~ ~AA0NbAAA s5pISA0J
Indianapolis, Ind. Dec. 8.-The stu
alton with reference to the chairman
ship of the republican state committee
has become more complicated since
yesterday, when Harry S. New, Of this
city, made the statement that he is not
q candidate for chairman of the state
committee; that he will not be a can
didate; that he will not take the place
II he is elected to it. For several
months past it has been the under
standing that New would be the only
candidate whose name would be pre-
scented for the place, and that he would
accept. It was known, too,. that he
could have the place il he would take
1t, and that the only thing that would
keep him from being elected would be
his own refusal to run. This has
been pointed out in these dispatches
several times.
What Harry States.
Mr.. New has just returned from a
hunting trip in Michigan, where he
goes three or four times a year. AS
soon as he struck town yesterday he
was asked whether he would run for
state chairman, and he said he would
not But there are friends of his
who insist that he will be elected any
way, thus putting it up to him to
serve. Mr.. New is said to feel that he
has earned rest from political labors.
He has been identified with the party
In one way or another for thirty
years, and has held many positions of
responsibility in the organization. He

has served in almost every capacity,
even up to chairman of the national
committee, which position he occupied
last year. But he is said now to hold
that he has had enough, and that he
wishes to have someone else assume

declaration that he will not take the

Is Preparing Notices.
Fred Sims. secretary of state, and
acting chairman of the republican state
committee, says he will send out no.
tees some day this week for a meet
ing of the state committee in this city
during the holiday week He says 1t
will also be decided this week whether
there will be a love feast, but he is
now of the opinion that a love feast
will be held. Whether the meeting of
the state committee will be held on the
same date as the love feast is ques-
ton. however 1t may be held on the
same day or on the previous night. At
that meeting the date will be set for
the election of new members OF the
state committee and for the reorgani-
zation Of the committees and the cleo
ton of chairman.
James P. Goodrich, state chairman,
has been in the city several times re-
Gently, and has held conferences with
Sims on the subject Of reorganization.
and it is said they have agreed on the
general plan. Sims says, however.
that it will be left to Goodrich, as
chairman of the state committee, to
decide whether a love feast will be
held, but it is believed now that there
will be one.
Beverage Coming Back.
Senator Beverage is expected back
from Washington in very few days
and when he comes he will remain un.
til after the holidays. Therefore. he
will be here when the state committee
meets and also at the love feast. If one
Is held There is not believed to be
much danger of a serious contest for
district chairman IN any OF the dis
tricts, the purpose Of the leaders be
ing to avoid anything of this kind. As
the matter stands now. the new com
mittee will be a Beveridge committee
that is, it will be committee that
will be satisfactory to the senator, and
everybody comedies his right to have
it made SO. Therefore. there is no!
much chance for trouble in electing dis
trict chairmen.
Everybody around here is up in tbs
air over the local option case in the
supreme court, and on every hand
there is heard the hope that the decis
ion will be handed down soon SO the
people will know whether the law is
constitutional or unconstitutional.

IT WAS NOT HER BACK.
Woman Had No Idea of Being Proxy
for Medical Treatment.

A missionary, discoursing upon
India, told of woman who had come
to her complaining of a very sore
back and desired that she pray for its
cure. This Mrs Jackson did, but the
woman again appeared before her and
declared that the back was still in
bad condition. Mrs. Jackson advised
the use of an application of iodine,
and brought out bottle of the drug
to apply upon the afflicted part of the
woman's anatomy. But she regarded
the bottle suspiciously and acted as
though it would hurt her were she to
use it. To allay her fears upon this
score Mrs. Jackson applied some of
the drug to her own finger and showed
her that it would not burn, and that
she had better allow her to put some
of It upon her back.
But" said the woman, ut would
do no good"
"How SOP" inquired Mrs. Jackson,

VALUE OF THE HUMBLE HEN.
Figures Mike One Think Biddy Has
Not Bee, Properly Appreciated.

The hens admirers grow. Constant
Is their Increase. The first official act
OF Nebraskas new labor commissioners
was formal appreciation of this
pillar of so.iety. According to Mr..
Maupin, this fowl brought $1S,000,000
worth of eggs to market in Nebraska
last year. The commissioner is unpre-
pared to estimate the value of her Off
spring in the way of fried chicken.
She laid 1,O0,000,000 eggs in 1908.
Placed end 70 end these eggs would
reach around the earth and overlap
$4,000 miles. They would make an
egg walk three feet wide reaching
from Omaha to Ogden. With ham
they would furnish breakfast for 600,-
100000 people, and make an omelet
containing $4,000 cubic feet. The hen
was worth more to Nebraska than the
boasted wheat crop of $26,000.000; al
most twice as much as the oat crop OF
$16,000,000; 20 times as much as the
barley crop; 20 times as much as the
rye crop, and One-third as much as the
much-talked-of crop of corn. The COM
missioner believes Nebraska needs
another seal. Is hesnot right in think
ing that upon that seal no figure so
well demands recognition as the ever
patient, busy and unpretentious hen.

THE CRACKING OF PAINT.
Property Owners Can Save Money
by Learning the Cause.

Do you know what is wrong when
paint peels, or cracks, or otherwise
necessitates premature re-painting?
Well, sometimes it hasn't been
properly applied-the surface being
damp or there being too much turpen-
tine or too much drier.
But, nine times out of ten, the
trouble is caused by adulterated
white lead.
To avoid all such trouble, every
houseowner should know in a general
way, when a surface is in proper con-
dition to receive paint, what kind of
primer and finishing coats different
surfaces require, and how to avoid
adulteration in materials.
A complete painting guide, includ-
ing a book of color schemes, specif-
cations for all kinds of painting work,
and an instrument for detecting adul-
terations in painting materials, with
directions for using it, can be had
free by writing National Lead Com
pany, 1902 Trinity Bldg, New York,
and asking for Houseowner's Paint
ing Outfit No. 40.
This company, the largest makers
of pure white lead, invite tests, by
means of the blowpipe Gncluded in
OUTFIT, or in any other way, of the
purity of the white lead sold under
their famous Dutch Boy Painter"
trademark. That trademark on keg
Of white lead is in itself an absolute
guarantee of purity and quality.
