With honest Sam Raltsou for governor, you may feel assured that the people's rights and interests will be watched with care, and he. backed up by the able state officials who have proven their competency during the past two years, the record will be one that any state may feel proud of. "I am not a lawyer. If I am anything I am a plain business man and I say to you that 1 shall not cast my vote for any bill which will injure a business industry'in this city or any other.” —John Adair. Is it safe to trust him’ Does this statement frighten you, or does it remind you that .Mr Adair is an honest and safe and j careful representative who will look after »he interests of this district, as ( he would his own. " rr-r-ss j Decatur is to have a new federal building. John Adair has promised it and he has never yet failed to keep a promise. He doesn't make them until he knows just what he is doing. , Os course the opposition press will say that we hadn’t ought to have it. because It will cost something, but we have been paying our share for i many years to erect public buildings , over this nation and we can be repaid in no other way, but to have a build ing here. “We don't want to disturb the industry of the country. The changes in the tariff which we will make should be made only at such a rate and in ouch away as will least interfere with the normal and healthful course of commerce and manufac ture'”— Woodrow Wilson, democratic nominee for president. Does that sound like a panic? Does it sound like the statement of a wild crank, or does it sound like the statement of a sane business man? Every Democrat who can possibly afford it should give something toward the national campaign fund. The democratic party is not accepting a dollar from any big corporation or from any body of men who will seek to control them and the money necessary to complete the campaign must come from the people. We have secured some money which will be sent to the treasurer tomorrow. If you havn’t subscribed send your money to this office and we will take care of it and see that you are properly receipted. Senator Beveridge made a- serious mistake when he came into this district and asked what Adair had done in congress Every man, woman and j

1 child in the district knows that he ; has worked constantly for them, and that he has made a record unequaleti ,' In congress for fifty years. He has i led in the passage of a. number of i the best bills passed during the six : years he has been there and he will 'continue to represent the Eighth dis(l trict just as long as he wants to, notIJ withstanding anything that Beveridge i can say. i —.— 1 According to the National Tribune, i a paper published at Washington for the veterans of the civil war, Senator , Beveridge was resjionsible for the death of the Sulloway bill, which pro- ! vided for dollar-a-day pensions. And 1 yet that man is out asking the sol- ! diers and their friends in Indiana to vote for him for governor. He h:iv> never made good on any promise , made to the people. He is a slippery politician, unapproachable by any- , body but the silk hat class, and without a single qualification that entitles him to your support. An honest man would not say the things he has said about a public servant like John ' Adair. — The campaign will close next week with a hot finish in Adams county by the democrats. A meeting will be held .Monday evening at the headquarters, at which time Hon Dore B. Er- ; win and ex-Senator John W. Tyndall will speak. On the same evening or curs the Adair meeting at Bertie i There will be speeches all week over I the county, and Mr. Bosse is arranging for a big meeting here the last of the week, as well as at Berne and Geneva. The democracy of Adams county is united and they will win the most glorious victory in the history of this nation on November st'i. it remains only for the workers to do their duty. — A man's suit, all wool, which re- ' tails in this country for >12.00, sells in Lxiudon for >5.52. A ladies' serge suit > which costs >IO.OO here Is sold over ■there for >4.62. A ten-cent bottle of ( Colgate perfume costing ten cents here can be bought in English stores for two cents Witch Hazel soap 1 costs ten cents here, six cents In lx»ndon: boys' shoes cost >2.00 here, ami >l.o> there Fine business, isn't !t? These are net all. but only a few. Ever* articlee costs from one to fivetinies as much here as it does in old don, and who gets that profit? Not the retail business uieu. whose cotnpe- , tition makes film sell his goods at a close margin, but the manufacturer who controls the ontput. And many of you have been voting to help him do it for fifty years. How long are you Koiie; to continue this tax on the I many to make rich the few?

He is the only candidate for president who represents the real, thvital and the effective progr«»Mlv«* forces in this country. Z.
