The mayor of Hamilton, Illinois, was fined SI,OOO for the possession of eight barrels of liquor and three kegs of wine. It docs -look a little unreasonable that one man should have that much on hands these days and then be in a position to punish others who have a pint or a quart. Fhrmers are reminded that right now is the time to secure seed corn for next spring. Go out in your field and select the very best ears and there are plenty of them, hang them in a dry place end by spring you will, have excellent seed, thhs avoiding a fancy price and assuring the Tight kind of a corn crop next year. Indiana motorists paid nearly seven million dollars in gasoline tax during the year which ended September 30. Tita’s a lot of money, paid in cash ami in advance for better roads and the people have a right to efpect much from those in whose hands the authority to act is placed. Roads shctild be built and maintained at the lowest cost, but with the best results. If you could have attended all or a pat t of the school events yesterday, given as a reminder of the work of Mrs. Gene gl racon-Porter, you would have been thrilled' by the interest of the pupils. young and old, and their knowledge of the idea to stimulate the study of those things in which this woman spent her life. It was fine and it was conclusive evidence that the movement for an Adams county Memorial will go over big. Plans are going ahead for the organization of an Adams county company to purchase Bellmont Park and operate an agricultural fair. A meeting of those from over flic county who are interested will probably be held during the next few days and plans made for extending invitations to all who desire‘to help put over this big and important affair. If we •will take a proper interest and boost the fair along we can put old Adams county on the may with a whoop, all have a good time and profit proportionately to our efforts. Tlie democratic candidates for city irffices will make their campaign upon the records of the three last admin fct rat ions, each of which lias shown progress, care aud wisdom, in conducting the affairs of Decatur in such manner as to do the most with the least amount of money raised in taxes. The financial condition of the city is splendid and the improvements have been many. We are going forward and without a great burden to any citizen. Surely that is what you want aud what you will continue to have. We congratulate the members and pastor, the school principal and the trustees of St. Peter's Evangelical Lutheran church in Root township for having reached the eightieth anniversary of that congregation aud we are sure that the observance of that event tomorrow will be enjoyable, of much good to the community and the church, n wonderful occasion. Rev A. Moeller and Prof. Paul Dorn ye deserving cf praise tor their uutiriug and unselfish efforts.

Its one of the tnost important projects which this county has had the opportunity to assist and those cities and towns Avliich have a place on the map along the great coast to coast route will appreciate the work now being done by those in charge, after it has become one of the leading thoroughw fares of the nation, as it is sure to be. As was expected, the price of corn and bogs is dropping now when the fanner is getting ready to market bis annual crop. 'Tuas also thus and always will be unless seme one can conceive a plan which will head off the stock gambler and those who for one reason or another desire to pound down the market price when it pleases them and boost it after the crop is out of the hands of the men who did the work. Its unfair business and there should be- away to prevent it and by that we do not mean by legislation for the more laws we have, the more difficult it is to do business. The farmer has gone through several serious years and he deserves to sell his 1925 crop at a profit.') If he does, times will immediately improve for that means a distribution of a large sum of money to the merchants and to ("he people generally. We insist that genuine good times will never be restored in America until the farmer is permitted to earn actual profits and that means he must sell his product for more money than he did ten years ago because his expenses have increased with the times, the same as yours have.

and maintaining the organization must , be something enormous. Many local people have seen "Sally” during its New York run and in Fort Wayne two years ago and they have verbally spread the information as to the charm and beauty of the production. The piece has been embellished until it surpasses any musical comedy in American theatrical history in the way of scenery, costumes and beautiful women. And there is comedy in abun- ' lance which excites legitimate laugh-

ter and the only drawback is that there ’s so much to view one can scarcely •rasp it all in one sitting. The Butterfly Ballet in the last act is one of the most gorgeous imaginable, its lieautiful music was composed by Victor Herbert.' The book of “Sally" is. by Guy Bolton; the lyrics are by Clifford Grey and the music by Jerome Kern; it was staged by Edward Royce. Sev-enty-five people are required for its presentation, with a special orchestra to render its tuneful aong hit?, while two of the largest baggage ctfrs obtainable are required for transports lion. k.
