VICTORY AND DEFEAT:— The mathematical systems employed by the republican press of Indiana in calculating the results of the election on the third of November, are marvelous things. These newspapers have been almost unanimous in telling us that in Indiana the republicans won a great victory. Just how a victory for the republican ticket can be figured out of a democratic plurality of over 50,000 is entirely new, but it may be consoling and so it would be rude and cruel to awaken them from pleasant dreamer. Some of our editorial friends, the enemy, also tell us that while the republicans won a big victory in Indiana, the democrats were victorious in the national election. That is still more marvelous, since Indiana elected more democratic congressmen proportionately than any other state. And it is on the number of congressmen and senators elected that these editors calculate the victories and defeats. The record of the incoming 1915 legislature, and the two years of democratic rule in all the state offices just commencing, are going to be such that the democratic plurality which is now the cause of so much worry to republicans will be changed to a democratic majority in 1916.

get together and do things worth while. The season for selling Red Cross stamps, with which the fund for fighting tuberculosis is raised, is here and some one should take charge of the campaign in this city. The work is one of the most laudable we know of and deserves support in any community. The campaign in Indiana will open November 20th. The basket ball season opens in Decatur this evening and it recal's the fact tliat the boys and girls of this community have not yet been furnished with a gymnasium or Y. M. C. A. It’s all right to talk about saving them and keeping them away from j public amusement places, but there | is only one way to do it, and that is by furnishing them a clean and wholesome place to go. Decatur merchants should awaken to the fact that the harvest is here for their goods. This |s the season when you should be selling your goods and selling at a profit. If you are not doing it. the trouble is largely with you. Work a little harder, push a little more, advertise and you will be well repaid for your additional labor. Space in the Dally Democrat is for sale, and always brings results. A request that hunters in Indiana give up their sport until after the foot and moutli disease lias been controlled is to be made by Governor Ralston and it should be cheerfully complied with. It has been proven that in several instances the disease was carried from one farm to another by hunters and of course this happened before any one knew the disease was in the locality. If giving up a few rabbits or birds will stop the disease which threatens a meat famine and great financial loss, it should be done. George B. Caldwell, of Chicago, president of the Investments Security association, in an address at the bankers’ meeting in session at Philadelphia, said: “The United States is on the verge of the greatest prosperity the country has ever known. We have reached the bottom after a

period of decline, and things are now getting better every day. I do not want to mix in politics, but I think all will agree with me that we have had about afn years, now, of agitation, and agitation is not good for business," Mr. Caldwell continued. Many of the new laws on our statute books are untried tool#, but the opposition which was bom of fear has now given way to a feeling that it is only fair to try them out and a belief that they may prove more beneficial than at first anticipated. Investment bankers are not opposed to the proper supervision of corporation or business.” I DOINGS IN SOCIETY 1 WEEK’S SOCIAL CALENDAR. Friday. Hard to Beat Class —Dr. and Mrs. Burgener.
