Entered at the poetoffice in Decatur, Indiana, as second class lu*U. Rev. M. H. Appleby, pastor of the .Methodist church Os Lebanon, says; ; “Mr. Ralston is too big a man to play

i peanut politics. We have had pea-1 nut politics in Indiana because we I have had peanut politicians, but -Mr. Ralston is too broad a man to stoop j to such petty methods. “He is too big a man to be spoiled by the seductions and rewards oi office. If he is elected governor he will still be Sam Ralston to ail the > triends and neighbors of former years, Only small men are turned i by the flatteries and voices of victory from the friends who shared their defeats and enjoyed their confidence in I the day of obscurity. .Mr. Ralston if elevated to high office will be Sam Ralston to all the old friends, and his triumph will not be complete if they ‘ are not with him to share it The latch string of the gubernatorial mansion will always be out to the people of Boone county if he occupies it ".Mr. Ralstons home life is ideai: and it he becomes governor that! wholesome home atmosphere w ill lie ! transferred to a conspicuous place where it will have a wide influence for good. What this will mean to the . people of Indiana in these days of lax views and looser practices is in calculable As .Mr. Ralston's friends and neighbors, we know how much he is indebted for his success to the Capable and accomplished wife, who presides over and creates the atmosphere of his hprne Our pride in his advancement will be increased by our knowledge that Mrs. Ralston will not fail to measure up to the fail demands of high station and that in the fierce light that beats upon the throne she will exemplify the virtues that have made the American home the queenly mother of greatness and happiness” < life-long Jay county republican, who is going to support Wilson this year, gives the best reasons in the world for so doing He said four year*

ago the republican national platform i pledged a revision of the tariff and Taft, then a candidate, said in his speeches that that pledge meant a downward revision. Taft was elected, has served one term, and Instead of keeping his pledge, has been a reactionary president, signed the Payne--1 Aldrich tariff law, and has failed to i keep faith with the people by vetoing ; every bill passed by congress revising the tariff downward. Roosevelt is ■ now for reform. He served seven years as president and during these 1 seven years most of the evils of j ■ which he now complains, became j realities. During these seven years as chief executive Roosevelt never raised his hand in the interest of re I • form.-—Portland Sun.

A vote for Richard K. Erwin for judge of the supreme court of Indiana j is a vote for a man, whom you know, a product ot our own county, and serves to place there a man in whose honor and integrity we all have the * greatest confidence. It likewise serves to place Adams county in a better position, puts us on the map, • as it were, and all«4hese things help in various ways. He should have the unanimous support of the voters of i Adams county. We know he would appreciate it and we know that a vote from the opposition in his old Union, township, where he was born and raised would mean more than all the votes in an entire county somewhere else He has earned the right to the honor he asks, and we should be proud of him and show it on election ' day. The calamity yelpers are working 'overtime They are doing their bee*.’ to frighten the voters by assuring them that a panic will come upon the country if Wilson is elected. Nothing can be done but to let them yelp. Wilson is going to be elected, and so far as the future is concerned the business men and manufacturers of the country do not seem to be at all alarmed They are moving along with less concern than ever before on the eve of a presidential election.' ' doe to the fact no doubt that they feel I that Wilson s election will be a good j thing for the country. But these yelp- i ers will continue to growl and howl | panic after the election until a lot * of them land in the bug houses of the country.—Columbia City Post, The democratic state campaign will j close next week with a brilliant fin | ' ish. when a number of the greatest | 1 speakers of the day will be rushed

over the state in special trains, speaking in practically every county seat. The program will be announced in a day or two. The victory is won, unless the democrats become over-con-fident and throw away tlie opportunity. Every voter who believes in the principles for which the demo- ' cratic party has so long contended, and who really wants these great and grave questions settled for all time to come, should make a precinct worker out of himself and aid in getting tho vote out. Dr. Henry .Moore, the Indianapolis man,' who is devoting his life to the study and prevention of tuberculosis, is here today, organizing Adams county for the salf of Red Cress i

stamp*. In this busy whirl, when we meet a man, big enough to devote his time to a work that will aid others and prevent suffering and death, we take our hat off and say, “God bless you.” In this class stands Dr. Moore, a noble example of self-sacrifice and earnest endeavor. He is to be honored and respected. Adams county has full right to feel proud of her representation In the affairs of the state. With D*w Eiling ham as secretary of state, H. L. Confer as his assistant, J. Fred France as clerk of tne supreme court. Dr. I. S Hoyers i member of the state board oi health, and after the November election R. K. Erwin as a judge of th® supreme court, the fact should oe recognized that we are getting “thar." The work of fifty years past for the democratic pony is being recognized. — — The r. eting of Congressman Adair in thia city Thursday evening will be one of the important ones of the campaign. If anybody desires to ask him a question they win certainly be given that opportunity, and we are sure that the answer will be honest and fair and open This splendid representative of the right* of people stands where he always stood, fur those things that will give the greatest good to the greatest number of ' people. j Calendar.
