HOOSIER AflGER IS SHOWN AT MEETING Yellow Press Denounced for the Attempt 'Made on Roosevelt's Life.

(National News Association) INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 16 Yellow journalism was held responsible last night for the attempt on the life of Theodore Roosevelt. A meeting called by a citizen's committee gathered at the Majestic Theater to protest against the conditions that brought about the attack on the Progressive leader. Blame for the conditions was laid at the door of the vicious and yillifying press. The crowd filled the first floor of the theater. The meeting was called late in the afternoon and almost too late for publicity to be given it. William Dudley Foulke, Theodore Hewes, George W. Galvin and Richard M. Smock formed the citizens' committee that called the meeting. The audience was unique for a political one. It might have been a gathering mourning a dead President, for there was a deep silence, which was broken but once or twice by brief applause. Indeed the meeting was hardly political, for, although called to protest against a wrong to Col. Roosevelt and the Progressive party, and attended largely by Progressives, many of other political parties were there, moved by the same intense feeling of the people, almost left leaderless. On the stage of the theater sat George W. Calvin, John F. Geckler, William Dudley Foulke, Henry C. Allen, chairman; William Holton Dye, Lucius B. Swift, Paul L. Haworth and A. H. Nordyke. News Editorials Quoted. Editorials from the Indianapolis News of 1901, commenting on the assassination of President McKinley and condemning in unsparing language the yellow papers that had driven the murderer to commit the deed formed a telling part of the address of William Dudley Foulke of Richmond. Mr. Foulke used no such words as "how are the mighty fallen," but the audience caught the full significance of what he read. The editorials were printed in the News from Sept. 10 to 19, 1901, inclusive and some of the most pertinent points were as follows: "Anarchy in journalism must go." "The yellow journals are everywhere coming in for their share of condemnation. They deserve it all." "The yellow press has pulled down its red editorials and cartoons." "There is one way of getting at the yellow journal which is simple and effective. Let the merchants withhold

their advertising patronage from them. The yellow press has become more decent in the last ten days, but if it returns to its wallow, let not the merchant forget." Mr. Foulke dwelt at length on the character of Col. Roosevelt, as he

;knew it from intimate acquaintance, and on his motives, which he vigor ously defended. He made a telling point by reading extracts from a letter by Mayor Gaynor of New York, in which he blamed the attacks of the yellow press for the attempt on the mayor's life two years ago. "I am proud to say that I was appointed a member of the Civil Service Commission, on which Col. Roosevelt had also sat as a member," said Mr. Foulke. I hope that we can be said to have worked for the same things. I have known him intimately for years, and I know whereof I speak when I say that there is no man living who has higher ideals than the man who lies in Mercy Hospital in Chicago. "He has had thrown against his reputation every charge that public men have ever endured. He has been re- - morselessly vlllified and lied about, and yet through it all he has kept the same high purpose before him. His enemies say that he is anxous for power, but I speak with authority when I say that personal and family considerations, with many other things, made him loathe to hearken to the call of the people. He advised his friends not to desert Taft until he had had a fair chance. When the President showed that he was hopeless as a leader of the new movement, he stood aside for Lafollette, hoping that the senator would prove equal to the emergency. He failed, and the colonel had to listftn to the . seven Governors. For that he is denounced." FOR DECREES Two Divorce Suits Filed Circuit Court Today. in On the allegation of cruel and Inhuman treatment Louis E. Hazlitt hopes to obtain a divorce from Nora Hazlitt. The divorce petition was filed this morning in the Wayne circuit court. The plaintiff also asked the custody of their two children. The complainant states that they were married October 26, 1901, and separated July 15, 1912. No specific instances wherein the plaintiff was cruelly treated by his wife are set forth in the petition. Asking a legal separation, custody of their child and alimony sufficient to educate and provide for the child, Edna M. Jurwelle today filed suit for divorce against William Jurwelle. The charge contained in the complaint is abandonment. They lived together for three months, according to the complaint. They were married November 4, 1908 and separated February 4, 1909. unets

JAMES GRIMES SUES T, H, I, COMPAIiy Alleges that He Was Hurled Off Fast Moving Interurban Car and Injured.

Being forcibly ejected from a swiftly moving interurban, and landing heavily upon cross ties is not a verypleasant sensation, according to James Grimes, a resident or East Germantown. Grimes today filed suit against the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern traction company, asking damages in the amount of $500. The plaintiff alleges that on September 29 he purchased a ticket at the local terminal station, to East Germantown. He says he boarded the 5:40 interurban west and when the car reached a point about three miles west of the city the conductor started to collect fares and take up tickets. Grimes asserts that he could not find the ticket and while he was attempting to find it the conductor jerked him from the seat and led him to the rear platform and pushed him off the car. According to the complaint the interurban was running at a high rate of speed. The plaintiff avers he fell heavily, his body striking the cross ties. Ribs on the left side of his body were fractured and he was otherwise severely bruised. A Gentle Hit. Richard Harding Davis at a supper In New York told a good story about a dramatic critic. "The young man," Mr, Davis said, "had roasted an actress dreadfully in his dramatic column. He was introduced to her a few days later, and she said: " 'I think it was real mean of you to roast me like that, especially wheu you know that I have three children and a husband, who is a dramatic critic, to'support.'

add the charm of grace while providing comfort and service. Just think of all of these foot luxuries being showered upon the American people absolutely without cost! Without cost, because everyone wears shoes now, and FELTMAN'S SHOES cost no more than other shoes which furnish only foot necessities and none of the foot luxuries found exclusively in Feltman's shoes. Haven't many men been elected to public office who didn't render their constituency actual personal benefits nearly so great as would the candidate who would espouse the cause of FELTMAN'S SHOES? SHOES not being an issue in this campaign, however, there is no way of acquainting ALL of the American people with the superiority of FELTMAN'S SHOES and the benefits to be derived from wearing them, but those who are fortunate enough to read this ad may nevertheless secure all of such benefits by simply becoming a customer of

TO BROADEN SCOPE OFJTSJCTIVITY Anti-Tuberculosis Society to Reorganize and Hopes to Interest Many.

For the purpose of localizing interest in the wards and townships and brineine home to the individual the purpose of the organization the Wayne County Anti-Tuberculosis society will reorganize this evening at 8 o'clock in the Commercial club rooms. Dr. 8. Edgar Bond, secretary-treasur er of the society, who is leading in the movement, says Wayne county is far behind other counties of Indiana in the war against tuberculosis and that very little practical work to prevent and stamp out the disease has been made here. It is held by leaders that if the individual citizen would realize the imperative necessity of warring against the j malady, much progress would be made 1 in Richmond and Wayne county in short time. I Plant Change. To effect this purpose the society will this evening change its constitution and so alter its clauses that the great mass of citizens will be enlisted in the movement. The changes that j are planned will give the society active worKcrs in eaco wuru uuu luwusuip. The financial plans and publiciay department of the society will also be al tered to Eome under the general scope of the proposed change. The local soj ciety will become an integral part of ' the state society, which holds membership in the national organization. The sale of Red Cross stamps to raise funds will be prosecuted by the society during the holiday season. B. F. Wissler, of Cambridge City, is president of the Wayne county society. The co-operation of wealthy citizens will be asked. .. Palladium Want Ads Pay. The New Mouthpiece for Pipes. Stronger, Better, and Cheaper Tobacco 609 Main St

If the Issues in this

instead of involving innumerable perplexing problems of political economy so confusing to the voter, had been narrowed down to the simple, but important question of SHOES, the agony would have been over long ago we vould know just who was going to be elected it would be the candidate supporting FELTMAN'S SHOES. The correctness of his position would become so apparent after a brief CAMPAIGN OF SHOE EDUCATION, that the opposing candidates themselves would probably retire gracefully from the field and make his election unanimous rather than suffer greater humiliation at the polls. This is no ioke, either. Ve submit the proposition seriously, that a man who would choose FELTMAN'S SHOES over all others and demonstrate his genuine interest in the public welfare by recommending their constant, daily use by everyone, would show such good judgment in domestic affairs that he could safely be trusted to serve the people wisely in political and governmental affairs. And what policy could any candidate advocate that would be such a boon to all the people? Just think of all the men in the United States wearing FELTMAN'S SHOES! Shoes that are stylish, elegant, shoes that wear so long that a man feels ashamed at the thought of the small price he paid for them. Think of the thousands of men who have suffered untold tortures from corns, bunions and other foot ailments, wearing FELTMAN'S TRAMP LAST SHOES and enjoying the first respite from pain that they have known in years. Just think of women finding shoes that not only fit their feet, but that exactly suit their fancy the kind they had often pictured in their day dreams, but never actually expected to see in a shoe store. Just think of the strong, sturdy boy discarding his shapeless clodhoppers for shoes that wear like iron, feel like velvet and look like the pair his sister's beau wears when he makes his regular Thursday evening call at the family residence Just think of the growing girls, wearing those beautiiul FELTMAN LOW HEEL SHOES scientifically constructed to conserve the shapely lines of the growing feet and
