1 Mother, where sre you? The league of nations stands as a protector lor your son. against war and for . peace forever. • I Union township must pay $1,620.60 more in shite taxes next year than ihey did last. You get nothing in return, That’s how the new tax law works. It has been suggested that the SIOO epublican signs over the country be hanged to read "Warren Wiggle and _ 'alvin Wobble.” It would be appropriate. The boys are up on their toes in his county and are out for an old fashioned majority. They have the ■andidates, Uie platform and the right position. They are going over the top. Judge Meek is supporting Jimmy 'ox. He knows him and his ability or he has lived in Ohio during all he time the governor has been in jffice. He argues in a most forcible nanner. You should hear him. Republican orators are not brag ting about the administration of Jov. Goodrich because of the nnpopu'arity of some of the legislation he caused to be enacted—chiefly the new tax law.—Chicago Tribune. (Rep.) The republican national committee after a ten day quarrel decided that Rochester is the eastern “dead line’ for Senator Harding. Beyond that he must not appear east. Imagine such a condition in a political party that the candidate for president is not permitted to speak in the great est metropolis in the .nation. There is surely something seriously wrong

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 11.1920

> The new tax law is costing Adams county about $66,000 for state pur-' ■ poses alone. There are ninety-two j counties in the state and many of 1 them much larger than this. Think ' of the vast sum of money that is i drawn into Indianapolis. The Chicago Tribune, places Indi-1 ana in the doubtful column. It wasj two weeks ago but now it looks very I 1 much ns though Jimmy Cox will 1 1 sweep the state, that Tom Taggart | will he elected senator and Carl Me-1 Culioch and the entire ticket elected.' Just remember that the league of nations is an effort to make universal' world peace forever. Wouldn’t it be t safe feeling mothers and fathers? If you see it right we are fighting this year for the greatest cause ever I known in this country. The democratic meetings now being held in the school houses over this county show that great interest Is being manifested. From forty to a hundred people attend each speaking jvent and they are seeing that the position of the democratic party in

his campaign js right. The contest between Jim Watson <nd Tom Taggart for the senalorship s a “hoss race." It is a foregone onclusion that Watson will run considerably liehind Harding, and it vould surprise no one if Taggart hould run ahead of Cox. —Chicago Tribune (Rep.) The feeling that Harding is an unafe man for president is growing rapidly these days. A man who hanges his mind on the most im>ortant issues ever discussed in a po itical campaign is likely to do the same thing in the great problems that ■vill arise during the next four years. ox is safe and steady and strong. Take the table printed in the Daily Democrat yesterday and notice how much more money your township or corporation will send to the state next year under the Gobdrich-McCrav law than you did under the old law last year. Not a single salary of state officials has been increased. Where is the money going? The state highway commission has cost you a lot of money this year. They have built six miles of road and nc one knows what the cost is. The contract is thousands of dollars higher* than any county pays and the

overhead added with the big organ!- j i zation of employes maintained, makes 3 it a most expensive proposition. ? Think ft over men and women. ( Adams county must send more I than SIOO,OOO to the state next year. Think of it. Think of what that means for the state with ninety-two | counties and then vote for McCulloch and the democratic ticket. McCray, has endorsed the Goodrich adminisi tration. That's enough. But you 1 must add also every dollar of the j automobile tax which means —$30,000 j or more, a total of $130,000. Carl Joslyn of Cambridge, Mass.,! who was awarded the $5,000 prize by the republican national committee, j for the best platform submitted, in, competition, has announced that he ■annot support Harding. He says he has hoped the senator would land on a position that he could favor but he has made up his mind he can’t, so he’s off of him. Thousands are doing it. They cannot support Borah, who said he would not follow Jesus 1 Christ on a league of nations. Mayor Bosse of Evansville, democratic state chairman and one of the leading business men of the state, was a visitor here this morning. He has been with the Cox train and came down from Fort Wayne to see i the best county in the state, which he I has heard of all his life he says. He met many people here, leaving for hi* 1 home .this afternoon. He is a successful man of big affairs and has : made his way by his own ability from a poor lad to a leader in church, community. political and business. The most convincing argument that the new- tax law is a failure is the fact that you as a tax payer must dig up many dollars for your share and get nothing in return. If you build a ' school house or a bridge or a road in your township, you at least have | something in return for what you have spent, but what do you get for the big sum we must send to Indianapolis. far greater than ever before? It is no argument that everything , costs more for the state officials have not been in on the salary increase. It’s important that you think about your own best interests right now. We could not estimate the lip | mense crowd that saw and heard I Jimmy Cox, ideal candidate for presi-' dent of all the people at Fort Wayne last night. It was beyond the great i ; est expectations of the campaign 1 managers there, it was so large that I | only a fighter could get within hearing distance. The Temple theater was packed at six o’clock, two hours before the candidate spoke, the streets were lined with people and! the space around the southeast cor- < > . ■ -L ner of the court house was jammed! ifor a block. The candidate explain 1 ed his position clearly and answered every question fairly and honestly. ! I It was a wonderful occasion and will increase the tide to the ’democrafic 1 ticket now prevalent.

Coal Problem May Go to ( ourt (Continued from page is being diverted to other states so as to escape the provisions of the con. missions’ order. A certain group of mine owners headed by Phi) H. Penna, secretary lof the state and national 1 organiza- | tions of bitumjfious operators, have deI dared repeatedly they have no coal tot sale in this state. Some retailers are refusing to handle coal because thej are dissatisfied with the $2.25 mar I ginal profit .allowed them for each | ton. And the jobbers are not bringing foreign coal into the state because they are not so restricted in adjoining Rates. With these‘facts clearly defined tn ‘he face of predictions of cold weather soon, the coal men were awaiting a ( . move by the state body such as to j t seize Indiana mined coal and throw it ;>n the market or some other drastii action to accomplish its purpose.. which will throw the case into court Appeals for coal are being received by operators from cities throughout the state. According to the Indiana polis producer, retailers from Elkhart. I South Bend, Hope. Berne. Columbus. ! Salem. Delphi, Peru and other cities i and towns have gone to the operators ■ asking for a supply of coal. ! ■ Attorneys for the Indiana retail coal ! merchants’ association at a hearing be fore the commission yesterday trying to boost the $2.25 marginal profit threatened to carriVheir fight into th< courts.
