BURDSALL 4, JOURNALISTIC ANONYMITY In a paper read by T. P. O'Connor, who Is about to invade the United States, at the recent conference of the International Association of the Press, held in London, and published in his weekly, the distinguished editor holds out strongly against "anonymity in journalism," maintaining that the editorial or feature writer is entitled to the credit of having his name appear signed to his articles. This contention will doubtless apply much better to British journals, an-d he so applies it, then to American newspapers, where the paper itself is respon sible for the views expressed therein unless it does not care to undertake such fatherhood. Mr. O'Connor, woo is a contributor to several newspapers, is writing from a purely personal standpoint He says that the only argument he has ever heard in favor of the unsigned article is that a . newspaper is a corporate body, with traditions, policy, many minds, many wills, and that Its lead ing article could not properly be regarded as an act of an individual, but that it ought to be regarded as the act and expression of corporation For his own side of the case, he says: There Is no school where worthy or talented men learn more of the real ities of life than the school Qf journ allsm. .The journalist Uvea so to speak In the , greenroom of the world's stage. ; In the law courts, in the police courts, at the inquests, in the corridors of legislative assemblies, they see. life clear and whole; and they ough, above all other professions, to te the devotees of reality and sincerity. Reality and sincerity will never be truly attained till journalism ceases to cover itself with the mask of anonymity; end gets rid of the ridiculous and stupid pretense that its articles are the emanation of some Dalai Lama and not of the individual, clever or stupid, honest or insincere, wise or foolish, who writes the article. Mystery is next door to mendacity. He holds that the unsigned article is one of the worst examples of the subjugation of the Individual to the glorification and enrichment of capital, and as such that it belongs to an epoch which he is glad to hope is passing away. In this country the name of the writer of an article, even in a magazine, where such articles are signed, appears to be a matter of little importance. The message of his pen or his typewriter is, like the play "the thing" and the circulation It receives

ACHIEVEMENTS OF AN EXPLORER Barrlll has faithfully followed my Instructions. ' He was told to inform, the enemy that I had been far, far up, but not to reveal the fact that I had reached the summit On leaving Barrill, at the 10,000 foot level, I pushed on to the to palone. The last 2,000 feet represent the most difficult exploit In my career. I was forced to bite holeB in the glacier, step by step, to obtain footholds. Those holes are there now. Let any one who doubU my word go and find them! But, on second thought, I think I will send at my own expense, and have a few of the holes brought back. Never shall I forget the wonderful panorama that encircled me as at last I stood on the summit. Around on every hand the pale, purple skies, with a peculiar greenish sun shining through, converted the eternal snows into an endless field of deep lavender, while far to the south the faint pink rays of the equator shed a glorious lustre over all. I descended. My data is all sufficient I prepared it myself. It will be ready in two years. But, in accordance with my agreement, it must first be submitted to the Society of Royal and Ancient Mountain Climbers of Tasmania. After terrible hardships during which I was forced to eat nearly all of my Instruments, I at length reached Winnipeg. Here I met a man named Thmpson or was it Johnson? who keeps a small shoe store at the junction of a side street and a cross Btreet. He has the proof. He knows I reached the summit of Mount McKinley. I told him so. I have every confidence that he will one day visit the United States and furnish all the proof that any one could ask. My faith in the American public is still unshaken. N. Y. Times. Items Gathered in From Far and Near For Clean Food. From the Chicago News. More than a dozen restaurant companies and catering firms have begun suit to enjoin the city health department from enforcing the bakeshop ordinance. This measure authorizes the health commissioner to refuse to issue licenses for existing cellar bakeries that are unclean and ill ventilated and forbids the establishment of new kitchens entirely below the street level. Through legal technicalities these concerns may prevent the enforcement of the ordinance, but they cannot hope to resist successfully reasonable regulation by the city of the conditions under which is prepare-d the food they serve to their patrons. That the people, demand cleanliness in food and sanitary surroundings for those who prepare it was demonstrated conclusively a few years ago in the packing house clean-up.

France Now Has a New Hero
(By La Voyageuse.)
(American News Service) Paris, Oct 16. In General Tremeau, the new head of the French army, the Impressionable and volatile people of France have found a new hero before whom to prostrate themselves, for, unlike the ill-fated General Boulanger, a hero whose feet turned out to be clay, or the late General de Gaullifet, who was at once a martinet of the strictest type and a noted admirer of ladies. General Tremeau is a soldier whos.? entire life and thoughts are devoted to military affairs. In addition to this, like De Gallifet, be possesses leonine courage. The public is now talking admiringly of a recent incident in which General Tremeau was the principle figure. He is six and a half feet in height has a commanding presence and an unusually piercing eye, which alike "looks through" an Individual or along the columns of a regiment, noting instantly the good points or such defects as may be apparent. Not long ago, following his promotion, duty required him to visit a garrison town not far from Paris which is noted for having a population in which there are many socialists who are opposed to military rule. Upon arriving at the railroad station he was met by a heavy detachment of troops. In addition an immense crowd of townspeople were present and among them a number of violent socialists who did not hesitate to show their hatred of the soldiery, even to the length of threatening an attack. When General Tremeau appeared they began to Jeer and a few threw stones and armed themselves with sticks. Threats were made that dynamite booms would be thrown if the troops made a hostile demonstration. Ordering his aides and escort to remain behind, he walked directly up to the leaders of the mob, stopped within a few feet, folded his arms and gazed at them fixedly for more than five minutes, as if challenging them to attack. A dead silence' followed. After watching the crowd contemptuously, the General turned on his heel, walked to his horse, mounted and rode away folded up the back-number newspaper he was reading. "In what way?" "It sounded exactly like one o' these controversies, but it wasn't." The Frigidly Fortunate. The Eskimo's a happy man, Though at the arctic winter's mercy. He eats his peaceful pemmlcan And dodges all the controversy. A Question Resented. "Were you ever arrested before?" asked the magistrate, whose principal business is imposing fines for speeding. ' "What do you think I've been doing all these years?" asked the chauffeur, "pushing a wheelbarrow?" Miss Autumn. Ol' Miss Autumn boun' to lose her - temper some; She sort o gits to grievln an' her manner's mighty glum.

RALSTOII CHOICE OF TAGGABT FOR STATE CHAIRMAN
Wily Tom With Backing of ; Brewers Hopes to Repay j His Political Debt Created at Last Nomination. HAS EYE ON PLATFORM OF PARTY IN THE STATE But Governor Marshall Does Not Want County Local Option Law Changed and a Conflict May Thus Result. (Palladium Special) Indianapolis, Ind., Oct 18. It was stated in these dispatches a few days' ago that several conferences had been held In the city during the past week between Thomas Taggart, Samuel M. Ralston. Joseph Reiley, Steve Fleming and other democratic leaders of the state. It was stated also that while none of these men would admit hat they were here for that purpose, it was the general understanding that they came to town for the purpose of laying plans to capture the state organization and to control the campaign of next year. This has been borne out by the developments of the last day or two, for it is learned now that there is a plan on foot for the Taggart element of the democratic party to bring Ralston out as its candidate for the state chairmanship. Ralston is one of Taggart's favorites among the party workers of the state. When Ralston was a candidate for the nomination for Governor last year he received the support of Taggart and his crowd, and at the convention Ralston was in the lead with more votes than any other candidate when it became apparent that if be remained in the race he would be overtaken by L. Ert Slack of Franklin, and that Slack would probably defeat him. So at that critical moment Ralston did the al most unheard of thing. Taggart passed the word around that Ralston woul l withdraw from the race on the next ballot and that all of his vote should go to Thomas R. Marshall In order to defeat Slack, who had been fighting the Taggart crowd bitterly. Ralston then withdrew when he still had more votes than any other candidate. .This Is the way Marshall was nominated. Taggart Dines Ralston. So now when the talk has become common that Ralston is Taggart's choice for state chairman, it is not creating any surprise, for it is pointed out that Taggart owes Ralston something for becoming the martyr to Taggart's ambition to beat Slack. This is not the first time Ralston has carried the Taggart banner. He was J the democratic nominee for secretary j of state in 1S0S and went down to dej feat with the rest of his ticket He also has served as chairman of the democratic state convention, and in 100(5 he made the keynote speech of ; the state campaign for the democrats, ' in which he made a bitter personal attack on Governor Hanly. ; It is true that Ralston is regarded as ' one of the big men of the party in Indiana, and yet he has never bad a thing from the party in the way of an office, although the party has tried several times, with his consent to land him. The story that has now developed from the conferences held last weel; is that the Taggart crowd. Including ' the brewers, is to make a strenuous effort to control not only the next state committee, but also the state convention, in order to make sure that the right kind of a platform will be adopted and the right kind of candidates be nominated. Shively and Shea. Another feature of the story about Ralston as a candidate for state chairman is. that he has behind him the support of Senator Shively and Judg Joseph H. Shea, of Seymour, who are known as the "university crowd." Shively and Shea are both members of the board of trustees of Indiana University, and the university crowd has been mighty active in politics in this state in the last few years, in both parties. Shea was the campaign manager of Shively last year when the latter was a candidate for the senatorship to succeed Hemenway. Shea had no difficulty In lining up the Crawford Fairbanks support and the support of other elements In the party for Shively, and it was currently reported that in return for this support the Shea and Shively followers were to vote to repeal the local option law. "Whether such a deal was made or not, it turned out that way. Support of Brewers. If all of this is true, it Is declared. It means that the Ralston boom will also have the support of the brewers, who are hoping to control the reorganization of the state committee, as well as the organization of the convention. It is known that Governor Marshall and many others of the party leaders are opposed to any declaration In the state platform on the liquor question. Last year Governor Marshall ran for governor on a platform that declared for township and ward local -option Instead of county local option, and he was elected on that platform. Since the democratic plain failed to carry, however, it is known also that Governor Marshall is not in favor of the repeal of the county option law. So he would be in an embarrassing position in case the state convention should declare for the repeal of that act He would either have to ge out and stump the state In favor of a proposition to,

which he was opposed or he would have to keep still and do nothing. So it is easy to understand why he don not want the convention to make any declaration on the subject. The brewery people at this time do not favor la substitution of ward and township units for the county unit They do not agree to any kind of local option. What they want now Is a high license restrictive law, which will allow saloons to be established and conducted wherever the people fall to remonstrate them out Great Secrecy Maintained. So, the candidacy of Ralston for the state chairmanship, under the guiding hand of Taggart, la attracting some attention. Great secrecy was maintained by Taggart Ralston and the other leaders who attended the little conferences here last week as to the subject under consideration. " Crawford Fairbanks said they were merely talking over the discovery of the north pole by Dr. Cook. But the real ctor finally leaked out Unquestionably, Taggart is starting in to play a strong game for the control of the state committee, since be has found that Governor Marshall and the rest of the leaders of the party who believe there should be a new deal in the party management have undertaken to wrest the control of the state organization from him. It is not known who will be brought out by the Marshall crowd In opposition to Ralston for chairman, but the work cf organizing for the contest for control goes merrily on.
