—“THIS IS THE YEAR”—
“THIS is not a state court,” said Anderson in calling a halt
on an attorney’s “bunk.” Thereby defining a wide difference.
THE CONVENTION being over the public service commission makes
a noise like it might begin to function for a few weeks prior to the
election.
AFTER THE NEWS'S reniarkable exhibition of poor guessing re
garding the republican nominee, sane readers will not be stampeded by
it* French Lick dope on the democratic race.
THE STATE HIGHWAYS, that the law says should Jae designated
before April 20, 1920, are to be designated Wednesday, providing the gov
ernor does not believe it best to wait until after election.
A FALLEN TREE blocked the College avenue and Broad Ripple lines
four hours recently. Had it been two trees it is safe to presume that the
tracks would have rusted before the obstructions were removed.
A WASHINGTON DISPATCH says Senator Harding wishes to go
before the public on “a strictly literal interpretation of the treaty plank
in the Chicago platform" —as if such anjnterpretation were possible!
The Campaign of Hate
Boiled down to its most concentrated essence the republican national
platform contains only one predominant idea —hatred of President Wilson
and his administration.
Carefully considered, the Lodge keynote speech yields no other extract.
Therefore it is most fitting that Senator Harding, a brilliant disciple
of the teachings of hate, should lead the republican party in the con
tinuation of the program of hate that was mapped out many months ago
by the astute Will Hays and gotten well under way before the party
assembled in Chicago.
The antidote for this campaign of poisonous hatred of the Wilson
achievements must be prepared at the democratic convention in San
Francisco.
Just as the Chicago convention was controlled by hatred, the San
Francisco gathering must be controlled by reason.
None should have a voice who has been inoculated by the republican
anti-Wilson virus. None should lead who can not see his way clear to
accept all that which is so viciously denounced by the senatorlally con
trolled republican party.
Just as the republicans have pinned thpir faith to a destructive policy
of hatred, so must the democrats rest their all in & constructive campaign
of reason.
The Versailles' treaty must be indorsed at San Francisco, the Wilson
administration must be regarded, as it, in truth, has been remarkable for
its fidelity to humanity as a whole.
What Republicans Approve
It might not be amiss for the republicans of Indiana to pause a mo
ment in their struggle for '‘harmony” and think over the things they have
approved in their indorsement of the administration of James P. Goodrich,
governor. Their state convention has placed them on record as approving:
1. The working of state convicts in a mine owned by a company that
gave Goodrich stock "for services.”
2. The sale by Goodrich et-al. to the sanitary district of Indianapolis
of a garbage plant for $175,000 although J. T. Moorman, part owner, de
clared under oath the plant was not worth the cost of junking it.
3. The building of cement highways at a cost of more than $5,000 a
mile in excess of what better roads cost Marion county.
4. The assessment for taxation of public utilities in which Goodrich
Is interested at considerably less than these utilities are valued for rate
making purposes.
5. The imposition of horizontal increases in tax valuations on tax
payers who returned their property at full cash value.
6. The subjection to the state tax board’s whims of every bond Issue
and tax rate in any taxing unit
7. The remodeling of the statehouse at a cost of more than $5,000
a room on th/ “cost plus” basis which the state board of accounts found
was so wasteful.
8. The letting of coal contracts to the business associates and the
members of the family of James P. Goodrich.
9. The paroling of a prisoner sent to prison for life on a murder
charge to act as the chauffeur of the governor of the state.
10. The release from the penal institutions of more men than any
three governors had released.
11. The retention in office of a state board of charities which “white
washed” the Marion county jail wh*en, it was revealed by the federal court,
the prisoners were being beaten, burned, starved and robbed In poker
games.
12. centralization in the hands of the governor of such great
power that his approval is necessary before a state official may buy a lead
pencil.
These are only a few of things that the great republican party grants
its approval.
Te Gods! What a howl would have followed if a democrat had been
guilty of only one of them l
Real and Sham Reformers
Real reforming is unpleasant, sometimes dangerous, fighting. It sel
dom produces any profit for the reformer. It seldom returns him anything
that gratifies him. He may get more abuse than praise. His work makes
Interested, powerful enemies and indifferent friends. The enemies never
hesitate to destroy him. The friends generally hesitate to help him.
In these words the Chicago Tribune gives the answer to the woeful
lack of beneficial reform movements of which we have heard so much in
Indiana.
Herein it explains why it not infrequently happens that the “reformers"
of Indianapolis can find much to criticise in the local government of Terre
Haute, or Muncie or Evansville and nothing undesirable in the city gov
ernment of Indianapolis.
% This is the explanation of why some papers have many staff corre
spondents, all intent on finding scandals in government—elsewhere than
nekr their seat of publication, for, as the Tribune continues:
Real reforming deals with the essentials of government as they affect
community life. Sham reforming deals with the superficialities of life. It
is easy work and pleasant to the reformer. It gratifies his sense of im
portance. It appeals to the populace. The publicity it offers is never
dangerous and frequently profitable.
We used to have men who were willing to fight. We now have reform
ers who prefer to pose. Real vice is an ugly customer to tackle. The man
who does tackle it may expect in his prospects anything from a brickbat
to a framed case against his morals. He may be shot, or he may have a
wanton woman with a borrowed child calling “Papa" sent after him. Vice
fights back and it is dangerous.
It is safe to inveigh against short skirts, cigaret smoking women, bare
legs on the stage, improper dances, prize fighting, prize fight films, beer
drinking, one-piece bathing suits, various amusements, etc. There is an
audience ready to applaud. Newspapers are ready to publish. If a re
former says that humanity is going to the devil via the bathing beach, the
dance hall, or the moving picture theater, the consequences of the attack
are prominent, pleasant and futile.
If a reformer attacks a politician or a successful criminal, the con
sequences may be startling. When a reformer digs down into the funda
mentals he interests nobody but the vicious, but he interests the vicious ex
ceedingly. „
When a reformer attacks a book, a play, a movie, a piece of clothing,
the use of cosmetics or nicotine, he is on safe ground. That may be why
ninety-nine will be vociferous about superficialities where one will be in
earnest about realities.
Reform is safe and inspiring •when it deals with the lapse of a respecta
ble person. If a man’s weakness has involved him in trouble, superficial
reform has a trihmph. The man is helpless. His offense rri ay have
touched lightly the solidity of community welfare, but he is gone. If a
man’s strength in vice is ripping up community foundations, he is safe and
reforming is dangerous.
The easier way is well lighted. It gets to potting but prin£*hnd flesh
lights. The other way is dangerous, but unless men will take it a community
is badly off.
POLLY OUTVAMPS CLEOPATRA
In the Merry Comedy *Polly With a Past J
Have you met Polly Shannon, a min
ister’s daughter, who has-a “past?”
You are bound to meet her this week
and when you do you will discover that
Polly Is Blanche Yurka at her most de
lightful and tantalizing self.
The faithful, who were at the Murat
last night to see the first presentation of
“Polly With a Past” by the Stuart
Walker players. Indicated by their ap
plause that Mr. Walker Is presenting the
real goods this week.
This delicious comedy is filled with
the things that make healthful and
keen entertainment and is played in a
light and charming manner by every
player of the company.
From a standpoint of sheer stage
beauty in presenting the story, Mr.
Walker has set a very high standard in
this comedy as the two sets used are of
fine taste, simply but strikingly done as
the proper tone Is given to the st eijg by
the clever effects.
The set for the second act breathes of
refinement and Indicates the great out
of-doors although It is an Interior set—a
very fine example of modern stage set
ting.
The story, in a few words, concerns
Polly Shannon, an Irish girl and the
daughter of a small town minister, who
arrives in New York and becomes a maid
in the apartments of two bachelors where"
she worked pending the saving of enough
money to cultivate her voice.
Clay Collum and Harry Richardson
are the bachelors who hire Polly, not
knowing she is a minister’s daughter,
as a maid.
Then Rex Van Zile is introduced and
ho is in love with Myrtle Davis, who
would rather save drunkards and reform
fallen men than have Rex make Jove
to her.
So Poliy thought it would be a great
scheme to bavo someone act as a siren,
come into Rex’s life and so force Myrtle
to think it is her Christian duty to
save Rax.
Polly takes off her white cap and
apron, impersonates a French vamplrt
with such stunning effect that Rex falls
head over heels in love with her, proves
to his mother and uncle that Polly is
not a real vamp but the sweet and lovely
daughter of a minister. N
Then the curtain descends while Polly
and Rex are exchanging kisses, whlcn
Indicates with a bang that all is well.
Tolly Is a difficult role, and Blanche
Turks makes Polly the clever, tantaliz
ing “wicked" thing which the plot de
mands.
She is Immense In the second act,
when she meets the mother of Hex,'
vamps the men, scandalizes the women
and so makes the. name of Blanche Yurka
secure in the heart of every patron ot
the stock company.
Stuart Walker plays the role of Rex
in a manner which Is in keeping with
the speed of the comedy and gives un
doubtedly one of the best Impersona
tions of the entire company.
Another real acted part is Rtliee. a
man who hesitates to ride on the water
wagon, and as played by John WrC,\
it is the writer’s opinion that this man
Wray has the real stuff In him
Christabel Hunter as Myrtle Davts
reads her lines so every one in the house
can hear them, and her first appearance 1
this season was very successful.
McKay Morris and Thomas Kelly as ;
the two conspirators and bachelor 1
friends gave satisfying performances, !
and the work of Elisabeth Patterson,;
Judith Lowry, Lael % Davis, Aldrich Bow- j
ker, George Sornneg and Oscar Cralk
contributed much to the success of the
evening.
Opinion—“ Polly With a Past." as done
by the Walker players, Is 100 per cent
entertainment.

KEITH’B.
Drams, the kind that makes one sit
up in the seat and watch "very movo
rs the characters, reigns supreme at
Keith’a this week In ons of the best !
dramatic playlets seen at local vaude
ville houses in many moons.
"The Lincoln Highwayman.” as it is
called, is a cleverly acted piece; the!
characters ao> natural, although pe--
liaps a trifle over-zealous In their ef
forts too create the proper atmosphere;
und the climax Is all that could be de
sired.
Easily the best one-act playlet of the
summer season and savors of blg-tln,e
stuff.

WHEN A GIRL MARRIES
A New Serial of Young Married Life
By ANN LISLE.
CHAPTER LXIV.
Sunday was o riot of blue sties end
golden sunlight and soft breezes that
whispered gay little Invitations to come
o n and play. After breakfast my hus
band hurried olf to keep his appointment
with a man up state, and Neal and I
fell upon the dishes and washed and
dried them and gossiped with a vim.
"Say, Babbsle, at the rate we’re going
we won’t be done when that husband of
yours gets back. Say, he’a a winner!
He can hare me all right If he’ll alwaya
treat me as white as be did this morn
ing. Lady Evelyn says it won’t hurl
for me to kind of follow his lead once
in a while. She thinks he’s all right,
too,” said Neal, turning mattresses with
brisk vigor.
A minute later he added.
“I’ve a date with—her today. Say.
sposin’ you finish your room and I do
mine and we ree who beata. Otherwise
we’ll never get through.’’
“Righto, “Nealle! Only it’s no fair
leaving dust In corners,” I agreed light
heartedly. Hadn’t my young brother
called my husband a winner? It
uiy boy a liked each other. If we had our
own happy little family group. If Jlra
found work—then Jim and I would come
dose, close; we would be woven Into
the very pattern of each other’s dally
lives, and I would never again have the
pang of feeling the ‘‘outsider.” Hla old
life would slip away. Into a background
of unimportant memory, and his real
Lfe would date from the hour he had
found me.
I dreamed ns I worked, and little
snatches of song rose to my lips. 1
wonder If every woman longs as I do
to be all-in-all to the man she loves?
I must mean everything to my Jim—as
he does to me.
Quickly and deftly my happy fingers
completed their tasks.
“I win, Neal,” I cried, actually btpplty

STUART WALKER AND CHRISTABEL
HUNTER.
Thought we wouM run a picture of
Stuart Walker and Miss Christabel Hun
ter, who made their first acting appear
ances this season at the Murat last night
in "Polly With a Past.”
Both received a hearty welcome and
there were many curtain calls and bows
for every member of the company.
Creation” Is good, but h has nothing
new.
Several of Ferry’s feats r a contor
tionist are excellent and lose none ox

the fact they have been done tuoiicands

of the bill with a clever line of talk, and
the feminine member of the pair Is nim
ble of foot and witty and she Is sbly
supported
Yule and Richards get a good band
with, their song and dance offering.
With the exception of the feature of
the bill Sandy Shaw, Scotch comedian,
was the star.
Sandy bn* the brogue and the looks
and the voice—what more does one need?

LYRIC.
With “The Whirl of Mirth.” the Lyric
•npplles a musical and mirthful selection
that has a big appeal to the audience.
“The Whirl of Mirth" la a succession of
songs and dances given by the six mem
bers of the company.
There is a special set of scenery and
appropriate musle that makes a fanciful
background for the funsters.
One of the women members of the com
pany has a voice that Reaches high
hepplng to the door of the living room.
There stood Neal over by the big,
carved Florentine chest. Its lid was
thrown back, and In my brother’s hands
was the shimmering blue and green robe
Tom Mason hrd given me. I dashed/
across the room and tried to snatch the
lustrous thing from Neal’s hands. But
Neal turned, twisted It from my grasp
and swung the silk high above his head
where It winked at me evilly.
“Tush, tush, Barbara Anne, why this
unnecessary haste?” questioned my
brotoher In a teasing voice.
“Olve It to me! Give it to me V \
cried.
‘Come and take It,” laughed Neal,
sliding across the floor and brandishing
the flashing robe above his head.
"Don’t tease Neal give it to me!”
I cried la exasperation that was almost
tearful.
Then his teasing look turned suddenly
to an earnest one:
"What do you want to do with this—
thingumabob, Babbsle?”
"I want to hide It away!”
"Hide It! From whom?”
“From myself, Neal.”
"Sure It’s not from your husband?"
"Neal! What do you mean?”
"I want to know what you moan, BabV
ste- having all this heavy, embroidered
atuff made Into some sort of a drees
and hidden away,” said my brother,
sternly.
And as I faced the sturdy determina
tion in his young eyes I know- with re
lief that at last I was going to tell the
story of that “haunted” robe! And when !
I had told him how Tom Mason had
made me a gift an unwelcome one hut
still a gift—of that priceless robe, my
brother was fairly furious. He stormed
out that I must send It back at once,
and that he - d fix any end who dare/

The Right Thing
at the Right Time
By MARY MARSHALL 8. DCFFU
V. J
How many married couples that you
know seem to feel that It Is the privilege
of married folk to address each other
with aii abruptness aud rudeness that
would be offensive and quite unendurable
In the Intercourse of persons not bound
together with the bond of matrimony?
“Will you l> still! I’m telling this
story.” Jerks out a wife to her husband
when she Is Interrupted by her spouse
while attempting to tell one of her fa
vorite anecdotes to some new friends.
"There you go—that’s the woman of
it!" mutters a husband when his wife
Interrupts him to spoil bis best story by
telling the point before he has properly
led up to It.
“But you are so terribly long-winded,"
she comes back with equal politeness.
“I knew you were boring every one to
death and that you’d take at least a half
hour more leading up to the point, so
I thought I’d cut you short."
And there are men who feeLthat It Is
their particular privilege to criticise their
wives' cooking before outsiders, although
those very men would resent it emphati
cally If a guest should make the same
criticism.
"Molly, I think you need anew coffee
pot,” the husband will say when they
are entertaining guests at dinner. “This
coffee la dreadfully tinny; I don't know
why it Is a woman never seems to know
bow to make good coffee.”
The fact that usually these criticisms
are given good-humoredly and that often
they do not seem to glvg offense, does
not really make them any more excus
able.
The fact remains that It Is downright
bad manners to be any less polite to your
husband or your wife thnn you would be
to your neighbor's husband or your
neighbor’s wife,
WHAT READERS ASK.
“Should one watt until every one at
table is served before beginning?”
X believe the English custom is to be
gin, and this Is followed by many Amer
icans. However, In a small family it Is
more polite to wait. i
The Idea la that If the table is Very
large or If refreshments are being passed
tu a great many yersons it Is often dif
ficult to get things served all around
with great promptne .—Copyright, 1920.
