Homer L. Cook from speaker of the lower house

to secretary of state, must not be regarded as indicative of no popular demand for good government. Another legislature like that of 1913,

which disgraced Indiana's good name, will never again be tolerated.

Five Stories Receive Mention With Honors

Messrs. Cook, O'Neil, Et AL

Whether the speaker of the Indiana house of representatives and the lieutenant governor, acting as presiding officer of the senate, can, upon their whim, constitute themselves the legislative body of the state, is the question which will be tried when Lieutenant Governor O'Neil and Mr. Cook, former speaker, now secretary of state, are arraigned on the indictments recently returned against them. It is a serious question, one which vitally effects the people of Indiana. If Mr. O'Neil, Mr.

Cook and the other indicted officials are found guilty they are deserving of the severest penalty the law can impose. . Good government is a crying need in this machine-ridden state. It has been conspicuous by its absence during the Taggart regime, and how contemptible and disgusting is Mr. Taggart's published comment on the grand jury's finding: "The legislature of 1913 did only the things that former legislatures did, except it may have done them a little stronger;" and his further comment that the unlawful actions reported by the grand jury were "due to two things, ignorance of the statute and general carelessness." In police court the other day a miserable creature who pleaded ignorance of the law was informed that the law recognized no such defense. As to the lobbying evil the grand jury complains of there is only one remedy, prompt and effective legislation by the legislature, which meets next month, to properly regulate this great great enemy of good government. That Indiana voters last month promoted

The Red Cross Seal. There were approximately forty million Red Cross Christmas Seals sold in the United States during the holiday season of 1913, which means that about four hundred thuosands of dollars were spent by the people of our country in order that the fight against the Great White Plague might go on successfully. The cheery message of these Christmas seals

has gone out on holiday letters and packages for six years and each penny spent added to the greatest crusade of modern times. And every year since 1908 the national work has gone happily on. In round numbers the gross receipts that have been gained through the

idea that Miss Bissell gave to the Red Cross so

"The Whitewater Valley," which took second place is being produced because Manager Brinner considered it more adaptable to working in the backgrounds which must be used than the other. "The Other Man's House," by Mrs. McManus is briefly told as follows: "Martha Wells, a private detective, becomes hard pressed to send her mother to a different climate. She finds Mr. Grey's pocketbook containing three $500 bills, and claims one of I them for her reward, and sends the re- : maining $1,000 to Mr. Grey with a note

Martha to find the woman who kept his money. That afternoon Maude purchases a pair of shoes and presents a $500 bill. The shoe merchant follows her.

"A month later Mrs. Grey calls in Martha and offers her $500 to locate the woman with whom her husband has fallen in love, which proves to be Maude. At the close Sands cringes under Ogborn's question, 'Does it pay
