It does seem as if the suggestion of regulation comes with bad grace from the trolley company because it is sim- | ply a competitor and the bill which makes it compuisory on the owner of a car to furnish a $3,000 bond before he can into the jitney does not look just rizht on the face of In the first the jitney | should be lonied upon as a purely | | business g0 place tailed information it it it { should be viewed as any other business and should not come under or- seems as | enterpris the dinanc te law but rather a local 1t should be taxed as a bus- been determined ine and has | that owing to the pecu | the be | for each car as for an express team but it should as it work a license should issued or perhaps a hack | be made a purely local matter and | should be manuged in conformity with [ local rules and regulations.

Editor Herald—May I take up a small space of vour valuable paper in regard to the management of the Russwin Lyceum. Having been a steady patron since the stock com- pany came, would like to ask why children are not allowed at matinees as T and many others always under- stood a matinee was for women and children. Having been turned away with a child of five y of age and well behaved and after purchasing her ticket one afternoon last week, would like to know why a child of three years was admitted after I had been turned aw This can be proven and can give the name of the pers Is this the kind of patronage fered by the Lyccum management? It | might be expected from some other theaters in town. Why don’t they advertise ‘‘no children admitted.” It's time enough to put them out after they have caused a disturbance. T. J. Lynch stated ‘“because it's a cal comedy,” well if my money good enough for a musical comedy it isn’t good enough for the cheaper plays where there is a very poor house, then the management would be glad enough to sell me as many tickets as I want.

(Washington Star.) Vice-president Marshall affords h party much comfort. His popularity at home is undiminished, and he is booked for re-nomination. He will supply whatever strength the demo- cratic ticket may show in Indiana next year. Without him Mr, Wilson would be weak there. On the republican side there is =0 much hope candidates are developing. Lightnimg rods are shooting up in every direction. The republican ex- clamation is, “Next vear will be our vear.” And the adjuration follows, “Get ready!” The main point is to meet the nom- ination of M nd the re publicans claim that the'only effective way will be to choose an Indiana man for elther first or second place on the national ticket.
