TAGGART AND BOSSE:— Tills county has as guests today a number of distinguished citizens, including Senator Thomas Taggart and State Chairman Hen Bosse. Both of these men deserve great credit for their success in life. Born almost in poverty they have climbed the ladder of success to heights rarely obtained. These men are now admitted to be leading business men of the state and as officials have each won the regard of their fellow men. As mayor of Ind lanapolis, auditor of Marlon county, as a member of the United States senate, Mr. Taggart has proven his safeness - and his intelligence and as leader ot i his party for many years he has i drawn to him the men in every class i of live. He is honest and trustworthy < and deserving of support in the coming election. If you wish to know the standing of Mayor Bosse of Evans- ' ville, ask any citizen of that section of the state and they will tell you he is < a most wonderful man and a citizen who has done more for his home town 1 than any person who has ever resided there. He is energetic, a Christian gentleman and an earnest democrat. 1 We welcome them to Adams county. * of life. He is honest and trustworthy Senator Harding they certainly show «

Multiplying the Wheat Yield 21TtmesPerMan “It takes thirteen minutes of human labor to produce every bushel of wheat that comes out of a good American wheat state. In Europe a bushel of wheat required four and one-half hours of labor." —Dearborn Independent. Europe with its pre-war wealth of labor developed intensive hand cultivation to an extent undreamed of because unnecessary in America. In the United States labor shortage developed a type of farming which gave petroleum products a chance to lend a hand. | Increased labor-shortage in the United States has meant increased application of gasoline-power to the farms of the Middle West. Mechanical power has multiplied the wheat yield 21 times per man. The fact that power machinery, and gasoline to run it, is going on the farms, is responsible in no small degree for the large crops produced for 1920. The great mission of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is to produce enough gasoline to supply the farmer with all he can use at the time and place he needs it, and at a low price. "Domestic consumption of gasoline, far out-strip-ping our production of crude petroleum, has forced gasoline up in price. During the first four months of 1920, gasoline consumption increased 796,030 gallons a day more than production during the same period.” (Oil News, July 5, 1920.) While more crude oil is being produced in 1920 than even the most enthusiastic optimist dared predict five years ago, it is not sufficient to meet the ever increasing demand. Every facility developed by the vast organization of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) through years of service, is being directed to the end of supplying the farms of the Middle West with necessary petroleum products. Transportation difficulties have been anticipated by this company, so that there has been no serious shortage of petroleum products to the farmer in any of the states served by this company — the dark green tank wagon delivering even to the tractor in the field in emergencies. Helping the farmer produce and market his crop is one of the essential services rendered by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) to 'the people of the Middle West.

a partisanship hard to equal. Heretofore they have claimed to bo an independent, have yelled prohibition, have denounced those who stood for the things that the republican candidate for president was Interested in. Now they uro out for him, and are covering up the truths about their candidate which they know will prevent tho women and hundreds of men from voting for him. Can you figure it out? e 1 .hi...— Broken promises by the present state administration should be sufficient reason for voting for McCulloch. He stands for a new tax law that will give you a square deal, he stands for a decent and workable highway law, he stands for the pay ment of the automobile tax at home and the expenditure ot that fund o>. our own roads. There are dozens ot other reasons w-hy you will support him if you realize your own best in terests. The straw vote taken by the Colum bus Dispatch shows the fight betweei Cox and Harding a real contest am their vote has been largely taken it republican strongholds. However you cannot depend altogether on straw votes for every one knows that the ones now being conducted over the country are being purposely worked to give effect and to discourage the op ponents. The vote that counts will b< cast November 2nd. Remember the meeting at the court house at eight o'clock this evenini when Taggart, Bosse, Mrs. McCulloch Crlttenbergor and VanNuys will talk They will bring you the messages o' the campaign. If you disapprove of the wild ex pendlture of your cash by the favorer Indianapolis crowd, register between this 'and Monday and tius qualify tc :ast your vote against the crowd a inch has endorsed them.

The Brokaw theater was filled with an earnest attentive audience of both men nad women who were anxious to hear the men they have chosen to place at the head in the management of state and national affairs. Col. HBprison; Dr. McCulloch and Sam Foster were the speakers and each expressed their satisfaction with the audience that greteed them at a time when farmers are finding their work so crowding that It must needs be an exceptional meeting to call them from their tasks. Dr. McCulloch said he had heard that Steuben county was considered a weak county politically but after seeing the size of the audience he refused to believe it. "Also,” he said, ‘Steuben county some years back gave Tom Marshall one of the strong incentives to his successful career and his greatest assistant in rising to the high position he n -w holds. —I refer to Mrs. Marshall. And now, when all women are given the opportunity to share in the guidance of state and national welfare. Steuten county again comes to the fore and places on her county ticket the name of a woman, Mrs. Alice L'-mn-.ger, for Measurer, a woman well fitted by ability and education to fill the office.” POLITICAL QUESTION IMPORTANT (United Press Service) Cleveland, Sept. 29.—(Special to Daily Democrat) —The most important question before the American Le gion here is whether the organization shall take an active part in the political disputes of the United States. Strong forces within the legion favored striking out the political restriction clause in the legion constitution. There were indications today that the clause would be permitted to remain but that a compromise would be I effected by the adoption of a resolu ' tion requiring officers to send out questiosnaires to political candidates.
