Il ate dinner yesterday at a place
where the food is excellent and admir-
ably cooked, and where everything
they give you is good and appetizing,
and ample in supply, but where the
JOY OF the meal was marred by cold
plates.
Just why they give you cold plates
at this place / don't know, but it Is
simply the survival of an ancient Gus

For hot plates are a modern Gus
tom. Formerly people got along very
well without them but it Is different
now. when it is so easy to provide
them And yet they are by no means,
even today, everywhere to be found
You might eat today at the abund-
ant, the well-supplied and the we'll

member was the personification of
kindly grace and hospitality, and yet
find here your food served to you on
cold plates; rugged people. these. by
whom, out OF some feeling bred in the
days when luxuries were less common,
hot plates would still be considered as
a mark Of concession to effeminacy.
And by such reason. indeed, might
the cold plates be accounted for In

though In many another hotel their
presence is due simply to slackness

the biggest prairie fires in recent years
in Montana is sweeping the ranges in
the Eastern part of the state, not less

Republican Leaders Have
Broken Faith With the
Governor.
WHERE DO WE CONE IN
Many of Chief Executives Hench-
men Dissatisfied and Former
May Have to Get Busy.
Especial to Lake County Timesl

Indianapolis, Feb. 14-There is no
question in the minds of those advised
as to the political situation that the
crisis has come In the present Lepis-
lature. The action Of the Republican n
members of the Senate in emascuIat-
ing the Babcock- -Farber insurance bin
serves to show that unless conditions
change the Legislature is not going m
do some things that was expected Of
It, The next few days viii show
whether or not the present attitude
will continue. or whether there will
be change in the attitude of the Re-
publicans.
The story is current here that the
Republican leaders have broken with
the Governor and are not trying To
force through effective measures +bzt
the platform declared for. Those who
circulate the story point to the dis
astrous defeat of the Governors pro-
gram at the State caucus on the insur-
ance measure. They point out that
many of the Senator'S who failed to
support the Governor could have been
brought into line by the Republican
leaders had they wanted to- Anyhow
they We're not brought into line. and
things are doing.
Leaders Discuss Situation.
Last night. around the ClaypooI and
Denison lobbies. the leaders were
gathered to discuss the situation.
Several of the Republican committee
men were present, including James
Goodrich, State chairman; Joe Barr,
of the second district. John Moorman
Of the twelfth district With them
were the State officers, many of whom
are wondering where they come in.
If the situation is as protrayed, there

The Senate conference certainly did
do things to the Farber bill. AS the
measure stands now. it is practically
what all of the Indiana companies
have been contending for, and IS prac-

tative of the Indiana companies.
