Did you file your income tax report? Oil well, if you didn't you w ill be called on the carpet in due time and permitted to pay a double tax or go to jail. Taxes you know is one of the two or three things which are sure qnd “sartin.” Goshen has not changed according to a wet and dry newspaper pail there. The vote was three to one that the present laws not be changed. However, reports from the larger cities show a continued vote in favor of modification. Oswald Ryan, a republican candidate for Robinson’s seat in the senate made a speech in Buffalo Saturday n ght. Now what do you suppose this Indiana statesman is galavanting around over there in Al Smith’s territory for? Perhaps he is trying to put < one over on Governor Jackson for that vice-presidential nomination. Democrats of the Eighth district will meet at Muncie on the evening of March 25th and the program in- j eludes addresses by many of the candidates for various offices. It will be one of the first meetings in this section of the state and will show the interest in the coming campaign. Mr. Fleming, district chairman is urging that a delegation of twenty-five or more attend from this county and we predict he will not be disappointed. The weather man is again promising better weather and perhaps in a few days we can begin thinking about the spring clean-up. At this time of the year the average town or city looks like the boy who comes to the table with his hair all tousled and it is. Both need combing. For twenty years Decatur lias had a thorough cleaning each spring and We are . assured by the city officials that this is to be no exception. Lets do it better than ever for its the very best advertisement the town can have. The Decatur Commodores have gone to Chicago. They will practice tomorrow on the floor of Loyola and should be in fine condition for their I I first game on Friday afternoon. The pep meeting her e was enthusiastic and the boys left with the best wishes, hopes and expectations and with firm | determination to go as far as they i can in the big national scrap in which they made such a splendid record last year. Senator Edge, of New Jersey, favors a national referendum vote to I ascertain whether the people have changed their minds on the prohibition question. He declares they have and offers as evidence the polls taken by newspapers over the country. Another development in the battle which is daily gaining speed was the suggestion by Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Andrews that the bootleggers be made to pay internal revenue to pay the expenses of enforcement. Neither proposition will probably get far at this time. The fair and. Chautauqua will be held during the same week this year, the first week of September. To change either would be an inconvenience and it has therefore been decided to boost both of these important events. Why not? Os course we can put them both over —BIG. Each will have a drawing power and if proper effort is made there is U<4

Harting, president of the Chautauqua organization to help one another, a fine spirit which should 'have the support of every one in the iconimuuity. A Canadian engineer has discovered and worked out the plan for a sixth Great Lake, which he says will be as large as Lake Michigan. The proposed site is in Ontario and the improvement would cost two hundred million dollars, the engineer estimates. Thats a lot of money and we don’t yet understand where It will come from unless the big business men decide the new lake would benefit some particular industry or industries. The argument is that it would raise th e level of all the other five Great Lakes and dispose of Chicago’s water shortage. Any way it would be a new fishing territqfy and thats worth something. Look what Florida has done. A fede/al grand jury at Cleveland has returned indictments against 'more than a hundred people living in cities all over the country and charging them with conspiracy to break the dry law. The indictments tell a story stranger than fiction, that the , men in the conspiracy, some of them rich, a number of them federal officials, others of more or less renown and still a few of the ordinary type ,of bootlegger, secured nearly three hundred cars of pure gin from the government distilleries, at fifty cents per gallon, converted each gallon into fifteen or twenty and sold it at from three dollars up to fifteen, making a profit of millions. Th e results are difficult to forecast for men who could pull such a job are of course influential, but the facts remain that from some where millions of gallons ,of gin have beeu coming and this law-suit in a federal court may produce some real spicy evidence.
