Lots of Gossip
Men who have been going to con-
ventions for years, and observing
them, have. never seen convention
where there was so much gossip, so
much titter-tattle. so much prying into
personal and private affairs and ex-
plotting them.
For example three of the men prom
inently named were condemned as
having participated in divorce cases,
always to their discredit, of course.
and entirely without knowledge Of the
facts, the most malicious story is cir
culated.
Two Of them were gossiped about as
dIunkards. and so on. Anonymous at
lacks were circulated in printed form
Anonymous letters were written. The
whole atmosphere, was an atmosphere
Of malicious gossip, titter-tattle of self
righteousness on the part of those
who circulated the stories of a phari-
saism that was as disgusting as it was
widespread.
It was neighborhood gossip gone
wild, and developed into national Cos
sip. These are two phases of this
convention that will be considered
when reviewing its proceedings and
considering its results.

given full political liberty through the
ratification Of the suffrage amendment
by another state, they and their chill
dren would be found battling for the
cause he championed, a great shout
went surging up to the vaulted dome
of the roof in an endless sea Of sound.
It urged into action a Texas dele
gate, who pulled the state standard
from the floor, and drove through
the aisle to the platform. A score
Of state standards joined to form a
hedge along the platform front. A
battle was fought around the Califor-
MIA standard and 1t was smashed to
fragments.
A woman delegate from California
finally was carried UP to the speakers
stand waving fIantically a tattered
ramnant OF the state emblem.
Another woman, dressed in white,
and with d drum slung to her side,
was lifted 10 the speakers table, and
this was the only sign Of q pre-ar-
ranged effort at a demonstration.
Tears Sparkle Like Jewels.
MI Bryan came again and again to
the edge OF the stand to wave to the
crowd below. His face was shining,
and the spotlights made the tears
that rolled slowly over the deep fur
rows of his face sparkle like jewels.
He was deeply moved and showed 1t,
but his eyes went always toward that
silent sitting. group Of delegates which
yielded no jot to the, tide OF feeling
that swept down from the galleries.
1t took desperate pounding Of the
gavel to quiet the storm. 1t died down
only to swell up again.
Finally, after a threat that the gal
leries would be cleared, Bainbridge
Colby secretary Of state, rose to an
swer for the administration on the
league issue.
Cool, unhurried in speech, Presi-
Dent Wilson's spokesman struck at
once the emotional qualities in the ap-
peal Mr.. Bryan had made
He dismissed the great effort OF the
Nebraskan ON prohibition almost with
out notice, approaching his own topic
with lightness of touch that brought
laughter at times and with consum-
mate skill sought to turn aside the
rush of feeling Mr.. Bryan had counted
upon.
He also was accorded a reception
and a demonstration, this time with
the noise and cheering supported by
band and organ, but the crisis was
over. 1t hardly needed the effort of
Senator Glass as platform committee
chairman to assure the full and com
plete victory for the administration
forces and the committee draft Of the
platform which followed.
Crowd Expects Defeat
Even the crowd in the galleries ap-
peared to expect it, for despite the
tribute it had paid Mr.. Bryan, a
chuCkle Of amusement and spAtter OF
handclapping greeted the volley of
tremendous noes which sent the Bryan
plank to defeat,
The vote on the dry plank was over
whelming, a roll call having been de-
manded by Mr.. Bryan and 1t went
down with almost three to one against
it In the succeeding votes on his pro-
posals the thunder Of the negative al
most blotted from memory the fact
that a scattering feeble murmur Of
ayes had preceded it in every case.

COMMISSION TO HEAR
PLEA FOR RATE RISE
IN THE NEAR FUTURE

The Indiana Public Utilities COM
mission will conduct hearings on the
petition of the city OF Richmond for
an increase in the lighting and power
rates Of the Richmond Municipal cleo
trio plant, either next week or the
week following.
This information was received by
city officials Saturday. 1t is probable
the hearings will be held in Indianapol-
Is.
CITY officials are confident that the
commission will recognize the neces-
sity OF increasing electric rates in
Richmond and 1t is believed the COM
mission will approve the proposed new
rate schedule in time to make them
operative by the latter part Of this
month and effective on and after
July l.
The delay on the part of the Rich
mond city council in acting upon the
pending ordinance authorizing $275,-
600 bond issue for the installation OF
5000 k. W. turbine at the municipal
plant, and for other plant improve
ments has resulted in some sharp
criticism being directed at the council
by members Of the board of public
works and other city officials.
Cost to City is $4,000.
Critics OF councils point to the fact
that the delay in acting on this ordin-
ance was unwarranted for the reason
that it is a generally recognized fact
that the capacity Of the city plant
must be increased. If the industrial
needs of the city are to be provided
for; that council by postponing the
inevitable. so they assert, has already
cost the city several thousand dollars
for the reason that a turbine which
would have cost 100000 a few weeks
ago is now quoted at over 1925, 900.
The bond ordinance comes up for
final reading, Monday evening, pro-
viding council decides to conduct a
meeting on a public holiday.

GREENCASTLE, Ind, July 3.-The
Indiana state penal farm near this

in this county. Every industry is work

to the farm This year indications
point to the paying OF good per cent
on the sum invested for the benefit
of the state.
Through scientific application of
farming principles, the Indiana state
penal farm of some 1900 acres, is a
good example of what can be done
with wornout soil. Ten years ago a
large part Of the state farm was bar

a profit to the state.

Here's Consolation! You
May Haze A Rose Cold,
Instead of Hay Fever

Have you hay fever, or a rose cold ?
Many persons mistake rose colds
for hay fever at this time of the
year, according to physicians.
Hay fever begins August Is. Rose
colds attack susceptible persons when
roses bloom.
Rose cold Is attributed to inhaling
rose pollen. It Is characterized by ir.
rtation Of nasal passages and eyes.
Sneezing is natures remedy for throw
ing off the irritant. 1t Is like mild
hay fever.
Excellent results have been obtain.
ed through vaccine treatment. Re-
search workers have determined one s
susceptibility to several different pol.
lens by gradual process OF elimina-
ton. 1t is possible to sensitize pa
tients so they will not develop rose
fever or hay fever Hay fever treat
ment requires 10 weeks.
Hay fever became prevalent during
the civil war. 1t is caused by the pol
len OF any number of plants and
grasses known to be carried five or
six miles by the wind.
Ninety-nine persons out of every
100 have this pollen in their nasal
passage, some doctors say.
Some persons are victims Of hay
fever from childhood. Many develop
the disease later, some at so years
Of age.
Hay fever statistics are vague, but
members Of the Hay Fever associa
ton. a national organization of suffer.
ers. estimates that there are at least
100000 victims in the United States.
The sneezing season averages AZ days.

Don't Starch Ice Cream,
Is Warning of Inspectors

Inspectors representing the Indiana
state board Of health have been direct
ed by I. L. Miller, state food and drug
commissioner. to be on the lookout for
ice cream containing starch.
The examination Of samples recent
ly taken by the department disclosed
the unlawful presence of starch, which
has been traced to compound used
generally throughout the state, Mr..
Miller says, and which Is sold to
manufacturers as a means Of saving
the cost of ice cream ingredients.
Warnings have been issued in the
cases apprehended, and these will be
followed by prosecutions for subse-
quent offense.
The elimination. of the practice Of
restaurant proprietors pouring off the
cream from milk served to patrons is
the object of another special effort on
the part Of the food and drug inspec-
tors.
It is reported that in some Of the
larger cities of the state only skinned
milk is sold for beverage purposes.
The law stipulates that milk shall
contain 81 per cent Of butter fat.
Continued investigation of the char
acter of soda water, known as pop,
by inspectors representing the food
and drug division of the Indiana state
board of health, indicates an almost
universal adherence TO the use. Of
sugar, according to Miller.
While the price of sugar was high
est, a few weeks ago. some samples of
pop were taken up and found to
contain sacCharin, an adulterant that
is forbidden in Indiana.

Owing to accidents the voyage was
