These October snow storms are a little unusual and must have been arranged for by those Florida land sharks who are continually referring to our severe winters. A Fort Wayne woman has filed a divorce suit here and asks SIOO,OOO alimony. That’s fixing a new value on this kind of thing around here. Must be in accordance with the present fast age. A fellow down near Indianapolis bet a mule against twenty-seven roosters on the world series and lost. He ought to have known better than to have opposed the roosters this year. They are going to .crow all the state next Tuesday. Just a couple of more (lays i|ntil elecTlorr. Remember that besides voting you should aid in getting your

friends to go to the polls. We must take an interest in these affairs if we would continue as a progressive and live city. The Stephenson case is attracting considerable attention these days and will for a week or two probably, for every inch of it is to be hard fought, I according to ' indications. The state of Indiana is certainly wasting a lot of time on these law violators. Last minute charges do not count. We have a faint remembrance of something like that occurring on the eve of the election four years ago. We don't believe it will be tried 'this year.

Perhaps some of you old timers can remember winters which started like this one but we haven't. This is the first time we have ever had to sweep Ute snow away before we could sweep the leaves up and before most of the trees have shed their coats. • STICK TO KRICK. While indications are for a democratic victory next Tuesday, there should be no let up on the part of the workers. Keep at it and remember that the biggest job is on election day. You must get out the vote and you must have workers gt the polls. This is a moral city with an excellent police force, excelled by none and equalled by but few municipalities. This is a well protected city in every way with an excellent fire department and good equipment, this is a splendid city of the very first class, with a good tpunicipal plant, going good and making money. Luts keep it that way. Thats wbafthe candidates on 'the democratic ticket stand Tor. The present administration has stood the test. Four years ago they were elected upon a platform of promises. They have kept them.' as .lid the administrations previous to them. They have improved conditions and lowered the tax rate, they have added ' ornamental lights, new

The candidates on the democratic ticket now promise you certain things and we believe they will likewise make good if elected Tuesday. And we believe they wi|l be elected for wo feel sure the people of this city recognise what has been done, is being done -and will be done, that they are satisfied with conditions here and want them continued. As president of the board of works here the past four years, George Krick has proven his ability to serve the city. He knows his duties and will perform them to the satisfaction of every tax payer and citizen. He is honest, efficient, industrious. He knows how to conduct business and he will serve you well. His associates on the ticket are all splendidly qualined and deserve your support. Mrs. Magley is the candidate for treasurer and can take care of that office in a most satisfactory manner; Mrs. Kauffman, candidate for clerk has served four years and his no opposition in this election. The candidates for council are O. L. Vance, Fred Linn. Joe Hunter. George Miller and Fred Ash baucher, good business men w-ho will prove worthy officers. Its a splendid ticket and there is no reason we knoW'bf why you should not vote
