JESSUP PROPOSES STATEJPLATFORM Richmond Attorney Suggests Republicans Give Subject Some Attention.

Tbe following communication from Wilfred Jtntiip waa received by the Palladium today: To the Editor: Notwithstanding the interest in national question, I believe it behooves very Republican to give some serious thought to our .state issues. Now but some 90 days from our convention, neither issues or candidates are mentioned, and since therefore we can conaider the campaign and prepare for it unhampered by the personal ambitions and Jealousies of candidates, would it not be weQ for us to first formulate our platform, and then nominate candidates who will stand committed to the carrying out. of our pledges. Wayne county has no candidate this year for state honors, and no better place can be suggested to commence. Permit me therefore J,o suggest what in my opinion should be the position of our party, not that I anticipate all my Republican associates will join with me, but. in the hope that even the differences of opinion will bring about aurb discussion as will creat proper in terest. 1st. Let our party stand for the reformation of our present antiquated and unjust, laws of taxation. The same should be supplanted by a system which wdll bring about the uniform astesvmctnt upon all forms of values. Irrespective of character of investment; such laws being based largely Upon those of the state of Wisconsin. 2d. Tct our party stand for the cre ation o a Public Utility commission, the same having the control and supervision of all public service corporations of tAe state: the same being bipartisan In complexion, and patterned largely upctn the commissions of the state -of New York and Wisconsin. 3d. Let cur party stand for. the reformatio of the corporation laws of our state, fo the simplification of the same, and the publicity of investments. 4th. Lfft our party stand for the commission! form of city government, making the adoption of the same optional to all cities. 5th. Let oivr party stand for the amendment of outr laws providing for appeals to our, higher courts, making possible such appittls in the elimination of the great expenses now attendant therewith and ttVe eliminating of tbe enormous delays. , 6th. Let our party stand for more advanced laws for the protection of labor; and for tbe more thorough safeguarding of the -public health. 7th. Let our party stand for the initiative and referendum upon all propositions when the same shall be petitioned for by at least 30 per cent of the voters; such percentage thereby bowing such interest ns will merit such reference. Further, I would suggest that the platform eliminate discussion of national Issues and confine itself alone to Issues of state and local character; and further that our platform eliminate any discussion of the liquor traffic, or other moral issues. These last two questions arc omnt-partisan In character and should not be subjected to the tactics usually employed when the same are mado party questions, and further, provided the initiative and referendum is adopted , the proper method will then be available, divorced from politics, to either accept or reject these questions by the vote of the entire people.

WOMEN'S FRANCHISE LEAGUE OF IflDIAfiA

Branch May Be Organized Here. A Great Deal Idle Talk About Women Being Responsible for the Present Social State.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. The Woman's Franchise League of Indiana, wishes to ascertain, as accurately as possilue, the sentiment for woman's suffrage in this city and will sent a representative to Richmond to organise a brattch here if enough women indicate thtir desire in the matter to Justify the league in doing so. The Palladium has expressed its willingness to lend its assistance in ascertaining this information and any woman who is interested in the question of woman's suffrage, and who would be further interested in seeing a branch of the Franchise league organized here, can send her name to this office on a card directed to the writer, Miss Esther Griffin White. AH that is needed Is the name and address of the writer, care the Palladium. This is done merely as an accomodation to the Woman's Franchise league and to perform a friendly office for the local representatives of the suffrage cause. All tbe names should be in by the 27th of March since the league wishes to know the prevalence, or lack, of sentiment in Richmond before a meeting which has boon catted for the 3d and 4th of April, in the Claypool Hotel, Indianapolis. The sending in of the name commits the sender to nothing since it , is to be regarded only as an indication of the general sentiment, which prevails here toward this question. "Coming or going" the women get it. The other day a healed argument took place between sundry represen tatives of the two sexes as to the cause of the prevalence of the social discontent, which no one denies "obtains" everywhere. The jnen took the position that it was the women's fault. There was nothing original, unique or start Ung in this. It has been the attitude of men since the first one pointed to Eve and said "she did it." The men said that nowadays it was very hard for a man to earn an honest living. That is to say, the sort of "living" that the women exacted of the men. That competition lor "jobs" and "positions" was so great, there were so many lined up to jump into the other fellow's shoes at his slightest wabbling, so much pull and graft in the securing of a point of vantage from which to raJce in the shekels, that men are driven to devious business meth ods, to dark and sinuous windings of the financial ways, to underground sht-cuts to success in order to get together the wherewithal to support the women and children. That women m;ide such demands on them that they were goaded to desperation and took: to the financial shambles where they did deadly exe cution to their consciences and degrad ed their ideals. Men, they said, were so kind, de sired so greatly to give to the women and children all that the latter wanted and insisted upon having, that it drove them to resort, to questionable practices and that the social unrest and degeneration of business ideals was directly attributable to this cause. This is, of course, more or less amusing. Its one of those half-truths that sounds so plausible you never think to look further and accept it as the whole. Any Btudent of affairs, or indeed casual observer of tbe game of life, knows that the women and children have no more to do with the present social state than have the men. Society has evoluted to its present condition through a series of natural causes, however artificial they may be in the scheme of Nature for perpetuating life, and no set of human animals is any more responsible than any other. Things arc as they are because the individual entitles do not unite and change them. Its the peopled fault Its the fault of humanity. Things could be changed. A simpler -way of life inaugurated. Complexities dane away with. BOWLING NOTES No sensational scores were rolled at the contests at the City Bowling Alleys, last evening when the Tigers clashed with the Giants. The former won the first two games and the Giants the third. The scores follow: Tigers Markley 182 152 133 Steinkamp 124 173 139 Denny 157 188 147 Martin 180 122 131 Snitz, Harold 161 148 143 Total 804 783 732 Giants King 156 173 148 Hodge 174 153 129 K.

The young birds are driven forth by their savage parents to provide for themselves as soon as they are able to fly. Mo training Is given them by the oM bird. That is left to their wild Instincts, which hunger and necessity develop. There is no "going back to the old home" for the young eagles. be mother bird tears up every vestige of the nest, and if they emit plaintive shrieks the old birds dart at them and push them, off the crags or rocks and thereby make them take to their wings. It takes three years for a young eagle to gain Its complete plumage and strength.

of

Its merely that the people, as a whole, are intrenched in stupidity and tied up with fear of taking, any initiative. As life advances in sophistication its demands become more involved, more universal, more diverse. .Its perfunctory enough to say that the necessities of the present were the luxuries of the past. And they are necessities. The more highly trained human organism must be sustained by a more complex system of activities. Thoreau pulled away from all this. The machinery of government he regarded as an incubus and an absurdity. The environs of what is termed civilization he looked upon as a sort of savagery, a hindrance to the development of the intellect, of the spirit. But Thoreau was a genius. One set apart. He was, in his way, a sort of tranendental humorist. And he wasn't married. To return to the superficial aspect,, it is ever man's way to point to the woman. If he has to supply her with more luxuries, he has innured her to them and himself. Why is it, in instance, that many men do not marry? j Not because they can't find some I women to consent to the hardships, of his limited income but because he doesn't want to give up whatever comforts might accrue from its entire direction to himself. Halting and hesitating because he thinks he can't "afford it" although he may have been assured, as just said, by the "party of the other part" j that she is entirely willing to take the risk and perform any necessary sacrifices his reasons are not so much altrurian as they are selfish. He hates, in fact, to take on any added responsibility. Scrape off the surfaces a'nd it is only the occasional woman who by her demands for herself and children is the cause of a man's moral deterioration. On the other band there are innumerable women performing heroic sacrifices, without a murmur, to give their husbands every business chance, every opportunity to "make good." And not only conducts a menage like a financial genius and in a way which very few men could duplicate, but remains cheerful under every discouragement, every hindrance, every blow iof fate. And possibly, in the intervals, boosts her husband along, cheers him up, pats him on the back, flatters and cajoles and protects from every unpleasantness within her power. What is her reward? Sometimes its appreciation. But not often. It may be, as in the case of a certain celebrated magnate, merely a casting off of the old love to be on with the new. Such an instance is found in "John Rawn," by Emerson Hough, extended reference to which was made the other day. But with the great mass of those with moderate incomes it is often callousness, and not only a lack of appreciation but a total lack of comprehension of what she has done. Oh as to the men don't they have cigars, and "booze," and clubs and little trips out of town? A lodge is, after all, nothing but a club. It takes money to keep 'em up just as it does to keep a club going. Men deny themselves very little. And if they do they have compensations greater freedom both in thought and act. An ability, inherent in the sex, to isolate himself from his domestic surroundings, while of .them and to live two lives both perfectly respectable at "one and the same time." For a man is an unhampered entity in the scheme of things. A woman, as has been said before, is ever handicapped by the burden of her sex. And if the women and children do demand and insist why its not such a bad state of affairs after all. It keeps a man bustling. And that's what he's made for. PAPER MONEY. ft Was First Issued by Count de Tendilla at Alhambra. The Count de Tendilla. while besieged by tbe Moors in the fortress of Alhambra. was destitute of gold and silver wherewith to pay his soldiers, who began to murmur, as they bad not tbe means of purchasing tbe necessaries of life from the people of the town. "In this dilemma." says tbe historian, "what does this most sagacious com mander? He takes a number of little morsels of paper on which be inscribes various sums, large and small, and signs them with his own band. and name. These did be give to the soldiery in earnest of their pay. 'How.' you will say, 'are soldiers to be paid with scraps of paper? Even so. and well said, too, as I will presentlySnake manifest, for tbe good count Issued a proclamation ordering the inhabitants to take these morsels of paper for tbe full amount inscribed, promising to redeem them at a furore time with gold and silver. Thus by subtle and most miraculous alchemy did this cavalier turn worthless paper Into precious gold and silver and make bis late Impover ished army abound In money. Tbe historian adds. "The Count de Tendilla redeemed his promises like a loyal knight, and this miracle, as it appeared la the eyes ot tbe worthy Agaplda. is the first Instance en record of paper money."

HARMQilJLARK GONE Police Assist the Young Man in His Departure.

"Another chance." : This is not the first time. Harmon Clark was arraigned in police court this morning for intoxication, and again his fine was suspended, and he was "sent out of town." Thursday he was arraigned on a j a runs cnarge. He pleaded for a J chance to leave the city and was given the chance. He got drunk the same day. When he went to his home, his parents fled. They have not yet returned. This morning Clark was arraigned again. He pleaded to be allowed to i leave town to go to Indianapolis where he has a position waiting for him. He offered to sell his overcoat :and spend the money for a railroad ! ticket. He said he left the police station Thursday morning to go home to secure money to get out of town, but couldn't raise the fund required so meeting a fellow in a saloon while on the lookout for a suit case he bad lost, he started drinking again, and got drunk. He said he stayed at home all day yesterday and was not drunk when arrested, but that, his parents, accustomed to having him raise a disturbance when he got drunk, fled from I the home under the false impression ne was 'lit up. This morning after his plea for clemency bad been heeded again by the mayor he was kept at the police J station until an interurban for Ind- ; ianapolis was due, then an officer bundled him on the car with a through ticket, bought by the authorities. He promised to stay away until he had quit drinking. PEAFOWL ETIQUETTE. The Hen's Formal Introduction of Her Brood to the World. For bringing up their families peabens are a model to every other feathered fowl In existence. The nest Is usually made of a quantity . of dry sticks, and when fairly set and on it tbe difficulty Is to find out where the ben is. So beautifully does tbe ash gray plumage assimilate with the surroundings that it is often possible to tumble over the nest before recognizing It. In this nest are laid from three to four large whitish eggs about the tiize of those Aid by the common domestic goose. When the chicks are hatched out they are the most delightful little brown birds imaginable. The color is a rich deep brown, and they much resemble young pheasants both in size and in coloring. Many people have often laughed at tbe curious etiquette noticeable in the behavior of bees toward their queen. But the peafowl etiquette in Introducing young chicks to . their owner is at least as curious. As soon as the chicks are able to walk tbe mother marshals them in a procession, and, leading herself, she stalks to the place where she and the others are generally fed. Having formally introduced ber brood, she takes them back to tbe nest, and they are not seen any more for some weeks. The hen will come and be fed, but the chicks are opposed to remain in retreat till they are grown to the size of spring chickens, when they come out and join the rest of tbe fowls and learn to feed for themselves.

CORONER TO MAKE AN INVESTIGATION (National News Association) CHICAGO, March 23. The coroner today is investigating the death of Mrs. Mary Scaleth and her daughter, Helen, aged 9 years old, who was struck and killed by a Burlington passenger train at Congress park, a Chicago suburb. The woman and the little girl had just stepped from a Chicago train. The Denver limited, running at a high rate of speed, passed the station just then. Confused, Mrs. Scaleth stepped in front of the train. A freight train was passing on the middle track and this had added to the woman's confusion. Mrs. Scaleth was thrown fifty feet and her daughter was hurled three times that distance. The accident occurred before a party of suburbanites that had alighted from the train.

A STORY OF KITCHENER. The Disheveled Dervish Who Was Captured In the Desert. The following incident, involving Kitchener's ability to disguise himself, was described by one who served with the Essex regiment in a campaign against tbe dervishes: "I was acting corporal of the guard over a large number of 'gentlemen or the desert' whom we had taken prisoners. In tbe course of my rounds a captive within tbe tent drew my attention, and 1 was surprised to hear in good English the request: " 'Corporal 1 wish to get out of this.' "I of course reported the occurrence to tbe sergeant of tbe guard, only to be met with the curt reply: " 'Let tbe fool stay where he isT "I continued my rounds and was again met with tbe request. Again i reported the matter, and this time the reply was as curt, but a bit stronger, so I went on my rounds again. As 1 passed tbe spot this time the voice from within said: " 'Say. corporal, you are of the Essex regiment?" "I answered that I was, and the prisoner said: '"Well, tell Mr. B. that I want to speak to him.' " 'What name? I asked. "'Kitchener.' came the reply, and I at once reported accordingly to the sergeant. "He immediately made for tbe prisoners quarters, and 1 shall never forget that meeting. Tbe disheveled 'dervish was in reality the Lord Kitchener that was to be, who had been out spying among the enemy and bad apparently been taken prisoner by his own troops." London Globe..

Poultry Dept. By Mrs. S. R Pike

I am in receipt of the following article from a prominent poultryman of 'Fountain City, on the "Prevention of White Diarrhoea.' To Prevent White Diarrhoea. Use a 10 per cent solution ot poultry creolin to disinfect all nests or in;cubators, also dip eggs in the same strength solution before placing them j in the nest, J This solution is made by using 8 quarts lukewarm water to 1 gill of the poultry creolin, or a smaller amount may be made in the proportion of one quart of water to 1 tablespoonful of the creolin. ! This remedy has been in use among the prominent breeders in the East for a number of years with success, and I have used it myself the last five years. White Diarrhoea is otten brought on by feeding tbe chicks too soon, thus not allowing the assimilation of the egg yolk before giving more food. Chilling and overheating are two more causes with incubator chicks, and since this disease may be transmitted from the adult fowls, keep the young chicks in separate quarters. As to Blackhead in Turkeys: To those who may have trouble with the disease known as Blackhead in turkeys, I would refer them to the March number of Reliable Poultry Journal, page 79, in which a breeder of 20 years experience gives prevention.
