the inequalities of the present tariff schedule need urgent revision. We fall to see, however, where the election of Mr. Bryan would advance the cause of tariff revision. After March 4, no matter if a republican or democrat be elected president and the house of representatives be controlled by either party, the senate will be republican for four years. It will be impossible of course to pass a tariff bill when the house and senate are at loggerheads politically. "Mr. Bryan couldn't revise it for four years, for the republican senate would deadlock him and bind him fast, even though he had the house behind him."

alks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright, 190S, by Edwin A. Nye. A MEDICAL HERO. This is the story of a beautiful heroism. It happened some time ago in the Missouri university, but it is too good to be lost. It is a story not uncommon In tho annals of the medical fraternity, which nam berg so many quiet heroes. Dr. Arnold was a. distinguished surgeon and dean of the medical faculty. One day when the doctor was at luncheon, with some students a father rushed frantically ir.to his presence and implored the surgeon to come to the aid of his child, who was choking to death from diphtheria. Dr. Arnold started a student on the run to the lecture room for Instruments. Going to the little patient, he kept up' respiration until his instrument case was brought. An incision in the thorax was made and a tube Inserted. But the child's respiration was ceasing. Immediately the surgeon knelt and placed his lips to those of the child and started respiration. In doing so he sealed his death warrant AND HE KNEW IT. Dr. Arnold was suffering -from a severe cold, and his bronchial tubes were highly inflamed. Three days later he died. And that is not all, glorious as it is. When asked by the startled and sorrow stricken students why he did not let the father of the boy breathe the life back into the collapsed organ of the child the doctor quietlv said: "BECAUSE HE IS THE FATHER. AND THE CHILD NEEDS HIM. I AM A BACHELOR." The world may reck little of such heroism, but it is of the sort that must swing all the doors of heaven wide open. "Greater love hath no man than this that he lay down his life for his friend." Dr. Arnold's ready heroism transcended even this large measure of human love. It was not a friend of Ills for whom he died. It was a little child, with no special claim upon him save that of humanity. Arnold did not stop to balance values. Duty called, and he died. Such heroisms come only from those long dedicated to humane service, who need no special inspiration to courage, who daily put their lives in jeopardy. The world scarcely can measure its loss of a man like this, of whom it is not worthy. But the example of his self sacrifice almost atones for the loss.

King of Slam. Chulalongkorn I., king of Siam, was born Sept. 21, 1853, and is the eldest son of the late King Maha Mongkut, Whom he succeeded upon the throne Oct. 1. 1868. The royal dignity in Siam is nominally hereditary, but does not descend always from the father to the eldest son, each sovereign being Invested with the privilege of nominat ing nis own successor. King Chulalongkorn is a tall and fine looking specimen of an Oriental monarch. He has a number of wives, of whom, how ever, only one has the rank of aueen. He has three children by the present queen and two by a former queen who died several years ago. There are also twenty half brothers of the king. The King governs his country with the aid of a cabinet consisting of the heads of the various departments of the government. RANDOM THINQS AND FLINGS State street looked pretty last Sat urday night.

THE TIMES.

For President WILLIAM H. TAFT He Is as strong as be U gentle. His reputation la simply spotless. In all the agitation of a heated campaign for the greatest office la the world, no one has ventured to Intimate a doabt of the absolute honesty of this man who has been before the country for a quarter of a century. Nor can any one successfully dispute the simple proposition that In the whole history of the United States no one was ever named for the presidency who was so fitted by nature, by training and by experience for the duties, dignities and responsibilities of that unique office CHARLES HOPKINS, In "The Independent."

UP AND DOWN IN INDIANA

WOULD-BE DANIEL BOONES. Armed with a repeating shotgun and a repeating rifle of the finest make, Justin Chenoweth and Harry Martin, 16-year-old boys from Marshall, 111., were caught at Sullivan as they were on their way, yesterday afternoon, to Kentucky, to live as Daniel Boone had lived.

IN POLITICS Great preparations are being made for the entertainment of the conven tion of the National Republican league at Cincinnati next week. Advices received by the local committee in charge of arrangements indicate a large at tendance of delegates representing republican clubs throughout the country. The activity of the independence party in naming candidates for governor and other officers in many states has rather surprised the leaders of the older parties. The party will have tickets not only in Massachusetts, New York and Illinois, in which the party has displayed most activity in the past, but in a number of other states as well. Nathan Straus, the millionaire merchant who has been selected as chairman of the Democratic Business Men's league, is a brother of Oscar S. Straus, secretary of the department of commerce and labor and who is counted on as one of the strongest supporters of Taft and Sherman. The two brothers, though they stand on opposite sides of the political fence, are almost Inseparable companions "and their vast
