Peacock Helps Him.

YEP. George Diffenbaugh today Is
I fairly close to being the smooth
est piece of golf machinery
among the mid-Atlantic pros, even
though his stature physically hasn't
gained a fraction of an inch. His
solfng stature has shot up until
nowadays he is fairly close to Al
Houghton as the leader among the
Maryland professional golfers. How
come? Well, it all happened because
George has found time to play and
practice a little bit. And possibly
because of Roger Peacock. Perhaps
the little matter of pride is mixed up
in it, too, for no pro wants to be
licked by an amateur, and Peacock
can lick George if George doesn't hit
his best stride. So he is on his toes
all the time to keep ahead of the
rampaging Roger Today George
holds the professional record for the
Columbia course-a 81 shot two years
ago. Last year he finished second
to Al Houghton in the Maryland
State championship. 1885? It may
be a Difenbaugh year. The tiny
man has all the equipment.

A WOMAN'S VIEWPOINT
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON

A T this time of year, activity which almost
L n amounts to riot goes on in house. It's the
Lord and Master making ready for the Hunt.
Days of painful preparation required. We
have buy the licenses the tax stamps, the timed
meats, the odd-looking garments with pockets, the
belts for Shells the high boots of rubber and leather
the caps the goggles and the gloves. This year we
even had to get the guns plugged to a three-shen
limit in order to conform with the newest law, de-
signed to keep both the duck and the hope of the
hunter alive
Once ready to start on the annual enterprise,
strange transformation comes my favorite
Ferguson From the customary non conforming
male who grows at carrying small parcel three
blocks from the grocery store, the hunter will ap-
pear before the family laden with clothing, amnu-
milton and Implements much in the manner Of
prospector's burro, The livelong day he pods over
the countryside up hill and down, carrying his bur-
dren patiently and making no more moan than
caravan camel.
He has natural dislike fer rising before 7:3O
any day. yet he's up at 3 a. m. during the shooting
season, and greets the dawn with song.
Although he's the type who mutters curses when
dragged to lectures concerts other places where
he sit still for while, he will crouchfor hours
in blind, rigid as statue, while his nose slowly
freezes and his body grows stiff in the icy wind
For one who insists upon his comforts at home,
his behavior is amazing for no weather is too foul,
no landscape dreary, physical ordeal too cruel
for him to endure with what appears to be enjoy
ment.
I am told by other women that all hunter hus-
bands display the same inconsistencies. But what
I'd like to know is this-why will the man who waits
for hours on a duck go into rage when he has to
wait 10 minutes on a wife?

GAS COMPANY CRITICISED
FOR ATTITUDE

BY H. w. Daacke
When the municipality took over
the Citizens Gas Co., we as citizens
and patrons, had every reason TO
believe that the new setup, in spite
of some of the peculiarities of the
process of obtaining same, would at
least be an improvement.
But my recent experience bellies
that belief. On Nov. IL, received
a notice of delinquency that was
dated the 9th instant, and on Nov.
Ia a representative of the gas COM
pany called and stated his inten-
ton of cutting off my gas supply.
This in spite of the fact that all
my gas bills, excepting the current
bill, with discount date of Nov. 10,
1885, we're paid and I held receipts
to that extent.
The writer believes that one of
the greatest assets of any success
full business is the goodwill of the
patrons of that business, and that
the City of Indianapolis is not large
enough to sacrifice that goodwill
by permitting such errors to creep
in, even occasionally.
Stimulating the sale of electric
stoves. and appliances to take the
place of gas is not going to solve
the problems of disposition of the
heavy burden assumed by the city in
its acquisition of the gas plant.

THE TWO-CENT STAMP

d EP. LOUIS LUDLOW of Indiana thinks the Ad-
ministraton should hail the arrival of better
times by restoring 2-cent postage.
At the last session of Congress he introduced a
bill to that end, but it was halted in committee when
Postmaster General James Farley protested
The Postoffice Department contends that to
abandon the Scent rate would cost it S10OO0OOO0 a
year, but Mr. Ludlow is unconvnced. He is now in
position to press the matter, for he has been pro-
NOTED TO the Craftsmanship of the House subcommit-
tee on Postoffice and Treasury expenditures He has
on the PoStoffce budget.
These hearings" he said, will develop in detail
what the actual effect would be on revenues if the
2-cent stamp restored.
Il have letters from numerous business concerns
which say they have had to abandon the postal
service for circulars and the like because of the
Scent rate"

SENTENCING THEMSELVES?

IT'S to be war, the utilities have decided United
Gas Improvement Co. with all the prestige
and of the Morgan interests back of it. will
not only exercise its right to challenge the holding
company act in the courts but win defy the United
States government while awaiting a decision. Its
lead is almost certain to be followed by its lesser
brethren.
For the next three years the holding company act
provides nothing but regulation. Regulation the
utilities said pously when the act was pending was
perfectly all right. They welcomed it. An they
objected to the death sentence" But refusal
to register while the courts are passing on the act
can only mean that the utilities weren't sincere
about regulation and that they will fight to the
death even the mildest attempts to safeguard the
public interest against piratical profit taking.
A sentence of economic death may indeed be the
outcome of the fight. If so, it will be because the
holding companies reject the reasonable, lenent
provisions of the new law, law which permits them
to dispose slowly and advantageousy of their
properties.
The holding company act, because of this stub
bornness, may prove TO be sort of last gesture of
grace toward the utilities Public patience has worn
increasingly thin utilities have defeated one at

PROSPERITY, BY G.. o. P!

CHAIRMAN FLETCHER of the Republican Ma
~ tional Committee has appointed Is big indus
trialists and corporation lawyers to raise a G. O. P
war chest for the 1886 campaign.
Most of them" Mr. Fletcher said have never
before participated actively in politics.
That may be true, but we seem to remember hav-
ing of their names the front pages
before. There is for instance, the chest chair
man, Mr. William B. Bell of New York, whose Amer
lean Cyanamid Co. tried to grab control of Muscle
Shoals n the Hoover Administration but frus-
trated by Senator Norris
And there are Charles Francis Adams of Boston
and Silas H. Strawn of Chicago the former Cab
met member and the latter adviser of the Hoover
Administration, both of whose appeared on
the famous House of Morgan preferred lists.
And there is Ernest T Weir, last heard of in the
Weirton Steel Co. collective bargaining case.
There are others less well remembered, but all
we'll known in circles of finance and industry
whose interests the Roosevelt Administration has
not husbanded IS tendery as did other Administra-
tons in the good old days.
They are outstanding men of achievement
vitality concerned over the welfare of the country"
said Mr.. Fletcher.
THEY believe in a government of laws, not of
men," said Mr.. Fletcher. He didn't say what
they thought of the of tear gas and bayonets
to dsperse the peaceabe assemblage of the bonus
army nor of Mr. Hoovers declaring a war debt mora
forum !rst and getting the consent Of Congress
later
They believe in preserving for the younger and
future generations the same opportunities for adj
vancement which they themselves enjoyed" said Mr..
Fletcher. He didn't bother to recall the opportuni-
ties" that knocked at the doors Of the high school
and college graduating classes of $780, 81 and 32.
They believe . there must be both recovery
of basic industrial activity and revival of agri-
cultural income the basis of plenty-not on the
basis of scarcity" said Mr.. Fletcher. He didn't
oncile that belief" with the decade of agricultural
depression and the final collapse of both agriculture
and industry under Republican rule.
DUT let nothing we have said about these gentle
~ men, their lack of dsinterestedness of their
beliefs be interpreted meaning that we discount
their ability chest committeeman. On the
contrary, We believe that Mr. Fletcher has done
superb Job of finding men who know where and how
to get the sinews of political warfare.
Some commentators, notice, predict they will
do the job as we'll in the days of Mark
Hanna We think that is belittling forecast. Mark

WAKE UP, REPUBLICANS,
WRITER PLEADS

BY L. J, F.
The ministers that had the cour-
age and backbone to write TO the
President surely should be COM
mended. They have expressed the
sentiment of millions of true Chris
tianS.
The President, as father, should
reprimand his sons and keep them
before the public as model men, not
law breakers.
The President might have done
lot of good that I don't know
much about, but he sure has made
lot of mistakes also. Slaughter
ing pigs with millions hungry was
certainly wrong.
Where are the Republicans? They
always had a good man before, why
not find a good one now and get
this mess cleaned up before it goes
too far? Wake up, Republicans.
Why don't Republicans vote Re
publican instead of Democratic.
May be they have enough now and
will go back to their party.

MATERNITY DEATH RATE

certainly is not being performed it should be-
His comment that wards of the Florence Critten-

Naturally the community can not improve the
situation at once; but through the parent teacher
associations and other organizations it start
forms. Education would help much as the doctor
pointed out.

employment and onto relief rolls.
This condition will continue to get
worse and worse because the num-
Der and the kind of labor saving
machinery will increase and engulf
every line of industry even into the
domestic life.
Therefore, the cutting out of the
relief or to even reduce it will
be out of the question. Will you
DIRECTORS let those people that have
not the means to pay their way
starve to death? Do you think that
they will docilely submit to starva-
ton? I sure would not submit to it
if I were in their place! I would
take a gun first.
The best way out would be to
cut out the profit motive and CON-
petition. Produce for human use
and consumption and pay for it
with your share of the work in ratio
to the amount you use of the goods.
