IF YOU DON’T i YOU CAN’T VOTE IN NOVEMBER. —— j McCulloch stands for a new lax law. a new highway act that will I produce good roads at economic prices, the collection of the automobile fees ut home and the spending of that money on our own roads. He is for Indiana and its people and ho , | is your lx st bet for governor. J Hundreds of republicans deClara , I the league of nations the greatest step forward in two thousand years and yet announce their intention of , voting for Harding. That’s what can be called partisanship of the rankest kind and every one who does it will regret it in the years to come. Think back a few years and ask yourself it you are not better off than you was and then consider seriously how you are going to vote in November. If the people will sit down and consider their own best interests, the democrats will win in November overwhelmingly.

If you had a contract with a set of men who have i.ot done us they promised wot Id you reemploy them or others who endorsed them if you was handling your own business. ■ '[They why should the voters of Indi j ' ana stand for McCray and Davis and Hines and the ethers who represent the republicans on the state ticket? This is no time for a pessimist.' • Smile mid talk cheerful things. The' world is advancing and things will ' be better in the future than they | have the past. It is a matter! 1 of history that the world never went ■ ■ through a real epoch and knew it at; ' the time. You are doing so now and the future will write a wonderful! story of this age. Keep on smiling.l 1. t In every state in the west where t Governor Cox has campaigned there [ is a strong trend towards him and in- 1 i that he will carry most of these t states. He will complete his long I tour of that section this week and will then campaign in this *sectidn j and the east up to election day. He : is making a hard fight against heavy i odds and is lighting for you whether ’ you realize it or not. f I Senator Tom Taggart, State Chair man Ben Bosse, Mrs. Alice FosterMcCulloch. Hon. Fred VanNuys and Hon. Dale J. Crittenberger will tour ■ Adams county on Wednesday, each with a message that you should hear, j They will speak at Geneva, Berne and Monroe during the day and will I ■lose with a meeting in this city that 'veiling. The public is urged to hear 'hem. You must register before next Monday evening or you cannot vote n yhe November election. Democrats ire urged tp call at democratic head-j liiarters any evening this week or to ' see that their registration blanks are i Hied out and in proper hands. If you ’ lon’t do this be sure to go to the! registration booth next Monday be-, tween eight in the morning and nine hi the evening and qualify to vote. ” The voters seem to be asleep this year but they are ncd. They are just so busy mak ug money that they forget that the conditions may not al ways exist. Senator Harding does ot hesitate to say that the wages of laboring men are too high and that j ether changes must be made which ! will not be to the advantage of the I common people. You w-'ll know perhaps when too late that you should have bad more interest in th'e campaign. The Decatur sugar factory will open tomorrow with the outlook for a splendid campaign duriifg which, they will turn out many hundred ; thousand pounds of sugar, will pay the farmers of this locality thousands of dellars for their beets, will employ several hundred men at good wages and will operate more than a hun drert nays. It is one of the best insti I luticns of its kind in the United States and a mighty good thing for • ! Decatur and Adams county. I The republican hand book being , sent out announces that the league of nations will be scrapped. We | don t believe it will be for we don’t i believe the people will permit them ,to win on such a statement. The' election is five weeks off and We' have faith in the people of this conn-i (try doing the right thing and we. are' | surer than ever in our lives that the Ii democratic position on this grave question is right. Governor Cox is the livest. most ' earnest and capable young man in I American politics today, with a clean jj record that will stand any investiga- j tion. He can do things and as gover- 1 j nor of the state of Ohio has proven I it. He is from the common people I asjd for them and you are making a ] serious mistake if you vote against f him. His heart beats with yours, his I interests are yours, he will serve you I faithfully and well as your president j and he should be easily elected. NOTICE! Necessity demands some unbroken 1 hours for work. Will receive callers I Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday I evenings each week. Hem stitching I done any time.
