The New York Explosion The mysterious explosion in the heart Qf the financial district of New York and in proximity to the United States subtreasury and assay office still lacks a conclusive explanation. Federal officials are inclined to trace the ex

plosion to a radical bomb plot, and the head of a big detective agency gives support to the theory by announcing that he sent out warnings two

months ago against probable bomb outrages. Other investigators believe that a collision

between a truck of explosives and an automobile

may have caused the terrible blast.

Either explanation suggests the necessity of guarding against a repetition. If explosives are

being transported through the streets of New

York, it behooves that municipality immediately to adopt regulative measures so that the lives and property of its citizens will not be

jeopardized. On the other hand, if a bomb plot is respon

sible, a round-up of dynamiters and plotters is in

order. Although Wall street is the financial cen

ter of the United States, there are other great subsidiary centers whose security is threatened

by the same sinister force that exploded the bomb in New York. Radical sympathizers, complacently assuring themselves that fanatics sharing their beliefs would not resort to such dastardly measures, have a convincing proof of their error in the New York outrage.

Bomb outrages are boomerangs that react with tremendous force against the perpetrators. Blind fanaticism, wielding the torch and bomb, carries within itself the germs of its own destruction. Good citizenship is knit closer to

gether in a common bond of opposition after an attack on the stability of the social structure. Powerful resentment is kindled and solidified against the men and women who wantonly and uthlessly would destroy human life and damage property to vent their prejudice and gain their end.

Answers to Questions

The End of Outlaw Strike When striking switchmen of Chicago, who deserted their work in face of contrary orders from union headquarters, voted to abandon the strike and return tos work the other day, it marked a victory for organized labor. Responsible heads of the union warned them of the folly of striking and begged them to stay on their jobs until their grievances could be adjusted. Persuaded to do the contrary by irresponsible leaders, many deserted their posts, precipitating a transportation tie-up that cost the country millions of dollars. Throughout the controversy, conservative union heads tried to induce the men to return. In the negotiations that followed, these same

leaders refused to permit the representatives of the outlaw organization to participate in the conferences,' acting on the theory that they had forfeited their rights in the union. After weeks of idleness the deluded followers of these leaders began to see their folly. Now they are returning to work. Some of them have lost their valuable seniority rights, and others will not be taken back. All of them have lost wages that will total into the thousands. It was a hard lesson for them to learn, but the experience may teach them the wisdom of trusting their leaders and abiding by the judgment of men who have the real cause of labor at heart.

Today's Talk' By George Matthew Adams

TALK Talk is the water of living. Talk is also expression and expression is the color which furnishes the background to personality. All other things form but the trapp.ings, significant only in the man in hi3 entirety. All of us must outlet ourselves in talk. The one with a heavy heart must talk. He who is overjoyed by great news must talk. In the midst of doubt and questionings, talk comes in to clear and make plain. Talk renovates the mind and brings hearts together. Talk stirs the imagination and opens up a thousand roads for the thought to travel over. Talk is a sort of a pallet knife which mixes ell sorts of colors with which to paint the pictures of experience, incidents and cross-lights. Talk is able to cheer or chill. Talk is power! What do you talk about? How do you talk? When and where do you talk? You are both loved and judged by your talk. If we couldn't go to people and talk to them and have them talk to us, what a flood of dark days there would be! Dont save your talk. Let is out. But make it mean something. Make it carry something very fine that is of you. Make it stir the atmosphere of a dull day till it bristles with happy interest. Make it put a million stars and a full moon into an otherwise dark night. Not merely learn to talk but talk to learn!

Dinner Stories

Meeting an acquaintance who was looking rather dejected, Brown inquired the cause of the trouble. "I'vo been in Iho hands of the police," was Hie reply. "How's that, old fellow?" "Why. as I was walking down tho center of the road a man on ono side shot at a woman on the other. The bullet went through my arm and hit the woman. And as I was arrested, because it was through me the woman got shot."

quiring more time and cunning than the job deserves. The new exterminator Is a liquid which you blow from a bottle through a little tin blowpipe. Two or three puffs of it in a room will not only kill all the mosquitoes but will also exterminate the family cat and will peel all the wallpaper off the walls. If you blow one puff of it out of the window it will paralyze every mosquito within one mile of your house. The other day we were fooling with the thing on the front porch and, in a playful mood, pointed it at a Ford car which was passing. The poor insect gasped, turned over on its back, gave a few spasmodic shivers and passed away. That is an old story, of course, but everybody else who ever tried it on a Ford used insect powder. Our story bas added charm of being absolutely true. CROAKERS. The bullfrog sits upon the bank And croaks and croaks and croaks; Then in the water boldly dives And croaks as well as soaks. How different we are from the frog That croaks the croaker's call; We croak our little croak just once, And when we "croak" that's all. C. T. Barr.

Good Evening By Roy K. Moulton

So long as there are a few more common people than there are office holders, we will continue tohope that there may pome day be a change for the better. We have got hold of a new mosquito exterminator that beats anything else we have ever seen, and our experience as a mosquito victim has been long and meritorious. It long has been our custom to exterminate mosquitoes by catching them by the hind legs and holding them up in front of an electric fan until they died of pneumonia, but this Is a rather irksome method, re-

S. E. I should like to know who are entitled to receive and wear the Mexican Service and- Mexican border medals. I served on the border six months in 1920. The Mexican Border medal was given to all members of the lar army who served on the Mexican border during the year 1916

and 1917 and to members of the regular army army who served on the Mexican border patrol during the same years, prior to April 6, 1917. The Mexicans Service medal was awarded to all officers and men who took part in the Vera Cruz expedition of 1919, in the punitive expedition under Gen. Pershing in 1916-1917 and other authorized expeditions into Mexico which occurred about the Bamts time, and in the various engagements along the border since 1917 in which there were casualties among the American forces. The last incident for which this medal was authorized was the expedition under General Erwin, which entered Mexlcp at Juarez. Application -tor medal should' be made to the adjutant general's office, war department, Washington, D. C. Reader How long did ' the late James Wilson serve as a cabinet member? He was secretary of agriculture under President McKinley, Roosevelt and Taft. He held the record of having served the longest as a cabinet member in the history of the country. E. J. R. Does Australia work up much of the wool grown there? Although one of the largest wool growing countries of the world there are few textile factories in that country. A movement now on foot there seeks

to the establishment of factories so that within ten years much of the wool can be worked up at home. Readers may nbtnln unrnvrrrn to nueMlona by wrKInc the Palladium (luesttou nnd Annfr department. All quentlons ahould he wrl'len plainly and briefly. Aniweri 'will be Riven briefly.

PRIZES TO BE GIVEN UNION COUNTY BOYS

FARMERS OF BUSH ENTERTAIN 12,000 AT A BIG PICNIC RUSHVTLLE, Ind., Sept. 18. The farmers of Rush county and their wives entertained the business men, their families and friends, of the county, at a fried chicken dinner In the city parks Friday. Twelve thousand people were feasted at the outdoor picnic. The crowd was fed in an hour and a half. Each of the 12 townships In the county had booths in which fried chieken and the rest of the eatables were piled highly. The throngs passed along the counters. Business in the county was suspended for the day. More than 3,000 chickens were used to serve tho people. Last March the business men of tho county invited the farmers to Rushville, where 1,700 free dinners were served, and the Rush County Farmers' association repaid the business men today. John N. Dyer Speaks. The city park was thronged to Its capacity and 2,500 automobiles were counted in the parking space. John N. Dyer, a farmer and ex-Rotary governor, was the principal speaker at the coliseum this afternoon. Mr. Dyer pleaded for a perfect organization among the farmers, declaring that the security of the nation depends upon agriculture, and that the so-called Board of -Trade in Chicago, which regulates the prices on grain, was "nothing more than common eamhlers."

"Labor and capital are both organ

ized, Mr. Dyer saici, "ana yet tne oig epst industry on earth, that of acricul

ture, is not on an equal basis with

them. Too long already have you

been the easy mark and it Is time to awake, gird on your ar.mbr and join in with the farmers in establishing a perfect organization, not only in Indiana, but the entire country." He compared labor, capital and agriculture as being like a tripod upon which the earth stands, and all interdependent upon each other. Mr. Dyer

maintained that agriculture is the one

basic, fundamental industry, upon

which the others depend largely. Production Is Need of Hour. "More work and more production Is What thla onnntrv neeria nnw " Mr

Dver flssertprf. "tnr nrndiirtlnn la thfl

need of the hour, with no production

oi siacKers. He accused the labor Industries of paying higher wages, and taking the farm laborers into cities, leaving the farm work to be done by tho old men and young boys, because the fanners cannot meet the demands in wages offered by Industries. He cited the tractor manufacturers for inducing farm laborers to leave the farms, and In turn expected to sell their product to the farmers as labor-saving means. He congratulated the farmers forie spirit of co-operation between the country folks and business men of the city. Mr. Dyer was preceded on the program by several entertaining numbers. Including the Hoosier Harmony Three of Indianapolis, Sidney Jerome, comedian of Indianapolis, readings by Mrs. Evaline Outland of Carthage and selections by the Arlington band.
