Swanson for Daniel.

There is not one word OF truth in the
story printed that I am after Senator

cannot make the statement too en-
phatic to suit me-" said Hon. Claude
Swanson, candidate Tor governor of
Virginia, while here on personal busi-

IF the Congressional elections were to

country" said Representative Harry
Lee Maynard. of Virginia, at the New
Willard this morning. Mr.. Maynard is
on his way to Chicago to meet q party
of Congressman. with whom he will
make a brief trip to Arizona.
MY belief in a sweeping Democratic
victory is based largely on the uncover
ing Of the political corruption brought
out in New York by the insurance In

indorse such wholesale .debauchery of
the electorate. The disclosure made

The Remedy.

The Independent, in an editorial
headed ''The Quest of Diogenes," has
some very pertinent remarks on the
present agitation Tor reform in this
country. The ultimate blame for all
the rottenness in the financial struc-
ture comes back, in the last analysis,
upon the people; but courage and
openness of dealing are as essential
as honesty, 1t thinks. The cure for
present conditions is to be found in
publicity
The editorial cuts deeper than this,
however; it suggests that our past
and present acquiescence in, and
abuse Of, secrecy in politics and bus
mess is an outward expression of the
cowardice and timidity Of our souls.
We lack intellectual and moral cour-
age. We are jelly-fish. AS the ar
ticle referred to says: IF Americans
had the courage to speak their hon
est thoughts more fearlessly, we
could count on larger proportion
of good and a smaller proportion of
evil''

Meals in the Kitchen.

In ten years." says a well-known
physician, only those women will
endure servants in their houses who
are afflicted by necessity"
What will the others do?p some
one asked
They will do as their grandmoth-
ers," was the reply. "They will
serve their meals in the kitchen and
live simply-and they will be the
healthier and the happier for it"
Support for this forecast is offered
by the magazines on home building.
The more progressive they are the
simpler are the houses they exploit.
Parlors are omitted altogether; the
great, wasteful mistaken hall is Civ
ing way TO one just large enough for
its normal uses; walls are being kept
bare in occasional spots, and the
whole downstairs is being so con-
tracted that the preparing and serv-
ing Of meals need consume only the
least possible time.
Why do we 1--we as we do, anyway?
In the old days meat. vegetables, and
dessert made dinner Now we need
soup. fish, meat, salad. game, pud-
ding, ices, coffee. and cheese. There
is no use quarreling with the appe-
tite. If we want that variety, edi-
torials in the newspapers will not
argue It away. But we need not use
up whole pantry to serve it-two
plates for the soup; two for the fish
