That date is Auto Day in Decatur and you wilt want to !)■* here. Something doing. « Fifty merchants in sixteen autoiuobiles started out today to tell the people within a radius of twenty miles about our splendid stores and how they are equipped for the Christmas and winter trade. Who says our business men are not hustlers? This is a good time to make up your mind that you are going to save ten per cent of your income next year. Join a Christmas club,’ buy a property. make some investment that will make you meet a certain portion each week or month. Start a systematic saving campaign. Take a squint at the statements made by the various banks of Adams county as published this week under call from the national or state department. You will find that these statements show a total deposit of about four million dollars, a sufficient amount to keep the wolf from the door for a while at least. Similar conditions are prevalent over the nation, in other words, times seem to be fairly good. Any doubt that may have existed that Mr. Hughes had a chance to secure any electoral votes in California has been erased by statements from both the republican and democratic comhilttees of that state, setting forth the ikcts that the lowest democratic elector will have at least 1,200 more votes than the higher republican and that the highest democrat will have a majority of 3,80 f. Mr. Hughes and Mr. Wiiicox ought to be pretty thoroughly convinced by this time, as every one else is. An exchange thinks the resignation of Mr. Willcox from the chairmanship of the republican national committee and the selection of Mr. Hays of Indiana in his place wouM Ire the first harbinger of republican vittory in 1920. Delusions die hard among the republicans. What is needed for republican victory is a different republican party and not a different chairman of the republican national committee. Mr. Willcox is not "t---sponsible for the fact that’the split of 1912 was not healed by the action of the republican convention at Chicago last June. —Hertford City News. A question which is deserving of your most careful consideration at this time is that of a new constituMens and Boys warm clothing at right prices. • THE MYERS-DAILEY . COMPANY

'lion in Indiana. Without doubt the I present constitution is considerably worn and needs revision at least in lots, particularly with regards to the tax problem. The only Mason to’ further postponement of action look- ' ing toward a new constitution is tint there are so many interests to he reckoned with, so many fanatics to push along their particular hobby that there is some doubt as Io whether the new one would or would not be an improvement. It should be Remembered that a constitution written now will be used by several geieralions to come in all probability and it should be built by the very soundest men in the state and tht n only after careful deliberation, inv. litigation and discussion witli the citizenry of Indiana. The National Tribune i:t a '■ >lumn and half editorial attributes to sone extent at least the recent defeat es Charles Evans Hughes to the fact that the republican campaign wis poorly managed and that the national committee and management was ma le up too largely of young men. too much bumptiousness of . outh and too much of youth’s lack of knowledge of their country’s history and the temper of the people. The paper sacs iurther: "Looked at dispassionately they were outclassed in the matter of publicity and literary work by the democratic national committee. Particularly the reimblican national committee was neglectful of the veterans and their kin. In private conversation the members, they said, in so many words that the old soldiers would vote the reupblican ticket any way and it was no use wasting money and attention upon them.” They failed to even mention them in their Chicago platform while the democrats took immediate advantage of that fact and a IJed to that was a record of real worth for the old soldier, his widow or his • family. The Tribune says this mishandling also extended to other equally important features of the situation and that for these reasons came the very decided changes in Kansas and other states.
