Labor Vote Cannot be Delivered Frequent attempts have been made in the

f "past to deliver the labor vote to

: invariably the effort was frustrated by the de-

j! cision of the workers to vote as American f ; citizens and not as members of one class of the

American citizenry. Returns m Indiana ana elsewhere show that identically the same thing happened Tuesday. This is as it should be. The American nation i. not made up of antagonistic classes, which clash on election day, but of men and women who put the welfare of the nation above that of class, and go to the polls to express their political preference and not their class feeling. Organized labor has been a boon to workers because in the past it has studiously refrained from arousing class feeling, avoided entangling alliances with political parties, and devoted its strength to obtain remedial legislation and fair working conditions for the members of its organizations. The overwhelming majority which was accorded the Republican ticket in the northern, eastern and western states proves conclusively that men and women, ignoring affiliations with unions, churches and societies, voted to further national interests and paid no attention to class, religion or other considerations. One must be impressed by the fact that the citizenship was actuated by the principles laid down by the founders of the republic when they instituted a government on this continent that was dedicated to equal rights and equal opportunities, and guaranteed to all a chance for the

Today's Talk . By George ?.1atthew Adams FREEDOM WITHIN When we feel right with ourselves, we are the freest. Within us at that time, there is a great expanse of freedom and ease. It is a long way to this freedom. But if you take the right road, it does r.ot seem long. o,--iiiriri with von every day

them coming over you, is to prepait the way to freedom within. And when you are free within, the whole world looks free! We are freest when we are kindest, most thoughtful, when our hearts l ultfo out most, and when we feel 'the dos:r? to serve to the greatest extent. It is then. also, that we are in cur greatest strength and that the nobleness of cur nature stands out clearest. freedom comes about through the desire to be broad aud generous and useful. The more you realize your freedom, the greater freedom you get. It is only as you take hold on things that thov come to belong to you. In reaching' out wc pet tin- feel of the expansion i truth and its eternal tones. Put vour hand over the warm heart of God" in the world, and it will not take you long lo understand why you arc hi're and why you ought to do the best you know all the time -and in in the freest way. Get free within and the world is yours! Good Evening By Roy K. Mou'ton Wo. are informed from official Fourcrs that t!ie cost of living is cornins; down, and wc note in thq next column that fresh eggs have risen to $1.20 a dosen and cheese to 48 cents n pound. If you dn't tare for eggs or chee-.o. you can ent butter, which has risen to S'O cents a pound, and if you need bread you can vol a pood X cent loaf tor l'j cents. All that , wo can hope is that the cost of living doesn't come ('.own any more. After reading over tho latest reports from the United States treasury, v.e arc of the opinion that it costs al-r.io.-l as much to run the government jus it does to run an apartment in New York. A dramatic critic, contrary to the popular notion, docs not like to pan shows. It only makes more work for l:im.-e!f when he does. He likes to ret ord a great hit, because then he l nows that he will not have to write up another show in that house all seaEon. Japan demands the island of Yap, which was our only reward for our services in behalf of humanity. This little controversy will be welcomed by verse writers the world over, with its possibilities of Yap, Jap, map. scrap, hip, -tap, snap. flap, nap, cap, slap, trap, sap, gap. rap so on ad infinitum with little rhymes to bite 'em.

development of talents and endowments under the protection of the law. They felt that no interests were to be served, no class encouraged in the selection of the representatives of the people, and so they voted for men who would enact legislation from the standpoint of the national good and not from that of the individual. The re-election of Governor Coolidge as chief executive of the state of Massachusetts after his firm stand for law and order in the policemen's

strike at Boston is a potent illustration that the rank and file of American citizens believe lit 1 1 A A 11 1 ' f

polls. His election as vice-president Tuesday substantiates the observation. In the face of sporadic manifestations of disorder and of preference shown to certain classes, we may sometimes believe that democracy has failed and that equal rights is merely a slogan and not a statement of fact. But invariably the common sense of the electorate of America asserts itself in time to prove conclusively that its faith in the fundamental doctrines of our republic is unshaken.

Edwin Wright Tatman Our neighboring city, Connersville, is mourning the death of one of its best liked citizens, Edwin W. Tatman, publisher of the News-Examiner of that city.

Tatman well, and liked him. He was a man of fine character and his friendship was valued highly by those so fortunate as to possess it. The News-Examiner truly reflected the ex

cellence of Mr. Tatman's character. Its news! and editorial columns have been conducted on a I high plane, and its influence has always been I

used for the best interests of its community, the state and the nation. Mr. Tatman's untimely death, therefore, is a distinct loss, not only to his own community and his many warm personal friends, but also to the press of Indiana, for he always upheld its highest ideals.

And others march in gay parade, and drink denatured lemonade, and make the welkin thrill; but tragedy is in my soul, for with a toothpick I must roll a peanut up the hill. I see glad faces in the street, and happy citizens I meet, without a care or fret; I sadly view the merry throng, for I must, wear my whiskers long, to pay a foolish bet. The noisy band is playeves biinaroiuea. rouna a diock, to pay a wager bad. They say our bulwarks are secure, and there'll be justice for the poor, and wrongs will be redressed; but I'm full of grief and dole, and all my hopes are in the hole, so wretchedly I guessed.

Report the condition to the board of health which can compel the owner to ir.ake the toilet eanitary. (2) Is it necessary to pay a license to run a small dry goods store or lunch counter? No. First Voter When was A.J. Beveridge born? October 6. 1S62. L- Q- (1) I would like to know What the "fjpntlpmpn'ci imwrnr-nt" between the United Stats and Japan is, and is there anything to which the "United States does not agree? The agreement is that Japan will not permit members of the Japanese working classes to come to the United States. Business men and students have the privilege, however, of coming to this country to study and travel. The United States objects to the "picture bride" feature, by which Japanese residents of this country are perartted to bring Japanese girls to this country to be married to them. Although the native Japanese cannot hold property in the United States, the children of these fathers and "picture brides" can; consequently vast areas of land in tVi P.ieiflle clntca nrf nlneed in the names of the babies, with their fathers as legally appointed guardians, which enables Ihem to evade the American law. Another method of evading the law prohibiting them from acquiring land is through the organization of stock companies by Japanese, who buy the stock of the company, which holds the title to the land. (2) How is the president or Franco chosen? The president is elected for sevn years, by an absolute majority of votes, by the senate and chamber of deputies united !n a rational assembly, or congress. ftendern may nlan mwr tn Htitlnn hv wrUlocr 1be rHnillimi Question finil JnnfffM parlnient.

As the vehicle took the leap its driver jumped or was flung out, but managed to catch on the broken railing. He hung for a horrid moment on the brink of death and then scrambled back to safety. "Merciful powers!" ejaculated a pedestrian below, "What a narrow escape!" Shucks!" returned the gent from Jimpson Junction who was on hand, "That wasn't no escape; it was just a trick of some kind. They can't fool me ! " Ragged little Tom Brown had been committed to juvenile hall, where he was immediately given a bath, clean i clothes, had his hair washed and cut short. His old clothes were burned. As his adenoids interfered seriously with his breathing, they were removed. iWhen he had recovered from the op eration the matron noticed that there was an unusually big and disfiguring wart at the end of his thumb. "Tom," she said "I'll see that this wart is removed today." A look of absolute disgust spread over Tom's face. "Gosh!" he exclaimed. "Don't you let a fellow keep anything here?" !

The poor qualily of the bread which tho people at present have to rat is stated to be the causp of extraordinary increase of intestinal affections, in the last week, and over which the medical faculty is very much concerned. A peculiar feature of the epidemicis that it is accompanied by skin eruptions similar to those caused by pellagra. Pellagra is generally believed to be caused by eating a poor grade of coin, and the bread as baked in Vienna, at present, contains 40 per cent corn flour and 20 per cent potato flour.

IND SATURDAY, NOV. 6, 1920.

Five Minutes with By JAMES WILLIAM Although William McKinley was described by his opponents as "a statesman with his ear to the ground," he failed to hear the warning rumble of the mighty conflict of forces which wa3 to shake the parties and the coun try io tneir toundattons in the ap- i proaching campaign of 1856, the most exciting In our political history. Until that great battle between gold and silver was full upon him, McKinley looked forward to a one-sided contest on the tariff question and an easy victory for himself as "the advance agent of prosperity" and the herald of "the full dinner pail." Protection had been his specialty, and naturally he preferred to prescribe his own favorite panacea for the ills of the country. On the s-ibiect of the gold standard, he was rather luke-! warm, having started cut in congress as a free silver man and having voted afterward for all the compromise silver legislation. Republican leaders generally and particularly those west of the Alleghenies dreaded to take a stand for gold in 189C. They had been timidly straddling the question for twenty years and throwing sops to the silver-! sentiment, and they shrank now from squarely facing the issue. The Ohio State convention nominated McKinley in March on a meaningless platform. On the eve of the St. Louis convention in June, he drafted for the national platform a money plank which warily shunned the word gold. Even after the convention had cast this aside and nominated him for president on a flat declaration for the gold standard, he still clung to the tariff as the main issue. "I am a tariff man. standing on a tariff platform." he said to his friends. "The money matter is unduly prominent. In thirty days you won't hear anything of it." In thirty days it was the only question that the people would talk about. Toward the end of August he reluctantly sidetracked protection and put gold first in his letter of acceptance. The Democrats had come out for free silver and Bryan was riding the high tide of his sensational campaign for 16-to-l. Silver men and silver states had bolted the Republican ticket, and it had become startlingly plain that McKinley must win the votes of hundreds of thousands of Cleveland Democrats, who were for cold, but who were also opposed to a high tariff. At McKinley's back in the fight stood Marcus Alonzo Hanna of Ohio This multimillionaire had transferred his genius for organization from the iron, coal and shipping industry when Grover Cleveland challenged in 1SS7 the protection which his great business enjoyed, and he had jumped into politics with a determination to put an Ohio protectionist in Cleveland's place.

manufacturing concerns had been for many yeare the ruling force In politics. They were the so-called "Invisible government," controlling legislation and the courts by controlling the nominating machinery of both parties in state and cation. A prudent business in those days took care to have Democratic as well as Republican partners or directors, and these saw that their respective parties put up "safe" candidates on "safe" platforms. Having thus assured themselves that their interests would not lose whichever side won, they contributed to the rival parties the money that enabled the politicians to conduct campaigns full of sound and fury, but signifying little. In the diEruption, of the Democratic party, the larger wing at the Chicago convention of 1896 slipped out of control of the "system," adopted a radical platform and proceeded to run wild The "interests" saw themselves threat ened for the first time with the lose of

political power, and that prospect alarmed them more than Bryan's slogan of 16-to-l. At thi3 critical Juncture Hanna stepped to the front, incorporating McKinley's candidacy on business principles, capitalizing the fears of the business world and inducing it to underwrite the campaign with a staggering fund. The swift tide that ran against the Rppublicans in July was turned in September; but money did not do it. The men who gave the money did it. They took off their coats and plunged in to save the Investment in Republican success, which Hanna had persuaded them to make, and their influence and example were worth more to him and McKinley than all their dollars. With only one special Interest behind him the silver mine owners Bry an was hauled to the voters. But Hanna hauled the voters to Canton by trainloads. delivering them f. o. b. t the candidate's lawn, where McKinley addressed the whole reading nation day after day without leaving his dooryard. At the same time millions and millions of campaign documents fell like snowflakes, covering the land with printed arguments and appeals. Almost 2,000,000 more voters came cut on election day than had voted only four years before. Gold won and McKinley was elected In the greatest referendum that ever has been held. in shape' Clothes 4500
