FRAMING THE PLATFORM. I riioci a! ii- clitics have t ricii 10 poke fun at the n'iMiaH.v I'limpifht'ds-iM' plans beins made this year r the frainins: of the republican national platform, r t.o:i to iio found, perhaps in the fact that deniorati ciif not in the habit of taking their own platortiis terioiisly. A platform, to their own mind, is so., i deal like the street ear nductor"s definition: Sntjit thins to pot in on. not to stand on."' One is re- " ;"i of the 'lank calling for a single term of the ?es'i .! ucy and other principles laid down by the demr.Ts in recent national platforms which may hive theni to "'tret, in cn" hut which they certainly "il no. ' irfand on" after the election. The advisory committee on policies and platform of republican natioiml committee has sent out its

first ijupstionnaire to leatling republicans, asking their views on important suggestions. Some of tlie questions are: "Did you approve the passage of the federal farm loan act? Did you approve the passage of the federal reserve act? Do you believe the federal government thould license till corporations organi.ed for profit and engaged in interstate commerce? Assuming that child labor should be regulated, should such regulation he extended as a federal function or should it be eeloped more largely by the states? Should the federal government have a housing policy and assist by providing model homes for wage earners? Do you approve extension of the policy of federal aid to education in the several states and. if so, to what extent and in what particular directions? The trend if these inquiries is obvious. The question of increasing centralization of federal powers is- one of the most important of the day. And the country looks to the republican party for a vigorous declaration of sanely progressive polities. STICKING BY WILSON. That the "wets." backed by the beer interests, are going to cause trouble in the San Francisco convention is tolerably clear, but the big split is going to come on a question of the Americanism of the democratic party, stys the Fort Wayne News. That clement still servile to the Wilson despotism will stand fast by the president and his treaty notions, while those democrats who still believe in a sovereign American republic and in the prompt conclusion of a formal peace with American independence reserved in the league

covenant will march with Mryan, Cock ran, Hoke Smith anil other great leaders of the party out of whom Mr. Wilson has been unable to beat and choke all sentiments of Americanism.

CROWN POINT NEWS Happening Of A Day In Lake County's Lively Capital.

PROGRESSIVE EVERBEARING STRAWBERRY PLANTS

INSISTED UPON UNCERTAINTY. The Savannah Press, democratic, declares that "The President made it 'perfectly clear to the senators in the Whi'e House conference last August that tariff, labor and immigration were questions with which the league could net interfere." This prompts the .Macon. Georgia News, also a democratic paper, to remark that if is a fundamental principle of law that parole evidence is inadmissible to contradict or vary the terms of a written instrument, which every laywer knows. If it were true that these were subjects concerning which the league could have nothing to do. why should the president objects to having it so written in the covenant.
