; ' The High Cost of Elections The Republican state campaign committee of Ohio' spent $372,351.08 in the last campaign, according to the report of its chairman filed with the secretary of state. This was seven times as much as the Democrats spent. It is believed in

Ohio that $3 was spent for every ballot that

drooDed into the boxes. A deficit of $86,506.87

was staring, the campaign managers in the face when the report was filed. - It the election in one state cost such a tremendous sum of money, it is f air to ask what became of the money." The Republicans must have been profligate in their expenditures and money must have been as free as air and must have flowed as freely as water. Hughes lost the state. It was an expensive defeat after a still more expensive campaign. '- Perhaps the experience of the Republican committee in Ohio teaches a new lesson in politics, namely, that money is not the only factor in winning or losing a fight. Other causes conspired to defeat Hughes, which mere money could not check or offset , , , . n EditoTs .'of., Ohio, newspapers say one reason

Hughes lost was because the people are sick and tired of the old political bosses that still want to control the Republican party. And that may account also why the Democrats lost control of Indiana.: The election, viewed as a whole, seems to prove pretty conclusively that the American people have firmly taken hold of progressive ideas and that they will not tolerate a recurrence to the reactionary program. If this is a fundamental principle in explaining victory, and defeat in the last campaign, leaders of both parties may just as well take it to heart now and approach the next election with the decision that no reactionary shall be a source of ; weakness :t to the ticket.

Getting Even It pays better to get even with your friends than to get even with your enemies. Your vindictiveness may injure your enemy and you may pat yourself on the shoulder for having inflicted punishment, but the man remains" your enemy and you must guard constantly against a reprisal, so in the long run what have you gained? And while you are pursuing your enemy with hatred in your heart and cruel designs in your mind, your friends are suffering from neglect. ( Switch part of the time you are. giving to your enemy to your friends, for they are entitled to it. Many of your friends have done you turns that , have brought money to your pocket and happiness to your heart. Did you ever try to get even with them? You'll get lots -of satisfaction trying . to play that game for a while, and your friends will appreciate the effort.

SPIERS LOSE POWER

STATE LEGISLATURE

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Nov. 28. Nobody seems to know how many, farmers will be members of the legislature this winter, because the full classified list of the members and their occupations and business has not yet been prepared. An Indianapolis publishing house has issued a little folder as it always, does, giving a list of the members of the house and senate, together with the counties they represent and their postofflce addresses. The list gives the occupation and business of as many members as possible at this time, but the list is incomplete. A new edition of the folder will be issued when the full information has been obtained. Two years ago there were fortytwo farmers in the House alone. Some of these farmers were merely "telephone" farmers who lived in town and managed their farms from there, but they were classed as farmers, just the same. They ' formed a , farmers' club for the . purpose . of looking ; after ' the interests , of farm

legislation, and they were a power In the House. Up to this time, however, the list shows only nine farmers in the House but when the full information has been gathered, it is supposed that the number will run to thirty or more.

"Here I have the fibres, also of four pieces of paper that have already fig,ured In the case. These four correspond, as well as the Indentures of the . torn edges. As for the fibres, lest you should question the accuracy of the method, I may say that I know of a case where a man in Germany was .arrested, charged with stealing a government bond. He was' not searched until later. There was no evidence, save that after the arrest a large number of spttballs were found around the courtyard under his cell window. This method of comparing the fibres of the regular government paper was used, and by It the man was convicted of : stealing the bond. I think it unnecessary to add that in the present case I can see delnltely that not only the four pieces of paper that bore warn

ings to us were the same kind, but sthat this whole sheet, with its anonyv mous warning to you, is also the 'lame." " - : .' Inez Mendoza looked at Kennedy as though he possessed some weird power. Her face, which had already been startled into an expression' of fear at his mention of Lockwood, now was pale. - ' . - "Other warnings?" she repeated tremulously. Quickly Kennedy explained what bad already happened to us, watching the effect on her as he read of the curse of Mansiche and the Gold of the Gods. "Oh,- she cried, mastering her emotion with a heroic effort, "I wish my father had never become mixed up in the business. . !. Ever since I was a little girl I have heard these vague stories of the big fish and the little fish, the treasure, and the curse. But I never thought they were anything , but fairy tales. ,You remember, when ! I first saw you, I did not even tell 'them to you." j "Yes," returned Kennedy. "I rej member. But had you no other reaison? Did you. down in. your heart, 'think them, really fairy tales!" She shuddered. "Perhaps not," she j murmured. "But I have heard enough ; of ' you detectives to know that you do not think a woman's fears exactly : evidence." "Still they might lead to evidence," ' suggested Kennedy. She looked at him, more startled than ever, for already he had. given her a Blight exhibition of his powers.;"Mr. Kennedy," Bhe exclaimed, "I I am positively afraid of you, afraid 'that every little thing I do may lead 'to something I don't intend." . There was a frankness about the remark that would have been flattering from a man, but from her excited sympathy. '."No," she went on, "I have nothing tangible- only my. feelings. I fear I must admit . .that my father had enemies, though who they are I cannot tell you. ; No, it is all in my heart -'-not in my head.1 There are tnose whom I dislike and there are those whom I like and trust.! You may call me foolish, but I cannot help trusting Mr. Lockwood". -. She had net meant to say his name, and Kennedy and I looked at her in surprise. . "' ' v "You seet";-8hevcontinued. "Every time I talk I say something, convey some impression' that is the opposite

of what I wish. Oh what, shall I do? Have I no one to trust?" She was crying. "You may trust me, Senorita," said Kennedy, in a low tone, pausing before her. "At least I have no other interest than finding the truth and helping you. There there. We have had enough today. I cannot ask you to try to forget what has happened. That would be Impossible. But I can

ask you, Senorita, to have faith faith that it will all turn out abetter, If you will only trust me. When you feel stronger then come to me. Tell me your fears or not whichever does you the most good. Only keep your mind from brooding. Face it all as you know your father would have you do." More Tomorrow.
