One man said and he spoke the truth: ‘‘Whenever the citizens of a community march up and down the streets of a city singing “Home, Sweet Home," like they meant it, 1 that's a community in which it is good to live in."

After the elec- , tion which comes two weeks from tomorrow we should get busy on some , lines of procedure which will make us I advance the next year as far as we have this. __________ hob Tucker of Hie Cincinnati Eu- , quirer predicts that Wilson will carry Indiana by one hundred thousand and that Ralston will follow about twenty thousand bac kof that figure. That ought to be a small margin and the real truth is that most politicans will be surprised if the figures are not more titan those mentioned Congressman Adair will apeak at the court house 'tuursuay evening of this week He will tell you about the Mg issues of the day, and be will prove bis fairness to you if you will attend He is a representative of all the people and his record needs no defense.

in his Richmond speech, Mr. Bryan said: “It is not necessary to discuss state politics with Mr. Beveridge. Mr. Ralston is amply able to defend the state ticket of bU party against any charges that Mr. Beveridge may be able to make. Mr. Ralston does not need any outside assistance. He Is not only a match for Mr. Beveridge, but he is a match for all the new party leaders combined. 1 can say this, however that I have had a chance to test both Mr. Ralston and Mr. Beveridge. I have three times led 6,500,000 democrats in their assault on Wall street with the purpose of freeing the government from the control of predatory interests. Mr. Ralston was one of my ablest and most loyal supporters in all three of these assaults, and Mr. Beveridge was one of the most eloquent defenders that Wall street had. The people can trust Mr. Ralston. They cannot trust Mr. Beveridge. A man like Sam Ralston, whom Wall street could neither employ nor scare, will make a better governor for the people than a man lik Mr. Beveridge, who could not be separated trom the Wall street crowd until Indiana went democratic and he saw that he wc.s about to be cut off from the base of supplies."
