HELLER, Manager, MARSHALL'S KEYNOTE SPEECH It has been charged against the Democratic party in Indiana that its present candidate for governor was chosen by brewers In order to defeat another candidate desired by the temperance forces. With this charge we have nothing now to do (for those' who made it are accountable to the party and Its candidate, not to us-, except to say that Mr. Marshall's “keynote" address at Richmond last night stamps him as a man of ideals so pure and thought so elevated that such a charge against him should chiefly discredit those who gave it | utterance. If the brewers were and are for Marshall, they are for a good . man. Mr. Marshall's address must delight i the judicious, if for no other reason i than that is so far removed from the 1 conventional compound of bombast, fury and abuse from which the typical political speech Is assembled together. There is a modesty of spirit about it, a devotion to the finest things of life, and especially a clear and charming style which captivates the fancy and enchains the sympathy even when it falls to persuade the intellect. He is too absorbed with the historical imagination not to bring before us for fond recollection and useful admonition the grandeur of old Greece and the glory of old Rome; not to recall the great names and high principles that have adorned our own republic’s splendid history; not to urge upon us all renewed consecration to those ideals of liberty and equality without which popular government must per-: ish from the earth. It seems to us ' that if Mr. Marshall should be elected ; governor, there is not a right thinking or right principled citizen of Indiana , but would rejoice that a man of such fiber and grace of character would sit for four years in the executive office of the state. —Indianapolis Star, Rep. Mrs. S. E. Eddington and son Mr. J B. Eddington, went to Fort Wayne this afternoon for a visit with Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Lichtenwalter of that city.

Stomach troubles are very common in the summer time and you should not only be very careful about what you eat just now, but more than this, you should be careful not to allow your stomach to become disordered, and when the stomach goes wrong take Kodol. This is the best known preparation that is offered to the people today for dyspepsia or indigestion or any stomach trouble. Kodol digests all foods. It is pleasant to take. It is sold here by B. Doolittle. u Nature has provided the stomach with certain natural fluids known as the digestive juices, and it is through these juices that the food we eat is acted upon in such away as to produce the rich, red blood that flows through the veins of our body and thereby makes us strong, healthy and robust, and it is the weakening of these digestive juices that destroys health. It is our own fault if we destroy our own health, and yet it is so easy for any one to put the stomach out of order. When you need to take something take itp romptly, but take something you know is reliable —somethink like Kodol for Dyspepsia and Indigestion. Kodol is pleasant to take, it is reliable and is guaranteed to give relief. It is sold by B. Doolittle.
