MORE BUNCOMBE. .
As. we have remarked before and as we may remark again, the Ameri
can people are fed a vast amount of buncombe duricg any given year, says the Lafayette Journal. Now comes Governor Marshall to the front with
the state that he is deeply grieved because Judge Remster saw fit to ques
tion tne constitutionality of the proposed new constitution. The governor
opines as follows:
"As long as the idle, dissolute, corrupt, purchasable and ignorant con
tinue to be a factor in the state's political affairs, the people can not hope to have a good government, whether respresentative or democratic. The prime purpose of the legislature and myself in presenting this document was to cleanse the ballot in Indiana. The soverign people of the state are in a. sorry condition of law when they are unable to determine whether
they can exclude such class of voters from the electoral franchise."
Mr. Marshall solicitude for the purity of the ballot and the welfare
of Indiana is really beautiful. We conclude that for the same lofty reason the proposed constitution was rushed through the legislature under the
caucus whip and approved by Tom Taggart, Crawford Fairbanks and other patriots who believe that Indiana citizenship needs a guardian. Had the
condition had no opposition the democratic managers would have pointed with pride to the great reforms accomplished and promised. As everyone knows the new constitution was a political measure, a party scheme. Free
discussion was not allowed; amendments were not tolerated. But the gov
ernor weepB because his lofty desire to save the citizenship of Indiana has run against the law. To the making of buncombe there is no-end and the
people are expected to keep on believing.

"But the farmer's wife is great in my eyes because she is near the soil and because usually she believes In raising large families.

"One of the most vital problems with which the farmer's wife has to do Is how to shorten the farmer's work day.

In that rough ugly, unfertile bit of ground by the stoop, we have tried to make many things grow. Nasturtiums, pansies, geraniums and a rose bush we have planted there from time to time.

And then we planted a slip of the blue-eyed Susan, and instead of sulking and fading. It thrived and flourished and blossomed and spread until soon that ugly scar In our garden was quite healed.
