Conaha requests citizens of Richmond to begin
studying the matter Immediately.
Sometimes we accuse the lawmakers of stu
pdty after they have passed legislation that
does not express sentiments and thoughts.
This will be obviated in this case if we begin to
study the question now and don't wait until the
last weeks.
Senator MeConaha calls attention to another
point that should be kept in mind. Important
pieces of legislation should be ready for presen-
tation when the legislature meets, so that the
members and leaders of both houses may &C
quaint themselves with the details early in the
session. If the home rule bill is ready for pre-
sentation when the legislature meets, the COM
mittee to which it is assigned will have abundant
time to study it's provisions. Committee chair
men cannot reply that they have not had time to
investigate the bill, and it's sponsors will have a
just ground to demand, after a reasonable inter-
VAL that it be reported back to the body for
action.
All these are practical suggestions of man
who has been in the senate long enough to know
the ntrcaces of pushing legislation from the
time of it's introduction to it's final vote in the
chamber.
If we are acquainted with the bill, we will be
able to the questions that will be directed
at us when the measure is in committee hear
ing.
We may expect machine politicians to fight
it's progress through the general assembly. Sim
liar measures have been killed in committees in
years past. Sentiment in Indiana cities favors
the present home rule proposition, but this senti-
ment must be crystallized into action and an alert
citizenship must be ready to thwart attacks.

Begin Work for Home Rule

The interview with Senator McConaha re-
garding home rule for Indiana cities, printed
Yesterday in The Palladium, contains on feature
that should not be overlooked. He wants to as
certain public sentiment on the question and he
wants quick action in order that the proposed
legislation can be drafted into bill for presen-
tation to the Indiana general assembly.
If we remember that unless the Indiana leg
islature acts on the bill at this session. will
have four years more of the old system, it ought
to spur us to action. The primaries will be held
next May and the election will be held in Novem-
Der. If the old regime is to be ended and Indiana
cities given the opportunity to decide on home
rule, the present legislature must initiate the
legislation.
Either a commission or managerial form of
municipal government will be failure, if the bill
providing for either is not drawn scientifically

At the cracking of twig in the
still depths of the Adirondack noun
tainS, Roosevelt turned to see a guIne
coming out of the woods with the
unexpected news that McKinley's con.
dition was worse. Although he has
tened to Buffalo. the president had
died Is hours before the vice president
arrived
The new president requested all the
mambers of the cabinet to remain in
office, and he pledged himself to con.
tinue unchanged the policies of his
predecessor. He did not mean to be
either a Tyler or Johnson. Neither
could he be a Mckinley. He WIS
I Roosevelt. and his administration &c
j came his own.
! The money magnates and the great
corporations had financed Republican
success in the gold and silver cam
paign of 1895, and for four years they
had directed the policies of the party
without question from anyone. Huge
+ combinations. trusts and mergers were
swiftly bringing into the control Of
a small group of men the banks. the
factories, the mines, the forests the
I railroads, the whole economic life d
/ the country.
Theodore Roosevelt owed nothing
to the mon and interests that had been
running the administration and con-
gress by long-distance telephone frOlc
New York. Nor had he any selfish,
personal gain to make by challenging
the powerful invisible government.
The instant popularity he won in the
White House assured his election to
the presidency if he would only keep
quiet and not disturb business"
But he fOrcsaw the time coming
when the people would reassert their
sovereign ascendency and that they
would wreck the Republican party il

it's meeting that fate and to avert a
radical uprising, he proceeded to I'm

Good Evening
BY Roy x. Moulton

("Tm for keeping our little home in
spite of our fine political prospects,
said the wife of the vice president
elect.)
I'm for keeping our little home what
ever else we do;
Further than that have no plans, It's
largely up to YOU;
After next March we must put on
starch and breeze about bit,
You and the boys must make some
noise and dress and act to fit.
Our colors are high but by and by, it
all may go ka-foo,
So I'm for keeping the little home
whatever else we do.
This home is something we made our
selves by working long and hard
Il isn't something a landslide brought
and landed in our yard.
II wasn't voted onto our hands, we
earned it day by day,
Rut the White House comes as the

But the people give and they take
away, and the days of the great

So. I'm for keeping the little home

ed about in his overlooking energy,
discussing men and nations, senate,
house and courts with freedom that
took away the breath of the cautious.
Besides having more callers, Roose-
welt had more correspondents than any
other president, and it is estimated
that he wrote 10000 letters in his
seven and one-half years in the presi-
dency. Hesw also a great traveller,
travelling $4,000 miles and visiting
every state his first term. Wherever
he went he was equally at home, with
a knack of getting in close touch with
the spirits of the crowd.
No other president lived the life of
America so completely as Roosevelt.
He was an easterner in the east, a
westerner in the west, and he was. in
fact, half southern, with two uncles in
the Confederate navy, and a mother
who remained until her death an :'un,
