God Bless Us Every One!

GOD bless US every one!" prayed Tiny
Tim,
Crippled and dwarfed of body, yet so
tall
Of soul we tiptoe earth to look on him,
High towering over all.
He loved the loveless world nor dreamed,
indeed,
That it at best could give to him the
while
But plying glances when his only need
Was but a CHEEKY smile.
And thus he prayed, God bless us every
one!
Unfolding all the creeds within the span
OF his child heart and so, despising none
Was nearer saint than man.

Trick Voters and Get Beveridge---
That's Indiana's Old Guard Plot

Ito elect a republican legislature.
Here are a few of them:
1. Secretaly to pledge 40 repub-
lican candidates for the legisla-
ture to vote against Beveridge on
the ground that he is not repub-
lican but is opposed to what Taft
has termed party regularity"
2. BY the use of money to dead
lock the legislature.
8. Inject the liquor issue into
the situation and secure a dead
lock, Collect nucleus of legisla-
tive "wets" to stand for Book
walter as a candidate, and another
nucleus of "drys". to stand for j.
Frank Hanly as a candidate.
A. Trot out our old friend Chas.
Warren Fairbanks, refurbished
and rejuvenated by his trip around
the world, as the great and only
harmonizer," to take the place of
Beveridge.
5. Rig up lot of charges and
seeming evidence to show that
Beveridge is a depraved person.
Silly? They may sound SO; but
it is a solemn fact that all these
plans have received serious con-
sideration at the hands of the enc
mics of Beveridge.
And his enemies are numerous.
Practically all the "old guard" in
Indiana are against him. Jim Wat
son, Fairbanks, Hemenway, and
the friends of these, in the state
and in Washington, are burning
midnight oil to think of ways to
do" Beveridge. They hat insur-
gency, and they hate Beveridge
with a personal, bitter hatred. At
the present time they are dissem-
bling as best they can. They are
shrewd enough to know that the
one chance to avert an over
Iwhelming democratic landslide-a
landslide which would result in a
new apportionment of the state,
and turn over the offices and
Ispoils for years to come-is to let
the fight be made under the ban
ner of insurgency. Then as camp
followers they might hope to get
near enough to grab portion of
the spoils.
John w. Kern has been Endorsed
by the democratic state convention
and will be the democratic choice
in case the legislature should be
democratic.
Roosevelt will make speech for
Beveridge early in October. He
will be followed by LaFollette.
Cummins, Dolliver and Bristow.

Scheme Secretaly to Use Insur-
gent Leader as a Vote Getter,
Then Betray Him and Whole
State.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Sept. 1
Indiana is an insurgent state. II
is all for Senator Beveridge.
If 1t were not insurgent, II
would be democratic. 1t prefers
insurgency as the stronger brand
of protest.
The object Of Indiana's protest
Is the System.
The voters of the state are
against the Aldrich tariff; the
Cannon rules; Ballinger; the
Wickersham railroad bill; tariffs
for the rubber trust, and the high
er cost of living. They are for
insurgency because insurgency is
against these things.
Incidentally Indiana is against
Taft, because Taft was not against
these things.
Indiana has a democratic gov
ernor, one Marshall, who was
elected by 10000 majority at the
time Taft got his 1871. Two
thirds of the mayors of Indiana
are democrats, as we'll as large
proportion of the county and Judi
cial officers. The last legislature
in Indiana was democratic by Ia
votes. In consequence it retired
the republican stand-pat senator,
Jas. A. Hemenway, and sent In his
place a democrat, Benz. F. Shively.
The same election sent IL out of
10 democratic congressman to
Washington.
Total result: Reputation of the
Fairbanks-Hemenway-Watson ma
chine; the state practically a DEM
ocratic state.
But Indiana's democracy was
only premonitory symptom OF
its insurgency. Two years ago
there was no visible insurgent
movement and the only way the
state could express its insurgent
feelings was to vote the democratic
ticket; which 1t did.
Now it has two ways to make its
protests felt. Beveridge is the In
surgent candidate for the senate,
and there are republican and DEM
ocratic state tickets to be voted on.
Beveridge will win the popular
vote, hands down.
Beveridge will win a republican
majority In the Indiana legisla-
ture.
Will a republican legislature
elected by the ipsurgent element
of the state, carry out the conven-
tion pledge to return Beveridgef
I think 1t will, but I have been
told II different ways by which It
Is proposed to defeat Reveridge

THE AIR is HAY IN INDIAN
SIMMER

You have noticed in "Indian
summer" which usually comes in
the United States-as we'll as in
Germany and England-in Octo-
Der and November, hazy atmos-
phere which seems dense at the
horizon.
There is a popular belief that
smoke from forest fires causes
this hazy atmosphere, but this is
true only partially, and not neces-
sarily. The dead leaves fall from
the trees, are blown about, and
ground into a fine powder, and
this powder causes the hazy APP
pearance of the air. The smoke
helps some, of course.
