AS USUAL.
The Democratic party in convention assembled has been the strongest ally of the Republican party since time in memoriam and the memory of man runneth not to the contrary. When the Republicans need help the Democrats are the very ones to supply the aid by their nominations. ' The Democratic convention which met at the New Murray had just two opportunities to. pull away a great many Republican voters and , to capture most of the Independents. Those possibilities were H. U. Johnson and Lon Mull. There is not much doubt that both, or rather, either, of these gentlemen would have scored heavily, hereabouts, and for that matter over the district. ; . Perhaps, if the Democratic party had heeded the advice of H. IT. Johnson on the tariff question he would have felt himself free to enter the race such jndeed is the rumor. For on good authority we learn that Mr. Johnson's resolution on the tariff was never reported. Lon Mull could have cleaned up the southern part of the district in such shape as we believe only a Mull can. There is a singular and unique regard for that family which has been won by sturdy citizenship and character which is unparalleled in Indiana. - Gray is comparatively unknown except for winning the mayoralty contest in Connersville in a year when any one could have done it. Gray's position as an unknown may or may not be against him in his case it may be an asset. While as far as winning of elections is concerned the Democratic party has done all it could for the Republicans, we are not among those who place party success above party honor and welfare. If it had been the policy of the Democratic party not to play the fool in nominating weak candidates the Republican party might have suffered more defeats, but it would have had to put up better men. We are not interested In the party before we are interested in the people, but because we are interested in the welfare of the whole citizenship. Whenever any party plays small politics it degrades the whole fabric and works against the onward march toward better things. There is nothing at this time which can be said about Gray except that he does not appear to be congressional timber. Tlie remark we started with holds true the Democratic party as a party has behaved precisely as usual.
a baby; kill the flies and let the babies live. Abolish the Laureateship. From the Washington Star. The Star holds no brief as the counselor of monarchs and monarchies, and at this time of mourning in the British world would not obtrude advice or suggestion unless beyond dispute such advice were sound and salutary. There might justly be difference of opinion whether the civil list should be shortened or lengthened, and whether the Aequlth budget should be or not be beaten. These are questions which Bhould be left for settlement by the English. But the matter of the laureateship Is one thtU concerns the whole world of poetry, and It is. in this respect that the British empire needs reform. Every man who writes poetry and nearly every man on the occasion of his first love and when the buds were fresh in spring has committed this indiscretion knows how difficult it is to write good poetry when he must, rather than when the inspiration lays hold upon him. Often the man's muse is balky or sulky and will not attend him when he beckons. Every poet appreciates the hardship of Mr. Austin on the occasion of his poem on King Edward's death. There are many poets in Wasnington'who could have done this work' better. The Star has regretfully returned to the writers with thanks many samples of poesy that were just as good or just as bad aa Mr. Austin's latest essay in rhyme. It may be questioned whether the post of poet laureate is at this day vital to the integrity and interests of the British empire.

American Folk Songs. -From the Boston Herald. As yet no ballad writer has appeared in America that rivals Kipling or the preeminent Burns. The product we have from professed ballad singers is mediocre. But out in the far corners of the land there are to be found the folk Bongs, true ballads- whose authorship will never be known. The course of our national development and the Inherent romance of the fields and forests has Inspired the ordinary lyre to lofty songs. And the life of Isolated communities and the common If narrow interests of the men who work In gangs under all sorts of dangers bave given rise to song and chant that savor of the blood. The English department of Harvard ' university baa commissioned John A. Lomax, associate professor in College Station, Tex., under the Sheldon Fellowship, to gather together these typical ballads. The oldl cowboy ditties, the chanteys of the coast, the gulf and the great lakes are what he wants. There are also army songs, lumberjack chants, the songs of the voyageur. miner and vagabond. All these serve to characterise vividly life that Is passing. And it may be that thorough search will reveal unsuspected treasures. Kill the Flies. , Worn the Milwaukee Sentinel.

LITTLE DAMAGE FROM FIRE
Dashing wildly down Main street at about 9 o'clock, minus a coat and a hat
and with his face partially covered
by a fresh layer of lather freshly ap
plied In the barber 6hop from which he was beating such a rapid retreat,
Frank Carter, captain of No. 2 hose company gave every indication of be
ing a candidate for admission to East-
haven this morning. However, the
cause for his peculiar action was soon ascertained. He was in the barber's chair having his whiskers punched when the fire bell rang and Carter was
up and out of the door before the echo
of the first clang had died away. The
horses at No. 2 were also out on an exercising jaunt and made a spectacular
run back to the building.
The fire was In a shed in the rear of
the home of H. A. McCune, 320 South
Thirteenth street A small boy and a
bunch of matches explains the cause.
No difficulty was experienced In extin
guishing the blaze and the damage was
slight.
LECTURE POSTPONED. The lecture which was to have been given this evening at the Earlham Heights school house by the Rer. McNary. pastor of the Second Presbyterian church, has been postponed. He had planned to lecture on the Civil War and the old soldiers had been in
vited to attend in a body but owing to
so many being out of the city. It was decided not to hold the affair until
later
Much interest is manifested by local Pythians in the meeting of the
Supreme lodge, Knights of Pythias at
Milwaukee, In August. Business which will effect every lodge in the United States and more particularly, those of which the membership is
comprised of older men. will be con
sidered.
It relates to legislation, within the
order, in regard to the insurance rate to be paid by members of the fourth class. This class is comprised of the older members. The committee in charge of the report on the matter will probably propose some radical changes which will eliminate some of the features of taxation which have become inequal. A few years ago the supreme lodge adopted a system which raised the insurance rates. This was done because it was found that many of those
who carried the lodge insurance were
not keeping up the premiums and there was danger that this department of the order would become bankrupt.
At that time it was not anticipated
that the change would work the hardship on the membership of the fourth class which it did. It has been a ser
ious matter with the members of the
latter class to meet their premiums.
In addition to the business which
will be considered, Milwaukee is plan
ning to entertain the visiting Pythians in a royal manner. The National encampment of the Uniform Rank will be held there at the time of the meeting of the supreme lodge. A large number from this city, who are not delegates to the national meeting, will attend the encampment.
AUTO LAMPS STOLEN
Indignant automobile owners descended upon the police last evening when the doors of the Coliseum were
thrown open following the May Festi
val concert and it was found that several large brass lamps had been stolen from machines wnich had been stand
ing at the curb under the glare of the electric lights. Mrs. Omar Hollingsworth was the first to report, two val
uable lamps having been detached from
her car, and it understood that others
lost lamps or other movable parts of
their automobiles.

We're not content with carrying styles that imitatewe carry styles that initiate. The best examples of beautiful high class footwear that appear in the biggest cities are to be found in our stores. Made by the same manufacturers with all the little details of construction just as carefully looked after, they are in every sense just as high class shoes. We're showing some strapless pumps in patent and gun metal that would attract attention in any city. They sell for $4.

What California People Say of the Darviis
DAVIS CAR LATEST TO ENTER LOCAL MARKET Mathews Company Managers Elated with Showing Made by the Machine in Trials.
Local motor car enthusiasts are going to sit up and take notice of a new car which has made its appearance in Los Angeles in the past few days. This new candidate for public favor is the Davis 45, and will be sold by the Newell-Mathews company at its newly established automobile salesroom, 957 South Olive street After several hours running the engine on the floor, the car was taken out for its initial demonstration Friday and put through its various paces on the several miles of up and down hill roads of Elysian parK. than which there is no harder local test for any car, and the way this handsome fivepassenger touring car behaved was a revelation in local motoring circles. With an engine as silently running as a sewing machine, and so muffled down that the . gas explosions were barely audible; an entire absence of noise which would make it necessary to talk louder than in ordinary conversation at any time or place to be readily heard; this well balanced machine took the various grades on the high at a range of speed from that so low as to be barely perceptible on the speedometer up to fifty miles an hour, doing the most tortuous turns and stiffest grades of the park on the high at an average speed of twelve miles, yet never stopping or refusing to respond to the slightest coaxing; and all the time riding with that easy, rhythmic motion that shows the perfect balancing of a really good car. It was conclusively demonstrated that the Davis 45 will quickly win its way to the front, and for a car of its class $2,500, fully equipped and delivered in Los Angeles the Newell-Mathews company has a motor car that will be easy to sell, and one that will stand up under the most rigid inspection and endurance trials. Bryant Mathews, president of the Newell-Mathews company, and T. C. Radbone, manager of the automobile department, who went as passengers on the trial trip, are rightfully elated over the good showing, and have no hesitancy in recommending the Davis 45 to their customers and friends. The Davis 45 is a roomy five-passenger touring car, with 120-inch wheel base and 56-inch tread; has a powerful motor and has the standard equipment of all high class cars. It is handsomely upholstered and painted, and has every accessory that could possibly be desired by the most exacting motorist.
