Here's another cool snap to remind you that in a few weeks you will be looking over the coal pile left from last spring. The wish home keepers are getting the fuel bins filled up now for that's the safe way to do it. Governor Jackson plans to reduce state taxes five cents next year and he will still be considerably higher than a few years ago. It will be tine however unless to do it he loads the counties with overhead which should be carried by the state. An Anderson man was fined |2W , for violation of traffic ordinances and ) to pay it was forced to sed his car. , Perhaps if the penalty was the loss of (( your automobile it would help solve . the problem both ways.

After all. how we 1 -serve is th« biggest tiling in life, isn't it? < t The Industrial Association will soon t inaugurate a campaign for the purpose of raising funds for the support 8 .of the various agricultural clubs in 1 Adams county; a worthy cause and one which has attracted the attention g of many cities and counties between Pennsylvania and lowa. Snap into it t boys and feel assured that this splendid community will meet your re- ’ quests for this purpose designed to interest the young people in farm r work and to let the world know that tills is a progressive county along j every line. Morton Hawkins, the Portland bank- I er, son of a rich father and a few J years ago reputed to be worth a mil 1 lion or more, has made affidavit that I all be owns in the world now is the i suit he wears. If that be true it is a sad story. A /decade ago he had a splendid business, originated w'e are told by well informed bankers on a plan that had considerable merit and value. After a few years he discover r cd that his high powered salesmen could dispose of worthless stock f about as easily as they could dividend- J paying stock and the profit being larger he drifted into the game which .. caused his downfall. It doesn't pay ; to graft off the public for sooner or I later you have to pay and that's just 1 where Mort is now. He could have ’ been sitting on top of the world had he refused to be. lured by the vision , of easy money. i — \ The Findlay business men who were here again yesterday to boost the first organization meeting of the Penn highway association to be held at Findlay.

We can well afford to devote some effort to such a cause as that and Decatur representatives who will attend this first meeting, will we are sure bring home a good account of action. Good roads in the future will mean as much and perhaps more than railways and those cities which get bp on their toes now and go after these main routes will be the real points of interest and business after while. Millions have talked for peace as against war, many have tried to do something towards that end, a few have really done some things that war might be tabooed but William Jennings Bryan without receiving much credit for it probably did more than any other person of his time. During the period he served as secretary ol state he signed thirty treaties with various nations of the world, each providing that if a question arose which might ’perclpitatc a war it is agreed that these nations and the United States shall wait nine months before beginning hostilities. That should give ample time to cool off and perhaps arrange things so the war .could be averted. The treaties were approved by President Wilson and the United Stales senate, almost without a dissenting vote. And you never heard Mr. Bryan boast of the achievement or try to commercialize or use it for political advantage, further proof of his greatness. —— o- * ♦ ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ ♦ — ♦ ♦ From the Daily Democrat file ♦ k Twenty years ago thia day ♦ e ♦

When our hearts with grief were stirred. Thus we prayed and thus were heard. Shall we fail to keep our word? Was our promise all in va'n? Would we call her back again Just to spare ourselves the pain? We am hurt. oh. that is tftte! Desolate ami lonely, too, Sulfering as wc pledged to do. Lovely now her life shall be Safe througli all eternity Always beautiful to see; Now the pain is ours to know. But we prayed to bear this blow That she need not stiffer so.

The People’s Voice THE NORTHERN INDIANA FAIR It is now time that our fair should be the topic of thought and conversation throughout this community, by every one living near enough to reach It. Let every person make up his mind now that he is going, and become boosters of the event, and it will .boonu Fair- week is an anniversary as its exhibitions are an annual event. This makes it a time when former eftaens can best return to their old home and visit the scenes of earlier years, because they can then most easily see and mingle with their relatives and friends of the past and their descendents. To make these periodic returns is a good habit. and every one who has changed his residence from hie community should get ft Let our fair week become the old home week and come here and have an anniversary week with your former associates. This year let's enlarge this practice. Every former resident of this community who returns to his home is invited to atend this fair and celebrate his return on the fair grounds. Cultivate the idea of meeting the sons and daughters of the surrounding community, as well as seeing again, at feast once a year, the faces of those who have become transient. The fhmily that Is tired With the work and heat of summer should use the week of the fair as a time for a picnic outing and make each day a holiday.

Often as we jvatched her there From our lips there fell this prayer: "God, give us the pain to bear! us suffer in her place. Take the anguish from her face. Soothe her with Thy holy grace."

All can ( turn from the care and confinements ( of a life of foil to the bright sunshine ( of Bellmont Park, enjoy its scenes , and lessons interspersed with amuse- ( mont and thus find the highest class of recreation.

People are always busy if thrifty, but never so exceedingly so at this time of the year, that they cannot lay off and Ro to the fair if they properly r I plan it ahead.

FAIR BOOSTER, J SEND CONDOLENCE -t I, Resolutions Os Condolence Forwarda ed Today To Mrs. W. J. Bryan By e Indiana Democratic Club. e Indianapolis, July 28—Resolutions of e condolence were to be forwarded toa day to the widow of William Jennings a Bryan by the Indiana Democratic club n and a committee of Hoosier demo- -- cratic leaders, headed by Senator •t Samuel M. Ralston. it The Indiana Anti-Saloon league and ;e several other state organizations also d adopted resolutions of sympathy.
BRYAN’S SPIRIT TAKES UP BATTLE IN MIDST, OF WHICH HE DIED< — — < from P»«« On«) 1 flame of sarcasm »K« ln burns a speech attacks and ridicules Ui« ;] gram purporting to <-»«* the family tree” of the human race and classify | dug each species of Uvlng thing according to the teachings of evolution.) ••It might require some very nleoj calculation.” the speech read. "to < determine at what deree of relationK l,tp the killing of a rotative ceases to be murder and the eating of ones kin ceases to be cannibalism. ■ Evolutionists do not feel It is incumbent upon them to show how Wfe began. "ho said. "GM W*» matter of Indifference to the evolutionists and a lIW beyond have no charm for them, but the mass of man kind will continue to worship their i Creator and find comfort in the, promise of their saviour that He has ono to prepare a place for them Five “indictments” are then brought against evolution. First—That it disputes the truth of the Bible account of man's crea-, tion and shakes faith in the Bible as tbc word of God. Second—That evolution "disputes every vital truth in the Bible" and •Its natural if not inevitable" tendency “ is to lead those who really | accept it, first to agnosticism and then to atheism.” In support of this Indictment he launched into a long discussion of the Ixteb-Leopold case, in which vase Clarence Darrow was the attor-| nev for the accused murderers of. ■•Bobby" Franks. He quotes at length] from Darrow's speech in defense of Loeb and Leopold- wherein Darrow irgtied that Leopold was the victim of the philosophy of Nitzscbc. made nailable to him when he was yet lon young to guard against its dangerous teachings of the 'superman' who is above the law.” He became more bitter when he took up the defense of Loeb—that Loeb was the victim of some hereditary taint handed down “by some remote ancestor.” “This is the quintessence of evolution distilled for us by one who fol lows that doctrine Io its logical con elusion,” the speech mads. "Analyze this dogma of darkness and death. Evolutionists say that back in the twilight of life a boast, name and nature unknown, planted a murderous seed and that the impulse that originated.in that seed throbs forever in the blood of the brute's descend ant, inspiring killings innumerable, (or which the murderers are not responsible because coerced by a fate fixed by the laws of heredity. “It is an insult to mason and shocks the h<*art. That doctrine is as deadly as leprosy.” Thirdt — "diverts the attention from pressing problems of great importance to trifling speculation. While one eVoltittonlst is trying to imagine wbat happened in the past, another is trying to pry open the door of the distant future. One recently grew eloquent over andient worms and another predicted that seventy-five thousand years licncc everyone’ will ho bald and toothless. But those who endeavor to clothe our remote ancestofs with hair and those whose endeavor is to remove the hair from the heads of our remote descendants ignore the present with its imperative demands. •'The science of ‘how to live is the most important of all sciences. Chris tians desire that their children -shall be taught all the sciences but they do not want them to lose sight of the Rock of Ages while they study the age of rocks.” Fourth — Evolution by "paralyzing the hope of reform, discourages those who labor for the improvement of man's condition. Evolution chills that enthusiasm by substituting aeons for years. It Obscures all beginnings in the mists of the endless ages. Evolution, disputing the miracle and ignoring the spitittial life, has no place for tho regeneration of the individual. “It is because Christians believe in individual regeneration and in the regeneration of society through the regeneration of individuals that they pray ‘Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Evolution makes a mockery of the lord’s Prayer. To interpret the words to mean that the improvement desired must come slowly througli unfolding ages—a process with which each generation could have time to do —is to defer hope and hope deferred inaketh the heart sick.” Fifth—Eevlution, “if taken seriously and made the basis of a philosophy of life, would eliminate love and carry men back to a struggle of tooth and claw.” In support of this he quotes Darwin's discussion of the survival of the fittest among animals and declares that such a struggle as there described — whereby the weak are eliminated by the power of the strong —would be the result of “the bar-
