The congressmen who wish to fol low President Harding are worried because he left Washington on a fish ing trip without issuing orders as tc ' what action should be taken on the bo | nus bill. Why not ask Mr. Mellon' He seems to be the man behind the! gun in most ot these questions. He arranged the cash for the -railroads and he will say when a bill is present ed that suits hirik Now honest, boys isn't the real oh jection to the result of the tournament the fact that the Decatur team won the district championship? The Blufi ton papers insinuate there is some thing else —some mysterious, terrible something else but they refuse to tell what it is and some way we have the feeling that they never will tell.

1 ' never gain too much knowledge and |it will not injure any of us to get th£ information which these experts will bring to us. There will be exhibits, lectures, talks and oher meaps of publicity on u very important subject. Don't overlook this. Get in the game and help make the campaign a real success, It’s a good thing for the fanner, merchant and citizen. So far no candidates from the eighth district have filed for the democratic nomination for congress. Tn this county John W. Tyndall and David J. Schwartz have been mentioned but so far as known neither has filed or authorized the announcement of their candidicy. It's a good year boys, the field seems clear thought several are being discussed over the district. Wo would like to see this county send a man to congress and the proper effort right now will probably do that very thing.

James Mann, one of the republican leaders of congress in discussing the departure of the Hoosier wonder. Will Hays from the cabinet said: "As postmaster general Hays has not been worth one five cent piece. I for one am glad to see him go. His main suit has been longdistance telephoning.'' Mann must know him for among his many other accomplishments Willie is the world's greatest telephone! - . Who in this state has not heard of him with two or three phones about him answering calls and issuing or i ders? This was a good publicity ; ' stunt when he was serving his polljtical party but most of them had supnosed that he had diyosed of this habit and got down to real business, j Evidently he clung to it, from the Mann statement. The purchase of the controlling in | Iterest in the Clover Leaf railroad is i I of course of considerable interest to the people of this city and there is much discussion of just how this sale will effect this city. For many years there has been talk of making this the terminal between Frankfort and Toledo and it was expected that some work towards that end would be start-1 ed during the year. Whether the new deal will delay or hasten this or the new owners entirely discard Hie plans prepared has not been made public. The Van Sweringen brothers Orin and Matis were a few years ago selling papers on the streets of Geneva. have made rapid progress in the .railway business and jumped into prominence when they bought the Nickle Plate in 1916. They are. big business men of Cleveland. men who do things and it is believed that the addition of the Clover I oaf will mean much to that line, which by the way has developed into a real money earner. Mr. Ross will continue as manager and his re ports of recent years proves his ability so dftie jib better than could any thing else. Developments will be watched with keen interest by those

This moring was devoted to hearing evidence from a large umber of iocal citizens who witnessed the games and who were questioned as to the refereeing and to their facts as ■barged in numerous newspaper articles during the past few days. The referees, Mr. Hale, of Daleville, and Mr. Humke of North Manchester arrived during the morning for examinition and the schedule as arranged or this afternoon was: John M. •'rench and Coach Rippe, Bluffton, 1 /clock; Clyde Hendricks, Monroe, 1:45; Edgar Haffner, Geneva, 2:30, E.

He will iccure the facts and evidence and urn it over to tlie board of control vho will decide the mater. The hearing is the results of •liarges preferred in a resolution idopted at a meeting of the six princi>als, held at Bluffton last Monday eveling. During the tourney tlie newspaper men and coaches generally igreed as to the good work of the referees, especially that of Mr. Hale out after the finals, there seemed to be 1 reversal of opinion and the losing ‘.earns agreed that the refereeing was unfair when Decatur was in the game. The resolution as adopted follows: The principals of the following schools: BLUFFTON MONROE LIBERTY CENTER BERNE GENEVA. PETROLEUM 'iave adopted the following resolutions: We. the principals concerned with ’he Decatur tournament hereby enter >ur objections to tlie referees of said tournament, especially to Mr. Humke. \ number of conipeten referees and Toadies have emphatically declared hat the refereeing of the above mentioned tournament was very unsatisfactory and decidedly contradictory to clean sportsmanship. Throughout he tournament the referring both ifficials. Mr. Humke and Mr. Hale, favored Decatur. Mr. Hale’s refereeing, except in tlie games in which Decatur was concern rd, was generally satisfactory. Mr. Hale on Stand. Referee Hale was on the witness stand from 11:30 to 12:30 and told a straight story. He has refereed four years and had charge of the Marion tournament last year. His work has been very satisfactory. He was formerly a teacher but now works in the Remy Electric works at Anderson. His home is at Daleville. He said that he was not in any way approached by any one here, that no objections were offered to his work during the tournament so far as he knew and that he was very much surprised to hear of the trouble. He said he bid never been asked to throw a game in his life. He was very gentlemanly in his attitude and seemed desirous of being absolutely fair. Mi. Huttipke wired that he had missed the train and could not arrive until 2:30. Many Local Witnesses. Forty or fifty local people school officials, Father Peters of the St. Joseph school, air.

All the local people expressed their opinion as to the fairness of the tournament and the work of the referees. Mr. Allman was convinced that the treatment of the visitors by the local school authorities and the handling of the crowd was I first class.

Last Spoonful Same as the l*srst fov-.’£% ? '^ Calumet is made under such exacting conditions — packed in such a scientific manner, that its leavening strength and purity never vary. It retains its original strength for months after leaving the factories. When you tip the can to get the last spoonful you know your baking will turn out all right—the last spoonful is the same as the first. This uniform quality oi CALUMET BAKING POWDER is cause for its big demand. Housewives know they can depend upon the results obtainedthat climatic conditions or temperature cannot deteriorate its positive leavening power. When you buy baking powder remember these facts—that a uniform leavencr means bakings that do not varv in quality—that Calumet is uniform. A pound can of Calumet contains full 16 oz. Some baking ;x>wders come in 12 ounce instead of 16 ounce cans. Be sure you get a lb. when you want it
