nate. either as to the patience Of his
friends, or In securing recognition for
them without getting into the lime
light as q patronage hunter. Not once
has a Marshall slate been suggested
in connection with Indiana's share Of
the spoiis Of victory.
Much interest attaches to this
deliveranco Of Mr.. Marshall at this
time. It throws tho old ticket into the
scale in Indiana, where pretty earnest
campaign is In progress. Moreover the
democratic managers are pressing the
President to visit the state and speak
before election day.
Still another point is that Thomas
Taggart-very clever at the political
same-is patting the bull moosers on
the back and declaring that their or
ganizatfon is holding well in Indiana,
however It may have suffered or is
suffering elsewhere. This shows that
his reliance for democratic success this
year is on them. II they VIII keep
the formerly republican vote divided
he will be able to put his ticket
through.
Mr.. Taggart and his friends deny
that they are scared. They express
every confidence In their ability to
win. But they want all the help they
can get--that from the use OF Mr.. Mar
shal1's name for denomination, that
from the presence on the stump in the
state OF Mr.. Wilson. and that from tho
bull moosers az a disturbing force
among the republicans. Thus the
Hoosier campaign takes prominence
next to that Of New York.

Indiana.

The Vice President the other day
spoke only for his chief. It is true,
however. that the denomination Of Mr..
Wilson should mean the denomination Of
Mr.. Marshall. The appeal should be for
the old ticket
No jar of any kind between the two
men has been reported. They get
along together well in office. 1t is
worthy of note. too. that Mr.. Mar
shalrs name has not figured in any
of the gossip about Indiana patronage.
He seems not to have tried to direct
the distribution of the loaves and fishes
assigned to the Hoosier state.
The opposite policy brought Mr..
Hendricks into collision with Mr.. Cleve-
land soon after they took office togeth-
Ell in 1850. Mr.. Hendricks had long
been a leader in Indiana affairs, and
was under obligations to many demo-
cratic workers in the state. When he
became Vice President some of them
appealed to him for patronage. and he
with confidence presented their cases
TO the President. But Mr.. Cleveland
was hard pressed for places and did
not respond as expected. and Mr.. Hen
bricks. being made to appear helpless
before his friends, became offended. At
the time of his death he was not on
terms with his chief.

Have the Germans Been Flanked9

Evidently the German campaign In
France has reached critical point.
which may in short time develop dis
astrously for either the allies or the in
vaders. The French war Office has Issued
a conservative communication to the ef-
feet that the allies have advanced their
left wing without energetic opposition
from the enemy. while the London ofn-
cial statement is to the effect that the al
lied forces. acting on the offensive. nave
been successful in checking and forcing
back in northeastern direction the Ger
man forces opposed to them. An unof1-
cial dispatch states that Gen. Pau has
announced a victory over the Germans
at Precy-sur-o'se. about twenty-five
miles north of Paris.
An interesting feature of this last mem
toned unofficial dispatch is that it states
that in front of the French troops. on
the right of the allied line. were the Ger
man imperial guards under the crown
prince The kaiser's eldest son has here
tofore been reported as present at the
fighting around verdun. The presence
of the emperor in eastern France and
the later appearance, according to this
report. of the crown prince in the neigh
borhood of Paris suggest that the lat
ter may have been relieved from his
command in the east.
The French official statement announces
that Saturday and Sunday the Germans
had advanced into the region between
Coulomrliers and La Ferte-Gaucher, the
former of which is about thirty miles
east of Paris. 1t is surmised in some OF
the unofficial dispatches that this may
have been an advance force and that pos
sibly it's communication with the main
German army has been cut. although
there is nothing in official announce
ments to justify such a supposition.
Apparently there is no immediate like
ihood of the investment of Paris by the
Germans. who are either making de-
termined effort to roll up the French
army between their eastern and western
wings or have been actually forced to
assume a defensive position against the
sudden aggressiveness of the French
and English. The fact that fighting has
occurred at Precy-sur-oise. while Ger
man troops have appeared about forty
miles to the northeast. suggests that in
stead of Ranking the allies the Germans
have themselves been flanked.
If it be true. as has been frequently re-
ported during the past week. that large
numbers of German troops have been
withdrawn from the western field,
whether Belgium or Alsace. In order to
reinforce the line now resisting the Rus
sian advance in the east. 1t is probable
that by this time there has been a loss
of German numerical superiority in
France. The allied forces have been re-
cruited, 1t is stated beyond the losses
suffered during these weeks of fighting.
while it is doubtful whether the German
army on the fighting lines is now as
large as it was when the invasion of
France began.

The Star spangled Banner.
From the New York World.


It is highly fitting that the army and
navy, by the Presidents order. should
FIRE a national salute to the flag next
Saturday in connection with the cele-
bration at Baltimore Of THE Star
Spangled Banner" centennial. The oc-
casion is one for national. not merely
local, observance. and for the manifes-
tation by ali Americans Of their devo.
ton to the nag and all that It fepre-
sents. It. is not in glorification Of war
that next Saturday 1O0.000,000 people
will be called to pay loyal tribute to
the nag. It is not as the banner Of war
and the symbol Of bloody triumphs on
land and sea that they reverence 1t. II
stands as the emblem Of liberty and
peaceful progress to all who truly love
it and prize it as the nations title to
the worlds respect. 1t has a higher
meaning than the guns Of our war;
ships and forts can convey by their
formal salutes. for 1t Is the property OF
all the people, and they alone, though
silent, are capable Of approaching the
sentiments that it embodies.

Roosevelt in Louisiana.

At New Orleans last night Mr.. Roose-
welt dealt with two subjects of very great
interest to the people of Louisiana: O
The Mississippi river, and e. the cane
sugar industry.
He handled the former shrewdly. He
would lay out the twenty-five million dol
lars which the Wilson administration
would pay to Colombia in comp ensation
for Panama-he characterized it as
''blackmair'- river improvements, land
as many more scores Of millions extra as
are necessary to take control Of the Mis-
sissippi, and to develop all it's possible
ties of usefulness from the headwaters
to the delta"
That alone, we may all be sure, would
have made him popular with his audience.
THE big river when in bounds is great
blessing to all the people Of the valley;
when out of bounds-and 1t breaks bounds
nearly every year-a great curse over
flows are widely and terribly destructive,
and the Louisiana people have to stand
their share of fate's assessment.
The tariff was not so much to the
speakers hand. His own record on the
subject is against him. While in the White
House he did nothing for tariff revision,
but by his neglect contributed to the diff
flculties his party encountered when the
matter was at last taken up. Revision in
1901, when he entered the presidency,
could have been accomplished without
embarrassment to the republicans. By
1909 1t had become task 50 full Of peril
t split them wide open In the execution.
For the disaster he was largely response
Bile.
Nor were his auditors last night in any
better position. Hardly so good. They
helped bring in the administration which
has proved their undoing. They adjusted

worked OF. unless the day is saved by a
restoration of the duty on sugar.
ers. for a liberal estimate OF their
strength in the next House is twenty.
The sole hope Is in the republicans, either
now. or two years hence.
But the Louisiana sugar planters are
not protectienists except as TO their own
industry. Their senators and representa-
tives, while insisting on protection for
sugar. have, with few exceptions, often
voted against protection for the industries
Of other sections. The tariff, in their view
and action, Is, in Gen. Hancock's phrase,
