' of “Jimmy’' Fleming, of Portland, who was selected at the Munclo meeting to lead the hosts in this district. Mr Fleming has bad experience in handling party matters and will give the democrats a line administration. The plan now is to elect John W. Tyndall, the democratic candidate for congress, and thus keep the republicans from a big split two years hence. I The grand old party is tiring of >ll Vestal and would have much preferred another this campaign, but the right man refused to come out this time. When he does come it will make a bad split in the party, as Vestal likes the climate in Washington and will not give up easily. The best plan will be to elect Tyndall this year, that Vestal may become acclimated to Indiana before his own party has a chance to down him,— Bluffton Banner. —> . ■

JEW DEVICE SETS STANDARD FOR SMOOTHNESS OF ROADS Hew smooth should a contractor rea1 onably be expected to make the suricc of a road? Engineers of the Buea of Public Roads of the United ttates Department of Agriculture have 'evfsed an instrument for settling this 'uostion. When passed over the road t, indicates the slightest uneveness or -oughness. The instrument will be used to test ho surface on different types of road >f good workmanship, thus detcrminn a standard which contractors can >e held to. Smoothness in a road is, >f course, desirable for the comfort >f travelers, but it is also for other equally important reasons, say officials >f the bureau. The vertical movenent of a motor vehicle caused by •oughness wears the machines and reIttires more power of the engine. In connection with experiments dong this line another instrument has been devised. Attached to a. vehicle ’his determines the amount of iolting w vertical movement caused by different degrees of roughness or univencss in the surfacing..
