Roosevelt

Roosevelt came to Indiana yesterday. The whole state was out to meet him. Beveridge waa with him. Now is the time to show your colors. Now is the time for YOU to get into action. From NOW till November this la in truth your fight. For seven years Roosevelt did what no president ever did before him; be, it was, who turned what had been "the vermiform appendix of the republic into tendon and sinew. f And with the aid of the men now called insurgents who fought his battles in the congress of this country he awakened a nation.

What need to tell the people of this community about Roosevelt You know him. You know who have always fought him. Inquire of those gentry who own the public service corporations of this town what they think of the New Nationalism. Inquire of the men who line up with Jim Watson. You will not hear a good word spoken for him or for Beveridge, Why? The silence Is eloquent.

The Indianapolis News fears that Roosevelt will discredit the Insurgent movement! Fears? And the men who are dealing in Wall street fear that Roosevelt will hurt business. Who are those people who are lined up against Beveridge and Roosevelt? And why? Search the reason! . "The men who are honest in Wall street have nothing to fear in new nationalism. But the Wall street man who wants to make a fortune by selling paper which is not worth anything Is perfectly right in dreading new nationalism. The man who has a hundred million dollars and uses his power improperly is right in dreading new nationalism, for we intend tO8hear him of that power." Theodore Roosevelt. No man who Is wealthy and honest fears Roosevelt. Honesty is the issue. And on that issue the everyday citizen is rallying.

Do you remember the last time Roosevelt was in Richmond? They still call the slope in the Glen Roosevelt hilL Roosevelt was not president then. , Piatt had just thought to shelve him by making him vice president. But Roosevelt went into that campaign with the full vigor of a fight to the finish. And on that slope out In the park before more than twenty thousand people, Roosevelt stepped upon a table tore down the bunting and yelledyelled "If you have a crook amongst you cinch him!" Thou shalt not steal.

That la the issue this year. This Is not a campaign this is a moral uprising. Honesty. Do you think you will get it from Tom Taggart? .The bi-partisan machine finds Tom Taggart, the boss of the Democratic party, convenient in Indiana You men who are interested In the employers' liability act ask who It was who shut off the things that were promised organized labor in the last legislature which were promised the "Old Man." Ed Perkins staked his word on the Democratic party. We handled the Democratic legislators? Wasn't It Taggart when you trace it back? AND THE MAN WHO DREW UP THE JOKER IN THE EMPLOYERS' LIABILITY ACT IN THIS STATE WAS MR. TAGGART'S LAWYER, JOHN WORTH KERN by his own confession he was the agent. HE IS THE SAME MAN WHO CHARGED EIGHT LEGISLATORS WITH BRIBERY WHEN HE WAS NOT A CANDIDATE AND LACKED THE MORAL FIBER TO STICK BY HIS OWN STATEMENT WHEN HE CAME OUT FOR THE OFFICE. Do you think he will do better in the Senate if Taggart ?

This is no eulogy of Roosevelt. He is simply an American citizen. Twenty-eight presidents of the United States and t.iree of them have taken their nlace In the hearts of the people not because they were citizens, but because they were MEN. , This Is straight talk to men. It Is all very well to admire Roosevelt and Beveridge and to talk of Insurgency but this thing has narrowed down, to the place where every single vote counts. The enemies of Beveridge your enemies have found that the only way to defeat him Is at the polls. This fight cannot be left to chance or accident. The duty of every man is to put as much vigor into his talk as Beveridge put Into his speeches in the Senate, and to vote as squarely for Beveridge as Beveridge voted for you.

You know bis record. Roosevelt is an Inspiration. This is a call to young men and

thing of what this fight means every man and woman and child. Roosevelt is a man. He is fighting for men. He la fighting your fight. He has come to fight for Beveridge for that same reason. That Is what Roosevelt means to this community. This la up to you from now till November. Your fate not that of Roosevelt and Beveridge lies tn that short three weeks.

somecommerce is largely water-borne, showed a tremendous increase in population. There is no doubt, however, that the river cities which came into being because of their transportation advantages have been retarded by the country's marvelous railroad development. The roads have had the power to put the water lines out of business or restrict their tonnage by cutting rates which might easily be prevented by increasing the facilities for using these waterways. For this reason river transportation and river Improvement cannot be safely neglected. Even if the tonnage of the streams is comparatively insignificant, the waterways are a protection against disIN HISTORY"

Any man can become enthusiastic over investing your money for you. Don't praise a young man too much; if you do, he is sure to get the big head. Be sociable, but don't intrude upon people who would rather not have you around. We will be hated for saying it, but one man like John D. Rockefeller is worth 50,000 whlttlers and whistlers. There are a lot of things more important than the political situation to everyone except those looking for a political Job. When girls are good looking, they hear about It from the moment they rise until they go to bed at night. No wonder they are spoilt. The man who 'takes more pleasure working on Saturday than he does in loafing on Sunday will never have any trouble getting along. There are plenty of women who, had they been born men, would have made a success as guerrillas, poker players or expert witnesses. This Is My 62nd Birthday GEORGE W. PROTHERO. Dr. George W.

Aged Physician For Alleged (American News Service) Santa Rosa, Cal.. Oct. 14. What promises to be one of the most sensa-1 tional criminal trials that has taken place here in many years is scheduled to begin the latter part of next month, when Dr. Willard P. Burke is brought into court to answer to the charge of attempting to murder Miss Lu Etta Smith and her eleven-months-old Illegitimate son, of whom Dr. Burke is 6aid to be the father. The wealth and prominence of the accused physician, the unusual method which he is accused of employing in his alleged attempt at double murder and the subsequent flight of the intended victim to Japan to avoid testifying at the trial are some of the remarkable elements in a case which has already attracted wide attention and the trial of which will undoubtedly be followed with much interest. Dr. Burke, who is a man well along in years is the proprietor of a large sanitarium at Alturas, five miles north of the city. On the night of February 5 last, the patients and attendants of the sanitarium were startled by a loud explosion in the sanitarium grounds. Upon investigation it was found that the explosion had occurred beside a house tent In which slept Miss Lu Etta Smith and her infant son.

Foulois of the signa corps of the U. S. army has been or dered to participate In the internation al aviation meet to be held at Bel mont Park, New York, October 22-30. A number of noted aeronauts will be in attendance at the meet and the or dering there of Lieutenant Foulois U significant that the government ex pects him to examine the machines with the view of gaining his opinion as to the best suited to army purposes. The idea may be adapted to the Wright aeroplane which is now being used at Fort Sam Houston. For several months Lieutenant Foulois has been using the Wright aeroplane to determine its practicability in warfare. The government has built sheds to house the present machine and possibly others to be acquired for experimenting purposes later. The" signal corps has a large field, known as the aviation grounds north of Fort Sam Houston and here In all kinds of weather except during a wind or storm where the operation of the machine would be foolhardy because of danger Lieut. Foulois is engaged in testing the aeroplane and determining what can be done with it under all conditions.

to be Tried

Murder A ttempt jed that the explosion had undoubtedly been caused by a stick of dyaamlte. The perpetrator of the outrage, how ever. had made a poor calculation in niacin the exnlosive. The lives of the intended victims were spared, though it was many weeks before the woman recovered from the shock. Miss Lu Etta Smith, the intended victim, was a student at the university of California when she met Dr Burke. Later she went to live at the sanitarium where her child was born. The child was named Willard P. Burke Smith. The investigation of the authorities following the explosion led to the arrest of Dr. Burke and his indictment on the charge of attempted murder. The officers claim to have discovered that a few days before the explosion Dr. Burke obtained a quantity of dy namite and took it wth him on his return to Santa Rosa from a visit to the Phoenix mine near Oroville, which he owns One of the peculiar features of the case was the disappearance of Miss Smith when the date set for Dr. Burke's trial approached and her sub sequent return. Sometime after the dynamiting episode the woman left this vicinity and went to Berkeley. Subsequently she left Berkeley and was next located in Japan. According to report she was given a sum of money sufficient to take her and her child to Japan and was promised reg ular remittances so long as she remained there. But it is said that the promised remittances failed to materialize and the result was that with the generosity of some Americans whom she met in Toklo she was enabled to return to California. However this may be it is certain that she placed herself In -communication with the authorities here and Is now in readiness to appear as the principal witness for the prosecution when the case of Dr. Burke comes up for trial next month. Struggling to the end with all the resources of a man possessed of wealth and unusual cunning the aged physician now realizes that he must stand trial on the serious accusation made against him. Failing to obtain a further delay in the trial he is now engaged in preparing a defense to the charges against him. His attorneys are Hiram W. Johnson, the republi can candidate for governor of Call fornia, and J. Rollo Leppo of this city. The prosecution will be con ducted by District Attorney Clarence F. Lea and his assistant, G. W.

Mayor Wants to Examine Court Rulings Before Considering the Shed Bill. HE APPROVES OF BUDGET T don't know whether I'll sign this ordinance or not." said Mayor Zim merman as he placed the shed ordin ance amendment In his pocket, after signing several ordinances passed by council last Monday night. "I've got some supreme court decis ions to look up on the matter for I don't believe it is legal to build shed a over the side walk on one street and not another," continued the mayor. This amendment will make legal the building of sheds over business door ways on all streets but Main street. It has aroused a great deal of com ment and many quarrels between council and the mayor have resulted. The council passed the amendment by a unanimous vote and it will un doubtedly go through If vetoed or left unsigned by Mayor Zimmerman. A failure to sign before next Wednesday is the snme p.s a veto. Mayor Zimmerman has signed the budget ordinance and two minor ordinances passed Monday. SEEK LOWER RATES. (American News Service) Fort Worth, Tex., Oct. 14.
