It is doubtful if u more effective speech was ever made in M a Indiana convention than that of Fred VanNuys who acted as temporary chairman of the democratic convention and made the keynoter. He told in plain words, the failures of the officials in charge of the state house, he attacked the bad laws and he left no loopholes for those whom he attacked. His address was fearless and effective and should 1 be read by every voter. The action of the Fort Wayne Yeomen Homesteads and Mr. 11. E. Parker, the district manager is more than appreciated in this community and whether or not We land the children's school we will always remember tin resolutions adopted and the offers of , their assistance. These things are i only done when inspired by proper , motives and engineered by broad , minded inen and women. We assure these' splendid people that we will in ■ due time acept their kind offers an<J will call upon them to help us make the July Yeomen meeting the biggest . ever held in this country. It would be a wonderful thing if the other Yeomen lodges of Indiana would take similar action to that of Fort Wayne and it would help materially to bring the great home to Indiana. The local committee will sent them copies of the resolutions adopted by the Allen . county homesteads with a request that they do this. It is practical!} agreed that if the school is located in this state it will be at Decatur and the united support of the lo Iges of Indiana would be an eye opener to the board who will eventually decide it. Nothing counts like co-operation and organization and with the aid of the

’ Yeomen of Hooslerdom we can laud the home. The ticket selected by the democrats In state convention la one of the ■ best ever presented to the voters of the state. Governor Ralston was endorsed for United Staes senator; Judge Dan Link of Auburn was named for secretary of state. He is one of the highest grade men of the state, clean and able and would conduct his office with great credit; Robert Bracken of Frankfort is the nominee for auditor, a splendid man; George Dehority of Elwood for treasurer and Daniel Mclntosh of W'orlhingtou for state superintendent have the qualifications which tit them for these places while the candidates for judges are all law yers of real merit and worth. The voters may feel assured that if these men are placed in office they will be faithfully served. The democratic state convention which closed last evening was a sane and sensible one in which the leaders stood firm for such corrections of the mismanagement as are posible. They favored the return to the counties the powers to fix valuations and to decide for themselves how and when they diould spend their own money withnit the expense of the Indianapolis ‘bosses,” they are in favor of a new tax law and that fact alone ought to iweep them into office next Novem ber; they believe the terrific cost of the highway commission is without reason or justification and they urondse to remedy that evil, they favor the abolishment of many of the boards and commissions- and she com bining of others. During the past ive years the cost of Indiana govern nent has been boosted seventeen mil'ion dollars a year and this money argely spent in employing unnecessary help. Every taxpayer should •ead carefully the platform adopted or it was made after much careful consideration and with the expects ions of having to make good on it ifter election. If you want relief rom high taxes and extravagance here is just one way to get it and hat is by changing the administration it Indianapolis. e IUNE WEDDING WAS ANNOUNCED (Continued from page one) ■on Carroll.

Many of them leaving for their homes today w’ere gratified that insurgency had die out and said the party now presents a "united, confident and determined” front. With the Republicans also claiming a solid formation to go into the November battle, the issues were being clearly cut. The Democrats stand upon a nuniber of planks which they say will reduce state government expenses. One is for repeal of the existing laws in regard to taxes and enactment of the one previously in effect. The Republicans stand on their record and would repeal or amend the Indiana utility law to make the Public Service Commission “more responsive to the peoples’ welfare.” 3 • DIAZ TO JOIN THE REVOLUTION (Continued from page one) leaders of different states in Mexico, is fast gaining strength,’ the announcement stated.

Mr. Schwab will have general charge of the discussions and judging contests. It will be well worth the while of any farmer to go on the tour and learn what methods are practiced by successful hog breeders of Adams coun ty. Everyone is invited. e SAYS INDIANA BLUE SKY LAW IS INADEQUATE TO PROTECT PUBLIC TODAY Indianapolis, June 2. —"Our Indiana blue sky law is inadequate to protect the public from solicitation by the rankest kind of wild cat stock selling literature that is now coming out of Texas, Oklahoma and other states today.” This statement was made in an interview today by G. F. Olwin, secretary of the Indianapolis Better Business Bureau. “To my mind,” he said, "there is an effective way to curb the economic waste of wild cat promotions; First, the public must be educated to investigate all stock selling enterprises before they invest and; second, a means of making such a investigation without much trouble must be provided. “It is estimated that approximately five hundred millions of dollars are taken from the people of the U. S. annually by crooked promoters. It means that in a city of 20,000 population, 8100,000 is lost each year to illegitimate business. "If this amount were injected into • the trade of the community and tiirn- ’ ed over only four times a year it would total an increase in business of 8400f 000 for the first year alone. Over a period of years the accumulated wealth and the increased business pos sible from this saving becomes stag gering.” 14 YEAR OLD BOY . . . | TRAVELED 600 MILES ON TOTAL OF 20 CENTS Seymour.
