And, speaking OF newspaper men in

reminding you that one OF the ablest
men of the last legislature was a rep

Iren, Bill was popular and one of
the best-hearted fellows in the world,
but not so proficient in the art of

rem. | remember that on one oeca-
sion the legislature had before it a
bill appropriating $4,000 for a pipe or
gan for the Florida Female College.
Bill was opposed to the bill, and
his speech in opposition TO it ran
something like this:
Mr. Speaker, | am agin this here
bill. We have appropriated and ap-
propriated and appropriated money
TO educate the rich mans sons and
daughters Of this here state, and we
have not given any money to the
poor mans children. We appropriate
ed $4,000 for a law school building,
and we appropriated $4,000 for a
campus, and now, Mr.. Speaker, to
cap the climax they are to take $4,000
to buy one of these here piped pianos

per men are at home wherever they

| conceive it TO be unnecessary to
tell the members of this convention
that for the next few days the city

Ocala is cosmopolitan city; that it
has as residents all kinds of people;
that it has Baptists and Methodists
and all other denominations: that it
has democrats, republicans and bull
moose and all kinds of politics;
that it has wet and dry people and
rich and poor people, and all class

Another reason why the meeting of
the executive committee is timely is
that there are many places in the state
where the republican city tickets are
bound to meet with success at the cleo
tion this fall and the republicans in
such places are working enthusiastic
cally with their old time vim Re-
publican city victories this fall Will
mean much in the way of giving the

The raid which was made a few
days ago on the pocketbooks of Indi-
ana democratic congressman at wash
ington is the subject of a resolution
introduced in congress by Representa-
tive Mann, the republican leader. The
resolution. according to a dispatch
from Washington. asks the speaker of
the house to appoint a committee to
investigate the raid. The resolution
was sent to a committee where. of
course. ii will die a natural death, be-
cause the democrats are in control of
the house and can keep the resolution
from coming to a vote.
The raid referred to is the one
wherein the democratic congressional
committee made assessment on

This happened a few days ago. and

1t is pointed out that it would be q

ny of a committee after having been
held up for SIS in cold cash.

WHAT Ais THE ARMY 2

Secretary of War Garrison reports
that he finds the United States army
unprepared.
Why?
Remote as the possibilities of tou-
BILE are there is every opportunity for
and reason why our small body of
regular troops should be the best in
the world.
With a military academy far ex-
ceeding in the excellence of it's train
ing anything Great Britain can show
in Sandhurst or Woolwich, and
scarcely surpassed on the Continent,
we can produce and should have the

CLAMPING DOWN THE LID.

Things don't look from the inside
just as they do from the outside.
For instance, there was the mat

its legislative program, to adopt the
very methods the leaders of the party
in power were denouncing so vehem-

so that every citizen, no matter how

Heart toHeart
Talks
BY JAMES A. EDcERTON

TIE CARPENTER OF NAZARETH.
The dream of my life has been to
voice the essential teachings of the
Nazarene in newspaper English. to do
this as | would write of any other sub
ject. an editorial or news story, for ex-
ample, and without pretense, theology
or cant.
/ still have this dream. and some day
l am going to make it come true.
Today the newspaper is the avenue
of universal appeal In a sense it is
the peoples pulpit.
Today the need of the world in every
department of our life is. the spirit of
these same teachings
We need it in politics. in business. In
industry, in the school. in the home
and In the hearts of the people.
The PRONUNCIATION of these essential
truths is not the monopoly Of any in
stitution or calling.
The teachings of the Nazarene are
the common property of humanity.
Neither are they something apart
from our everyday affairs. They are
woven into the very texture of our life.
They are the essence of modern de-
mocracy.
They are the very cornerstone of
Americanism.
They are alive with the spirit of lib
erty.
They are as truth loving as modern
science.
They are the Hottest common sense.
In spirit. If not in words, they recog-
nize the fact that perfect individuality
and brotherhood go together; that they
complete and fulfill each other.
Now and then 1t is necessary for q
people to go back to the fountain of
their inspiration. to find the springs
from which flowed the stream OF their
national life. to revive their ancient
literature and traditions, to renew their
spirit and especial genius.
Ireland went through such a process
In the Gaelic renaissance. 1t marvel
ously awakened the land, even reviv-
ing her industries.
The springs of our inspiration are the
teachings of the Nazarene. He was
the first democrat the reformer, the
apostle Of brotherhood of peace, Of lib
erty of conscience, of the gospel of
service.
Would it not be a great thing IL we
could go back to this fountain to renew
the spirit of our institutions?
Here is a work for newspapers ar
molders of public opinion.
Back to the fountain. Back to the
Nazarene!

TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis. Ind. Sept. 20.-The
meeting Of the executive committee of
the republican state committee which
has been called for next Thursday in
this city is an important development
in the political situation of the state
at this time. according to State Chair
man Fred A. Sims. He says that the
reports which he has been receiving
for some time from all parts of the
state show that there is a constantly
increasing activity among the republi-
cans Of Indiana. and that they are TAX
ing the field to carry a vigorous
battle. Therefore, he thought 1t ad-
visable to call the executive commit
tee together for meeting, so that all
of the members could hear the reports
and discuss plans for future action on
the part of the state organization.
Mr.. Sims is enthusiastic over the
news which comes to him from over
the state, and he is preparing to take
advantage of the awakened interest
among republicans. While it is too
early to lay definite detailed plans for
next years state campaign, 1T is not
too early 70 rthe executive committee
to get together and talk things over
and make preparations in advance for
carrying on a line of campaign. This
will be the first meeting of the ex-
ecutive committee since the campaign
of last year, but this one promises to
be full of interest.
The executive committee is com
posed of George b. Lockwood. chair
man. of Muncie; Enos Porter. of Shell

about. and sooner or later the preced-
ent will be followed in ell the de-
partments. and things will go on as
they used to. and as they always
have gone on in well regulated priv
ate business establishments.
For the efficient transaction of the
work of any business enterprise pri-
vate or public, there must be some
centering of responsibility. Some
body rather than everybody must do
the talking, and that talk must be re-
sponsible and not irresponsible.
