net income than the actlal net income
reported IN 1919.
This IL due to the fact that the 1890
level of prices for labor and materials is
considerably higher than the average for

MORE EQUIPMENT
NEEDED BY ROADS.
The railroad executives claim that
they need additional equipment which
would cost over 1910. 600 600. for 10000
freight cars, 5000 passenger cars, 1909
baggage cars and 400 engines
an considering the matter Of credit for
such additional equipment, the general
state OF the money market and the stand
ing Of railway securities already out
standing must be borne In mind.
1T is common knowledge that condi-
tions are difficult the whole world over
and will doubtless continue so for some
time, as result Of the world wide
economic and financial disturbance
brought about by the war.
1t is hard TO set large amounts Of
money for new capital purposes, the
price II high. and will apparently con
tinue high for long time
1T seems to us that the imperative
need today is for the commission to de-
eide at once what the carriers need. aud
then TO permit rates 90 as TO meet that
need.
The country must have efficient rail
way service"

Of railroad freight rates was given By

WOMANS EQUALITY
DEMOCRATIC PROBLEM

Does one woman equal three men, or
do the old, old rules Of mathematics ap-
ply in democratic politics as well as
elsewhere?
This is one Of the questions the dem
ocratic party OF Indiana is going to
solve before the end OF the state con-
vention.
Recently at a meeting of the state
committee which. is rapidly becoming
famous 1t was declared that equal repre-
sentation must be given women in the
makeup of the delegation at large from
Indiana to the democratic national con-
ventien.
The average democrat Interpreted this
action as definitely determining that two
Of the delegates and two of the alter
mates would be women and there was
every indication that the rather bother
somel question OF making up this dele
gatid2 had been aimplifed
But the situation II different now.

chairman. and Edward G. Hoffman of
Fl WAYNE, the national committeeman
aud constituted director of Indiana
democracy. have evolved another theory
Of what constitutes equal representa-
ton"
They hold the opinion that what the
committee really meant was that women
were equally qualified to be delegates

tee meant the delegation should be equal

TAGGART To SHOULDER
BURDEN OF DETERMINING

As usual, the democrats of Indiana will
unload the burden Of determination on
Thomas Taggart
Mr. Taggart has not yet expressed him
self on this point, but it Is known that
some time ago he said that he could see
no reason why Miss Julia Landers Of
Indianapolis should not be a passive can
didate for delegate at large.
Miss Landers has been a passive can
didate It is not on record that she ever
asked Ed Hoffman for permission to run
for delegate
Nor Is it a matter Of public knowledge
that Ben BOsse ever told her she could
run.
But there is a suspicion that IL the old
rule OF two and two making four obtains
In Indiana democracy as elsewhere there
will be more than one woman on the In
diana delegation to San Francisco.

no OPPOSITION TO
MARSHALL DELEGATEsHIP.


There WILDE no opposition to Mr..
Marshall as a delegate.
The party in Indiana generally feels
that he will attract national attention
10 the delegation. entertain the national
convention and do no particulGr harIn
beyond ''riling' william ]. Bryan.
As to the other members Of the dele
cation at large there Is some dispute.
Most Of the democrats think II would
be good politics to send at least two
women as delegates and both Alice Fos-
ter McCulloch Of Ft. Wayne and Julia
Landers Of Indianapolis agree wholly
with this view.
Miss Landers. however. asserts that
she is not willing to Pre-empt the seat
that Thomas Taggart ought to occup
and Mrs. McCullOeh says she is going as
a delegate
But all Of this is merely interesting
The real question that viii be deter
mined at this convention is what. II any
thing, the democratic party Of Indiana
stands for.
The answer thereto will be found in
the platform.
It will be an open and militant de-
nunciation Of GOodricAism and a de
mand for everything that Goodrichism
IS not, or II will be another OF those
"safe" platforms, drafted with cunning
for the purpose OF saying nothing and
accomplishing just that.
II the state convention adopts a plat
form that has teeth in it and affords the
disgruntled republicans a chance 20 OK
press their disgust with GOodrichism at
the polls the democrats will carry In
diana this fall
II it does not. then the republicans
viii continue 10 rule in Indiana and the
democrats who oppose anything that
would hurt the feelings Of the repub-
hcans will continue to get the minority
plums which they now regard as more
desirable than a fight for party principle.

DEMOCRACY'S
TIMETO STRIKE
IN STATE NEAR
Convention Must Choose Be
tween No Quarter Fight
or Soft Pedal
FALL VICTORY AT STAKE

The democratic party of Indiana is
going to determine this week whether II
wins Indiana this fall or whether it con-
tinues to be the anvil on which the re-
publican politicians beat out their
products.
Two distinct courses confront the party
and there must be choice at the demo
cratic convention, which opens here
Wednesday.
Democracy may be said today in Indi-
ana to be divided into two camps, the
one hosting the banner bearing mo
quarter as it's inscription, the other
waving a flag whose best symbol would
be the soft pedal of the political piano.
These two factions are going into a
struggle at the convention that will not
only determine the nature Of the cam
paign, but will settle, this early. whether
= the democrats have a chance TO win In
November.
The militant democrats Of Indiana on
whose shoulders rests the only chance
the democratic party has of success in
the state are encounteriug strong oppo-
sition in their attempts to lay out a cam
paign that will be worthy Of the name.
They are opposed by the democrats
who have business Interests in common
with the republicans. who have no stom-
ach for a fight and who desire nothing
80 much as to be regarded as the demo-
cratic party without any necessity for
doing that which is necessary TO main
tain party.
ONE KEYNOTE AMONG
OPENING SPEECHES.
There will be three campaign speakers
and one woman speaker at the opening
Of the democratic state convention and
only one keynote speech.
Vice President Marshall viii get OF a
lot OF sophisms about the constitution,
getting back to democracy and religion
Former Gov. Ralston will discuss the
righteousness of the democratic national
party IN his ewn inimitabIe style. and,
rs usual, bis learned discourse will 90
over the heads Of the most Of his hear
ers.
Claude G. Bowers Of FIT. Wayne will
strip the hide on the Goodrich admin
jstration. nail II to the cabin door as
Gratis an idea of what they must deal
with in event they really want to carry
Indiana.
Bowers was selected to sound a key
note for the Indiana campsign because
Il was well known that neither Of the
senior speakers would do so.
Following the oratory the convention
viii name Carleton B. McCulloch for
governor and select the other members
Of the state ticket
Ft Will also name delegates st large
to the Ssn Francisco convention and
therein it probably viii show some sur
pTises.
Thomas R. Marshall. -8s usual. has hts
lightning rod in the air and hopes that
IN its despair the democratic party viii
select him as a standard bearer.
He knows ths n the selection were
left to Indians democrats be would not
DO selected and he proposes to go to

delegate, in order to insure being able

BIC LOSS FROM
 FOREST FIRES IN CONNECTICUT

A summary of fires reported in
 Connecticut from 191O-1S1s inclusive,
 a complete record of which has been
 kept in the office of the State Forest
 Fire Warden, shows that during the
 decade mentioned 9,S58 fires were re-
 ported. These burned an area of
 417,0O acres and caused a damage
 of $1,50O.00O.
 The-average number of fires yearly
 was SS6, the average area burned yearly, fl, 700 acres and the average
 damage yearly, $150,OA0. For each fire the average area burned was II
 acres and the average damage was $169.
 The 8s5s fires were divided among several causes as follows: Railroads,
 2936; brush burning, 687; fishermen, IT; hunters, 1855; incendiary, i146; general carelessness, 1,182; miscel- laneous, 163; and unknown, 3,572. Railroads caused approximately one | third of the total number of fires Of the remaining 5,ez2 fires, 2,35O
 were reported due to brush burning, general carelessness, hunters, fisher men, incendiaries and miscellaneous
 causes. Manifest1y these 2350 fires were due to negligence by someone. Were it possible to analyze the 3,572 | fires attributed to unknown causes, l probably a large percentage of them | would also, prove to be from neglt- gence.
 Each year a very few persons, 1 through carelessness or neglect start 1 some 500 fires thereby causing a 1 damage of about $1oO,o0O to which l must be added the cost of putting out the fires. The statutes provide for l the punishment of persons who wi | fully or carelessly cause damage by ! fire and the vioIators of the fire laws 1 go unpunished only because of in- 1 difference on the part of the general 1 public, it is claimed.
 l Every individual who frequents the 1 woodland areas during the fire sea- | son, should take all possible precau- l lions and see that others do the same | Be sure that matches and smoking materials are Dead" before they are 1 dropped, cover or put water on all | fires before leaving them, start nc 1 fires without first clearing the site ot i all inf1ammable material, do not start
 fires on windy days, and take any 1 further precautions that circum- | stances require, advise members o1 1 the State F'orester's staff.
 Each spring sees a large number ot
 forest fires, partly because of care 1essness of early picnic parties.
