1 Candidates for committeemen must file their declarations by Saturday, April Ist. Candidates for all other offices must also file by that time while candidates for delegates to the state convention muy file up to April 12th. Another governor has gone wrong. At least Robertson o( Oklahoma is charged with accepting $25,000 as a bribe following the check-up of a bank in that state. The general clean-up In the election two years ago seems to be proving to have been "dirty" in a number of instances. Samuel Blythe, writing for the Saturday Evening Post this week, points out and attempts to prove that there is no difference really betwen the republican and democratic party, except the desire of those who are out to be in. He is wrong, for the republicans are far from believing in the Jeffersonian principle that tho people should rule. Senator Beveridge in a speech at Eolith Bend last night gave his fourth and final notice to Senator New that unless ho agrees with him as to a reasonable limit of expenditures, he will take a new means of obtaining it. The campaign is beginning to reach a breaking point and the last few weeks of it will have sufficient fireworks ft is predicted to please

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT. FRIDAY. MARCH 24. 1022

t Albert J. Beveridge, one of the rer, publican candidates for the nomlnv r tlon for United States senator will e deliver on address here Sunday afta ernoon, April 2nd, it Is announced, 1 but It will be a religious talk on the Bible instead of politics and those who have heard the address admit • It is a worth-while lecture. J -ai-L-g* 1 -- ■ ZL-l'J i Because a few properties have been i sold in each county at a figure equqnl > to or higher than the assessment that t is no sign that all the rest of the ' property in the state could be sold that way. We expect there Is a lot of it that the owner would be plumb tickled to dispoßO of at the valuation now on the assessors' books; In fact, we know it. And now a coal strike will furnish head lines for a few weeks at least. Evidenty there is no chance for getting together soon and It may be months. Most people can't understand why a strike should be called now for there is really not much use for coal with spring at hand and so many fattories running but part time or not at all. The country seems to be in for a big strike and taken from every angle this seems to be about as good a time as any, for each side of the triangle, miners, operators and government. Considerable is being said in republican newspapers just now about the results in the recent congression al election in Maine, where the republican majority of 20,000 of two years ago was reduced to 6.000. In consid ering all this it should be remembered that the democrats have but little organization in that district and , that it is considered rock-ribbed. The loss of the g. o. p. this year just hap pened because of the disappointment of a good many in the results during ' I the past few years, and there will be more evidence of this during the next , year. i - - U-LJSg The state tax board has taken a l new plan for proving the claim that property ought te be appraised at as ] much or more than it was three years ' ago. They have prepared a list oi property sales in some twenty counties which show an average higher than the assessed valuation and this is set up as the big reason for holding . up the total. Every one understands t that most of the sales of real estate i during the past year have been trades ! and the values placed thereon always * higher than the real cash value. Properties bought for cash during the . past year have been those wanted | for some particular reason, which in 1 creased the amount which could be 1 obtained. The sales total just now is far from being a just foundation for assesments and would be more or less so any time. Evidently She state hoard is determined to make the total valuation at least as high as it was before, one way or another, but if lliey do It will he some time before they have another opportunity, we feel sure.

RAILWAY RUMOR I That Five Roads, Including Clover Leaf, Will Form , Gigantic Merger Deal. FLAMS BEING MADE For Railway System to Rival the Pennsylvania—One Company Denies It. United Press Service. New York, N. Y„ Mar. 24—(Special to Daily Democrat) —The Dow Jones financial news agency announced today that E. N. Brown, chairman of the I’ere Marquette Railroad company board, has flatly denied that any negotiations between his company and owners of the Ann Arbor railroad have taken place for the purpose of the Pere Marquette's squiring the latter road. The matter never had been seriously considered by the Pere Marquette directors, he said, and was definitely at an end some months ago. Merger of five railroad lines to form a gigantic combination rivaling the Pennsyvania and New York Central systems had been considered possible in Wall street, following the statement yesterday of Newman Erl), president of tho Ann Arbor Railway company, concerning the proposed Pere Marquette-Ann Arbor consolidation. The new system, when finally completed, it is reported, would include the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western; New Y’ork, Chicago & St. Louiss; the Toledo, St. Louis & Western; Pere Marqquette and Ann Arbor. COMPANY DOING NICE BUSINESS Dan Neff, manager of the Newcastle office of the American Security company and general instructor in the sys tem of bookkeeping and managing office affairs, was here this week and assisted Fred Kolter, manager of the local office of the American Security company, in opening the books of the company. He found the local office conducted in a most systematic manner and complimented Mr. Kolter for the headway made. Mr. Kolter announces that the Security company is making loans every day and is receiving many applications about the loan plan. The new loan company is located in the Bowers building on West Monroe street.

IVet health, the entire family of Louis Gingras, 9 Harrison A Providence, R. 1., are an eloquent tribute to the powers of TanC the greatest family medicine the world has ever known.

"l ve put Tanlae to the test four times right in my own family and it hasn’t failed me once,” declared Mr. Gingras. "My wife, my sou and my daughter, as well as myself, have all been built up from a half-sick, run-down, worn-out set of people into a healthy, happy family brimful of new life and energy." And the experience of this family is only typical of thousands of others whose statements are on file in the Tanlae offices. Hardly a day passes that does not bring scores of such messages of praise from every part of the United States and Canada from families where mother, father, son and daughter have all found health, contentment and the joys of living through simply taking a course of Tanlae. Take, for instance, the case of John Widner, 1571 Roosevelt Ave., Los Angeles. Calif, who Rays: “My wife myself and little boy are now as healthy, happy family as you will ever see —and it’s all due to Tanlae.” Or that of Mrs. John Marquis and her family of sixteen living in Manchester, N. H., at 252 Belmont St. She says: “Tanlae has been the only medicine used in our house for two years and it has kept every one of the sixteen here* in the best of health.” In Chicago. Frank R. Richards, of 141 South Wood St., writes: “We will never be without Tanlae in our house after the remarkable way it has built up my wife, niy son and myself to where we are. the very picture of health.” Representative of New York is the case of Chas. E. Van Colt's
