. 0 Dodge Brothers MOTOR CAR The evenness of performance scfoften remarked in Dodge Brothers Motor Cars is due. in no small part, to the thoroughness with which each unit is inspected during the process of manufacture and assembly. A trained staff of 800 experts is employed in this work alone, and approximately 5285 individual inspections are made on each car. So exacting and rigid are the standards applied to these inspections that the slightest variation either in workmanship or material is instantly discovered and rejected. Dodge Brothers are almost over-scrupu-lous in their constant aim to make each car as sound and perfect as is humanly possible. • • The Price is $945.00 delivered T. J.

The campaign 1* closing and indi-J cations point to a great democratic ! victory in Indiana. Adams county! must do her full part and we believe will. Workers should report for duty at the polls and continue their efforts until the polls close Tuesday evening at six o’clock. The democratic ticket in Adams county is composed of men whom you can trust. Vote for them in the second column on your ballot. They are good citizens, deserving and promise you good service, lower taxes and their very best efforts all the time. Business experts are authority for the statement that within a week or two all but four of the leading automobile manufactories will close down for the winter. More normalcy. And you will have more and more of this until the tariff law is repealed and some efforts made to secure a foreign market which will take care of our over production. Every democrat be lieves in a tariff which will protect and assist this nation in paying the debt but not in a tariff which pre vents us from doing any thing. The great rally at Berne Thursday evening seems to have taken the "pep” out of the Adams County Witness and some of those who had been making big claims as to results. The enthusiasm displayed there is evidence of what will happen next Tuesday and the Witness may have to change the recent prediction that after election the voters would forget who had been the democratic candidate for congress. The ovation given Mr. Tyndall was one he will never forget,. coming as it did in his own county and from the people who! have known him all his life. During the past two weeks we have published the exact amount of state taxes paid by the various townships this year in comparison with four years ago under the old law. In each township there is a decided increase and, in some of them, the amount is ! double. The total for the county is

$122,965.12 this year as compared to $68,574.59 four years ago. Next year it is to be higher still for the state tax board has so decided and announced. It will continue to go higher, unless the law is repealed and the power taken from the board which n<>w' runs things in the state. It’s time to change things. Next Tuesday is the day. The state highway commission spent more money last year than ALL the taxes collected by the state of Indiana for ALL purposes the last year of the Ralston administration. This I

commission expended more than SB,000,000 in a single year. Os this sura $4,400,000 was for maintenance, alone, of the 3,500 miles of state roads. This is an average of $1,250 per mile. This maintenance charge does not include new construction, paving, engineering or office expense. Investigation has shown that some of the best main I tained and most traveled COUNTY I i highways in Indiana, cared for and patroled under a democratic highway law, are maintained for an average of I S2OO per mile. The taxpayers of the j state have a right to know why it i • costs six times as much to maintain i I

a mile of state highway. In some counties the cost of maintenance was: more than $2,000 per mile. The average cost of maintaining county roads 1 in Indiana is $l6O per mile. Almost any county by doubling this sum could maintain gravel roads as good as the ‘ state maintains at an average cost of $1,250 per mile. NO HUNTING ALLOWED Hunting or trespassing on the John H.
