HENDRICKS. The “scare” campaign that the Re--1 publicans were going to start has been gcing on for some time. They are I scared to death. Congressman Adair is speaking every night. In the list of his dates next . ! week is Decatur, Oct. 14; Portland. . ' Oct. 15. and Muncie. Oct 16. Uncle I Nate is not in good voice and it is feared that he will not be able to speak only by proxy. «. . “ The deficit in the United States revenues for September was $4,583,971 as against >3.909,128 for August. It would that a tariff that has the > effect of putting more money ino the public treasury and less grab into the . coffers of the monopolists would be welcomed by the people of this coun- i try.—South Bend Times i The Hos. Champ Clark, congressman I from Missouri, and in all probability 1 the next speaker of the lower house of j 1
cc egress. will make an address at the court room tomorrow. Friday evening. Mr. Clark is one among the nation’s best craters and will both instruct and delight those who hear him. Some of the fortunate ones will remember him at St. Louis, where he acted as permanent chairman of the Democratic national convention in 1904. Decatur and Adams county is most fortunate in having so brilliant a speaker with them for one evening. Mr. Hanly announced at Crawfordsville this week that he was a SIO,OOO governor and that he had saved the state hundreds of thousands of dollars. He said the people would make a grevious mistake to choose a cheap man for governor, and rather gave out the impression that he himself was without any doubt the biggest and best man that had ever filled the governor s chair. Really J. Frank is getting chesty. It is quite refreshing to hear a man telling of his own greatness
rather than leaving it to the people to pass upon.—Columbia City Post, Pref. Charles W. Eliot, president of Harvard university, in a recent communication to the Reform league of New York, delivered a telling blow to the high tariff system under which the country is now suffering, and by which the many are being robbed fw the benefit of the favored few. Prof. Eliot's letter is a stinging rebuke to the system which builds up monopolies and increases the cost of products to the American consumer and at the same time enables the trusts created by the tariff to sell their goods cheaper in foreign markets than at home. His statements are particularly interesting in view of the fact, not only that he is one of the
leading educators and foremost economic scholars in the country, but he is also at the head of the institution of which President Roosevelt is a graduate, a position which it. has been said President Roosevelt would like to occupy at some future time. All his life Tax Title Hawkins has worked on the theory that money is the ruling power, not only in busi-. ness but in politics. He Is acting upon that theory now. It may hire agents to malign his opponent and it may capture a few votes on election day, but it will never appeal to the militant force of the better element of the eighth district, who. regardless of party, are demanding that the man they vote for must be honest honorable in his dealings, and a man who possesses the ability to represent them in congress. Do they know of Mr. Hawkins possessing a single one of these qualifications? He has not dared to go out over the district and attempt to defend his position realizing that if he were to do so he would only expose his own incompetency. hence he has chosen the paid
agent, back door policy, relying up- ! on mud-slinging tactics and his great wealth to carry him through.— j Portland Sun. DEMOCRATS DECISIVE VICTORY Republicans Claims for Georgia Proven Absurb. Atlanta, Ga.. Oct. B.—A general election was held throughout the state yesterday. The only contest was be-1 tween Joseph Brown, Democrat, and Yancey Carter. Independent, for gov- i ernor.

Carter was supported by the opposition, republicans, populists and independents. Bryan carried the state in 1896 by 34,141 and in 1900 by 46,665. o CELEBRATE HISTORICAL EVENT Decatur K. of C.

Information having reached this office that in some parts of the state the requirements of the feeding stuff law are not understood, it is deemed advisable to issue this circular of information. 1. The Feeding Stuff Law covers all materials used for the feeding of domestic animals except hay. straw, whole seeds and the unmixed meals made directly from the entire grains of wheat, rye, barley, oats. Indian corn, buckwheat, broom corn, wheat flours and other flours. All materials except these specifically < mentioned as being exempt must be registered and tagged when offered or exposed for sale in this state. 2. The law contains no provision which prevents any farmer or consumer frem mixing and having ground materials of his own production in any

quantity and proportion he may desire, for his own use. If after grinding, such mixtures are offered or exposed for sale they must, be registered and tagged. For example, a farmer or consumer may mix corn, oats, rye, barley and buckwheat and take it to the mill and have It ground, and such feed does net have to be tagged providing the feed returned to the consumer is made from the materials he took to the mill to have ground. 3. Any one in the state may purchase cereals separately, mix them in any preportion he desirea and have them ground for pay for his own use 'without registering and tagging. When ! such materials are purchased already ground and mixed, or are offered or exposed fcr sale after mixing and grinding, a tag must be given the purchaser with each 100 lb. or fraction.
■ 4. If a consumer takes wheat or other cereals to a mill and has it ground for pay or tell, receiving in return the byproducts such as wheat bran, middlings. etc:, from the cereals which he took to the mill, such byproducts do not have to be tagged If, however, the consumer takes his wheat or other cereals to the mill -and sells it at so much per bushel, taking in exchange so many pounds of wheat bran, middlings or ether byproducts from the common bin. such byproducts must be registered and tagged. 1 5. Feed shipped outside the state doe s not have to be tagged with the Indiana tag, but is subject to the laws of the state in which it is effered for i sale. | From the preceding it will be seen ' that the Feeding Stuff Law contains no provisions which interfere with the right of the consumer to have grain of his own production ground as he may desire, and there is nothing in the law which should in any way cause a discontinuation of the practice in some localities of far iers or millers grinding the grain raised by the consumer fcr the consumer's own use in such quantities and mixtures as he may desire. It should be remembered in this connection that in order not to come under the law the feed returned to the consumer must be from the grain cr materials which he brought to the mill and not from that brought in by his neighbor. If the grinding is done for toll and the toll is effered for sale, it must be properly registered and tagged. I If after the consumer has had his materials ground into feed he desires tc offer some of it for sale, the portion st offered must be registered and tagged. W. J. Jones, Jr., State Chemist.
