NEW NETHERS.
The Kind Of Stockings That Go With
Fall Shoes.


Whoever said that simple footwear
was coming back into fashion was
much mistaken. TO be sure, certain
STYLES of fancy" shoes were marked
down last winter, but other styles quite
as elaborate took their place, and, as
for stockings, never before have they
been so varied and so far from plain
or simple.
There is some thought that cotton
stockings, colored ones at that, may be
worn. for the price Of silk stockings Is
soaring by the hour. But just at the
moment silk stockings are made in
hundreds of patterns.
Stripes form the most prominent
stocking decoration or motive. Some
times they are up and down stripes,
sometimes stripes running around;
sometimes they extend the whole
length Of the stocking, sometimes only
halfway down or halfway up.
There are checked stockings, too,
and plaid ones, and there are stock
ings with odd and irregular designs.
Then, too, regular clocking at the
ankles, in colors or black on white, is
a prominent feature of the summer
stockings. Clocks are especially smart
for wear with sport shoes, and they
add to the effectiveness Of low shoes
worn with short skirts.
One black and white combination
shows half inch stripes extending from
the toe to the calf, ending there in ar
rOwheads. Another shows panel of
stripes extending the full length of the
stocking, about four inches across the
front.
One of the newer sorts of evening
stockings show beaded embroidery,
This is in line with the vogue for bead
ed embroidery and sequins and span
giles that is so strong for evening
frocks.
Inserts of real lace, too In fine silk
stockings are used for evening. And
another evening idea is white silk
stocking painted with flowers to
match Il painted kid slipper This, of
course is SO unusual that it may al
most be considered a freak style But
it is interesting and is mentioned for
what it is worth.

SPRINGFIELD 80, MIDDLEBURY 0.

The College varsity lost to Springfield
at Springfield Saturday, go, in
an "overtime' game. The quarters
were to be u minutes, but the first
quarter ran for % minutes before it
was discovered that there were no time
keepers. The extra length of the game,
and the continual substitution of fresh
men for Springfield, who had in all 2S
different men in the line up, was suf
ticient to defeat Middlebury by the five
touchdowns, In the first quarter with
the ball in Springfeld's possession
tackle was made and the man thrown
to the ground, when after the down
was made Springfield man noticed that
the referee had neglected to blow his
whistle and selling the ball ran Is
yards for a touchdown. Score at end
of first half, 12-0.
BY substitutions of new men in the
second half Springfield ran the score up
to go, gaining by long end runs and
brilliant forward passes. Sermon,
Gale and Graham played star games for
Springfield. In the third quarter Parker
was blocked in punting and Murphy fell
on the ball for Springfeld's fourth
touchdown.

score of CO. The men We're taken there

were of equal weight, but superior
team work and interference on the part
of Mddlebury were instrumental in

defensive all the time, Allyn plugged
the line for ten yards and goal in the

WHY Is A COMMITTEEl

Although we have a representative
form OF government SO far as election
of public officers is concerned, we
AVE an autocracy in the manage
ment of the more important features
of our party affairs. The candidate
for President selects the chairman of
the national committee. who becomes
manager of the quadrennial cam
paign. The national committee, in 60
ing through the form of electing a
chairman. merely ratifies the selec-
ton made by the nominee.
While there are some things to be
said in support of this plan. yet
there is now much question of the
wisdom of this procedure. 1t is ar
gued, and with much force. that If
the judgment of the members of the
national committee is of any value
whatever. the committee should ex-
ercise the power of selecting its
chairman and should direct the man
agement of the campaign. We have
had in the recent contest an illustra-
ton of results of the selection of a
man who has business ability in some
lines. but who is entirely lacking in
political experience or In personal ac-

OHIO's .FLOP"

Perhaps the hardest blow to true
American faith is the falling away of
Ohio from its traditional position in
support of our institutions and the
spirit we have boosted in the past.
That the state of Mckinley, Garfield,
Hayes, Sherman and a host of other
great Americans should forsake the
Republican party standard at a time
OF national crisis is astounding.
Where is the patriotism of Ohio that
1t could uphold surrender of Ameri-
al rights as against protection of
them? What has become Of the sons
of 0hioans who shed their blood and
laid down their lives in behalf of hui
man rights and national honor? Why
the reversal of fidelity to the policy of
protection to American industries
that has made Ohio one of the leading
industrial states of the Union in favor
Of free trade that is bound to injure
her interests? In the land beyond.

try which they held SO dear.-Pitts-

COMPETITION

Commerce statistics continue to
present evidence of the keen competi-
ton we shall have to meet when the
war is over. Cuba achieved a 20 per
cent increase in her sales to us dur
ing the first nine months of this year
compared with a similar period last
year, or from $169,000.0O0 to s2O2,-
900, 900. AS most of this was account
ed for by sugar, and as the duty on
sugar was reduced Is per cent, Cuba
getting a duty still 20 per cent lower
by reason of our treaty with her,
some idea can be had as to the profits
which rolled into the Golfers of the
trust controlled by the sea-board
sugar reiners, who subscribed so lib
orally to Democratic campaign ac-
tivities, and whose lobby for free SUI
gar received the support of President
Wilson. yhey refine the sugar and

pie for higher prices. Fine brand of

given out by his Cleveland trends,
that he intends to do so has a hope
full sound.
Secretary Baker possesses no more
qualification for the office conferred
upon him than Mr.. Bryan possessed
as Secretary of State, and the Hon
orable Josephus as head of the Navy.
In a public statement upon taxing up
his duties at the head of the War De-
partment, Mr.. Baker confessed his
unfamiliarity with the duties requir-
ed of him, but expressed the hope
that he would learn them.
His appointment was one Of those
personal-political ones with which
the President has distinguished his
administrator. Mr.. Baker was a
close friend, and he had been a sue

turned over to this novice one of the
most iportant portfolios within his
power to give. The result has been a
failure, so far as the public service
is concerned. Mr.. Baker has abused
our ragged, half-frozen and starved
patriot soldiers at Valley Forge, in
order to help the President out of his
%disgraceful Mexican muddle; has par
~ticipated as one of the chief movers
in the sending of our Guardsmen to
the Texas border when there was no
need for it, and gave currency just
before election to a weird yarn that
the Mexican were about to attack us.
