Can You Stand the Gaff?

This Is a fight to the death from now on! This la the time that calls for ail that la In you. This -Is thla time, when. It ever, you are put to the teat. Can you stand the gaff? , Are you ready to go into the finish or are you a quitter? Every 'man can be brave when there la no struggle. Then a timid, honest man. can not be detected from the man of militant citizenship. The test has come.

The time has come when the Beast has turned even as the Beast In Denver turned. You know what they did to Judge Lindsey. Even now he is fighting oft the penitentiary because he dared to fight for the right. They vilified him, they told every vicious falsehood with a semblance of truth not mere lies but a cunning concoction with all the accompanying prologues and epilogues the full setting. They made his name a scandal; decent women turned away from him. . Why? . Because he was fighting where fighting meant something. They could not meet Lindsey on his own ground he told truth he set the truth before the people. And when they knew that they could not beat Lindsey, in any other way, they took his fair honor and his decent name and sought to sully it They proclaimed him a degenerate, a thief, a blackmailer, a fly-by-nlght, a drunkard.

All because he was fighting for helpless men and 'women and the kids. All because that fight meant that it Interfered with piling up fortunes by men who were already rich with the coin of greed.

And so it has come in this fight

The issue is plainly written th!s year in men's hearts. It is a non-partisan fight agalcst a bi-partisan machine.

It is a fight for honesty.

And on that Issue Beveridge cannot be touched. There can be no appeal to party in the attack on Beveridge. Beveridge goes back to the stuff of which parties are made. The professional politicians of both parties are against him. There can be no appeal to party because both parties, as parties, are equally Implicated. The Republican . party has its followers of Aldrich and Cannon the Democratic party has its 18 Democrats in, the Senate who voted with Aldrich and it 78 in the House who voted w'th. Cannon. It 1 the record of the man which is the only test that can be applied by the people in their search for the men who stood by them. It Is the record of the man and what he. stands for. On that record and on that platform no one can. touch him. From his vote on the tariff, the railroad rate bill, the pure food laws, the employers' liability act, to the child labor war his record is clean cut for the people. On that moral question for it is a moral question no man can stand up against him. How then 'does the Beast fight back? . As usual. From Leslie's and Harper's Weekly to the man who buys legislatures In Indiana, seems a far cry. But there is a community of interest. Find the man who is back of the "teal of Alaska and the man who is interested in crooked Indiana politics and you will find a bond of sympathy this year. Find the man who Is putting up the money for the Democratic campaign, and find the man who put the joker in the employers' liability act In the last legislature they have a bond of sympathy. Yes, find the man who drew it up and confessed that he himself drew it and was responsible for its passage through the democratic legislature of this State. ,. ' That man was John Worth Kern. Ask the head- of organized labor in this state he knows Ed Perkins knows a democrat himself. In his paper, The Union, there can be found some interesting reading about these dealings with the workmen of Indiana. ' V

So partisanship in the matter of legislation for the everyday citizen is eliminated by the, record. The public record of men is known and that Is what we are to Judge by. ' This fight is not being made on Beveridge because he is a Republican; it is being made against him because he is an Insurgent a man who did not rote with the bi-partisan machine of both republicans and democrats who r re lined up with the special interests.

The vicious personal attacks which are being made and which will continue to be made from now until the polls close, are being made because the enemies of Beveridge know that they must defeat him at the polls. They have despaired of buying out the legislature (though1, that may yet be tried) . So the fight goes on. . So Harper's Weekly, the New York Sun, Leslie's Weekly, and the Indianapolis News, the Marion Chroniclo, Muncie Press, down to the democratic "organs" of the State are fighting him with subtlety and finesse or with outright falsehood Why? It is J. P. Morgan who dominates the New York Sun, Harper's Weekly, and Leslie's the man who wants Alaska for his own with all its mineral wealth. Beveridge fought him. To find them in the company of the Morning News of Richmond which has from its beginning derived its support from the bi-partisan machine of Indiana (which means the Taggart machine) is to find it has also hooked up with the Fairbanks-Watson machine in Indiana which controls the Indianapolis News, the Marlon Chronicle and the Muncie Press, i No. If the people of this county are going to join in with that plun- ' derbund of national affiliations, they will lose their fight It is their fight not Beveridge's though on Beveridge must.be heaped the malicious personal abuse and slanders which will multiply as the time draws closer to election. He can stand it Can you? It is you who must stand the gaff, too.

TO THE WOMAN Or TEE BOUSE. Tired and fussed? Been a hard day for you? And you are envying the wives of

the rich, who are not obliged to work?

Woman, you know not what you do,

because those same women, as a class, are the most dissatisfied, restless and

unhappy women in the world.

It is so because they try to feed

themselves on the shells rather than on the kernels of life. Big houses,

sumptuous furnishings, automobiles.

costly gowns and jewels these are not

indices of happiness.

lou, madam, live in a cozy cottage

and do your own work, or maybe you

have one domestic helper. Tou do

thousand things In a day. But you

have the joy of doing things.

Your rich woman regards home much

as a hotel a place of transient lodging,

a point of departure. Her husband Is the man who signs the big checks and whom she meets once a week at Sun

day dinner. Her children If any are

creatures to be turned over to a nurse.

She Is Idle but worn out. Free but bound to fashion.

Consider again:. When the rich woman gets a new gown it means little to

her. She is used to expensive gar

ments. She has about as much thrill

over something new as a wooden doll.

But you, madam, the gown or cloak you buy out of your savings or the

slim purse of your good hUBband why,

it is a triumph of good management long desired, the fruition of many hopes. The Joy of earning, managing.

to the rich woman.

To you they are epochs In the family

There is a profusion of things that become commonplace because of repetition, and there is a scarcity that

makes for variety and pleasure. Now

Start with this matter of clothes so dear to every feminine soul and figure out how many countless joys and sources of pleasure exist in your life which the rich" man's wife can never

know.

Consumption of Wood is Now

on Decrease, a Report Shows

BY JOHNATHAN WINFIELO. Washington, Oct. 15. From reports

from 48,000 correspondents of the bur

eau of statistics of the department of agriculture experts will say in the fourthcoming publication of that department that more than 146,000.000

cords of firewood is consumed for fuel

annually in the United States. This immense amount of wood produces an

annual revenue of approximately

$322,000,000, or an average of 82,21

per cord. Of this amount 70.000.000

cords was used on farms, 12,615,000

though tn every case ft was foand to

be - much higher than - the value of wood need In the towns and small cities. "This la accounted for by the

fact that the; cost la increased by freight charges and middlemen's profits.

"The value of the total quantity of

wood used for fuel in Michigan, Texas, New York. Wisconsin, Indiana. Missouri and Minnesota and leading states in point of value, exceed S8a. 000,000, or more than one fourth of the value of all the firewood used.

The average value of the wood varlea greatly in several states, though as a rule where the wood is plentiful and near at hand, the value per cord is low. The highest average in any state, according to tha best Information I could obtain, was found in North Dakota, which was closely followed by Nevada, while the lowest values were found in Georgia and Alabama."

wood per farm than those south of it Though this may at first glance seem

strange, because the climate of the northern states is colder than that of the southern states, It is largely explained, by the fact that in the north.

Btoves burning coal or wood are commonly used, while in the south open fire places are more general. Not only is relatively little coal used in the south, but the fire places require great quantities of wood for the amount of

heat produced. The effect of open fire places in Increasing the fuel wood

cords in towns and cities with a pbpu-! consumption in the south is further lation of from 1.000 to 30.000 and the strengthened by the large numbers of

tenant nouses ana cagtns on iue taigv plantations. Id the New England states and in the South Atlantic states rather more wood is used per farm than in the middle Atlantic states.

remainder in the large cities and in

mineral operations.

Notwithstanding the absolute neces

sity for wood as a fuel. It is shown that the annual consumption is rapidly decreasing. This information was obtained from coal and wood firms

and through special agents of the census bureau of the. department of the commerce and labor. From numerous other sources, it was learned that a little more than 20,000,000,000 cubic feet of wood in all forms is used in the United States each year about 7,000,000,000 cubic feet of which is firewood. In the quantity of firewood used on farms, Tennessee, with 4,420,900 cords was the leading state, followed by Pennsylvania. Illinois, North Carolina, Arkansas, Mississippi,' Kentucky and Virginia. These states consumed nearly 35.000,000 cords or about 50 percent of the total quantity used on farms. On account of the climate the distance from coal fields, the development of transportation facilities, and the progressiveness of the consumers, the quantity of firewood used on

farms varies greatly. . Albert E. Pierson, forest assistant of the department of agriculture states that "the number of villages arid towns under 1,000 population in a region also affects the quantity of wood used. Except on the Pacific coast states and in Arkansas, Louisiana' and Missouri," he says, "the consumption per farm west of Mississippi river, is comparatively small. The states north of the Ohio river use rather less fire

which are within a short distance of fine coal fields and which have good transportation facilities. "Of the firewood used in towns and cities with less than 30.000 population only Texas and Michigan report more than 1,000,000 cords." said Mr. Pierson. "The figures for this class were based on a per capita consumption. Nearly 3,000 towns of from 1,000 to 30,000 population were heard from, and the firewood of the remaining towns in each state was estimated from the per capita consumption of the towns that sent reports to us. The average value per cord of the firewood in this class was greater by SI. 40 than that of the firewood' used on farms. "Of course, , of the firewood used in cities of over 30.000 population, the seven states of Washington, Texas,

Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota

and New York ranging in the order named, consumed, about 1,021,304 cords, The wood used in the large cities of these states had a value of $6,821,454. The relatively .; large amount of wood used in these states If due to the fact that with the exception of Texas, Michigan and New York, none of . the other states are near coal fields.

"The average value per cord of the wood used in the large cities varies greatly throughout the United States,

From information gathered by the treasury department it is quite possible that a plan for validating bills of lading covering shipments of cotton for export between the United States and Great Britain will be perfected between American and English bankers associations. Just to what form the proposition is to be accomplished Is not known here, but it is Intimated ' that a project has been started by financiers that will ultimately lead to a satisfactory solution of tha difficulty. Hitherto, European bankers have consistently refused to accept the validation plan, and the comptroller of the currency at the treasury department haa refused to allow national banks to euarantee bills of ladlnr.

This left the whole question in a very bemuddled state and finally resulted in an attempt by the English associations of bankers to form a working plan with the American association J Since the cotton crop this year is esti

mated to be worth about $50,000,000

and since Europe tales most of It a settlement is desired both here and abroad.

The whole question was brought about several months ago when an Alabama firm of cotton brokers failed and several banka In Liverpool which held bills of lading for cotton obtained through them found that some of the paper had been forged. Shortly thereafter notice was given by European bankers that after October Slat, they would not accept American cotton bills of lading unless guaranteed.
