NEW YORK MAY KEEP II.

There is being offered TO patrons of
the theater a play which has as its
theme visits by a wife to a luxurious
fiat where she entertains rich men in
exchange for finery; and the discov-
cry of the wife's picture in this place
by the husband, a real. estate agent,
who goes to the fat TO sign a lease
with its woman manager.
The wife seeks for her conduct in
the libelOus statement that they all
do it, while the husband makes no
excuse at all-he chokes her.
The play, we are told, made a
great hit in New York" In our
opinion it should have stayed there.
Such ulcers Of greed are not welcome
in communities where the grace and
beauty of clean home life are still
widely priced. They teach nothing
that isn't already understood by stu
dents of social problems and as en-
tertainment they are disappointing.
There are tragic lessons which need
to be taught by the stage; but this
kind of show is simply clap trap. a
combination of vulgarity and nasti-
ness.
Why don't the makers of plays give
US more "Old Homesteads"

who broke Myron Kings ribs?

Who broke Myron Kings ribs?
Who were the men who were re-
sponsible for the dastardly crime
which obliged King to give up bust
ness life and place himself in the
hands of surgeons for an extended
period?
And why was he made the victim
of a cowardly assault that forms one
of the blacklist pages in Indiana's leg
islative history?
King was the secretary to Gov.
Claude Matthews. He was sent by
the governor to carry to the legisla-
ture the chief executives veto of a
vicious job-grabbing bill, which had
the further purpose of robbing the
executive CT his rights.
Anticipating the governors just
wrath a group of republican leglsla-
tors waited in the corridor for King,
and when he emerged from the COVER
nOr's office with the veto he was i'm
prisOned in the elevator, and so brut-
ally handled that when rescued final
ly, ii was found that three of his ribs
had been fractured.
Would the men who perpetrated
this crime like to have their names
set for the people of the state to
gaze upon?
1t is instructive TO note that no
republican newspaper in the state
ever suggested that this c,'ii. e com
mitted by their own legislature be
punished Nor to this day has any
one of the quality parties ever been
brought to justice.
House bill 533 of the republican
legislature of 1907 prescribing a
method for the preparation of ballots
for proposed constitutional amend
ments" passed both houses. But the
bill was side tracked and never found
its way into the acts. At a subse-
quent session of the legislature the
bill was again introduced and be-
came a law.
What explanation have the repub-
leans to make concerning the myster-
iOus history of house bill 5S3?
Voters would like to know. also.
about senate bill l27, introduced in
the 1907 legislature?
This was a republican legislature,
remember. BY the journal of that
session the republican party stands
convicted. Bill 127 is a single eX-
ample. This was an important
amendment affecting the rights of
citizens in their dealings with foreign
corporations. 1t was defeated. Yet

pensions has a valid claim on public
sentiment and the consideration of
law makers. The plan takes care Of
one of the problems that has long
perplexed and defeated legislative
enactment. 1t provides not only for
the physical maintenance of depend
ent children but for their moral and
mental welfare. Instead of depriv-
ing them of homes and making them
inmates of public institutions it in
sures the permanency of the home and
its protecting and fostering influences
and for the mothers care of her own
offspring.
Instead of being intrusted to the
care of strangers, disinterested if not
incompetent, dependent children who
have mothers will be permitted to
grow to maturity in charge of the one
person who has more interest in their
welfare than any other person in the
world The requirements of good
citizenship and public economy de-
mand that the best facilities for insur-
ing these, a mothers tender care and
the shelter of tie family rOoftree shall
be given to the children who are de-
prived by death, disability or un-
worthiness of fathers aid and pro-
lection.

Bits Of Republican Record
Upon Which That Party No1U
Asks Return To Confidence

the acts of 1907 contains this amend
ment.
The republican party apparently
never made any effort to trace the
means through which this bill was
fradulently placed in the acts. Why
were not the guilty parties punished -!
The republican state central com
mittee objected to the statement that
the Hanly administration used the
sinking fund of $1,50O,000 in pay
ment OF current expenses.
The facts are, that the Hanly ad-
ministratiOn, by an act of the repub-
I hcan legislature of 1905, transferred
the three-cent sinking fund, in it's en-
tirety, to the general fund for the
years 1905, 1906 and 1907, and used
the proceeds Of the tax, amounting to,
approximately, s1,500,00O, for the
payment of current expenses.
The three-cent sinking fund was
restored for the years 1908 and 1909
with a joker attached, authorizing the
state board of finance to transfer the
sinking fund to the general fund.
The republican administrations
were so economical with the state 5
money that they not only managed
to use up all their own tax levies, in
Guiding the special transfer of the
three-cent levy from the sinking fund
to the general fund, by the Hanly ad-
ministration, but they also made ad-
vance calls on the counties 20 the ex-
tent of SIS, 100000. This huge sum of
money was handled as if it had been
a mere matter of SIS, instead of mil
lions. And this is the party that is
prating about extravaganza in state
administration.
This is a small part of the bad rec
ord on which the republican party is
asking for a return to power. Strong
ly intrenched for many years, it
ignored the wishes of the people. car
ried things with a high hand, and
scOrnfully rejected the suggestion
that a day of reckoning was bound to
come. The old leaders refused TO be-
lieve that they would ever De turned
out of power.
The result of their high handed
methods was the making Of a record.

legislature, that fairly smells 10

INSANE c. O. p. COMMENT.

ADLAI E. STEVENSON DEAD
Former Vice-President Had Been Ill
Several Months-Was Born In
Kentucky.

Chicago.-Adlai E. Stevenson, vice
president of the United States through
the second Cleveland administration,
died at a hospital here after an illness
of several months. His three children
were at his bedside.
Adlai Ewing Stevenson, once vice.
president of the United States, had a
long and honorable public career. He
was vice-president from 1893 to 1897
under President Cleveland. In 1900
he was again nominated by the Demo-
cratic party for vice-president and ran
with William j. Bryan, the party's can
didate for president, but was defeated.
He served as member of the forty
fourth and forty-sixth congresses, and
from 1885 to 1889 he was first assist
ant postmaster-general under Presi-
dent Cleveland.
Mr.. Stevenson was born in Chris
tian county, Kentucky, October 20,
1885, of Scotch-Irish %parentage. In
1852 his parents moved to Blooming
ton, Ill. He attended the public
schools and the University of Illinois.
