Lew Ellingham Is ftn county citizen He is your friend and his record as secretary of state during the i»ast two years will bear any scrutiny you care to give it. He should have your support and that of your neighbor. We believe that Adams county should give him the largest vote ever given any man on any ticket. Ex Senator Beveridge is still traveling and still shouting pecnliai !y-word-ed phrases at thosewl o listen to him. He has dropped "Mary of the ineclad cottage,” and is now talking about "fighting and blood and death,” and a few other popular subjects. As a vaudeville star he would be a great success no doubt, but it is hardly likely that the voters will fall for his kind a man fit to fill the high position of governor of Indiana. There is no good reason why you should hesitate to register on October 7th, if you haven't done so. We believe that every legal voter in Adams county wants to vote and that he is willing to go to some inconveni ence that the ballot box may be purified. It is right and just ard no one should complain when a law is made only for good reasons. Help get the entire vote of Adams county registered on October 7th. No party in Indiana ever presented a cleaner, more capable man for the high office of governor, than is Samuel Raltson, the democratic nominee for this year. He is a resident of Lebanon, and is a splendid Christian gentleman, a lawyer whose ability is known and unquestioned over the entire state and he would be a governor of and for all the people, From a position as a laborer in a mine he has risen to the high position he now holds and he is most deserving of your support. He would be a governor whom anybody could approach and every qualification makes him the logical man for whom to vote in November. Who is going to believe the regular organization when it declares that it is opposed to special privilege? Who takes it seriously when it points with pride to its earnest enactment to curtail monopoly? Does any one doubt that for seven and one-half years the leader of the progressive party was in power in this country? Can anyone put his finger upon a single effort made by him to curb the monopolistic tendency which was then rampant? Both the standpat and progressive

Bluffton find * eft this tickets for *U“ion morning, it is •’U4. , Cramer called ou tSnerfff Durkin this morning and was advised to hold the money until Smith came to get it. Mr. Cramer states, in connection with the affair, that he wants the public to know that he will not stand good for any debts which his wife may contract. Mrs. Cramer it seems has been quite successful in the gaining and breaking of hearts in her short life, as she is but twenty-four years of age. She was Miss Stella Reynolds before her marriage and is a daughter of Albert Reynolds of near this city. She was married in 1907 to Mr. Cramer, and they have had one child, now deceased. Very soon after their wedding a young man from lowa made his appearance here. He had been corresponding with Mil’s Reynolds and intended to marry her. in fact claimed that he had sent her money with which to buy the wedding garments and showed letters substantiating the statement, even showing a little slip of the wedding dress which was sent to him as a sample of the fr ock which she would wear when the ceremony was to take place. When he arrived here, however, he found i that his intended bride had been married to another, to Mr. Cramer, and he was obliged to leave without her. PUBLIC SALE.

Hale heme, was quietly married this morning at 10 o'clock at the Hale home to Miss Lydia Gumser, a young lady of Holland, a daughter of August Gumser, of that city. Rev. Karl Thompson officiated and was assisted by the Rev. J. O. Hochstedler of Bobo, a few friends witnessing the wedding. It had been originally planned to have the wedding at Holland, but Miss Gumser, who has been visiting in Parkersburg, Va., stopped off here Monday enroute home, and it was decided to have .the. ceremony take place here. The couple left this afternoon at 3 o’clock for Fort Wayne, and will leave probably tomorrow for Holland, where they will make their home. A splendid time was in store Sunday afternoon and evening when Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Lengerich entertained a number of young people at their beautiful country home at dinner and supper. A long table in the dining room laden with all the good things of the season was the feature of the day. The afternoon and evening was spent in playing games and music. The party included Herbert Steigmeyer, Leo Lengerich, Frank Brown, Eugene and John Kintz, Ju', ius Brite, William Bernard, Joseph and John Geels, Clem and Julius Heideman, Charles Bentz and Bernard Voors of Fort Wayne: Belle Bernard, Agnes Rumschlag, Gertrude Geels, Bertha Kintz, Lucy Colchin and Loretta aiid Dorothy Reiling of Fort Wayne.

At the annual business meeting of the German Reformed Christian Endeavorers at the home of Miss Della Scllemeyer Monday evening, the election of officers for the ensuing year resulted as follows: President, Miss Della Sellemeyer; vice president. Miss Matilda Sellemeyer: secretary, Miss Ella Mutschler; treasurer. Rev. L. C. Hessert. A new constitution and by-laws were adopted, and en-1 dorsed by every one present. The society also agreed that henceforth instead of holding business meetings at ! the homes of the members, they would be held at the time of the regular Sunday evening C. E. service. The meetings at the homes will be continued and held once a month, but will be purely social in form. Quite a lot of business matters were discussed, and then Monday evening's hours were given over to a social. A musical term contest was instructive, and of Interest. A most novel contest, was that of throwing a ball through a suspended embroidery hoop, sides being formed for this contest. The 'side'’ with Miss Matilda Sellemeyer leader, won over that with Miss Ella Mutschler, leader. A luncheon proved veryrefreshing. Mr. and Mrs. James Hurst entertained at dinner Sunday in compliment to Mr. and Mrs. Albert Katterheinrich a.id children of South Bend, who returned Sunday afternoon after a visit here. Mr. and Mrs. John Staker were also guests. The Womens’ Christian Temperance Union will hold its regular meeting Wednesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Jacob Atz on North Second street. The Tri-Kappa sorority will meet next Tuesday, October first, with Miss Jean Lutz.
