The Psychology of Fashion.
New York Tribune

From Inc New forA lr.oune.
Paris has just mobbed hookskirt or.
rather the wearer Of one, sent out, no
doubt. by some couturier in an attempt
to revive once more vanished fashion
Last year the city Of light mobbed its
opposite, the jupe-culotte, with even
more enthusiasm. Not because Paris
OBJ iects to new fashions even extreme
ones on principle. Not in the least IL
merely loves to mob somebody or some
thing. good naturedly or the reverse. and
welcomes any excuse TO indulge IN Its
faNorte pastime.
What is the secret of the changes OF
fashion? Is il merely a trick 10 keep
certain branches of business proftably
aoing-in this particular instance an at
tempt to recoup the losses on unso.d
materials caused by the narrowness OF
last seasons skirts? Or must we LOOK
for deeper cause beneath these con
slant mutations. this incessant search
for something new? Certain il is that
woman appears never to be satisfied for
long with her own appearance. This M
stinct, if such il can be called, probab
found its first outlet thousands OF years
ago. when she still dressed in skins, in
the invention of new ways OF doing
her hair. IL may even be that head
hunting. scalping and other pleasant d.
versions with an enemy originated IN
this her first fashion. her primitive need
of more hair wherewith to do her own.
She has always sought TO change her
physical appearance. by adding TO II.

living memory she has worn crinohnes,
dress improvers. balayeuses. the better
TO sweep up the dust OF the street with
her trailing skirts. She has seemingly
adopted for good the rainy day outdoor
garment. but now. IL appears. she IL TO
be tempted to return to the crinoline.
which, i'm one form or another, has been
a fayorite fashion Of hers since the
farthingale of the sixteenth century. Why

BALTIMORE. Nd, October .. 1917
One month from today the voters viii
decide whether the deStinieS of the state
for the next four years shall remain in
the hands of the democrats or the reins
of government turned over to the repub-
licans
The republicans. thus far, have had all
the best of the campaign. the grand jury
in this city furnishing splendid supply
of material against the democrats. The
eXtravagances Of the last democratic
legislature and the failure Of Gov. Croth-
erS to take any action against SUPERVISORS
of election who fiagrantly violated the
law in the Wilson law counties have been
dwelt upon by Mr.. Goldsborough the re-
publican candidate for governor, and his
running mates, Messrs. Soper and Gun
ningham
In this city tho better class of demo-
Gratis have become thoroughly aroused
over the fraud revelations Of the past
few weeks and conservative party men
will admit, when pressed that the demo
Gratis have d mighty slim chance of car
rying Baltimore city this fall. The party
organization-the Mahon machine-has
gone to pieces the ward leaders are not
at all active for the city or state ticket

RICHMOND. Va. October An idea
Virginia can ne gathered al this time
when the expense accounts of the aspir-
ants for the United States Senate are
being filed. The total expended by
Messrs. Martin and Swanson and Jones
and Glass will exceed $4,000, and Seantor
Swanson led the list with an outlay of
about $1,000
There were primaries in a majority of
the counties and cities of the common
wealth, i'm addition to the senatorial pri-
mary. and there is no question that in
each of these the expenses for all the
places averaged at least $1,000 to a
county, that the primary in Virginia
just a month ago today cost more than
S10O.o00 This money the candidates had
to put up for the honor of representing
the people. Representative Glass man
aged to emerge from the fray with the
smallest account of any of the candidates,
being bit under $4,000. Senator Swan
son had great faith in the effects OF
newspaper advertising, spending several
thousands of dollars in that direction.
Messrs Jones and Glass were the candi-
dates of the Virginia Democratic League.
and Mr.. Glass put some S5.tp IN that or
ganization, which maintained neaoauar-
tiers and scattered literature over the
face of the state.
Senator Swanson and Senator Martin
had only two weeks i'm which to make
their campaign. following the adjourn
ment of Congress. and they made things
fly while they were at it. When they deliv-
cred their opening speeches they bought
COPIES of the papers and sent them 10
every voter, besides having the same
speeches printed in pamphlet form The
bulk of their expenses can very easily
be traced to newspaper advertising. The
fact that the campaign cost so much. and
the further fact that only men of means
can enter political contests, is making
the primary decidedly unpopular among
the voters of the state.

Tobacco Is Booming.

Due to the short tobacco crop this year,
the prices for the weed" have already
begun to soar. The sales of what are
known primings have been good. and
instead of dropping just as the crop be-
gins to come in. these primings have
touched top prices and are still advanc-
ing. The primingS are being held al
prices which have for years been OBJ
tanned for the grade known as Tugs, "
and there is no telling just how high
the staple will go this season, and deal
ers are beginning to load up as fast as
the farmers bring their tobacco to the
city.
The Virginia crop is at least one-thrd
short this year. due to the long dry sea
son of the summer.

Big Row Over Small Job.

If there has been the bitterness in any
state over the selection of minor official
to any position that has followed the
action of the penitentiary directors in
naming a surgeon for the state peniten-
tiary no one can recall the fact. There
were two candidates, DIR. Charles Z. car
rington and Dr. Herbert Mann. There
are five directors of the prison, vested
with full and complete authority over the
institution. Three of the members were
named by Gov. Mann. One of these three
voted for DR.. Darlington, all the Others
for DIR. Mann, VINO happens to be a
nephew of the governor Both gentlemen
were identified with the machine element
in politics, and the alleged bosses were
all for DIR. Darlington. Yet DIR. Caring
ton was defeated.
DIR. Darlington has resorted to the
newspapers to vindicate himself and has
demanded that an investigation be held
The governor has Announced that he viii
direct one at the hands Of the general
assembly, that having been requested by
the board. DIR. Darlington says that some
of the members of the board had prom
ised to vote for him, and that they have.
to use polite term, SHE'D at truth. The
directOrS-certainly two of them-come
back and make fiat and emphatic denials
of DR.. Carrington's statements. DR.. Car
rington says that Gov. Mann used his
office for the advancement of the inter-
ests of his nephew. The governor denies
this, Dr. Mann denies it, and the MEM
bers of the board deny the charge. The
pa perS are full of the controversy every
day. DR.. Darlington charges that the
shoe company which is using the convicts
is opposed to him, and that it was in
terested in making a change SO that men
who, he says, unit for work in the
shops and should be sent to the farm
will be kept on the job for the benefit of
the company, and he also says that the
guards and others will trump up charges
and see 10 ii that a good workman is
prevented from obtaining a furlough
when entitled thereto.

The democratic machine. i'm its despera-

from the ticket and allow the state cen
trail committee to name either Lee az
Crothers 1t is known that a certain
element of the party has been Wcfklns
toward that end. but up To the preseni
time without success. 1t is also reporte
that when the plan was outlined Ia
Crothers he set mis- face against II 50
far as he personally was concerned. IL
is said that he gave as his reason the
belief that the democratic party MAS go
ing down to defeat by from 1880" ID

pose to be the PRINCIPAL figure i'm IA"

Preventing Diphtheria.

DR.. Ennion c. Williams. state health
commissioner, has issued a bulletin re-
lating to diphtheria and its symptoms
He calls special attention to the fact that
the disease is more prevalent in the fall
months than at any other time. and that
once the trouble gets a foothold it be-
comes more or less Of epidemic.
DIR. Williams urges parents who have
children suspected of the trouble to call
in a physician at once and to see TO II
that antitoXin is used at the very earli-
est moment. He says that antitoXin for
diphtheria is like using water on a fire
the quicker il is applied the better. Thou
sands of copies OF the bulletin are being
issued and sent TO every physician in
the state and to a large number OF
teachers and school trustees. The disease
has not appeared this year to any extent.

German Starts Campaign.

Mr. German, the democratic candidate
for governor has just begun to cam
paieu and those who know him assert
that he is not oversanguine OF success.
1t is an open secret that many Lee ad-
herents throughout the counties are WORK
ing TO defeat German One prominent Lee
worker said to The Star correspondent
today:
German put himself outside the guber-
Material primary in the closing hours OF
the last legislature. when during me
course of a speech in the senate ne de-
clared that he was through with politics
and would never again enter public Ire
In the course of his address at the NOUN
cation meeting at his home i'm laurel
German laid great stress upon the state
ment that he defed any one TO show
where he had ever broken a promise. IL
is to be presumed that Mr.. German knew
what he was saying when he announced
that he was going to retire from politics,
and if he did how can he explain getting
into the gubernatorial primary this year!
Now. ] worked hard for Lee. con-
tinued The Stars informant. but j DO
not propose to follow Lees lead and sup
port German. and ! cannot understand
how a politician of Lees caliber can
bring himself to the point OF supporting
German under the circumstances. In the
light of the grand jury exposures in this
city il is my firm belief that the same
frauds were perpetrated against Lee in
the counties and that a probe In the
counties would reveal the fact that Lee
won the primary election hands down.
