THOMAS G. PATTEN. Thomas G. Patten, who is serving his first term in Congress as representative of the Fifteenth district of New York, was born in New York City, September 12, 1861. .He attended an academy at Ossing and later graduated from Columbia College. Though educated for the law he abandoned that profession to engage in the real estate business in New York, in which he was eminently successful. In addition to real estate he became interested financially in transportation and other tnterprlaea. He became allied ' with the Democratic organization in New York City and State and two years ago was the successful nominee of that party for congressman.

The Registration Law.

In Wayne county there, has been considerable opposition to the registration law. Those who oppose it argue that it is useful only in cities like Indianapolis, Ft. Wayne, South Bend and Evansville, where vote frauds are common, and because its cost is too great. We cannot agTee with the critics of the law that it is of no benefit to a city the size of Richmond, or even to smaller communities. While the law as it is written on the statute bocks may be imperfect, at the same time we believe the principle is right. What faults the law has can be corrected by amendments. In the first place the principle of registration of voters gives to the voter a ballot of some intrinsic value. He must properly qualify himself to secure his ballot from the state and he knows that every other citizen must do likewise. The ballot under the registration law is so safeguarded that the citizen now has some real reBpect for his right of suffrage. Under the law repeating ia done away with and gang voting of unnaturalized and unqualified people is impossible. Surely that alone makes the law valuable. Of course election frauds in small communities are rare, but the registration law is of value to the voters of such communities because it places suffrage on a high plane. For the same reason the law is beneficial to the voters of larger communities, plus the fact it prevents election frauds. County Auditor Bowman, has been quoted as saying the law is of no benefit to Richmond voters because the elections in this city are honest. No doubt this is true, but when Mr. Bowman was a resident of Hageretown there were times when Richmond could not boast of clean elections. Without the registration law what assurance have the citizens of Richmond that at some future time the old method of conducting elections will not be revived? In Kentucky, a state whose elections were formerly notorious, the registration law has been adopted and has been highly successful. One feature of the Kentucky law might be written into the Indiana law, and that is the giving of registration receipts to voters after they have qualified for their ballots. This adds to the voter's respect for his ballot.

The Theaters 1 i

A Reward for Porter.

Enos Porter, of Shelbyville, has finally been rewarded by the Republican state machine for his treachery to his district. He has just been appointed a member of the G. O. P. state executive committee. Jim Watson's tool, which he so successfully used in his notorious "double cross" at the Connersville Republican convention last spring, did his work well at the Republican national convention. He was sent there by his master as a Taft supporter in the guise of a Roosevelt delegate. For disobeying the instructions of the convention Mr. Watson has now promoted Enos to a membership in a select organization of political highbinders. We sincerely hope Mr. Porter has reached the goal of his ambition as a member of the Republican state executive committee, because that is as high an office as he will ever hold. When James E. Watson realized at the Connersville convention that he was outnumbered and outgeneraled by the Roosevelt men, he resorted to the only weapon he had left, treachery of the lowest type. He stated that he recognized it would be futile to resist the plan of sending two Roosevelt delegates to the national convention. That was the cue for Porter, who came forth with loud protestations of his undying admiration for Theodore Roosevelt and Progressive policies and said he would like to go as a delegate to the Chicago convention. With this lie on his lips Porter was elected a delegate. Tom Bryson, of Connersville, was selected as the other delegate. It is an old story how Bryson gave Col. Roosevelt his loyal . support but how his fellow delegate, Enos Porter, became a rabid Taft man before the train he was aboard entered the Chicago city limits.

"The Yankee Girl" was the first theatrical event of the season for Richmond, Indiana. It is a musical comedy with the prestige of a previous successful record, has not been seen hitherto here, had for its star one of the best known musical comedy actresses now before the American public, plays in all the leading houses of tiie country including the Murat, in Indianapolis, where it appears this week, and is. alto

gether, regarded as one of the leading j theatrical attractions of its class for the present season. '

rticnmona, however, which com-: plains that "nothing good ever comes ; to this town" was not in over-whelm-, ing evidence last night. Not because the town didn't know it j was here. j For it has been advertised assidu- j ously for the past three weeks. . So whatever you may or may not ! think of musical comedy there was no j denying that we had handed to us this ; early in the game of 1912-1913, the j best that was obtainable. j This is the foreword.

As to "The Yankee Girl." it is like all the rest. "Once a musical comedy, always a musical comedy," to slightly parody a certain play seen here within the last blue moon or so. Its music is tuneful, its girls pretty enough although not the sort that would drive to insanity but without doubt alluring its principals clever, its star charming, and its humour not entirely microscopic. It might nave been somewhat more attenuated that it was, however, if it had not been translated through so diverting and talented a comedian as

Charles J. Winninger. Winninger is one of the cleverest comedians seen here in stra'ight theatrics for many a long day. His material was thin to tenuity but he manipulated it as skillfully as a sculptor whose clay has run short, but who must complete his work without further supply. To achieve effects, under such circumstances, argues the possession of

TWO CLUBS ACTIVE

FOR EXTENSION

The Connersville Commercial Club, in association with the Richmond Commercial club, is preparing to besiege the T. H., I. & E. traction officials to have the Milton spur of that line extended to Connersville. Efforts in that direction were made by the two bodies some months ago. The road officials talked hopefully, but did nothing. The spur which the commercial organizations wish lengthened runs from Cambridge City southward to

Milton. The territory from there to Connersville is practically level. The route would parallel the Big Four railroad.

Musical Note. A gentleman at a musical party where the lady was very particular not to have the concord of sweet sounds Interrupted, seeing that the Are was going out, asked a friend in a -whisper. "How could you stir the fire without interrupting the music?" "Between the bars!" replied the friend. Home Notes.

actual genius. Winninger, in short, established himself with the local public last evening aa an actor of adaptability and resource. Without him 'The Yankee Girl," it is feared, would fall the traditional flat. Julie Ring is a young woman or striking physique and certain fresh facial charms, and an actress of this

class who understands the technique .

of her presentation. She eings well, dance3 well, dresses effectively and was sometimes entirely captivating, specially in a certalu rose colored gown slashed up at the side to dis

play enchanting but elusive silken and ( shapely glimpses. !

Miss Ring is not without certain ta'.-' ents as a comedian. She is, however, obsessed with the importance of her own stellardom and, it is evident even to the tyro, must bo played to. She is going to have the center of the stagge and has it whether, theatrically, she should have it cr not and without regard to vne plot and incidents of the play. "The Yankee Girl," in fact, is absolutely without originality depending upon Its effects for old stage tri ks and such moth-eaten devices as draping the star-spaugled tanner over the

deserted heroine posing tearfuuy in the spot-light and "such-like." And its comedy that is aside from the medium through which it was interpreted not comedy, but farce and horse-play and burlesque. It is typical of the worst faults of the modern theatric presentation of its class and, indeed, of the latter day stage. In passing it might be suggested that if the contract is not too entangling, it might be well to loosen the pressure on the young woman taking the part of "Lolita" the program not at hand. Why any company of the alleged prestige of this should knowingly and with intent afflict itself and the publis with such weird cater-waulings, as amanated from the vocal organs of this otherwise unobjectionable and comely young woman, is one of the seven mysteries. She sounds like a decrepit caliope just in from a prolonged bat. E. G. W.

Save the Babies. INFANT MORTALITY is something frightful. We can hardly realize that of all the children born, in civilized countries, twenty-two per cent., or nearly one-quarter, die before they reach one year ; thirty-eeven per cent., or more than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen t . , We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castona would save a majority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to pay that many of these infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures and soothing syrups sold for children's complaints contain more or less opium or morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity, they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Caatoria operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of Chas. II. Fletcher.
