DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, SATURDAY, JANUARY 11. 1922. £

several months things have been going rather wild west fashion there with all kluds of hold-ups, robberies and other crimes. During the past few days several gangs have been taken in charge and indications arc that the gang taken yesterday were the brains of an organization aud I responsible for most of the crimes. That's stepping along for less than two weeks in office. ■ ■— - ■ 1 ■■ Senator Newberry is chesty aud says he is happy thfit he has been so completely exonerated. Can you beat it? He knows better than most anybody that the vote in the senate did not exonerate him. It gives him a right to draw his salary but that's about all you can say for it and just I such actiou does far more harm to I his party than could his removal have done.* When a man admits his guilt it takes nerve to uphold him and the two Indiana senators voted for him. It's now up to the people for the question will become one of the issues in the next election. Charles E. Magley, newly appointed road superintendent is busy now making his organization and within a few days will announce his appointments. The new officer is very much in earnest and will do his utmost to please the people by giving good service. He is planning a high standard and will not only make every effort to carry it out but will insist that each of his assistants does likewise. He asks the co-operation of the public and if this is given, the work can be handled much better. Mr. Magley will welcome suggestions and assistance. Over in Jay county the farmers are taking action to inform the state tax board that they don't exactly relish the mehods and plans used by that body in appraising real estate and fixing taxes at a point which has become most burdensome. A large number of the members of the farmer's federation of Jackson township met Wednesday night and enthusiastically adopted a resolution announcing their feelings th the matter. Copies were forwarded to the state tax board, who if wise will take notice. The big objection being made there and elsewhere over the state as to the orders recently issued that real estate is to be appraised at practically the same figure this year as it was three years ago though it has decreased thirty or forty per cent. ++++++++++++++++ + AUCTION SCHOOL NEWS ♦ +++++++++ + + + + 4- + + (Reported by M. R. Murdock and his worthy assistants, Emmens, Gillie and Springer) Henry D. Frey was reported sick yesterday. Walter J. Rierden and Harold T. Giilie were on the sick list today, while Otto L. Emmons was half sick. The Bellmont sale sure was a “knock out.” The Rev. Col. Perdue held services at Kirkland township high school Friday night. The “Glee Club” was unable to follow the leader. Col. H. C. Hull left this afternoon for Forrest, Ohio, to put the big punch in a pure-bred hog sale. Some people get any auctioneer, but this gentleman demanded the best. M. R. Murdock, field man for the Poland China Booster, left today for Fowler, Indiana, to conduct a Poland sale for L. M. McKinney. James G. Watson, ex-secretary of the Aryshire Cattle Breeders’ asso ciation, gave a very interesting lecture on Holstein cattle today. Only thirty-one thousand copies left of Turben's book on “Self Education.” Get your order in early. School turned out. today with three students asleep, Keisling leading by three gourds and two rows. •— SEEK FRIENDS IN HOUR OF NEED “In the hour of need we quickly seek our best friends,” writes Chas Schridd Ward de Wet, 957 73rd Ave Oakland, Cal., “our little boy and girl had a vere dry, rasping cough without phlegm, a cough that chokes and flushes the face of the sufferers like unto convulsions. Foley’s Honey and Tar was a wonderful emergency remedy.” Cases like this give Foley’s Honey and Tar its reputation as the best remedy for coughs and colds. *■' 1 " • ijoxr Chicago Visit at the.
