UNCLE NATE THE BOOTLEG CANDIDATE The bootleg methods of your “Un-, cle Nate” are the limit. Think of askI ing the electorate of the largest and , most intelligent district in the United , State to support his candidacy for con- I gress. his only recommendation be- 1 ing blackmail and attempts to charge i dishonesty to his minority opponent. 1 It is the most disgraceful spectacle 1 ever presented to the voters of Indiana 1 and we doubt whether there is another 1 man living who is so mentally and 1 morally small, as to follow the de- <

grading methods adopted and in use i by “Uncle Nate” and his paid experts. ■ Experts, who for the money would I make any am t of a report about any * living person. Experts who would i swear away the life of a human being. I providing “there was enough in it.” Nate Hawkins pays these men to make reports and swear to reports about the public record of John Adair. He does it too as the candidate of the Republican party, the nomination being given him by George Cromer, and it has been openly charged and never denied that the consideration was fifi teen thousand dollars. Think of it , Cromer placing the Republican nomj matron for congress upon the auction block. Nate Hawkins bids the limit and gets the high honor, while Cromer walks off with the swag. And after getting the nomination and with it a majority vote of more than five thousand, “Uncle Nate” employs experts. Not experts to boost himself, but experts to make figures lie. Experts to make John Adair look dishonest and unpopular with the voters of the eighth district. Wiiat is the offense against John Adair? Why. he is the Democratic candidate for the same office to which your “Uncle Nate” aspires. He is popular, in good standing, elected once to congress and made a great record. “Un- ■ cle Jfate’ wants to go to congress and try to fill the place so ably represented by John Adair. Malice is in his heart and in order to accomplish this purpose he is besmirching the good name of Jchn Adair. The voters of the eighth district are wise. They believe in uprightness, honesty and integrity. If there is no other reason on earth for John Adair's election, the Hawkin's method and manner cf opposition is sufficient. The voters of the eighth district should now and forever place their disapproval upon this shameful attack. They should say to “Uncle Nate" that such methods are forever barred, and any one who tries to gain public favo» by discrediting another shall himself forfeit their good will. THE DRIFT TOWARD BRYAN After spending a couple of days in Ohio, Walter Wellman has come to the conclusion that the Buckeye state is one of the mest doubtful states in the union. Wellman finds that the laboring men are drifting to Bryan in spots and that the spots are large and numerous. There may be anywhere from 40,000 to 60,000 sudh changes and there may be more of them. It is Impossible to get at the figures accurately. Taft is out on a tour of the state this week trying to break up the drift to Bryan, but it is probable that he will only make a bad matter worse. The state has twenty-three electoral votes and they will help out Bryan in nice shape. It is not alone in Ohio that the labor vote is tending Bryanward, but all over the country. The republicans

e are o unting pn gains among the i. farmers, but there are changes there 1 also. The farmers are not to be fool- >• ed this year. They are getting ales--1 son just now in the price of wool, , sheep, hogs, hay and clover seed. ’ They know the republican party has j not been making good in the last t year. The panic and the subsequent s hard times in the cities are bound to ■ reduce the prices of farm products. ■ and the farmers know this, and they 1 know’ that the republican party was r; in power and could not prevent such -a condition from conring upon the . country. i Hear Congressman Adair at the : court room tonight. It is the cnly ■ opportunity the voters and others of I this eity will have to hear a candii date fcr congress speak. “Uncle . Nate” is making his campaign by ex- • perts. He will not face a public audience with his character blackening system of soliciting the suffrage of the eighth district voters. Congressman Adair will tell you of his accomplishments as a congressman. He will reason with you and be honest, open and above board. It is not hard to conclude which of the two should be trusted. MOVING PICTURES How They Are Made an 4 the Expense of Securing Them A FEW SECRETS Telling How the Men Get Their Legs Cut Off by Automobiles, Etc. Moving pictures, which arc shewn in the local theaters and ■which are so entertaining to the thousands of people here are causing much speculation as to how the records are made. Many guesses are made by those in the atdience each time a show is given. The matter of making the original film is expensive and elaborate, even for the simplest scenes. At present i the most acceptable of the fiims ate the comic and the most common of these are what are called "chasers.” This is a scene in which a runaway horse or thief is pursued by a crowd. The street is selected and a trained man goes around the neighborhood to hire a crowd to engage in the chase. Pathe of Paris, keeps his own company for tfie purpose, but most American manufacturers find it too expensive. The instructions cf the agent to the crowd are very simple. “Just keep your eye on me and try to catch me. That’s all.” In the crowd are generally several women, fat, tall and short.and some cripples, if possible. Thus always half a dozen fall as there is not one woman in ten who can run a block in a crowd of this sort without going under. “But we never tell them that we want them to fall,” explained the agent. “If we do we get a stagey fall and that spoils the effect.” The man who has his legs cut off by an automobile is standing in two holes in the ground with two dummy legs in front of him. The great train robbery film cost $19,000 to produce, but it netted in rent cf duplicates more than any legitimate play has ever made in this country. The site selection was a lonely spot in Colorado. The picture company chartered a train of thirty coaches and place 1,000 people aboard. The company was paid also to stop traffic on the track while the play was

being enacted. An engine on the parallel track carried the moving picture machine which photographed the two robbers who climbed over the coal truck and held up the engineer and fireman. The fireman was shot down and thrown out of the cab. Os course as the fireman dropped at the spot a dummy was submitted to be thrown out. After the stopping of the train came the flight through the woods and across the open country, a camera being stationed ahead of the robber band and the chase starting by a gunshot signal. 1> — Typewriting neatly and promptly executed.
