ISSUED BY THE DEMOCRATIC PRESS BUREAU. Special Daily Letter: Indianapolis, Ind., Mar. 12—The near approach of the Democratic and I Republican State contention, the former only two and the latter only three weeks away, has aroused great interest among the adherents of both parties. Not in years has there, been such an awakening among the Democratic masses as there is now. From every part of the state the word ’ comes that they are getting ready for 1 the campaign with enthusiasm and 1 confidence they have not felt in a long time. On the other hand the Republicans are admittedly doubtful and many can be found who concede that their party cannot win in November. The fact that the Democratic convention is to be held before the Republican gathering this year is due to the ■ aggressive spirit that fills the party. 1 Tn asking the state committee to fix ; the earlier date the members of the | Democratic Editorial association voic-1 ed the feeling of the rank and file in ' their respective committees. The feeling was to go in and win and not to , stand back and lose The Republican I party for various reasons is on the ; defensive. It will be so throughout j the campaign, and it was not only I good politics but good sense for the ■ Democrats to force the fighting in the state. This is the opinion of everybody who understands the situation. The attempt of one of the papers here, The News, which is generally recognized as the mouthpiece of Fairbanks and the Republican state machine —to kick up a dust about the possible attitude of the Democrats toward the local option question is looked upon as a piece of partisan insolence. For a long time the News has been trying to divert attention from the close alliance that has existed .'hetween the Republican fend the liquor interests and its present work is along the same line, and is for the same purpose. No sensible Democrat will be fooled and it is regarded as certain that when the platform Is made it will be in harmony with the overwhelming sentiment of the party in the state. The open rupture in the “town meeting" here Tuesday night between Governor Hanly and Mayor Bokwalter shows how near the surface Republican suspicion of each other is. The meeting was called to order by citizens to protest against the granting of a new franchise giving higher rates to one of the telephone companies. Governor Hanly was present and practically accused Bookwaiter of "working in the dark” with all that implies. The mayor resented the charge and said' some plain things about the governor. And the war has just begun. That pretentious Republican organization, the Columbia Club, of this city has just discovered that its bar receipts or 1907 fell off $4,000 as compared with the previous year. This is the club it will be recalled that John Artman (himself a Republican) deGlared to be the most notorious blind I tiger in Indiana. As this charge was not made until after the year 1907 was ended, a good many people will wonder about how big the club's bar receipts hav e been. A loss of $4,000 would indicate that the drinking has been exceedingly heavy. _ THE R YST A L OPEN TONIGHT MOTION PICTURES.

OLD FOLKS HOME (Continued from page 2.3 Warren by April 10, the time stipulated. he would remove the require ment that the home be located at that place and would extend the offer to include Bluffton or some other city that could raise the amount.

The movement is a creditable one and many should hear the minister. o SURPRISED HIM. F. A. Estes.

The stress and strain of the strenuous life in both city and country tends toward stomach troubles. Five people suffer today where one did ten years ago with sick headache, dizziness, flatulency, distress after eating, specks before the eyes, bloating, nerousnes, sleeplessness and the many other symptoms of indigestion. All who are suffering wth stomach troubles, and that means at least two out of three in Decatur and other towns, should use Mi-o-na stomach tablets. Nothing else is as safe, yet effective; nothing else can b» so thoroughly relied upon to relieve all tr»uI’es from indigestion as Mi-o-na. Fo reliable is Mi-o-na in its curative act.on that Holthouse Drug Co., with every 50-cent box they- sell, give a guarantee to refund the money unless the remedy cures.
