The necessity of chaperonage has largely
interfered with the physical development
of the French girl. It is not to be expect
ed that mother or an aunt or other per-
son qualified to chaperon can take or de-
sire to take part in a game of golf with the
seme enthusiasm as a young player. Some
progress, however has been effected of
late. The keen interest taken in skating
this winter has done much to Temporarily

REPCELIC SPECIAL

Washington, .:uly B.-Secretary Charles
A. Edwards. Secretary OF the Democratic
Congressional Campaign Committee, is in
dignant about a dispatch sent out from
Indianapolis last Friday purporting to
give an expression of his views on the ac-
ton of the Democratic party in turning
from free silver.
The dispatch in question stated that
Representative Cowherd Of Missouri,
chairman of the COMMITTEES, and Secretary
Edwards both were grievously disap-
pointed over the action of the nominee for
President In injecting the gold standard
in the platform .-sr.> a...
Ii wentoa to say that Mr.. Cowherd had
refrained from publicly expressing his
views, but Secretary Edwards declared
emphatically the night the party turned
from free silver to the gold standard that
it would be impossible for the Democrats
to Win the House of Representatives on
such platform. The dispatch made ref
erence to Secretary Edwards, saying that
the latter was ready to predict that sew
eral Democratic nominees in close con-
sressional districts would decline to run
on the Parker gold-standard platform.
Those statements. said Secretary Ed
wards to-day. have absolutely no foun-
dation. cannot imagine how any news
paper man would nave the audaclty 10
send out from Indianapolis 4 dispatch
purporting to state my views.
II haven't stopped in Indianapolis since
I can remember. and yet l find myself
quoted in the pa pers as saying the Demo-
Gratis have no chance to win the House. l
have never made any such statement. 1t
would be absurd for me TO do so.
'In the name of Mr.. Cowherd and my
self. want to say that the dispatch from
Indianapolis is the result of some fertile
imagination: that 1t has not a particle Of
truth in 1t. 1t does Mr.. Cowherd and my
self a gross Injustice

light affair by any manner Of means-the
opposition has sought him out. To man
they have an abiding respect for his fight

move without consulting him To a man
they defer to | Is good Judgment.
Only short wNile ago this determined
gentleman was an Office boy in the con-
