Oal tta flmi at i Inn mart n THE ANTI-SALOON LEAGUE AND COUNTY OPTION It is significant that no sooner had the State Supreme Court handed down a favorable decision on the legality of the county local option law than storm arose. Ennis H. Barney, super lntendent of the thirty-one counties of the Indianapolis district, has resigned because he could not agree with W. E S. Shumaker as to prohibition. The latter believes that the time is right for a state wide prohibitory measure. It has not been long since it was an flounced by the radical side of the league, that county local option is a "failure," because certain Massachusetts towns which had voted dry have voted wet and vice versa. This point of view is not shared by the liquor dealers and liberal forces who view county local option as a most success ful method of destroying their business and in which they rarely see any jus tice. If it be that the middle ground is apt to be the true one it is sad, but somewhat convincing that the radicals of holh sirioa urn nnf catlcfla1 n-ith county local option. If we are to have regulation of the liquor business it would seem that we have a pretty complete method of reg ulation. The places where the saloons have behaved theniRelves are still be having themselves. The places where the saloon has provoked popular dis approval, the saloon no longer pro vokes. And in those places where the saloon is not altogether pleasing, but where it is tolerated as an institution and individually disliked in the rest dence district-the individual is re moved. This being so, it would seem that Indiana comes very near to satisfying the majority of the people. The ex tremists on the opposing sides are not pleased, If a majority of the people of the counties want the saloon elimi nated they will be eliminated. The Anti-Saloon league is unwise to find fault with the most successfully working law we have had, simply because all the counties do not go dry. By letting the matter rest and working under the ample provisions of the law they will turn the state dry more effectually than by introducing in amendment to the constitution phohibItlng the liquor business. That even In event of its successful issue wouli be so drastic that the inevitable reac tion would set In. The great mass of the people, thosa who want a hand in settling the ques tion for themselves, will not look kind ly on either the brewers nor the antisaloon forces if they openly admit that they are not willing to allow them to decide this themselves under the present law. County local option, apart from the fact that 't is a matter of controvery, because It is applied to the liquor question, is doing good in another way. It is the initiative and referendum, and as such will sooner or later be applied to all sorts of questions first in municipal government witness the Des Moines Plan dealing with franchises. Next with all state laws and finallyit is to be hoped with natural subjects. No amount of argument from fanatics on either side can shake the value of submitting questions to a vote This is a much greater force for good than statutory prohibition followed by a reaction and law evasions. Dr. Cook will continue to observe. Mr. Hanly is still on the Chautauqua lists. And as for regulation, it does that effectively in wet counties doesn't it? There will be great sorrow in the Kongo and in Paris. Le rot est mort! No one expected the Standard to be

quite pleased and agreeable about the decision.

President Taft thinks that the date of Inauguration ought to be changed. Let us not comment. Mr. Watson says that Mr. Cannon will not resign. This is, of course, authoritative, but it was to be anticipated. Hems Gathered in From Far and Near Red Cross Stamps. You remember how popular those "white plague" Christmas stamps were last holiday time how people bought the entire issue of 25,000,000 and clamored for more. Well, it was Miss Mabel T. Boardman who conceived that Idea, and it will be due to her efforts, in part, at least, that many more millions of these stamps, of a new design, will be offered for sale during the coming Christmas season. Miss Boardman will be the unofficial social arbiter of the white house this winter. She has long been a particularly close and intimate friend of both the president and Mrs. Taft. contrary to most of her predecessors, has no social secretary. Her long residence in Washington, which has covered most of her married life, placed her much more familiarly in touch with society personages and usages peculiar to the social life of the capi tal than any of the first ladies of the land who have graced the white house in a generation. Miss Boardman is a sister-in-law of Senator Murray Crane, of Massachusetts. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wil liam J. Boardman, are wealthy. Their home in Washington has long been renowned as a meeting place for interesting persons, and for the warm and boundless hospitality dispensed there. Mr. Taft, who is president of the National Red Cross society, interested Miss Boardman in the work several years ago. With energy, intelligence and tact characteristic of the American girl who starts out to do things. Miss Boardman virtually breathed the breath of life into the Red Cross society after the confusion into which its affairs fell during the Spanish war. Mainly through her efforts, the society was reorganized and placed upon a highly efficient and prosperous basis. When the news of the Messina earthquake reached Washington Miss Boardman, within a half hour, took prompt action for the relief of the sufferers. In recognition of her work the Italian government decorated her with a reproduction in gold of an ancient Roman civic crown. It was bestowed through the Italian ambassador in Washington. Miss Boardman has a desk in the offices of the Red Cross society in the war de partment in Washington. Except for a few weeks in summer she is there daily from morning until all of the work in sight is disposed of. Supreme Court Ways. (St. Louis Star.) When the supreme court of the United States assembles at 12 o'clock on each Monday the room is filled with lawyers, clerks, newspaper men and spectators. Routine announcements are made by the chief justice in a voice no one can understand. Decisions of great moment are rendered by other justices in mumbled words which are not heard. Lawyers, clerks. newspaper men, and spectators stare hard at the honorable justice who may be talking or reading, some with hands curved into a round board so that they can catch a few words if possible. But no one in the courtroom shouts "Louder!" No one would last very long if he did. And should a person be sentenced for con tempt of the supreme court it would be tbe end. As an old colored em ploye once said: "Dere ain't no appeal from dis cote 'cept to God Almighty." PILES CURED IN 6 TO 14 DAYS PAZO OINTMENT is guaranteed to cure any case of Itching, -Blind, Bleed ing or Protruding Piles in 6 to 14 days or money refunded. 50c. BEVERIDGE IS HOME During Holiday Visit He Will Draft Alaskan Government Bill. BESET BY PLUM HUNTERS Indianapolis, Dec. IS. Senator Al bert J. Beveridge returned from Washington yesterday and upon his appearance at his office was immediately beset by politicians interested in the appointment of this or that man to a postmastership at this or that place. The senator came home to remain until after the holidays. While here he will draft the administration's bill for the government of Alaska in line with the recommendations in the president's message. Before leaving Washington Senator Beveridge had a long conference with President Taft relative to conditions In Alaska and the senator's ideas oa the government PILES CURED AT DOSE BY DEW ADSORPTIOn UETIIOD.

Murphy asserts ho has sufficient pledges to oust the head of the State Democratic committee, a claim disputed by Connors. Albany friends of Murphy say as soon as he has a majority of the fifty-one votes he will call a meeting of the committee to oust Connors and put in Francis Malloy of Rensselaer county or Robert Chanler of Duchess count v. of the territory and those of the president are the same.

legislative powers and is opposed to a territorial legislature. Will Work on Bill. Senator Beveridge will work out the bill very carefully. He will spend most of his time at his home working on the bill and doing some literary work. Senator Beveridge has a joint rtsolution pending in congress to appropriate $100,000 for surveying routes for the proposed ship canal to connect Lake Erie with Lake Michigan by way of Ft. Wayne. Senator Beveridge and his office force are gradually wording out the many post office appointments that are to be made by the senator. Independent investigations are being made in each instance. TWINKLES The Unrealized Ideal. My only Love is always near, In country or in town; I see her twinkling feet, I hear The whisper of her gown. She foots it ever fair and young, Her locks are tied in haste, And one is o'er her shoulder flung And hangs below her waist. She ran before me in the meads. And down this world-worn track She leads me on, but while she leads She never gazes back. And yet her voice is in my dreams, To witch me more and more; That wooing voice! Ah me, it seems Less near me than of yore. Lightly I sped when hope was high And youth beguiled the chase I follow, follow still; but I Shall never see her face. Frederick Locker-Lampson. An Old Love Song. Ask not how much 1 love thee; Do not question why, I have told thee the tale In the evening pale. With a tear and a sigh. I told theo, when Love was hopeless But now he is wild, and sings That the stars above Shine ever on love. Though they frown on the fate of kings. O a king would have loved and left thee, And away thy sweet love cast; But I am thine while the stars shall shine. To the last to the last! Barry Cornwall. When Sorrow Says Good-by. Dark sky above me never gleam of light; Yet, with one to love me. Sorrow sighs "Good-night!" Fortune has not found me, fame was swift to fly; Yet, Love's arms are 'round me, Sorrow says. "Good-by!" Heed no sky above you, fear no fall of Night; These sweet words: "I love you!"' fill the world with light. Frank L. Stanton. The old brownstone fronts of residences and apartment houses in Manhattan are sometimes cleansed, but the brick and whitestone fronts which supplanted the brownstone fad are susceptible of being renewed in appearance by white paints, and this accounts for the singular appearance of Madison avenue, where, of late, many of the fronts have been whitened, while other remain dingy. Until within the last ten or fifteen years no owner of a nous in New York city ever thought of haveing his house painted on the outside. New York World. MASONIC CALENDAR.

(s fit, 1908, by Edwin A. Nye IS MARRIAGE A LOTTERY? Yes, marriage is a lottery. In tbe drawing are both prizes and blanks. Everything in mortal life is more cr less uncertain, and the uncertainty of marriage makes it a game in which there is hazard. However There is this difference between a lottery and the marriage venture tbe lottery has only a few prizes and many blanks; marriage has some blanks, but many prizes. Perhaps marriage would better be compared to tbe irrigation land drawings now so common in the west. Where tbe land is nearly all level and the water supply sure one tract of land is about as good as another. Only a comparatively few are undesirable. And so One may, even with tbe best precaution, sometimes draw an undesirable mate in the matrimonial lottery. No one can predict the future. But Tbe marriage game would be less of a gamble were there less deception before marriage. Possibly it is true that in most cases young men and women do not deliberately set out to deceive each other during the days of courting, but it often amounts to that. Each "puts the best foot forward" tbe best side out. So that there is more or less a veil between the two sometimes a veil of romance or illusion, sometimes a reil that is deliberately drawn. Is it any wonder under such con ditions that somebody draws the booby prize? Perhaps the young people think they know each other when they are absolutely ignorant of each other's temperament, habits and characteristics. The man Is lured by an attractive figure or pretty face; the girl takes the man absolutely on faith. Is It strange that only by a lucky chance such a. marriage should turn out well? Young man. young womanBuild your future happluess on nothIU ,esB luan aosoiuie personal snowi- , , a, - . i "l 3"mr ,u,ruueu sireugm ana Do not risk your lifelong hWines on good looks or such other suiy reasons. Marriage la a lottery because it is shrcuderi mor or Iprb In mvntcrr. Love is blind often too blind. And so people go Into the grab bag drawing, win or lose, some by a marvel of chance to draw a capital prize and others only a marital gold brick. Yes. marriage is a lottery. More's the pity! . . - DR. W. R. MAYO, Specialist WILL BE AT Richmond Central Hotel Wednesday, Dec. 22d, And Every Four Weeks Thereafter.

HAD HIGH PURPOSE Vienna, Dee. IS. Accused of forging notes, two people have been acquitted under curious circumstances by the Vi enna courts. Hans Hofek, a poor medical student, was making researches into the cause of malaria in the swampy districts of the Danube. He often went without food to buy his instruments, but achieved valuable discoveries, finding the actual malaria baccillus. His work, however, came to a standstill for lack of funds, and he became desperate. In his determination to get money somehow, he forged a number of ."WMironen (4lo notes, which were circulated by his friend Fraulein von Kurz, who kept a tobacco store. Both were acquitted, the jury's reason being that "the forgery was com
