portions, the Democrats will find themselves pressed closely to explain why one of the big men of their party has tired of the autocratic dominance of the White House and come out boldly in an anti-Wilson statement.
The Democratic Ruction Political observers who believed the Democratic convention would be a lovefeast now predict that William F. McCombs, former chairman of the Democratic national committee, created a furore when he charged that President Wilson's assumption of authority had been autocratic. .Homer S. Cummings tried to vitiate the effect of the utterance by describing it as "one of those sporadic criticisms that are a negligible factor
in our affairs." But Mr. Cummings cannot efface the effect of the McCombs statement by lightly dismissing it as unworthy of serious consideration. McCombs, one of the commanding figures of the party, manager of President Wilson's 1912 campaign, and a stalwart in the Democratic organization, is not to be brushed aside with a wave of the hand. He will make his influence felt at
After the Horse is Stolen The National Committee on Natural Gas Conservation has issued for the guidance of the state utility commissions a series of suggestions that would alleviate the scarcity of natural gas in
! those states where the fuel is still obtainable.
The warning has to be accepted by Hoosiers in the same spirit with which an owner accepts
the advice of providing his stable door with a
lock and key after his horse ha3 been stolen
Natural gas in Indiana for all practical purposes is a thing of the past. The supply that reaches eastern Indiana is piped from West Virginia
fields. Only a few months will elapse before this also will cease. Conservation of natural gas should have begun twenty years ago. Indiana once had copious wells, but a shameful waste of the product soon exhausted nature's bounty. Escaping gas was lighted and permitted to burn day and night. Gigantic torches of burning ga3 illuminated the country in hundreds of places. A complacent population, satisfied with present good and unmindful of the future, did nothing to prevent the waste. Today we are paying for it in high prices for fuel. America has been a profligate waster of the

Today's Talk By George Matthew Adams
GET READY Most people fail because they were not ready for the thing which they attempted. Many a man has been mined by a good job, or too many of them. On the other hand, if you will look into the matter, you will find that the successful folks are those who worked hard at small jobs and irksome task3 till they had greatly outgrown them. Then they were ready for bigger
things. Get ready! It is better to have too much equipment than too little, on entering the serious contest of life. You may not be called upon to use it all at the start maybe not for years some of it but if you have it ready, you,are not going to lose any time or effort. A thing which I have noted about masterful men is that they reach with such ease for the things wanted and get them.

PERSONAL PREJUDICES I am not wildly enthusiastic over Russian dancing. I dislike a man who says "By Jove". I would nither hear him use a regular cusa word. I would rather see Willie Collier
once than Fatty Arbuckle three times. I don't believe a man is necessarily a numbskull just because he is in congress. I like to see my name in large type in the newspapers as often as possible, wherein I differ from a possible one per cent of other people. Like Charlie Ray and though it may bo lese majeste, I think Dorothy Gish is the best actress in her family. I never go out to lunch with, a man who calls me by my first name the first time he sees me. I like my freedom, but I don't like it well enough to break the eighteenth amendment and go to Fort Leavenworth.

WINCHESTER, Ind The cases of the state against Denny Nichols, Halford Johnson, Harrold Stump, Earl Rust, Eva Nichols and Kathryn Brown, all of Muncie and vicinity, who are charged with breaking into the store of Walter Oliphant, at Losanteville, on May 9, and taking property valued at several hundred dollars, were to go to the jury late Tuesday. Denny Nichols was the first to take the stand, and ho became greatly confused when cross examined. The defense was trying to break the confession of Earl Rust, who said that he with Halford Johnson broke into the store and took the loot to Muncie. Nichlos testified that Johnson was at home in bed at the time of the burglary, but became confused when crossexamined. Harrold Stump was the next witness
to take the stand and he was followed bv the father of Halfdro Johnson. "FOUNTAIN CITY, Ind. A Reynolds

Hair Kept Beautifully Wavy, Indoors or Out!
If you will apply a little liquid silmerine before doing up your hair it will have a prettier wave and curl
than probably it has ever had. The waviness will look perfectly natural, and the hair will be sleek and glossy like plush. It will remain in curl the loagest time, regardless of heat, wind or moisture, and you won't have to be continually fussing with loose strands or flying ends. Liquid silmerine is, of course, entirely harmless. It leaves no sticky, greasy or streaky trace. It is also an excellent dressing for the hair, keeping it delightfully soft and silky. A few ounces from your druggist will last for weeks. It is best applied with a clean tooth brush, drawing this down the full length of th hair. Ad ?i .lament.
