HEARST MOVES
HIS DATE AHEAD
Republican States Committee Meets
Tonight at Claypool To Receive
Reports From the Various Districts
in Indiana as to Progress Made.
Especial to THE TINES

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. Tn Sc
Kern notification. the democratic man
ayers clashed with the followers of
William Randolph Hearst in Indiana,
as that was the date designated by the
independence party for its state con-
vention to nominate a full state ticket
from governor down. It has been an
nounced that Mr.. Hearst himself would
be here to conduct the convention and
that Thomas s. Hisgen, nominee for
the presidency would also be here. But
Notwithstanding these announcements
the democrats chose the same date for
their big show.
Won't Buck Bryan.
At first the Hearstites thought they
would hold their state convention as
a counter attraction and then they
changed their minds and moved their
date up a couple of days. They decid-
ed, 1t seems, that it would be useless
for them to buck William Jennings
Bryan, who is to be here as the big at
traction of the Kern notification.
Speaks at Fair Grounds
Mr.. Bryan will speak on the trusts
at the Kern meeting which will be held
in the Colosseum of the state fair
ground. Arrangements are now being
made to make the notification meeting
an all-state, all-day affair as it will
probably be the only one in Indiana
this campaign to be addressed by the
Commoner. He may make a speech
| later at Terre Haute, but this is not
at all sure.
Republicans Meet Tonight.
The republican state committee is to
meet tonight at the Claypool hotel to
| discuss plans for the campaign and to
receive reports from the various dis
| tricts. Reports received daily at the
state headquarters continue to be en-
| couraging. Every county continues to
report that county local option is loom
| ing up the big issue of the cam
paign and that voters. regardless of
party, are joining with the republicans

Heart to Heart
| Talks.
HE DIED POOR.
By EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright, 1903. by Edwin A. Nye.

We want to hear less of the man who
began poor and amassed wealth and more
Of the man who lived unsullied and died
poor-A Modern Writer.
The words are fifty spoken.
Therefore this brief sketch of a man
who lived upright and died poor.
He was just an average man of clean
life, fair abilities, industrious and hon
est. He worked hard, was economical
and seldom complained. He did not
want to get rich quick. He only ask
ed a living, worthily earned, a roof
tree and a bit of garden, bread and
butter for wife and babies, an occa-
sional holiday and few luxuries.
This man was not close listed. He
had generous impulses. Out of his
modest earnings he gave to his church
and to help his fellows. He wore a
smiling face. He was good neigh
bor He paid his debts. He loved his
wife and children. He spent his even
ings at home. He envied no man.
In all his life this man never earned
more than $1,000 in a single year. But
he saved enough to buy little home.
He kept his boy and girl In the high
school until they were graduated. And.
besides, there were few dollars In the
bank for rainy day.
This man laughed often and loved
much. His joys and sorrows were the
joys and sorrows Of the common lot.
Men said of him. living, Hes all
right" When he died they said, "He
was a fine man and a good citizen"
That's all
Excepting this: The life of this man.
whose short and simple annals we
have told. Is typical life. 1t Is the
life Of the average good citizen.
And it Is easy 10 see why we do not
hear very much about him.
The newspapers and magazines are
full of success stories concerning
rich men because these men are the
! exception and not the rule. There Is
no story material In the career of the
common man who lives a decent life
and dies poor.
Nevertheless
Such men are the salt of the earthl
That kind of success which has beer
made by the use of ignoble means Is
nothing more than successful failure
You could have no better epitapt
upon your tombstone than this:

Los Angeles, Aug. 6.-Judge Alton B.
Parker, democratic candidate for presi-

of the present campaign in behalf Of
Bryan and Kern before an audience of
two thousand people at Temple Audi
forum last night
In his address Judge Parker said:
we have at the head of the democratic
ticket two men of character well
known, one of whom is especially well
known, and who, in season and out
has fought against the relations be-
tween government and corporations
And with him is associated a man
whom I have known personally since
1895 and who, in my judgment, is in
every way worthy of his associate, and
who in case an emergency of any kind
should arise, which God forbid, would
be in position to take up the standard
and carry it on.
