Q SOME FACTS ABOUT THE HORSE. A colt unbroken is worth little more than nothing; improperly broken, it is worth still less. It Is harder to break a horse that nas been tampered with by unskilled hands than one never touched by the hand of man. Often it Is impossible to rid an individual of faults thrust upon it, when a youngster, by an educator who has not had the necessary experience. Many times horses have thus

been spoiled for life. P. C. Masterson, the horse trainer and educator, is a man thoroughly experienced and equipped for this undertaking. Horses placed in his charge can be placed there with the fullest confidence that they will receive the careful and skillful attention, made possible by years of experience. Now .Is the time to have colts broken. Don’t wait till warm weather, as you can now get them handled with more attention. Masterson is also a developer of speeC, and has met with splendid success in this line. In fact, this is his main business, of which the breaking and educating of colts is a very important branch. Experience has taught Masterson that horses trained for speed should be started early in the year. When a horse goes a “good corking mile’’ every muscle and fibre in its make-up is put to the most tense exertion. For this much power of lung and muscle is required. To get this power a good supply of systematic jogging is unavoidably necessary. During the racing season many good prospects are turned out on pasture because they were put to the test of their speed and endurance before thay had sufficient preparation. The horse should be built up in the winter in order to develop speed in the spring. Any attempt to get speed without muscle will be met by disaster. The subject best fitted for hard campaigining is the prospect w’ell wintered. Masterson is well equipped for such wintering. Training barn at Steele’s park. Address P. C. Masterson, Decatur, Ind.

ENDORSE I MARSHALL I Democratic State Committee in Session at Indianapolis This Afternoon. BIG CROWD THERE I 1 Democrats From All Over the State Gather for First Political Meeting. I j Indianapolis, Ind, Nov. 28—(Special to Daily Democrat) —The meeting | today of the democratic state committee brought to this city scores of enthusiastic democrats from every part of the state. Every county was represented. Prominent among the throng i were United States Senators Shively and Kern and Governor Marshall. Congressmen from practically every district, state officials, county officers, and. members of the rank and file from throughout the state mingled with the committeemen and talked over party prospects. It was a jubilant throng. The crow’d filled the lobby of the Denison hotel and, from every source, good news was heard. It was the general opinion that party success was never so bright and that the party itself was never in better condition for a campaign. A wide-spread victory in 1912, not only in Indiana, but in the nation at large, was predicted on all sides. Good fellowship abounded , and party feeling ran high. The committee had been called together for the purpose of setting the date for the district conventions, at which members of the new state central committee are to be selected ■ Prior to the meeting it was generally understood that the district conventions would be held the last week in December and that the new state committee would meet in Indianapolis to i reorganize on January Bth. ■ The committee went into session at - 2 o’clock. One of the first acts of ! the committee was to adopt the fol-

lowing resolutions unanimously: "The democratic state committee of Indiana, in obedience to the unanimous wish of the united and victorious democracy of this commonwealth, presents to the democrats of the United States, as a candidate for the presidency, Governor Thomas R. Mar-1 shall. “In thus presenting our distinguished governor, we are not acting upon his suggestion or with his knowledge. We admire the dignified position he has taken with reference to the great I honor of leading his party, as a candidate for the highest office in the world, and we approve of his persistent refusal to personally urge his claim, either directly or indirectly or I by indirection. “If nominated, the honor must come to him unsought, as the will of his party freely and fairly expressed. It must come to him wholly by reason of his splendid public record, his wise statesmanship, his nearness to the people and his understanding of their needs, his high character and engaging personality, as well as his politi cal strength and availibillty. “Governor Marshall is a democrat; one who believes in his party and in its principles. He is in sympathy with the prevailing progressive ideas of government, but above all else, he holds fast to the fundamentals of the democratic faith—that popular rights must be safeguarded and privilege in every form must be combated. “We congratulate the democrats of the nation on the number and exalted character of the men suggested and urged for this nomination, and bee to give assurance that whoever may , be the democratic candidate, he will, under the leadership of Governor Marshall, receive the electoral vote of Indiana.’’ — John McKean returned to his liome” at noon after being here this morning attending to some business affairs, which required his attention during the day. Mrs. Sarah Middleton, wife of George Middleton, jr, was adjudged of 1 unsound mind yesterday by an insanity commission, composed of Justice of the Peace Henry Grabner and Drs. McArdle, Thimler and John Harrod. — Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette. Mrs. ■ Middleton formerly resided here and i has many relatives here. • Nineteen dollars’ worth of new i Wear-Ever brand aluminum for sale. 25 per cent off, as owner wishes to E sell out.
