The respectable element of New iYork state Democracy is trying to 1 overthrow Tammany Hall and get rid J of corrupt bossism that has made the Democratic party of that great state ia Bcandal and a thing of contempt. It is the hope of this element to nominate an anti-boss candidate for i governor, a man who will not owe his position to corrupt machine forces and consequently make common cause with them in event he is elected. This element of New York Democracy has called upon Candidate WiliEon to use his influence in behalf of a regenerated Democracy and against (further domination of the party by the Murphy type of politicians. There is not the least doubt that Wilson's open support of the anti-machine faction would win the day for decency in New York Democratic ranks. So certain is this, that the Tammany organization has served notice on Wilson and Wilson's campaign managers that he must not meddle in 'New York politics, which, translated, means he must not take a stand against the most corrupt political organization known. The ultimatum of Tammany has won over the petition of the respectable Democrats. Candidate Wilson announces he will not interfere in any state fight between Democratic factions. Thus does the Democratic nominee for president, who went up like a rocket as a reformer and an enemy of machine politics and bosses, come down like a stick of an ordinary politician who Is willing to make bed-fellows of any kind In order to win. Wilson's refusal to give even his moral support to the New York Democrats who are fighting to overthrow the most corrupt political organization of the country shows that he has absolutely surrendered all along the line to the bosses within the Democratic party whose opposition to his nomination was the only asset that nominated him. If he will pot take up a cudgel against Tammany Hall and Boss Murphy, the worst of corrupt state machines within the Democratic party, it is certain that his opposition to other Democratic . bosses ia not to be hoped for. This attitude of Wilson's means but ione thing: his election would not deliver the people from the evils of machine politics, bossism and Special Privilege. He would, at the beet, prove o be nothing more than a nice presl-

Mr Reynolds' Statement (Continued From Page One)

fellowmen who called themselves Republicans, nominated me, however, my fellow Republicans of the great rank and file have been most vilely betrayed and their party organization stolen by a "vicious circle" of political bosses, hirelings of the great corrupt business interests that fatten on the constantly added burdens to the necks of the plain people of this nation. I will not be a partner in any organization controlled by a few men whose sole interest is to reap the capitalized value of public betrayal. I will resign from the place to which I have been nominated by the people who have been betrayed, so that through personal friendship not one of my friends among the people will feel impelled to vote the ticket of a party that has repudiated its great founder, the immortal Lincoln, for such as Taft, Barnes and Kealing." Mr. Reynolds closes his statement in these words: "To those who do not feel that they can support me because of my remaining on the Republican ticket, I ask you to support the other men who were nominated with me last spring. I do not want my position or any opposition that may be placed against me to affect them in any way. They entered the campaign in good faith, and were nominated by Progressives and Republicans alike before there was any division, and now I hope that you will see your way clear to support them." Tifts can be interpreted in either of two ways. Reynolds either fears brs action in forcing the Progressives to nominate a Progressive candidate for the legislature will create certain complications that will react on the candidates of the Republican county ticket proper, and would thus do all that remains in his power to counteract such effect; or by "The men who were nominated with me last spring entered the campaign in good faith, and were nominated by Progressives and Republicans alike, and now I hope that you will see your way clear to support them" he shrewdly seeks through the power of suggestion so to secure himself in your minds as one of the candidates for county office in reality, you realize, as a candidate for the legislature Reynolds is running for a state and not a county office that he will benefit by the votes of a large proportion of the Progresive Republicans who participated in last spring's primary, after having made sure of the entire standpat vote by his espousal of the national ticket, Taft. The Palladium would rather believe Mr. Reynold's words had no other meaning than that it first mentions. But it gives the second because his very words are responsible for it if anyone cares to assume that to be his purpose. Principles are of far more importance than the future of any man. Reynold's political future pales into utter insignificance when compared to the future of an entire people of the great state of Indiana if the Progressives, by electing their state and legislative tickets, can write into the law and enforce such great principles as the initiative, referendum and recall, direct primaries, commission government for cities, workmen's compensation woman suffrage, minimum wage for women and anti-child labor. To do this, however, the Progressives will have to rely on their own kind those who put the cause of humanity on r. higher plane than that of blackleg politics and left those old pol'tical organizations that are reeking with the stench, of their putrid mortification. Progressive principles and policies will only be adhered to by Progressive officials. Sentiment should not be allowed to interfere with the election of Progressive oificials. Every Progressive who, as a Progressive Republican, voted in the primary last spring must not permit now a mistaken sense of obligation thereby to stand between him and his duty towards his family and its future. Which is only another way of saying you who are sincere in this great battle for better humanity by making a better environment for it, must hew to the line leading to the desired end through justifiable means. In the case under discussion the Palladium believes that means other than those than can be expected from Mr. Reynolds must be used. A straight out Progressive must be nominated and elected to the general assembly from Wayne county.

The Chautauqua.

Friday of this week marks the opening of another Richmond Chautauqua, an event annually looked forward to by thousands of people in Richmond and its vicinity. Of late years the Chautauqua has been a subject of much controversy. Its benefit and popularity have never been questioned, but there has been considerable disagreement as to whether it should be held within or without Glen Miller Park. As a whole this controversy has been more or less unnecessary. It is probably true some of the young trees in a little used part of the Glen have been injured, but this slight damage to the public domain has been more than offset by the benefit the institution has been to the people and the splendid publicity it has given the city in general and Indiana's most beautiful natural park in particular. The programs offered at the Chautauquas held in this city have been instructive and entertaining. Twice its management has been embarrassed by Sam Jones and Billy Sunday, Billingsgate reformers, but it has profited by its mistakes and has not repeated them. Some of the most prominent men and women in the country, who are engaged in every line of worthy endeavor, have been brought to Richmond to speak before its Chautauqua audiences, and they have been a great power for good in the community. Also the Chautauqua has prov en an excellent medium for creating interest in religious work and the fine arts; has taught the housewife new methods in domestic science, and has aided the business man, clerkand mechanic in his ordinary, everyday work. Last, but not least, the Chautauqua has been a summer place of recreation for hundreds of people through its camping feature. In a year or two we hope to see the Chautauqua in its new home, on the shore of the great artificial lake, which is to be constructed just north of Glen Miller park.

dent surrounded by an evil administration. If the bosses can dominate him now, it goes without saying that the responsibility of running an administration upon his shoulders he would not dare to break with them and thus deadlock his administration and disrupt his party after it had gained control of the places of prestige and pelf. Wilson and Taft are alike in this respect. They are both dependent upon the most notorious of state machines for their election, and if either is elected the state machines and bosses that bring it about will demand and get their pound of flesh. The lame forces that now control the government will be In the saddle for another four years, and the people may whistle for any redemption of the fair promises that Candidate Wilson or Candidate Taft may personally make or that the Democratic or Republican platform may infer. There is only one candidate for the presidency of this country who has not hesitated to give battle to the bosses, both before and after his nomination Theodore Rosevelt. There is only one party in this country that has as its fundamental principle the overthrow of ring rule and the control of the government by the few the Progressive party. Sontrast the action of Candidate Wilson refusing o offend Boss Murphy upon the ground that the puriftcation of New York Democracy Is not a matter of national concern, and the

attitude of Colonel Roosevelt throwing down the gage of battle to every crooked boss, big or little. Democrat

or Republican, upon the ground that the restoration of this government to the people's rule is a matter of vital and supreme concern to every citizen! Philadelphia Times. Durbin is Frank.

Ch'f f Among Them In Japan Is the Fear of the Fox. j Chief among Japanese r.nfmnl superstitions is the fear of the fox, which is believed to have supernatural power. Shrines called "Inari Jinsha," in which the fox is enshrined as a deity, are numberless. The name of the deity written In Chinese characters signifies fox, and from this it came to be generally accepted that the god was really a fox. Its natural canning is greatly enlarged upon, and it is believed to be capable of misleading and deceiving human beings, -which causes many to pray to placate the fox god. The badger is the next most dreaded animal in the superstitious mind. It is believed to have power to annoy people, its particular habit being a transformation into a Buddhist priest, in which disguise it Is guilty of various deceptions and impositions. The crying of weasels and the baying of dogs are considered evil omens, and such insignificant happenings send a shudder over the believers. On the other hand, a light colored mouse in the house is a sign of happiness, good omens are presaged by what are considered the pleasant cries of crows in the morning, while the so called unpleasant notes forecast death and other dire disasters. If a spider falls from the ceiling in the morning he brings pleasure, but if at night it is thought reverses will follow. To see a centipede at night means happiness. Pearson's Weekly.

Heart to Heart

Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE "I'LL DIE TRYING. Somebody blundered, and as a result the Omaha fast mail, going nearly a inile a minute, crashed into the lH?nver limited at Western Springs, ana thirteen persons were killed and many wounded. Engineer Bronson of the fast mail died in his cab with his hand gripping the revere lever. Lying In the hospital, his face twitching with pain, Fireman Crane told how Bronson died. Me said: "We got no warning until we were within about 150 yards of the limited. Then some one flagged us. aud at the same time a couple of torpedoes were exploded. "It was foggy. Before we knew it we had crashed into the Denver train. Bronsou died at the throttle. When he saw death ahead he turned to me and said: " 'Train ahead. I don't think I can stop her. I'm going to die trying." "Well, he died that way. lie stayed right in his seat with his hand on the reverse lever." Somebody blundered. Make your roadbed as level as a parlor floor, build your cars of steel, put semaphore towers every half mile, use every safety appliance knowu, and yet somebody may blunder. You cannot insure the perfect working of the mechanism of the human mind. In this dreadful wreck somebody blundered. It was not brave George Bronson, though now he is dead they are trying to throw part of the responsibility on him. He died trying. Could any man die better than that? Could death find a fitter time to snatch away a mortal than In such a moment? Could a brave souled man go into the presence of his Maker on instant call in a better way? "I'll die trying." George Bronson's life was as dear to him as yours Is to you. lie loved his dear ones there in Burlington as you love your own, but he loved his duty more! lie is but one of the great army of railroad men, who live always in the presence of death and duty, who, when the clear call comes to them on the instant, calmly push aside all thoughts of self and loved ones and die trying. To all such heroic souls and to the Intrepid soul of George Bronson, engineer, hail and farewell! Oddly Shaped Spiders.

CURIOUS INSURANCE. Seme of the Queer RisW Taken by the Brokers at Lloyd. They will take any risk at Lloyd's in London. It should be understood that this great corporation has" nothing to do with it. but that the brokers issue policies as Individuals. Here are a few specimens of risks actually insured : The uncle of a rich heiress took out a policy for 10.000 guineas agaiust het eloping with a certain man before a specified date. He paid 1.000 guineas premium, and the girl did not elope, so the broker was in 1.000 guineas. A young man sued by a girl for damages for breach of promise to marry paid s.) guiueas for a policy covering any amount of money the jury might award to the plaintiff. It gave her 700, so the broker made more thau 100 profit. A cablegram arrived at the office of a

shipowner stating that one of his j steamers was on the rocks in a dangerous place. The. owner took out a policy for 5,r00. to be paid to him if the ship were lost. He paid for this a premium of 5,000. The ship was saved, so he lost the money. New York World. The English King. The king of England has no legislative veto. He must sign his own death warrant if the two houses unanimously send it to him. It is a fiction of the past to ascribe to him legislative power. He has long ceased to have any.

The king has the right to be consulted, the right to encourage, the right to warn, provided he can find anybody that wants to consult him or anybody that cares to be encouraged by him or anybody that will stop to be warned. In other words, the king is a "figurehead," or, as It has been more respectfully expressed, he is the "ornamental" rather than the "useful" part of the British constitution. New York American.

"When, chancing to meet him." writes Mrs. Conway, "I alluded to the disappointment. He asked forgiveness and said. "I will come next Monday, even though I promise." " He had a constant dread that his friendship or acquaintance would be sought on account of his writings rather than for himself. A lady who sat next hint at dinner 'without learning his name afterward remarked. "I have always longed to meet him, and I would have been so different had I only know a who my neighbor was." This, unfortunately, being repeated to Bret Harte, he exclaimed: "Now, why can t a woman realise that this sort of thing ia insulting?
