G’WIN BE A GOOD LESSON Some one used to tell a story about a colored man convicted of tnurdet and about to pay the penalty. He had been led to the scaffold, the noose placed about his neck and the black cap over Ills pyes, when he was asket' ir he had anything to say. and prompt ly replied: "This am certainly g’wit: be a good lesson for me.” We are re minded of the story by the statement of a man named Mayfield, recently ar rested for complicity in the Panama, 111., bank robbery, and who has published a statement in which he says: “In conclusion 1 wish to add that from this time on I will vote the deni ocratic ticket as nothing like this ever happened to me while they were in power.. As everybody had mpney there was no use of sticking up banks therefore no innocent man would have to suffer tor it. Hence, getting at the bottom of this, the republican party is to blame.

MAY HARNESS TIPPECANOE (I'nlteil Press Service*. Monticello. lnd., Feb. I—(Special to Daily Democrat)—Visions of the largest hydro-electric plant in Indiana and one of the largest in the middle west were entertained here today. Head waters of the Tippecanoe river will be used by the Indiana Hydro Electric corporation to make the vision a reality. The river will be harnessed to a dam thirty feet high and a quarter of a mile long. Over it will flow enough water to furnish 2,400.000 kilowatt hours of electrical energy a year —enough electricity to light 30,000 homes if it were used for that purpose. The electricity generated with power from the dam will be used tor lighting homes and operating indus:rial enterprises in northwestern Indiana —in Attica, Frankfort, Logansport, Lafayette and other cities. Backers of the project claim it will furnish the cheapest motive power in the state. A boom has already been started here for the erection of factories to take advantage of this cheap rate. According to Harry Reid, president of the Interstate Public Service company, and vice president and general manager ot the Indiana Hydro-electric company,charges for the electricity will cover the return on investments, interests and bonds and operating expenses and taxes.

THE FIVE POWER TREATY IS APPROVED (Continued from page one) world yearning after peace. Rounding It out was another treaty banning submarines as attackers of commerco and the use of poison gas In wars. Hughes laid the treaty before the fifth plenary session of the conference shortly after the opening at 11 o'clock. Under the treaty, the three great naval powers—the United States, Great Britain and Japan—will scrap 68 great capital ships of a total tonnage of 1,861.643. The smaller number of old ships to be junked by France and Italy contribute to make these figures even higher. These ships Include the capital ship building program of the great naval powers, the realization of the dreams of navy men, seeking to make their country dominant In the ever faster race of naval competition. The treaty starts a ten year naval hol^av—witH a few exceptions—ln capital ship building, dating from November 12, 1921, when the conference was opened. The completed treaty announced today is mainly the same as the original American proposals. It was n victory for the United States, heartily shared in by tho other nations and much of the weariness that lias slowly crept over Hughes during the long months of negotiations seemed to leave him as he presented the treaty. The treaty provides for a 5-5-3-1, 75-1.75 ratio in capital ship tonnage between the United States, Great Britain, Japan, France and Italy, respectively. The replacement tonnage basis for these respective powers is 525.000; 525.000; 315,000; 175.000, ami 175,000 tons. Ironclad, technical rules and regulations are embodied in the pact to see that the ships to be scrapped are actually sent to the junk heap. Detailed charts are also included in accordance with which old capital ships can be replaced after the ten year holiday. The powers agree in the treaty that if during its duration the national security of one of the nations is threatened there will be a conference of the signatory powers, at the request of the affected nation, to consider changes in the pact to meet the situation.

It is also provided in the treaty—a tact not fully known before —that the United States, in consultation with the other powers, shall call another conftfrc-nce of the signatory nations as soon as possible after eight years front the coming into force of the treaty to consider any needed changes in the pact, “in view of possible technical and scientific developments.” Whenever any signatory power becomes engaged in war affecting the naval defense of its national security, the treaty specifies, such power may suspend for the period of hostilities. upon notice to the other contracting nations, the • major part of its obligtions under the treaty. After the war, the contracting powers will meet in conference to determine any necessary modifications in the treaty. The treaty lasts for 15 years, the date of its expiration being Dec. 31. 1936. Its automatic continuance, however, is provided for. If none of the contracting powers gives notice to the United States of its intention to terminate the treaty, the pact "shall continue in force until the expiration of two years front the date on which notice of termination shall be given by one of the contracting powers, whereupon the treaty shall terminate as regards all the contracting powers.” The treaty includes an agreement J between the United States, Great Britain and Japan to maintain the 1 status in fortifications and naval bases on their Pacific islands, while other clauses place restrictions on the size of capital ships and tytxiliary fighting craft and their armament. There was also announced at the session today an important separate treaty between the five powers prohibiting the use of submarines against, merchant shipping and pledging the powers against the use of poison gas in war. Chapter H, part two, covers scrapping rules: I. E. vessels must be rendered unfit for combatant service j either by sinking, breaking up, or tar-! get use. Italy and France are allow-! ed to eacli retain two ships for gun aery or torpedo school practice. In' cases of scrapping of a vessel subsequently, this scrapping must be und-j ertaken not later than the date of the completion of its successor, must be made impotent within six months and completely scrapped within 18; months. Chapter 11, part throe, gives rules for replacement based upon substitution of new craft when the existing ships become twenty years of age. A j subsection says "In case of loss or accidental destruction of capital ships or aircraft carriers, they may be immediately replaced. - ’ Replacement and scrapping tableß

Says Excess of Hydrochloric Acid is Cause of Indigestion A well known authority states that stomach trouble and indigestion are nearly always due to acidity—acid stomach —and not, as most folks believe, from a lack of digestive juices. He states than an exces of hydrochloric acid in the stomach retards digestion and starts food fermentation, then our meals sour like garbage in a can, forming acrid fluids and gases which inflate the stomach like a toy balloon. We then get that heavy, lumpy feeling in the chest, we eructate sour food, belch gas, or have heartburn, flatulence, water-brash, or nausea. He tells us to lay aside all digestive aids and instead, get from any pharmacy four ounces of Jad gaits and take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast while it is effervescing, and furthermore to continue this for one week. While relief follows the first dose, it is important to neutralize the acidity, remove the gas-making mass, start the liver, stimulate? the kidneys and thus promote a free flow of pure digestive juice. Jad Salts is inexpensive and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and sodium phosphate. This harmless salts is used by thousands of people for stomach trouble with excellent results.
