torial campaign, of course, with a de-
cided advantage in the fact that in all
close states where Seators are to be
elected the present incumbent is a
Republican. This means that the
Democrats have several chances to
gain Senators, but are in no danger
of losing any. But this advantage is
somewhat Offset by the lack of issues.
Senatorial campaigns, however, are
more or less personal, and issues do
not always count SO much. But the
election of 1928 is looming ahead and
up to this time the Democrats have
made no preparation for it in the way
of issues. Unless they can repair the
situation materially within the next
two years the chances will remain de-
cidedly favorable to the Republicans.
At least this is the general opinion of
nearly all impartial observers.

Once, in the days when tribal virtues were still

criminal but as man privileged by tribal inherit

Lucky FrunCie

Little Francie is back from Paris. She is wear
ing beautiful gown designed by one of the most
famous dressmakers Tomorrow she will wear Diff
ferent one, carefully selected by a maid also inn
gncrted from Paris and in the evening it will be
changed to most attractive blanket of chiffon and
the word blanket is used advsedly for France so it
Happens is dog
The owners of this little black and tan terrier
made trip especially to Paris in order to buy these
gowns for their little pet. They spend $4,000 every
wear for it. and they actually think that they are be-
showing happiness upon this little captive animal.
The chances are that Francie would much prefer
\ to be turned loose in the park, where she might
find some pleasure in playing with other dogs or
chasing birds.
Francie, instead of being really lucky, is smoth-
cred by wealth and too much care.
But what are you going to say of the unhappl-
ness of a man and who are driven to SUCH
desperate expedients to get anything from life?
1t goes without saying that they are rich and
that the money that they spend upon this little dog
does not deprive them of meal or an automobile.
But somewhere along the line, in the getting of
money they missed the real meaning of life and de-
voted themselves and their resources to the PAM
perng of pup.
If it we're really kindness of heart which prompt
ed them to take their pet to Paris for new gown
they would understand that aside from the ensave-
ment of the little animal, the human heart can find
its happiness only in bringing happiness to other
! hearts.
It seems such a waste of effort and even OF emo
ton when a glance through the columns of news
paper might bring to notice girl who attempted
to end her own life because she is jobless, and
would enjoy even of the little ribbons which
Francies maid might tie about the terriers neck at
night.
Or they might wander down to a nearby or
pbanage where babies heir only to misfortune, await
the magical hand of mother love to start them on
the way to happiness and usefulness.

little and whose emotions find no other outlet
than smothering money dumb brute.

On the day set for his death he would appear

And not once, it is said by those who should know,
did condemned Indian fail to appear on the
appointed day.
After Indian territory opened to white men
and made into State, Congress ruled that Federal
courts must supplant the old tribal courts. There
after the erring Indian had to stink to death like
the covering white criminal.
The old glory gone forever The law was
no longer divine. 1t was cheap and tawdry a thing
to be evaded.

FEDERAL AID
FOR SCHOOLS

DR.. Loeb, st. Louis educator,
addressing a gathering Of Indiana
club women, urged Federal aid
for schools. Such assistance is
needed because Of changed condi-
tons, rapid expansion and in
equality of school facilities have
made educational problems ma
tional instead of local, he contends.
No doubt Federal aid would help
backward States improve their
school systems. 1t seems an easy
road to better schools.
And there is ample precedent for
such assistance. Federal aid has
been extended to industry, agricul-
ture, internal improvements, and
especially roads. Ever since it
was established the national Gov
eminent has contributed funds to
the States for this purpose and
that. Why not to schools?
The proposal sounds logical.
However, most States have
shown themselves alive to the
Importance of education, generous
in their support Of schools. and
able to handle their own school
proplems without interference or
aid from Washington. Indiana has
built up an admittedly excellent
public school system by its own
efforts. No State is too poor to
do likewise, if it wants to.
Federal aid has a seductive APP
peal. 1t seems to be getting some
thing for nothing. However. even
the demi gods at Washington do
not possess an Aladdin's lamp
which, rubbed, will natcrializc
money out Of thin air. The funds
they distribute in Federal aid for
any purpose are raised by direct
or indirect taxes on the people. Old
John ]. Citizen is the Santa Claus.
Inasmuch as the money to
finance a Federal school aid
scheme must come from the States
any way, what advantage is there
in carting the money to Washing
ION to be distributed back to the
States by q Federal bureau?

T1OmOYv0zU:S Newspaper

The American newspaper, says Walter E.
Strong publisher of the Chicago Daily News, is now
entering brand new phase
The first period, he observes, was one of pio-
neerng The second one of personal journal
ism"-when the personality of the editor first
and his paper afterward The third saw stupendous
mechanical expansion, while the fourth and last, the
one which we are now entering, will be of
public service
This is a scholarly reading of the times, The
late E. W. Scripps, founder of the ScrippsHoward
chain of newspapers, saw it coming almost half
century ago. In his early twenties he had come to
feel that newspapers much public servant
as street cars or electricity and had no more
right to serve one class Of people to the exclusion
of all others than gas company or railroad
Service the device he nailed to the mast
head of his first newspaper and service it has
been ever since-servce to country and to it's
people.
American journalism, according to Publisher
Strong seems to be catching up with this idea, The
great newspaper of tomorrow he says, must realize
its great responsibility a servant of society and
adapt itself to that service.
BY mechanical expansion Strong not
only the nearmracles which the giant presses and
other equipment of the modern plant are, but the
telephone telegraph, wireless, cable and whatnot
which keep the newspaper of today in instant touch
With the remoteSt corners OF the globe.
These are the things which are impelling honest
newspapers in the direction of public service Public
opinion is coming to be the greatest force in the
world today, particularly in our own country. There
fore what greater service any paper render than
to use it's facilities to keep the public mind
rectIy informed so that when it acts it will do
with clear understanding of what it is doing?
Evidently Strong this quite clearly. Also
he vsualizes the increasing interdependence of the
various peoples of this shrinking world. For at the
conclusion of his study he gives to the foreign
respondent a place, the Importance of which, he
says sit is impossible now even to estimate.

LICENSING
COAL DEALERS

Indianapolis coal dealers will
have to take out city licenses, and
pay fee of $50 per license, if an
ordinance, sponsored by the city
smoke inspector and the Better
Business Bureau, is adopted. The
ordinance will be presented to the
city council at its next session.
The measure also provides that,
when he delivers coal, the dealer
must give the customer a dupli-
cate ticket showing the name,
source, size and quality of the
fuel. All of which is designed TO
protect old Ultimate Consumer
from the Vaccinations of the I'M
scrupulous coal merchant.
Perhaps this bit of legislation is
needed to secure for citizens life,
liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness. Also to bleach our local at
mosphere which suffers from low
grade coal. Certainly there is
nothing revolutionary about the
proposal to license coal dealers.
One can't keep a dog or peddle
hot dogs in the city without buy
ing a city license. And a dozen
other businesses and occupations
are similarly regulated. Selling
licenses, and collecting fees there
for is one of the best things the
municipality does. So why not
license coal dealers and open an
other source of revenue?
The retail coal merchant is sup
posed to be shady individual full
of guile, who will bear watching.
But he isn't as black as his stock
in trade. Few indianapolis coal
dealers have become disgrunting-
ly wealthy. Apparently they do
no more than sell at a fair profit
the grade of fuel the customer
pays for.
How can a license law compel
them to do more?
