Mr.. Wilson at Indianapolis.

The President takes the stump. At

democratic keynote for 1916. Both day
and place are well chosen.

self strongly on his times, and is re-
, membered with admiration and affec-
tion by the party whose leader he was
for years. OF smaller intellectual
ca1iber. he was yet as distinctly Amer
ican as Mr.. Lincoln.
Gen. jackson had two terms in the
White House, and Mr. Wilson wants a
second. Gen. Jackson bossed Congress,
and Mr.. Wilson has had considerable
success in that line. Naturally, Mr..
Wilson thinks of his great predecessor,
and honors his name day.
The place is well chosen because it
is the home of the Vice President.
who, in case of the Presidents renomi-
. nation, also should be renominated. Mr..
Marshall has given his chief support
in "ungrudging measure" and is on
excellent terms with him.
And then Indiana gives every promise
of being debatable ground again. The
democracy is not in good fettle there
today. Its majority in November was
small as compared with some previous
majorities, and since election day it
has been discredited by disclosures Of
machine politics rivaling Tammanys.
Were a polling to be taken now. the
republicans would probably sweep the
state.
1" There, too, as elsewhere, bull moosery
is dying. The republicans are getting
together Had they never separated
Indiana would have remained repub-
lican. Her industries have developed
wonderfully in the past quarter CEN
tury, and her people have ascribed
their good fortune in large measure
to protection.
In Indiana. as in New York, there is
a democratic machine under criticism
from many sources. Thomas Tag
gart rules firmly, but he rules. Now
and then he appears to give ground
under assaults, but he soon RECEIVERS it.
As a boss he is resourceful and un-
tiring, and when it comes to making
senator's and representatives and gov
ernors he has the knack of putting
over the men OF his choice.
Mr.. Taggarts relations with the ma
tional administration are pleasant
Somewhat indirectly, Mr.. Wilson does
business with him; and in 1916 the
ticket of Wilson and Marshall should
receive all the support in Indiana the
Taggart machine can possibly COM
mand.

The President and Patronage.

This appears as former Senator
Bourne's solution Of the patronage
question, made prominent just now in
the clash between the President and
the Senate:
"Mr. Bourne thinks that postmasters
collectors of customs and internal rev.
enue, appraisers, registers and receiv-
ers of land Offices, district attorneys
offices in the sense that they should be
| made elective. and the people them
selves be allowed to fll them.
Take from the President" said Mr
Bourne. ''the power of even removing
power of suspension. with the right OF
appeal by the suspended employees te
the civil service commission, which
would have the power of reinstatement
or removal. Thus only can we destroy
the evil power of patronage, free Con-
gress from subserviency to the White
House."
There are already too many elections
The primaries are almost neglected
Nominations are made by small minori-
ties, and some Of them ratified at regu-
lar elections by only slightly in.
creased vote. Why enlarge the diff
ficulty? Is 1t likely that voters would
take more interest in filling postmas-
terships, collectorships, district attor-
neyships and marshalships than they
do in goyernorships and United States
senatorships?
The question of patronage was well
considered and solved by the fathers
In dividing the responsibility between
the President and the Senate they pro-
vided for faithful and efficient public
service. All necessary is that the Pres
ident and the Senate treat each other
with the proper consideration, the for
mer consulting the latter before decid-
ing upon appointments, and the latter
examining appointments in the best
light obtainable,
A recent action by the House warns
against reducing the power of an i'm
portant Official. Until Mr.. Clark's time
the Speaker appointed the committees
and had an influential voice in leglsia-
tion. The plan worked well. Nc
speaker ever abused his authority
ever packed the committees for his
own or any other persons purposes.
But the democrats, upon coming into
control in 1911, limited the Speaker to
the duties of a presiding ot1icer. and
thus deprived themselves of the ad.
vice and directing capacity of theil
apiest representative. They went into
action with their most competent gen.
erai performing the services OF a SUP.
aitern, with no voice in making or exc
cutting the principal plans. And. il
parL, that explains the tact that IN the
last Congress the senate had, and il
the present one has, the task OF revis
ing nearly all OF the Houses work.

PEOPLE A dvis ed
Prachce Economy
.AHOver Germany
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

London, Jan. 1O-The Amsterdam
correspondent of Reuters agency says:
THE Professors of Economics at the
University of Berlin have issued an
appeal to the German nation stating
that it is the duty of everyone to
Illustrate the plan of the British gov
harvest year that hunger and want
will compel Germany to conclude a
dishonorable peace.
Accordingly the professors gave the
following five counsels for meeting this
danger: First, practice economy in
the consumption of all useful articles
of diet and make careful use of any
Eesuse that may serve any praeeleai
purpose, Secondly, eat war-bread. POI
tatoes are plentiful in Germany, while
the supply of grain for bread can only
last out if it is mixed with from ten to
twenty per cent of potatoes, or if less
bread and more potatoes are con-
sumed. Thirdly, leave white bread for
the sick and feeble, and make the
most sparing use of cakes and pastry,
as Germany lacks one-third of its Gus
tomary supply of wheat and wheat
flour. Fourthly, economic in the con-
sumption of meat, lard and butter
I'VE still have adequate supplies of
cattle, as many farmers cannot obtain
the usual fodder from abroad. It does
not follow, however, that we can
therefore eat more meat, for under the
present circumstances the supply will
soon become scanty. In any case, the
consumption of meat, lard and butter
must be restricted now so that people
need not suffer from a want of it
later. All who can, should now lay
in for their own use a supply of
smoked ham, bacon, sausages and suet,
but not too much at time Filthy,
the principal foodstuffs should be po-
tatoes, rye, wheat, oats, buc5wheat,
vegetables and fresh anc preserved
fruits.
Sugar may be used in large quaint
tiles and is an excellent article OF diet
and substitute for lard and butter.
The use is especially recommended Of
skim milk and the cheese made from
it ''Magerkase'' which, on account of
the albumen which they contain, form
an excellent substitute for meat
1T is not absolute want says the
appeal in conclusion. nut sense of
precaution which dictates the syste-
matte change in the national diet
which we recommend
