cling to the standpat leadership and hang On to
the authors Of the political larceny In Indiana
and Chicago in 1912 Will r. Wood, vicious
standpatter, who broke into Congress- last year,
presided over the state convention that disfran-
chised and ran rough shod over the Roosevelt
delegates and James Z. Watson was his floor
leader. The same sort Of tactics was used at
Chicago and James F. Watson was floor leader.
In both conventions the deliberate purpose to rob
the Republican party Of expression was carried
out and the conspiracy fathered by men still lead
ers Of the Republican party and seeking to be
candidates for office.
The great majority Of Progressives are like
Br'er Rabbit, laying low and want to see in the
last analysis if the Republicans have really
learned their lesson or are batting them with
honeyed words Of professed regret with prom
ises of moving forward to the colors of genuine
progress The splendid confession Of the Hon.
Elihu Root reads like one Of former Senator Bev-
eTidge's indictments Of the Republican party in
1912. There is bitter taste in Progressive
mouths, though, in Indiana. Watson the ring
master, repudiated by the electorate in his dis
trict and in the state, with cheek surprising his
oratory, vaults into the arena for senator evil
IDENTIFY forgetful of the peoples verdicts in the
past and the long memories of the Progressives,
who have him at the head of the column for re-
ven9e whenever he losses his fedora hat into the
ring. Every Republican that voted against him
in his defeat for Congress in the old burnt dis
trict, that also blackbaled him for Governor. and
10000 Progressives that with Republican plat
form and leadership that was simon pure on Pro
oressive principles would delight to vote its an
prevail viii lie awake o nights to defeat forever
his persistent efforts toward political resurrec-
tion.'

A Voter With an Accurate Memory

It il popularity supposed that the candidacy Of
James r. Watson for the Republican nomination
Is United States senator, recently announced, was
based on the mistaken theory that Mr.. Average
Voter has short memory. There is at least one
Indiana citizen who still recalls, with unerring
accuracy, the political record Of James Eli Wat
son. He is John c. Martin of indianapolis. It is
reasonable to suppose that there are thousands
Of other Hoosier voters who have consistently
kept tab on the Rushyille reactionary. Mr.. Mar
tin writes to the Indianapolis Star:
IL 'The inspiration Of vegetable soup at the Fair
Grounds caused the Republicans to enter the field
of prophecy and predict al sorts Of success with
all sorts Of candidates in 1916. The gulf be-
tween political visions and actual votes is =
broad one at best and will BE- decided in it's width
next year, as it was in 1872 if the Republicans

Dear Mrs. Thompson: On am a
girl is years old. 4 young man whom
met last summer has been writing
20 me for some time At first when
his letters came always showed them
20 my mother. He has been down 10
see me and my mother is fully inform
ed ae 20 his character. Now do you
think I ought TO show every letter 10
my mother? There is nothing in any
OF them ! would object 10 her know
Ing only I like 90 have them for my
self
90 Would 70 be improper 20 ask @
young man 90 stay over night az ms
house he has always stayed at the
hotel before.
DOTTY ID.
% u Is your right TO do as you
like about showing your mother the
letters. But remember she was
girl once. too. and although 70 may
az first startle her 20 find that TO-
IN nee has already entered her little
girls life. Il she IS a wise mother.
she will be the closest. most sympa-
thetic friend possible during this
time I think that II you give your
mother your confidence she viii not
criticize the letters.
co 10 would be better for him TO
stay az the hotel in the future
Usually the more difficult Il is for a
man TO see a girl the more he enjoys
L. n he stayed at your home there
would be danger OF his thinking you
we're too anxious 10 have him come.
