EDITORIAL VIEWS.

SMASHING PRECEDENTS. (South Bend Tribune.) Having sat 12 days in the presi

dential chair President Wilson has

broken 16 precedents, say the Wash

ington correspondents. The first old

custom to go was the inaugural ball and the latest is the putting up the

bars against John Barleycorn and his

! kindred. Of the list of 16, public approval will not be -withheld from any

except two. Much of the red tape can

be done away with and the country

.suffer no loss.

It is a lamentable fact, however, and one thrice proved by tragic consequences, that in this land of the free

the Mfe of the president is not always safe from the attacks of asassins. It wag a very democratic thing for President Wilson to do away with the khaki-clad motorcycle detectives who have been accustomed to follow the white house automobile wherever it went, but the wisdom of the order Is somewhat questionable. The ancient custom of draping the president's box at the theater and playing the national anthem when the president arrives has been put into the discard. This is greatly to be regretted. It was not Woodrow Wilson, or William Howard Taft, or Col. Theodore Roosevelt who was being honored by these things. " It was the president of the United States. Mr. Wilson is no longer a private citizen. For the next four years, wherever he goes, whatever he does, he is the president of the United States. Too much deference therefore cannot be shown him wherever he goes or whatever he does. Symbolism has its part to play in the education of the people. The spirit of patriotism has lost valuable id in the abolition of decorations from the president's box and silencing of the national anthem at his appearance.

Why Was the "Blue Sky" Bill invalid? One of the measures to which the Democratic party "pointed with pride" as the fruits of their labors at the last legislature was the "blue sky" bill. Of course it was imperative that the party point to something which might find favor with the public, but it would have been well if the "blue sky" bill had been left off the list

of measures the Democrats took pride in, for the act designed to stop the peddling of fake stock has been vetoed by the governor on the advice of the attorney general that it was unconstitutional, and the opinion of the attorney general is undoubtedly correct.

Also the action of the governor has been a Godsend to legitimate

business interests in the state.

But what excuse have the Democratic members of the legisla

ture and the governor for putting through such a measure as the

"blue sky" bill just held unconstitutional? The legislature was in session sixty days and some action to protect the people of Indiana from swindling agents of wildcat enterprises was badly needed, but the best effort the Democratic party could put forth along this line was an act not worth the paper it was printed on. No excuse can be accepted, if offered, that it is impossible to enact a law regulating the sale of stocks, bonds and securities, which would drive the Wallingfords out of the state without disturbing legitimate business concerns. Kansas has such a law and the grafters shun that state now as they would a pestilence. At the same time business interests in that state which are operated in a lawful manner have no trouble in disposing of their stock or floating their bonds. Had Governor Ralston taken the keen interest one would naturally expect a chief executive of a state would show in a measure aimed to protect the public from swindlers and to foster legitimate business, there appears to be no reason to doubt that a valid and satisfactory "blue sky" law would now be on the statute books. The governor in one instance showed that he had the power to club through the legislature meritorious measures. We refer to the public utilities commission act. But the only "blue sky" bill that survived the tempestuous voyage through the legislature was one that was cast into the waste basket in the executive offices last Saturday. In the meantime there will be two more years of rich pickings for the grafters from the savings of widows and credulous and unwary workers yes, and from supposedly shrewd business men.

For Cleansing the Blood

WHY AN EXPOSITION. (Indianapolis News.) Some of the western papers that have entered enthusiastically into the campaign boosting the Panama-Pacifio exposition at San Francisco in 1915 are deeply grieved over the niggardliness" of congress In appropriating only $500,000 for a government exhibit. The original request which, as jit appeared in the form of a bill, was inot at all objectionable to the westerners called for an appropriation of ; $1,500,000 and a commission of seven imembera, whose most onerous duties would have been to direct the expenditure of the $1,500,000. Of course, the jbtll was too much of a "good thing," and in the reaction the appropriation jwas cut to one-third the sum originally asked. And now the coast stands (aghast. Only $500,000! Why, for 'the Chicago exposition, so many hun;dreda of thousands of dollars were spent. And for the Buffalo and St. tLonis expositions! The Indiana state legislature passed

a bill appropriating $75,000 for an Indiana exhibit at San Francisco. In addition, it provided for the appointment of nine commissioners, three to be selected by the house, three by the senate and three by the Governor. These nine are to have the services of a paid secretary, although they themselves are to serve without pay. They are to have their expenses paid, of course, and these expenses, together with the upkeep of the secretary, are to come out of the Original $75,000. New York state went the federal government $200,000 better in the mater of appropriation giving $700,000 for a New York exhibit, which, of course, pleases the exposition boomers mightily and affords excellent material for derisive comparisons with the "niggardly" sum set aside by the congress. So the friends of tbe exposition are counting on appealing to the new congress, a congress which Is expected out on the coast to have wider and less penurious ideas as to how large a sum is needed to grave the government pavilion. Now, all of this is Interesting and pretty and impressive. Cut why an exposition at all? Why should the national government have to spend even half a million on a private show staged for the benefit of one city or at the mose for on community? What good will come of it? There will be a lot of nice trips for commissioners and after the expenses are paid there may be some money left to put up a gilded house. But what is the use of it?

An Exceptional Congressman. Here is a letter a certain congressman wrote to a constituent who asked him to filch $300,000 from the federal treasury through the medium of the public buildings "pork barrel" bill: You ask me to join in this raid on the Treasury and to prove to you that I was a liar, a hypocrite and a demagogue when I charged Mr. Kennedy his opponent with extravagance. You profess to be business men. Not one of you would do in your business what you demand that I do for the public business.

No, Gentle Reader, this letter is not from the pen of our representative in congress, Mr. Finly Gray. It was written by John J. Whitacre of the Canton, Ohio, district. Would that there were more men of his type in congress. But, unfortunately, the average congressman is merely what the Washington Times describes as "a voracious animal that feeds upon appropriations. He is fierce when moved by hunger and forgets everything else until his appetite is satisfied (which it never is). He prowls around committee rooms and only an agile appropriation can escape." To this type of statesman President Wilson, with a great faith that betrays his inexperience in the game of national politics as it is played in Washington, is to intrust his pet policies designed to benefit the nation and its people. Before the close of the special session Mr. Wilson will be a sadder but wiser man.

Origin of the Sidesaddle. The nse of the sidesaddle for women riders is traced to the time of Anne of Bohemia, eldest daughter of the emperor of Germany, who married Richard II. of England. Previous to this date all Englishwomen bestrode their horse man fashion, but on account of a deformity this German bride was forced to use a sidesaddle, and the custom became general.

Atart Them Off Right with a Good Lamtlve and Then Watch Their Diet. Mothers are often unconsciously Very careless about tbe diet of their children, forcing all to eat the same foods. The fact is that all foods do not agree alike with different persons. Hence, avoid what seems to constipate the child or to give it indigestion, and urge it to take more of what is quickly digested. If the child shows a tendency to constipation it should immediately be given a mild laxative to help the bowels. By this Is not meant a physic or purgative, for these should never be given to children, nor anything like salts, pule. etc. What the child requires is simply a small dose of the gentlest of medicines, such as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, which In the opinion of thousands ot watchful mothers, is the ideal remedy for any child showing a tendency to constipation. So many things can happen to a constipated child that care is necessary. Colds, piles, headache, sleeplessness, and many other annoyance that children should not have can usually be traced to constipation. Many of America's foremost families are never without Syrup Pepsin, because one can never tell when some member of the family may need it, and all can us it. Thousands endorse it, among them Mrs. M. F. Darling, R. F. D. No. 4, Belivjew, Pa., who write: "I certainly think Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin aaved my baby's lii. 24ar-

Tarmi of Venary. There are terms of renery which a good sportsman wi'l still observe in his speech. Thus he finds a "pack" or a "covey" of grouse and likewise a "covey" of partridges, but a "nld" of pheasants, a "bevy" of quail, a "wisp" or a "walk" of snipe and a "fail" of woodcock. Having fouud them, he "springs" the grouse and the pheasauts. but "flushes" the woodcock, snipe and partridges. Further, he will tell you that grouse are "challenged" and pheasants "cbuckered." that partridges "Jug," quails "pipe," woodcocks are "fa Hers" and snipe are "at walk." So tho bishop was strictly correct who spoke of "some who Jug themselves like partridges into small coveys." London Chronicle.
