MARSHALL SMS HE Governor of. Indiana Formally Notified of His Nomination for the Vice Presidency DEMOCRACY DEFINED BY HIM Rule of the People Not Essentially Rule by the People—He Be 14 eves Return of His Party to Power Would Right Prevailing Wrongs. Indianapolis, Ind., Aug. 20.—Governor Marshall was formally notified this afternoon of his nomination for the ▼lce presidency by the national Democratic convention. The notification committee, headed by Judge Alton Parker, was received at the state fair grounds at 2 o’clock and the chairman made a brief address. In accepting tlfe honor of the nomination, ' Governor Marshall jsttiti in part: \-- It will be well for the voterjto clear ep some hazy definitions. 'We have for many years been entertaining a belief founded upon no fact whatever, that Democracy and Republicanism represent different ideas of government. The Republican has looked upon the Democrat as a man opposed to the government. The Democrat has looked upon the; Republican as a man opposed to the people’s rule and in favor . of aristocratic sway. It is time for us to remember that Democracy is not a system of government. Indeed, Democracy may find its expression in any one of numerous systems. The rule of the people is. not essentially rule by the people. By their votes, even when Democracy has unfolded to full manhood suffrage, the people may have a monarchical form of government. The people’s rule does not depend upon the number of votes nor’necessarily upon the system of government under which they vote. Goo<j or bad government must go back to good or bad citizenship, to intelligent or ignorant, to honest or dishonest, electors. I venture the assertion that if the electoral franchise were now granted to all the citizens of Russia, the Little Father would again be crowned in Peter’s City. “Classes” in America. The historic Democratic party of America had its inspiration and its aspiration in the life and conduct of its great founder. It is time now to have a perfect concept of that Democracy, for. in recent years, we have divided ourselves into three classes and the classification has been made not by the heart-throbs of men but by their social condition. We have those who are immeasurably rich and who are looking for more, and we have tiwse who are unutterably poor and wno are growing poorer. Between these extremes, we have a great middle class, living e well and reasonably content except 'ff the uncertainty of not knowing whether they are to rise Into the first class or sink into the third. ' Many have assumed that only |he unutterably poor and those sinking into that class were Democrats, and that the Immeasurably rich and the climbers were Republicans. But these divisions have not been logical. Republican “Senile ~6ementla.” This campaign calls upon some for Justice, upon others for charity, upon all for patriotism. It does not call for the bandying of epithets nor for an appeal to the personal. We may safely leave to that senile dementia which has seized the so-called Republican party the personalities of this campaign. Its unfitness to rule the republic is disclosed by its inability to keep its temper. It was cohesive so far as its leadership was concerned while it was engaged in looting the public, but even its leaders are now disorganized while quarreling over the loot Though a majority of the people have been voting the Republican ticket and have been assuming thereby that the majority would rule, the disgraceful btt purifying scenes which have been enacted recently in Republican conventions disclose that a large number of those who have been vot*ng the Republican ticket are Democrats at heart. These scenes disclose further that we have been mistaken In some of our conclusions touching government in America. We have yielded a quiet assent to the proposition' that a majority is all-powerful and' that a minority has no rights which a majority is bound to respect. But now we know that the theory of the historic Democratic party, that it Is the right of a majority to rule but only within constitutional limitations and without the usurpation of a single inalienable right of a single individual. 18 correct. Majority Becomes Minority. It is only when majorities thus rule that governmental machines move without friction. The right of a majority to thus rule must always be conceded. I wonder, however, if it has dawmed upon the sober second thought of this people that it 1s k possible for a majority to be a minority and that it is equally possible for a minority to be a majority. At first blush. It would seem that the officials elected by the plurality of votes become the representatives of the majority and that as such, they rule. But I am not in error when I declare that It is not the mere number of votes

Paean to Pie.' . A pie is an expression of the soul, and longings of the heart blended in —Cakes and fragments, a combination of the smiles of the cook, the song sne sings and the grace of her white arms. These are inherent in the perfect pie. They belong to the divine afficntles which Chicago can not appropriate. because it is given over to materialism, ice cream and salad, the mere formalities and shells of life. How much happier this world would *e If everybody who made pies could r

which determines a majority tn America, in the sense of having the power to formulate the policy, enact the legislation and control the government, and I point to the election of 1908 for proof. The protest es every man who voted for President Taft and who is now- dissatisfied with the president’s management of public affairs proves that for four years a minority has been the majority in America.. The social condition which we call Democracy and which finds its avenue of expression at the polls through our party, is unalterably opposed to special privilege whether granted by the law or seized by ruthless ambition. It is true the mother of all special privilege is'the high protective tariff. All who voted the Democratic ticket at the last presidential election were unalterably opposed to this system of unjust taxation and a sufficient number of those who voted the Republican ticket were likewise convinced of its iniquity to make an overwhelming majority against it. Save a favored few, all were agreed that relief, to a greater or less extent, should be afforded to the people from the unjust exactions of this sytem. AU knew that we could not educate the people of America indiscriminately’, enlarge their views of life and happiness and then by the high cost of living deprive them of their pleasures without making of American life a seething caldron of discontent. Theoretically speaking, therefore, the majority of votes, having put a party in power upon v platform, pledged to relieve the people of their burdens, has been ruling under constitutional limitations. But this is not so- Immediately after the election the minority became the majority in the sense tifat it assumed control of legislation with reference to special privilege. All the members of the Democratic party 'and all the protesting members of the Republican party have been in the minority when it came to counting votes where the count fixed the cost of living, it may be said that this is a mere accident of politics, a single illustration, and that it will not occur again. But it is nb accident. It is only one of the many illustrations. It simply discloses the utter folly of & man remaining a member of a party when the party policy ceases tp voice his inner spirit. The Republican party does not recede now from its protective theory, its return to powder will mean again the rule of a minority and the theoretical idea of Democracy will continue to be the practical aristocracy of special privilege in this country. Choice for the Voter. . The voter who cannot satisfy himself this year js indeed censorious. Eliminating the 'verbiage of platforms, taking their substance and viewing the candidates placed on them, the voter who believes that the cost of production at home and abroad should be equalized to the manufacturer of this country and who wants an oligarchy to rule, may vote the straight Republican ticket; the voter who believes in a similar protective theory but who prefers to an oligarchy that the president shall be the state, may vote the Progressive ticket; the voter who believes this government should be turned into a socialism, may vote the Socialistic ticket; the voter who thinks that church and state are not separate in America and that the people have a right to settle religious questions and to determine by ballot what is good and what is bad, may vote the Prohibition ticket; and all those who insist that it is not the business of the government to equalize the cost of production at home and abroad to the manufacturer until it equalizes the difference in the purchase price to the consumer at home and abroad, who believes that the only equalization justifiable in our government is the equalization of opportunity, who thinks that public office is a public trust, w’ho does not b&lieve that disgruntled and defeated politicians are genuine reformers, and who think that reforms are not born with sore toes, may vote the Democratic ticket. I respectfully urge all those who are opposed to special privilege to ally themselves this year with the historic Democracy, the cornerstone of whose edifice is the Declaration of Independence and the keystone of which is the Golden Rule. At Baltimore, it proved its right to be because there it arose and by its proposed policy met the needs and wants of a people. Results of Economic Injustice. It is idle for a thoughtful man in America, whether millionaire or pauper, to longer play the ostrich. Safety does not consist in hiding one’s head in th® sands of either sentiment or hope. It is foolish for the vastly rich to keep on insisting that more and more shall be added to their riches trough a spacious system of special legislation ostensibly enacted to run ’he government, in reality enacted to loot the people. It is worse than ignorance for them to smile at the large body of intelligent Americans who regard themselves fortunate if the debit and credit accounts of life balance at ■he end of each year; and to assume hat the mighty many, who are becom•ig convinced that that social system vhichwe call Democracy is but a glitering generality, will long endure the industrial slavery being produced. The our has- cOme when patriotism must consist in something more than eulogies upon the flag. Whether voting the ticket or not, nen everywhere looking upon the awful Injustice of this economic system are becoming socialistic in theory if not in conduct. And shall any fair minded man say that if it redounds to he interests of the people of this country that a hundred men should control its business to the good of everyone, that there is anything fallacious in the theory that government in-

I have never been able to convince myself that either system would not cast a pall over human action and dull the tives which have heretofore moved mankind to the very loftiest endeavor and produced what I conceive to be the most perfect system of government ever devised by the brain Os man since that far-off theocracy of the Jew went down beneath his demand for the pomp and splendor of earthly power. And yet, I do not hesitate to say that if it be impos#ble to restore this Republic to its ancient ideals, which I do not believe, and I must make the ultimate choice between the paternalism of the few and the socialism of the many, count me and my house with the throbbing heart of humanity. Three Grades of Citizens. The discontent in Republican ranks is Democratic discontent. How much of it has reached the point • where wearied with the bad workings of a good system, it is willing to topple that system over and try something new, I cannot prophesy. But I am quite sure that whatever badges men may wear in America this year, whatever ballots they may cast and what* ever battle-cries they may utter, there are but three grades of citizens The first grade is made up of theYavored few, their hangers-on and their beneficiaries, who think the eagle is upon the dollar, not as an emblem of liberty but as an emblem of power and whc look upon government as an annex to their business affairs; these ar* they who in the past years of Repub lican misrule have turned the tempi* of constitutional into a mon: ey-changers mart and have made ol the co-ordinate branches of government obeisant lackeys of the jingling guinea. The second grade consists of those whose outlook upon life has been en larged by the civilization under which we live, who have been taught by th* school and the college, by the pres* and the magazine, who appreciate and enjoy the good things of life, whose horizon has been enlarged and whose capacity for joy and sorrow has beer increased. Conditions have become unbearable to them. They hesitate tc hope for reform so often has it been promised to them and so often has it been denied. They have reached the point where, in the struggle for that which they believe- to be right, they are willing to destroy the ideals of the Republic. How many there are of these, I do not know, but I do know that special privilege in the Republic Is breeding them day by day like rabbits in a warren. Old-Fashioned Democrats. • The third grade of citizens it pleases me to call old-fashioned constitutional Democrats. These are they who believe that the equality of mankind does not consist in an equality of brain and brawn but in an equality whereby every man. native and for-eign-born. has an Inalienable right to exercise all of his ability in getting on in the world just so he realizes that in getting on he owes it to himself, to his family and to the Republic to see to it that he gets on honestly and that he does not prevent any other man from obtaining the Reward of his honesty and enterprise. These oldfashioned Democrats believe in making money, but they believe that every dollar made should be so clean that an infant may cut its teeth upon it. They hold that It is no part of government to boost one man and to boot another, and that any system of government which enables one man to taks advantage of another is not a system under which a Democratic condition of life can thrive. They hold that from age to age. social and economic conditions change, but that the great principle of the equality of all men before the law’ can never change while time shall last, and that the honest Interpretation of this great principle in statutory enactment, judicial construction and executive conduct, will take from the life of a people the mighty avarice of the few, bind up the broken hearts of the many and loose the bonds of all who are in slavery to wrong, injustice and Ignorance. If I doubted that the return of the historic Democratic party to power would fail to right the wrongs of industrial life, to wipe out the injustices of legislation ---Kid to preserve the opportunity of every man for happiness then my voice, now weak; would be silent. It I did not believe that, in sofar as human agency can, this party of ours will promote the brotherhood of mankind, I would here and now repudiate it. But believing I do that the Republic had its origii tn an inspiration which did not come from the mere brain of a mere man but sprang from the heart of humanity, believing that this age more than any which has preceded it calls for conscience and brotherhood in governmental affairs;, hoping that every sacrifice of mind and body and personal good which has been made, is a guaranty of the perpetuity of this, the latest and greatest experiment upon the part of a Democracy to w’ork out its ideals in government; and trusting that the God of Washington, the founder, and of Lincoln, the preserver, will still be the God of the republic, and will not permit his chosen people to forever wander in the wilderness of legislative sin, I accept upon its platform, the nomination of the Democratic party for vice president of the United States. And may my right hand forget her cunning and my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth if in all my gettings I fall to get that greatest gift —wisdom and understanding to know the heart-break and the need of our common humanity , <

NOTED HOTEL ENDS

St. Louis Loses Landmark in Passing of the Southern. Hostelry That Was Built Just After the Civil War and Has Housed Most Famous of Nation Goes Out of Business. St. Louis. Mo. —The Southern hotel, the oldest place of its kind in St. Louis, and one of the best known in America, is no more. . The hotel has remained true to the tradition of its founders. It was designed tfe a hostelry of the first class and it has never been anything else. Th® history of the Southern hotel is closely interwoven with that ot St. Louis, its fame is not confined to its own city, state and nation. its spacious lobby, its wide corridors, its commodious rooms, its luxurious furnishings and its air ot aristocracy have been enjoyed and commented on by men and women from all nations. The Southern hotel was rebuilt on the site of the original Southern hotel, erected in 1865. Before the old building was destroyed by fire the night of April 11, 1877, it was the most pretentious caravansary here. It sheltered' many notables. It was there, in the early ’7os, that the Grand Duke Alexis was entertained when he visited America as the royal represntative. of the Russian government. While the Southern was sheltering the grand duke it was also affording a temporary home far Lydia Thompson and a bevy of her famed English blondes, who had created a sensation in America after making a conquest ot the old world. > Lydia and her cohort! were disporting themselves at the Olympic, then, as now; just across the street. A grand banquet was spread by the grand duke’s orders, and after feeding the blondes Alexis decorated the fair Lydia with a regal bracelet that was the talk of the town. All St. Louis eyes were centered on the Southern on the occasion of the first visit to this city of Lily Langtry, whose beauty had captivated the Prince of Wales, afterward Edward VII. No sooner had the luggage of the Jersey Lily been deposited in her palatial suite than there appeared on

CUPID’S VICTIMS ARE ROUTED Girl Flees From Mother's Grasp and the Would-Be Husband Follows— Couple Finally Lost In Throng. Denver.—Although Cupid’s aim had been perfect and his arrow had pierced the heart of pretty Margaret Ann Sample, his prize was stolen from him, or at least hidden for a while. John Shorts had led the pretty Miss Sample through the portals of Magistrate Gavin’s matrimonial chambers, and the magistrate was preparing to administer the “Unto death do us part” ceremony, when suddenly the doors swung back and a woman rushed in and shouted, “There’s nothin’ doin’, judge.” The woman was Mrs. Louise Crabtree, mother of the wouldbe bride. “Come here to me,” said the woman to her daughter as she grasped her daughter’s arm. The daughter, whose tear-filled eyes showed the keeness of her disappointment, made a dash through the doorway of the chamber and was hotly pursued by young Shorts. The mother followed, but was soon outdistanced, and the couple was lost in the throng. The woman then made the rounds f all offices of justices and cautioned ’■hem not to perform the ceremony as tier daughter was too young

TO CALL WOMEN “MADAME” New Society Formed in Vienna Would Abolish Distinguishing Label of Married Portion of Sex.

th© register another name, that of Freddie Gebhard, the rich American, who heeded not the jibes of the newspapers, but persistently followed the professional beauty from one engagement to another and sought to win her. ~ it was only a few years later that the hotel burned with a frightful loss of life. Outwardly the original Southern hotel presented the same appearance as the present structure. But when it caught fire ,it burned like tinder. Phellm O’Toole and Mike Hester were the heroes of that fire. They rescued dozens of guests who were caught on upper floors. The new building was completed in 1880, and from the opening it was one of the most fashionable hotels in the West. The lesson learned from the burning of the old building and the large loss of life attending it resulted the new building being absolutely fireproof. It was subjected to the most drastic tests and withstood them all. WAISTS BARRED BY CARDINAL Women So Clad Cannot Attend Confirmation or Be Godparents in Vienna. Vienna.—Women dressed in clothing which reveals or slightly conceals the shoulders and arms, or who wear tight-fitting skirts, will be barred from confirmation either as spectators or as godparents to children, according to Patriarch Cardinal Cavallari, who preached a sermon recently which has set all the society women of this city into a flutter of excitement Taking as his text St Peter’s words on feminine ipparel, the cardinal attacked “Immodest, uncouth fashions,” saying in part: “The extravagance of women’s dress has reached such a point today that even men —I do not speak of Christians, but ordinary men of the street—feel disgusted. “How can respectable women ap- ; pear in public when thus arrayed? For my part I will not permit women so bedecked to attend confirmation, either as spectators or as godparents to children. I possess the right to eaclude any and every person who thus shows a want of respect for the holy sacrament.”

“Dead” Woman Sues Him

Separated More Than Eight Years, Couple Meet In Court—Spouse Remarried and Had Family. Philadelphia, Pa.—Separated from his first wife eight and one-half years, ago, James Kynoch of A street, Kensington, believed she was dead until he found himself facing her in the Central police court, where she charged him with nonsupport. Several years ago, it developed, Kynoch married a second time and is now living with his second wife and child. The peculiar situation was disclosed when Magistrate MacFarland asked the woman, “How long has it been since he gave anything for your support?” . “About ten years,” replied Mrs. Kynoch. “What!” exclaimed the magistrate, and thereupon the story was unfold' ed. Kynoch declared that his first wife left him about two weeks after their marriage, and although he searched diligently for her, all trace of her was lost. Believing her dead, he married another woman several ears later. Mrs. Kynoch’s experience seemed to have been similar to that ot her hus-

By thus placing all women on an equal footing, so far as title is concerned, the “League of Madame," as the unique organization styles itself, hopes to democratize womanhood generally and infuse Into the sex a new spirit of camaraderie. Also, with the abolition of the title “mademoiselle," or Its national equivalent. It is argued that the privileges generally accorded to married women should be extended to their single sisters, while men and women would meet on more equal terms.

CLIMBERS CAMP IN ROCKIES Enthusiasts From Everywhere JciS Alpine Club of Canada in/Annual Gathering Near Banff. Banff. Alta. —Mountain climbers from all parts of the Dominion, from Great Britain, continental Eprope and the United States have been gathering for several days at the seventh annual camp of the Alpine Club of Canada, which has been’ ijftc'bed this year in the forest on the* south side of PalUser’s Vermilion Pass, main range ot the Rooky Mountains, |bout eisht miles from Castle and twenty-five miles southwest from Banff. The camp site is at an altitude of 5.300 feet above sea level and amid highly picturesque surroundings. By its side is a rushing glacier torrent, the initial source of Vermilion river. The pass is hemmed in by snow-clad peaks. To the east rise Storm Mountain and Mount Ball; to the west Boom Lake Mountain and Mount Whymper. Prospectors’ Valley, in which flows Tokuum Creek, gives access to a traverse of a wide snow field to the southern faces of six of the ten peaks forming that part of the range. It is expected that a number of alpinists will avail themselves of the opportunity to graduate as full-fledged members of the club by ascending to the required height of at least 10.00 Q feet above sea level. Storm Mountain, the lowest and most accessible of the peaks.. is 10,309 feet and its conquest, will be accepted as a graduating test.

Wyo.—Standing for hours in cold water at the bottom of a deep cistern *Jnd racking brain and body to escape and save tbw life of her little two-year-old baby, for whose sake she had descended, was the experience of Mrs. A. W. Frazier, a rancher’s wife, residing on Buffalo creek. 30 miles from Sheridan. The story of the mother’s heroism and devotion came to light when mother and child were brought to Sheridan for medical treatment. While at home with her child, mile* from the nearest neighbor, the baby fell,into the cistern while at play. The mother followed instantly, dropping to the bottom of the well by a rope fastened to the top, and finally succeeded in rescuing the child and herself by climbing the rope and hauling the child up after her.

She said that she left her husband and went to Wilmington, where she worked for several years, after which she came to this city, where she learned that her husband was living and married to a second wife. Thereupon she procured a warrant for his arrest. Mrs. Kynoch refused to have her husband arrested for bigamy, and said that she did not want to send him to jail. All she asked, she declared, was his support. Magistrate MacFarland held him in SSOO ball for court.
