Help save the beets, «— ■ ' 'M Charley Schwab, the steel king, favors the Ben Franklin road and will assist in securing federal aid for this important coast-to-coast highway, and don’t forget that Charley has power. Every man and boy in the county can well afford a day ur two to helping the farmers get the beets out. If ik isn't done during the next ten days It may be too late and it means hundreds of thousands of dollars to this county. Save the fteets. Its important for those farmers who have spent months in securing a crop and which is lost unless they can get them out of the ground during the next few days. Whatever is necessary to do this should be done by the people of the ' county. , Indiana Democrats will meet at 1 Indianapolis, Thursday, to discuss plans for the 1926 campaign. State 1 Chairman Chambers has sent letters 1 to workers over the state urging attendance and the necessity of an air- ‘ tight organization and a ticket composed of "go-getting’’ candidates. ; The session should be an interesting J one. ■ 1 The annual campaign for the Red j Cross fund is now on and it should I make* you happy to have the opportunity to help along this cause. This t is the greatest organization of its 1 kind in America or in the world. It < works when the clouds are the darkest and it I 'doesn't stop to consider ] creed or color. To keep it going requires many thousands of dollars and < as good Christian citizens we should J all pay our dollar dues. This is a good week to advertise your goods Mr. Merchant. Step on the gas, wake up, let the folks know you have things to sell. Wise advertising is the most necessary thing in your business and no one who has tried it will deny th v advantages, We reach every part of the county daily and you can send your message to the* people at a low cost. Sturt in now. The Adams County Agricultural Association will be a very important part of this community. Its members will compose the very best citizens of every part of the county and each township will be represented in the board of managers. Those back of it are trying their best to dodge mistakes made by other counties and to make this one of greatest benefit to all. The stock is being readily subscribed for and interest is being manifested in every section. Earl Gentry, the man Who rode With Stephenson in the stateroom the night they took Miss Obcrhollzcr to Hammond and who was his right hand man in all activities, declared after the verdict was returned Saturday evening: "I don't see why they attack Steve and let me go,” and neither do a lot of folks. He is to be tried for arson next and perhaps the jury will look at it the same way he doesAmerican Education Week starts today and throughout the schools of Adams county the children will be instructed on such subjects as constitution. the flag, the school and what it means, conservation and thrift and wT.it school day mean:,.

D. C. Stephenson who claimed to be “the law” in Indiana and who unquestionably did at one time have great power, was found guilty of murder in the second degree and given life imprisonment by the Hamilton connty jury which returned a verdict Saturday evening. Its a mighty fall, but Is further profit that one can go just so far with this "high and mighty” stuff and even then had better watch his step. The law does not provide that any one can do wrong things and go free, it gives to no man the right to commit arson, rape or murder and still hold his head up. Stephenson says he has just begun to fight but he will find few to support him in his claims that he should be free because of any mysterious power he may feel he has and as time slips by he may be sur-| prised at the attitude of supposed ! friends. It has been a nasty case I and most people will be glad it is over.
