At least Maria can't say we didn't give her a square break on this hus- band hunting idea that has come over her. And no matter what happens she's got to remember that she wished it on herself.
 According to vital statistics on human nature Maria ought to get 413 answers They will likely run something like this:

CHICAGO, Dec. 13.-United States Senator Samuel M. Ralston, of Indiana, who withdrew his name from the demo- cratic national convention in New York last July at time when he appeared jar in the lead for the Presidential nomination, in a public statement here today called upon democrats to "pull themselves together, marshal their forces" and carry on.
 Senator, Ralston came to the city to speak before the annual banquet of the Indiana society of Chicago. He called for new leadership in the ranks of demo- cracy. Y g" . GAS to the future of the democratic party he said, s"I have no doubt. It will live. E.
 Party Will Live
 ''It will live, not because of many of it's present so-called lenders but in spite of them. If they were all to meet and unitedly resolve that the party Of Jefferson, of Jackson, of Cleveland and of Wilson should cease to be, their resolution would add strength and hope to that party.
 T can see that the Democratic party can be crippled from within, but it can not be killed, even from within.
 When the rule of democracy fails in this country chaos in the affair of gov crnment will, in my judgment, soon prevail everywhere; and it is my sincere belief that the life-giving force of American democracy has its source in the basic principles of the Democratic party.

 Republicans have not been slow in telling democrats the course they should pursue in view of the outcome of the recent election. It should be understood that democrats will neither approve nor block legislation merely because it is
