There was quite a rivalry among the old guard of the republican party to "to sit at the right hand" of the president and what was once termed the insurgent wing of the party in Indiana was swallowed up body and soul in the day's doings. The prominence of such men as Fairbanks, Hemenway,
Durbin, Kealing, New and Goodrich in the entertainment of the president was quite noticeable and freely commented. It bears evidence that the new alignment is to be the old alignment. A remarkable incident of the day was

THE HOT WEATHER, The hottest Fourth of July in many years was yesterday. Old Hades
gave us an inkling of what the place really Is much to the delight of the ice men, the brewers, and the ice cream makers. As we now write thi3 with a wilted collar and a much wilted temper, with flies on the stick trail, with everything going the wrong way, and with drowsy editorial and mechanical factolums snarled at by not-to-be-blamed crank printers, who recall the happy days of four months ago when they slapped Into cold type stories about colder weather, skating parties, blizzards and snow storms, we try to frame up such phrases as blistering Gehenna, a merciless sun, the Sahara outdone and no relief in sight. Now we will try to be serious. Hot weather is a more serious proposition than the most prolonged zero spell. And it's the poor that suffer both times. Theso hot days means death to many babies. It means untold torments to those who can't afford to buy ice. Awful misery confronts those who live In hovels and close quarters. Thinking that we are not doomed to such misfortune the hot weather Is no reason why we should become grouchy. Others suffer far more than we ever dream of.

Why all this sudden hurry to boost the presidential aspirations of Gov
ernor Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey? . Why all this clatter from his press agent? And why doesn't Governor Marshall's publicity promoter get busy? One plate house writes us: "Many publishers have asked us whether we could not furnish plate matter relating to Governor Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey. For the purpose of making an arrangement to supply the demand, will you please state whether you desire such matter."
Another kindly plate manufacturer jumps in the breech with the follow
ing pathetic plea:
"Many publishers have asked us whether we could furnish plate matter relating to Governor Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, as a possible presidential candidate. For the purpose of making an arrangement now or later to supply the demand, will you please state whether you desire such matter, using the enclosed card as a means of immediate expression." Assuming that these letters have been sent broadcast over the country, It will be Interesting to note the number of editors who accept free Wilson boiler plate.
KNOTTS AGAIN ACQUITTED. In what most auspicious sign of the zodiac was Mayor T. E. Knotts born? Once again he has triumphed over his foes. Sound the tocsin and bang the cymbals. As prophesied in this paper several times, the conspiracy charges against Knotts and all the devilish election doings charged at his door, failed to convict him. The Gary mayor will next bo tried for embezzlement, but that he will find a loophole is as certain as it is that it isn't snowing. Comment is unnecessary. Poor old Justice, what a series of wallops you are getting where Nellie
jiears the beads.

HOW HE DIED. Speaking of heroes-
Note how John Grady of Nanticoke,
Pa., died.
He passed away singings In a weak
and faltering voice "The Top of the
Mornln'."
Nor was he Intoxicated nor beside
himself. He was sober and In bis
right mind. That a dying man should
sing the old Irish melody Instead of a
religions hymn seems strange. But-
Grady was an electrical worker, and
one day he was carried Into the presence of his mother with one leg and
both arms literally burned off by a
current. In his pitiful plight he suf
fered agonies beyond description.
But when he saw bis mother he for
got his pain.
Yon see, mothers are Just bound up
in their boys. It is the way of them
that when a son suffers pain in their
presence they suffer as keenly as c
does.
John Grady knew that.
And so, crushing back the pain that
was taking his life, he called out to his
mother to say that he was not badly
hurt. "There is no cause for alarm.
mavonreen," said John Grady to his
little old Irish mother. And then-
Seeing the look of maternal anguish.
he thought of his mother's favorite song. She had sung It to him in his cradle. Often they had suns it to
gether.
To prove to her that there was no
reason to be concerned about him he
Btarted to sing the old melody.
Trivial ? Under ordinary circum
stances trivial, but now it was the out
burst of the holiest Impulse a boy can
know. Surely the angels in heaven must have heard and changed that
roistering song into a paean of praise.
The song faltered ceased.
Somehow Grady's voice would break
In spite of him; the brave Hps twitched; the light died out of the boy's blue
eyes.
Well? How better could a boy die?
It is not so bard to be a hero when
the elbow of your comrade touches yours and the flag snaps over your
head in the thrill of a charge, or when the crowd cheers you up the ladder to
