Hartford City, Ind., May 27—Hartford City is to have a new traffic ordinance soon, which will set out the regulations governing the new electric light crossing signals. Under the terms of the ordinance, which passed first reading at the meeting of the city council last evening, Walnut street, a part of the state highway, will be a through street with the exception of the Washington street crossing, where Washington street is to be the through street. This is done in order that the fire department, when making a run from the station to the east, will have the right of way. It is believed that the new regulations throughout the city will lessen the danger of automobile collisions.
ORVALD. SAMPSON (Continued from Page One.) tive in the Indepedent Order of Red Men. He is thirty-eight years of age. The democrats of Shelby county are unqualifiedly back of Mr. Sampson’s candidacy. He has been an active democrat, he is a good business man, he in every way is competent for the position, and he is in the prime of life, old enough to make an active campaign should the democratic state convention place him on the ticket. It would be an honor to Shelby county to have a state official. No better county exists thap our own Shelby, and the democracy of this county not only would appreciate the honor of having one of its sons on the ticket, but it would be a help to the state ticket. —Shelbyville Daily Democrat. o The General Federation of Women’s Clubs is in session at Atlantic City, N. J., for their biennial convention. The Indiana federation will be well represented.

The supreme court refused Monday to interfere with the practice of white communities in agreeing to negroes from buying their property. The case in hand was that of a fashionable Washington street where the owners had agreed among themselves never to permit a negro to occupy, use, lease or purchase any of their property.
