Kansas City, Vo, Read the advertisements in the Daily Democrat and trade with those merchants who thus invite you. They put their cards on the table by telling you what they have and what it costs and that makes the* best kind of deal. If the republican state committee of Indiana will just meet occasionally they will make it easy for the democrats next year. The more some things are discussed, the worse they sound. Along with some other things taey did in the recent Oklahoma election the citizens of that state defeated an amendment to give the soldiers in the late world war a bonus. The sum of thirty million dollars was. asked and the vote was two to one against it. Ambassadors Harvey at London and Child at Rome have resigned as representatives of the United States in England and Rome. The former w return here the first of the year and the latter has already left his po it is announced. And no body will weep much on cither side of the big waters. Mangus Johnson, senator-elect from Minnesota, a "dirt farmer” is having a regular frolic in New York. Philadelphia and Washington where he is talking some and being interviewed more. And from what he says many have come to the conclusion that he < may have more brains than he has been credited with. Anyway he had enough to win over the old stand pat organization and that’s something. Governor McCray thinks the new tariff law which upset everything for |he farmer and made it much harder for him. is responsible for his smash and he is right at least to some extant. The same thing hit every farmer in the country and if he war out on a limb he got a fall. Now Watson and others are* trying to prove that it was a plain case of < rooked ness and when Moorman answers them, he is called a liar. They are shifting the scenes for the big show next. year. It ought to be good. The Nickel Plate railway of w’n. the Clover L<-af is a branch, has announced the expenditure of eleven million dollars for improvements. It will be fine for those towns who get a portion and we are hoping that Decatur will be one of them and that a now depot, stock yards and other improvements will be < oastructed here. This city is splendidly locat < d for developments on the Nickel Pluto system and the company will have the co-operation of th- people s» of this vi< inity. it’s something new for the president of the United States to do io up • like a clam and refuse to give the reporters a headline for the day. Mr. Coolidge is not only doing that, but those who meet him in conference leave with the same non-tulk attitude, all of which make the people wonder what is going on and when it will happen. That’s fine for a time but after all the uqtion's business is the peoples’ bu itlcss.and they have ;;oui<’ rights to know what is contemplated and after a short time JT this, they -JI d’.tuand it.

Get ready to lay aside ordinary affairs and listen to returns of the world scries in baseball. The Now York Giants and Yanks will fight it out beginning next Wednesday and all over tho country the fans and others who pay but little attention to the great national sport throughout the year will follow the results with keen interest.
