THE SEEDS OF THE HOUR The question of more homes in De-'; eatur is being discussed in away that results should follow. Our people are . beginning to see that further delay is dangerous, and if we mistake not sev- 1 era. new structures will soon begin to soar skyward. Thev will not reach the stage of occupancy too soon, as the demand is growing a: tie pace that < kills. The cry is an earnest, one. and the situation « critical. Those who ‘ can begin the erection of- cd tene- • ment houses will be the first to secure good renters ar a remunerative rsntal. It is no hysterical cry for something not needed. but is a call for. hemes for those who will comprise : Greater Decatur. Several new man- I ufacturing enterprises wC! quite soon] be located, and they will all need booses—a number of them at that —| for their employees. There would be ' no risk it building one hundred new . houses in Decatur This demand must ■ be met and that at once. In the meantime any private family j that will board one or more men. wia ; pleas- telephone that fact to this office. THE TRUTH OF H STORY. Occasionally the Cincinnati Engair-I er remembers that it is commonly I classed as a I- n jcratir paper and; that it still has —and wants to retain —a good many Dent -atic readers. At• such times th- Eaquirer puts out a political truth that is worth while The Milwaukee Sentinel < Rep after saying that Mr Bryan thinks that the iHtpertant ’ra, _n s cnng a candidate' is what a man stands for, asks: “How 1..305T a man wiw stands fc-r free silver rad government ownership T" la answer to this jaesncn the ' Enquirer says' “These objections to Mr. Bryan may j not be so hard u dispose of as they • eu.erac-a.ly seem. The number of; protnient dead and alive; who hr.' “ teen silver men. makes a long roll J-. tn Sherman was a stiver i taa and the author of the silver pur-I chase act. One of the most ruggedj performances of William McKinley was to stand guard over an Onio Reput dean ccnvention to keep it from. iLscreditrag stiver. Judge Staa.ey Matthews made a speech m the senate advocating the payment of the United States bends in silver doLars —the same stiver dollar we have today. The waoie Republican party would be for the free cottage of si.ver bow had it not been for the discovery and development of gold mines. Mr. Bryan is not a free silver mra now He has said as much himself. As to government ownership, he really seems to be no more radical than President Roosevelt's recent speech at the Jamestown Senator Foraker made the commencement address at a negro college in Ohio last week. He took pains to make hizn.se * appear as the specta. champion of the HMk maa. He u>.d them to "stand up for their rights and ’ make everybody eise stand up for them..' The newspaper account of fits speech said that he aroused the negroes almost to frenzy and that

when he mentioned the name of William H. Taft There followed a chorus of low snar.ing growls from the men and high staccato shrieks from the women interspersed with peals of mocking laughier" As there are about 40.-'".iG negro voces in Ohio (ail Republican ■ it seems that Foraker is in a position. to make trouble for Tait and ether Republican enemies. But! then, he may stir up the whites in sueh a manner that they will Sock [the other way. STUNG ’EM GOOD Continued from page 1.) will play again tomorrow at Bluffton where we fully expect to repeat the dose, although it may not be white wash. That Decatur has the fastest ball ream was fully demonstrated at several stages yesterday and the Bluff ! on natives were farced to sit up and -ake notice, and could not help but admire the beys' fighting under De- ; catur colors.

That Uy Alberts is the real article i j can be vouched for by every fan in . Decatur. Louie Boyd, the south paw. lasted but four and a half innings, he being f t reed to take refuge under the bench. 1 While Boyd lasted, the hits came fast; and furious. — Every member of the team secured | - hit in yesterday s contest except j Lindy” and Churubusco and they hit i ; the baS hard and often, but always | , at some one. Buras. Weber and Pierce were the * .yandy boys with the stick, they each securing two hits and baaed ar a five | utndred clip.

Guess they have a owe mar hitting team Captain Pfefferie robbed Linderbeck :f a nice hit yesterday when he tore jack into right field and saved a short ■ 3y ball. It was a pretty piece of work. Alberts, in conneetioti with pttching a nice game secured a nice two base hit up against the center field fence. Cy can certainly wield the big stick some.

FOR PURE MILK (Ooatinne* from Page L) existing when the attempt was made to farm a strong central government. ; in which the states should be subor i dinated to the central authority.
