QUEEN.
BY EDWIN A. NYE.
Copyright. 1908. by Edwin A. Nxe.

A recent cable dispatch tells about
the wardrobe of Queen Marguerite,
said to be the greatest In Europe
This queen does not wear a gown
more than five times, no matter what
it costs. She has famous jewels.
And her handkerchiefs!
She has one which is the finest prod
net of the lacemakers, valued at 49,
600. It is so dainty the weight of 1t
in the hand is imperceptible. 1t can
be folded up in gold case as small as
a dolls thimble.
All of which reminds us.
We knew a Queen Marguerite once.
We called her Maggie" for short.
This queen had eyes like a fawn's,
glorious hair, a mouth kissable beyond
all peradventure, a complexion like the
rosy tints of early morn. She was
graceful, as becomes a queen, and
could climb stake and ridered" rail
fence In a way that would stagger all
the royalty of Europe
Queen Maggie wore her dresses
more than five times Indeed, she did
not have more than five dresses all
told, If she had that many We re-
member three Of them. There was
the linsey woolsey. In that gown she
MIXED the cows, got breakfast for the
"hands" and did chores about the
house She had at least two others,
both calico.
Those calico dresses
She wore one to school. The other
was worn to church. You might ponder
long as to which was most becoming.
Her handkerchiefsl
None of them cost $1,000, perhaps
none of them so much as 80 cents
dainty white linen mostly, a bandan-
ma or two And when she put the
white kerchief about her neck she alb
solutely turned the head of every sus-
ceptible boy in the schoolroom.
Sometimes her hands were red.
She wore heavy calfskin shoes.
But she was a queen, every inch of
her,
And she is queen today-an Ameri-
can queen. She still yields her scepter
over her subjects. And she will not
abdicate her throne-never! Queen to
Will, queen to her bunch of boys,
every one worth ten italian princes!
A few silly women who would sell
their birthright for a mess Of pot
tage may rave about Queen Margue-
rites gowns and laces, but Queen Mag
gle will not
She Is a queen by divine right.
She is Queen of Hearts!

west a battle ground. Kern would not
have had a look-in had he not been
thought able to do some good in his
home state This pleased the demo-
Gratis as they knew that Bryan or no.
one else would expect a man to swing
his state into without financial and
other kinds Of help. Consequently the
democrats expect plenty Of money.
plenty OF strong speakers, plenty of
the other sinews of war and plenty
of everything that is passed out.
We realize that the democrats will
get enough of the stuff to inject a lot
.of ginger into their campaign so we
are going to meet them more than half
way. We will spend eve dollars where
they will have one to spend. We will
have more and ADLER speakers, more
literature and more novelties of the
kind that every campaign produces.
We are going to carry Indiana by big
plurality but we are not going to sit
idly by and let overconddence rob US
of any votes"

a big rally Of the Kern notification

Mr.. Kern IS now resting at his home

not a ghost Of show for the job They
insist that 1t would be poor politics TO
have vice presidential candidate and
a national chairman from the same
state, especially from Indiana. which
furnished Tom Taggart four years ago.
Mr.. Kern is being besieged by
friends and organizations to make
speeches but he IS refusing 10 bind
himself by positive engagements He

starts He will be given non

town, tomorrow night.

EXPECT To BURN
LOTS OF RED FIRE
Both Republicans and Democrats Intend to Make
Things Hum All Over Indiana This
Year Says the Leaders.

| Indianapolis July 20-F'rom an au-
lucrative source it was learned yester-
day that the republicans will conduct
one of the most vigorous campaigns
this year ever known in the state. 1t
will be spirited from start to finish
The republicans are not apprehensive
regarding conditions but they realize
that persistent and continuous work
Of a hard kind will be necessary to
keep things in shape.
You may say, if you will not use my
name" said one party manager. that
Indiana has not for years seen such
/ q campaign as we are about to con-
duct. We will hold more big meetings
than ever before there will be more
and better speakers at our command.
more special trains viii be run, more
bands will be engaged and more litera
ture will be disseminated.
SAYS APATHY DOES NOT EXIST.
Apathy does not exist to any de-
gree but the party needs some stirring
up. We have had things our own way
for so long that many voters are be
coming careless. This must cease and
1t will cease after we got started.
There will be no let-up. We will have
meetings after meetings: special clubs
will be organized everywhere; quartets
and bands will travel from one end Of
the state to the other and we will burn
more red fire than has been burnt in
any two former campaigns"
but how about the money for all
this?" was asked. 1T takes money to
conduct that kind of a campaign"
Don't worry about that" was the
answer. were not" The money will
be forthcoming. We have no intention
of being extravagant or of spending
money unlawf but there will be all
the funds we will need for Legitimate
purposes such as building up the or
ganization and creating enthusiasm in
communities where enthusiasm is
needed"
GETTING IN GOOD LICKs.
Though the campaign has not yet
started in earnest and will not for a
month or six weeks, the state committee
is getting in many hard ticks. The
song book is already out. 1t is larger
and more elaborate than ever before
Thousands Of Autographs Of Taft and
Sherman and Of Watson have also been
sent broadcast. Orders have been
placed for tens of thousands Of but
tons and souveni postcards. These
will be sent in punches to every coun-
ty chairman. Badges, souvenirs, lit
erature and songs viii be distributed
in unprecedented amounts.
The republican quoted above insisted
that the democrats were not counting
on Kern as vote getter nor were
they banking on state pride to help
their ticket But they are counting"
he continued, on the national committee
sending a barrel to Indiana. This is
what makes them jubilant. When Bry-
an notified the Denver convention that
he would like to see Kern nominated.
