DF.CATHR DAILY DEMOCRAT, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1922

No Thrills or Red Fire in Campaign Yet Indianapolis, Oct. 10.—Thus far the campaign In Indiana has contained few thrills, less red Are has been burned than has been consumed at a similar point In a contest for many years. There's a reason. Through hitter experience campaign managers have finally learned that all the spellbinding in the world will do no good If the electorate cannot vote. Many have been the times when one party or another has lamented the fact, after an election, that it did not have all its voters registered. Not this year. More attention hns been paid to registration than ever before. Nearly all the elaborate ami Intricate machinery of both parties has been bent in one direction—that of registering the voters. The party captains feel that after the men and women of the state have been made eligible to vote it is time enough to tell them how to vote. Therefore, with the close of registration things can be expected to happen. The almost important and least spectacular part of the campaign is over. The least important and most spectacular part is now starting. Difficulty has been experienced by both parties in registering their voters. The populace has been apathetic. The Indiana contest may be one of the most important in the country, but is safe to say that there is more interest in Washington than is shown here. Without attempting to say at this stage of the game who has the advantage, it can safely be said that the democrats are showing more activity this year than in many prvlous years. There have' been more little precinct meetings and there has been more of an effort to register the voters. On the other hand, it might be remarked that the democrats would have to go a whale of a long way to show as much activity and interest as the republicans have shown in previous years. The opening of the Ohio camnaign by Albert J. Beveridge has created more of a stir than any other event ii a dull contest. The den.e.r-tt? see in it a drawing away from the progressive tendencies usually characterizing the republican candidate. They argue that the progressive voters who made possible Beveridge's nomination will not relish his close association with President Harding, The republicans see in it an indication that talk of dissention in the party has been groundless and that, the O. O. P. is one harmonious whole. o Thrilling Mystery Play, “The Bat,” at Ft. Wayne “The Bat" to be seen at the Majestic theatre Ft. Wayne for three nights starting Friday, Oct. 13 and a iZatinee on Saturday is a thrilling mystery play thtoulgh which there runs a vein of comedy that is irresistibly funny. One moment you are I thrilled until your hair fairly stands :on end and the next, you are plunged in a perfect paroxysm of laughter. “The Bat" played for more than | two years in New York. In Chicago, “The Bat" scored a run of over one solid year, something no other play have ever done in the history of that city. Moreover, in both cities, week after week, the play was seen by an diences that taxed the absolute capacity of the theatres in which it was being given. “The Bat” is presented under the management of Wagenrals and Kemper, known for years in the theatrical world for their success in producing successes. It has been handsomely staged and is acted with consummate skill by an excellent company with includes: Miss Fanchon Campbell, Helen Joy, Ernest Pollock and I Gordon Eldrid of the Chicago comMAJESTIC THEATER FORT WAYNE 3 Days Commencing Friday Oct. 13 Saturday Matinee 50c to $1.50 The Chicago Cast in THE DRAMATIC SMASH ■ MAIL ORDERS NOW Prices, Evenings, Main Floor.. .?2.00 Balcony $1.50 and $1.00; Gallery 50c Plus Tax.

fy Is the Spot and Satisfies A pany and several others who figured in the record making runs in other cities. o Minnesota Farmer Opposes New Road Building Project St. Paul, Minn., Oct. 10.—Entrenched behind a barricade of stones and logs with a shotgun, Michael Whalen today defied the whole world to encroach on his land. Whalen's farm happened to be in the way of a road building project. Tomorrow morning the crucial mo-

ment will arrive. A crew of the state highway department will make the first advance, endeavoring to continue highway construction toward Rosemont, under the ruling of a court decision. Whether the court order of condemnation is sufficient to warrant action against the threats and re marks of Whalen today was a matter of conjecture. Whalen is there with his shotgun and the highway crews are there with their graders. Agricultural Department Makes Wheat Estimate Washington, Oct. 10.—Estimates for the wheat crop on October 1 were placed at 810,123,000 bushels by the department of agriculture today.

Kokomo —A good sized healthy meal may be bought in Germany for 20 cents according to A. Anspacht who just returned from abroad Terre Haute —Hereafter a penalty will be imposed if vehicles with their loads weight over 15,000 pounds, the city council decided. Wonderful Sport Records Were Made During 1922 By Henry L. Farrell (Uunited Press Sports Editor) New York, Oct. 10..—With the exception of some more football and a little early winter boxing. 1922 has about closed its sport record. The closing year has not only kept up with the past, but it developed I even more remarkable records and more notable achievements that have gone on the books since the war, when sport began is wonderful revival.

He al so earned the world's championship by defeating Gerald Patterson, the bidder of the British title. Mlle. Leng len’s outstanding feat was her defeat of Mrs. Molla Mallory, the American champion at Wimbledon. Gene Surazen won the top rank among the golfers when he won the national open and the professional championships, the first time one player had won both titles. Sweetser distinguished -himself by winning the amateur title from the greatest field that ever competed for it. In winning every start and copping lhe intercollegiate championship in record time, the Naval Academy eight stamped itself as the best crew on the water and Walter Hoover, the Duluth oarsman, in winning the Ameri•an title and the Diamond Sculls in England won the individual honors Johnny Weismuller and Helen Wainright made so many records that no one approached them on the year's work in the water. . 0 — MEXICO IN COMMERCE Mexico City, Mexico —The Mexican government is preparing a mercantile directory which will be completed shortly, according to an announcement by the department of commerce.
