On Tuesday morning, Henry kroma,
Roy King and Vern Sparks, the three
young men charged with having as
saulted and robbed Andrew Lutz. will
be tried in the Wayne Circuit Court.
Despite the fact that the police depart
ment believe that there is evidence
against the trio sufficient TO pre- dict
conviction in advance of the opening
of the trial, the young men themselves
appear confident that they will be ac-
quilted and will make fight for lib
erty. They absolutely deny the rob-
berry. Supt. Bailey, of the police de-
partment. said yesterday that Prose.
cutor Jessup had such evidence in his
possession which made conviction ap-
pear certain, and coupled with the rec
ords of the trio, he said there shoul.
be no doubt of the result.

Secretary Of the Navy Says Great
Oceans to East and West are High
ways of Invasion With Present In
adequate Navy.
Publishers Press. ]

Washington, D. c., Dec. 6.-Secre-
tary Bonaparte of the Navy Depart
ment declares that the national safe
ty depends upon the construction of
more battleships.
In his annual report, made public
tonight he points out that with n
sufficient naval strength to retain
command of the sea, the United
States is absolutely safe from invas
ion and can escape the burdens of a
vast military establishment which
bear upon all the European govern
ments. But" he continues, ''if we
have not sufficient navy, the Oceans
to the east and west of us, instead
of serving as bulwarks for defense,
become highways for invasion" He
further points out that American
shores are within a weeks, or at least
fortnights march of a powerful ar
my from any one of the great mill
tary countries of the world. The
danger, he says is, rendered far
more serious by the fact than an en-
emy coming by water is restricted to
no line of advance ascertainable be-
forehand and may choose for aggres-
sion any part of our coast line which
seems the most vulnerable"

GOVERNOR TAYLOR
At THE GENNETT
Southern Orator Filled Second
Number of Popular Lee
ture Course.
HAD MANY GOOD STORIES
EASY MANNER OF HOLDING HIS
AUDIENCE AND PRETTY WORD
PICTURES WE'RE ESPECIALLY
NOTEWORTHY.

Relating as only true Southerner
which are used for forceful ilIustra-
tions. in the hands of eloquent South
ern orators, Governor Robert Taylor,
or perhaps known better to his many
friends and admires as plain Bob
Taylor, gave the second number of
the Popular Lecture Course at the
Gennett theatre last night.
Gov. Taylor is a typical southerner
and the easy but yet perfect manner
in which he spoke held the audience
as in a spell for more than one hour.
He has the happy faculty of inter
mingling the old Dixie folk lore, with
the more stable arguments which he
presents, in such manner as to keep
his audiences in nothing but a joyful
mood. AS story teller he is supreme
and his word pictures last night were
especially noteworthy.
Many of the audience which filled
the theatre from pit to dome, express
ed themselves. tkat the lecture was
by far the best ever offered by the
Popular Lecture Course in tFlj city.
One Of His Best Stories.
Governor Taylor related a little in
cident which occurred during the
time he was Governor of Tennessee
a few years ago. in which an old col
ored nanny figured very conspic-
uously, and was the means of freeing
her worthless husband from the pen
itentiary, Governor Taylor granting
the pardon.
The old lady came to Taylor's Of
flee one day and with tears coursing
down her wrinkled cheeks she hegg-
ed the Governor to free her husband.
The Governor was touched by her ap
pearance and asked what her hus-
band had been sent to the peniten-
tiary for, and the woman replied For
stealing a possum, and some chick
ems and some bacon your honor"
But" replied the kind hearted Gov
ernor. why are you so interested in
securing his release"
"Oh, honey. we am most out of
meat again
The Governor Immediately sat
down to his desk and granted the
convicted negro the pardon. for which
his wife had SO valiently pleaded.

WILL ASK FOR NEW LAWS

Talks.

Muncie hotelkeepers have signified
their Willingness to stand behind a lob
by proposed by the Indiana Hotel
keepers association to secure better
legislation for the innkeeper at the
coming meeting of the Indiana legisla-
ture.
In speaking of the proposed lobby
last night a Richmond hotel keeper
said: I'VE surely should have better
legislation. The way that it now is
a man can come into ones place and
give in package worth, possibly $500.
He gives it's valuation to the clerk as
S 800. and if the hotel is robbed dur
ing the night, the hotelkkeeper stands
the loss. We should have better laws
for regulating the sale OF the baggage
of an absconding guest.
s.The hotel lobby will be taken up at
the annual meeting of the Indiana Ho-
telkeepers' association, which begins
at Indianapolis Dec. IL. The innkeep-
ers are looking for law that will linn
it their liability to $500 or $500 and
will give them the right to dispose of
a board bill beater's baggage without

VOICED SOME OF THE VIEWS
HE WOULD HAVE BEEN

IPuhlishers. Press.l


Lincoln, Neb. Dec. 6.-rn comment
ing on the Presidents message, Viii
liam j. Bryan writes in part as fol-
lows in this weeks issue of the Com
moner:
The Presidents message contains
much for which the public may well
thank him. 1t contains some things
that ought to arouse severe criticism
The President boldly appropriates
some doctrines which the Democrats
have been advocating; he announces
some doctrines so absurd as to excite
amusement If the suggestions came
from less prominent source. In
some cases he takes advanced
ground; in some cases he retreats
from ground already taken,
He urges law which will make
il criminal offense for any corpor-
alton to. contribute TO any campaign
fund. In this suggestion he is right.
But the President does not stop there.
Individual Contributions.
AS 70 individual contributions he
yertiably recedes from the position
taken in a former message He says
Let individuals contribute as they
desire While it is eminently prop
er that corporations should be for
hidden to contribute. it is also impor-
tant that the contributions made by
individuals should be known
The President asks for law con-
ferring upon the government the
right of appeal in criminal cases
where disputed questions of law are
m In hi Dr.
right
The President says: "The govern
ment has begun a policy of resorting
to the criminal law in trust and in
terstate commerce cases where such
course offers reasonable chance
of success"
The Presidents position on the
child labor questio is good as also
on the eight hour day. although he
makes a very questionable explana-
tion as to the eight hour day when he
speaks of the work at Panama. Many
will argue that limitation upon the
hours of labor is as important within
the tropics as in the temperate zone.
But in speaking of the labor ques-
ton he feels called upon to warn the
gogues and foolish visionaries. pur-
veyors sensational slanderers, etc.
The principal merit that the Pres
ident possesses is that he is contrib
uting a little toward remedial legisla-
zion in spite of the fact that he has tn
work with the very men he denounc.
es.
The President recommends the
of the coai lands from en-
try and sale. This is a gigantic step
toward government ownership.
The Presidents discussion of the
trust question can hardly be satisfac-
tory to those who have carefully stud
led the subject. He is SO anxious
not to disturb what he would call
good combinations of capital that he
shrinks from the legislation necessary
to prevent those admitted to be bad
