stories originated in Louisville, the
headquarters OF the L. & n.

move is being made on account OF tho

being done so as to head off the Pen

Real Progress.

The democratic house of repre-
sentatives in Nebraska has adop-
ted a new rule providing for roll
call in committee Of the whole.
The committe of the whole house
is where the enemies Of the pub
lie welfare frequently do their
most skillful work and their
agents in the legislature work
faithfully for them knowing that
there is no way of putting them
on the written record.
Often these men who are
false to the public interests have
their vote recorded right on the
final roll call.
The reform adopted in Nebras-
ka provides for roll call in the
committee of the whole and thus
requires every man to go upon
record at every stage Of the pro-
ceedings.s
A splendid reform it is and
thoroughly in keeping with the
democratic spirit of the day.

AMMoNs PROTESTS
FISHER APPOINTMENT.
Governor Wires McCombs, De-
claring Retention Of Secre-
tary Slap at Colorado.

Governor Ammons, Thomas j.
McCue and George T. Bradley
notified President-elect Wilson
by wire, through William F. Nc
Combs, national chairman, that
if, as rumored, Walter L. Fisher
is to be continued as secretary of
the Interior that his appointment
would be "a slap in the face of
every Colorado citizen.
I'VE think we have the right to
know if President Wilson is con-
sidering Fisher" says the wire
of Governor Ammons, and he
asks that McCombs telegraph a
reply if there is any truth in the
report Of the appointment.
Governor Ammons, with Col
oradoans of all parties, regard
less Of party affiliation, are thor
oughly aroused over the persis-
tent rumors that Fisher is to be
retained, and the movement in
opposition to the secretary has
assumed gigantic proportion since
Thursday, when, in response to
a long telegram from Congress
man Edward T. Taylor, who is
now in Washington. Governor
Ammons got into immediate COM
munication with many promi-
nent Colorado men.
The Governor will ask every
commercial body along with
men of all parties in every eoun-
ty in the state, to keep rolling
the ball of protest, until it as
sumes such size that it cannot be
disregarded by the president
elect.
In a letter mailed to both Will
son and Met combs, Bradley said
THAT there could be no more ur-
satisfactory appointment" and
added that only the persistence
of the newspaper reports that
Fisher was to be left undisturbed
in his position in the cabinet
caused Coloradoans to give them
notice. Rocky Mountain News.

Wall Street And Woodrow
Wilson,

Under the headline, wall
street and Wilson," the Johns
town (Pa.) Democrat prints the
following editorial:
Among the Wall Street organs
of big business none is more trou-
bled in spirit over the unruliness
of Woodrow Wilson than the New
York Herald.
Itwas among those great jour-
nalistic champions Of things as
they are which laid the f1attering
JUNCTION to their souls that the
New Jersey governors platform
was designed tc get in on, not to
stand on; and now that it finds
that Governor Wilson is taking
his pledges and promises serious
ly and is determined to have 9TH
ers take them seriously the Her
aid emits a roar of anguish which
would do credit to the Sun itself.
In an editorial charging that
the president-elect is under the
baneful influence of w. ]. Bryan.
the esteemed Herald says:
when Mr.. Wilson was elected
to the presidency there was no
thought that he was to be a
BRYAN. He said that none ofthe
reforms presented by him in in
definite terms and believed to be
academic would be carried out in

Meet Your Debts And Be
Popular.
BY WALT MASON.

We all desire the worlds ap-
plause, and for it strive and
strain; it's labor in worthy
cause, but often done in vain.
Reverses come and come again,
and kindred bitter pills; you can
not win the love of men, unless
you pay your bills. One fellow
cultivates his voice and sings like
golden Tyre, and hopes to- make
the world rejoice, or set the same
on fire; "and," say the worldly
rubbernecks, he'd fill our hearts
with thrills, and be a credit to
his sex, if he would pay his
bills. One follows up Demos
themes and binds us with a spell,
and much he hopes the world to
please, and please it passing
wellSbut mankind hears this guy
crate. and says. in tones that
chills: He'd be the glory of
his state, if he would pay his
bills!" No matter to what
heights you go. or how you con-
quer fame, the story of the scads
you owe will cling around your
name, And so it's better far to
climb the low and humble hills.
and leave the shining heights
sublime until you've paid your
bills.

For Irish law will find no flaw in

Till curtains of terror were drawn.
They wept at the Sassenach scars
Red-angry on Shemus and Shaun.

But from your lost garden OF green
Came breath that no jailer could

And, glory be! old ghosts will see the

LOADED DICE"

When Governor Wilson, in his
Chicago speech alluded to the
stern and suspicious attitude that
the people hold to business meth
ods and business men, he meant,
of course, to include only big
business in the scope of this con-
demnation.
There is now, and has been, a
concerted attempt to make it ap-
p ear that the popular indignation
was directed against all wealth
and all industry, and that no one
who attains a competence is ex-
empt from hatred and attack.
This is nothing more than an eff
fort to draw AIRED f1eEring across
the scent. The great revolt now
in progress is not against those
who win wealth fairly and hon
-estiy, but against those who
amass huge fortunes by manipu-
lation af loaded dice.
The leaders of the forward
movement are not preaching any
equality in poverty. but an equal
ity in the means of gaining a
livelihood and in winning a COM
petence. They are not crying
out against business or the busi-
ness man, but against the un-
scrupulous and the unfair in bus
.iness and those whose business
methods are predatory, corrupt
and monopolistic.
Big business never did a
shrewder thing than the promo
ton of the lie that the present
discomfort and unrest is directed
against all business. BY means
of it the overlords of finance and
industry have secured the sympa-
thy and support of thousands OF
good, clean men, whose interests
are, in the last analysis, identi-
cal with those Of the great body
of people.
It is not against good business
and clean business methods that
the fight is being made. but
against bad business and crooked
gamblers. Denver News.

disturbance. The country took
him at his word and he went in
as a minority president. but it
saw to it that his plurality was
sufficient to give him a majority,
of the electoral college.
"Yet the public is now realiz-
ing that Mr.. wilson is under the
influence of Mr.. Bryan, and his
utterances have breathed such a
hostile spirit toward business.
have demonstrated such a hec-
toring tone and generally have
shown such spirit of intoler-
ance that confidence has been
shaken and the outlook is not
satisfactory. 1t is almost as If
Bryan were president-elect.
''Mr. Wilson can easily break
himself by pursuing his present
course. But that isn't important
compared with breaking the
country"
But what part Of the country
is Governor Wilson breaking or
threatening to break? And in
what particular does his present
course differ from his course in
the rast? Is not what he is say
ing in 1913 wholly consistent
with what he said when he first
came before the country as
presidential candidate?
All, but Mr.. Wilson is under the
influence of Mr.. Bryan. That is
to say, he is not under the influ-
ence of Mr.. Morgan. Mr.. Bel
mont or Mr.. Ryan. Were he un-
der an influence SO benign as
theirs this would be happy land
indeed and Wall street might
pull its silken robes about it and
lapse back into its golden dreams
But with the Bryan influence be-
lraying itself it promises to glib
bet the Ryans and Morgans and
Belmonts as high as Aaman if
they join in a conspiracy to
wreck the country in . spirit of
mad revenge, the situation be.
comes alarming indeed and the
Herald is quite justified in sound
ian the tocsin.
Still matters might be worse.
c ,nsidered from the standpoint
of field and forge, for apparently
the distress which racks the soul
|of Wall street is not shared by
the hewers of wood and the
drawers of wates The plain
people seem to be fairly well sat
isfied with Governor Wilson and
the influences which he appears
to court and SO far from his
curse having a tendency to ruin
the country. it seems to be quite
the other way about, the country
showing little sign of alarm and
manifesting daily an increasing
confidence in the lofty courage
and high purpose of the gentle
man whom Wall street seems to
so thoroughly distrust.
The country indeed took Gov
ernor Wilson at his word and he
is now keeping faith with III,
country by making it clear that
his word was not lightly given
an is not to be lightly broken.
The people were not fooled in
Wilson. But Wall street mace

the belief that he didn't mean
what he said.

Re. ports from both camps are to the eff feet that the men are in excellent condition, and as the two elevens are practically evenly matched in weight and experience. an interesting battle IS assured. The visitors are coming with determination to return with the pedagogues' scalp, while the teachers are equally sure they will come out victorious.
 The lineup for the Normal will probably be as follows: o. Wray. left enc; Goza, left tackle; H. Moore, left guard; Harris, center; Hacker, right guard; E. Wray, right tackle; T. Ray, right end; T.

PROPOSES PALARM
 AS ASSEMBLY SITE LOCATION CALLED IDEAL
DIR. MILLAR SUGGESTS PLACE FOR EPWORTH ASSEMBLY
 GROUNDS.

spot near Palarm station. just across the southern boundary of Faulkner county, is suggested in a recent article by Dr. A. c. Millahr in the Western Methodist as a site for the proposed Epworth Assembly grounds in this state.
 "The site under consideration" writes pr. Millar, lis a bluff over- looking the Arkansas river at the mouth of Palarm creek. As previous ly indicated, this is almost exactly at the geographical center of the state and at the very spot where the Ar kansas, Little Rock and White River conferences meet. It is in Pulaski county, on the north side of the river and the east side of Palarm creek, consequently in the territory of the White River conference. It is proba- ble that not one preacher in one hun dred in Arkansas was ever at the point where the three conferences meet. It is easily accessible, because it is on the Little Rock & Fort Smith railroad and so near that conveyance will not be necessary to carry people from the trains to the encampment There are four trains day each way on this road and it is so near Little Rock that it is convenient to all parts of the state. It is on the river and could be reached by boat, and passen- gers on the Rock Island railroad could get off at Natural Steps and cross the river in boat. A good au- tomobile road is being constructed from Little Rock to Fort Smith along this route. While it is at the conflu- ence of the Palarm creek and the Ar kansas river, there is no swamp near and nothing to cause sickness. The bluff at the river is about two hun dred feet above the river and in hot weather good breeze is always stir ring. This bluff runs back as rocky
 ridge for about half mile, is covered with pine and oak trees, and the view up and down the river is very fine. The Pinnacle mountain is in full view four miles south and the Natural Steps are between. There are springs at the end of the ridge and valley below that could be converted into an artificial lake with little expense. The river and creek afford fishing, boat ing and bathing. There is deep water and then a flat sandy beach, so that arrangements can be made for safe bathing for the unskilled. The creek gives opportunity for variety. There are level places with rocky hill sides overlooking, making fine athlet- ic fields with natural amphitheaters. About 240 acres can be secured in one body and as much more near by. The land lies so that with the clearing of the underbrush and opening of walks and drives there is ample room for tents, bungalos and all other build ings and recreation grounds. While there are higher places in the state, still there is no other place that con- pines attitudes and all the advantages mentioned. Being near Little Rock and the center of population, the as- sembly would draw large crowds when special attractions were offer
