Entered at the poatofflce at Decatur, Indiana, as second-class mail matter An organization completing the necessary details for the securing of a modern fire apparatus in Decatur will be made within a few days. The plans have all been worked out and ■now comes the time for really doing something toward securing the funds. The boys behind this movement will see that it does not fall down Governor Marshall will deliver an address at the cornerstone laying of the new Auburn court house on Thursday of this week. Other splendid speakers have been secured and the occasion promises to be “a live one. ’ The governor will proceed from there to Petoskey for a month’s vacation from the arduous duties of his office. When the democrats took control of j state affairs— January—they found the treasury in a bankrupt condition. Republicans are now howling about the bankrupt condition of the state and are charging it to a democratic administration less than seven months old. It requires some nerve for them to make these charges, but they have the nerve all right. It requires some time for an administration to get rid of the obligations of its predecessor and that is what the democrats in the state house are attempting to do. Republican papers would have their readers believe that the democrats have been in control ever since Governor Marshall took office in 1909. but for two years thereafter the state house was filled with republicans, and they only gave way to democrats a little more than six months ago. When Harty left office he was calling on county treasurers all over the state to make advance contributions to the state fund to enable him to meet current expenses and the democrats have had no opportunity to remedy this state of affairs since.—Columbia City Post.
