Entered at the postofflce at Decatur, Indiana, as second-class matter. Big business has won another victory in shelving the bonus bill in congress. After considering the sales tax, the postage and check stamp tax and several other plans they have decided that the demands of the veterans are not general and that the better politics is to turn them down. They will hear a noise soon which will frighten them badly however and it is likely that the proposed bonus will again come to the front. The proposed third party for the farmers will perhaps do nothing but make the old parties consider the interests of the agriculturists and very likely that is just the purpose of it. Third parties do not last long or get far and the leaders of the bloc know this as well as any one. It would seem wiser for them to secure what they want through one of the two leading parties and then work tor the success of that party. Senator Thomas Taggart, unable to attend the editorial meeting at Indianapolis this w'eek sent a wonderfc: letter and the bigness and broodnestt of this man was shown in his attitude on the arms conference ratification for he urges the democratic members of the senate to assist in that actiop, quite the contrary to the vicious furht put up by the republicans in the senate when similar opportunity was presented two years ago.

The meeting of the democratic edi tors of Indiana which closed last evening was one of the most enthut' iastic ever held in Indiana and in point of attendance easily excelled any in recent years. More than live hundred people enjoyed the banquet and cheered the speakers. The asso ciation, now forty-two years old, is recognized as the strongest of its kind in the middle west and the sum nier and winter meetings are events of great interest. While tho battle between New and Beveridge for the republican nomina tion is attracting considerable attention there is likewise great interest manifested in who will be elected as 1 the democratic candidate for repub-1 lican leaders realize that under present conditions and with a bitter party CHANGEWTiFE WOMAN’STRIAL Proof That Lydia E.

11 scrap on there is a strong probability of the democratic candidate being elected. Among those being prominently mentioned for the honor are William H. O'Brien of Lawrenceburg and Henry Barnhart of Rochester, both splendid men, qualified to lead the party and to serve the people well if sent to the senate. With the selection of either and W’ulter Myers as state chairman Indiana will likely swing back to the democrats next November, this at least being the opinion of the best political guessers in the state. j.... ■ The President made his appeal to the senate to ratify the treaties as persuasive as he could frame it. His heart was in his plea, and no one can doubt that he is ready to stake the success of his administration upon the results of the Washington conference. in his earnestness and in his obvious desire to placate the senate, he assured his hearers that none of the objections which were urged against the League of Nations can be raised to the present treaties. Yet they undoubtedly will be. And the leading arguments to be made for the now treaties will be precisely the ones that were offered in vain in the senate in 1920 in favor of the Ver saiiles treaty. Upon the President the shadow of that recent past evidently rests. His direct and almost personal appeal to senators, quite unexampled in presidential messages, has the effect of beseeching them not to be so unreasonable, so captious, so partisan as they were two years ago. The indications today are, hap pily, that the senate will take a broader and tyore patriotic attitude though some of the members wil have to turn an exceedingly sharp corner to do it. That democratic senators will take an unholy glee in demonstrating the inconsistencies of Hie republicans is certain, human nature and political man being what they are. But it is to be hoped that, in the end, no merely factious oppo sitiou will prevent or too long delay the ratification which the President, almost on his knees, begs of the senate.—New York Times.

HUNDREDS of service MEN AT SHERMAN I ulted Pre»x Service. . Camp Sherman, Chillicothe, Ohio, Feb. 18. —(Special to Daily Democrati —War heroes back in Camp Shermat today were engaged in studying proses sions which will enable them to g< out in the world within a year’s tim< and earn a living. Paid at the rate of SIOO a month am’ given free board and lodging, several hundred ex-service men were student? of Uncle Sam's first army vocationa' university which fits men to become plumbers, mechanics, tailors, shoe maker, laundcrers, sign painters farmers and electricians. The ex-service men, dubbed “train cos” have taken to the vocationa school idea and though the program for their education is rather meagre at present, they are working hard. The school at present is a ponderous (thing. Large camp buildings, being used as schoolrooms are considerable distance apart and it is a long walk between classes. This difficulty, together with the fact that when the school started instructors were forced to easy with the “train-ees” resulting in what looked like inefficiency to the | outsider, has resulted in strong con | denination of the school. I authorities in charge believe that in six months the situation will be entirely changed and that critics of today will thoroughly approve of the school. Red tape in Washington in getting appropriations, has iuterferred with plans for the development of the school. Some “train-ees” who were dissatisfied with the manner in which efforts were made to get them to work learning a profession also caused criticism to be heaped on the school. There are between two and three hundred “train-ees” here. All are discharged service men, but there is no military aspect to the school. | The first batch of students to arrive were mostly from cities. Some of them disliked the quiet life. Shortly a batch of “train-ees” from agricultural communities will lie brought in and with their arrival it |s believed the morale of the entire student ln>dy will be strengt Uened. _—: • AruoiaTMENT OF EXECUTOR Notice ■ls hereby given, that the undei’Ktgncd has been appointed executor of tlje estate of .1 Henry Wefel, late of Adams county, deceased. The estate is probably solvent. WILLIAM If. WBFBL, Executor. February 4, 1922.
