For. how could Wayne remain consistent to its principle and support Woodfill, a standpatter, proof of which la apparent by his standpat vote on the resolutions adopted at the Rnshvllle convention last February? - ' You attack Mr. Morgan, the member on resolutions from Wayne, who dared fight to the last ditch for the very things you have been professing to be for, in your paper, the Item. You even go so far as to misrepresent him when you state, "yet when the trial came-to, present1 a minority reporthe was as silent as the grave. Nay, even more, he' finally signed the1 committee's report himself, but not until after It bad been ratified by the convention!" You misrepresent because you intentionally give the Impression that Mr. Morgan acted of his own volition when as a matter of fact, as any member of the Wayne delegation will tell you, be did as the Wayne delegation ordered him to. Be surer of your fact next time, Mr. Foulke before you are so free with your accusations and misrepresentations. Also why would it not be a good thing for you to attend in person some of these conventions and assist your county in obtaining what it wants. Why do not you who preach to men their duty of safeguarding their ballot and their principles get Into the game by practicing what you preach. Be more of an active Insurgent and less of the kind that shouts loudly from a comfortable seat at home and never stirs from it even to attend a ward meeting. By the way, were you at the Sixth ward meeting last month, Mr. Foulke? Of course, Mr. Foulke, you are right in your accusation that I am young. I passed my 24th birthday in March. Yet. as you realize by this timethat is a falling if falling It be-Haat time will only, too soon remedy. And when that day comes I suppose the Mr Foulke of -that day Will be saying. "Leeds is too old. He ought to make way for a younger man." Really though, Mr. Foulke, "you are very hard to suit. It was only last fall at the governor's banquet, during the Festival, that you referred to yourself as the baby in the journalistic field in Richmond. As I said before, I do not want to be a boss. I only want to be a leader, one who obeys public sentiment and the demands of the people, not one who muzzles or smothers it, or one who dictates who candidates shall be. ' "' ' .: . ' And, last but not least, do you really believe Wayne did so badly on the resolutions before the Connersville convention? If so just compare the two planks on the tariff as contained in the Rushville and Connersville platforms. Furthermore, Mr. Foulke, I join with you in indorsing your slogan "No boss for Wayne County." And in keeping with that I pledge you and the people of the county that both through the columns of the Palladium and personally, I will continue to fight against graft and corruption, against franchise grabbers and against those who wish to prostitute the Republican party and use it to protect the selfish interests ot the great powers that prey.

Federal taovei nmient. It Is a. mistake to suppose that the Idea of federation in government originated with the f miners of the United States constitution. Long before the Philadelphia convention met federalism existed In Switzerland, and the Idea when adopted by the Swiss cantons was already an old one. The first
attempt at the federal union of states was made In Greece in the Instance of
the celebrated Achean and Aetolian
leagues (280 B. C), formed by the Greek' states to save themselves from
slavery to Macedon. New York American.

Cleaning Day At Indianapolis
MRS. F. W. STEPHENS.
April 0th was observed as cleaning
day in Indianapolis. The city health board requested the people that vacant lots, back yards, alleys and stables be cleaned in an effort to stop the Increase ot flies and other objectionable insects, f The police department cooperated with the health board in the
movement The patrolmen were supplied with blank notices to be delivered to householders whose premises needed
cleaning. The men were Instructed to make a house to house Inspection in
every district in the city and at places where a cleaning up was necessary,
blanks were filled out ordering the work done. The householder had ten
days In which to do the work and at
the end of that time if his premises were not in good -order a warrant would be Issued. Captain Kruger. who Instructed the men, said the
movement was merely one to make a
clean city from one end to the other.
and that not a house or lot In the city would be overlooked. . j The movement
was widespread and far surpassed in success the expectations ot those pro
moting it. Just as the interior of a house dis
closed the Inner life of a family, so do the home grounds reflect the fami

farts. April 23. Colonel Theodore
Rooserelt delivered the following ad
dress on "Citizenship In a Republic" at
the Sorbonne:
Strange and impressive associations rise in the mind of a man from the
new world who speaks before this au
gust body in this ancient institution
of learning. Before bis eyes pass the
shadows of mighty kings and warlike
nobles, of great masters of law and
theology.' Through the shining dust
of the dead centuries he sees crowded
figures that tell of the power and learning and splendor of times gone
by. and he sees also the Innumerable
host of humble students to whom
clerkship meant emancipation, to whom it was well nigh the only outlet
from the dark thraldom of the middle
.ages.
Today I shall speak to you on the
subject of individual citizenship, the one subject of vital Importance to you.
my , bearers, and to me and my coun
trymen. because you and we are citizens of great democratic republics, A
democratic republic such as each of ours an effort to 'realize in its full
sense government by. of and for the
people represents the most gigantic of all possible social experiments, the one fraught with greatest possibilities alike for good and for evil. The success of republics like yours and like ours means the glory and our
failure the despair ot mankind, and
for you and for us the question of the quality of the Individual citizen is supreme.
Te Succeed Be Good. With you here and with us in my
own home, in the long run. success or
failure will be conditioned upon the way in which the average man, the average woman, does his or her duty, first in the ordinary, everyday affairs of life and next lu those great occasional crises which call for the heroic virtues. The average citizen must be a good citizen If our republics are to succeed.
Let the man of learning, the man of lettered leisure, beware of that queer and cheap temptation to pose to himself and to others as the cynic, as the man who has outgrown, emotions and beliefs, the man to whom good and
evil are as one. The poorest way to face life is to face it with a sneer. There Is no more nn healthy being, no man less worthy of respect, than be who either really holds or feigns to
hold an attitude of sneering disbelief toward all that Is great, and lofty, whether in achievement or in that noble effort which, even if It fail, comes second to achievement. Shame on the man of cultivated taste who permits refinement to develop into a fastidiousness that unfits ; him for doing the rough work of a workaday world. Among the free peoples who govern themselves there is but a small field of usefulness open for the men of cloistered life who shrink from contact with their fellows. No Room For Slighter. Still less room is there for those who deride or slight what is done by those who actually bear the brunt of the day nor yet for those others who always profess that they would like to take action If only the conditions of life were not what they actually are. The man who does nothing cuts the same sordid figure in the pages of his
tory, whether be be cynic or fop or voluptuary. It is war worn Hotspur, spent with hard, fighting, be of the many errors and the valiant end. over whose memory we love to linger, not' over the memory of the young lord who "but for the vile guns would have been a soldier." The good man should be both a
strong and a brave man that is, be should be able to fight, he should be able to serve his country as a soldier
if the need arises. There are well meaning ; philosophers ; who declaim against the , unrighteousness of war. They are right only if they lay all
their emphasis upon the unrighteous
ness. War is a dreadful thing, and unjust war Is a crime against human
ity. But it Is such a crime because It
Is unjust, not because it Is war.
The choice most ever be in favor of
righteousness, and this whether : the
alternative be peace or whether the alternative be war. Tbe question must not be merely. Is there to toe peace or (war? The question most be. Is the right to prevail? Are the great laws ot righteousness once more to be fulfilled? And tbe answer from a strong and virile people must be "Yes." whatever the cost. Every honorable eCort should always be made to a void wag, just as every honorable effort should always be tad by the Individual In private life to keep out of a brawl, to keep out of trouble, bat no self respecting individual, no self respecting nation, can or ought to submit to wrocgFlaafcy. even more Important than ability to work, even more important than ability to fight at need, is it to renMmber that the chief of Ijlsealiiga far aoj nation tz tfesttt shl Iea.Te
heaping up of riches, no sensuous development of art and literature, can in any way compensate for the loss ot the great fundamental virtues, and of these great fundamental virtues tbe greatest Is the race's power to perpetuate the race. Man's Chief Duty. Character must show Itself in the man's performance both of tbe duty be owes himself and of the duty be owes the state. Tbe man's foremost duty Is owed to himself and his family, and be can do this duty only by earning money, by providing what is essential to material well being. It is only after this has been done that
he can hope to build a higher super-1 structure on the solid material foundation. It is only, after this has been i done that he can help in movements for the general well being. It Is not good to excite that bitter laughter which expresses contempt, and contempt Is what we feel tor the being whose enthusiasm to benefit mankind Is such that he 1s a burden to those nearest him. who wishes to do great things for humanity in the abstract, but who cannot keep his wife in comfort or educate bis children. ,1 decline to recognize the mere multimillionaire, the man of mere wealth.
as an asset of value to any country, and especially as not an asset to my
own couutry. If be has earned or uses his wealth in a way that makes him of real benefit, of real use and such is often the case why. then be
does become an asset of worth. But
It is the way in - which it has been earned or used and not tbe mere fact of wealth that entitles blm to the credit There Is need in business, as in' most other forms of human activity, of the great guiding : intelligences. Their places cannot be supplied by any number of lesser intelligences. It is a bad thing for a nation to raise and to admire a false standard of success, and there can be no falser standard than that set by the deification of material well being in and for itself. x Tbe power of the journalist is great, but be is entitled neither to respect nor admiration because of that power unless it is used aright. He can do, and he often does, great good. He can do, and ' he often does, infinite mischief. All journalists, air writers, for the very reason that they appreciate
the fast posswillties "of tneiT profession, should bear testimony against those who deeply discredit It . Offenses against taste and morals, which are bad enough in a private citizen, are infinitely worse if made into Instruments for debauching the community through a newspsper. Mendacity, slander, sensationalism. Inanity, vapid triviality, all are potent factors for the debauchery ot tbe public mind and conscience. The excuse advanced for vicious writing, that the public demands it and that the.de-
mand must be supplied, can no more be admitted than if it were advanced by the purveyors of food who sell poi
sonous adulterations. Virtues of the Household. The homely virtues of the household, the ordinary workaday virtues which make the woman a good housewife
and house mother, which make tbe man a hard worker, a good husband and father, a good soldier at need.
stand at the bottom of character. But of course many others must be added thereto if a state is to be not only free, but great. Good citizenship is not good citizenship : if exhibited only in tbe borne. There remain the duties of the individual In relation to the state, and these duties are none too easy under the conditions which exist where the effort is made to carry on free government In a complex Industrial civilization. ? Perhaps tbe most important thing the ordinary citizen, and. above all, tbe leader of ordinary citizens, has to remember in political life is that he must not be a sheer doctrinaire. Woe to the empty phrase maker, to the empty idealist, who. instead of
making ready the ground for the man of action, turns against blm when ho appears and hampers him as he does the work!
Moreover, tbe preacher of Ideals
must remember bow sorry and con
temptible is the figure which he will
cut., how great tbe damage that he
rein An. it he doe nor himself in his
own tite strive measurably to realise
the Ideals that be preaches for others.
Let him remember also that tbe
u effort to bring about " JoAce aha the equality ef cpoctnaity. te tarn the tool user more and saore into the tool owner, to shift burdens so that they can be ssore equitably bnram Tbe deadening effect on any race of the adoption of a logteal and extreme socialistic system could not be overstated. It would spell sheer destruction. It would produce) grosser wrong and outrage, fonler Immorality, than any existing system. But this does not mean that we may not with great advantage adopt certain of the principles professed by some given, set ot men who happen to call themeelvsa Socialists. We are bound in honor to refuse to listen to those men who would make us desist from the effort to do away with tbe inequality which means Injustice, the inequality of right, of opportunlty, of privilege, - We are bound In honor to strive to bring ever nearer
the day when as far as is humanly possible we shall be able to realize tbe
ideal that each man snail -have an
equal opportunity to show the stuff
that is In blm by tbe way in which be renders service, . There are plenty of men calling themselves Socialists with whom up to a certain point it is quite possible to work. . If the next step la one which both we and they wish to take, why. of course, take it without any regard to the fact that our views as to the tenth step may differ. But. on the other band, keep clearly in mind that, though it has been worth while to take one step, this does sot In the least mean that It may not be highly disadvantageous to take the next. It is Just as foolish to refuse all progress because people demanding It desire at some points to go to absurd extremes as It would be to go to these absurd extremes simply because some of tbe measures advocated by the extremists were wise, v " ' Persecution Is bad because It la persecution and without reference) to which side happens at the moment to be the persecutor and which the persecuted. Danger ef Class Hatred.
Class hatred is bad In Just the same
worth of tbe ideal must be largely de J WT end without any regard to tbe
ternuned by the success witn wucn it individual who at a given time sun-
can in practice be realized. We should
abhor tbe so called "practical men whose practicality assumes the shape ot that peculiar baseness which finds its expression In disbelief in morality and decency. In disregard ot high standards of living and conduct. Such a creature is tbe worst enemy of tbe body politic. But only less desirable as a citizen is his nominal opponent and real ally, the man of fantastic vision who makes the impossible better forever the enemy of the possible good. ;: vv The Sieve of Nsmee. Much of the discussion about socialism and Individualism is entirely pointless because of failure to agree on terminology.. It is not good to be tbe slave of names.. I am. a strong Individualist by personal habit, inheritance and conviction, but it is a mere matter of common sense to recognize
that tbe state, tbe community, the
citizens acting together, can do a num
ber of things better than If they were
left to Individual action.
Tbe individualism which finds its
expression In the 'abuse of physical
force is checked very early In tbe growth of civilization, and we ot today should in our turn strive to shsckle or
destroy that Individualism which triumphs by greed and cunning, which exploits the weak by craft instead of
ruling tbem by brutality.
