Senator Johnson as was predicted and believed was renominated by the republicans of California in Tuesday's election which assures him of another six years in the senate. With the cool fall days approaching and no coal in the bin you'll be convinced that this wiggly-wobbiy attitude of the administration in trying to settle the coal and rail strikes is causing a lot of discomfort and extra expense.

those,who want their share of it will do wise by using the advertising columns of the Daily Democrat. You can reach 16,000 persons a day with ' one ad in the home paper. W. A. Klepper in an article in the “People’s Voice Column'* in this paper gives expression to a number of worthy suggestions (or improvements and betterments lb Decatur and tho community. Read the article and express your opinion. The mayor of Wabash refused to send prisoners to the penal farm at Pugnaville charging that the institution was “full of bugs.” The report is being investigated and state officials have remarked that residing at a penal farm was not “a pink tea affair,”

Indiana democrats opened the state campaign today with a big meeting at Huntington at which Former Governor Samuel L. Ralston made the key note address. From now on activities in political circles will liven up, the election being just a little over two months away. In the meantime don’t forget to register. Congressmen seeking re-election can hardly have the nerve to ask a “vote of confidence in the administrai tion,” as congress is about the worst enemy the president has to contend witlf. They oppose almost every proposition he advances and do the things he is opposed to. The passage of the bonus measure is against the I wish of the president, while the re-

fusal to give him power to seise railroads and mines are one of the things he desires most of all at this time. Congress is not backing the president and can not claim so. — Bluffton Banner. The senate will pass the soldiers’ bonus bill probably this week, it de pending on when the speeches will end and a vote can be taken. That's good news fqr the soldiers and veterans, but the tear that they will not get the compensation is expressed because President Harding has let it be known that he will veto the bill. The latest means of paying the bonus is to use the interest paid by the allied countries on the billions loan* ed to them by this government during the war. That would be a nice way to do it, the only hitch being the possibility of the foreign countries

not paying the interest, which now amounts to millions of dollars a year. Indiana is going to build a new reformatory at Pendleton and the cost of constructing the building is now being discussed on every hand. Staunch republican papers are taking the governor to task for wanting to use the highest priced brick obtainable in its construction. As one leading republican paper remarked, a reformatory was no place to spend vast sums of money in trying to make the buildings and grounds the most beautiful in the state. A reformatory as we understand it, is a place of correction and not a show place. Cut out the fancy brick and save the money. ■ • MANY ARRESTED IN RAIDS MADE AT CELINA, O.

Chris High, Rockford George Lillich, Rockford. “The big haul of suspects was made Saturday morning. At 6 o'clock the quintette was marched up town and placed behind the bars. “For the past two weeks five men, I wo detectives from Detroit and three state sleuths, have been camping at Edgewater Park. The five visitors wore plain clothes and gave no clue whatever to their identity. They were here to fish and recreate and so nobody gave them any special attention. “It is further said, however, the five men tost no time in becoming acquainted with several well known places along the shores of the Grand Reservior and also with some of the town residents, suspected of buying and selling liquor. The out of town visitors frequented the haunts of the men suspected of bootlegging, gained their confidence and an insight in the way things are being done and then Saturday made known their office and their business, with the result that the fore--1 going arrests followed. “Immediately after the first haul the dry detectives departed on another errand, going in quest of suspects. “State prohiition inspectors - and federal officers made the investigation at Celina and brought about the arrests. “The hearings of the men charged with the grave offense of defying the laws of the state and the federal authority was begun at 1:30 Saturday afternoon. “Seven charges were made against Ed Peak for selling liquor Saturday afternoon when he was brought before J. L. Morrow, J. P. He pleaded guilty and was fined $1,590. Scotty Johnson, who was brought before J. L. Morrow, J.
