Barnes Attacks Democrats,

The government Of the state at the pres
ent time. Mr.. Barnes thought, was good
example of A machine without ideas, and
As proof of his words he offered the fact
that no machine with real ideas would
have advanced the Levy election law or
the late charter, which tried to legisste
out of Office men properly elected by the
people"
From the statements OF Governor DIX,
that the Democrats would now so for
ward which statement ne pointed out came
after the last election. Mr.. Barnes thought
that the Democrats figured on washing
ont the errors OF 1911 with a big perform
anco OF the follies Of 1872 but he was
confident that the Republican Assembly
would not aid them in tho plan.
Speaking phiosophically, Mr.. Barnes
went on TO say that the terms 'progres-
sive" and 'reactionsry" had no meaning.
"Vbatever may bo a concrete reform Of
condition is true remedy, and what
ever strikes At organic law Is false
remedy was his way Of putting the same
proposition. and as an example he declared
that the cry for popular election of Sena-
tors was one Of the false remedies he had
IN mind. because it sought to create two
lodtcs Of legislators elected directly. which
was contrary to tho Constitution The
only proper remedy to apply in that case.
if people thought the Senate should be re-
formed in that way, would be 10 abolish IT
entirely. me said
Mr Parsons took issue with Mr.. Barnes
on that and called his attention to the
! fact that most Of The Republicans at the
dinner who had been delegates to the last
/ state convention, had voted for the plank

The Republican party. said Mr. Parsons
I had always been 10 him the party Of com
! mon sense. and IL the people wanted a

lady. She had arranged to go with a
friend TO Edinburgh and after dress
ing herself and finding she had still
few minutes to spare before train
time, she decided to have a look at
two eggs which ought to have hatched
out the day before. Proceeding to the
garden she found the eggs still un-
hatched, and thinking they were un-
fertile, she took out the eggs and put
one in each pocket of her ulster, with
a view of taking them to the house.
On reaching the door she found her
neighbor waiting for her with the In
formation that 1t would take them
all their time to catch the train. The
lady accordingly ran into the house
for her umbrella, and, forgetting all
about the eggs, proceeded with all
haste to the station. On approaching
the ticket office she put her hand in
her pocket to get her purse when
she was shocked to find that she had
omitted to leave the eggs behind. Be-
ing afraid that they might get broken
and spoil her, dress, she thoroughout
the journey sat with hand in each
pocket holding the eggs. The heat Of
