you're way off," said the inquisitive
man. The average hat of the sugar scoop
variety comes nearer two feet. That's
big estimate, I know, but there's one
across the aisle Of the average size. When
the lady walks thru the doorway, We'll
make an ocular estimate Of the space left
on each side Of the rim Of her hat, and
afterward measure the width of the door,"
They did when the opportunity afforded,
and ccndding in a. third passenger by way
Of approxinating more closely, the final
conclusion reached was that there was
barely one and half inches Of space be-
tween her hat and door jamb on one side,
and two on the other. They called it six
to be liberal, and when the train started,
they measured the doorsill. 1t was twenty
five inches wide. SO the hat was approx
mately nineteen inches in diameter.

rated at once, and, when we take into
consideration the character of the men
at the head of the movement and the
ambition of the nan who aspires to be
thu leader, we may well believe there
wi be no let-up until the meeting of
h next democratic convention. The
opening of the campaign for 1908 is
thus described in a dispatch of recent
date ser out from Indianapolis:
An important conference OF western
members of the democratic n~ational
committee. including Roger Sullivan, of
Illinois; Thomas E. Ryan. of Wiscon-
sin; r. A. Billups, of Oklahoma; w. A.
Rothwell, of Missouri; Senator Dubois,
of Idaho, n others, was held with
National Chairman Taggart at French
Springs this week. Mr.. bryan, il is
said, vas asked to be present, but ow-
ing to other engagements could not
come to Indiana. Ryan, ROthwell and
Dubois, however, were commissioned to
speak for him, and they made no Sc
cret of the fact that the leadership of
h Nebraskan would have to be restor-
ed before the party entered upon an
other campaign.
1t is said that the western members
of the conference were anxious for Mr..
Taggart to define his views in view of
the crushing defeat of the party, and he
was K to make a public statement
To the effect that the recent campaign
failed of it's object largely because of
the departure at st. Louis from the
paigns. Mr.. Taggart, it is said, ex-
pressed the belief that this was true.
but did not think it incumbent upon
him at this time to go into the causes
that led to the republican landslide.
He admitted hat Bryan has a stronger
hold pon the party than any other
man and did not dissent from the gen.
eral view that his leadership should be
restored if the democrats hoped to win
in the state election two yea hence.

Roosevelt but for the gold platform that
Parker made for himself after his nomi-

that this declaration by the candidate
had lone more than anything else to
bring abo the Decentralization OF the

Indiana would ave been a closer state
with Bryan or some free

said as little as possible on the sub
ject, and did not wish TO commit him
