Our esteemed contemporary, The Sun-Telegram, seems to be worried about the decorations' in the Coliseum. Because President Roosevelt's picture is small and hung among other distinguished Republicans, the Democratic
on-an asks of the Republicans are
It is not diflicult to get a Democrats' idea of the issue in the cam
paign of 1904, for that party intends
and nothing will please the Republicans better. Roosevelt's party is proud
of him as a man and will not find much trouble in defending his record if
it needs any defense. A large picture of Roosevelt, we be here on next Thursday night at the Wavne County. No, the Republican party will not
of its records. Every body knows where Mr. Roosevelt stands. They knew it before the convention that nominated him was held and he has not changed since. When Judge Parker was nominated, he sent a telegram saying that "the gold standard is irrevocably established" but he did ot ome say: "I indorse the gold standard." He dodged the issue. He can say to the people of New York and the East: "See my telegram," it "irrevocably" settles my policy. He can say to the people of Colorado and the West: "See my telegram. Did I indorse the gold standard?" "I said Hnly that it was irrevocably settled." This is dodging the issue and is the worst kind of straddling. Judge Parker declared that he would not be a candidate for a second twm. Would it not be a good idea to get the first term before throwing away the second?
A county institute in the woods and under a tent is something unique as well as original. It is an environment where nature and culture meet for the uplifting of the individuals who are to preside over the Wayne fcounty schools. Superintendent Jordan is to be congratulated on this innovation in county institutes.
The cantata rendered by the Dayton choir yesterday at the Chautauqua was thoroughly enjoyed by those present, but it was a little too long for a second number on a program. It would have been much better could a whole evening have been devoted to it. Richmond will welcome this choir airain.
The Democrats insist that the Republican convention was a cut and dried affair. Yes, but the cutting and drying was done by the people and not by a few hungry Democratic politicians in the back room of August Turnout's Wall Street office.
Dr. Vincent's first lecture to the teachers this morning was an inspiration. It is a foretaste of something the teachers need and they should not mis a word uttered bv such a distinguished scholar.
LOCAL POLITICS What is Doing Among the Political , ' Bodies. The Republican Speakers' Bureau today announced the first list of campaign speakers for the state. Only one date is mentioned for Richmond and that is Hon. Joseph G. Cannon, September 1. Now that the young Republicans have an organization, of fifty charter members, prospects are that the number will be increased to three times that many. With Mr. Byram C. Robbins as president and Mr. A. C. Huey as secretary-treasurer, only success can come to the .organization. Some persons are under the impression that it is a first-voter's organization. That is not true. It is intended for all young Republicans. A drum corps will be organized for the Cannon meeting. Another meeting will be held soon and committees will be named in each ward to secure new members. I he Coliseum was well patronized by the ladies Saturday and all expressed pleasure at the neatness of the decorations. ' Large pictures of President Roose velt and Senator Fairbanks were or dered some time ago. They have not yet arrived. The only large picture j in the hands of the committee was that of the late President Garfield. The immense picture of President Roosevelt used during the last campaign could not bo found. r Do You Want a Home? If so, the elegant residence corner of Main and Twenty-first streets, must be sold during the next 30 days. An existing encumbrance of $5,000 at 5 per cent, can run for years, with privilege of pre-payment. We want a cash offer for the equity the greatest kind of a bargain can be secured; prompt attention given all inquiries. A. J. VAN DEINSE & CO. i i r- ,sv v -Indianapolis. Ind.

Muncie, Ind., August 29. More than 10,000 barrels of oil are being pumped daily from the Muncie and Parker City oil fields. Then thou sand dollars a day for a year amounts to $3,650,000. For the sake of being conservative, cut $Go0,000 from that I amount. There remains the not insigniheant sum of $3,000,000. If the statements of "runs" by the Standard Oil company are reliable, and no one has ever questioned their authenticity, that amount will represent, in a fair way, the production of the J fields named during the coming year. The Pennsylvania oil fields have been pumping from twenty to thirty years, and the end is not yet. The older Indiana oil districts have pro duced for fifteen years and the field 1 ii is not dry. In fact it is believed by oil men that the life of an oil field is about that of a gas field. There is every reason for believing, therefore, that the Elodado of western oil districts, the Delaware and Randolph counties' field, will yield its rich treasures for many years. And the field is in its infancy. The first flush of the "wildcatting fever" is just disappearing and speculation is onl3T beginning to be conservative. There are riea Pls of tlie precious lmid unexplored richer, perhaps, than any now drilled in. As one oil man expressed it yesterday. "The field has just been 'scratched,' it has not been developed." Excursion Fares to Dayton via Pennsylvania Lines. September 5 to 9, inclusive, excursion tickets to Dayton, account of the Montgomery county fair, will be sold via Pennsylvania lines from Richmond, Springfield, London, Morrow, and intermediate stations. Call on local tieket agent for particulars. Dr. and Mrs. J. Norman Croker, of tChicago, arrived 3u, Sunday afternoon to spend thejrjjnnixal vacation ftjjih relatives' and friends- here.

(Continued From First Page.) acteristics of genius, the first of these is that a genius never . works for money, io illustrate this characteris tic he referred to Edison as never knowing the value of his inventions an dto Turner, the painter, as beininterested not for the sake of the money his pictures would command, but for the love of his work. A second characteristic of genius is the power one has of loosing him self in his work. Shelley was here cited as belonging to this class. A kind of duality was another char acteristic pointed out, and this was possessed to a very great extent bv Hawthorne. There were really two T r . t l t uawtiiornes, ne . sani, one was dreamy, broody and melancholy, while the other was practical, lively and industrious. In speaking of fiction, he placed it under two heads, the novel and romance. The novel deals with the acatul existence of things, with the normal state of affairs. The romance with the unnatural, with that which g-oes a little Devond the real. The novel is the prose, while ro mance is the poetry of fiction. Mr. Speed's lecture, which begun at 10 o'clock, was on the spider and brought out many interesting and remarkable traits of this little creature. Many children and young people occupied the front seats and were deI lighted as they always are with what Mr. Speed has to present. Although hese little animals seem to possess the power of thought yet he says such is never the case. In referring to the works of Seton and Jack Lon don, the speaker said, "many things about these animals here represented are true, but to give to these beings of nature the power of thought is only transpiring to them the thoughts that ?xist'in the minds of the author." At the close of the lecture Mr. Speed spent a few minutes on snakes, iljustratng much he had to say by a live snake which he held in his hand. Time was given for questions, presented by the audience. These brought out many interesting points about the two animals under discussion. Mr. Schaffer began his first insti tute lecture at 11 o'clock, on the es sential needs of a school curriculum. The speaker regards it necessary that one should know how to read, write and calculate, to be best adjusted to the present civilization. He gave several steps in the progress of civilization, stating, however, that these did not give rise to the school, but that its existence was brought about by a desire to express our thoughts in written words, and to come into possession of the thoughts of others. These two things involve writing and reading Warned to Keep Out (By Associated Press.) Cripple Creek, Colo., August 29 A. G. Leduce was taken from the deputy sheriffs by an armed mob.

Gn"AT SPEAKING CAMPAIGN
Indiana Win Ee Fevered by HighCfast; Oratory. Indianapcl's. in;. 2?. The fw bulletin o: assignments for the speakcampaign was issied today by Chairman C. C. Lyons of the speakersbureau of the Republican state committee. The campaign is to be opened without the formality of fixing a data for a general getaway. This is a new plan for the Republicans, but it meets with the approval of Chairman Goodrich and other managers of the campaign. The Republicans, according to Chairman Lyons, will have one of the greatest speaking campaigns in re cent years. Every section of the state Is to be covered. J. Frank Hanly. candidate for governor, and Sen-.tor Beveridge, candidate -for re-election, will speak in practically every countv, while there will be an hundred others' from, this state in addition to the notable speakers who will be sent to Indiana by the national committee. The Democrats will also make a greater speaking campaign than in the last two election years, so it is reasonable to predict that some records will be broken. The arrangements will be so thorough on each side that there will not be much chance for a continuance of apathetic conditions. Robert E. Mansfield, consul to Valparaiso, Chili, who has returned to Indiana to spend sixty days, says that John K. Gowdy, consul general at Paris, will not return to Indiana to participate in the campaign, as was rumored some time ago. Gowdy, he declares, has secured a leave of absence, but he will utilize it traveling In Europe. Although the Republican leaders here are proud of the fine record Gowdy has made in the diplomatic service, there is a feeling that he has held the present position long enough, and unless he voluntarily retires your correspondent is able to state on good authority that Republican leaders in this state will protest vierorouslv against his reappointment. It is rumored that Chairman Goodrich of the state committee would like to be appointed, but his friends say that he is in no way a candidate for it and that he has no desire for a position that would take him out of the country. A representative of one of the large voting machine companies said today there is a good reason why machines are not in more general use in Indiana. The tickets, he said, are so long that it requires an unwieldy machine that the companies do not care to make and guarantee. Until the election laws are changed to shorten the ticket he does not look for a general adoption of machines, for the companies will not care for the business under the present conditions. Vigo is the only county that has purchased machines, although the legislature for the last four years has been working out a voting machine law. The voting machine agent said that the ticket here this time will have sixty names on it. .One or two states have forty names On the ticket, but most states have less than thirty. Hence the companies are going after their business flrst. Newton Booth Tarkington, tie author, is to be "the Gentleman from Indiana in name only, it seems, for he is now arranging to return to New York to spend the winter. He has just arrived here from his long European tour. He intends to retain his residence here, but his work will take him to New York for tv - next six months, as he says he " .s been en gaged to write a play. CAUSE OF IRELAND Its Advancement Being Sought by Distinguished Visitors. New York, Aug. 29. John E. Redmond, the Irish leader, and those who came to America with him, Captain A. J. C. Donelan, Patrick O'Brien, Connor O'Kelly and Mrs. Redmond, were tenJOHN REDMOND. dered a reception last night In Carnegie hall by the New York municipal council of the United Irish League of America. Mr. Redmond, Captain Donelan, Mr. O'Brien, Mr. O'Kelly and W. Bourke Cockran spoke. Ten thousand dollars was either subscribed or paid In cash toward the fund for carrying th Irish movement on. Hill Has Had Enough. Albany, N. Y., Aug. 29. David B. Hill in conversation with friends here Sunday, announced that he intends to retire from politics Jan. 1 next, and that no matter what the result of the coming campaign may be in state or nation, he will relinquish the leaderShip of the Democratic party in New York. He added that in the event of Democratic success this fall he would not accept any position under the national or state Democratic administrations or again become;, candidate for lection to nv office whate
