DOES THE REPUBLICAN
PARTY DESIRE A PANIC?

There is good ground for the sus-
picion that republican leaders have a
political purpose in their recent predlc-
lions of financial panics and industrial
depression. 1t appears to be more than
a coincidence that they should sinful
taneously be filed with pessimistic fore
bodings of calamity to come. and espe-
cially that they should voice these dole
full prophesles in the course of speeches
tinctured with partisanship.
If there were a sudden recession of
the country's prosperity-if there came
collapse of business, with widespread
unemployment and distress-there might
be some improvement in republican
chances Of success in the presidential
election next autumn. The situation now
affords very little hope for change
from democratic to republican control
in the executive branches of the govern
ment. Though prices are high, wages
are more than keeping pace; there Is
great activity in every line of commerce
and industry; the banks are teeemlng
with the peoples savings; the prospects
are for a continuance Of these prosper
Gus conditions.
Republican jeremiads can hardly pro-
duce a psychology that will impair con-
fidence and dislocate business. Repub-
lican statements of every description
whether promises or predictions-are re-
ceived only at heavy discount. If,
however, these forecasts of disaster are
designed to check the country's pros
perity and enhance the republican OPP
portunities at the expense of the nation,
they represent a kind and degree of UNI
scrupulousness almost without precedent
even In the history of the republican
party.
Speaker Gillett of the house of repre-
sentatives, Majority Leader M0nden and
Representative Robert Luce of Massa-
chusetts are among the republican
prophets Of panic Representative Fess
of Ohio, and of the republican congress
slonal campaign, is an oracle in the
same tenor, If not in the same words.
The moral of all their dismal utterances
is that ere the evil they foretell comes
upon the land the republicans and not
the democrats should be in tpower TO
fend us from destruction.
It so happens that the only untoward
factor in the whole financial, CONNER
ciaI and industrial situation today Is
that contributed by the republican sen
ate, which has steadfastly. opposed and

commerce and an increase Of American

Sees Centennial
Years Bio Event

What the Indianapolis centen-
NAL celebration In June will mean
to indianapolis:
BY JOHN n. HOLIDAY,
Chairman of the General Centen-
nlaI Committee.
The indianapolis centennial
celebration will easily be the big
gest event of the year in Indian
apolis. The entire city should be
interested in this observance and
the entire city will be benefited
by the further spirit Of civic
pride it will arouse. Indianapolis
has a right to be proud of its
achievements during its first 100
years and every organization in
the city should cooperate to make
the celebration a fitting one.

Man and Dog

Somebody asks why a man likes dogs
better than other animals.
What others could he choose to chum
with? One can not fly with birds, or
swim with fishes, or Craze and chew the
cud with sheep and cattle. Nor can
he root with pigs, or roost with fowl,
or leap from bOugh to bough with SOUR
rels. The larger beasts of prey are
dangerous. Mice and rats are too pro-
life and too destructive to be encOur
aged to live at large near human habi-
tations, and their subterranean mode of
life can not be shared by man. Polecats
and porcupines are out Of the question.
Monkeys, with their tree-dwelling In
stincts, can not be taught clearly habits.
And so it goes.
But the dog! He is OF a size to share
mans interests, and neither large
enough to trample him down nor small
enough to live In inaccessible hooks and
crannies Like the cat and cave-dwelling
creatures, he is clearly, as monkeys and
grass-eaflng creatures are not. He can
share mans home and bed. He eats
the same food He goes about by day
hut is alert by night. Like man, he
loves to play and roam and hunt, and
he makes a brave and reliable fighter.
best OF ar ne IS hlInseH companion
able, afTectionate and devoted. No lamb
ever loved Mary as a good dog loves a
half-decent master. For, like his COUSIN,
the wolf, he comes of q social stock,
though ages ago, before the beginning
Of human history, man took him from
the pack to make of him friend and
helper for himself.
The common life Of these two species
Is a splendid example OF what biologists
call ''symbiosis"; and the fact that #
can be found amongst native tribes In
every quarter or the globe Is one argu-
ment I'm favor Of the theory that men
lived together once and then became dis
persed-taking their dogs with them,
even TO far-off Australia.

Supreme Court Will Likely Pass on Coal
 Seizure Injunction

Montgomery, August 16.-(Special = Before the supreme court of Alabama is called to pass upon the application of the Zimmern Coal Company for a permanent injunction preventing the Southern and Mobile and Ohio rail- roads from confiscating further ship ments of coal consigned to it, Chief Justice John c. Anderson of the su preme court, who granted temporary injunction to the coal company last week, today stated that the petition for permanent injunction will be con- sitiered in the Mobile circuit court. Each party to the contest may appeal to the supreme court from the findings of the lower court.
 Regardless of the decision in Mobile county, an appeal is expected to the su- preme court because of the importance of the question involved. The rail roads contend that they have the right to take shipments of coal intended for other persons in order that fuel may be provided with which to continue the operation of transportation facilities.

SCALE COMMITTEE
 STILL DEAD[0CKED
Operators Refuse Miners Demands and Miners Re
 feet Counter Proposal
By Asseelatsd Prsss

Cleveland, August 16.-Members of the joint scale committee of the cen tral competitive bituminous coal field. were deadlocked tonight after the op- orators had refused the miners de- mands for increased wages and the miners, in turn. had rejected counter proposal of the operators. A joint sub committee, appointed to consider the situation, adjourned after three hour session without reaching any agreement.
 The miners on Saturday presented a demand for a g a day increase for day and month laborers and a ten cent a ton increase for pick and ma chine mining.
 In their reply today the operators offered to correct the seeming inequal- ity of the award of the bituminous coal commission last March, under which the pick mining rate was advanced ,27 per cent over the then existing contract and the day and monthly men were given an advance of from 35 to 72 cents  a day
 The operators. however. refused to consider any other demands made by the miners. including the ten cents per ton asked for pick and macEine mining
 On receipt of the operators' proposa the miners promptly rejected 1t and a subcommittee of the joint scale com mittee was appointed to try and react a settlement.
 After adjournment members of thu subcommittee said there was little tt indicate any immediate settlement o, the matter.
 It became known today the fedora government is watching the meeting here, local representative of the de, rartment of justice admitting that hs was watching the conference develop, ments regarding the possibility of an, strike action by the miners.

 Much damage also was done to the tracks of the street railway company Fifty cars were put out of commission by water ir the motors.
