Indiana, as second class matter ‘ A dollar a bushel for wheat is | enough for any farmer.”—Harding. Mrs. Fuller of Pittsburg, who speaks at the court house Thursday night is one of the able women of the nation. Hear her. The straw votes show the trend towards (’ox everywhere and the lead ! taken by Harding early, is rapidly being overcome. Two weeks yet. Make 'em count. The democrats of Adams county | present to you clean ticket of cap- I able men who will serve you well at-<i who will prove efficient. Vote for them. It has been suggested that Senator Harding make a speech from his (rent porch at Marion to the "absent voters.” nobody permitted but absentees. If you want your taxes to he so high that you can't pay them, keep on voting the republican ticket in Indiana. It will meet your expecta tions along that line and then some. Senator Harding may make some votes in Ohio by discussing racial equality but he certainly "spilled the' leans" when he discussed that serious problem in Tennessee and Kentucky. When one thinks of the administration in Indiana the past four years Im smiles when he hears some politician argue that only republicans are efficient and capable. They have one quality and plenty of it—nerve. ; McCray is not a farmer. Did you ever know a genuine farmer who' made millions out of a farm? He is a member of the Chicago Board of Trade, where prices are manipulated and fortunes made. Laboring men, you owe it to yourself and to the political party which stands for a square deal for you as well as for the farmer and the business man and Hie capitalist, to vote tor Cox. • McAdoo is speaking to the greatest crowds of any political speaker in the country and his tour through the west will assure the vote of many stales in that section for the democratic candidates. Remember the promises made by Governor Goodrich four years ago and how he broke them and then vote Jor , ii-JMiul . -

LACK OF CONFIDENCE! hi the republican presidential primaries Senator Harding received only 85 votes in Adams county. It showed a lack of confidence In him. This same weak, evobbly man is now the candidate for president, nominated in that controlled convention by a clique of senators and politicians. Surely you are not going to vote for a man who received only 85 votes. » - „ I the democrats who have always reple.euted the people and will continm 'to do so. H's your party. The republicans tell the laborer! I they are getting too much money., They say a dollar wheat is enougl for the farmers. How can anybody vote for them when they tre votlnt against their own interests. •if the democrats of Adams count, continue to work in the next twi weeks as they have the past fort i night, there is no doubt as to the re ;ults. It will be a victory that ever, one will feel good about, except th iew who have posted foolish bets. . The Chicago Tribune, leading r I ..ttldii an paper of the west, has con out squarely for J. Hamilton Lewi the dentot ratic candidate for governo I'he quarrel in Chicago between th Thompson and anti-Thompson force ''reutens to turn the entire state ov to the democratic columns this yea. Let ’em fight. The republicans kept your taxe down this year but the new law wil show its teeth next year. The: figure you won’t look that up unti jitter election. Remember you vot Tuesday after the last. Monday to pa your taxes thlk year. Vote for Mi Culloch. Taxes have always been a politics i' ee and always will. If you don' I wait h it. they will eat you up. Unde I the new law your taxes will continu o soar for it was carefully though i:i that more money could be take '>t state purposes. -The idea i rong. That’s the trouble. Kill it. if it takes as hard work to get i crowd as the republicans use here to day with the special, it is a circu nd not a political campaign. Th< democratic speakers have had goo< crowds all over the county by simpl; announcing that qualified men an< women would discuss the issues o the day. The misrepresentation of Governo Con's opinion of the traveling sales men was shown up by the candidate in his speech at Cleveland Saturda; night. This is a sample of the meth ods being used by the republicans If they can't be square in a cam paign. will they be honest with yoi when in office? The fake propaganda being serf out by the republican national com niittce should turn every vote) against them. When they have noth ing but the appeal to your prejudices when they attempt to divide the coun try into classes, when they fail to dis cuss in a fair and open manner, th. great issues of the hour, they prove

unfit to secure control. And now it Is announced that the; real boss in Indiana this year is' Governor Goodrich, They are not using him for public speeches because his unpopularity In his own 1 political party are too well known, but he is called into each conference md it is claimed he has his way in about every plan. He is trying to lave his tax law. Two weeks in which to finish the most important, campaign ever fought n this country. Harding, the front porch wobbler has proved his unfitless for the high office he seeks. The people will refuse to turn the •ountry over to a bunch of a half dozen millionaires, led by Dupont, lhe powder king. Cox is a fearless and honest fighter for the rights of lhe people and he will sweep the country. One hundred independent progressives and republicans came out yesterday for Governor Cox. They will vote for him because they believe he stands for the best things for this nation. In the list will be found the names of many of the leading tipnkJrs of the country. The tide to Cox s swinging hard and two weeks will >ut him over. The efforts of the republicans to stampede the country md win on a “fluke” have failed. Kirkland township must send H. 900.82 more to the state next year' Ilian you did last. You get nothing, n return. Your money is being used extravagantly and. needlessly. Me-- ; "ulloch, candidate for governor on he democratic ticket, promises to hange the law and he means it. If .’ou elect him and a democratic legisature. the law will be changed and o your interests and not for the lenefit of a few individuals. s. Ora Davies, short in his accounts it Kokomo, is the. republican candilate for state treasurer. They tried o get him oft but Jim Watson would tot let them. Yet the republican ■ommittee has the nerve to try to ’rove to you that Jim is a great man or the senatorship. Jim voted wilthe reactionaries every time he had i chance. He manipulated the con•entions of 1912 and 1920 at Chiago. He is opposed to your inter- i Sts and the most dangerous man in ndiana, ifolipcaily. We will wake up some d? these uornings to the fact that few people lave a coal supply and then some one s going to get mad, but that won't ’revent a lot of suffering. If the Inliana Coal Commission authorized by he recent special session of the legMature is going to bring relief to the leople of Indiana, they should act to lay and not a month from now.' What the people want first is a sup-’ >ly of coal. Then you can settle any ; lifficulties or controversies you may lave with the operators, mineral or >thers interested. * < itizens bt Adams county your ‘ axes will be higher next year than you ever dreamed of. Much of this money goes to the state and is wast ad. You don't get a penny back in iny way. They have even taken the | iutomobile tax. Besides this the; high valuation on your property 1 makes possible a vast expenditure >f money because the limit of indebtedness “was not changed and in del lars and cents you will be forced to pay more than you t ver did and more than you should. A vote for McCul-' loch this year means a vote against! high taxes. He has given you his 1 pledge to secure a new law. A vote for McCray means your approval of the law. Take no chances. —' I ■" • The efforts of the republican na-1 tional committee, assisted by local! workers, appealing to the prejudices of the people is proof (liat they do not dare come out and discuss the is-; sues. The people will vote this year on the league issue nationally and the tax law in the state but the re- j publicans are sending out propaganda to the wet and the dry, the people of evety foreign descent, to the people of each religion, to lodges, to farm-! ers, to laborers, to colored men and to lhe traveling men. They have I

■' ' 85 “ T spent millions on mailing lists and they send you the dope they think will make you mad. They criticize Wilson, they tell all kinds of stories and they do every thing else they can think of to influence you to vote 1 against the democrats. There is no argument to any of their "stuff." They do not dwe to meet the issues fairly. ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦* ♦ DOINGS IN SOCIETY ♦ Club Calendar — Monday Research Club—Mrs. R. D. Myers. I). Y. H. Class —U. H.
