A number of democratic governors who attended the meeting at West Baden this week declared for Ralston for president and there is no doubt the boom is reaching a point where the distinguished Indiana statesman will have to listen to the appeal from his friends. Bootleggers evidently are of the opinion that officials would never think of looking in such a place stored a large quantity of bonded whiskey in the basement of a church at Findlay. Ohio. The liquor was seized and now the polite are looking the elders over for a < lue. In two polls conducted by Collier’s, Senator Ralston is an "odds-on" favorite for the democratic nomination for president while .Mr. Coolidge leads the republicans. And it may be a , true reading of the signs. Mr. McAdoo is probably the strongest candidate now but the signs point to a rush for Ralston when the time comes. Busines- interests and the k:i klux klan are trying to force Governor Walter M. Pierce out of office as governor of Oregon. This business of “getting the governor’’ seems to be a sort of epidemic now with similar efforts being made for one cause or another in Oklahoma and Indiana also. Most people agree with Mr. Edison who declared yesterday that to put Henry Ford in the White House would be spoiling a good man and that he ought to stay just where lie is. Edison also adds that automatic machinery, will in a few years, bring a four-hour working day, which we hope is a poor guess, for it provides too many idle hours, always destructive rather than constructive. Senator Smoot declares that a reduction of >200,000,000 could be made in federal taxes on incomes of from >2,000 to slo,ooo but advises Secretary Mellon that while this is true he had better not get into it as the present laws are bringing in enough money and evidently he don’t care for the nasty time which always comes with a tax law. That’s certainly a cowardly way to look at the thing for the reduction he admits is possible, is just the one needed in this country, right now. The Legion meeting at San Fran-i cisco is “tied up" with a ku klux; light, the special session it» Oklahoma I is having stormy sessions over the' mysterious invisible government. Oregon has an ugly battle on the klan, five hundred citizens in Indiana, many of them prominent, are summoned to Indianapolis to atteud a trial against the klan. The papers arc full of similar affairs. What we don’t understand is what’s the good of it all aud what do they hope to accomplish by creating a campaign of hate in peace loving America? Edward C. Toner, editor aud publisher of the Anderson Herald, is the first republican to hurl his hat into the ring as a candidate for governor. He is a „ood felloe a fcr.t rate te.-.st-

paper man and has had cottsldetsMe experience In politic* aa a bull moos* leader in this district and * candidate for governor four year* ago. He is, by announcing just now as n candi- . date, displaying a lot of nerve that r ought to attract attention. With the ’ "stew” in affairs at Indianapolis at r its climax, Ed takes the “bull by the horns" and declares he is strong enough to throw it. Aud that’s that. s 3 Fort Wayne, South Bend and Misha- ■* waka get a substantial reduction in 3 j gas rates but may we ask just what 5 benefit that is to Decatur? The Fort ’ Wayne rate has always been conI tide; ably lower than here which is . pet h ips necessary but now we can’t see why, if a twenty per cent reduction can be made on operations there, why the same thing should not apply here. We have been hoping this action would come voluntarily and without any action or petition from the people which is as sure to follow now | as one season follows another. It’s just as easy to smile As it is to frown—if you try. It’s just as eas yto laugh. As it is to fret and cry. It’s just as easy to laugh, As it is to complain and knock. And it’s easier to give a flower Than it is to throw a rock. Q Healthy Children.

WHY YOUR DOCTOR ADVISES TONIC AT THIS TIME OF YEAR There arc lots of peonle who seldom really feel their best at this time of year.
