TUB STAR OF TRUTH.
The "Star of Indianapolis" does us the honor, this morning, to suggest that we have misstated the purport of their editorial on Marshall of some days since. The Herald stated that ihe Star had repudiated Its attacks upon Marshall. The Star holds that it lias repudiated nothing. Overlooking the polite language of The Star editorial, which sounds as if it had been written by a newsboy and not by a member of the staff, we would say that evidently The Star has failed to appreciate the meaning of its earlier attacks upon Marshall or of Its late editorial. looking back over the files of The Star we find that Marshall is accused of being the brewery candidate, of pandering to that interest. hater he Is accused of having no strength of character, of vaoilating in his course, of failing to answer questions directly put to him by Manly in order to deceive the people and t > carry water on both shoulders. These attacks were not upon the Democratic party hut directly upon the character of Marshall. He has been represented by The Star as the conscious and willing candidate of the brewers, whether the Star so intended to represent him or not. Now The Star declares that he was not the candidate of the brewers, that he was not a weakling in character, and where before it had pretended to believe that Marshall's election would he the ruin of the temperance cause in the state it now expresses faith In his adherence to this cause. The Star's intentions may have been good in both cases, but the meaning of the articles, as understood by everyone, is plain. After the Star's articles appeared a Repuhli in came into The Herald office and offered his apologies to the Democrats and wrote Mr. Marshall an apology, declaring that lie had been misled by The Star, and now that the Star had told the truth he was sorry for the attitude he had taken. The Star's article, as understood by all its readers, meant not a bit of congratulatory buncomb, but an attempt to square ittelf with many of its outraged readers. Congratulating an opponent upon his victory is one tiling, calling him a liar and a blackgaurd today and eulogizing him tomorrow is another. The Star should first review its course for the last month and then, if it fails to understand its own writings inquire of some one outside the office what people have taken its writings to mean. Perhaps The Star intends, like the Dutchman, to be taken for what it means, not what it says, and the meaning is clear to none but The star. But then what would you exlied from the author of the polite i

RALPH MOSS.
The election of Ralph Moss, Democrat, by a large majority in a district normally Republican by a good surplus, is illustrative of sentiment, not only in this district but in all the districts of the state. The people of Indiana want a change. It must be acknowledged that some of them were afraid of Bryan. The vicious personal attacks made upon him under ‘‘scare heads,” the coercion of manufacturers and railroads, who said to them men that a vote for Bryan meant a vote for no work, had its effect. But the people did not want

So far as giving temperance any moral support even his friends acknowledge that his record made tills impossible. Still the Renubllcans were able to gather many into line on the temperance question whom they could not otherwise have irought to the polls. We believe hat with this question out of the fight Watson would not be even as trong a candidate as he was. The nachine which gave him hi-s mminaion last spring is broken.

It is suggested that since it has
been found expedient to appoint a receiver for the Indianapolis Star that its finances may be conducted in a business manner, that it would now also be wise to appoint a censor whose business it would be to see that the editorial staff contradict each other as little as possible, es-
pecially on political matters,

A Statement.

has frightened prosperity from country. As a matter of fact election of Taft has had and can have no immediate effect on a situation which is and has been continuously in the hands of the same men and the same party that will control it after Taft's inauguration. But the most foolish talk is that of the socalled temperance element in this state. Said a temperance Republican yesterday, “I have signed remonstrances all my life, but I will never sign another. If the temperance people will repudiate their principles and vote for Marshall they will get no more help from me.” We note something the same assertion in the press reports from many parts of the state. Such talk shows a lack of balance and sanity. Because honest men estimated Watson at his true worth and refused to believe all the vaporings of the now repudiated Haniy, and insisted on voting for a gentleman instead of a politician. It does

He goes to Washington pledged to look carefully to the interests of the people, and we are confident that these pledges will not be forgotten, as was the case with Watson, Landes and many Republican Congressmen. Putnam County congratulates itself upon the part played
in the election of this man.
WATSON’S POSITION.
It is declared in some quarters that James Ell Watson will again be the candidate of the Republican party for Governor of Indiana in 1912. We are inclined to think that neither Watson nor his party will look with favor upon this proposition. It is w’ell known that Watson was not choice of the rank and file of

cess. It will now be time for those far-seeing politicians in Greeneastle, who followed the Star's lead in denouncing Marshall, to revise their opinion in harmony with the facts. A number of men who knew Watson's record for political buncomb were either fooled by it, or willingly swallowed it knowing it false. It Is now time that they look up the real facts in the case and cease to hide their head in the sand of political lies.

Hi ability, his manlines \ his r rvice to his pn’-rv all demand that his party honor him if it be within that party's power. The people of Indiana, I am sure, will delight in bestowing that honor upon him, and I shall do what

The suggestion that Roosevelt be sent to the United States senate from New York is not meeting with that loud and prolonged applause that was expected. The position the President took in the laot campaign, his partisan attacks upon men and measures, his forgetfulness of the "square deal.” his renewed friendships with some of “The malefactors of great wealth" have tended to shake the faith of many people In the usefulness of Roosevelt in the senate. It is probable that, the applause fail-
