As alwuys the senut- * or proved a genial host and the meeting was a most eventful one at which plans for every part of the big campaign were completed.

' ■» The Indiana Democratic Editorial association are planning to hold their mid summer meeting at South Bend the latter part of August and it will be the read letter session of the editors, marking the real opening of the campaign in the state. Jimmie Cox of Ohio, candidate for president, and Franklin D. KoOßbvell of New York, candidate for vice president, will be :he speakers. There will be other .lumbers on the program aud a big lime for those who attend. The Northern Indiana Fair will open in two weeks and the men in charge are doing everything in their power to make it bigger and better than advertised. There is not the least question that the Decatur fair will outclass everything of its kind , in the middle west, and you will find here the greatest exhibit of live stock, the best races, the real thrillers in public exhibitions, the cleanest shows the most wonderful lines of products and the things you wish to see at a big fair. The program is great and the show will be even; better. __ — If Senator Harding has thrust a j sword into his own party, he has giv- j en the democrats a clear issue and j great opportunity.

MONEY COULD NOT BUY IT, HE SAYS Pennsylvania R. R. Man Would Not Take Any* thing for the Good Tanlac Did Him. “No, sir, I wouldn't be back in the j fix 1 was in before I got Tanlac Tor jab iho money in the »o:M. said Earl .1 f-'- -mutter, a popuu- bol.e* maker for the Pennsylvania railroad, living on R. F. D. U, Fort Wayne, lffdo recently. “I had always enjoyed -good health." he continued, “until one year ago, when my stomach got out of order and I commenced to lose In weight ami bcame run-down generally. I work as '.-oiler maker at night a. it have to carry my midnight iun:h, and every time 1 ate it I would get so nauseated about thirty minutes as on aids that 1 could not retain a bite 1 had eaten. Nc; -.ns I al e seem el it have a bit of taste to it ,and 1 would bloat all tip gas, feel tight acres;' the- chest •id have the vo.st gnawing pains in m« stomach. Soei.c.mes when these spells came on 1 would be in such agony l thought I woulVt die in spite ;of all I could do. Often I would gel iso weak and nervous that my legs j seemed to give way and 1 couldn't 1 hold myself up. and would have to go |to bed and be laid up two or three • days. My head ached constantly, in fact, I was troubled in one way or ae other until 1 never knew what it was I to feel good. “When 1 commenced taking T.-.nl ic I thought it might give me a little temporary relief, but it never once : entered my mind that it would make a clean sweep of my troubles like it has and put me back on my feet in as good health as I ever was. 1 have gained twelve pounds in weight and am feeling as fine as l did in the best day of my life. My digestion was never better in my life and I am enjoying everyting 1 eat. because it never both ers me in any way. My nerves are ;•- strong as steel and 1 don't have head idles any more. I am strong enough !to tackle any kind of work and 1 ; lon't believe any man feels berter than ’ I do. It keeps me pretty busy work- , ng at night and looking after ray little ! arm. too. out on the edge of town, but Tanlac will keep a man on top.” Tanlac is sold In Decatur at Smith, 1 Yager & Falk's; in Berne at Stengel £ Craig's and In Geneva at F.

He is | against the treaty in any form; op i posed to the league however amended. This opens the way for any pos- ! itive plan which Governor Cox may propose. Anything affirmative by ! ihe democrats will be better than this deadly republican negative. Mr. Harding has cleared the field for hig opponents and given them a stronger cause and a more favorable fighting ground than they could have hoped for. —New Y'ork Times. Col. Fred Reppert, greatest cattle auctioneer in the United States, known from coast to coast, will open in auctioneer’s school here January 3rd next. Like every thing else he tackles, he will do this just rght and within a few years the auctioneer college here will be known over the entire country. He will build splendid buildings, club rooms and otheri wise make the school, which Is to he | located at the beautiful park just j east of town, the most attractive iff every way. Details will be worked i out during the next few weeks and work on the school halls will start immediately after the fair. It is an important step for Col. Reppert and for this community and the succesd of the great enterprise is assured from the numerous inquiries and boosts he is receiving already. The country newspapers are having a continous struggle these days and the time is very near when dozens of them must cease publication. The spot market prices range from fourteen to eighteen cents per pound making the newspapers stand a loss of at least fifty dollars a day on a 3,000 circulation. Os course none of them can stand this long. In the meantime, the larger papers are not worrying-, since they have a contract and the managers sit back and smile at the poor business ability of the smaller brother. The manufacturer is selling his paper to jobbers who boost the price to suit their own taste. It's a fierce game and the chances that it win work out seejn to beeouge slighter each week. In the meantime we are taking our own medicine and trying to smile.
