ALBERT BEVERIOGE IS A PROGRESSIVE No Danger of Him Deserting Cause Wayne County Progressive Pivot.
BY CARL MOTE. INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 4 BeverIdKc is progressive. If the balmy mountain air of Switzerland has effected any change in his IolitiraI irfcas, ho is oven more jrogrHoive than he wan whori he wont, to Kurope live months ago. Now he la for the initiative! and referendum, and he was eon verted while abroad. Beverldj?e declined to join the national progressive league two years ago end It has feen hinted that he eould ttot., at that time, accept the league's position on the Initiative and refendtim and therefore remained without the fold of the progressives' organization. In the long eareer ahead of the nation, the position of one man upon publie question does not grealy matter, except for as far as his own future is concerned. The progressives in Indiana have been hoping that Beveridge Btlll would be progressive in thought and political activity but they had not reached the point of believing that the fate of the progressive movement depended altogether upon Bcveridge. He Is young, active, thoroughly well informed upon public questions and well groomed to lead any movement with which he might associate himself. It Is certain that he will add greatly to the progress of progressive thought among men of all parties. Beveridge's article on the initiative end referendum in the current issue of The World Today may be regarded as the expression of his latest views on the subjects. Beveridge may be expected to take a position on every public question of the future but he is not much given to interviews and his present beliefs may be deduced from his views of the initiative und referendum in the Swiss republic, rather than any definite statement he made about the twin reforms in this country. Asked what he would do in the period before the opening of the next campaign, Beveridge pointed to a pile of manuscript on the table and enumerated the "orders" he has from various magazines for special articles. He Is hastening tho preparation of his book on Canada and this will take come of his time. The former senator is not concerned In political progress and may be expected to get into the next campaign with the supreme purpose of crystallizing sentiment In favor of progressive Ideas. There was a time when the Indiana senator considered Senator La Follette, progressive candidate for president, "too radical," but It may be guessed without fear of going wrong that their political swan songs now would sound In unison, like the music of the spheres. If Beveridge takes an active part In the next campaign in this state, as he may be expected to do, the reactionaries will find him the most annoying thorn they have yet encountered. They proclaim publicly that his political power is broken but really they fear the hold he has on the people and they recognize the difficulties ahead of them when It comes to reorganization. The whole fabric of the reactionary organization Is built around the choice patronage at their disposal and it is Impossible for them to conceive of any very widespread political movement upon any other than a selfish basis. When they are told that the days when men fought for principles have not passed, they smile. They consider the statement as incredulous, as they believe progresslveness heretical.
Samuel M. Ralston and John W. Boehne, rival candidates for governor; Thomas Taggart, Fabe Gwin, second district chairman; Donn Roberts of Terre Haute, Senator Stephen B. Fleming, Ben Bosse, campaign manager Boehne; Lincoln Dixon, Fourth district and others were at the Denison hotel.
During the week the boom of j "Billy" O'Brien for national commit-! teeman was put to sleep at the insti- j Ration, perhaps, of Gov. Marshall, j Lincoln Dixon who had been agreed upon tacitly for the place insisted that he would be a candidate and this com-1 pelled O'Brien to say he would not be ; a candidate since he had said previous-! ly he would not be a candidate if Dix- j on wanted the place. Gov. Marshall failed to tune up to the boom for, O'Brien and the fear of the Taggart' democrats of offending him and thus jeopardizing th chances of re-election , next, wook on anaesthetic of the O'Brien boom. ! Gov. Marshall remarked recently that he only had one or two friends in the state house. The governor is not. misled by the palaver that reaches;
his ears from the Taggart democrats and he knows that the profusion of interest in his presidential boom is assumed for effect.
Down in the hearts of the Taggart democrats, there is a fear that the re-1 publicans may come near getting together next year on Hugh Th. Miller for governor. If the republicans! should get together, there would be ! no more than an even chance of demo-1 cratic success, and the present state officials are too well satisfied with their jobs to arouse the governor's! ire and thus estrange a large element of the democratic party. In fact the , state officials will insist on the soft pedal wherever possible. That, is why the boom of O'Brien for national com-' mitteeman was exploded promptly and ' that is why the O'Brien for governor, ; was dropped quickly. O'Brien or Charley Greathouse would be more de- j sirable to the Taggart wing than j either Boehne or Ralston but Ralston has pocketed O'Brien and Boehne got i the drop on Greathouse by getting j into the race for governor, first j Then there is an additional argu- I
ment which has been used in the case of O'Brien and Greathouse. If either should run for governor, the
places of Ellingham, Honan, Brolley, j France, Barrett and judges of the ; courts on the state ticket might be j Imperiled. There is a small arm of i aspirants for state office among the democrats and the bars once down '
there might be a head-on collision in democratic ranks.
were. All the New York favorites are coming for this engagement.
"Baby Mine." Many Japanese frequented the performances of "Baby Mine" during the run at Daly's theater. New York. Throughout the year it was observed, there was scarcely a performance that was not witnessed by several Japanese. When a Japanese merchant was asked the reason one day, he said: "The explanation is simple. All the Japanese in New York get newspapers from home, and the leading journals of Nagasaki and other cities have announced that a Japanese version of the play is shortly to be seen there. This aroused curiosity among the New York Japanese, and undoubtedly many of them have seen the play and have written home and told their friends about it. The play is really funny from a Japanese standpoint, though, naturally, it will undergo some changes in its adaption to our style of theatrical performances." "Baby Mine" will play a return date at the Gennett on Tuesday, November 7th, when a matinee and evening performance will be given.

At the Murray. Every once in a while a legitimate actor enters vaudeville a legitimate actor, you know, is an actor who with the aid of a dozen others tells a story in three, four or five acts, that the audience very often wishes was told before the curtain rose. This means that instead of working two minutes and depending upon others for two hours and twenty-eight, he plunges into the story and sweats honest prespiration for twenty solid minutes. Such an actor is Ma. August Neville who will present at the Murray for the first time a dramatic sketch entitled "Politics and Petticoats," by Oliver White. Mr. Neville brings his mature art to the personality of the powerful master of civic politics and the intensity of the diminitive drama is fascinating in its development and terrific in its denouement. Mr. Neville, as John Conlon, political boss, is one of the best portrayers of this type in the business. He grips the audience with his masterful acting as only an artist can. His convincing manner in dealing with his selection for Mayor make his hearers feel as if they were listening to an earnest conversation between master and man. Mme. M ureal, the leading lady in the sketch is all that could be desired in an actress of marked ability, possessing fine voice and gestures. Frank Marble, Jr., is also in the cast and is well fitted for the part taken. The remainder of the bill is also up to the high standard of the house. Marie Yuill is a bundle of graceful animation and puts a lot of Eva Tanguay vim into her work, while her partner, Bobby Boyd's eccentric dancing is ony equalled by Geo. M. Cohan. Pauline Corbett, the singing girl, is a dainty young Miss with an excellent singing voice. The Meade Trow Trio are hand to hand balancers and ring experts of more than ordinary ability.
BY ISAAC L. TOTTEN. Judging from the results obtained by other business men. it is apparent that farmers should advertise in order to make their business more profitable. If more farmers really knew of
i the advantages of advertising they J would certainly be more liberal users i of advertising space in the local
'papers, in the farm magazines and
other periodicals that reach the consumer of their products to whom they
wish to sell. This subject of advertising is one worth pondering, and every farmer
' should give to it more intelligent con
sideration. There was a time when, as some one has said, "If a man can made a better mouse trap than any one else, no matter where ho lives
the world will make a path to his; fully the companies who wish to sell! door." This statement is true to a j you farm machines present their argucertaiti extent today, but figuratively j ments to you through the papers and j speaking, there are so many makers j magazines that come into your home.; of good mouse traps that we would be j Not only that, but they send to you at a loss to know which one would expensive catalogues, circulars, calen-: suit us best if the maker did not let j dars, post cards and novelties and us know about the merits of his re-1 they expend thousands, yes millions spective mouse trap. Therefore, it of dollars to place exhibits at fairs,; becomes imperative that every farmer j where you and other farmers attend, who wishes to market his products at in order to arouse your desire for their th highest nrices. with the least I particular goods. i
what you have to sell and influence them to buy. You may have the best product, yet if no one knows of that fact, you will receive no higher price than the farmer who sells an inferior product. Farming is just as much of a business as any other line of endeavor and it should be conducted according to the best business principles.
A large manufacturing institution
looks after the distribution of its products with just as great care, and, in most cases, greater care than it does the production. The officials of a large manufacturing institution know that the merits of their goods and the fact that they have such goods must be brought to the attention of the people to whom they wish to sell. You know how diligenly and force-
amount of inconvience to himself, should advertise. j What is advertising? James W. j Fisk says, "Everything that aids , toward increasing the popularity of j something or someone is advertising. ! The cheery 'good morning' with , which you greet an acquaintance, the ffrrlial welcome accorded those who
call, the making of contributions to J charitable institutions all these and : many more happenings of like charac-, ter are advertising for they earn for; ! those who use them a degree of popu- i ilarity not accorded those who refrain; i from such actions."

Why cannot you use some of their same medicine in moderate doses that tit your particular case, and advertise your products, then you would not be compelled to take the prices paid for inferior products for vour eood
products for your good products, and j you would be saved a large amount j of useless chasing here and there to ' find buyers. How often do you see a farmer ; standing on the market square dicker-1 ing with someone over the price of a ; load of wood, hay or corn, and ner 1
haps he stands there from early morning till nearly nightfall without selling the load. And, he often comes back home nearly frozen and completely disgusted with market conditions, when it is his own fault. "But," someone will say, "the customer wants to see before he buys," and that is another point that we are coming to in
be invested with the individual characteristics of the farmer. The products will then possess an added value that they would not have if handled in any other way. Therefore, if a man has a reputation for selling nothing but good goods or that what he has to sell is just as he represents it. then, of course, it would not be necessary for him to cart his products about the country for inspection. The following shows how one farm
er handles the sales of his products and his method is well worth every farmer's consideration. He says.
I "When I am ready to sell my stuff. I insert a little advertisement in the j local paper, telling the people what I Ihave to sell. If live stock, how many head of each and when they will be ready to ship. The result has been that the buyers are right after me, and naturally, I always get the highest price. On the other hand, if I want to buy a cow, a steer, a horse, or a dozen of each, I insert a little adver'timesent that costs me maybe twentyfive of thirty cents, and instead of
traveling over the country inquiring if jmy neighbors have this or that fori I sale, the newspapers do it for me at j

The rebuke of Wayne county republicans to the county central committee last for their refusal to entertain Senator LaFoIlette "officially" was one of the most significant political developments in recent months. After the committee had met, voted that "by the exchange of thoughts and Ideas men's opinions are broadened." and in the face of that declaration refused to entertain LaFoIlette, more than 100 shop men gave public expression to their disapproval. The shop men will entertain La Follette and at a meeting Thursday night perfected an organization for that purpose. Their desire to hear the progressive gospel will find expressIon in action rather than words. The high cost of living was discussed and the position of Senator Beveridge In the progressive movement was commended. "I believe Senator Beveridge burned the bridges in 1910," said a prominent Wayne county republican who addressed the shop men. "and I think there is no doubt about his being actively associated with the progressive movement in Indiana." Wayne county may become the pivot about which the progressive movement in this state will turn. This county was made progressive several years ago, and it has remained steadfast. In 1910. there was a difference of more than 1.200 between the vote of W. O. Barnard, standpat candidate for congress and the legislative ticket, pledged to support Senator Beveridge. The 1,200 votes represented the protest of the independent voters of Wayne county against standpatters and standpat policies.
"The Girl From U. S. A." The musical comedy drama, "The Girl from U. S. A.," which is due at the Gennett theater Monday night, November 13th, carries the auditor nearly 'round the world, as its scenes are laid in France, Turkey and China. It has an intense love story, a catchy type of comedy, and delightful musical numbers that leave no place for ennui all through Its three acts. A
capable company of singers and play-i
ers, who have been receiving flattering press comments in other places visited, will give the piece its performance here. The musical numbers are especially mentioned as affording keen pleasure.
"Quincy -Adams Sawyer." Now and then the theater-goer finds a play that he would rather see again than an entirely new one. Such a play that he would rather see again than an entirely new one. Such plays are not written very often, but once in a great while they make their appearance and they live on for many years. "Quincy Adams Sawyer," the great rural drama success, which is remembered as a most decided hit when seen here before, is a play that one has a taste for seeing again and its return to this city at the Gennett theater Saturday, November 11th for matinee and night, will be hailed with genuine delight. It is fully expected that this New England play, dramatized from Mr. Pidgin's widely read book of the same name, will prove even more popular this time than before. It has the advantage of coming with the stamp of a New York run and the approval of crowded houses nightly at the Academy of Music in that city. A number of improvements have been made in the mechanical effects, and the scenery is almost entirely new. The sweet and pure country atmosphere that pervades the play, the quaint and simple story, the naturalness of the scenes, and the wholesome good nature of the many amusing scenes these are the qualities that are pleasing the immense audiences everywhere. One great attraction the play seems to possess for most theater-goers is the fact that it is so entirely different from all other country plays that have ever been presented. It seems to have established a new school in the bucolic drama, as it
ART IN PHOTOGRAPHY. As executed by F. M. Somers, of Cincinnati and the results following the portraits by photography, which he is modeling after the old masters, such as Rimbrant, Gainsborrough, Reynolds and others, are meeting with great success. They are remarkable for a new style of lighting as well as a new method of chemical treatment that results in a more strikingly novel and effective style of picture than any yet shown. This beautiful style of photograph will be exhibited only in the Studio. Also an exclusive line of frames made for this style of portraits. The people of Richmond while in Cincinnati should not fail to see this beautiful line of work. Somers Portrait Photographer Shop in the Market National Bank Building, Cincinnati.
