THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND, IND., THURSDAY, SEPT. 8, 1921.

The Defeat of the Amendments
Indiana voters again proved their interest in good government when they voted down all the
proposed amendments to the constitution, ex
cepting the first one. This amendment, besides its equal franchis
provision, enable's the legislature to pass laws preventing the alien from voting until he has become a full-fledged citizen. This is as it should
be, for no person should have the right of par
ticipating in an election until he is admitted into
full citizenship.
The vote on the other amendments demon
strates again that citizens are not going to be stampeded into changing basic laws or adopting innovations at the behest of persons or interests who like to have changes merely for the sake of the novelty of trying something new. The record made Tuesday by the voters should convince the most skeptical that the Indiana constitution needs no tinkering and revamp
ing, and that the people know that their rights are adequately protected under its provisions. If there were something wrong with the constitution, if it prevented the people from enjoying life, libertyand the pursuit of happiness,, if it served sinister interests instead of the mass of the people, you can rest assured that Indiana citizens would have voted for the amendments. Men and women in Indiana refuse to get excited over straw men which are erected occasionally by well meaning but misguided persons and organizations. Campaigns of education, shouting and yelling, will not stampede them into believing that there is something wrong when their own common sense tells them that they are happy, that they are enjoying the fullest measure of indi
vidual liberty, that their rights are safeguarded adequately, and that they have an equal oppor
tunity to enjoy the blessings of our institutional life.
Why, asks the average Hoosier, should I
change the constitution under which I have pros
pered many years?
No cogent reasons were advanced in a cam
paign that had been waged for many months. Citizens understood what was to be voted on, and the way they voted on each amendment proves that they know what they are doing.' Far from showing a weakening of our capacity for self-government, the election demonstrated fully our ability to govern ourselves. The individual went to the polls as a self -determining agent, voting his own sentiments. He did not go there because sentiment had been
organized by groups and communities, but because as an individual citizen he wanted to ex
press his own views. "The result of the election," says the Indi
anapolis Star, "is calculated to reassure one on the merits of popular government, which comes into distrust occasionally, when we think of the
quality of the men chosen for office, sometimes
through appointment and perhaps more often through popular elections. The lack of interest in these amendments indicates that, so far as
these particular offerings are concerned, the people declined to get excited over undertakings
to invoke new laws for results that can only be
obtained through steady and intelligent work
ings of the laws we have. The instinct is one of conservatism and intelligent workings, of the laws we have." The Indianapolis News takes a similar view when it says : "One thing, however, is clear, and that is that the people are pretty well satisfied with the present constitution as a whole and not interested in tinkering with it. There was no discontent that could be traced to it. On the contrary, the feeling was that we were doing very well under our fundamental law, and therefore that there was no particular reason for bothering about it. If there had been any sense
of wrong suffered as a result of the constitution,
the vote would have been large, whereas it was very small. At most, the feeling that the attempt was not so much to cure evils as to improve something that was already good."

Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON
CANNED VOICES The singers of the olden time were silenced when they reached the tomb; no voice, majectic and sublime, emerges from the final gloom. We hear of human nightingales whose singing gained our fathers' praise; their fame still lives in bearded tales come down from dead and distant days. But when they left this life of stress, their music ceased forevermore; we'll never hear their tones unless it be upon some other shore. But now dead singers leave behind the record of their skill and power; my timeworn phonograph I wind, and hear Caruso by the hour. A hundred years from now, I wot, such music mills will still be wound, and that grand voice will hit the spot, and charm the listeners around. And
though Caruso lies asleep, throughout the world, on all its shores, in humble cot and stately keep, his voice still
rolls, and throbs, and soars. To me it seems a wondrous thing that when a tnan is in his grave, I still can hear
him grandly sing great songs, triump
bant, strong and brave. I would that
phonographs were made ere Eve first
struck the breakfast gong, and Aflam,
in a sumflecked glade, sent forth the race's primal song. Great singers liv
ed in every age. and when they, died
their voices ceased; oh, could I hear
the psalmist-saee, and eke the Wise
Men from the East:
Dinner Stories
Two Minutes of Optimism By HERMAN J. STICH
Says the bachelor editor of the Wathena Times: "How can you expect girls to marry and be satisfied with themselves. There is always something, complexion, weight, height, the color of the eyes or hair, that does not suit them. And it is a case where 'murder will out,' for they just can't keep from telling where they themselves think they could be improved. Except for that, easily fooled men might readily imagine them tc be perfect. A wise Providence seems to have decreed that tbey should tota
fair, to the extent of warning men of their imperfections." "I want to see my father very particular," said a boy to the gate-keeper rt a cricket match where his father was acting as umpire. He was passed through and hurried up to his father." "Mother says she wants that packet of sandwiches back," he said. "Sandwiches back!" exclaimed the surprised parent. "I ate them an hour a o." "Then you will have to clean your shoes with salmon and shrimp paste." replied the youngster. "Mother put the brown shoe polish in those sandwiches."
WHAT CARNEGIE KNEW "It is intelligent overwork that does it," once remarked Carnegie, "and
not inspiration."
Intelligent overwork DersDiration it is the Drice not only of sunerior-
ity, but of sheer existence; it is the condition on which the rich man gains
.n appetite for his dinner and the poor man a dinner for his appetite.
Taglioni, the greatest dancer of her day. used to rehearse her stens
daily for hours at a time till she fell 'unconscious from exhaustion and had
to be sponged and resuscitated for her evening performance.
Inspiration is a poor platform on which to stand and expect much mea
sure of success. It is perspiration that drives businesses and humans to
tne top.
Inspiration is short-lived; its fire burns, bright hut brief; its force is transcient, uncertain, undependable. It is the hourly, daily, steady, unre
lenting drip of perspiration that dissolves difficulties, crumples obstruc
tions, makes disappointment an incident and spur to further and fruitful effort. Inspiration is the occasional thought. Perspiration is the constant thinking, the structure evolved of brain and brawn, the success that is built of failure; -for it is struggles with adversity that transform ordinary men Into successful men. Inspiration is the easily, frequently smothered spark. Perspiration is the all-enveloping, inextinguishable flame, the sense and the security of power, the impelling force that you are as good as the best of them, the conviction that life stands eager and t ready to give you what you by honest efforts strive for. Inspiration sometimes gives a man a good idea. Perspiration gives him as many as he needs, makes them facts, creates the spirit and the things that breed and bring success. Dame Forune withholds only what you yourself spurn. She is too proud to tender her tidbits where they are unearned. Only perspiration can earn them. Genius, which is the capacity to conquer defeat, has been justly adjudged 99 per cent perspiration 1 per cent or LESS inspiration. Genius is possessed by a negligible modicum of the world's population. The great majority of our successful folk owe their ration and station to industrially applied common sense plenty of perspiration. In these days of countless opportunities, the empty, scoreless career is
the aimless, careless career. Only the mentally incapacitated may be pardoned failure. The man or woman of average brains can chalk up success if he or she will take the trouble. "It is intelligent OVERWORK that does it," said Carnegie. CARNEGIE KNEW.

CLIMB OUT OF YOURSELF I Each of us is an agent in this world. But not wholly for ourselves. In fact the more we center on our own individual happiness, the less happy we are. But the minute we begin to plan for the happiness of others, we ourselves grow happier. None are so unhappy as those who have nothing to do nobody to look after but themselves. Too many live individual lives. Lives within themselves. Climb out of yourself! The great man is the one with the most and the largest number of varied interests. To such a one development comes increasingly day by day. I recently spent a few days with a very dear friend of mine. He lives in a large city. He is small in frame but with an unusually 'hig heart much bigger than his head which is filled with no mean intelligence. But as I walked his streets with him, I noted that nearly everyone called him by his first name. Children knew him, old men and young men everybody seemed to love him. I played golf with him. Everybody knew him there and were proud of the chance to play with him. The caddies fought for a chance to carry his golf bag. I noted that when he came to the club house he marked his caddie's card "Excellent!" Isn't it fine to live in other people? When Frances YVillard died, I remember that I went to my room and locked the door and cried until my heart ached. Here was a woman whom I had never seen or heard speak but of whose beauty of character and great usefulness I had read from the time that I could read at all. And when she went away, I felt that a mother had disappeared. If we climb out of ourself we have to climb into somebody else's life. And that is what we should do. Into just as many people's lives as we can. And we can live a complete life only by helping to make other lives complete. Climb out of yourself.
