None That I Love
More Than Myself.

Appropriately enough, these badges
were OF yellow color. The sentiment
Is an expression of raw selfshness. Il
Is worse selflshness than that Of the
legendary old party who prayed:

Marriage is more than natures plan

affords wider growth, wider expert
ences. wider happiness.
The obstinate bachelor says:
Look at the divorce courts. Mar
rage is failure" Or Marriage is a
lottery. l cannot afford to take the
risk"
Marriage is not failure. and he who
says so might as well point to the hos
pitfalls and declare human life a failure
as to point to the divorce courts for
proof of his assertion.
To be sure, the bachelor may have
real excuses
Possibly the right party has not yet

he too is taken care Of by the
beneficent spoils system.
1t is greatly to the credit of the re-
publican party throughout the states
and the nation that it has undeniably
stood for civil service examinations as
qualification for fitness and for non
partisan administrations of public
works
The civil service examination has
given us two results-good public ser
wants; and the means by which the
man who has not a pull may obtain
the work he is fit for.
The non-partisan administrations
have given the country administra-
tons which are for the most part en-
tirely freed from the suspicion of
graft corruption.
VIII Mr.. Marshall please stand out
and say why it is that he believes in
the spoils system?
Or is 1t for the benefit of the Brew
cry Trust?
The question for the people of In
diana to answer is: do you want
able public servants Of non-partisan
character who will serve the people,
or do you want public servants who
are judged solely on how much money
election and who are answerable to
Tom Taggart and not to the people of
the state?'
What is the record Of the democra-
| tic party under this splendid spoils
system?
Does any one happen to remember
the affairs Of the Central Hospital for
the Insane. when that institution was
under the democratic ward healers?
