THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM

Entered at the Post Office at Richmond, Indiana, as 8toond Class Matt Matter. ,

; The Times Repeats the Question. The New Castle Times asserts that thousands of Indiana voters are asking the same question as voiced by The Palladium recently: "What arrangements have been made for the elimination of certain members of the Republican party's board of directors, notably Boss Barnes of New York?" Then the Times adds: - "With all the fuss and feathers that is being made by Republicans in their district meetings, banquets and love feasts the fact looms big that only a small per cent of those present ever affiliated with the Progressives. Yet the fact remains that there are more former Progressives in Indiana than there are stand-patters so that if the Republican party is as united as some of the machine leaders would have us believe, the Progressives should be in the majority at these meetings instead of about a ten to one minority."

Why Good Councilmen Are Needed. It has been suggested in these columns that the people of Richmond are tired of having "lightweights" represent them in the city council ; that there is an insistent demand that a man of recognized intelligence and ability succeed Prof. Russell in that body. ' If the personnel of our city councils in former administrations had measured up to the required standard of efficiency, our people are reminded, the Main street bridge would not be in the condition it is today. Absolute absence of forethought on the part of one council brought about the operation of street and traction cars on this bridge, which was not constructed for such kind of traffic. It was no fault of the county that the street railway company was permitted the use of this bridge. That company took possession of it under the provisions of a franchise awarded to it by council. It was the rankest degree of incompetency on the part of council that permitted the board of public works four years ago to divert monies of a fund appropriated for the painting and repairing of the bridge into another fund. This transfer was authorized by council within six weeks after council had formally instructed the board to proceed with the repairing and painting of the bridge. Council's careless and costly policy, or rather lack of policy, regarding the maintenance of bridges, is not the only charge which might be inserted in an indictment against that body, but it is sufficient for the taxpayers of this city to demand that from this time on only high grade citizens be included in the council's membership.

ILIFF PROTESTS AGAINST TIRADES OF BRADFORD ON BUSINESS TIN

Rebukes Incendiary Remarks of Chautauqua Lecturer Intended to Arouse Feeling Against Law and Order. Statements made by Chancellor Bradford at the Chautauqua meeting have evoked the following etrlcture from the pen of Edgar Iliff: Editor of Palladium: Every good citizen who lovet law and order and believes that all true liberty rests upon the sovereignty of the law, must be shocked at the utter ancea of Chancellor Bradford in his Chautauqua lecture, as reported in your paper. The speaker Is reported to have said: "Leo Frank was hanged yesterday.

Do the big millionaires and captains of industry see the handwriting on the

wall? They had better, because the

mob will get them as it got Frank if

they continue their way." If such an utterance had come from some poor itinerant Socialist streetcorner orator, the cry would have been "Anarchist! Crucify him!" But the literature and speeches of Socialism do not contain any such red revolutionary talk. The doctrine of "Ballots not Bullets" is preached everywhere by Socialist propogandists. Asks His Motive. But why should Dr. Bradford use tbat sad and lamentable Leo Frank affair as an illustration, and point it out as the handwriting on the wall to warn the business men of the country of what they may expect from mObB and riots? He could have just as legitimately put his illustrations this way: "A nigger was burnt at the stake yesterday. Do the big millionaires and captains of Industry see the handwriting on the wall? They had better, because the mob will get them just as it got the nigger if they continue their way." Dr. Bradford is reported to have said further: "There should be more honor among business men. Business can't put the stamp of approval on acts of thievery and cheating by commercial men and merchants. Those business men who follow that kind of practices should be subjected to the same punishment as the outlaw and -the hold-up man." The punishment usually meted out to the outlaw and hold-up man is "shooting on the spot." One can here Imagine the firey Cnautauquan going Into a store and purchasing a pound of coffee. Going home he weighs it snd it falls short two ounces. He at once grabs his musket and races back to the store and shoots the groceryman dead for an outlaw and a holdup! Dr. Bradford uses the phrase "if I bad my way" repeatedly, and tells us what he would do. Now the object of law and order is to prevent fanatics from having their own particular way. If Dr. Bradford had his way he would treat every man whom he suspicioned of dishonesty as an outlaw and hold-up. This is all sans-culotte talk and deserves the severest public condemnation. Such incendiary tirades do more to bring law, order and true liberty into disrepute than the evils these sensational orators pretend to fight. Such talk would not be tolerated as coming from anarchist meetings. It seems unthinkable tbat a man occupying the place of chancellor of a university should give utterance to such violent sentiments before a Chautauqua assemblage; unbelievable 'that a man who advocates one teacher for every fifteen boys should talk so; incredible that an educator who condemns nearly every form of innocent social amusement should invoke the mob spirit to kill "captains of Industry"; and absolutely beyond credence that a reformer who advocates a rigid restriction of suffrage should call up the bloody ghosts of red revolution and anarchy.

BRITONS ASHAMED OF TEUTON MANIA

If J

Many Englishmen confess themselves deeply ashamed of the treatment of Prince Louis of Battenberg by their countrymen. This feeling is increased by the recent publication of the fact that the man who was driven from the Admiralty because he was of German blood was really the savior of Great Britain in the early days of the war. It was he who gave the orders which brought the entire British fleet into a mobilization at Portsmouth, so that it could be hurled at the Germans when the war began. Winston Churchill has been credited with this move, but it now seems certain that Mr. Churchill was away in attendance on his wife, who was ill, at the time in question. Prince Louis himself corroborated the fact that he brought about the mobilization.

Early City History - ' Contributions on the Early Days of Richmond Will Appear in This Column Daily. 4

. One of the men who attained prominence in Indiana in early days was John Finley, father of Mrs. Sarah A. Wrigley, one of the pioneer residents of the city, and for many years librarian of the Morrison-Reeves library. In 1831 Mr. Finley assumed the editorial management of The Palladium, a position he held for three years. From 1852 to 1866 he was mayor of Richmond. Mr. Finley wrote a number of poems which were widely copied and circulated many years ago. . His poem "To . Indiana," reflects the spirit and environment Of

Editor Palladium: My father was a charter member of St. John's Benevolent society. In looking over the membership list printed in your paper last week, I recalled that father gave me a list of the charter members which I am sending you to print In the "Early History of the City." The organization was founded fifty years ago. It is interesting to know that the first and last charter member of the organization to die, lived on opposite sides of the street. I refer to John Kemper and H. Klute, whose homes stood opposite each other on South Fourth and D streets. The charter members were: Fred Veregge, D. Meyer, D. Hoehne, George Hasecoster, Fred Rosa, W. Mashmeyer, W. Grottendick, John Schnieder, Carl Sudhoff, George Maier, Gerhard Schnieder, John Kemper, Herman Koehring, W. Rosa, H. Klute, L. Kemper, George Schuerman, W. Flohre, W. Siek and Gerhard Sudhoff. George Maier is the only living charter member.

Summer Suggestions For Baby's Mother Seasonable Advice on the

Health of Children in Hot Weather. No one requires as much food in summer as in winter. Do not overfeed children during the hot weather. Serve only the lighter and more easily digested foods, and make sure the bowels keep normally active. Most of the trouble to which children seem particularly susceptible in summer have their origin In a constipated condition. The first care of the mother should be to see that the children are regular. At the fir6t sign of a disposition to neglect this Important function a mild laxative should be administered promptly, Cathartics and purgatives should never be given to children as they are harsh and violent in their action and tend to upset the entire system, The combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, sold in drug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is now very generally used to correct stomach and bowel . trouble and is especially

adapted for children, being pleasant to

Great Change is Attributed to the Use ot Nevf Medicine Mrs. Paulson Now Able To Walk Many City Blocks. Says She Feels Like Different Woman in Every Way. CINCINNATI. O.. Aug. 19 "I suffered from rheumatism and nervous trouble for several months," says Mrs. C. Paulson, a well known woman living at 2126 Gilbert Ave. "My condition was most serious and I seemed unable to find a medicine that would relieve me. I was beginning to despair, when this Tanlac was recommended to me. "I suffered severe pains in the muscles and joints of my limbs. The nervous trouble had annoyed me for many years. At times I was bo nervous that I was almost beside myself. The least little noise out of the ordinary would make me almost frantic. My sleep was fitful, and my appetite was poor. . . . "Now, after taking Tanlac only five days, I can conscienciously say that I have received much real benefit. I feel like a different woman in every way. My entire system seems to have undergone a general rebuilding. The rheumatic pains have disappeared almost entirely. The nervousness has been relieved to a marked degree. "For the first time In several months I was able to walk from my home to Peebles Corner, today. "The remarkable change in my condition is due to Tanlac, and Tanlac alone. I take great pleasure in recommending this excellent medicine to those suffering as I did." Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is now being introduced in Richmond through the 6th and Main streets store of Thistlethwaite's, where the Tanlac Man is meeting the public daily and explaining the remedy.
