Upon every side public opinion is
in more or less fluid state. Party
lines hang loose. The Democrats,
holding the inside of the track, have
an advantage in the running. Pos
session may not give them the tradi-
tional nine points, but it affords an
obvious percentage Beside, though
in the last election they pOlled min
roity of the votes, they are still a un-
it. It is the Republicans who, in
leaky boats, drift as it were, on an
open sea. If the rival barks can be
brought into port, refttted and victu-
laed, the future may have another
tale to tell
First of all, however, Skipper
Roosevelt must be seen His old
friends, the malefactors of wealth,
know him for as sweet a candidate as
ever scuttled a corporation for a cam
paign fund, or cut the pigeon wing
of progress to tickle the groundlings
and inspire an army Of Christian sol
diers Hence the Gary dinner. That
settled, the second act Of this mer-
cenary scheme required that the rank
and file of the Republican party, who
stood by their guns and fought a los
ing battle four years ago, be brought
into line Who so apt as Blihu Root
to give the needed signal?
Hence the Bacon luncheon.
Business is business, and a party
which has been buying presidential
elections these 40 years is not likely
to balk before so easy thing as the
reconciliation of Theodore Roosevelt
and Elihu Root. What is a little
matter of sentiment among friendly
presidential conspirators?
Besides, the quarrel, if quarrel
there was, could never have been
more than skin deep"

Primary election is close at hand.
The Attorney General changes mind.
The law provides how such illegal
debts shall be paid. Willis dis
regards law Votes to drag the mon
ey from the public purse, If Dem
ocrat sought to flch campaign fund
from the Treasury, Willis would par
ade the crime up and down Ohio. In
January, the Attorney General, re-
publican, would not permit or vote
for this unheard of action Why
should it be wrong in January and
right in April to tap the money box?
The fragrant waste OF money on the
1915 State Fair goes unpunished.
The Emergency Board has as much
right to pay the debts of the Repub-
lican campaign committee as it has
to pay the criminal debts of the State
Fair.
Willis well earns the odium that
attaches to his reign of ruin,-Ot-
tawa Sentinel.

The first camp meeting in Ohio
was held near Dimmit's cabin in
1916. A great crowd attended, many
persons in which were converted. Lo-
rnzo Dow, noted itinerant preacher,
who travelled nearly 100000 miles
through tn wilderness of the United
States and Canada and visited Eng
land and Ireland was present. Hun
dreds of pioneer children had never
seen a preacher, and great throngs
awaited Cray Dow" as he was
known, at every point where he was
scheduled to preach.
Dow gained such fame that hun
dreds of fathers named their sons af-
ter the preacher and it is only within
the last few years that the last sur
viving namesakes have died off.
Dow gained the sobriquet, "Crazy
Dow" mainly through his 10 wing
hair and beard and wilo manner of
speech.

1t has always been known that
Ex-Governor Harmon was popular in
his own city, but the vote for State
delegate to the coming Democratic
national convention would indicate
that Ex-Governor Cox was the more
popular of the two, the latter get
ting about 500 more votes in Gin
cinnati than Mr. Harmon in the vote
last Tuesday Like a good many
people in other sections of the state,
Cincinnatians have long since seen
the error of their ways and think
more of Cox than they did when they
cast their votes for Willis.

Beautiful bags are the fad of the
hour. There appears to be longing
In the heart of every woman for at
least one of these chic accessories of
aress. A saunter along any fashiona-
BILE promenade or any sort of eXcur-

reveals parade of luxurious bags,
and all the shop windows are featur-

No one Is satisfied with just one ex-
ample of the fine art of needlewOrk as
IL appears in these lovely conceits, and
there are all sorts of bags for all sorts
of purposes. Those for wear with af-
ternoOn gowns and those for shopping
are larger than the gay and much-orna-
mented little vanity bags that might
stand for smile translated into satin
and gold lace, they are so pleasing.
No one need worry this year as to the
most acceptable Christmas gift; just
chose bag of some kind and rest
easy.
Velvet, brocade, satin, crochet work
and beads are all impressed into serv-
ice for making bags. Chinese, Jap

ute additional materials, and among
the handsOmest bags are those made of
pieces of old Paisley shawls combined

together as possible around the bag,
the ribbon varying greatly in color and

All at once all the women, from
Maine to California, have walked up
to find themselves inspired by n single
thought, and that Is a desire for a one
piece frock "a Ia chemise." With one
accord they are demanding straight
hanging gowns with little or no defini-
tiUn ut all mt the waistlinc.
Very soft satin, crepe georgette, or
other supple materials are demanded
for these frocks, which would not be
graceful in any other sort of fabric
The shapeliness of the one-piece frocb
depends upon It's tendency to cling to
the wcarer's figure. Hence the supple
materials used and the devices for
weighing them. This Is managed In
the trimmings.
IL would be hard to find better ex-
ample of the chemise dress than that
shown In the picture. Developed In
gray or other quiet colors II Is beauti-
full for daytime wear, and made up
In evening shades 1t Is charming for

broidered with silver beads and trim

Unless they are made ut home, so

TURMOIL RE|GNS ON
THE COTTON MARKET
Strong Tone of Southern
Markets Steadied Trading
to Marked Degree

New Orleans. November S.-Although
the cotton market had an unsettled tone
owing to the uncertainty over the cleo
ton results, the trend was upward today
and sentiment was bullish. Ginning re-
turns were small and encouraged q good
volume of buying while extremely bullish
cables from Liverpool and the strong
tone of southern spot markets generally
gree. At the best of the session prices
were 80 to 43 points over Mondays close;
last prices were 81 to 80 points over.
The opening of the market was attend
ed with turmoil and excited trading as
the result of the census bureau report
showing 8,S69000 bales ginned to October
81. Bulls pointed out that this meant
only 1327,000 bales ginned for the period,
the smallest turnover between October
II and October 81 since 1905. In the first
few minutes of trading prices advanced
80 to 43 points The effect of the ginning
figures was intensified by the good cables,
especially by the report of a strong rise
in the price of Egyptian cotton.
Around the opening the trade was
under the impression that the republicans
had won the election and the first signs
Of a contest over the result caused a
slump of IA to % points, but this was soon

vous fluctuations featured the trading
